Assistant Professor Ankita Shukla and Professor George Bebis from the University of Nevada, Reno are leading a $1 million research initiative [1]. The National Science Foundation funded this project to enhance the reliability of artificial intelligence in real-world clinical environments [1]. Researchers aim to create safer and more equitable clinical AI tools for healthcare providers [1]. The project focuses on three specific medical applications to ensure better diagnostic accuracy [1]. These areas include breast cancer detection through mammography, medical text analysis, and sleep disorder diagnosis [1]. This research addresses the critical need for dependable AI systems that can handle complex clinical data [1].
