Popis: | Artificial Intelligence is set to revolutionize multiple fields in the coming years. One subset of AI, machine learning, shows immense potential for application in a diverse set of medical specialties, including diagnostic pathology. In this study, we investigate the utility of the Apple Create ML and Google Cloud Auto ML, two machine learning platforms, in a variety of pathological scenarios involving lung and colon pathology. First, we evaluate the ability of the platforms to differentiate normal lung tissue from cancerous lung tissue. Also, the ability to accurately distinguish two subtypes of lung cancer (adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma) is examined and compared. Similarly, the ability of the two programs to differentiate colon adenocarcinoma from normal colon is assessed as is done with lung tissue. Also, cases of colon adenocarcinoma are evaluated for the presence or absence of a specific gene mutation known as KRAS. Finally, our last experiment examines the ability of the Apple and Google platforms to differentiate between adenocarcinomas of lung origin versus colon origin. In our trained models for lung and colon cancer diagnosis, both Apple and Google machine learning algorithms performed very well individually and with no statistically significant differences found between the two platforms. However, some critical factors set them apart. Apple Create ML can be used on local computers but is limited to an Apple ecosystem. Google Auto ML is not platform specific but runs only in Google Cloud with associated computational fees. In the end, both are excellent machine learning tools that have great potential in the field of diagnostic pathology, and which one to choose would depend on personal preference, programming experience, and available storage space.
