Article BrAIn: A Comprehensive Artificial Intelligence-Based Morphology Analysis System for Brain Organoids and Neuroscience(Wiley, 2026-03-12) Polatli, Elifsu; Guner, Huseyin; Bastanlar, Yalin; Karakulah, Gokhan; Evranos, Ali Eren; Kahveci, Burak; Guven, SinanHuman-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offer transformative potential for biomedical research, with iPSC-derived organoids providing more physiologically relevant models than traditional 2D cell cultures. Among these, brain organoids (BO) are particularly valuable for drug screening, disease modeling, and investigations into molecular pathways. Accurate representation of brain morphology is critical, as more complex organoid structures better mimic the human brain. Deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) approaches have become integral to analyzing organoid morphology, yet tools for comprehensive, time-resolved assessments are scarce. Here, we introduce BrAIn, a DL-based application for analyzing the developmental progression of BOs. BrAIn tracks their evolution from embryoid bodies (EBs) and quantifies parameters including area, Feret diameter, perimeter, roundness, and circularity. It also classifies budding and abnormal morphologies of 3D organoids and detects monolayer neural rosette structures, key features of neuronal differentiation. Designed with accessibility in mind, BrAIn provides a no-code interface, enabling researchers of all technical backgrounds to conduct advanced morphological analyses with ease. Our study demonstrates the application of BrAIn to evaluate the effects of different growth conditions-static, orbital shaker, and microfluidic chip-based-on BO development. Orbital shaker cultures resulted in the largest organoids, while chip-based systems achieved more homogeneous growth. Both conditions produced organoids with greater morphological complexity compared to static culture. BrAIn emerges as a robust, user-friendly tool to quantify BO development and explore how versatile growth conditions influence their morphology and maturation.Article Deep-Learning Detection of Open-Apex Teeth on Panoramic Radiographs Using YOLO Models(Springer, 2025-12-23) Edik, Merve; Celebi, Fatma; Cukurluoglu, AykaganObjectivesThe use of deep learning in detecting teeth with open apices can prevent the need for additional radiographs for patients. The presented study aims to detect open-apex teeth using You Only Look Once (YOLO)-based deep learning models and compare these models.MethodsA total of 966 panoramic radiographs were included in the study. Open-apex teeth in panoramic radiographs were labeled. During the labeling process, they were divided into 6 classes in the maxilla and mandible, namely incisors, premolars, and molars. AI models YOLOv3, YOLOv4, and YOLOv5 were used. To evaluate the performance of the three detection models, both overall and separately for each class in the test dataset, precision, recall, average precision (mAP), and F1 score were calculated.ResultsYOLOv4 achieved the highest overall performance with a mean average precision (mAP) of 87.84% at IoU (Intersection over Union) 0.5 (mAP@0.5), followed by YOLOv5 with 85.6%, and YOLOv3 with 84.46%. Regarding recall, YOLOv4 also led with 90%, while both YOLOv3 and YOLOv5 reached 89%. Moreover, the F1 score was the highest for YOLOv4 (0.87), followed by YOLOv3 (0.86) and YOLOv5 (0.85).ConclusionsIn this study, YOLOv3, YOLOv4, and YOLOv5 were evaluated for the detection of open-apex teeth, and their mAP, recall, and F1 scores exceeded 84%. Deep learning-based systems can provide faster and more accurate results in the detection of open-apex teeth. This may help reduce the need for additional radiographs from patients and aid dentists by saving time.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Prediction of the Diffusible Hydrogen Concentration After Electrochemical Charging Utilizing Artificial Intelligence(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2025-09-01) Sivesoglu, Abdurrahman; Li, Yang; Bal, BurakThe concentration of diffusible hydrogen in a material is of high importance as it helps to predict the hydrogen embrittlement effect in the material, and the amount of mechanical properties' degradation after reaching a critical concentration. Despite that, a simple experimental setup is not available to measure hydrogen concentration at service. In this paper, a multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model is developed using weight initialization, which can estimate the diffusible hydrogen concentration of Face-Centred-Cubic (FCC) metals after electrochemical charging. The input properties of the model include the electrochemical charging parameters of current density, temperature, and charging time as well as the grain size of the specimen. The MLP model with and without the weight initialization was validated and tested with unseen test dataset. The model in both cases showed an excellent predictive performance with a higher accuracy and faster convergence when using weight initialization. A linear correlation of 89% between the experimental and predicted hydrogen concentration was observed. This demonstrates that for the family of FCC metals under electrochemical charging, the estimation of diffusible hydrogen concentration is a feasible path for material safety design analysis.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 13The Impact and Future of Artificial Intelligence in Medical Genetics and Molecular Medicine: An Ongoing Revolution(Springer Heidelberg, 2024-08) Ozcelik, Firat; Dundar, Mehmet Sait; Yildirim, A.

Spectral features, together with demographic variables (age, sex) and structural parameters (cortical porosity, volumetric bone mineral density), were fed into support vector regression (SVR), extreme tree regression (ETR), extreme gradient boosting (XGB), and ensemble models to predict fracture-toughness metrics such as crack-initiation toughness (Kinit) and energy-to-fracture (J-integral). Feature selection was based on Raman-derived mineral and organic matrix parameters, such as nu 1Phosphate (PO4)/CH2-wag, nu 1PO4/ Amide I, and others, to capture the complex composition of bone. Our results indicate that ensemble models consistently outperformed individual models, with the best performance for crack initiation toughness (Kinit) prediction being achieved using the ensemble approach. This yielded a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.623, root-mean squared error (RMSE) of 1.320, mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.015, and mean percentage absolute error (MAPE) of 0.134. For prediction of the overall energy to propagate a crack (J-integral), the XGB model achieved an R2 of 0.737, RMSE of 2.634, MAE of 2.283, and MAPE of 0.240. This study highlights the importance of incorporating mineral quality properties (MP) and organic matrix properties (OMP) for enhanced prediction accuracy. This work represents the first-ever study combining Raman spectroscopy with other clinical and structural features to predict fracture toughness of human cortical bone, demonstrating the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) and ML in advancing bone research. Future studies could focus on larger datasets and more advanced modeling techniques to further improve predictive capabilities.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Is Artificial Intelligence a Trustworthy Route Navigation System for Smart Urban Planning(Univ Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Centrul Studii Europene, 2024) Kourtit, Karima; Nijkamp, Peter; Osth, John; Turk, UmutIn the age of smart or intelligent cities, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents a spectrum of new opportunities and challenges for both the research and policy community. The present study explores the intricate interplay between AI-generated content and actual choice spectra in urban planning. It focuses on the concept of 'city intelligence' and related AI concepts, underscoring the pivotal role of AI in addressing and understanding the quality of life in contemporary urban environments. As AI continues its transformative impact on communication and information systems in the realm of urban planning, this study brings to the forefront key insights into the challenges of validating AI-based information. Given the inherently subjective nature of AIgenerated content, and its influential role in shaping user-perceived value, AI will most likely be a game changer catalyzing enhancements in the urban quality of life and inducing favorable urban developments. Additionally, the study also addresses the significance of the so-called 'Garbage-in Garbage-out' (GiGo) principle and 'Bullshitin Bullshit out' (BiBo) principle in validating AI-generated content, and seeks to enhance our understanding of the spatial information landscape in urban planning by introducing the notion of an urban X'XQ' performance production function.Article Citation - WoS: 130Citation - Scopus: 218AI-Based Fog and Edge Computing: A Systematic Review, Taxonomy and Future Directions(Elsevier, 2023-04) Iftikhar, Sundas; Gill, Sukhpal Singh; Song, Chenghao; Xu, Minxian; Aslanpour, Mohammad Sadegh; Toosi, Adel N.; Uhlig, SteveResource management in computing is a very challenging problem that involves making sequential decisions. Resource limitations, resource heterogeneity, dynamic and diverse nature of workload, and the unpredictability of fog/edge computing environments have made resource management even more challenging to be considered in the fog landscape. Recently Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) based solutions are adopted to solve this problem. AI/ML methods with the capability to make sequential decisions like reinforcement learning seem most promising for these type of problems. But these algorithms come with their own challenges such as high variance, explainability, and online training. The continuously changing fog/edge environment dynamics require solutions that learn online, adopting changing computing environment. In this paper, we used standard review methodology to conduct this Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to analyze the role of AI/ML algorithms and the challenges in the applicability of these algorithms for resource management in fog/edge computing environments. Further, various machine learning, deep learning and reinforcement learning techniques for edge AI management have been discussed. Furthermore, we have presented the background and current status of AI/ML-based Fog/Edge Computing. Moreover, a taxonomy of AI/ML-based resource management techniques for fog/edge computing has been proposed and compared the existing techniques based on the proposed taxonomy. Finally, open challenges and promising future research directions have been identified and discussed in the area of AI/ML-based fog/edge computing.
