Physicians often face challenges in identifying diseases through images of individuals with darker skin tones.

A study conducted by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) researchers has revealed that physicians are less adept at diagnosing skin diseases in patients with darker skin, solely based on image analysis. This disparity was revealed in a study that involved over 1,000 dermatologists and general practitioners. The accuracy of dermatologists in characterizing images of darker…

A novel approach to AI successfully encapsulates ambiguity present in medical imagery.

In the field of biomedicine, segmentation refers to the process of highlighting important structures in a medical image, from organs to cells. Artificial intelligence (AI) models are starting to play a pivotal role in this task, but there are limitations with most existing models, mainly due to the fact that they are unable to factor…

A novel Artificial Intelligence technique records ambiguity within medical imaging.

A team at MIT, along with the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, and Massachusetts General Hospital, has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that can help navigate the uncertainty in medical image analysis. The tool, named Tyche, provides multiple possible interpretations of a medical image rather than the single answer typically provided by AI…

The automated platform instructs users on the appropriate instances to engage with an AI assistant.

Researchers at MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab have developed an AI system designed to educate users on when to trust an AI's decision-making process - for instance, a radiologist determining if a patient's X-ray shows signs of pneumonia. The training system identifies scenarios where the human should not trust the AI model, automatically…

The automated platform instructs users about the appropriate time to partner with an AI assistant.

Researchers at MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab have developed a system that teaches users when to trust AI and when to ignore it, and it has already led to an approximately 5% increase in accuracy during image prediction tasks. The researchers designed a customised onboarding process, which is when the user is familiarized…

The automated system educates users on the appropriate times to partner with an AI assistant.

Researchers from MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab have developed a system that instructs users when to trust an AI system’s decision-making. In medicine, there might be instances like a radiologist using an AI model for reading X-rays where human intervention can make a difference. However, clinicians are uncertain whether to lean on the…

The automated system instructs users on the appropriate times to engage with an AI assistant.

Researchers at MIT and the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab have developed a system that trains users on when to trust an AI model's advice. This automated system essentially creates an onboarding process based on a specific task performed by a human and an AI model. It then uses this data to develop training exercises, helping…
