Non-Assertive and Proactive Prototype

OpenCollective OpenCollective Gitter Twitter

Welcome to the results repository for our paper “Assertiveness-based Agent Communication for a Personalized Medicine on Medical Imaging Diagnosis” (10.1145/3544548.3580682) in proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI ‘23) presented during the “AI in Health” track. In this repository, we aim to develop a prototype of the non-assertive and proactive trial for the Assertiveness-based BreastScreening-AI condition. The prototype is based on an early developed version of the BreastScreening prototype. To test and validate the prototype, initial User Research studies with the prototype are linked (10.13140/RG.2.2.22989.92645/1). A number of advantages over the introduction of our novel proposed type of interactive techniques appear to be evident. Furthermore, we develop the prototype the MIDA project as well. The MIDA project is a research project that deals with the use of a recently proposed technique in literature: Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). These deep networks will incorporate information from several different modes by a User Interface (UI) implemented based on our later prototypes. We also have several channels and demos to see in our YouTube Channel, please follow us!

abstract = {Intelligent agents are showing increasing promise for clinical decision-making in a variety of healthcare settings. While a substantial body of work has contributed to the best strategies to convey these agents’ decisions to clinicians, few have considered the impact of personalizing and customizing these communications on the clinicians’ performance and receptiveness. This raises the question of how intelligent agents should adapt their tone in accordance with their target audience. We designed two approaches to communicate the decisions of an intelligent agent for breast cancer diagnosis with different tones: a suggestive (non-assertive) tone and an imposing (assertive) one. We used an intelligent agent to inform about: (1) number of detected findings; (2) cancer severity on each breast and per medical imaging modality; (3) visual scale representing severity estimates; (4) the sensitivity and specificity of the agent; and (5) clinical arguments of the patient, such as pathological co-variables. Our results demonstrate that assertiveness plays an important role in how this communication is perceived and its benefits. We show that personalizing assertiveness according to the professional experience of each clinician can reduce medical errors and increase satisfaction, bringing a novel perspective to the design of adaptive communication between intelligent agents and clinicians.},

Instructions

First of all, you will need NodeJS installed locally on your machine. This project needs both npm and http-server dependencies to install and run the core project. If you do not have those installed please follow the INSTALL instructions.

DICOM Server

The following assumes you will be using a git version control for this repository, storing thanks to GitHub. First, Download and Install git. Our system needs to be integrated with WADO-URI servers, DICOMWeb servers or any HTTP based server that returns a DICOM P10 instances. We suggest you to use an Orthanc server, since it is a simple and powerful standalone DICOM server by providing a RESTful API.

You can download a latest version or you can use our own sample of an Orthanc version with our examples of patient images. The instructions to use our solution are as follows.

Clone

1.1.1. Clone the DICOM Server repository:

git clone git@github.com:MIMBCD-UI/dicom-server.git

1.1.2. Go inside the project folder:

cd dicom-server/

Install

1.2.1. Install the local dependencies:

npm install

1.2.2. You can now Run the project, just follow the next section.

Run

1.3.1. Inside the project folder:

cd dicom-server

1.3.2. Start the DICOM Server (Orthanc) for MacOS:

npm run start:multi

OR

cd ..
cd dicom-server/orthancAndPluginsOSX.stable/
./startOrthanc.command

NOTE: If you are not using MacOS, for instance, if you are using Windows or Debian you have a documentation for that. Just follow the Windows or Debian documentations. You also have several other options.

1.3.3. Open the link:

localhost:8248

NOTE: If you need some help see the Demo.

Main Server

Our main server uses NodeJS and has several dependencies. For the following steps you must have already installed both NodeJS and npm in your machine.

git clone git@github.com:MIMBCD-UI/prototype-non-assertive-proactive.git

2.1.2. Go inside the project folder:

cd prototype-non-assertive-proactive/

Install

2.2.1. Install the local dependencies:

npm install

2.2.2. You can now Run the project, just follow the next section.

Run

2.3.1. Inside the project folder:

cd prototype-non-assertive-proactive/

2.3.2. If you have already run the DICOM Server on a previous section, please jump to the 2.3.3. point, otherwise do:

npm run dicom-server

2.3.3. Run the code:

npm run build:local

2.3.4. Start the project:

About

For more information about the MIDA project just follow the link. Pieces of information about details of this repository are also in a wiki. This prototype was developed using several libraries and dependencies. Despite that all libraries had their importance and supported the development, one of it was of chief importance. The CornerstoneJS library and secondary libraries, respectively, are supporting this prototype. We Acknowledge all people involved in the path.
