Machine learning and deep learning—A review for ecologists

Abstract The popularity of machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL) and artificial intelligence (AI) has risen sharply in recent years. Despite this spike in popularity, the inner workings of ML and DL algorithms are often perceived as opa...

Machine Learning

Machine learning techniques have the potential of alleviating the complexity of knowledge acquisition. This book presents today’s state and development tendencies of machine learning. It is a multi-author book. Taking into account the large...

Development of an In Vitro Permeation Test Framework For Naloxone Hydrochloride Intranasal Spray: Establishing IVIVR for Bioequivalence Assessment.

Deep Learning-Based Visual Complexity Analysis of Electroencephalography Time-Frequency Images: Can It Localize the Epileptogenic Zone in the Brain?

In drug-resistant epilepsy, a visual inspection of intracranial electroencephalography (iEEG) signals is often needed to localize the epileptogenic zone (EZ) and guide neurosurgery. The visual assessment of iEEG time-frequency (TF) images i...

Source apportionment and stochastic evaluation of soil contamination and human health risks of potentially toxic elements in Nangodi, northern Ghana

Abstract Artisanal and Small-Scale Mining (ASM) is a critical driver of soil contamination in West Africa, yet quantifying the relative contributions of natural and anthropogenic sources remains a major challenge. This study presents an int...

Interpretable machine learning to detect well integrity issues

The problem of timely and accurate evaluation of well integrity is becoming increasingly relevant in the context of mature field development, high wellstream water cut, and a growing number of old wells. For production casing diagnostics, g...

Attention-based functional-group coarse-graining: a deep learning framework for molecular prediction and design

Abstract Machine learning (ML) offers considerable promise for the design of new molecules and materials. In real-world applications, the design problem is often domain-specific, and suffers from insufficient data, particularly labeled data...

Precise diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease based on sex-specific gray matter characteristics

IntroductionThere are notable sex differences in the gray matter of Alzheimer’s disease(AD) patients’ brains, but current evidence is insufficient to prove these differences aid diagnosis effectively.MethodsMultivariate analysis of variance...

Machine Learning in Virtual Screening

In this review, we highlight recent applications of machine learning to virtual screening, focusing on the use of supervised techniques to train statistical learning algorithms to prioritize databases of molecules as active against a partic...

A Survey on Distributed Machine Learning

The demand for artificial intelligence has grown significantly over the past decade, and this growth has been fueled by advances in machine learning techniques and the ability to leverage hardware acceleration. However, to increase the qual...

Proceedings of the 25th international conference on Machine learning

This volume contains the papers accepted to the 25th International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML 2008). ICML is the annual conference of the International Machine Learning Society (IMLS), and provides a venue for the presentation and...

Integrated Causal Learning Workflow of Brain Iron Deposition in Patients with PD based on QSM.

Benchmarking Supervised Classifiers for Concurrent Multidomain Dropout-Intention Attributions in Higher Education: Evidence from a Colombian Public University

Student retention analytics often treats withdrawal as a single outcome, although students may attribute dropout intention to personal, socioeconomic, and academic pressures simultaneously. We benchmarked nine supervised classifiers for ide...

Virtual CT Myelography: A Patch-Based Machine Learning Model to Improve Intraspinal Soft Tissue Visualization on Unenhanced Dual-Energy Lumbar Spine CT

Background: Distinguishing between the spinal cord and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) non-invasively on CT is challenging due to their similar mass densities. We hypothesize that patch-based machine learning applied to dual-energy CT can accurat...

Incorporating snow accumulation and melting into the Xin'anjiang model using differentiable parameter learning

The Xin'anjiang model stands as one of the most important hydrological models. This paper develops a differentiable Xin'anjiang model coupled with the CemaNeige module（dMXAJ）under the framework of differentiable parameter learning. Specific...

Interpretable machine learning for predicting compression index of clays using SHAP and gradient boosting models

Abstract This study introduces a novel, interpretable machine learning framework for predicting the compression index (Cc) of clay soils by integrating three advanced gradient boosting algorithms—XGBoost, CatBoost, and LightGBM—with SHapley...

Epistemic frontiers and the distinction between causality, information, and predictability in pattern recognition

Abstract High predictive accuracy is frequently misinterpreted as evidence of causal understanding or population-level signal. Models can exploit spurious correlations, confounding, or protocol-induced artefacts, while post-hoc explanations...

Improving Intrusion Detection Model Prediction by Threshold Adaptation

Network traffic exhibits a high level of variability over short periods of time. This variability impacts negatively on the accuracy of anomaly-based network intrusion detection systems (IDS) that are built using predictive models in a batc...
