文摘Depression is a serious medical condition and is a leading cause of disability worldwide.Current depression diagnostics and assessment has significant limitations due to heterogeneity of clinical presentations,lack of objective assessments,and assessments that rely on patients'perceptions,memory,and recall.Digital phenotyping(DP),especially assessments conducted using mobile health technologies,has the potential to greatly improve accuracy of depression diagnostics by generating objectively measurable endophenotypes.DP includes two primary sources of digital data generated using ecological momentary assessments(EMA),assessments conducted in real-time,in subjects'natural environment.This includes active EMA,data that require active input by the subject,and passive EMA or passive sensing,data passively and automatically collected from subjects'personal digital devices.The raw data is then analyzed using machine learning algorithms to identify behavioral patterns that correlate with patients'clinical status.Preliminary investigations have also shown that linguistic and behavioral clues from social media data and data extracted from the electronic medical records can be used to predict depression status.These other sources of data and recent advances in telepsychiatry can further enhance DP of the depressed patients.Success of DP endeavors depends on critical contributions from both psychiatric and engineering disciplines.The current review integrates important perspectives from both disciplines and discusses parameters for successful interdisciplinary collaborations.A clinically-relevant model for incorporating DP in clinical setting is presented.This model,based on investigations conducted by our group,delineates development of a depression prediction system and its integration in clinical setting to enhance depression diagnostics and inform the clinical decision making process.Benefits,challenges,and opportunities pertaining to clinical integration of DP of depression diagnostics are discussed from interdisciplinary perspectives.

文摘In this work,we propose a new,fully automated system for multiclass skin lesion localization and classification using deep learning.The main challenge is to address the problem of imbalanced data classes,found in HAM10000,ISBI2018,and ISBI2019 datasets.Initially,we consider a pretrained deep neural network model,DarkeNet19,and fine-tune the parameters of third convolutional layer to generate the image gradients.All the visualized images are fused using a High-Frequency approach along with Multilayered Feed-Forward Neural Network(HFaFFNN).The resultant image is further enhanced by employing a log-opening based activation function to generate a localized binary image.Later,two pre-trained deep models,Darknet-53 and NasNet-mobile,are employed and fine-tuned according to the selected datasets.The concept of transfer learning is later explored to train both models,where the input feed is the generated localized lesion images.In the subsequent step,the extracted features are fused using parallel max entropy correlation(PMEC)technique.To avoid the problem of overfitting and to select the most discriminant feature information,we implement a hybrid optimization algorithm called entropy-kurtosis controlled whale optimization(EKWO)algorithm.The selected features are finally passed to the softmax classifier for the final classification.Three datasets are used for the experimental process,such as HAM10000,ISBI2018,and ISBI2019 to achieve an accuracy of 95.8%,97.1%,and 85.35%,respectively.

文摘This paper investigates the application ofmachine learning to develop a response model to cardiovascular problems and the use of AdaBoost which incorporates an application of Outlier Detection methodologies namely;Z-Score incorporated with GreyWolf Optimization(GWO)as well as Interquartile Range(IQR)coupled with Ant Colony Optimization(ACO).Using a performance index,it is shown that when compared with the Z-Score and GWO with AdaBoost,the IQR and ACO,with AdaBoost are not very accurate(89.0%vs.86.0%)and less discriminative(Area Under the Curve(AUC)score of 93.0%vs.91.0%).The Z-Score and GWO methods also outperformed the others in terms of precision,scoring 89.0%;and the recall was also found to be satisfactory,scoring 90.0%.Thus,the paper helps to reveal various specific benefits and drawbacks associated with different outlier detection and feature selection techniques,which can be important to consider in further improving various aspects of diagnostics in cardiovascular health.Collectively,these findings can enhance the knowledge of heart disease prediction and patient treatment using enhanced and innovativemachine learning(ML)techniques.These findings when combined improve patient therapy knowledge and cardiac disease prediction through the use of cutting-edge and improved machine learning approaches.This work lays the groundwork for more precise diagnosis models by highlighting the benefits of combining multiple optimization methodologies.Future studies should focus on maximizing patient outcomes and model efficacy through research on these combinations.
文摘The Brain Tumor(BT)is created by an uncontrollable rise of anomalous cells in brain tissue,and it consists of 2 types of cancers they are malignant and benign tumors.The benevolent BT does not affect the neighbouring healthy and normal tissue;however,the malignant could affect the adjacent brain tissues,which results in death.Initial recognition of BT is highly significant to protecting the patient’s life.Generally,the BT can be identified through the magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)scanning technique.But the radiotherapists are not offering effective tumor segmentation in MRI images because of the position and unequal shape of the tumor in the brain.Recently,ML has prevailed against standard image processing techniques.Several studies denote the superiority of machine learning(ML)techniques over standard techniques.Therefore,this study develops novel brain tumor detection and classification model using met heuristic optimization with machine learning(BTDC-MOML)model.To accomplish the detection of brain tumor effectively,a Computer-Aided Design(CAD)model using Machine Learning(ML)technique is proposed in this research manuscript.Initially,the input image pre-processing is performed using Gaborfiltering(GF)based noise removal,contrast enhancement,and skull stripping.Next,mayfly optimization with the Kapur’s thresholding based segmentation process takes place.For feature extraction proposes,local diagonal extreme patterns(LDEP)are exploited.At last,the Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost)model can be used for the BT classification process.The accuracy analysis is performed in terms of Learning accuracy,and the validation accuracy is performed to determine the efficiency of the proposed research work.The experimental validation of the proposed model demonstrates its promising performance over other existing methods.

文摘Early identification and treatment of stroke can greatly improve patient outcomes and quality of life.Although clinical tests such as the Cincinnati Pre-hospital Stroke Scale(CPSS)and the Face Arm Speech Test(FAST)are commonly used for stroke screening,accurate administration is dependent on specialized training.In this study,we proposed a novel multimodal deep learning approach,based on the FAST,for assessing suspected stroke patients exhibiting symptoms such as limb weakness,facial paresis,and speech disorders in acute settings.We collected a dataset comprising videos and audio recordings of emergency room patients performing designated limb movements,facial expressions,and speech tests based on the FAST.We compared the constructed deep learning model,which was designed to process multi-modal datasets,with six prior models that achieved good action classification performance,including the I3D,SlowFast,X3D,TPN,TimeSformer,and MViT.We found that the findings of our deep learning model had a higher clinical value compared with the other approaches.Moreover,the multi-modal model outperformed its single-module variants,highlighting the benefit of utilizing multiple types of patient data,such as action videos and speech audio.These results indicate that a multi-modal deep learning model combined with the FAST could greatly improve the accuracy and sensitivity of early stroke identification of stroke,thus providing a practical and powerful tool for assessing stroke patients in an emergency clinical setting.

文摘Traditional data-driven fault diagnosis methods depend on expert experience to manually extract effective fault features of signals,which has certain limitations.Conversely,deep learning techniques have gained prominence as a central focus of research in the field of fault diagnosis by strong fault feature extraction ability and end-to-end fault diagnosis efficiency.Recently,utilizing the respective advantages of convolution neural network(CNN)and Transformer in local and global feature extraction,research on cooperating the two have demonstrated promise in the field of fault diagnosis.However,the cross-channel convolution mechanism in CNN and the self-attention calculations in Transformer contribute to excessive complexity in the cooperative model.This complexity results in high computational costs and limited industrial applicability.To tackle the above challenges,this paper proposes a lightweight CNN-Transformer named as SEFormer for rotating machinery fault diagnosis.First,a separable multiscale depthwise convolution block is designed to extract and integrate multiscale feature information from different channel dimensions of vibration signals.Then,an efficient self-attention block is developed to capture critical fine-grained features of the signal from a global perspective.Finally,experimental results on the planetary gearbox dataset and themotor roller bearing dataset prove that the proposed framework can balance the advantages of robustness,generalization and lightweight compared to recent state-of-the-art fault diagnosis models based on CNN and Transformer.This study presents a feasible strategy for developing a lightweight rotating machinery fault diagnosis framework aimed at economical deployment.

文摘The Internet of Things(IoT)and mobile technology have significantly transformed healthcare by enabling real-time monitoring and diagnosis of patients.Recognizing Medical-Related Human Activities(MRHA)is pivotal for healthcare systems,particularly for identifying actions critical to patient well-being.However,challenges such as high computational demands,low accuracy,and limited adaptability persist in Human Motion Recognition(HMR).While some studies have integrated HMR with IoT for real-time healthcare applications,limited research has focused on recognizing MRHA as essential for effective patient monitoring.This study proposes a novel HMR method tailored for MRHA detection,leveraging multi-stage deep learning techniques integrated with IoT.The approach employs EfficientNet to extract optimized spatial features from skeleton frame sequences using seven Mobile Inverted Bottleneck Convolutions(MBConv)blocks,followed by Convolutional Long Short Term Memory(ConvLSTM)to capture spatio-temporal patterns.A classification module with global average pooling,a fully connected layer,and a dropout layer generates the final predictions.The model is evaluated on the NTU RGB+D 120 and HMDB51 datasets,focusing on MRHA such as sneezing,falling,walking,sitting,etc.It achieves 94.85%accuracy for cross-subject evaluations and 96.45%for cross-view evaluations on NTU RGB+D 120,along with 89.22%accuracy on HMDB51.Additionally,the system integrates IoT capabilities using a Raspberry Pi and GSM module,delivering real-time alerts via Twilios SMS service to caregivers and patients.This scalable and efficient solution bridges the gap between HMR and IoT,advancing patient monitoring,improving healthcare outcomes,and reducing costs.
文摘The Internet of Things(IoT)has orchestrated various domains in numerous applications,contributing significantly to the growth of the smart world,even in regions with low literacy rates,boosting socio-economic development.This study provides valuable insights into optimizing wireless communication,paving the way for a more connected and productive future in the mining industry.The IoT revolution is advancing across industries,but harsh geometric environments,including open-pit mines,pose unique challenges for reliable communication.The advent of IoT in the mining industry has significantly improved communication for critical operations through the use of Radio Frequency(RF)protocols such as Bluetooth,Wi-Fi,GSM/GPRS,Narrow Band(NB)-IoT,SigFox,ZigBee,and Long Range Wireless Area Network(LoRaWAN).This study addresses the optimization of network implementations by comparing two leading free-spreading IoT-based RF protocols such as ZigBee and LoRaWAN.Intensive field tests are conducted in various opencast mines to investigate coverage potential and signal attenuation.ZigBee is tested in the Tadicherla open-cast coal mine in India.Similarly,LoRaWAN field tests are conducted at one of the associated cement companies(ACC)in the limestone mine in Bargarh,India,covering both Indoor-toOutdoor(I2O)and Outdoor-to-Outdoor(O2O)environments.A robust framework of path-loss models,referred to as Free space,Egli,Okumura-Hata,Cost231-Hata and Ericsson models,combined with key performance metrics,is employed to evaluate the patterns of signal attenuation.Extensive field testing and careful data analysis revealed that the Egli model is the most consistent path-loss model for the ZigBee protocol in an I2O environment,with a coefficient of determination(R^(2))of 0.907,balanced error metrics such as Normalized Root Mean Square Error(NRMSE)of 0.030,Mean Square Error(MSE)of 4.950,Mean Absolute Percentage Error(MAPE)of 0.249 and Scatter Index(SI)of 2.723.In the O2O scenario,the Ericsson model showed superior performance,with the highest R^(2)value of 0.959,supported by strong correlation metrics:NRMSE of 0.026,MSE of 8.685,MAPE of 0.685,Mean Absolute Deviation(MAD)of 20.839 and SI of 2.194.For the LoRaWAN protocol,the Cost-231 model achieved the highest R^(2)value of 0.921 in the I2O scenario,complemented by the lowest metrics:NRMSE of 0.018,MSE of 1.324,MAPE of 0.217,MAD of 9.218 and SI of 1.238.In the O2O environment,the Okumura-Hata model achieved the highest R^(2)value of 0.978,indicating a strong fit with metrics NRMSE of 0.047,MSE of 27.807,MAPE of 27.494,MAD of 37.287 and SI of 3.927.This advancement in reliable communication networks promises to transform the opencast landscape into networked signal attenuation.These results support decision-making for mining needs and ensure reliable communications even in the face of formidable obstacles.
