Traditional heuristic attribute reduction methods add the most important attribute to the decision attribute set each time, resulting in multiple redundant attribute calculations, high time consumption, and low reduction efficiency. In this paper, based on the idea of sequential three-branch decision classification domain, attributes are treated as objects of three-branch division, and attributes are divided into core attributes, relatively necessary attributes, and unnecessary attributes using attribute importance and thresholds. Core attributes are added to the decision attribute set, unnecessary attributes are rejected from being added, and relatively necessary attributes are repeatedly divided until the reduction result is obtained. Experiments were conducted on 8 groups of UCI datasets, and the results show that, compared to traditional reduction methods, the method proposed in this paper can effectively reduce time consumption while ensuring classification performance.展开更多

Clinicians use these tools to rapidly consult the evidence at the point of care, a practice which has been found to reduce the time patients spend in hospitals, promote the quality of care and improve healthcare outcomes. Such tools include Medscape, VisualDx, Clinical Key, DynaMed, BMJ Best Practice and UpToDate. However, use of such tools has not yet been fully embraced in low-resource settings such as Uganda. Objective: This paper intends to collate data on the use and uptake of one such tool, UpToDate, which was provided at no cost to five medical schools in Uganda. Methods: Free access to UpToDate was granted through the IP addresses of five medical schools in Uganda in collaboration with Better Evidence at The Global Health Delivery Project at Harvard and Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Wolters Kluwer Health. Following the donation, medical librarians in the respective institutions conducted training sessions and created awareness of the tool. Usage data was aggregated, based on logins and content views, presented and analyzed using Excel tables and graphs. Results: The data shows similar trends in increased usage over the period of August 2022 to August 2023 across the five medical schools. The most common topics viewed, mode of access (using either the computer or the mobile app), total usage by institution, ratio of uses to eligible users by institution and ratio of uses to students by institution are shared. Conclusion: The study revealed that the tool was used by various user categories across the institutions with similar steady improved usage over the year. These results can inform the librarians as they encourage their respective institutions to continue using the tool to support uptake of point-of-care tools in clinical practice.展开更多

By e...This study presents an AI-driven Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS) aimed at transforming groundwater suitability assessments for domestic and irrigation uses in Visakhapatnam District, Andhra Pradesh, India. By employing advanced remote sensing, GIS, and machine learning techniques, groundwater quality data from 50 monitoring wells, sourced from the Central Ground Water Board (CGWB), was meticulously analysed. Key parameters, including pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, and major ion concentrations, were evaluated against World Health Organization (WHO) standards to determine domestic suitability. For irrigation, advanced metrics such as Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), Kelly’s Ratio, Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC), and percentage sodium (% Na) were utilized to assess water quality. The integration of GIS for spatial mapping and AI models for predictive analytics allows for a comprehensive visualization of groundwater quality distribution across the district. Additionally, the irrigation water quality was evaluated using the USA Salinity Laboratory diagram, providing essential insights for effective agricultural water management. This innovative SDSS framework promises to significantly enhance groundwater resource management, fostering sustainable practices for both domestic use and agriculture in the region.展开更多

文摘Attribute reduction is a research hotspot in rough set theory. Traditional heuristic attribute reduction methods add the most important attribute to the decision attribute set each time, resulting in multiple redundant attribute calculations, high time consumption, and low reduction efficiency. In this paper, based on the idea of sequential three-branch decision classification domain, attributes are treated as objects of three-branch division, and attributes are divided into core attributes, relatively necessary attributes, and unnecessary attributes using attribute importance and thresholds. Core attributes are added to the decision attribute set, unnecessary attributes are rejected from being added, and relatively necessary attributes are repeatedly divided until the reduction result is obtained. Experiments were conducted on 8 groups of UCI datasets, and the results show that, compared to traditional reduction methods, the method proposed in this paper can effectively reduce time consumption while ensuring classification performance.

文摘Background: Clinical decision support tools provide suggestions to support healthcare providers and clinicians, as they attend to patients. Clinicians use these tools to rapidly consult the evidence at the point of care, a practice which has been found to reduce the time patients spend in hospitals, promote the quality of care and improve healthcare outcomes. Such tools include Medscape, VisualDx, Clinical Key, DynaMed, BMJ Best Practice and UpToDate. However, use of such tools has not yet been fully embraced in low-resource settings such as Uganda. Objective: This paper intends to collate data on the use and uptake of one such tool, UpToDate, which was provided at no cost to five medical schools in Uganda. Methods: Free access to UpToDate was granted through the IP addresses of five medical schools in Uganda in collaboration with Better Evidence at The Global Health Delivery Project at Harvard and Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Wolters Kluwer Health. Following the donation, medical librarians in the respective institutions conducted training sessions and created awareness of the tool. Usage data was aggregated, based on logins and content views, presented and analyzed using Excel tables and graphs. Results: The data shows similar trends in increased usage over the period of August 2022 to August 2023 across the five medical schools. The most common topics viewed, mode of access (using either the computer or the mobile app), total usage by institution, ratio of uses to eligible users by institution and ratio of uses to students by institution are shared. Conclusion: The study revealed that the tool was used by various user categories across the institutions with similar steady improved usage over the year. These results can inform the librarians as they encourage their respective institutions to continue using the tool to support uptake of point-of-care tools in clinical practice.

文摘Objective:To explore factors influencing decision regret among colorectal cancer patients undergoing intestinal ostomy.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted among 102 colorectal cancer patients who underwent intestinal ostomy surgery and visited the ostomy clinic at a tertiary hospital in Baoding from July to September 2025.The Chinese version of the Ostomy Adaptation Inventory(OAI-20),Decision Regret Scale(DRS),Decision Conflict Scale(DCS),and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Colorectal(FACT-C)were used to measure patients’adaptation to stoma,decision regret,decision conflict,and quality of life.The Shared Decision-Making Questionnaire(SDM-Q-9)assessed patient involvement in ostomy surgery decisions,while the SSUK-8 evaluated social support.Additional items explored perceptions related to decision-making,participation,and outcomes.Results:Among 134 eligible patients attending the clinic,120 participated in the questionnaire,with 102 completing all items.Stoma patients reported an average decision regret score of 60.83(SD 28.43),an average coping ability score of 54.26(SD 26.69),an average decision conflict score of 62.55(SD 25.95),and a quality of life score of 56.93(SD 27.46).In the multiple regression analysis,decision regret was associated with decision conflict,poor patient coping ability,low quality of life,and low social support.Conclusion:Decision regret is prevalent among Chinese CRC patients following ostomy surgery.Compared with similar studies in other regions,Chinese CRC patients exhibit a higher rate of regret.This may be related to lower patient involvement in decision-making,generally poorer quality of life,and heavier economic burdens.

文摘To address the confrontation decision-making issues in multi-round air combat,a dynamic game decision method is proposed based on decision tree for the confrontation of unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)air combat.Based on game the-ory and the confrontation characteristics of air combat,a dynamic game process is constructed including the strategy sets,the situation information,and the maneuver decisions for both sides of air combat.By analyzing the UAV’s flight dyna-mics and the both sides’information,a payment matrix is estab-lished through the situation advantage function,performance advantage function,and profit function.Furthermore,the dynamic game decision problem is solved based on the linear induction method to obtain the Nash equilibrium solution,where the decision tree method is introduced to obtain the optimal maneuver decision,thereby improving the situation advantage in the next round of confrontation.According to the analysis,the simulation results for the confrontation scenarios of multi-round air combat are presented to verify the effectiveness and advan-tages of the proposed method.
文摘System upgrades in unmanned systems have made Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)-based patrolling and monitoring a preferred solution for ocean surveillance.However,dynamic environments and large-scale deployments pose significant challenges for efficient decision-making,necessitating a modular multiagent control system.Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)and Decision Tree(DT)have been utilized for these complex decision-making tasks,but each has its limitations:DRL is highly adaptive but lacks interpretability,while DT is inherently interpretable but has limited adaptability.To overcome these challenges,we propose the Adaptive Interpretable Decision Tree(AIDT),an evolutionary-based algorithm that is both adaptable to diverse environmental settings and highly interpretable in its decision-making processes.We first construct a Markov decision process(MDP)-based simulation environment using the Cooperative Submarine Search task as a representative scenario for training and testing the proposed method.Specifically,we use the heat map as a state variable to address the issue of multi-agent input state proliferation.Next,we introduce the curiosity-guiding intrinsic reward to encourage comprehensive exploration and enhance algorithm performance.Additionally,we incorporate decision tree size as an influence factor in the adaptation process to balance task completion with computational efficiency.To further improve the generalization capability of the decision tree,we apply a normalization method to ensure consistent processing of input states.Finally,we validate the proposed algorithm in different environmental settings,and the results demonstrate both its adaptability and interpretability.
文摘This study presents an AI-driven Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS) aimed at transforming groundwater suitability assessments for domestic and irrigation uses in Visakhapatnam District, Andhra Pradesh, India. By employing advanced remote sensing, GIS, and machine learning techniques, groundwater quality data from 50 monitoring wells, sourced from the Central Ground Water Board (CGWB), was meticulously analysed. Key parameters, including pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, and major ion concentrations, were evaluated against World Health Organization (WHO) standards to determine domestic suitability. For irrigation, advanced metrics such as Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR), Kelly’s Ratio, Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC), and percentage sodium (% Na) were utilized to assess water quality. The integration of GIS for spatial mapping and AI models for predictive analytics allows for a comprehensive visualization of groundwater quality distribution across the district. Additionally, the irrigation water quality was evaluated using the USA Salinity Laboratory diagram, providing essential insights for effective agricultural water management. This innovative SDSS framework promises to significantly enhance groundwater resource management, fostering sustainable practices for both domestic use and agriculture in the region.

文摘The high maneuverability of modern fighters in close air combat imposes significant cognitive demands on pilots,making rapid,accurate decision-making challenging.While reinforcement learning(RL)has shown promise in this domain,the existing methods often lack strategic depth and generalization in complex,high-dimensional environments.To address these limitations,this paper proposes an optimized self-play method enhanced by advancements in fighter modeling,neural network design,and algorithmic frameworks.This study employs a six-degree-of-freedom(6-DOF)F-16 fighter model based on open-source aerodynamic data,featuring airborne equipment and a realistic visual simulation platform,unlike traditional 3-DOF models.To capture temporal dynamics,Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)layers are integrated into the neural network,complemented by delayed input stacking.The RL environment incorporates expert strategies,curiositydriven rewards,and curriculum learning to improve adaptability and strategic decision-making.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves a winning rate exceeding90%against classical single-agent methods.Additionally,through enhanced 3D visual platforms,we conducted human-agent confrontation experiments,where the agent attained an average winning rate of over 75%.The agent's maneuver trajectories closely align with human pilot strategies,showcasing its potential in decision-making and pilot training applications.This study highlights the effectiveness of integrating advanced modeling and self-play techniques in developing robust air combat decision-making systems.
