    Data on Machine Learning Reported by Vidhya Chellamuthu and Colleagues (Fine tun ed personalized machine learning models to detect insomnia risk based on data fr om a smart bed platform)

    11-12页
    查看更多>>摘要:By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning Daily News Daily News-New research on Machine Learning is th e subject of a report. According to news reporting from San Jose, California, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Insomnia causes serious adverse health ef fects and is estimated to affect 10-30% of the worldwide populatio n. This study leverages personalized fine-tuned machine learning algorithms to d etect insomnia risk based on questionnaire and longitudinal objective sleep data collected by a smart bed platform." The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research, "Users of the Sleep Number smart bed were invited to participate in an IRB approved study which requ ired them to respond to four questionnaires (which included the Insomnia Severit y Index; ISI) administered 6 weeks apart from each other in the period from Nove mber 2021 to March 2022. For 1,489 participants who completed at least 3 questio nnaires, objective data (which includes sleep/wake and cardio-respiratory metric s) collected by the platform were queried for analysis. An incremental, passive- aggressive machine learning model was used to detect insomnia risk which was def ined by the ISI exceeding a given threshold. Three ISI thresholds (8, 10, and 15 ) were considered. The incremental model is advantageous because it allows perso nalized finetuning by adding individual training data to a generic model. The g eneric model, without personalizing, resulted in an area under the receiving-ope rating curve (AUC) of about 0.5 for each ISI threshold. The personalized fine-tu ning with the data of just five sleep sessions from the individual for whom the model is being personalized resulted in AUCs exceeding 0.8 for all ISI threshold s. Interestingly, no further AUC enhancements resulted by adding personalized da ta exceeding ten sessions."

According to news reporting from Kaohsiung City, Taiwan, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "A detection and classification machine- learning model to inspect Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) Mura is proposed in this study." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology: "To improve the capability of the machine- learning model to inspect panels' low-contrast grayscale images, piecewise gamma correction and a Selective Search algorithm are applied to detect and optimize the feature regions based on the Semiconductor Equipment and Materials Internati onal Mura (SEMU) specifications. In this process, matching the segment proportio ns to gamma values of piecewise gamma is a task that involves derivative-free op timization which is trained by adaptive particle swarm optimization. The detecti on accuracy rate (DAR) is approximately 93.75%. An enhanced convolu tional neural network model is then applied to classify the Mura type through us ing the Taguchi experimental design method that identifies the optimal combinati on of the convolution kernel and the maximum pooling kernel sizes."

According to news reporting originating from Nanjing, People 's Republic of China, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Metamodeling i s a promising technique for alleviating the computational burden of building ene rgy simulation." Financial supporters for this research include National Natural Science Foundati on of China; Jiangsu Province Natural Science Foundation; Ministry of Education of The People's Republic of China Humanities And Social Sciences Youth Foundatio n. The news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Nanjing Tech Univer sity: "Although various machine learning (ML) algorithms have been applied, the interactive effects of multiple factors on ML algorithm performance remain uncle ar. In this study, six popular ML algorithms, including ridge regression, random forest, extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), support vector regression (SVR), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) regression and multi-layer perceptron (MLP), were analyz ed for a benchmark metamodeling problem in building energy simulation under the impacts of four factors: input dimension, sample size, degree of input-output se nsitivity and hyperparameter optimization (HPO) technique. The results indicated that XGBoost had high model precision and strong robustness, while KNN and SVR performed poorly on the two metrics. Increasing the sample size could mitigate t he impact of the other three factors on model precision, especially for MLP."

According to news reporting from Winnipeg, Canad a, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "The main difficulty of minimally inv asive Ivor Lewis (IL) procedure for adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric juncti on (AEGJ) is the intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis (IEA). We aimed to as sess the safety and feasibility of the IL procedure with the da Vinci surgical s ystem for treatment of AEGJ with semi-mechanical intrathoracic IEA." The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from the University o f Manitoba, "The cohort included 72 patients with AEGJ who received treatment at the Department of Minimally Invasive Esophagus Surgery of the Tianjin Medical U niversity Cancer Institute and Hospital from August 2020 to March 2023. Of these 72 patients, 17 received neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy. The robot-assisted mi nimally invasive IL procedure was performed using a linear stapler for overlap s ide-to-side intrathoracic anastomosis and the stapler defect was closed with dou ble full-layer continuous sutures by robotic handsewn (semi-mechanical) IEA. Of the 72 AEGJ patients, 2 were converted to exploration, 7 were converted to lapa rotomy and thoracotomy for circular-stapled intrathoracic anastomosis, and 6 wer e converted to thoracotomy for circular-stapled anastomosis, which included 2 ca ses of extensive pleural adhesion and 4 cases of overlap anastomosis failure, wh ereas 57 underwent the robot-assisted minimally invasive IL procedure with semi- mechanical IEA. Among the 9 patients converted to laparotomy, the laparotomy rat e was closely related to the Siewert classification (P <0.0 05) and preoperative use of neoadjuvant therapy (P <0.05). Among the 57 patients who underwent the robot-assisted minimally invasive IL pro cedure with semi-mechanical IEA, there were 2 cases of anastomotic leakages (2/5 7, 3.5%), no case of anastomotic stricture, 5 cases of postoperativ e pneumonia (5/57, 8.77%), 2 cases of intensive care unit admission (2/57, 3.5%), and 1 case of readmission within 30 days (1/57, 1.75 %). None of the patients died within 30 days after surgery. The rob ot-assisted minimally invasive IL procedure with semi-mechanical IEA is both saf e and feasible for AEGJ."

According to news originating from Rostov on Don, Russia, b y NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "The determination of mechanical prope rties for different building materials is a highly relevant and practical field of application for machine learning (ML) techniques within the construction sect or." Funders for this research include Russian Science Foundation. Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Don State Techni cal University: "When working with vibrocentrifuged concrete products and struct ures, it is crucial to consider factors related to the impact of aggressive envi ronments. Artificial intelligence methods can enhance the prediction of vibrocen trifuged concrete properties through the use of specialized machine learning alg orithms for materials' strength determination. The aim of this article is to est ablish and evaluate machine learning algorithms, specifically Linear Regression (LR), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Random Forest (RF), CatBoost (CB), for th e prediction of compressive strength in vibrocentrifuged concrete under diverse aggressive operational conditions. This is achieved by utilizing a comprehensive database of experimental values obtained in laboratory settings. The following metrics were used to analyze the accuracy of the constructed regression models: Mean Absolute Error (* * MAE* * ), Mean Squared Error (* * MSE* * ), Root-Mean-S quare Error (* * RMSE* * ), Mean Absolute Percentage Error (* * MAPE* * ) and co efficient of determination (* * R* * 2). The average * * MAPE* * in the range from 2% (RF, CB) to 7% (LR, SVR) allowed us to draw conclusions about the possibility of using ‘smart' algorithms in the development of compositions and quality control of vibrocentri fuged concrete, which ultimately entails the improvement and acceleration of the construction and building materials manufacture."

    New Intelligent Systems Findings Has Been Reported by Investigators at Sidi Moha med Ben Abdellah University (Octonion-based Transform Moments for Innovative Ste reo Image Classification With Deep Learning)

According to news reporting out of Fes, Morocco, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Recent advances in imaging technologies h ave led to a significant increase in the adoption of stereoscopic images. Howeve r, despite this proliferation, in-depth research into the complex analysis of th e visual content of these stereoscopic images is still relatively rare." Financial support for this research came from King Saud University. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Sidi Mohamed Ben Ab dellah University, "The advent of stereoscopic imaging has brought a new dimensi on to visual content. These images offer a higher level of visual detail, making them increasingly common in a variety of fields, including medicine and industr ial applications. However, exploiting the full potential of stereoscopic images requires a deeper understanding. By exploiting the capabilities of octonion mome nts and the power of artificial intelligence, we aim to break new ground by intr oducing a novel method for classifying stereoscopic images. The proposed method is divided into two key stages: The first stage involves data preprocessing, dur ing which we strive to construct a balanced database divided into three distinct categories. In addition, we extract the stable Octonion Krawtchouk moments (SOK M) for each image, leading to a database of moment images with dimensions of 128 x 128 x 1. In the second step, we train a convolutional neural network (CNN) mo del using this database, with the aim of discriminating between different catego ries. Standard measures such as precision, accuracy, recall, F1 score, and ROC c urves are used to assess the effectiveness of our method."

According to news reporting out of Beijing, People's Repu blic of China, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Traditional methods for deve loping new materials are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of the human ene rgy transition. Machine learning (ML) artificial intelligence (AI) and advanceme nts have caused materials scientists to realize that using AI/ML to accelerate t he development of new materials for batteries is a powerful potential tool." Funders for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China, Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Tsinghua University, "Although the use of certain fixed properties of materials as descriptors to a ct as a bridge between the two separate disciplines of AI and materials chemistr y has been widely investigated, many of the descriptors lack universality and ac curacy due to a lack of understanding of the mechanisms by which AI/ML operates. Therefore, understanding the underlying operational mechanisms and learning log ic of AI/ML has become mandatory for materials scientists to develop more accura te descriptors. To address those challenges, this paper reviews previous work on AI, machine learning and materials descriptors and introduces the basic logic o f AI and machine learning to help materials developers understand their operatio nal mechanisms."
