Abstract Background Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) imaging is a reference standard technique for the differentiation of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) from non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM) in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). 3D myocardial deformation analysis (3D-MDA) offers highly reproducible phenotypic assessments of regional architecture and function that may provide value for artificial-intelligence-assisted cardiomyopathy diagnosis without need for LGE imaging. Purpose In this study, we trained and validated a machine-learning-based model to enable automated diagnosis of ischemic versus non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy exclusively using regional patterns of deformation among patients otherwise matched by age, sex and global contractile dysfunction. Methods 100 ICM and 100 NIDCM patients matched for age, sex, and LVEF underwent standard cine SSFP and LGE imaging. Patient diagnoses were established using a combination of clinical and LGE-based criteria. 3D-MDA was performed using validated software (GIUSEPPE) to compute regional 3D strain measures at each cardiac phase in both conventional and principal strain directions. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was performed on the composite 3D-MDA dataset. The first 20 components were chosen, accounting for approximately 65% of the population variance. Subsequently, a support-vector-machine-based algorithm was used with 10-fold cross-validation to discriminate ICM from NIDCM. Results Patients were 63±10 years (ICM: 63±10 years, NIDCM: 63±10 years, p=0.955), 74% male (ICM: 74%, NIDCM: 74%, p=1.000), and had a mean LVEF of 27±8% (ICM: 27±7%, NIDCM: 28±7%, p=0.688). Global time to peak strain was significantly shorter in ICM patients relative to NIDCM patients across all surfaces and in all directions (p<0.05). The highest single-variable Area Under the Curve (AUC) achieved for the classification of ICM versus NIDCM from global data was for minimum principal strain (ICM: 43.7±7.8, NIDCM: 48.3±7.5, p<0.001, AUC: 0.682) (Figure 1). However, a multi-feature machine-learning-based model exposed to all available regional 3D deformation data achieved an AUC of 0.903 (sensitivity 87.7%, specificity 75.5%). Conclusions Machine learning-based analyses of3D regionaldeformation patterns allows for robust discrimination of ICM versus NIDCM. Further expansion of the presented findings is planned on a wider, multi-centre cohort. Acknowledgement/Funding Dr. White was supported by an award from Heart and Stroke Foundation of Alberta.

Objective: Patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and severely reduced left ventricular ejection fractions (LVEFs) are at very high risks of experiencing adverse cardiac events. A machine learning (ML) method could enable more effective risk stratification for these high-risk patients by incorporating various types of data. The aim of this study was to build an ML model to predict adverse events including all-cause deaths and heart transplantation in DCM patients with severely impaired LV systolic function. Methods: One hundred and eighteen patients with DCM and severely reduced LVEFs (<35%) were included. The baseline clinical characteristics, laboratory data, electrocardiographic, and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) features were collected. Various feature selection processes and classifiers were performed to select an ML model with the best performance. The predictive performance of tested ML models was evaluated using the area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve using 10-fold cross-validation. Results: Twelve patients died, and 17 patients underwent heart transplantation during the median follow-up of 508 days. The ML model included systolic blood pressure, left ventricular end-systolic and end-diastolic volume indices, and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) extents on CMR imaging, and a support vector machine was selected as a classifier. The model showed excellent performance in predicting adverse events in DCM patients with severely reduced LVEF (the AUC and accuracy values were 0.873 and 0.763, respectively). Conclusions: This ML technique could effectively predict adverse events in DCM patients with severely reduced LVEF. Advances in knowledge: The ML method has superior ability in risk stratification in severe DCM patients.

Abstract The accurate modelling of landslide risk is essential pre-requisite for the development of reliable landslide control and mitigation strategies. However, landslide risk depends on the poorly known environmental and socio-economic factors for regional patterns of landslide occurrence probability and vulnerability, which constitute still a matter of research. Here, a hybrid model is described that couples data mining and multi-criteria decision-making methods for hazard and vulnerability mapping and presents its application to landslide risk assessment in Golestan Province, Northeastern Iran. To this end, landslide probability is mapped using three state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) algorithms – Maximum Entropy, Support Vector Machine and Genetic Algorithm for Rule Set Production – and combine the results with Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process computations of vulnerability to obtain the landslide risk map. Based on obtained results, a discussion is presented on landslide probability as a function of the main relevant human-environmental conditioning factors in Golestan Province. In particular, from the response curves of the machine learning algorithms, it can be found that the probability 𝑝 of landslide occurrence decreases nearly exponentially with the distance 𝑥 to the next road, fault or river. Specifically, the results indicated that 𝑝≈exp(−𝜆𝑥), where the length-scale 𝜆 is about 0.0797 km−1 for road, 0.108 km−1 for fault and 0.734 km−1 for river. Furthermore, according to the results, 𝑝 follows, approximately, a lognormal function of elevation, while the equation 𝑝=𝑝0−𝐾∙(𝜃−𝜃0)2 fits well the dependence of landslide modeling on the slope-angle 𝜃, with 𝑝0≈0.64, 𝜃0≈25.6° and |𝐾|≈6.6×10−4. However, the highest predicted landslide risk levels in Golestan Province are located in the south and southwest areas surrounding Gorgan City, owing to the combined effect of dense local human occupation and strongly landslide-prone environmental conditions. Obtained results provide insights for quantitative modelling of landslide risk, as well as for priority planning in landslide risk management.

In this paper, we investigate analysis and prediction of the time-dependent data. We focus our attention on four different stocks are selected from Yahoo Finance historical database. To build up models and predict the future stock price, we consider three different machine learning techniques including Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Support Vector Regression (SVR). By treating close price, open price, daily low, daily high, adjusted close price, and volume of trades as predictors in machine learning methods, it can be shown that the prediction accuracy is improved.

Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) pose a substantial threat as endocrine disruptors, and thus early identification of those that may interact with steroid hormone receptors, such as the androgen receptor (AR), is critical. In this study we screened 5,206 PFASs from the CompTox database against the different binding sites on the AR using both molecular docking and machine learning techniques. We developed support vector machine models trained on Tox21 data to classify the active and inactive PFASs for AR using different chemical fingerprints as features. The maximum accuracy was 95.01% and Matthew’s correlation coefficient (MCC) was 0.76 respectively, based on MACCS fingerprints (MACCSFP). The combination of docking-based screening and machine learning models identified 29 PFASs that have strong potential for activity against the AR and should be considered priority chemicals for biological toxicity testing.

<div>Classification has become a vital task in modern machine learning and Artificial Intelligence applications, including smart sensing. Numerous machine learning techniques are available to perform classification. Similarly, numerous practices, such as feature selection (i.e., selection of a subset of descriptor variables that optimally describe the output), are available to improve classifier performance. In this paper, we consider the case of a given supervised learning classification task that has to be performed making use of continuous-valued features. It is assumed that an optimal subset of features has already been selected. Therefore, no further feature reduction, or feature addition, is to be carried out. Then, we attempt to improve the classification performance by passing the given feature set through a transformation that produces a new feature set which we have named the “Binary Spectrum”. Via a case study example done on some Pulsed Eddy Current sensor data captured from an infrastructure monitoring task, we demonstrate how the classification accuracy of a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier increases through the use of this Binary Spectrum feature, indicating the feature transformation’s potential for broader usage.</div><div><br></div>
