While deep learning (DL) techniques for data imputation have gained attention, challenges remain, especially when dealing with diverse data types. In this study, we introduce a novel data imputation method based on a modified convolutional neural network, specifically, a Deep Residual-Convolutional Neural Network (DRes-CNN) architecture designed to handle missing values across various datasets. Our approach demonstrates substantial improvements over existing imputation techniques by leveraging residual connections and optimized convolutional layers to capture complex data patterns. We evaluated the model on publicly available datasets, including Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-III and MIMIC-IV), which contain critical care patient data, and the Beijing Multi-Site Air Quality dataset, which measures environmental air quality. The proposed DRes-CNN method achieved a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.00006, highlighting its high accuracy and robustness. We also compared with Low Light-Convolutional Neural Network (LL-CNN) and U-Net methods, which had RMSE values of 0.00075 and 0.00073, respectively. This represented an improvement of approximately 92% over LL-CNN and 91% over U-Net. The results showed that this DRes-CNN-based imputation method outperforms current state-of-the-art models. These results established DRes-CNN as a reliable solution for addressing missing data.展开更多

文摘Handling missing data accurately is critical in clinical research, where data quality directly impacts decision-making and patient outcomes. While deep learning (DL) techniques for data imputation have gained attention, challenges remain, especially when dealing with diverse data types. In this study, we introduce a novel data imputation method based on a modified convolutional neural network, specifically, a Deep Residual-Convolutional Neural Network (DRes-CNN) architecture designed to handle missing values across various datasets. Our approach demonstrates substantial improvements over existing imputation techniques by leveraging residual connections and optimized convolutional layers to capture complex data patterns. We evaluated the model on publicly available datasets, including Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-III and MIMIC-IV), which contain critical care patient data, and the Beijing Multi-Site Air Quality dataset, which measures environmental air quality. The proposed DRes-CNN method achieved a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.00006, highlighting its high accuracy and robustness. We also compared with Low Light-Convolutional Neural Network (LL-CNN) and U-Net methods, which had RMSE values of 0.00075 and 0.00073, respectively. This represented an improvement of approximately 92% over LL-CNN and 91% over U-Net. The results showed that this DRes-CNN-based imputation method outperforms current state-of-the-art models. These results established DRes-CNN as a reliable solution for addressing missing data.
文摘The Central Institute of Forensic Science(CIFS)has been providing DNA testing services to Thai people since 2002.Bone accounts for majority of the biological specimens tested,constituting approximately 26%in total evidence.DNA recovery from the bone is challenging owing to degradation and the presence of inhibitors.Therefore,guidelines for bone selection,extraction,and DNA typing are essential for the routine laboratory of CIFS to maximize DNA yield,and minimize time and cost.In this study,we extracted three types of bones:femur,occipital,and petrous,from 12 bodies using a modified organic extraction and silica-based method.The success rate of the Short Tandem Repeat(STR)typing was determined through the number of reportable loci.Furthermore,analysis of mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA)was performed using the massively parallel sequencing technique.Coverage and variant analyses of all samples were evaluated.The results indicate that the femur exhibits the highest success rate in STR typing.The results,in decreasing order,are as follows:femur>petrous>occipital.We determined that silica-based extraction is the most efficient technique for the STR typing;however,modified organic extraction can be used as an alternative method in obtaining mtDNA.The outcome from this study could serve as a guide for identifying human remains and missing persons in the CIFS laboratory,as well as other Thai forensic laboratories.

文摘Accurate traffic flow prediction(TFP)is vital for efficient and sustainable transportation management and the development of intelligent traffic systems.However,missing data in real-world traffic datasets poses a significant challenge to maintaining prediction precision.This study introduces REPTF-TMDI,a novel method that combines a Reduced Error Pruning Tree Forest(REPTree Forest)with a newly proposed Time-based Missing Data Imputation(TMDI)approach.The REP Tree Forest,an ensemble learning approach,is tailored for time-related traffic data to enhance predictive accuracy and support the evolution of sustainable urbanmobility solutions.Meanwhile,the TMDI approach exploits temporal patterns to estimate missing values reliably whenever empty fields are encountered.The proposed method was evaluated using hourly traffic flow data from a major U.S.roadway spanning 2012-2018,incorporating temporal features(e.g.,hour,day,month,year,weekday),holiday indicator,and weather conditions(temperature,rain,snow,and cloud coverage).Experimental results demonstrated that the REPTF-TMDI method outperformed conventional imputation techniques across various missing data ratios by achieving an average 11.76%improvement in terms of correlation coefficient(R).Furthermore,REPTree Forest achieved improvements of 68.62%in RMSE and 70.52%in MAE compared to existing state-of-the-art models.These findings highlight the method’s ability to significantly boost traffic flow prediction accuracy,even in the presence of missing data,thereby contributing to the broader objectives of sustainable urban transportation systems.

文摘Rhododendron is famous for its high ornamental value.However,the genus is taxonomically difficult and the relationships within Rhododendron remain unresolved.In addition,the origin of key morphological characters with high horticulture value need to be explored.Both problems largely hinder utilization of germplasm resources.Most studies attempted to disentangle the phylogeny of Rhododendron,but only used a few genomic markers and lacked large-scale sampling,resulting in low clade support and contradictory phylogenetic signals.Here,we used restriction-site associated DNA sequencing(RAD-seq)data and morphological traits for 144 species of Rhododendron,representing all subgenera and most sections and subsections of this species-rich genus,to decipher its intricate evolutionary history and reconstruct ancestral state.Our results revealed high resolutions at subgenera and section levels of Rhododendron based on RAD-seq data.Both optimal phylogenetic tree and split tree recovered five lineages among Rhododendron.Subg.Therorhodion(cladeⅠ)formed the basal lineage.Subg.Tsutsusi and Azaleastrum formed cladeⅡand had sister relationships.CladeⅢincluded all scaly rhododendron species.Subg.Pentanthera(cladeⅣ)formed a sister group to Subg.Hymenanthes(cladeⅤ).The results of ancestral state reconstruction showed that Rhododendron ancestor was a deciduous woody plant with terminal inflorescence,ten stamens,leaf blade without scales and broadly funnelform corolla with pink or purple color.This study shows significant distinguishability to resolve the evolutionary history of Rhododendron based on high clade support of phylogenetic tree constructed by RAD-seq data.It also provides an example to resolve discordant signals in phylogenetic trees and demonstrates the application feasibility of RAD-seq with large amounts of missing data in deciphering intricate evolutionary relationships.Additionally,the reconstructed ancestral state of six important characters provides insights into the innovation of key characters in Rhododendron.
文摘With the increasing complexity of production processes,there has been a growing focus on online algorithms within the domain of multivariate statistical process control(SPC).Nonetheless,conventional methods,based on the assumption of complete data obtained at uniform time intervals,exhibit suboptimal performance in the presence of missing data.In our pursuit of maximizing available information,we propose an adaptive exponentially weighted moving average(EWMA)control chart employing a weighted imputation approach that leverages the relationships between complete and incomplete data.Specifically,we introduce two recovery methods:an improved K-Nearest Neighbors imputing value and the conventional univariate EWMA statistic.We then formulate an adaptive weighting function to amalgamate these methods,assigning a diminished weight to the EWMA statistic when the sample information suggests an increased likelihood of the process being out of control,and vice versa.The robustness and sensitivity of the proposed scheme are shown through simulation results and an illustrative example.

文摘Deformation monitoring is a critical measure for intuitively reflecting the operational behavior of a dam.However,the deformation monitoring data are often incomplete due to environmental changes,monitoring instrument faults,and human operational errors,thereby often hindering the accurate assessment of actual deformation patterns.This study proposed a method for quantifying deformation similarity between measurement points by recognizing the spatiotemporal characteristics of concrete dam deformation monitoring data.It introduces a spatiotemporal clustering analysis of the concrete dam deformation behavior and employs the support vector machine model to address the missing data in concrete dam deformation monitoring.The proposed method was validated in a concrete dam project,with the model error maintaining within 5%,demonstrating its effectiveness in processing missing deformation data.This approach enhances the capability of early-warning systems and contributes to enhanced dam safety management.
