AbstractLocalization of messenger RNAs (mRNA) as a widely observed phenomenon is considered as an efficient way to target proteins to a specific region of a cell and is also known as a strategy for gene regulation. The importance of correct intracellular RNA placement in the development of embryonic and neural dendrites has long been demonstrated in former studies. Improper localization of RNA in the cell, which has been shown to occur due to a variety of reasons, including mutations in trans-regulatory elements, is also associated with the occurrence of some neuromuscular diseases as well as cancer. We propose NN-RNALoc, a neural network-based model to predict the cellular location of mRNAs. The features extracted from mRNA sequences along with the information gathered from their proteins are fed to this prediction model. We introduce a novel distance-based sub-sequence profile for representation of RNA sequences which is more memory and time efficient and comparying to the k-mer frequencies, can possibly better encode sequences when the distance k increases. The performance of NN-RNALoc on the following benchmark datsets CeFra-seq and RNALocate, is compared to the results achieved by two powerful prediction models that were proposed in former studies named as mRNALoc and RNATracker The results reveal that the employment of protein-protein interaction information, which plays a crucial role in many biological functions, together with the novel distance-based sub-sequence profiles of mRNA sequences, leads to a more accurate prediction model. Besides, NN-RNALoc significantly reduces the required computing time compared to previous studies. Source code and data used in this study are available at: https://github.com/NeginBabaiha/NN-RNALoc

Dynamic modulus is a key evaluation index of the high-modulus asphalt mixture, but it is relatively difficult to test and collect its data. The purpose is to achieve the accurate prediction of the dynamic modulus of the high-modulus asphalt mixture and further optimize the design process of the high-modulus asphalt mixture. Five high-temperature performance indexes of high-modulus asphalt and its mixture were selected. The correlation between the above five indexes and the dynamic modulus of the high-modulus asphalt mixture was analyzed. On this basis, the dynamic modulus prediction models of the high-modulus asphalt mixture based on small sample data were established by multiple regression, general regression neural network (GRNN), and support vector machine (SVM) neural network. According to parameter adjustment and cross-validation, the output stability and accuracy of different prediction models were compared and evaluated. The most effective prediction model was recommended. The results show that the SVM model has more significant prediction accuracy and output stability than the multiple regression model and the GRNN model. Its prediction error was 0.98–9.71%. Compared with the other two models, the prediction error of the SVM model declined by 0.50–11.96% and 3.76–13.44%. The SVM neural network was recommended as the dynamic modulus prediction model of the high-modulus asphalt mixture.

Audible noise prediction is a hot research area in power transmission engineering in recent years, especially come down to AC transmission lines. The conventional prediction models at present have got some problems such as big errors. In this paper, a prediction model is established based on BP network, in which the input variables are the four factors in the international common expression of power line audible noise and the noise value is the output. Take multiple measured power lines as an example, a train is made by the BP network and then the prediction model is set up in the hidden layer of the network. Using the trained model, the audible noise values are predicted. The final results show that the average absolute error in absolute terms of the values by the audible noise prediction model based on BP neural network is 1.6414 less than that predicted by the GE formula.

In general, three-dimensional ground reaction forces (GRFs) and ground reaction moments (GRMs) that occur during human gait are measured using a force plate, which are expensive and have spatial limitations. Therefore, we proposed a prediction model for GRFs and GRMs, which only uses plantar pressure information measured from insole pressure sensors with a wavelet neural network (WNN) and principal component analysis-mutual information (PCA-MI). For this, the prediction model estimated GRFs and GRMs with three different gait speeds (slow, normal, and fast groups) and healthy/pathological gait patterns (healthy and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) groups). Model performance was validated using correlation coefficients (r) and the normalized root mean square error (NRMSE%) and was compared to the prediction accuracy of the previous methods using the same dataset. As a result, the performance of the GRF and GRM prediction model proposed in this study (slow group: r = 0.840–0.989 and NRMSE% = 10.693–15.894%; normal group: r = 0.847–0.988 and NRMSE% = 10.920–19.216%; fast group: r = 0.823–0.953 and NRMSE% = 12.009–20.182%; healthy group: r = 0.836–0.976 and NRMSE% = 12.920–18.088%; and AIS group: r = 0.917–0.993 and NRMSE% = 7.914–15.671%) was better than that of the prediction models suggested in previous studies for every group and component (p < 0.05 or 0.01). The results indicated that the proposed model has improved performance compared to previous prediction models.

This paper proposes a short-term wind power dynamic prediction model based on GA-BP neural network. Different from conventional prediction models, the proposed approach incorporates a prediction error adjusting strategy into neural network based prediction model to realize the function of model parameters self-adjusting, thus increase the prediction accuracy. Genetic algorithm is used to optimize the parameters of BP neural network. The wind power prediction results from different models with and without error adjusting strategy are compared. The comparative results show that the proposed dynamic prediction approach can provide more accurate wind power forecasting.

Abstract Background: To identify patients with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) with a risk of prolonged fever while on macrolides. Methods: A retrospective study was performed with 716 children admitted for MPP. Refractory MPP (RMPP) was defined as fever persisting for >72 hours after macrolide antibiotics (RMPP-3) or when fever persisted for >120 hours (RMPP-5). Radiological data, laboratory data, and fever profiles were compared between the RMPP and non-RMPP groups. Fever profiles included the highest temperature, lowest temperature, and frequency of fever. Prediction models for RMPP were created using the logistic regression method and deep neural network. Their predictive values were compared using receiver operating characteristic curves.Results: Overall, 716 patients were randomly divided into two groups: training and test cohorts for both RMPP-3 and RMPP-5. For the prediction of RMPP-3, a conventional logistic model with radiologic grouping showed increased sensitivity (63.3%) than the model using laboratory values. Adding laboratory values in the prediction model using radiologic grouping did not contribute to a meaningful increase in sensitivity (64.6%). For the prediction of RMPP-5, laboratory values or radiologic grouping showed lower sensitivities ranging from 12.9%–16.1%. However, prediction models using predefined fever profiles showed significantly increased sensitivity for predicting RMPP-5, and neural network models using 12 sequential fever data showed a greatly increased sensitivity (64.5%).Conclusions: RMPP-5 could not be effectively predicted using initial laboratory and radiologic data, which were previously reported to be predictive. Further studies using advanced mathematical models, based on large-sized easily accessible clinical data, are anticipated for predicting RMPP.

A correct lane-changing plays a crucial role in traffic safety. Predicting the lane-changing behavior of a driver can improve the driving safety significantly. In this paper, a hybrid neural network prediction model based on recurrent neural network (RNN) and fully connected neural network (FC) is proposed to predict lane-changing behavior accurately and improve the prospective time of prediction. The dynamic time window is proposed to extract the lane-changing features which include driver physiological data, vehicle kinematics data, and driver kinematics data. The effectiveness of the proposed model is validated through the experiments in real traffic scenarios. Besides, the proposed model is compared with five prediction models, and the results show that the proposed prediction model can effectively predict the lane-changing behavior more accurate and earlier than the other models. The proposed model achieves the prediction accuracy of 93.5% and improves the prospective time of prediction by about 2.1 s on average.

Significant advances in lymph node involvement (LNI) risk modeling in prostate cancer (PCa) have been achieved with the addition of visual interpretation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, but it is likely that quantitative analysis could further improve prediction models. In this study, we aimed to develop and internally validate a novel LNI risk prediction model based on radiomic features extracted from preoperative multimodal MRI. All patients who underwent a preoperative MRI and radical prostatectomy with extensive lymph node dissection were retrospectively included in a single institution. Patients were randomly divided into the training (60%) and testing (40%) sets. Radiomic features were extracted from the index tumor volumes, delineated on the apparent diffusion coefficient corrected map and the T2 sequences. A ComBat harmonization method was applied to account for inter-site heterogeneity. A prediction model was trained using a neural network approach (Multilayer Perceptron Network, SPSS v24.0©) combining clinical, radiomic and all features. It was then evaluated on the testing set and compared to the current available models using the Receiver Operative Characteristics and the C-Index. Two hundred and eighty patients were included, with a median age of 65.2 y (45.3–79.6), a mean PSA level of 9.5 ng/mL (1.04–63.0) and 79.6% of ISUP ≥ 2 tumors. LNI occurred in 51 patients (18.2%), with a median number of extracted nodes of 15 (10–19). In the testing set, with their respective cutoffs applied, the Partin, Roach, Yale, MSKCC, Briganti 2012 and 2017 models resulted in a C-Index of 0.71, 0.66, 0.55, 0.67, 0.65 and 0.73, respectively, while our proposed combined model resulted in a C-Index of 0.89 in the testing set. Radiomic features extracted from the preoperative MRI scans and combined with clinical features through a neural network seem to provide added predictive performance compared to state of the art models regarding LNI risk prediction in PCa.

AbstractThe work introduces a numerical external damage prediction method for buried pipelines. The external pitting initiation and corrosion rate of oil or gas pipelines are affected by pipeline age, physicochemical properties of soils and cathodic protection performance as well as coating conditions. Before developing the damage prediction model, the influencing factors were weighed by grey relational analysis, and then the relationship among the pitting depth and the influencing factors of external corrosion was established for corrosion damage prediction through artificial neural network (ANN). Subsequently, the established ANN was applied to predict corrosion damage and corrosion rate for some selected cases, and the neural network prediction model was analyzed and compared to another corrosion rate prediction models. Through the analysis and comparison, a few opinions were proposed on the external corrosion damage prediction and pipeline integrity management.

Due to the intermittency and randomness of photovoltaic (PV) power, the PV power prediction accuracy of the traditional data-driven prediction models is difficult to improve. A prediction model based on the localized emotion reconstruction emotional neural network (LERENN) is proposed, which is motivated by chaos theory and the neuropsychological theory of emotion. Firstly, the chaotic nonlinear dynamics approach is used to draw the hidden characteristics of PV power time series, and the single-step cyclic rolling localized prediction mechanism is derived. Secondly, in order to establish the correlation between the prediction model and the specific characteristics of PV power time series, the extended signal and emotional parameters are reconstructed with a relatively certain local basis. Finally, the proposed prediction model is trained and tested for single-step and three-step prediction using the actual measured data. Compared with the prediction model based on the long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network, limbic-based artificial emotional neural network (LiAENN), the back propagation neural network (BPNN), and the persistence model (PM), numerical results show that the proposed prediction model achieves better accuracy and better detection of ramp events for different weather conditions when only using PV power data.
