According to newsoriginating from Astana, Kazakhstan, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “The estimation ofdisc cutter wear ( CW) remains a complex problem in mechanized tunneling using tunnel boring machin es(TBM), despite the development of numerous TBM performance models. This resea rch aimed to estimatethe cutter life index (CLI) as an index to predict the CW by developing predictive models based on twomachine learning algorithms, namely gradient boosting (GB) and random forest (RF), optimized by threeoptimization techniques: particle swarm optimization (PSO), differential evolution (DE), and simulatedannealing (SA).”Funders for this research include Nazarbayev University, Faculty Development Com petitive ResearchGrant program of Nazarbayev University in Kazakhstan.Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Nazarbayev Universi ty, “To gain theaim, a dataset consisting of four rock parameters-density (rho) , uniaxial compressive strength, Braziliantensile strength (BTS), and brittlene ss index-with 80 mechanized tunnel cases for each parameter hasbeen utilized by obtaining the sample and then relevant tests on them were conducted in the labo ratory.First, various parameter selection methods, such as mutual information, have been employed to reduce thedimensionality of the problem, and it has been revealed that rho and BTS have been the most influentialparameters to estimate the CLI. Then, by developing six optimized models, including GB-PSO, GB-DE,GB-S A, RF-PSO, RF-DE, and RF-SA, using the two mentioned parameters, their performan ce has beenassessed via three performance evaluation indices of coefficient of determination (r2), root mean squareerror (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE).”

According to newsreporting originating in Bern, S witzerland, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “The use of endothelialcell cultures has become fundamental to study angiogenesis. Recent advances in artif icial intelligences(AI) offer opportunities to develop automated assessment met hods in medical research, analyzing largerdatasets.”The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from the University of Ber n, “The aim ofthis study was to compare the application of AI with a manual met hod to morphometrically quantify invitro angiogenesis. METHODS: Co-cultures of human microvascular endothelial cells and fibroblasts wereincubated mimicking e ndothelial capillary-beds. An AI-software was trained for segmentation of endothelial capillaries on anti-CD31-labeled light microscope crops. Number of capilla ries and branches andaverage capillary diameter were measured by the AI and man ually on 115 crops. The crops were analyzedfaster by the AI than manually (3 mi nutes vs 1 hour per crop). Using the AI, systematically more capillaries(mean 4 8/mm2 vs 27/mm2) and branches (mean 23/mm2 vs 11/mm2) were counted than manually .Both methods had a strong linear relationship in counting capillaries and bran ches (r-capillaries = 0.88,r-branches = 0.89). No correlation was found for mea surements of the diameter (r-diameter = 0.15).”

According tonews reporting originating from Fu jian, People’s Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, researchstated, “An omaly detection poses a significant challenge in the industry and knowledge dist illationconstructed using a frozen teacher network and a trainable student netw ork is the prevailing approachfor detecting suspicious regions. Forward and rev erse distillation are the main ways to achieve anomalydetection.”Financial supporters for this research include Natural Science Foundation of Xia men, National NaturalScience Foundation of China (NSFC), Xiamen, China, US Depa rtment of Education, Fujian Province ofChina, Xiamen Science and Technology.Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from JiMei University, “To d esign an effectivemodel and aggregate detection results, we propose a dual-stud ent knowledge distillation (DSKD) based onforward and reverse distillation. Tak ing advantage of the priority of reverse distillation to obtain high-levelrepre sentation, we combine a skip connection and an attention module to build a rever se distillationstudent network that simultaneously focuses on high-level repres entation and low-level features. DSKDuses a forward distillation network as an auxiliary to allow the student network to preferentially obtain thequery image. For different anomaly score maps obtained by the dual-student network, we use s yntheticnoise enhancement in combination with image segmentation loss to adapti vely learn the weight scores ofindividual maps. Empirical experiments conducted on the MVTec dataset show that the proposed DSKDmethod achieves good performan ce on texture images as well as competitive results on object imagescompared wi th other state-of-the-art methods.”

According to news reportingfrom Seri Iskandar, Malaysia, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “Over the past two decades, machinelea rning techniques have been extensively used in predicting reservoir properties. While this approachhas significantly contributed to the industry, selecting an appropriate model is still challenging for mostresearchers.”The news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Universiti Teknolog i PETRONAS:“Relying solely on statistical metrics to select the best model for a particular problem may not alwaysbe the most effective approach. This study e ncourages researchers to incorporate data visualization intheir analysis and mo del selection process. To evaluate the suitability of different models in predic tinghorizontal permeability in the Volve field, wireline logs were used to trai n Extra-Trees, Ridge, Bagging, andXGBoost models. The Random Forest feature sel ection technique was applied to select the relevant logsas inputs for the model s. Based on statistical metrics, the Extra-Trees model achieved the highest testaccuracy of 0.996, RMSE of 19.54 mD, and MAE of 3.18 mD, with XGBoost coming in second. However,when the results were visualised, it was discovered that the X GBoost model was more suitable for theproblem being tackled. The XGBoost model was a better predictor within the sandstone interval, whilethe Extra-Trees mode l was more appropriate in non-sandstone intervals. Since this study aims to pred ictpermeability in the reservoir interval, the XGBoost model is the most suitable.”

According tonews originating from Shenyang, Peopl e’s Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated,“Raman spectro scopy serves as a powerful and reliable tool for the characterization of pathoge nic bacteria. The integration of Raman spectroscopy with artificial intelligence techniques to rapidly identify pathogenicbacteria has become paramount for exp editing disease diagnosis.”Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the Chinese Academy of Sciences,“However, the development of prevailing supervised artificial inte lligence algorithms is still constrainedby costly and limited well-annotated Ra man spectroscopy datasets. Furthermore, tackling various highdimensionaland in tricate Raman spectra of pathogenic bacteria in the absence of annotations remai ns aformidable challenge. In this paper, we propose a concise and efficient dee p clustering-based framework(RamanCluster) to achieve accurate and robust unsup ervised Raman spectral identification of pathogenicbacteria without the need fo r any annotated data. RamanCluster is composed of a novel representationlearnin g module and a machine learning-based clustering module, systematically enabling the extraction ofrobust discriminative representations and unsupervised Raman spectral identification of pathogenic bacteria.The extensive experimental resul ts show that RamanCluster has achieved high accuracy on both Bacteria-4and Bact eria-6, with ACC values of 77 % and 74.1 %, NMI value s of 75 % and 73 %, as well as AMIvalues of 74.6 % and 72.6 %, respectively. Furthermore, compared with other state-of -the-art methods,RamanCluster exhibits the superior accuracy on handling variou s complicated pathogenic bacterial Ramanspectroscopy datasets, including situat ions with strong noise and a wide variety of pathogenic bacterialspecies. Addit ionally, RamanCluster also demonstrates commendable robustness in these challeng ingscenarios.”

According to newsreporting originating from Hangz hou, People’s Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, researchstated, “The aim of this study was to determine if utilization of artificial intelligence (A I) in the course of endoscopic procedures can significantly diminish both the ad enoma miss rate (AMR) and the polyp missrate (PMR) compared with standard endos copy. We performed an extensive search of various databases,encompassing PubMed , Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus, until June 2023.”Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the Second Affiliated H ospital ZhejiangUniversity School of Medicine, “The search terms used were arti ficial intelligence, machine learning, deeplearning, transfer machine learning, computer-assisted diagnosis, convolutional neural networks, gastrointestinal(G I) endoscopy, endoscopic image analysis, polyp, adenoma, and neoplasms. The main study aimwas to explore the impact of AI on the AMR, PMR, and sessile serrated lesion miss rate. A total of 7randomized controlled trials were included in th is meta-analysis. Pooled AMR was markedly lower in theAI group versus the non-A I group (pooled relative risk [RR], .46; 9 5% confidence interval [CI], .36-.59; P<.001). PMR was also reduced in the AI group in contrast with the non-AI control (pooled RR, .43; 95% CI, .27-.69 ; P<.001). The results showed that AI decreased the miss r ate of sessile serrated lesions(pooled RR, .43; 95% CI, .20 to .9 2; P<.05) and diminutive adenomas (pooled RR, .49; 95% CI, .26-.93)during endoscopy, but no significant effect was observed for advanc ed adenomas (pooled RR, .48; 95%CI, .17-1.37; P = .17). The avera ge number of polyps (Hedges’ g = -.486; 95% CI, -.697 to -.274; P= .000) and adenomas (Hedges’ g = -.312; 95% CI, -.551 to -.074; P = .01) detected during the secondprocedure also favored AI. However, AI implem entation did not lead to a prolonged withdrawal time (P> .05). This meta-analysis suggests that AI technology leads to significant reduc tion of miss rates for GIadenomas, polyps, and sessile serrated lesions during endoscopic surveillance.”

According to news reporting originating in Munich, Germany, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, “In additionto general anesth esia and mechanical ventilation, robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatec tomy(RALP) necessitates maintaining a capnoperitoneum and placing the patient i n a pronounced downwardtilt (Trendelenburg position). While the effects of the resulting fluid shift on the cardiovascular systemseem to be modest and well to lerated, the effects on the brain and the blood-brain barrier have not beenthor oughly investigated.”The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from LMU University Hospit al, “Previous studiesindicated that select patients showed an increase in the o ptic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), detectedby ultrasound during RALP, which sug gests an elevation in intracranial pressure. We hypothesize thatthe intraoperat ive fluid shift results in endothelial dysfunction and reduced cerebral clearanc e, potentiallyleading to transient neuronal damage. This prospective, monocentr ic, non-randomized, controlled clinicaltrial will compare RALP to conventional open radical prostatectomy (control group) in a total of 50subjects. The primar y endpoint will be the perioperative concentration of neurofilament light chain (NfL)in blood using single-molecule array (SiMoA) as a measure for neuronal dam age. As secondary endpoints,various other markers for endothelial function, inf lammation, and neuronal damage as well as the ONSDwill be assessed. Perioperati ve stress will be evaluated by questionnaires and stress hormone levels insaliv a samples. Furthermore, the subjects will participate in functional tests to eva luate neurocognitivefunction. Each subject will be followed up until discharge.”
