    Investigators from Beijing Normal University Report New Data on Machine Learning (Multi-fidelity Machine Learning for Predicting Bandgaps of Nonlinear Optical C rystals)

    73-73页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Investigators publish new report on Ma chine Learning. According to news reporting originating in Beijing, People's Rep ublic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Nonlinear optical (NLO) materials are of great importance in modern optics and industry because of thei r intrinsic capability of wavelength conversion. Bandgap is a key property of NL O crystals." Financial supporters for this research include National Natural Science Foundati on of China (NSFC), National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), Natural Science Foundation of Zhejiang Province, Beijing Normal University Startup. The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Beijing Normal Univer sity, "In recent years, machine learning (ML) has become a powerful tool to pred ict the bandgaps of compounds before synthesis. However, the shortage of availab le experimental data of NLO crystals poses a significant challenge for the explo ration of new NLO materials using ML. In this work, we proposed a new multi-fide lity ML approach based on the multilevel descriptors developed by us (Z.-Y. Zhan g, X. Liu, L. Shen, L. Chen and W.-H. Fang, J. Phys. Chem. C, 2021, 125, 25175-2 5188) and the gradient boosting regression tree algorithm. The calculated and ex perimental bandgaps of NLO crystals were collected as the low- and high-fidelity labels, respectively. The experimental values were predicted based on chemical compositions of crystals without prior knowledge about crystal structures. The m ulti-fidelity ML model overcame the performance of single-fidelity predictor. Fu rthermore, it was observed that less accurate predictions on the low-fidelity la bel may result in more accurate prediction on the high-fidelity label, at least in the present case. Using the multi-fidelity ML model with the best performance in this work, the mean absolute error on the test set of experimental bandgaps was 0.293 eV, which is smaller than that using the single-fidelity model (0.355 eV). It is far from perfect but accurate enough as an effective computational to ol in the first step to discover novel NLO materials."

    Study Data from Halmstad University Provide New Insights into Artificial Intelli gence (Towards evidence-based practice 2.0: leveraging artificial intelligence i n healthcare)

    74-75页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-Investigators publish new report on ar tificial intelligence. According to news originating from Halmstad, Sweden, by N ewsRx editors, the research stated, "BackgroundEvidence-based practice (EBP) inv olves making clinical decisions based on three sources of information: evidence, clinical experience and patient preferences. Despite popularization of EBP, res earch has shown that there are many barriers to achieving the goals of the EBP m odel. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare has been proposed as a means to improve clinical decision-making." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Halmstad University: "T he aim of this paper was to pinpoint key challenges pertaining to the three pill ars of EBP and to investigate the potential of AI in surmounting these challenge s and contributing to a more evidence-based healthcare practice. We conducted a selective review of the literature on EBP and the integration of AI in healthcar e to achieve this. Challenges with the three components of EBPClinical decision- making in line with the EBP model presents several challenges. The availability and existence of robust evidence sometimes pose limitations due to slow generati on and dissemination processes, as well as the scarcity of high-quality evidence . Direct application of evidence is not always viable because studies often invo lve patient groups distinct from those encountered in routine healthcare. Clinic ians need to rely on their clinical experience to interpret the relevance of evi dence and contextualize it within the unique needs of their patients. Moreover, clinical decision-making might be influenced by cognitive and implicit biases. A chieving patient involvement and shared decision-making between clinicians and p atients remains challenging in routine healthcare practice due to factors such a s low levels of health literacy among patients and their reluctance to actively participate, barriers rooted in clinicians' attitudes, scepticism towards patien t knowledge and ineffective communication strategies, busy healthcare environmen ts and limited resources. AI assistance for the three components of EBPAI presen ts a promising solution to address several challenges inherent in the research p rocess, from conducting studies, generating evidence, synthesizing findings, and disseminating crucial information to clinicians to implementing these findings into routine practice. AI systems have a distinct advantage over human clinician s in processing specific types of data and information. The use of AI has shown great promise in areas such as image analysis. AI presents promising avenues to enhance patient engagement by saving time for clinicians and has the potential t o increase patient autonomy although there is a lack of research on this issue. ConclusionThis review underscores AI's potential to augment evidence-based healt hcare practices, potentially marking the emergence of EBP 2.0."

According to news reporting from Tianjin, People's Republ ic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "The use of invasive mechan ical ventilation (IMV) is crucial in rescuing patients with respiratory dysfunct ion. Accurately predicting the demand for IMV is vital for clinical decision-mak ing." The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Tiangong Univers ity, "However, current techniques are invasive and challenging to implement in p re-hospital and emergency rescue settings. To address this issue, a real-time pr ediction method utilizing only non-invasive parameters was developed to forecast IMV demand in this study. The model introduced the concept of real-time warning and leveraged the advantages of machine learning and integrated methods, achiev ing an AUC value of 0.935 (95 % CI 0.933-0.937). The AUC value for the multi-center validation using the AmsterdamUMCdb database was 0.727, surpass ing the performance of traditional risk adjustment algorithms (OSI(oxygenation s aturation index): 0.608, P/F(oxygenation index): 0.558). Feature weight analysis demonstrated that BMI, Gcsverbal, and age significantly contributed to the mode l's decision-making. These findings highlight the substantial potential of a mac hine learning real-time dynamic warning model that solely relies on non-invasive parameters to predict IMV demand."
