AUPRC: 0.73
Narula, et al.[24] Support vector machine Automated discrimination of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from physiological hypertrophy of the athletes Overall sensitivity: 87%
Random forest Overall specificity: 82%
Artificial neural network
Madani, et al.[25] Neural network View classification of echocardiograms Accuracy: 97.8%
Otha, et al.[26] Convolutional neural network To detect and classify myocardial delayed enhancement pattern Accuracy: 87.2%–88.9%
González, et al.[27] Convolutional neural network To calculate Agatston score from non-enhanced chest CT without prior segmentation of coronary artery calcification Pearson correlation coefficient between the reference standard and the computed scores on the test set: 0.932
Tao, et al.[28] Convolutional neural network Fully automated quantification of LV from cine MR and to evaluate its performance in a multivendor and multicenter setting The average perpendicular distance compared with manual analysis was 1.1 ± 0.3 mm
Ngo, et al.[29] Deep neural network Automated segmentation of LV from cine magnetic resonance imaging It outperformed manual segmentation

AUC: area under the curve; AUPRC: area under the precision recall curve; LV: left ventricle; ML: machine learning.
