According to news originating from Stockholm, Sweden, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Emergency department (ED) overcrowding is a complex problem that is intricately linked with the operations of other hos pital departments. Leveraging ED real-world production data provides a unique op portunity to comprehend this multifaceted problem holistically." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research, "This paper introduces a novel approach to analyse healthcare production data, treating the length of s tay of patients, and the follow up decision regarding discharge or admission to the hospital as atime-to-event analysis problem. Our methodology employs tradit ional survival estimators and machine learning models, and Shapley additive expl anations values to interpret the model outcomes. The most relevant features infl uencing length of stay were whether the patient received a scan at the ED, emerg ency room urgent visit, age, triage level, and the medical alarm unit category. The clinical insights derived from the explanation of the models holds promise f or increase understanding of the overcrowding from the data."

According to news reporting originating from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Highway state agencies incur signif icant budget savings through optimal allocation of pavement Maintenance, Rehabil itation, and Reconstruction (MR&R) &R) activities. The se activities require robust prediction models that can handle large-scale, real -world data and can forecast pavement performance in the long run." Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from Louisiana State Univers ity, "Unfortunately, the traditional performance prediction models have been que stionable in terms of efficiency and accuracy, are based on a limited number of explanatory variables, and are designated to predict short-term (up to five year s) pavement conditions. Therefore, the goal of this study was to propose a machi ne learningbased technology that can predict the field performance by up to 11 years of Asphalt Concrete (AC) overlays placed on asphalt pavements in Southern states in the US based on key project conditions. The proposed technology result ed from assessing the prediction accuracy of machine learning algorithms, includ ing Decision-Tree (DT), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Artificial Neural N etwork (ANN), and ensemble-learning method, in forecasting the Pavement Conditio n Index (PCI) as the pavement performance indicator. For each algorithm, six mod els were developed sequentially based on historical pavement condition data coll ected from the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LaDOTD) P avement Management System (PMS) database. The six models learned from 892 log mi les of randomly placed AC overlay sections in Louisiana. The output of these mod els was the future PCI of AC overlays at a biannual rate from one to 11 years. T he findings showed that XGBoost and ensemble learning showed similar performance during model training and were further evaluated using the testing dataset. Dur ing model testing, the ensemble learning method yielded higher prediction accura cy than other algorithms, with R2 2 values decreasing from 0.77 at age 1 to 0.67 at age 11, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) values increasing from +1.65 to +4.74, and Mean Absolute Error (MAE) increasing from 1.24 to 4.59."

According to news reporting out of Saita ma, Japan, by NewsRx editors, research stated, "In this study, we propose an aut omated excavation system for pneumatic caisson construction using either a singl e excavator or multiple excavators." The news reporters obtained a quote from the research from Nippon Institute of T echnology: "The system divides the work area among the excavators and manages th e transition of occupied states in shared areas to reduce the risk of collisions . Additionally, the Laplace potential method is employed for path planning to av oid collisions with equipment inside the caisson. The system also includes a mec hanism for disposing of soil outside the caisson by dumping it into an earth buc ket." According to the news editors, the research concluded: "To confirm the effective ness of the proposed method, verification tests were conducted: one using a sing le excavator in a narrower-than-usual caisson, and another using two excavators in atest field. These tests demonstrated the method's effectiveness."

To address this problem, a system that allows a single trainee to observe and quantitatively evaluate the procedu res performed by an experienced surgeon is being developed. In this study, to an alyze the differences between the motions of experienced and novice surgeons, Le ap Motion was used to measure the hand motion of the vascular anastomosis perfor med by both surgeons using atraining kit. Using the measured data, the features of the vascular anastomosis surgical techniques performed by experienced and no vices were tested using the Mann-Whitney U test."

According to news reporting out of Gujarat, India , by NewsRx editors, research stated, "Pavement subgrade design relies on the re silient modulus (Mr) r ) to analyze structural response to vehicle-like loading. Adding stabilizers to the soil subgrade makes estimating Mr r difficult and res ource-intensive." Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from the School of Techn ology, "This study uses an automated machine learning (ML) strategy to predict t he Mr r of stabilized clayey soil using recycled plastic waste. The proposed met hod automates model selection and hyperparameter tuning, making it a feasible al ternative to tedious ML modeling and costly laboratory testing. From extensive l aboratory investigation involving 3285 experimental data points, the automated M L model using Bayesian optimization evaluates ensembles, support vector machine (SVM), neural network (NET), decision trees, (TREE), and Gaussian process (GP) r egression models, identifying the best model based on cross-validation mean squa red error (MSE). Bayesian optimization explores hyperparameter spaces to find op timal configurations, enhancing the accuracy, scalability, and reliability of th e prediction model. The optimization process yielded the best results for the en semble least square boost (LSBoost) model with a cross-validation mean squared e rror (MSE) value of 6.723x10–29. The optimized ML model's performance is measur ed using R2 2 and adjusted R2. 2. The LSboost model's R2 2 and adjusted R2 2 val ues of 0.9999 suggested overfitting, prompting further investigations using perf ormance metrics like root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MSE), and probability density function (PDF) for normalized absolute error (NAE) for t raining and testing datasets for the predictive ML model. The small RMSE and MAE (0.0049 and 0.0005) values and symmetrical NAE distribution of the proposed ML model demonstrate its high accuracy and generalization capabilities. The propose d model was subsequently tested on the new, unseen data and achieved predictions with an error rate of 0.24%."
