Kankanet: An Artificial Neural Network-Based Smartphone Application as a Point-of-Care Diagnostic Aid for Soil-Transmitted Helminthiases:
A Pilot Study in Rural Madagascar
Soil-transmitted helminthiases (STH):endemic in rural areas,diagnosed in urban areas
How are STH diagnosed?
How prevalent are STH in rural
villages of Ranomafana?
Ascaris lumbricoides 69.0%
Trichuris trichiura 87.6%
Hookworm (Ancylostoma spp.,
Necatur americanus) 3.5%
July 2018 sample of population in
Ambinanindranofotaka and Mangevo (n=113)
How rural is rural?
Our goals:What features did we want our solution to have?
Point-of-care Inexpensive Low-resource User-friendly
Our solution: Kankanet
Kankana, Malagasy for “worm” + net, short for convolutional neural network
Kankanet Microscope Stage Android phone
How do convolutional networks like
Kankanet work?Raccoon!

Cost Benefit
Where can we go from here?
Kankanet
Developed from Tensorflow, an
open-source library
Improve hardware and softwareIncrease microscope resolution
Add more images to Kankanet database
Empower local health workersTo train or aid human diagnosis
To develop similar point-of-care diagnostic tools
