Key factors and serial mediation analysis of anxiety and depression among university students: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundAnxiety and depressive symptoms are prevalent among university students; however, their risk factors are unlikely to operate in isolation. Instead, they may be organized in a multilevel structure that progressively approaches emot...

CViewer: a Java-based statistical framework for integration of shotgun metagenomics with other omics datasets

Abstract Background Shotgun metagenomics for microbial community survey recovers enormous amount of information for microbial genomes that include their abundances, taxonomic, and phylogenetic information, as well as their genomic makeup, t...

A review of machine learning in scheduling

This paper has two primary purposes: to motivate the need for machine learning in scheduling systems and to survey work on machine learning in scheduling. In order to motivate the need for machine learning in scheduling, we briefly motivate...

Machine Learning in Orthopedics: A Literature Review

In this paper we present the findings of a systematic literature review covering the articles published in the last two decades in which the authors described the application of a machine learning technique and method to an orthopedic probl...

Machine Learning and Deep Learning Methods for Intrusion Detection Systems: A Survey

Networks play important roles in modern life, and cyber security has become a vital research area. An intrusion detection system (IDS) which is an important cyber security technique, monitors the state of software and hardware running in th...

Machine learning for ecosystem services

Recent developments in machine learning have expanded data-driven modelling (DDM) capabilities, allowing artificial intelligence to infer the behaviour of a system by computing and exploiting correlations between observed variables within i...

Machine Learning for Cultural Heritage: A Survey

The application of Machine Learning (ML) to Cultural Heritage (CH) has evolved since basic statistical approaches such as Linear Regression to complex Deep Learning models. The question remains how much of this actively improves on the unde...

Face mask mandates alter major determinants of adherence to protective health behaviours in Australia

Face mask wearing is a protective health behaviour that helps mitigate the spread of infectious diseases such as influenza and COVID-19. Understanding predictors of face mask wearing can help refine public health messaging and policy in fut...

A State-of-the-Art Review on Machine Learning-based Methods for Prostate Cancer Diagnosis

Prostate cancer can be viewed as the second most dangerous and diagnosed cancer of men all over the world. In the past decade, machine and deep learning methods play a significant role in improving the accuracy of classification for both bi...

Diversity in Machine Learning

Machine learning methods have achieved good performance and been widely applied in various real-world applications. They can learn the model adaptively and be better fit for special requirements of different tasks. Generally, a good machine...

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...

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...
