文摘Machine learning(ML)is increasingly applied for medical image processing with appropriate learning paradigms.These applications include analyzing images of various organs,such as the brain,lung,eye,etc.,to identify specific flaws/diseases for diagnosis.The primary concern of ML applications is the precise selection of flexible image features for pattern detection and region classification.Most of the extracted image features are irrelevant and lead to an increase in computation time.Therefore,this article uses an analytical learning paradigm to design a Congruent Feature Selection Method to select the most relevant image features.This process trains the learning paradigm using similarity and correlation-based features over different textural intensities and pixel distributions.The similarity between the pixels over the various distribution patterns with high indexes is recommended for disease diagnosis.Later,the correlation based on intensity and distribution is analyzed to improve the feature selection congruency.Therefore,the more congruent pixels are sorted in the descending order of the selection,which identifies better regions than the distribution.Now,the learning paradigm is trained using intensity and region-based similarity to maximize the chances of selection.Therefore,the probability of feature selection,regardless of the textures and medical image patterns,is improved.This process enhances the performance of ML applications for different medical image processing.The proposed method improves the accuracy,precision,and training rate by 13.19%,10.69%,and 11.06%,respectively,compared to other models for the selected dataset.The mean error and selection time is also reduced by 12.56%and 13.56%,respectively,compared to the same models and dataset.

文摘Gas hydrate(GH)is an unconventional resource estimated at 1000-120,000 trillion m^(3)worldwide.Research on GH is ongoing to determine its geological and flow characteristics for commercial produc-tion.After two large-scale drilling expeditions to study the GH-bearing zone in the Ulleung Basin,the mineral composition of 488 sediment samples was analyzed using X-ray diffraction(XRD).Because the analysis is costly and dependent on experts,a machine learning model was developed to predict the mineral composition using XRD intensity profiles as input data.However,the model’s performance was limited because of improper preprocessing of the intensity profile.Because preprocessing was applied to each feature,the intensity trend was not preserved even though this factor is the most important when analyzing mineral composition.In this study,the profile was preprocessed for each sample using min-max scaling because relative intensity is critical for mineral analysis.For 49 test data among the 488 data,the convolutional neural network(CNN)model improved the average absolute error and coefficient of determination by 41%and 46%,respectively,than those of CNN model with feature-based pre-processing.This study confirms that combining preprocessing for each sample with CNN is the most efficient approach for analyzing XRD data.The developed model can be used for the compositional analysis of sediment samples from the Ulleung Basin and the Korea Plateau.In addition,the overall procedure can be applied to any XRD data of sediments worldwide.

文摘Deep learning now underpins many state-of-the-art systems for biomedical image and signal processing,enabling automated lesion detection,physiological monitoring,and therapy planning with accuracy that rivals expert performance.This survey reviews the principal model families as convolutional,recurrent,generative,reinforcement,autoencoder,and transfer-learning approaches as emphasising how their architectural choices map to tasks such as segmentation,classification,reconstruction,and anomaly detection.A dedicated treatment of multimodal fusion networks shows how imaging features can be integrated with genomic profiles and clinical records to yield more robust,context-aware predictions.To support clinical adoption,we outline post-hoc explainability techniques(Grad-CAM,SHAP,LIME)and describe emerging intrinsically interpretable designs that expose decision logic to end users.Regulatory guidance from the U.S.FDA,the European Medicines Agency,and the EU AI Act is summarised,linking transparency and lifecycle-monitoring requirements to concrete development practices.Remaining challenges as data imbalance,computational cost,privacy constraints,and cross-domain generalization are discussed alongside promising solutions such as federated learning,uncertainty quantification,and lightweight 3-D architectures.The article therefore offers researchers,clinicians,and policymakers a concise,practice-oriented roadmap for deploying trustworthy deep-learning systems in healthcare.

文摘Three-dimensional(3D)single molecule localization microscopy(SMLM)plays an important role in biomedical applications,but its data processing is very complicated.Deep learning is a potential tool to solve this problem.As the state of art 3D super-resolution localization algorithm based on deep learning,FD-DeepLoc algorithm reported recently still has a gap with the expected goal of online image processing,even though it has greatly improved the data processing throughput.In this paper,a new algorithm Lite-FD-DeepLoc is developed on the basis of FD-DeepLoc algorithm to meet the online image processing requirements of 3D SMLM.This new algorithm uses the feature compression method to reduce the parameters of the model,and combines it with pipeline programming to accelerate the inference process of the deep learning model.The simulated data processing results show that the image processing speed of Lite-FD-DeepLoc is about twice as fast as that of FD-DeepLoc with a slight decrease in localization accuracy,which can realize real-time processing of 256×256 pixels size images.The results of biological experimental data processing imply that Lite-FD-DeepLoc can successfully analyze the data based on astigmatism and saddle point engineering,and the global resolution of the reconstructed image is equivalent to or even better than FD-DeepLoc algorithm.

文摘Weather forecasts from numerical weather prediction models play a central role in solar energy forecasting,where a cascade of physics-based models is used in a model chain approach to convert forecasts of solar irradiance to solar power production.Ensemble simulations from such weather models aim to quantify uncertainty in the future development of the weather,and can be used to propagate this uncertainty through the model chain to generate probabilistic solar energy predictions.However,ensemble prediction systems are known to exhibit systematic errors,and thus require post-processing to obtain accurate and reliable probabilistic forecasts.The overarching aim of our study is to systematically evaluate different strategies to apply post-processing in model chain approaches with a specific focus on solar energy:not applying any post-processing at all;post-processing only the irradiance predictions before the conversion;post-processing only the solar power predictions obtained from the model chain;or applying post-processing in both steps.In a case study based on a benchmark dataset for the Jacumba solar plant in the U.S.,we develop statistical and machine learning methods for postprocessing ensemble predictions of global horizontal irradiance(GHI)and solar power generation.Further,we propose a neural-network-based model for direct solar power forecasting that bypasses the model chain.Our results indicate that postprocessing substantially improves the solar power generation forecasts,in particular when post-processing is applied to the power predictions.The machine learning methods for post-processing slightly outperform the statistical methods,and the direct forecasting approach performs comparably to the post-processing strategies.
文摘This study aims to enhance automated crop detection using high-resolution Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)imagery by integrating the Visible Atmospherically Resistant Index(VARI)with deep learning models.The primary challenge addressed is the detection of bananas interplanted with betel nuts,a scenario where traditional image processing techniques struggle due to color similarities and canopy overlap.The research explores the effectiveness of three deep learning models—Single Shot MultiBox Detector(SSD),You Only Look Once version 3(YOLOv3),and Faster Region-Based Convolutional Neural Network(Faster RCNN)—using Red,Green,Blue(RGB)and VARI images for banana detection.Results show that VARI significantly improves detection accuracy,with YOLOv3 achieving the best performance,achieving a precision of 73.77%,recall of 100%,and reduced training time by 95 seconds.Additionally,the average Intersection over Union(IoU)increased by 4%–25%across models with VARI-enhanced images.This study confirms that incorporating VARI improves the performance of deep learning models,offering a promising solution for precise crop detection in complex agricultural environments.

文摘The low-cost industrial application of perovskite solar cells requires an environmentally friendly and scalable fabrication process.However,achieving high-quality perovskite layers under these requirements is challenging because the multi-step optimization with multiple intercorrelated experimental variables typically requires the development of a new deposition process.To address this,we propose a two-step machine learning approach for creating a new method for perovskite deposition in ambient air and antisolvent-free processing with a low-toxicity solvent triethyl phosphate(TEP).The two-step machine learning approach integrates a precursor solubility prediction model and a device-efficiency prediction model within a Bayesian optimization framework.This framework enables the information of solubility to be passed as a constraint function when optimizing the efficiency of perovskite solar cells,facilitating a quick optimization of a TEP-based,vacuum-quenching-assisted deposition in ambient air.Furthermore,the optimal precursor solution is subsequently applied to FAPbI_(3) perovskite devices,achieving a device power conversion efficiency of 24.26%under ambient conditions(23℃and~50%relative humidity).This work demonstrates the promising potential of machine learning to expedite new fabrication processes to fulfill industrial needs.

文摘The increased accessibility of social networking services(SNSs)has facilitated communication and information sharing among users.However,it has also heightened concerns about digital safety,particularly for children and adolescents who are increasingly exposed to online grooming crimes.Early and accurate identification of grooming conversations is crucial in preventing long-term harm to victims.However,research on grooming detection in South Korea remains limited,as existing models trained primarily on English text and fail to reflect the unique linguistic features of SNS conversations,leading to inaccurate classifications.To address these issues,this study proposes a novel framework that integrates optical character recognition(OCR)technology with KcELECTRA,a deep learning-based natural language processing(NLP)model that shows excellent performance in processing the colloquial Korean language.In the proposed framework,the KcELECTRA model is fine-tuned by an extensive dataset,including Korean social media conversations,Korean ethical verification data from AI-Hub,and Korean hate speech data from Hug-gingFace,to enable more accurate classification of text extracted from social media conversation images.Experimental results show that the proposed framework achieves an accuracy of 0.953,outperforming existing transformer-based models.Furthermore,OCR technology shows high accuracy in extracting text from images,demonstrating that the proposed framework is effective for online grooming detection.The proposed framework is expected to contribute to the more accurate detection of grooming text and the prevention of grooming-related crimes.

文摘The big data generated by tunnel boring machines(TBMs)are widely used to reveal complex rock-machine interactions by machine learning(ML)algorithms.Data preprocessing plays a crucial role in improving ML accuracy.For this,a TBM big data preprocessing method in ML was proposed in the present study.It emphasized the accurate division of TBM tunneling cycle and the optimization method of feature extraction.Based on the data collected from a TBM water conveyance tunnel in China,its effectiveness was demonstrated by application in predicting TBM performance.Firstly,the Score-Kneedle(S-K)method was proposed to divide a TBM tunneling cycle into five phases.Conducted on 500 TBM tunneling cycles,the S-K method accurately divided all five phases in 458 cycles(accuracy of 91.6%),which is superior to the conventional duration division method(accuracy of 74.2%).Additionally,the S-K method accurately divided the stable phase in 493 cycles(accuracy of 98.6%),which is superior to two state-of-the-art division methods,namely the histogram discriminant method(accuracy of 94.6%)and the cumulative sum change point detection method(accuracy of 92.8%).Secondly,features were extracted from the divided phases.Specifically,TBM tunneling resistances were extracted from the free rotating phase and free advancing phase.The resistances were subtracted from the total forces to represent the true rock-fragmentation forces.The secant slope and the mean value were extracted as features of the increasing phase and stable phase,respectively.Finally,an ML model integrating a deep neural network and genetic algorithm(GA-DNN)was established to learn the preprocessed data.The GA-DNN used 6 secant slope features extracted from the increasing phase to predict the mean field penetration index(FPI)and torque penetration index(TPI)in the stable phase,guiding TBM drivers to make better decisions in advance.The results indicate that the proposed TBM big data preprocessing method can improve prediction accuracy significantly(improving R2s of TPI and FPI on the test dataset from 0.7716 to 0.9178 and from 0.7479 to 0.8842,respectively).
文摘This study investigates how orthographic,semantic and contextual variables—including word length,concreteness,and contextual support—impact on the processing and learning of new words in a second language(L2)when first encountered during reading.Students learning English as a foreign language(EFL)were recruited to read sentences for comprehension,embedded with unfamiliar L2 words that occurred once.Immediately after this,they received a form recognition test,a meaning recall test,and a meaning recognition test.Eye-movement data showed significant effects of word length on both early and late processing of novel words,along with effects of concreteness only on late-processing eye-tracking measures.Informative contexts were read slower than neutral contexts,yet contextual support did not show any direct influence on the processing of novel words.Interestingly,initial learning of abstract words was better than concrete words in terms of form and meaning recognition.Attentional processing of novel L2 words,operationalized by total reading time,positively predicted L2 learners’recognition of new orthographic forms.Taken together,these results suggest:1)orthographic,semantic and contextual factors play distinct roles for initial processing and learning of novel words;2)online processing of novel words contributes to L2 learners’initial knowledge of unfamiliar lexical items acquired from reading.
