“…Machine learning is widely used in several completely different fields; detection of regions of interests, image editing, texture analysis, visual aesthetic and quality assessment (Datta et al, 2006; Marchesotti et al, 2011; Romero et al, 2012; Fernandez-Lozano et al, 2015; Mata et al, 2018) and more recently in Carballal et al (2019b) or for microbiome analysis (Liu et al, 2017; Roguet et al, 2018), authentication of tequilas (Pérez-Caballero et al, 2017; Andrade et al, 2017), pathogenic point mutations (Rogers et al, 2018) or forensic identification (Gómez et al, 2018). Finally, with regard to the extraction of characteristics from images, some recently published works have been revised (Xu, Wang & Wang, 2018; Ali et al, 2016b; Wang et al, 2018; Sun et al, 2018; Zafar et al, 2018b).…”
