Popis: In this study, a deep multi-layered group method of data handling (GMDH)-type neural network is applied to the medical image analysis of the abdominal X-ray computed tomography (CT) images. The deep neural network architecture which has many hidden layers are automatically organized using the deep multi-layered GMDH-type neural network algorithm so as to minimize the prediction error criterion defined as Akaike’s information criterion (AIC) or prediction sum of squares (PSS). The characteristics of the medical images are very complex and therefore the deep neural network architecture is very useful for the medical image diagnosis and medical image recognition. In this study, it is shown that this deep multi-layered GMDH-type neural network is useful for the medical image analysis of abdominal X-ray CT images.
