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

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

Supplying many scientific effective computing models, decision support ways and a lot of accurate reliable decision data, the DSS plays a critical part in helping engineering researchers to make correct decisions. Because the period for developing the DSS is relatively shorter, the new way improves the efficiency of establishing DSS greatly. It also makes the DSS of system structure more flexible and easy to expand.展开更多

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Artificial intelligence(AI)is rapidly transforming radiology and computed tomography(CT)imaging by enabling automated image analysis,improved diagnostic accuracy,and clinical decision-support.We performed a systematic review of peerreviewed studies published between January 1,2010 and March 31,2025 to quantify reported gains in diagnostic performance and workflow efficiency,to evaluate clinical decision-support benefits and risks,and to identify integration priorities.We searched PubMed,IEEE Xplore,Scopus,ScienceDirect,and Google Scholar and screened 128 records;26 studies met the inclusion criteria.Extracted data included study design,AI architecture,sample size,and quantitative performance metrics;study quality was assessed using Newcastle-Ottawa Scales(NOS),Cochrane RoB 2,or AMSTAR 2 as appropriate.Across included studies,AI applications in CT showed consistent improvements in sensitivity,specificity,and time-to-diagnosis in specific tasks(notably lung-nodule detection and intracranial hemorrhage triage),with reported detection-rate increases up to~20%and reduced turnaround times in several real-world implementations.Barriers include dataset bias,limited external validation,interpretability(“black-box”)concerns,workflow integration challenges,and evolving regulatory issues.Economic analyses suggest potentially favorable return on investment(ROI)in high-volume settings but are sensitive to licensing and infrastructure costs.To realize AI's benefits in CT imaging,rigorous multi-center validation,transparent reporting,humancentered workflow design,and post-deployment surveillance are essential.
文摘Decision support systems(DSS)based on physically based numerical models are standard tools used by water services and utilities.However,few DSS based on holistic approaches combining distributed hydrological,hydraulic,and hydrogeological models are operationally exploited.This holistic approach was adopted for the development of the AquaVar DSS,used for water resource management in the French Mediterranean Var watershed.The year 2019 marked the initial use of the DSS in its operational environment.Over the next 5 years,multiple hydrological events allowed to test the performance of the DSS.The results show that the tool is capable of simulating peak flows associated with two extreme rainfall events(storms Alex and Aline).For a moderate flood,the real-time functionality was able to simulate forecast discharges 26 h before the flood peak,with a maximum local error of 30%.Finally,simulations for the drought period 2022-2023 highlighted the essential need for DSS to evolve in line with changing climatic conditions,which give rise to unprecedented hydrological processes.The lessons learned from these first 5 years of AquaVar use under operational conditions are synthesized,addressing various topics such as DSS modularity,evolution,data positioning,technology,and governance.

文摘Secure and automated sharing of medical information among different medical entities/stakeholders like patients,hospitals,doctors,law enforcement agencies,health insurance companies etc.,in a standard format has always been a challenging problem.Current methods for ensuring compliance with medical privacy laws require specialists who are deeply familiar with these laws'complex requirements to verify the lawful exchange of medical information.This article introduces a Smart Medical Data Exchange Engine(SDEE)designed to automate the extracting of logical rules from medical privacy legislation using advanced techniques.These rules facilitate the secure extraction of information,safeguarding patient privacy and confidentiality.In addition,SMDEE can generate standardised clinical documents according to Health Level 7(HL7)standards and also standardise the nomenclature of requested medical data,enabling accurate decision-making when accessing patient data.All access requests to patient information are processed through SMDEE to ensure authorised access.The proposed system's efficacy is evaluated using the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act(HIPAA),a fundamental privacy law in the United States.However,SMDEE's flexibility allows its application worldwide,accommodating various medical privacy laws.Beyond facilitating global information exchange,SMDEE aims to enhance international patients'timely and appropriate treatment.
文摘Assessing the stability of pillars in underground mines(especially in deep underground mines)is a critical concern during both the design and the operational phases of a project.This study mainly focuses on developing two practical models to predict pillar stability status.For this purpose,two robust models were developed using a database including 236 case histories from seven underground hard rock mines,based on gene expression programming(GEP)and decision tree-support vector machine(DT-SVM)hybrid algorithms.The performance of the developed models was evaluated based on four common statistical criteria(sensitivity,specificity,Matthews correlation coefficient,and accuracy),receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,and testing data sets.The results showed that the GEP and DT-SVM models performed exceptionally well in assessing pillar stability,showing a high level of accuracy.The DT-SVM model,in particular,outperformed the GEP model(accuracy of 0.914,sensitivity of 0.842,specificity of 0.929,Matthews correlation coefficient of 0.767,and area under the ROC of 0.897 for the test data set).Furthermore,upon comparing the developed models with the previous ones,it was revealed that both models can effectively determine the condition of pillar stability with low uncertainty and acceptable accuracy.This suggests that these models could serve as dependable tools for project managers,aiding in the evaluation of pillar stability during the design and operational phases of mining projects,despite the inherent challenges in this domain.

文摘Uncertain parameters are widespread in engineering systems.This study investigates the modal analysis of a fluid-conveying pipe subjected to elastic supports with unknown-but-bound parameters.The governing equation for the elastically supported fluid-conveying pipe is transformed into ordinary differential equations using the Galerkin truncation method.The Chebyshev interval approach,integrated with the assumed mode method is then used to investigate the effects of uncertainties of support stiffness,fluid speed,and pipe length on the natural frequencies and mode shapes of the pipe.Additionally,both symmetrical and asymmetrical support stiffnesses are discussed.The accuracy and effectiveness of the Chebyshev interval approach are verified through comparison with the Monte Carlo method.The results reveal that,for the same deviation coefficient,uncertainties in symmetrical support stiffness have a greater impact on the first four natural frequencies than those of the asymmetrical one.There may be significant differences in the sensitivity of natural frequencies and mode shapes of the same order to uncertain parameters.Notably,mode shapes susceptible to uncertain parameters exhibit wider fluctuation intervals near the elastic supports,requiring more attention.

文摘The neutral surface of a concave thin mirror is too close to the mirror surface,which makes it difficult to effectively mount the flexible structure and increases the mirror surface shape error.To address this problem,we design a flexible support structure including connectors,a support plate,and flexible structures,and construct an equivalent mirror by installing connectors and a support plate on the back of the mirror.While ensuring that the neutral surface of the equivalent mirror is moved away from the mirror surface,we optimize the support structure so that the rotary center of the flexible structure is located on the neutral surface of the equivalent mirror,avoiding the tilting moment.Following design and modeling of the structure,we analyze the static and dynamic characteristics using a finite element simulation,finding a root-mean-square(RMS)value for the surface shape error of 9.28 nm under the coupled effects of 1g gravity load,4℃ temperature rise,and 0.005 mm unevenness assembly error,with a fundamental frequency of 170.75 Hz,which all meet the design requirements.Finally,we carry out a surface shape error test of the mirror assembly,confirming it to meet the design index requirement of the mirror assembly.Simulation and test results verify the reliability and effectiveness of our proposed support structure.

文摘The advantages of genome selection(GS) in animal and plant breeding are self-evident.Traditional parametric models have disadvantage in better fit the increasingly large sequencing data and capture complex effects accurately.Machine learning models have demonstrated remarkable potential in addressing these challenges.In this study,we introduced the concept of mixed kernel functions to explore the performance of support vector machine regression(SVR) in GS.Six single kernel functions(SVR_L,SVR_C,SVR_G,SVR_P,SVR_S,SVR_L) and four mixed kernel functions(SVR_GS,SVR_GP,SVR_LS,SVR_LP) were used to predict genome breeding values.The prediction accuracy,mean squared error(MSE) and mean absolute error(MAE) were used as evaluation indicators to compare with two traditional parametric models(GBLUP,BayesB) and two popular machine learning models(RF,KcRR).The results indicate that in most cases,the performance of the mixed kernel function model significantly outperforms that of GBLUP,BayesB and single kernel function.For instance,for T1 in the pig dataset,the predictive accuracy of SVR_GS is improved by 10% compared to GBLUP,and by approximately 4.4 and 18.6% compared to SVR_G and SVR_S respectively.For E1 in the wheat dataset,SVR_GS achieves 13.3% higher prediction accuracy than GBLUP.Among single kernel functions,the Laplacian and Gaussian kernel functions yield similar results,with the Gaussian kernel function performing better.The mixed kernel function notably reduces the MSE and MAE when compared to all single kernel functions.Furthermore,regarding runtime,SVR_GS and SVR_GP mixed kernel functions run approximately three times faster than GBLUP in the pig dataset,with only a slight increase in runtime compared to the single kernel function model.In summary,the mixed kernel function model of SVR demonstrates speed and accuracy competitiveness,and the model such as SVR_GS has important application potential for GS.

文摘Transforming urban spatial structures to promote green and low-carbon development is an effective strategy.Although prior studies have examined the impact of urban polycentricity on carbon emissions and economic development,research on its role in the synergistic relationship between these factors regarding carbon emission efficiency is limited.Furthermore,existing literature often overlooks nonlinear effects and interactions with other urban variables.This paper analyzed data from 295 Chinese cities in 2020,calculating urban population polycentricity,population dispersion indices,and carbon emission efficiency.Utilizing local spatial autocorrelation tools,we reveal interactions among urban population polycentricity,dispersion,carbon emissions,and carbon emission efficiency.We then employ a gradient boosting decision tree model(GBDT)to explore nonlinear and synergistic effects of polycentric urbanization.Key findings include:1)polycentric urbanization in Chinese cities exhibits significant spatial differentiation characteristics.The Polycentricity index is relatively high in economically developed eastern coastal regions with an overall low level,carbon emissions are concentrated in industrialized north-central cities and some Yangtze River Delta hubs,and carbon emission efficiency is the highest in the Yangtze River Delta while relatively low in Northeast China;there are significant spatially heterogeneous interaction characteristics among population polycentricity,population dispersion,carbon emissions,and carbon emission efficiency.2)Urban population polycentricity contributes 9.42%to total carbon emissions and 6.24%to carbon emission efficiency.3)The polycentricity index has a nonlinear impact on carbon emissions and carbon emission efficiency:no significant effect when below 0.50 or above 0.55,increased carbon emissions in 0.50-0.53,and reduced carbon emissions with improved efficiency in 0.53-0.55.4)The polycentricity index has an interaction effect with other variables;specifically,when the polycentricity index is between 0.53 and 0.55,its interaction with urban gross domestic product(GDP),urban population,urban built-up area,green coverage rate in built-up areas,urban technological expenditure,and the proportion of the output value of the secondary industry will reduce carbon emissions and improve carbon emission efficiency.These findings enhance the understanding of urban spatial structures and carbon emissions,providing valuable insights for policymakers in developing green and low-carbon strategies.

文摘Parkinson’s disease(PD)is a debilitating neurological disorder affecting over 10 million people worldwide.PD classification models using voice signals as input are common in the literature.It is believed that using deep learning algorithms further enhances performance;nevertheless,it is challenging due to the nature of small-scale and imbalanced PD datasets.This paper proposed a convolutional neural network-based deep support vector machine(CNN-DSVM)to automate the feature extraction process using CNN and extend the conventional SVM to a DSVM for better classification performance in small-scale PD datasets.A customized kernel function reduces the impact of biased classification towards the majority class(healthy candidates in our consideration).An improved generative adversarial network(IGAN)was designed to generate additional training data to enhance the model’s performance.For performance evaluation,the proposed algorithm achieves a sensitivity of 97.6%and a specificity of 97.3%.The performance comparison is evaluated from five perspectives,including comparisons with different data generation algorithms,feature extraction techniques,kernel functions,and existing works.Results reveal the effectiveness of the IGAN algorithm,which improves the sensitivity and specificity by 4.05%–4.72%and 4.96%–5.86%,respectively;and the effectiveness of the CNN-DSVM algorithm,which improves the sensitivity by 1.24%–57.4%and specificity by 1.04%–163%and reduces biased detection towards the majority class.The ablation experiments confirm the effectiveness of individual components.Two future research directions have also been suggested.
文摘In order to solve existing problems about the method of establishing traditional system structure of decision support system(DSS), O S chart is applied to describe object oriented system structure of general DSS, and a new method of eight specific steps is proposed to establish object oriented system structure of DSS by using the method of O S chart, which is applied successfully to the development of the DSS for the energy system ecology engineering research of the Wangheqiu country. Supplying many scientific effective computing models, decision support ways and a lot of accurate reliable decision data, the DSS plays a critical part in helping engineering researchers to make correct decisions. Because the period for developing the DSS is relatively shorter, the new way improves the efficiency of establishing DSS greatly. It also makes the DSS of system structure more flexible and easy to expand.
