Artificial Intelligence Strategies for Brain Tumor Diagnosis: Postoperative Analysis presents the latest advances in Artificial Intelligence applied to clinical diagnosis and treatment of Brain Tumors. Advances in the role of segmentation, classification, and postoperative analysis are covered, including relevant case studies. For patients with a brain tumor, the first step in treatment is often surgery to remove as much of the mass as possible. A tumor sample obtained and analyzed during surgery can help to precisely diagnose the tumor and define the margins between tumor and healthy brain tissue. In this book, the authors present an overview of different Artificial Intelligent techniques used in the brain care domain including classification, segmentation, organizational preparation, postoperative analysis, and predictive methods. Furthermore, the authors provide a thorough description of recent classification methods based on brain connectivity. Taking into account recent developments and the rapidly growing potential of the field, the authors discuss how AI might transform brain care in the near and long term, identifying open issues and promising directions for future work. Artificial Intelligence Strategies for Brain Tumor Diagnosis: Postoperative Analysis includes three Parts: Brain Tumor Segmentation, Brain Tumor Classification, and Postoperative Analysis of Brain Tumors.

Theory and Methods of Piecewise Defined Fractional Operators

  • 1st Edition
  • December 1, 2026
  • Abdon Atangana + 1 more
  • English
Theory and Methods of Piecewise Defined Fractional Operators introduces new mathematical methods to derive complex modeling solutions with stability, consistency, and convergence. These tools include new types of non-local derivatives and integrals, such as fractal-fractional derivatives and integrals. Drs. Atangana and Araz present the theoretical and numerical analyses of the newly introduced piecewise differential and integral operators where crossover behaviors are observed, as well as their applications to real-world problems. The book contains foundational concepts that will help readers better understand piecewise differential and integral calculus and their applications to modeling processes with crossover behaviors. Several Cauchy problems with piecewise differential operators are considered, and their existence and uniqueness under some conditions are presented; in particular, the Carathéodory principle is used to ensure the existence and uniqueness of these new Cauchy problems. New numerical schemes are introduced to derive numerical solutions to these new equations, and the stability, consistency, and convergence analysis of these new numerical approaches are also presented.

Epidemiological Modeling with Application to Covid-19 presents information about statistical, numerical, stability, and theoretical analyses for nine different Covid-19 models. Those models are considered with classical and fractional derivatives, which is a generalization of the classical analysis. The authors present their newly introduced rate indicator function for the prediction of the waves of Covid-19 spread. Moreover, future prediction of Covid-19 spread is presented for some countries. The authors also provide a new approach to modeling epidemiological issues in general, which has been tested against the spread of COVID-19 in several nations.This book provides in-depth analysis of the spread of Covid-19, including discussion of theoretical and numerical results, including a novel modeling method called strength numbers that was created under the umbrella of acceleration, which provides a determiner of the power of disease spread. These significant characteristics might be the key to understanding and anticipating the spread of infections and diseases more generally.
