Predicting oral malodour based on the microbiota in saliva samples using a deep learning approach

Abstract Background Oral malodour is mainly caused by volatile sulphur compounds produced by bacteria and bacterial interactions. It is difficult to predict the presence or absence of oral malodour based on the abundances of specific species and their combinations. This paper presents an effective w...
