文摘Northeast China serves as an important crop production region.Accurately forecasting summer precipitation in Northeast China(NEC-PR)has been a challenge due to its wide range of time scales influenced by varying climatic conditions.This study presents a scale separation hybrid statistical model with recurrent neural network(SS-RNN)to predict the summer monthly NEC-PR.The SS-RNN model decomposes the multiple scales of the NEC-PR into several spatiotemporal intrinsic mode functions covering annual to decadal time scales.This strategy provides a way to derive appropriate predictors and establish predictive models for the primary spatial modes of the NEC-PR at various time scales.Our results demonstrate substantial improvements by the SS-RNN model in predicting the summer monthly NEC-PR as compared with dynamic models,particularly in predicting the spatial pattern of the NEC-PR.In this paper we take August,the month of the highest NEC-PR,to assess our model skill.Independent forecasts of the August NEC-PR over the period 2021–24 achieve significant spatial anomaly correlation coefficients,reaching a maximum value of 0.83.Additional verifications by station observations show that the model hits most station anomalies,achieving a mean predictive skill score of 90.

文摘Objective:To investigate the impact of targeted nursing interventions based on frailty prediction models on peri-hospitalization clinical outcomes in middle-aged and elderly patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding(UGIB).Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted,and 126 middle-aged and elderly patients with UGIB admitted from August 2024 to August 2025 were selected as the study subjects.The patients were divided into the intervention group(63 cases)and the control group(63 cases)based on whether they received nursing intervention based on frailty prediction models.The control group received routine care,while the intervention group,on the basis of routine care,used the FRAIL scale combined with laboratory indicators(albumin,hemoglobin,etc.)to establish a predictive model to evaluate patients within 24 hours of admission,and implemented multi-dimensional targeted nursing intervention for pre-frailty or frailty patients screened out.The incidence of frailty,rebleeding rate,average length of stay,hospitalization cost,and nursing satisfaction during hospitalization were compared between the two groups.Results:The incidence of frailty during hospitalization in the intervention group was 11.1%(7 cases/63 cases),significantly lower than 31.7%(20 cases/63 cases)in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(p<0.05).The rebleeding rate of 4.8%vs 12.7%,the average length of stay of(7.2±1.5)days vs(9.1±2.2)days,and the average hospitalization cost of(23,000±6,000)yuan vs(28,000±7,000)yuan in the intervention group were all lower than those in the control group(all p<0.05).The nursing satisfaction score of the intervention group(93.5±4.2)points was higher than that of the control group(86.3±5.8)points(p<0.05).Conclusion:The frailty prediction model applied to the peri-hospitalization care of middle-aged and elderly patients with UGIB can effectively identify frailty risk.Through early targeted intervention,the incidence of frailty and rebleeding rate can be reduced,the length of hospital stay can be shortened,medical expenses can be reduced,and nursing satisfaction can be improved,which has clinical promotion value.

文摘Machine learning-assisted methods for rapid and accurate prediction of temperature field,mushy zone,and grain size were proposed for the heating−cooling combined mold(HCCM)horizontal continuous casting of C70250 alloy plates.First,finite element simulations of casting processes were carried out with various parameters to build a dataset.Subsequently,different machine learning algorithms were employed to achieve high precision in predicting temperature fields,mushy zone locations,mushy zone inclination angle,and billet grain size.Finally,the process parameters were quickly optimized using a strategy consisting of random generation,prediction,and screening,allowing the mushy zone to be controlled to the desired target.The optimized parameters are 1234℃for heating mold temperature,47 mm/min for casting speed,and 10 L/min for cooling water flow rate.The optimized mushy zone is located in the middle of the second heat insulation section and has an inclination angle of roughly 7°.
文摘Hydrological extremes,such as floods,droughts,and compound events,are extremely dangerous to human societies,ecosystems,and infrastructures,whose frequency and severity are affected by climate change more and more.Effective disaster preparedness,water resource management,and climate adaptation have to do with accurate prediction and extensive risk assessment.This review sums up recent progress in predictive modeling and risk assessment systems in the framework of hydrological extremes in the changing climatic conditions.Statistical and empirical techniques,including extreme value theory and nonstationary frequency analysis,give probabilistic information using historic records,whereas process-based models give an understanding of physical hydrological processes at different climate and land-use conditions.New information-based and hybrid methods that use machine learning and high-resolution data take advantage of the complexity and nonlinearities and enhance the predictive power.Hazard,exposure,vulnerability,and adaptive capacity risk assessment models allow predictive output to be translated into actionable decision support,with socio-economic aspects and analysis of the scenario.Case studies of various regions across the globe show the use of these techniques to address floods,droughts,and compound events,with success and current problems.The review also addresses current trends such as compound hazard,multi-hazard integration,AI-enabled modelling,and cross-sectoral decision support,and outlines research priorities of improving predictive capability and resilience.This review will inform researchers,policymakers,and practitioners by offering a synthesis of all the effects of the hydrological extremes in climate change to formulate sound strategies for alleviating these effects.

文摘Excessive blasting-induced vibration during drilling-and-blasting excavation of deep tunnels can trigger geological hazards and compromise the stability of both the rock mass and support structures.This study focused on the deep double-line Sejila Mountain tunnel to systematically analyze the spatial response of blasting-induced vibration and to develop a prediction model through field tests and numerical simulations.The results revealed that the presence of a cross passage significantly altered propagation paths and the spatial distribution of blasting-induced vibration velocity.The peak particle velocity(PPV)at the cross-passage corner was amplified by approximately 1.92 times due to wave reflection and geometric focusing.Blasting-induced vibration waves attenuated non-uniformly across the tunnel cross-section,where PPV on the blast-face side was 1.54–6.56 times higher than that on the opposite side.We propose an improved PPV attenuation model that accounts for the propagation path effect.This model significantly improved fitting accuracy and resolved anomalous parameter(k and a)estimates in traditional equations,thereby improving prediction reliability.Furthermore,based on the observed spatial distribution of blasting-induced vibration,optimal monitoring point placement and targeted vibration control measures for tunnel blasting were discussed.These findings provide a scientific basis for designing blasting schemes and vibration mitigation strategies in deep tunnels.

文摘To investigate the influence of coarse aggregate parent rock properties on the elastic modulus of concrete,the mineralogical properties and stress-strain curves of granite and dolomite parent rocks,as well as the strength and elastic modulus of mortar and concrete prepared with mechanism aggregates of the corresponding lithology,and the stress-strain curves of concrete were investigated.In this paper,a coarse aggregate and mortar matrix bonding assumption is proposed,and a prediction model for the elastic modulus of mortar is established by considering the lithology of the mechanism sand and the slurry components.An equivalent coarse aggregate elastic modulus model was established by considering factors such as coarse aggregate particle size,volume fraction,and mortar thickness between coarse aggregates.Based on the elastic modulus of the equivalent coarse aggregate and the remaining mortar,a prediction model for the elastic modulus of the two and three components of concrete in series and then in parallel was established,and the predicted values differed from the measured values within 10%.It is proposed that the coarse aggregate elastic modulus in highstrength concrete is the most critical factor affecting the elastic modulus of concrete,and as the coarse aggregate elastic modulus increases by 27.7%,the concrete elastic modulus increases by 19.5%.

文摘The micro-riblet structures have been demonstrated effective in controlling the Total Pressure Loss(TPL)of aero-engine blades.However,due to the considerable scale gap between micro-texture and an actual aero-engine blade,wind tunnel tests and numerical simulations with massive grids directly describing the global flow field are costly for aerodynamic evaluation.Furthermore,the fine micro surface structure brings unavoidable manufacturing errors,and the probability prediction contributes to gaining the confidence interval of the results.Therefore,a novel relay-based probabilistic model for multi-fidelity scenarios in the TPL prediction of a compressor cascade with micro-riblet surfaces is proposed to trade off accuracy and efficiency.Combined with the low-fidelity flow data generated by an aerodynamic solution strategy using the boundary surrogate model and the high-fidelity flow data from the experiment,the relay-based modeling has been achieved through knowledge transferring,and the confidence interval can be provided by the Gaussian Process Regression(GPR)model.The TPL of compressor cascades with micro-riblet surfaces under different surface structures at March number Ma=0.64,0.74,0.84 have been evaluated using the Relay-Based Probabilistic(RBP)model.The results illustrate that the RBP model could provide higher accuracy than the Single-Fidelity-Data-Driven(SFDD)prediction model,which show the promising potential of multi-fidelity scenarios data fusion in the aerodynamic evaluation of multi-scale configurations.

文摘BACKGROUND:Sepsis survivors experience poor long-term quality of life post-discharge.The aim of this study was to analyze the factors that impact the long-term quality of life of sepsis survivors and develop a clinical prediction model.METHODS:A total of 442 sepsis patients from the Emergency Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary hospital in Wenzhou were included.These patients were assigned to the training set or the validation set at a ratio of 7:3.The European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions 5 Level Version(EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire was used to evaluate the quality of life in sepsis survivors one year after discharge.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors,which were then used to develop the prediction model and subsequently derive a scoring system.The model's effectiveness was assessed using an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve,calibration curves,and clinical decision analysis.RESULTS:Of the 442 patients included,70 died one year after discharge,and 372 completed the questionnaire.A total of 46.6% of sepsis survivors have poor quality of life one year after discharge in the training set.Multivariate logistic regression revealed that age,platelet,serum albumin,serum urea,and C-reactive protein were independent risk factors for poor quality of life in sepsis survivors.The area under the curve of the scoring system was 0.777(95% CI:0.726–0.828).The calibration curves showed that it was well calibrated.Decision curve analysis indicated that the scoring system provided good clinical usefulness.The internal validation also demonstrated its effectiveness.CONCLUSION:The prediction model incorporating five risk factors may predict quality of life one year after discharge in sepsis survivors,which provides a measure to develop post-discharge rehabilitation and follow-up plans for this patient population.

文摘In response to the challenges of inadequate predictive accuracy and limited generalization capability in data-driven modeling for the mechanical properties of the cold-rolled strip steel,a predictive modeling method named RFR-WOA is developed based on random forest regression(RFR)and whale optimization algorithm(WOA).Firstly,using Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis and Gini coefficient importance ranking on an actual production dataset containing 37,878 samples,22 key variables are selected as model inputs from 112 variables that affect mechanical properties.Subsequently,an RFR-based predictive model for the mechanical properties of cold-rolled strip steel is constructed.Then,with the combination of the coefficient of determination(R^(2))and root mean square error as the optimization objective,the hyperparameters of RFR model are iteratively optimized using WOA,and better predictive effectiveness is obtained.Finally,the mechanical properties prediction model based on RFR-WOA is compared with models established using deep neural networks,convolutional neural networks,and other methods.The test results on 9469 samples of actual production data show that the model developed present has better predictive accuracy and generalization capability.

文摘This article proposes a Gaussian process(GP) based model predictive control(MPC) method to solve the tracking control of wheeled mobile robot( WMR) with uncertain model parameters.Firstly,a Gaussian process velocity prediction model is proposed to compensate for the unknown dynamic model,as the kinematic model cannot accurately characterize the motion characteristics of the robot.Then,by introducing the Lorentz function,the improved iterative linear quadratic regulator(iLQR) method is used to solve the nonlinear MPC(NMPC) controller with constraints.In addition,in order to reduce computational burden,a closed gradient calculation method is introduced to improve algorithm efficiency.Finally,the feasibility and effectiveness of this method are verified through simulation and experiment.

文摘Digital modeling and autonomous control of the die forging process are significant challenges in realizing high-quality intelli-gent forging of components.Using the die forging of AA2014 aluminum alloy as a case study,a machine-learning-assisted method for di-gital modeling of the forging force and autonomous control in response to forging parameter disturbances was proposed.First,finite ele-ment simulations of the forging processes were conducted under varying friction factors,die temperatures,billet temperatures,and for-ging velocities,and the sample data,including process parameters and forging force under different forging strokes,were gathered.Pre-diction models for the forging force were established using the support vector regression algorithm.The prediction error of F_(f),that is,the forging force required to fill the die cavity fully,was as low as 4.1%.To further improve the prediction accuracy of the model for the ac-tual F_(f),two rounds of iterative forging experiments were conducted using the Bayesian optimization algorithm,and the prediction error of F_(f) in the forging experiments was reduced from 6.0%to 1.5%.Finally,the prediction model of F_(f) combined with a genetic algorithm was used to establish an autonomous optimization strategy for the forging velocity at each stage of the forging stroke,when the billet and die temperatures were disturbed,which realized the autonomous control in response to disturbances.In cases of−20 or−40℃ reductions in the die and billet temperatures,forging experiments conducted with the autonomous optimization strategy maintained the measured F_(f) around the target value of 180 t,with the relative error ranging from−1.3%to+3.1%.This work provides a reference for the study of di-gital modeling and autonomous optimization control of quality factors in the forging process.
文摘BACKGROUND Colorectal polyps are precancerous diseases of colorectal cancer.Early detection and resection of colorectal polyps can effectively reduce the mortality of colorectal cancer.Endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR)is a common polypectomy proce-dure in clinical practice,but it has a high postoperative recurrence rate.Currently,there is no predictive model for the recurrence of colorectal polyps after EMR.AIM To construct and validate a machine learning(ML)model for predicting the risk of colorectal polyp recurrence one year after EMR.METHODS This study retrospectively collected data from 1694 patients at three medical centers in Xuzhou.Additionally,a total of 166 patients were collected to form a prospective validation set.Feature variable screening was conducted using uni-variate and multivariate logistic regression analyses,and five ML algorithms were used to construct the predictive models.The optimal models were evaluated based on different performance metrics.Decision curve analysis(DCA)and SHapley Additive exPlanation(SHAP)analysis were performed to assess clinical applicability and predictor importance.RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified 8 independent risk factors for colorectal polyp recurrence one year after EMR(P<0.05).Among the models,eXtreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost)demonstrated the highest area under the curve(AUC)in the training set,internal validation set,and prospective validation set,with AUCs of 0.909(95%CI:0.89-0.92),0.921(95%CI:0.90-0.94),and 0.963(95%CI:0.94-0.99),respectively.DCA indicated favorable clinical utility for the XGBoost model.SHAP analysis identified smoking history,family history,and age as the top three most important predictors in the model.CONCLUSION The XGBoost model has the best predictive performance and can assist clinicians in providing individualized colonoscopy follow-up recommendations.

文摘BACKGROUND Patients harboring gene mutations like KRAS,NRAS,and BRAF demonstrate highly variable responses to chemotherapy,posing challenges for treatment optimization.Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),with its noninvasive capability to assess tumor characteristics in detail,has shown promise in evaluating treatment response and predicting therapeutic outcomes.This technology holds potential for guiding personalized treatment strategies tailored to individual patient profiles,enhancing the precision and effectiveness of colorectal cancer care.AIM To create a multiparametric MRI-based predictive model for assessing chemotherapy efficacy in colorectal cancer patients with gene mutations.METHODS This retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary hospital,analyzing 157 colorectal cancer patients with gene mutations treated between August 2022 and December 2023.Based on chemotherapy outcomes,the patients were categorized into favorable(n=60)and unfavorable(n=50)response groups.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of chemotherapy efficacy.A predictive nomogram was constructed using significant variables,and its performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)in both training and validation sets.RESULTS Univariate analysis identified that tumor differentiation,T2 signal intensity ratio,tumor-to-anal margin distance,and MRI-detected lymph node metastasis as significantly associated with chemotherapy response(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistics regression confirmed these four parameters as independent predictors.The predictive model demonstrated strong discrimination,with an AUC of 0.938(sensitivity:86%;specificity:92%)in the training set,and 0.942(sensitivity:100%;specificity:83%)in the validation set.CONCLUSION We established and validated a multiparametric MRI-based model for predicting chemotherapy response in colorectal cancer patients with gene mutations.This model holds promise for guiding individualized treatment strategies.

文摘BACKGROUND The discrepancy between endoscopic biopsy pathology and the overall pathology of gastric low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia(LGIN)presents challenges in developing diagnostic and treatment protocols.AIM To develop a risk prediction model for the pathological upgrading of gastric LGIN to aid clinical diagnosis and treatment.METHODS We retrospectively analyzed data from patients newly diagnosed with gastric LGIN who underwent complete endoscopic resection within 6 months at the First Medical Center of Chinese People’s Liberation Army General Hospital between January 2008 and December 2023.A risk prediction model for the pathological progression of gastric LGIN was constructed and evaluated for accuracy and clinical applicability.RESULTS A total of 171 patients were included in this study:93 patients with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia or early gastric cancer and 78 with LGIN.The logistic stepwise regression model demonstrated a sensitivity and specificity of 0.868 and 0.800,respectively,while the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)regression model showed sensitivity and specificity values of 0.842 and 0.840,respectively.The area under the curve(AUC)for the logistic model was 0.896,slightly lower than the AUC of 0.904 for the LASSO model.Internal validation with 30%of the data yielded AUC scores of 0.908 for the logistic model and 0.905 for the LASSO model.The LASSO model provided greater utility in clinical decision-making.CONCLUSION A risk prediction model for the pathological upgrading of gastric LGIN based on white-light and magnifying endoscopic features can accurately and effectively guide clinical diagnosis and treatment.

文摘Workpiece rotational grinding is widely used in the ultra-precision machining of hard and brittle semiconductor materials,including single-crystal silicon,silicon carbide,and gallium arsenide.Surface roughness and subsurface damage depth(SDD)are crucial indicators for evaluating the surface quality of these materials after grinding.Existing prediction models lack general applicability and do not accurately account for the complex material behavior under grinding conditions.This paper introduces novel models for predicting both surface roughness and SDD in hard and brittle semiconductor materials.The surface roughness model uniquely incorporates the material’s elastic recovery properties,revealing the significant impact of these properties on prediction accuracy.The SDD model is distinguished by its analysis of the interactions between abrasive grits and the workpiece,as well as the mechanisms governing stress-induced damage evolution.The surface roughness model and SDD model both establish a stable relationship with the grit depth of cut(GDC).Additionally,we have developed an analytical relationship between the GDC and grinding process parameters.This,in turn,enables the establishment of an analytical framework for predicting surface roughness and SDD based on grinding process parameters,which cannot be achieved by previous models.The models were validated through systematic experiments on three different semiconductor materials,demonstrating excellent agreement with experimental data,with prediction errors of 6.3%for surface roughness and6.9%for SDD.Additionally,this study identifies variations in elastic recovery and material plasticity as critical factors influencing surface roughness and SDD across different materials.These findings significantly advance the accuracy of predictive models and broaden their applicability for grinding hard and brittle semiconductor materials.

文摘Objective:Neoadjuvant therapy(NAT)has become the standard treatment option for patients with locally advanced breast cancer.How to non-invasively screen out patients with pathological complete response(pCR)after NAT has become an urgent world-wide clinical problem.Our work aims to the assessment of neoadjuvant treatment response in breast cancer patients for higher accuracy prediction using innovative artificial intelligence system.Methods:In this study,we retrospectively collected longitudinal(pre-NAT and post-NAT)multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and clinicopathologic data of a total of 1,315 breast cancer patients(clinical stageⅠ-Ⅲ)who had undergone NAT followed by standard surgery and treated across 5 independent medical centers from January 2010 to January 2023.We used radiomics,3D convolutional neural network technology and clinical data statistical analysis methods to extract and screen multimodal features,and then developed and validated a Clinical-Radiomics-Deep-Learning(CRDL)model to predict patients'pCR outcomes based on multimodal fusion features.Results:We use the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)in the primary cohort(PC)and3 external validation cohorts(VC_(1-3))to evaluate the model performance.The results showed that the AUC in the PC composed of 2 medical centers was 0.947[95%confidence interval(95%CI):0.931-0.960],and the AUC values in VC_(1-3)were 0.857(95%CI:0.810-0.901),0.883(95%CI:0.841-0.918)and 0.904(95%CI:0.860-0.941),respectively.Conclusions:The CRDL model demonstrated high accuracy and robustness in predicting pCR to NAT using multimodal fusion data.This study provides a strong foundation for non-invasive assessment of pCR status in breast cancer patients following NAT and offers critical insights to guide clinical decision-making in post-NAT treatment planning.
