According to news reporting originating from Birmingham, United Kingdom, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "The energy performa nce (EP) of buildings is critical for European governments to meet their decarbo nization targets by 2050. In the context of European Union (EU) policies, which subsidize citizen-led building renovations, it is imperative to ascertain the ef ficacy of these renovations in significantly enhancing EP." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Aston University, "This study relies on six AI-based machine learning (ML) algorithms to identify key p redictors and prescribe measures for enhancing post-renovation EP in building re furbishments. The gradient boosting model outperforms the other ML models with a n accuracy rate of 84.34 % as the most effective predictive model. Moreover, an analysis of numerous predictors in the experiment showed that impl ementing modern energy-efficient heating systems, optimizing dwelling characteri stics, regular maintenance, investing in high-performance insulation materials, and understanding the dynamics of the occupants were relevant prescriptions for efficient energy-saving strategies."

According to news reporting or iginating in Zhejiang, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, resear ch stated, "Hypothyroidism is a known adverse event associated with the use of i mmune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in cancer treatment. This study aimed to deve lop an interpretable machine learning (ML) model for individualized prediction o f hypothyroidism in patients treated with ICIs." Financial support for this research came from Medical Science and Technology Pro ject of Zhejiang Province. The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from First Affiliated Hosp ital, "The retrospective cohort of patients treated with ICIs was from the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University. ML methods applied include logistic r egression (LR), random forest classifier (RFC), support vector machine (SVM), an d extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). The area under the receiver-operating cha racteristic curve (AUC) was the main evaluation metric used. Furthermore, the Sh apley additive explanation (SHAP) was utilized to interpret the outcomes of the prediction model. A total of 458 patients were included in the study, with 59 pa tients (12.88%) observed to have developed hypothyroidism. Among th e models utilized, XGBoost exhibited the highest predictive capability (AUC = 0. 833). The Delong test and calibration curve indicated that XGBoost significantly outperformed the other models in prediction. The SHAP method revealed that thyr oid-stimulating hormone (TSH) was the most influential predictor variable. The d eveloped interpretable ML model holds potential for predicting the likelihood of hypothyroidism following ICI treatment in patients."

    查看更多>>摘要:Investigators publish new report on Ro botics. According to news reporting from Nanjing, People's Republic of China, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Point cloud registration is a fundamental task in intelligent robots, aiming to achieve globally consistent geometric str uctures and providing data support for robotic manipulation. Due to the limited view of measurement devices, it is necessary to collect point clouds from multip le views to construct a complete model." Funders for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China ( NSFC), Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Basic Research Project. The news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Southeast Univer sity, "Previous multi-view registration methods rely on sufficient overlap and r egistering all pairs of point clouds, resulting in slow convergence and high cum ulative errors. To solve these challenges, we present a multi-view registration method based on the point-to-plane model and pose graph. We introduce a robust k ernel into the objective function to diminish registration errors caused by mism atched points. Additionally, an enhanced Euclidean clustering method is proposed for extracting object point clouds. Subsequently, by establishing pose constrai nts on non-adjacent frames of point clouds, the cumulative error is reduced, ach ieving global optimization based on the pose graph. Experimental results demonst rate the robustness of our method with respect to overlap ratios, successfully r egistering point clouds with overlap ratio exceeding 30$% ."
