RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Clinical notes contain contextualized information beyond structured data related to patients' past and current health status. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to design a multimodal deep learning approach to improve the evaluation precision of hospital outcomes for heart failure (HF) using admission clinical notes and easily collected tabular data. METHODS: Data for the development and validation of the multimodal model were retrospectively derived from 3 open-access US databases, including the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III v1.4 (MIMIC-III) and MIMIC-IV v1.0, collected from a teaching hospital from 2001 to 2019, and the eICU Collaborative Research Database v1.2, collected from 208 hospitals from 2014 to 2015. The study cohorts consisted of all patients with critical HF. The clinical notes, including chief complaint, history of present illness, physical examination, medical history, and admission medication, as well as clinical variables recorded in electronic health records, were analyzed. We developed a deep learning mortality prediction model for in-hospital patients, which underwent complete internal, prospective, and external evaluation. The Integrated Gradients and SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) methods were used to analyze the importance of risk factors. RESULTS: The study included 9989 (16.4%) patients in the development set, 2497 (14.1%) patients in the internal validation set, 1896 (18.3%) in the prospective validation set, and 7432 (15%) patients in the external validation set. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the models was 0.838 (95% CI 0.827-0.851), 0.849 (95% CI 0.841-0.856), and 0.767 (95% CI 0.762-0.772), for the internal, prospective, and external validation sets, respectively. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the multimodal model outperformed that of the unimodal models in all test sets, and tabular data contributed to higher discrimination. The medical history and physical examination were more useful than other factors in early assessments. CONCLUSIONS: The multimodal deep learning model for combining admission notes and clinical tabular data showed promising efficacy as a potentially novel method in evaluating the risk of mortality in patients with HF, providing more accurate and timely decision support.

The pace of modern life is accelerating, the pressure of life is gradually increasing, and the long-term accumulation of mental fatigue poses a threat to health. By analyzing physiological signals and parameters, this paper proposes a method that can identify the state of mental fatigue, which helps to maintain a healthy life. The method proposed in this paper is a new recognition method of psychological fatigue state of electrocardiogram signals based on convolutional neural network and long short-term memory. Firstly, the convolution layer of one-dimensional convolutional neural network model is used to extract local features, the key information is extracted through pooling layer, and some redundant data is removed. Then, the extracted features are used as input to the long short-term memory model to further fuse the ECG features. Finally, by integrating the key information through the full connection layer, the accurate recognition of mental fatigue state is successfully realized. The results show that compared with traditional machine learning algorithms, the proposed method significantly improves the accuracy of mental fatigue recognition to 96.3%, which provides a reliable basis for the early warning and evaluation of mental fatigue.

The automatic segmentation of auricular acupoint divisions is the basis for realizing intelligent auricular acupoint therapy. However, due to the large number of ear acupuncture areas and the lack of clear boundary, existing solutions face challenges in automatically segmenting auricular acupoints. Therefore, a fast and accurate automatic segmentation approach of auricular acupuncture divisions is needed. A deep learning-based approach for automatic segmentation of auricular acupoint divisions is proposed, which mainly includes three stages: ear contour detection, anatomical part segmentation and keypoints localization, and image post-processing. In the anatomical part segmentation and keypoints localization stages, K-YOLACT was proposed to improve operating efficiency. Experimental results showed that the proposed approach achieved automatic segmentation of 66 acupuncture points in the frontal image of the ear, and the segmentation effect was better than existing solutions. At the same time, the mean average precision (mAP) of the anatomical part segmentation of the K-YOLACT was 83.2%, mAP of keypoints localization was 98.1%, and the running speed was significantly improved. The implementation of this approach provides a reliable solution for the accurate segmentation of auricular point images, and provides strong technical support for the modern development of traditional Chinese medicine.

Visual navigation based on deep reinforcement learning requires a large amount of interaction with the environment, and due to the reward sparsity, it requires a large amount of training time and computational resources. In this paper, we focus on sample efficiency and navigation performance and propose a framework for visual navigation based on multiple self-supervised auxiliary tasks. Specifically, we present an LSTM-based dynamics model and an attention-based image-reconstruction model as auxiliary tasks. These self-supervised auxiliary tasks enable agents to learn navigation strategies directly from the original high-dimensional images without relying on ResNet features by constructing latent representation learning. Experimental results show that without manually designed features and prior demonstrations, our method significantly improves the training efficiency and outperforms the baseline algorithms on the simulator and real-world image datasets.
RESUMO
The breakthrough of wireless energy transmission (WET) technology has greatly promoted the wireless rechargeable sensor networks (WRSNs). A promising method to overcome the energy constraint problem in WRSNs is mobile charging by employing a mobile charger to charge sensors via WET. Recently, more and more studies have been conducted for mobile charging scheduling under dynamic charging environments, ignoring the consideration of the joint charging sequence scheduling and charging ratio control (JSSRC) optimal design. This paper will propose a novel attention-shared multi-agent actor-critic-based deep reinforcement learning approach for JSSRC (AMADRL-JSSRC). In AMADRL-JSSRC, we employ two heterogeneous agents named charging sequence scheduler and charging ratio controller with an independent actor network and critic network. Meanwhile, we design the reward function for them, respectively, by considering the tour length and the number of dead sensors. The AMADRL-JSSRC trains decentralized policies in multi-agent environments, using a centralized computing critic network to share an attention mechanism, and it selects relevant policy information for each agent at every charging decision. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed AMADRL-JSSRC can efficiently prolong the lifetime of the network and reduce the number of death sensors compared with the baseline algorithms.
RESUMO
Energy storage is an important adjustment method to improve the economy and reliability of a power system. Due to the complexity of the coupling relationship of elements such as the power source, load, and energy storage in the microgrid, there are problems of insufficient performance in terms of economic operation and efficient dispatching. In view of this, this paper proposes an energy storage configuration optimization model based on reinforcement learning and battery state of health assessment. Firstly, a quantitative assessment of battery health life loss based on deep learning was performed. Secondly, on the basis of considering comprehensive energy complementarity, a two-layer optimal configuration model was designed to optimize the capacity configuration and dispatch operation. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed method in microgrid energy storage planning and operation was verified by experimentation. By integrating reinforcement learning and traditional optimization methods, the proposed method did not rely on the accurate prediction of the power supply and load and can make decisions based only on the real-time information of the microgrid. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of the proposed method and existing methods were analyzed, and the results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the performance of dynamic planning for energy storage in microgrids.
RESUMO
Hot metal silicon content (HMSC) is usually utilized to measure the quality of hot metal and reflect the thermal status of blast furnace (BF) system. However, most state-of-the-arts ignore the time-varying behavior of BF ironmaking process, which are impractical. Accordingly, a novel dual ensemble online sequential extreme learning machine (DE-OS-ELM) is proposed to establish the online estimation model of HMSC, which can update the data-driven model with the latest operation data. Specifically, an online learning method with recursive modification is first proposed based on OS-ELM (referred to as RM-OS-ELM) to address the modeling with uncertainty. To heel, a dynamic forgetting factor is presented for the dynamic tracking capability enhancement and convergence acceleration. Furthermore, a final updating rule for sequential implementation is constructed by combining the output weights of OS-ELM and RM-OS-ELM based on their corresponding contributions on modeling. Considering the modeling accuracy and curve trend consistency, multiobjective parameter optimization model is also implemented to achieve the satisfactory performance. By taking the proposed DE-OS-ELM, the estimation model of HMSC is established using industrial data. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that DE-OS-ELM-based HMSC estimation model is more feasible and practical.
RESUMO
Battery energy storage technology is an important part of the industrial parks to ensure the stable power supply, and its rough charging and discharging mode is difficult to meet the application requirements of energy saving, emission reduction, cost reduction, and efficiency increase. As a classic method of deep reinforcement learning, the deep Q-network is widely used to solve the problem of user-side battery energy storage charging and discharging. In some scenarios, its performance has reached the level of human expert. However, the updating of storage priority in experience memory often lags behind updating of Q-network parameters. In response to the need for lean management of battery charging and discharging, this paper proposes an improved deep Q-network to update the priority of sequence samples and the training performance of deep neural network, which reduces the cost of charging and discharging action and energy consumption in the park. The proposed method considers factors such as real-time electricity price, battery status, and time. The energy consumption state, charging and discharging behavior, reward function, and neural network structure are designed to meet the flexible scheduling of charging and discharging strategies, and can finally realize the optimization of battery energy storage benefits. The proposed method can solve the problem of priority update lag, and improve the utilization efficiency and learning performance of the experience pool samples. The paper selects electricity price data from the United States and some regions of China for simulation experiments. Experimental results show that compared with the traditional algorithm, the proposed approach can achieve better performance in both electricity price systems, thereby greatly reducing the cost of battery energy storage and providing a stronger guarantee for the safe and stable operation of battery energy storage systems in industrial parks.
RESUMO
Automatic heartbeat classification via electrocardiogram (ECG) can help diagnose and prevent cardiovascular diseases in time. Many classification approaches have been proposed for heartbeat classification, based on feature extraction. However, the existing approaches face the challenges of high feature dimensions and slow recognition speeds. In this paper, we propose an efficient extreme learning machine (ELM) approach for heartbeat classification with multiple classes, based on the hybrid time-domain and wavelet time-frequency features. The proposed approach contains two sequential modules: (1) feature extraction of heartbeat signals, including RR interval features in the time-domain and wavelet time-frequency features, and (2) heartbeat classification using ELM based on the extracted features. RR interval features are calculated to reflect the dynamic characteristics of heartbeat signals. Discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is used to decompose the heartbeat signals and extract the time-frequency features of the heartbeat signals along the timeline. ELM is a single-hidden layer feedforward neural network with the hidden layer parameters randomly generated in advance and the output layer parameters calculated optimally using the least-square algorithm directly using the training samples. ELM is used as the heartbeat classification algorithm due to its high accuracy training accuracy, fast training speed, and good generalization ability. Experimental testing is carried out using the public MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset to perform a 16-class classification. Experimental results show that the proposed approach achieves a superior classification accuracy with fast training and recognition speeds, compared with existing classification algorithms.

Grey wolf optimizer (GWO) is a meta-heuristic algorithm inspired by the hierarchy of grey wolves (Canis lupus). Fireworks algorithm (FWA) is a nature-inspired optimization method mimicking the explosion process of fireworks for optimization problems. Both of them have a strong optimal search capability. However, in some cases, GWO converges to the local optimum and FWA converges slowly. In this paper, a new hybrid algorithm (named as FWGWO) is proposed, which fuses the advantages of these two algorithms to achieve global optima effectively. The proposed algorithm combines the exploration ability of the fireworks algorithm with the exploitation ability of the grey wolf optimizer (GWO) by setting a balance coefficient. In order to test the competence of the proposed hybrid FWGWO, 16 well-known benchmark functions having a wide range of dimensions and varied complexities are used in this paper. The results of the proposed FWGWO are compared to nine other algorithms, including the standard FWA, the native GWO, enhanced grey wolf optimizer (EGWO), and augmented grey wolf optimizer (AGWO). The experimental results show that the FWGWO effectively improves the global optimal search capability and convergence speed of the GWO and FWA.

Recently, people have become more and more interested in wireless sensing applications, among which indoor localization is one of the most attractive. Generally, indoor localization can be classified as device-based and device-free localization (DFL). The former requires a target to carry certain devices or sensors to assist the localization process, whereas the latter has no such requirement, which merely requires the wireless network to be deployed around the environment to sense the target, rendering it much more challenging. Channel State Information (CSI)-a kind of information collected in the physical layer-is composed of multiple subcarriers, boasting highly fined granularity, which has gradually become a focus of indoor localization applications. In this paper, we propose an approach to performing DFL tasks by exploiting the uncertainty of CSI. We respectively utilize the CSI amplitudes and phases of multiple communication links to construct fingerprints, each of which is a set of multivariate Gaussian distributions that reflect the uncertainty information of CSI. Additionally, we propose a kind of combined fingerprints to simultaneously utilize the CSI amplitudes and phases, hoping to improve localization accuracy. Then, we adopt a Kullback-Leibler divergence (KL-divergence) based kernel function to calculate the probabilities that a testing fingerprint belongs to all the reference locations. Next, to localize the target, we utilize the computed probabilities as weights to average the reference locations. Experimental results show that the proposed approach, whatever type of fingerprints is used, outperforms the existing Pilot and Nuzzer systems in two typical indoor environments. We conduct extensive experiments to explore the effects of different parameters on localization performance, and the results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.
RESUMO
Autonomic neural system (ANS) regulates the circulation to provide optimal perfusion of every organ in accordance with its metabolic needs, and the quantitative assessment of autonomic regulation is crucial for personalized medicine in cardiovascular diseases. In this paper, we propose the Dystatis to quantitatively evaluate autonomic regulation of the human cardiac system, based on homeostatis and probabilistic graphic model, where homeostatis explains ANS regulation while the probability graphic model systematically defines the regulation process for quantitative assessment. The indices and measurement methods for three well-designed scenarios are also illustrated to evaluate the proposed Dystatis: (1) heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure variability (BPV), and respiration synchronization (Synch) in resting situation; (2) chronotropic competence indices (CCI) in graded exercise testing; and (3) baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), sympathetic nerve activity (SNA), and parasympathetic nerve activity (PNA) in orthostatic testing. The previous clinical results have shown that the proposed method and indices for autonomic cardiac system regulation have great potential in prediction, diagnosis, and rehabilitation of cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, and diabetes.

The classification of electrocardiograms (ECG) plays an important role in the clinical diagnosis of heart disease. This paper proposes an effective system development and implementation for ECG classification based on faster regions with a convolutional neural network (Faster R-CNN) algorithm. The original one-dimensional ECG signals contain the preprocessed patient ECG signals and some ECG recordings from the MIT-BIH database in this experiment. Each ECG beat of one-dimensional ECG signals was transformed into a two-dimensional image for experimental training sets and test sets. As a result, we classified the ECG beats into five categories with an average accuracy of 99.21%. In addition, we did a comparative experiment using the one versus rest support vector machine (OVR SVM) algorithm, and the classification accuracy of the proposed Faster R-CNN was shown to be 2.59% higher.

Collaborative target tracking is one of the most important applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), in which the network must rely on sensor scheduling to balance the tracking accuracy and energy consumption, due to the limited network resources for sensing, communication, and computation. With the recent development of energy acquisition technologies, the building of WSNs based on energy harvesting has become possible to overcome the limitation of battery energy in WSNs, where theoretically the lifetime of the network could be extended to infinite. However, energy-harvesting WSNs pose new technical challenges for collaborative target tracking on how to schedule sensors over the infinite horizon under the restriction on limited sensor energy harvesting capabilities. In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive dynamic programming (ADP)-based multi-sensor scheduling algorithm (ADP-MSS) for collaborative target tracking for energy-harvesting WSNs. ADP-MSS can schedule multiple sensors for each time step over an infinite horizon to achieve high tracking accuracy, based on the extended Kalman filter (EKF) for target state prediction and estimation. Theoretical analysis shows the optimality of ADP-MSS, and simulation results demonstrate its superior tracking accuracy compared with an ADP-based single-sensor scheduling scheme and a simulated-annealing based multi-sensor scheduling scheme.
RESUMO
Gas utilization ratio (GUR) is an important indicator that is used to evaluate the energy consumption of blast furnaces (BFs). Currently, the existing methods cannot predict the GUR accurately. In this paper, we present a novel data-driven model for predicting the GUR. The proposed approach utilized both the TS fuzzy neural network (TS-FNN) and the particle swarm algorithm (PSO) to predict the GUR. The particle swarm algorithm (PSO) is applied to optimize the parameters of the TS-FNN in order to decrease the error caused by the inaccurate initial parameter. This paper also applied the box graph (Box-plot) method to eliminate the abnormal value of the raw data during the data preprocessing. This method can deal with the data which does not obey the normal distribution which is caused by the complex industrial environments. The prediction results demonstrate that the optimization model based on PSO and the TS-FNN approach achieves higher prediction accuracy compared with the TS-FNN model and SVM model and the proposed approach can accurately predict the GUR of the blast furnace, providing an effective way for the on-line blast furnace distribution control.
RESUMO
The concentration of alumina in the electrolyte is of great significance during the production of aluminum. The amount of the alumina concentration may lead to unbalanced material distribution and low production efficiency and affect the stability of the aluminum reduction cell and current efficiency. The existing methods cannot meet the needs for online measurement because industrial aluminum electrolysis has the characteristics of high temperature, strong magnetic field, coupled parameters, and high nonlinearity. Currently, there are no sensors or equipment that can detect the alumina concentration on line. Most companies acquire the alumina concentration from the electrolyte samples which are analyzed through an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. To solve the problem, the paper proposes a soft sensing model based on a kernel extreme learning machine algorithm that takes the kernel function into the extreme learning machine. K-fold cross validation is used to estimate the generalization error. The proposed soft sensing algorithm can detect alumina concentration by the electrical signals such as voltages and currents of the anode rods. The predicted results show that the proposed approach can give more accurate estimations of alumina concentration with faster learning speed compared with the other methods such as the basic ELM, BP, and SVM.
RESUMO
Gas utilization ratio (GUR) is an important indicator used to measure the operating status and energy consumption of blast furnaces (BFs). In this paper, we present a soft-sensor approach, i.e., a novel online sequential extreme learning machine (OS-ELM) named DU-OS-ELM, to establish a data-driven model for GUR prediction. In DU-OS-ELM, firstly, the old collected data are discarded gradually and the newly acquired data are given more attention through a novel dynamic forgetting factor (DFF), depending on the estimation errors to enhance the dynamic tracking ability. Furthermore, we develop an updated selection strategy (USS) to judge whether the model needs to be updated with the newly coming data, so that the proposed approach is more in line with the actual production situation. Then, the convergence analysis of the proposed DU-OS-ELM is presented to ensure the estimation of output weight converge to the true value with the new data arriving. Meanwhile, the proposed DU-OS-ELM is applied to build a soft-sensor model to predict GUR. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed DU-OS-ELM obtains better generalization performance and higher prediction accuracy compared with a number of existing related approaches using the real production data from a BF and the created GUR prediction model can provide an effective guidance for further optimization operation.
RESUMO
We advocate for and introduce LEARNSense, a framework for learning analytics using commodity wearable devices to capture learner's physical actions and accordingly infer learner context (e.g., student activities and engagement status in class). Our work is motivated by the observations that: (a) the fine-grained individual-specific learner actions are crucial to understand learners and their context information; (b) sensor data available on the latest wearable devices (e.g., wrist-worn and eye wear devices) can effectively recognize learner actions and help to infer learner context information; (c) the commodity wearable devices that are widely available on the market can provide a hassle-free and non-intrusive solution. Following the above observations and under the proposed framework, we design and implement a sensor-based learner context collector running on the wearable devices. The latest data mining and sensor data processing techniques are employed to detect different types of learner actions and context information. Furthermore, we detail all of the above efforts by offering a novel and exemplary use case: it successfully provides the accurate detection of student actions and infers the student engagement states in class. The specifically designed learner context collector has been implemented on the commodity wrist-worn device. Based on the collected and inferred learner information, the novel intervention and incentivizing feedback are introduced into the system service. Finally, a comprehensive evaluation with the real-world experiments, surveys and interviews demonstrates the effectiveness and impact of the proposed framework and this use case. The F1 score for the student action classification tasks achieve 0.9, and the system can effectively differentiate the defined three learner states. Finally, the survey results show that the learners are satisfied with the use of our system (mean score of 3.7 with a standard deviation of 0.55).

Device-free localization (DFL) is becoming one of the new technologies in wireless localization field, due to its advantage that the target to be localized does not need to be attached to any electronic device. In the radio-frequency (RF) DFL system, radio transmitters (RTs) and radio receivers (RXs) are used to sense the target collaboratively, and the location of the target can be estimated by fusing the changes of the received signal strength (RSS) measurements associated with the wireless links. In this paper, we will propose an extreme learning machine (ELM) approach for DFL, to improve the efficiency and the accuracy of the localization algorithm. Different from the conventional machine learning approaches for wireless localization, in which the above differential RSS measurements are trivially used as the only input features, we introduce the parameterized geometrical representation for an affected link, which consists of its geometrical intercepts and differential RSS measurement. Parameterized geometrical feature extraction (PGFE) is performed for the affected links and the features are used as the inputs of ELM. The proposed PGFE-ELM for DFL is trained in the offline phase and performed for real-time localization in the online phase, where the estimated location of the target is obtained through the created ELM. PGFE-ELM has the advantages that the affected links used by ELM in the online phase can be different from those used for training in the offline phase, and can be more robust to deal with the uncertain combination of the detectable wireless links. Experimental results show that the proposed PGFE-ELM can improve the localization accuracy and learning speed significantly compared with a number of the existing machine learning and DFL approaches, including the weighted K-nearest neighbor (WKNN), support vector machine (SVM), back propagation neural network (BPNN), as well as the well-known radio tomographic imaging (RTI) DFL approach.
RESUMO
Energy-based source localization is an important problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs), which has been studied actively in the literature. Numerous localization algorithms, e.g., maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) and nonlinear-least-squares (NLS) methods, have been reported. In the literature, there are relevant review papers for localization in WSNs, e.g., for distance-based localization. However, not much work related to energy-based source localization is covered in the existing review papers. Energy-based methods are proposed and specially designed for a WSN due to its limited sensor capabilities. This paper aims to give a comprehensive review of these different algorithms for energy-based single and multiple source localization problems, their merits and demerits and to point out possible future research directions.
