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 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

Cost-sensitive learning is a strategy to solve this problem, and several cost-sensitive DT algorithms have been proposed to date. However, existing algorithms, which are heuristic, tried to greedily select either a better splitting point or feature node, leading to local optima for tree nodes and ignoring the cost of the whole tree. In addition, determination of the costs is difficult and often requires domain expertise. This study proposes a DT for imbalanced data, called Swarm-based Cost-sensitive DT (SCDT), using the cost-sensitive learning strategy and an enhanced swarm-based algorithm. The DT is encoded using a hybrid individual representation. A hybrid artificial bee colony approach is designed to optimize rules, considering specified costs in an F-Measure-based fitness function. Experimental results using datasets compared with state-of-the-art DT algorithms show that the SCDT method achieved the highest performance on most datasets. Moreover, SCDT also excels in other critical performance metrics, such as recall, precision, F1-score, and AUC, with notable results with average values of 83%, 87.3%, 85%, and 80.7%, respectively.展开更多

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.

文摘We examined the relationship between social support and career adaptability,as well as the mediating roles of proactive personality and career decision-making self-efficacy in this process.A total of 1354 Chinese college students(female=964;mean age=19.53 years,SD=1.33 years)completed an online questionnaire.Path analysis indicated that social support was positively associated with higher levels of career adaptability.Both proactive personality and career decision-making self-efficacy served as parallel mediators,strengthening the relationship between social support and career adaptability.The complete chain mediation analysis revealed that social support influences career adaptability primarily through proactive personality,which in turn enhances career decision-making self-efficacy,further contributing to increased career adaptability.These findings extend career capital theory by demonstrating that social and psychological resources jointly facilitate career adaptability.
文摘BACKGROUND Cancer care faces challenges due to tumor heterogeneity and rapidly evolving therapies,necessitating artificial intelligence(AI)-driven clinical decision support.While general-purpose models like ChatGPT offer adaptability,domain-specific systems(e.g.,DeepSeek)may better align with clinical guidelines.However,their comparative efficacy in oncology remains underexplored.This study hypothesizes that domain-specific AI will outperform general-purpose models in technical accuracy,while the latter will excel in patient-centered communication.AIMS To compare ChatGPT and DeepSeek in oncology decision support for diagnosis,treatment,and patient communication.METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted using 1200 anonymized oncology cases(2018–2023)from The Cancer Genome Atlas and institutional databases,covering six cancer types.Each case included histopathology,imaging,genomic profiles,and treatment histories.Both models generated diagnostic interpretations,staging assessments,and therapy recommendations.Performance was evaluated against NCCN/ESMO guidelines and expert oncologist panels using F1-scores,Cohen'sκ,Likert-scale ratings,and readability metrics.Statistical significance was assessed via analysis of variance and post-hoc Tukey tests.RESULTS DeepSeek demonstrated superior performance in diagnostic accuracy(F1-score:89.2%vs ChatGPT's 76.5%,P<0.001)and treatment alignment with guidelines(κ=0.82 vs 0.67,P=0.003).ChatGPT exhibited strengths in patient communi-cation,generating layman-friendly explanations(readability score:8.2/10 vs DeepSeek's 6.5/10,P=0.012).Both models showed limitations in rare cancer subtypes(e.g.,cholangiocarcinoma),with accuracy dropping below 60%.Clinicians rated DeepSeek's outputs as more actionable(4.3/5 vs 3.7/5,P=0.021)but highlighted ChatGPT's utility in palliative care discussions.CONCLUSION Domain-specific AI(DeepSeek)excels in technical precision,while general-purpose models(ChatGPT)enhance patient engagement.A hybrid system integrating both approaches may optimize oncology workflows,contingent on expanded training for rare cancers and real-time guideline updates.
文摘Despite the widespread use of Decision trees (DT) across various applications, their performance tends to suffer when dealing with imbalanced datasets, where the distribution of certain classes significantly outweighs others. Cost-sensitive learning is a strategy to solve this problem, and several cost-sensitive DT algorithms have been proposed to date. However, existing algorithms, which are heuristic, tried to greedily select either a better splitting point or feature node, leading to local optima for tree nodes and ignoring the cost of the whole tree. In addition, determination of the costs is difficult and often requires domain expertise. This study proposes a DT for imbalanced data, called Swarm-based Cost-sensitive DT (SCDT), using the cost-sensitive learning strategy and an enhanced swarm-based algorithm. The DT is encoded using a hybrid individual representation. A hybrid artificial bee colony approach is designed to optimize rules, considering specified costs in an F-Measure-based fitness function. Experimental results using datasets compared with state-of-the-art DT algorithms show that the SCDT method achieved the highest performance on most datasets. Moreover, SCDT also excels in other critical performance metrics, such as recall, precision, F1-score, and AUC, with notable results with average values of 83%, 87.3%, 85%, and 80.7%, respectively.
