Ms. Marwa Salih Ramadhan and Prof. Dr. Ahmed Khorsheed, ECE Department/ College of Engineering/ University of Duhok Kurdistan Region, Iraq

ABSTRACT

Lung cancer is considered as the deadliest type of cancers worldwide . The possibilities of a patient’s survival can only be increased by early detection . It can be argued that Deep learning (DL) is an effective aid to classify lung nodules accurately based CT scan images .This paper aims to review different studies published from 2020 to 2024, that related to DL techniques to identify any malignant lung nodules in lung image through CT scan. The method of this paper is comparative analysis among different studies based on some performance matrices to identify the most accurate DL technique for detecting and classifying lung nodules. Eventually, this paper indicated that the most accurate technique for classifying is still up for debate. However, most reviewed studies showed that hybrid deep learning techniques-based CNN and RNN have proved a significant level of accuracy . Based on the comparative analysis conducted in this paper it can be seen that the GAN-RNN is the best classifier for lung nodules .It can be recommended that this classifier may be evaluated on larger data sets, to diagnose more tumor types. Furthermore, the complexity of the GAN-RNN can be reduced, and so the classifier can be implemented as a real-time clinical application.

A User-friendly and Ai-based Mobile Application to Assist in Trip Planning Using Large Language Models

Ka Ling Gou1, Tongchen He2/sup>, 1Orange County School of the Arts, 1010 N Main St, Santa Ana, CA 92701, 2Computer Science Department, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, CA 91768

ABSTRACT

This paper introduces the Utrip app, explaining various functions and the codes involved in this app. We solved problems like music recommendations and AI chatbox, making sure that they ran without getting errors [1]. So, the user can use it to enhance their travel experience. One of the problems that we encounter is that the GPT model we used does not naturally return a JSON format for our app to read [2]. Therefore, we need to engineer our prompt to specifically ask for a response in a designated JSON format, and parse the response string to convert it to JSON. In our experiment, we tested out the rate of error while using different prompt formats for the GPT model [3]. We found out that the prompt that specifies a JSON format in English words is the best. We also compared our app to ones made by others. Our app allows users to create their own travel plans, and the AI chatbox provides suitable suggestions based on real-time scenarios.
