Geographic Atrophy Multifocality in the Age-Related Eye Disease Study 2.

An Integrative Remote Sensing Application of Stacked Autoencoder for Atmospheric Correction and Cyanobacteria Estimation Using Hyperspectral Imagery

Hyperspectral image sensing can be used to effectively detect the distribution of harmful cyanobacteria. To accomplish this, physical- and/or model-based simulations have been conducted to perform an atmospheric correction (AC) and an estim...

Grid Carbon-Intensity-Aware Power–Computing Coordinated Task Scheduling for Data Centers

With the rapid growth of AI, data-center energy consumption continues to increase. To balance computing service requirements and renewable-energy fluctuations, a grid carbon-intensity-aware power–computing coordinated scheduling method was ...

MalariaSED: a deep learning framework to decipher the regulatory contributions of noncoding variants in malaria parasites

Abstract Malaria remains one of the deadliest infectious diseases. Transcriptional regulation effects of noncoding variants in this unusual genome of malaria parasites remain elusive. We developed a sequence-based, ab initio deep learning f...

Identifying private pumping wells in a land subsidence area in Taiwan using deep learning technology and street view images

Study region: The Choushui River Fan, Taiwan. Study focus: Groundwater overdraft has led to not only groundwater depletion but also environmental disasters, such as subsidence and seawater intrusion in the Choushui River Alluvial Fan, Taiwa...

Estimating Uncertainty of Geographic Atrophy Segmentations with Bayesian Deep Learning

Purpose: To apply methods for quantifying uncertainty of deep learning segmentation of geographic atrophy (GA). Design: Retrospective analysis of OCT images and model comparison. Participants: One hundred twenty-six eyes from 87 participant...

Siamese text classification network (SiamTCN) for multi-class multi-label information extraction of typhoon disasters from social media data

Accurately monitoring disaster effects is a crucial task in relief efforts (e.g. typhoon rescue). Social media data plays a vital role in disaster management, while deep learning-based methods gain more attention in typhoon disaster researc...

Deep Learning

Deep learning is a form of machine learning that enables computers to learn from experience and understand the world in terms of a hierarchy of concepts. Because the computer gathers knowledge from experience, there is no need for a human c...

Machine learning and data-driven prediction of pore pressure from geophysical logs: A case study for the Mangahewa gas field, New Zealand

Pore pressure is an essential parameter for establishing reservoir conditions, geological interpretation and drilling programs. Pore pressure prediction depends on information from various geophysical logs, seismic, and direct down-hole pre...

Increased Atmospheric Aridity and Reduced Precipitation Drive the 2023 Extreme Wildfire Season in Canada

Abstract Canada experienced an unprecedented wildfire season in 2023. Here, we analyzed the exceptional scale, dominant driving factors, and potential impacts on permafrost of these wildfires using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiome...

Using fuzzy and machine learning iterative optimized models to generate the flood susceptibility maps: case study of Prahova River basin, Romania

AbstractIn this work, the vulnerability to flooding in the Prahova River basin was calculated and analyzed using advanced methods and techniques. Thus, 2 hybrid models represented by Iterative Classifier Optimizer – Multiclass Alternating D...

Machine learning in pain research

1. Introduction Pain and pain chronification are incompletely understood and unresolved medical problems that continue to have a high prevalence.14 It has been accepted that pain is a complex phenomenon.2,32,72 Contemporary methods of compu...

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...

Satellite Retrieval of Air Pollution Changes in Central and Eastern China during COVID-19 Lockdown Based on a Machine Learning Model

With the implementation of the 2018–2020 Clean Air Action Plan (CAAP) the and impact from COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020, air pollution emissions in central and eastern China have decreased markedly. Here, by combining satellite remote sensing,...

Spatially contextualized analysis of energy use for commuting in India

India’s land transport GHG emissions are small in international comparison, but growing exponentially. Understanding of geographically-specific determinants of GHG emissions is crucial to devise low-carbon sustainable development strategies...

Epidemiology and Ecology of Toscana Virus Infection and Its Global Risk Distribution

Toscana virus (TOSV), a member of the Phlebovirus genus transmitted by sandflies, is acknowledged for its capacity to cause neurological infections and is widely distributed across Mediterranean countries. The potential geographic distribut...
