Predicting Infections in Preterm Infants with Thermal Imaging Technology

Neonatal sepsis is a dangerous non-specific disease in babies, especially neonate/newborns. It is one of the leading causes of neonate mortality rate, because of the difficulty to diagnose, leading to late or false treatment. Previous research has found the promising feature of artificial intelligence or machine learning in solving the problem....
