To train and validate the system, the scientists used it to study and interpret electronic health records from more than 1.36 million pediatric visits to a major referral center in China. The system shows a high level of accuracy comparable to that of experienced pediatricians and may aid doctors in diagnosing complex or rare diseases by providing more diagnostic predictions, according to the paper.

After the opening day of a Sheffield Shield match was suspended due to concerns over the dangerous Melbourne Cricket Ground pitch, Cricket Australia has assured that they would do every possible effort to make sure that the best wicket is used when the national side play the Boxing Day Test at the MCG. Earlier on Saturday, the first day's play of the clash between Victoria and Western Australia was abandoned in the 40th over after the players of both sides agreed that the MCG pitch was too unsafe to continue. The decision was taken after the umpires noticed that the pitch was too soft and the ball is creating divots, leading to the dangerously uneven bounce and forcing Western Australia's batsmen to endure numerous body blows.
