文摘Based on the comparison of several methods of time series predicting, this paper points out that it is necessary to use dynamic neural network in modeling of complex production process. Because self feedback and mutual feedback are adopted among nodes at the same layer in Elman network, it has stronger ability of dynamic approximation, and can describe any non linear dynamic system. After the structure and mathematical description being given, dynamic back propagation (BP) algorithm of training weights of Elman neural network is deduced. At last, the network is used to predict ash content of black amber in jigging production process.

文摘This study aimed to develop a multimodal imaging histological model based on computed tomography(CT)images and carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)values to predict the efficacy of preoperative neoadjuvant therapy in rectal cancer patients.Data were obtained from the Database of Colorectal Cancer of West China Hospital of Sichuan University.A total of 155 patients were enrolled and categorized into good and poor response groups based on pathological evaluation using the tumor regression grade system.Radiomics features were extracted from CT images using PyRadiomics software,and CEA data were collected and processed.Three types of models—a clinical model,a pure radiomics model,and an integrated model—were constructed using logistic regression,support vector machine,random forest(RF),and XGBoost algorithms.The results showed that the integrated model,particularly the RF and XGBoost models,demonstrated the best predictive performance.The RF model achieved an area under the curve(AUC)value of 0.96 in the test set,with accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity of 0.88,0.50,and 1.00,respectively.The XGBoost model had the highest AUC value of 0.97 in the test set,with accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity of 0.91,0.70,and 0.97,respectively.This model can be integrated into existing clinical practice to provide clinicians with additional insights for guiding treatment decisions.Future studies should recruit a larger and more diverse patient population to validate and refine the model,and prospective validation is needed to assess its real-world applicability.

文摘Improving the efficiency of athletic performance and reducing the likelihood of overtraining are primarily determined goals that can be achieved by the correct organization of the training process.The nature of adaptation to physical stress is associated with the specificity,focus,and degree of biochemical and functional changes that occur during muscular work.In this study,we aimed to develop a diagnostic model for predicting metabolic processes in athletes based on standard biochemical blood analysis indicators.The study involved athletes from the track and field athletics team(men,n=42,average age was[22.55±3.68]years).Blood samples were collected in the morning at the beginning and end of the training week during the annual cycle.During the entire period,3625 laboratory parameter tests were conducted.Capillary blood sampling in athletes was conducted from the distal phalanx of the finger after overnight fasting,according to standard diagnostic procedures.To determine the predominance of anabolic or catabolic processes,equations were derived from a linear discriminant function.The discriminant function of predicting metabolic processes in athletes has a high information capacity(92.1%),as confirmed by the biochemical results of neuroendocrine system activity,which characterized the body's stage of adaptive regulatory mechanisms in response to stress factors.The classification matrix used to predict the metabolic processes based on the results of the discriminant function calculation demonstrates the statistical significance of the model(p<0.01).Consequently,an informative mathematical model was developed,which enabled the reliable and timely prediction of the prevalence of one of the metabolic activity phases in the athlete's body.The use of the developed model will also allow us to assess the nature of adaptation to specific muscular work,identify an athlete's weaknesses,forecast the success of their performance,and timely adjust both the training process and the recovery program.

文摘BACKGROUND The hepatic venous pressure gradient serves as a crucial parameter for assessing portal hypertension and predicting clinical decompensation in individuals with cirrhosis.However,owing to its invasive nature,there has been growing interest in identifying noninvasive alternatives.Transient elastography offers a promising approach for measuring liver stiffness and spleen stiffness,which can help estimate the likelihood of decompensation in patients with chronic liver disease.AIM To investigate the predictive ability of the liver stiffness measurement(LSM)and spleen stiffness measurement(SSM)in conjunction with other noninvasive indicators for clinical decompensation in patients suffering from compensatory cirrhosis and portal hypertension.METHODS This study was a retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 200 patients who were diagnosed with viral cirrhosis and who received computed tomography,transient elastography,ultrasound,and endoscopic examinations at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University between March 2020 and November 2022.Patient classification was performed in accordance with the Baveno VI consensus.The area under the curve was used to evaluate and compare the predictive accuracy across different patient groups.The diagnostic effectiveness of several models,including the liver stiffness-spleen diameter-platelet ratio,variceal risk index,aspartate aminotransferase-alanine aminotransferase ratio,Baveno Ⅵ criteria,and newly developed models,was assessed.Additionally,decision curve analysis was carried out across a range of threshold probabilities to evaluate the clinical utility of these predictive factors.RESULTS Univariate and multivariate analyses demonstrated that SSM,LSM,and the spleen length diameter(SLD)were linked to clinical decompensation in individuals with viral cirrhosis.On the basis of these findings,a predictive model was developed via logistic regression:Ln[P/(1-P)]=-4.969-0.279×SSM+0.348×LSM+0.272×SLD.The model exhibited strong performance,with an area under the curve of 0.944.At a cutoff value of 0.56,the sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value for predicting clinical decompensation were 85.29%,88.89%,87.89%,and 86.47%,respectively.The newly developed model demonstrated enhanced accuracy in forecasting clinical decompensation among patients suffering from viral cirrhosis when compared to four previously established models.CONCLUSION Noninvasive models utilizing SSM,LSM,and SLD are effective in predicting clinical decompensation among patients with viral cirrhosis,thereby reducing the need for unnecessary hepatic venous pressure gradient testing.

文摘Gross primary production(GPP)is closely associated with processes such as photosynthesis and transpiration within ecosystems,which is a vital component of the global carbon-water-energy cycle.Accurate prediction of GPP in terrestrial ecosystems is essential for evaluating terrestrial carbon cycle processes.Machine learning(ML)models provide significant technical support in this domain.Presently,there is a deficiency of high-precision and robust GPP prediction variables and models.Challenges such as unclear contributions of predictive variables,extended model training durations,and limited robustness must be addressed.Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence(SIF),optimized multilayer perceptron neural networks,and ensemble learning models show the potential to overcome these challenges.This study aimed to develop an optimized multilayer perceptron neural network model and an ensemble learning model,while objectively assessing the capacity of SIF to predict GPP.Identifying robust models capable of enhancing the accuracy of GPP predictions was the ultimate goal.This study utilized continuous observations of SIF and meteorological data collected from 2020 to 2021 at a designated research observation station within the Populus plantation ecosystem of the Huanghuaihai agricultural protective forest system in Henan Province,China.By optimizing and evaluating the predictive accuracy and robustness of the models across different temporal scales(half-hourly and daily scales),a multi-layer perceptron(MLP)neural network optimization model based on the back propagation(BP)neural network(BPNN)algorithm(BP/MLP)and MLP and random forest(RF)integration(MLP-RF)ensemble models were constructed,utilizing SIF as the primary predictive variable for GPP.Both the BP/MLP(half-hourly scale model R^(2)=0.885,daily scale model R^(2)=0.921)and the MLP-RF(half-hourly scale model R^(2)=0.845,daily scale model R^(2)=0.914)models showed superior accuracy compared to the BPNN(half-hourly scale model R^(2)=0.841,daily scale model R^(2)=0.918)and the traditional RF(half-hourly scale model R^(2)=0.798,daily scale model R^(2)=0.867)models,with the BP/MLP model consistently outperforming the MLP-RF model.The BP/MLP model,which was optimized through particle swarm optimization(PSO),significantly enhanced the robustness of GPP predictions on a half-hourly scale and daily scale.Considering both half-hourly scale and daily scale in the PSO-BP/MLP modeling,the four indicators,light-use efficiency(LUE),photosynthetically active radiation(PAR),absorbed photosynthetically active radiation(APAR),and the variation in SIF with NIRvP(fSIF(NIRvP)),exhibited the potential for enhancing the accuracy of GPP predictions.This study employed a series of model optimization techniques to develop a GPP prediction model with enhanced performance that objectively evaluated the contributions of the predictive variables.This approach provided an innovative and effective method for assessing the carbon cycle in terrestrial ecosystems.

文摘BACKGROUND:This study aims to develop and validate a machine learning-based in-hospital mortality predictive model for acute aortic syndrome(AAS)in the emergency department(ED)and to derive a simplifi ed version suitable for rapid clinical application.METHODS:In this multi-center retrospective cohort study,AAS patient data from three hospitals were analyzed.The modeling cohort included data from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and the People’s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,with Peking University Third Hospital data serving as the external test set.Four machine learning algorithms—logistic regression(LR),multilayer perceptron(MLP),Gaussian naive Bayes(GNB),and random forest(RF)—were used to develop predictive models based on 34 early-accessible clinical variables.A simplifi ed model was then derived based on fi ve key variables(Stanford type,pericardial eff usion,asymmetric peripheral arterial pulsation,decreased bowel sounds,and dyspnea)via Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator(LASSO)regression to improve ED applicability.RESULTS:A total of 929 patients were included in the modeling cohort,and 210 were included in the external test set.Four machine learning models based on 34 clinical variables were developed,achieving internal and external validation AUCs of 0.85-0.90 and 0.73-0.85,respectively.The simplifi ed model incorporating fi ve key variables demonstrated internal and external validation AUCs of 0.71-0.86 and 0.75-0.78,respectively.Both models showed robust calibration and predictive stability across datasets.CONCLUSION:Both kinds of models were built based on machine learning tools,and proved to have certain prediction performance and extrapolation.
文摘Purpose:ATLAS is a cross-sectional study aiming to investigate environmental and genetic determinants of athletic performance in healthy Greek competitive athletes(CA).This article presents the study design,investigates the muscle strength performance(MSP)of 289 adult and teenage CA,exercisers,and physically inactive individuals(PI),and proposes predictive models of MSP for adults.Methods:Muscle maximal,speed,and explosive strength(MMS/MSS/MES)at unilateral maximal concentric flexion and extension contraction(FC/EC)were evaluated using Biodex System 3 PRO^(TM)at 60°/s,180°/s,and 300°/s,while additional performance markers were assessed through field ergometric testing.Participants were interviewed about their lifestyle,dietary habits,physical activity,injury,and medical history.Body composition was assessed via bioelectrical impedance.gDNA was extracted from biochemical samples and then genotyped.Statistical analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics v21.0 and R.Results:Age,fitness,and sex impacted correlations of MSP with body composition and anthropometric measurements(p<0.05).Among CA,females outperformed males in accuracy(p<0.001)while,males outperformed females in anaerobic power,MSP,speed,and endurance(p<0.001).Adult CA outperformed exercisers and PI in MMS,MSS,and MES(p<0.05).Multiple linear regression models,with predictors age,FFM,body extremity,training load explained the majority of variation in MMS(R^(2)_(adj):71.4%–88.9%),MSS(R^(2)_(adj):64.8%–78.4%),and MES(R^(2)_(adj):52.7%–68.4%)at EC,FC,and their mean(p<0.001).Conclusions:Muscle-strengthening strategies should be customized according to individual fitness levels,body composition,and anthropometric measurements.The innovative sex-specific regression models assessing MMS,MSS,and MES at EC and FC provide a framework for personalizing rehabilitation and skill-specific training strategies.
文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy(LDP)has emerged as the preferred approach for both benign and malignant lesions located in the pancreatic body and tail.Nevertheless,a notable deficiency persists in the absence of a standardized,procedure-specific metric for evaluating and comparing surgical quality.A composite measure termed“textbook outcome(TO)”,which encompasses key short-term endpoints,has been validated in laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy but has not yet been established in dedicated LDP cohorts.The definition and prediction of TO in this context could aid in facilitating cross-institutional benchmarking and fostering advancements in quality improvement.AIM To establish procedure-specific criteria for TO and identify independent predictors of TO failure in patients undergoing LDP.METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent LDP at a single high-volume pancreatic center between January 2015 and August 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.TO was defined as the absence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula(grade B/C),post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage(grade B/C),severe complications(Clavien-Dindo≥III),readmission within 30 days,and in-hospital or 30-day mortality.Multivariable logistic regression was employed to identify independent predictors of TO failure,and a nomogram was constructed and internally validated.RESULTS Among 405 eligible patients,286(70.6%)attained TO.Multivariable analysis revealed that female sex[odds ratio(OR)=0.62,95%confidence interval(CI):0.39-0.99]conferred a protective effect,while preoperative endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration(OR=2.66,95%CI:1.05-6.73),pancreatic portal hypertension(OR=2.81,95%CI:1.06-7.45),and cystic-solid(OR=2.51,95%CI:1.34-4.69)or solid lesions(OR=1.91,95%CI:1.06-3.44)were independently associated with TO failure(all P<0.05).The derived nomogram exhibited modest discrimination and calibration when assessed in both the training and validation datasets.CONCLUSION The proposed LDP-specific definition of TO is feasible and discriminative,and the developed nomogram provides an objective tool for individualized risk assessment.
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Traditional psychiatric diagnosis relies on subjective symptom assessment,lacking objective biomarkers that hinder early detection and personalized treatment.Plasma proteins and polygenic risk score(PRS),as potential predictive tools,hold promise for advancing early diagnosis of mental disorders.This study aims to evaluate the predictive potential of proteomic features and PRS in multiple mental illnesses(depression,schizophrenia,and post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)).Using participant data from the UK Biobank-Pharma Proteomics Project,we screen protein associations with mental disorders through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)analysis and construct a Cox regression risk prediction model by integrating the PRS.Additionally,we evaluate predictive performance using 6 machine learning methods and Kaplan-Meier survival curves.Our findings reveal distinct predictive patterns across dis-orders.For depression,integrating plasma proteins with PRS significantly improves prediction beyond the clinical model(C-index=0.6322).For schizophrenia,adding plasma proteins enhances predictive performance,whereas PRS provides no significant improvement.For PTSD,neither plasma proteins nor PRS add substantial predictive value beyond clinical variables.Risk stratification analysis demonstrat that all three mental disorders models can clearly distinguish high-risk from low-risk groups(depression:HR=2.34,P<0.001;schizophrenia:HR=5.47,P<0.001;PTSD:HR=3.02,P<0.001).Al-though it shows good performance in short-term prediction,its long-term prediction ability has decreased,and it needs to be further optimized in the future.This study underscores the differential utility of biomarkers across mental disorders and provides a rationale for disorder-specific predictive modeling in precision psychiatry.

文摘Establishing a Regional Marine Innovation Ecosystem(RMIE)is crucial for advancing China’s maritime power strategy.Concurrently,developing a competitive RMIE serves as a strategic lever to enhance the global competitiveness of China’s marine science sector.However,research on the competitiveness of RMIE is limited.To this end,this study constructs an evaluation index system based on ecological niche theory to assess the competitiveness of RMIE in China from 2008 to 2020.The findings indicate generally fluctuating upward trends in RMIE’s competitiveness,with Shandong,Jiangsu,and Guangdong showing relatively strong positions.Notably,there are significant intra-regional imbalances and inter-regional asynchrony in RMIE’s competitiveness across China’s three major marine economic circles.Recognizing that forecasting RMIE competitiveness can inform policy formulation,this paper proposes a systematic multivariate grey interval prediction model that incorporates spatial proximity effects.This model effectively captures the interval and uncertainty characteristics of RMIE’s competitiveness while considering spatial relationships among regions.Results from comparative analysis,robustness tests,and sensitivity analysis demonstrate its superior applicability and forecasting accuracy.Additionally,interval forecasts and scenario analyses suggest that RMIE competitiveness will maintain stable growth,although unbalanced and unsynchronized development is likely to persist.Overall,the approach developed for evaluating and forecasting RMIE competitiveness offers valuable insights for effective policy formulation.
