Covid-19 Diagnosis Model Using Deep Learning with Focal Loss Technique

Background: Primary headaches are widespread and costly public health problems. However, there are insufficient medical resources for their treatment in Japan due to two reasons. First, the numbers of headache specialists and clinics remain insufficient. Second, neurologists and neurosurgeons mainly treat headaches in Japan. However, they mainly work as general stroke neurologists, so they cannot focus on primary headache treatment. To solve these problems, we preliminarily developed a deep learning (DL)-based automated diagnosis model from patients’ Japanese unstructured sentences in the medical questionnaire using a DL framework. We hypothesized that the model would reduce the time and burden on both doctors and patients and improve their quality of life. Methods: We retrospectively investigated our primary headache database and developed a diagnosis model using the DL framework (Prediction One, Sony Network Communications Inc., Japan). We used age, sex, date, and embedding layer made by the medical questionnaire’s natural language processing (NLP). Results: Eight hundred and forty-eight primary headache patients (495 women and 353 men) are included. The median (interquartile range) age was 59 (40–74). Migraine accounted for 46%, tension-type headache for 47%, trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias for 5%, and other primary headache disorders for 2%. The accuracy, mean precision, mean recall, and mean F value of the developed diagnosis model were 0.7759, 0.8537, 0.6086, and 0.6353, which were satisfactory. Conclusion: The DL-based diagnosis model for primary headaches using the raw medical questionnaire’s Japanese NLP would be useful in performing efficient medical practice after ruling out the secondary headaches.

Condition Diagnosis

Summary Monitoring the working conditions of sucker rod pumping wells in a timely and accurate manner is important for oil production. With the development of smart oil fields, more and more sensors are installed on the well, and the monitored data are continuously transmitted to the data center to form big data. In this work, we aim to utilize the big data collected during oil well production and a deep learning technique to build a new generation of intelligent diagnosis model to monitor working condition of sucker rod pumping wells. More than 5×106 of well monitoring records, which covers information from about 1 year for more than 300 wells in an oilfield block, are collected and preprocessed. To show the dynamic changes of the working conditions for the wells, the overlay dynamometer card is proposed and plotted for each data record. The working conditions are divided into 30 types, and the corresponding data set is created. An intelligent diagnosis model using the convolutional neural network (CNN), one of the deep learning frameworks, is proposed. By the convolution and pooling operation, the CNN can extract features of an image implicitly without human effort and prior knowledge. That makes a CNN very suitable for the recognition of the overlay dynamometer cards. The architecture for a working condition diagnosis CNN model is designed. The CNN model consists of 14 layers with six convolutional layers, three pooling layers, and three fully connected layers. The total number of neurons is more than 1.7×106. The overlay dynamometer card data set is used to train and validate the CNN model. The accuracy and efficiency of the model are evaluated. Both the training and validation accuracies of the CNN model are greater than 99% after 10 training epochs. The average training elapsed time for an epoch is 8909.5 seconds, and the average time to diagnosis a sample is 1.3 milliseconds. Based on the trained CNN model, a working condition monitoring software for a sucker rod pumping well is developed. The software runs 7 × 24 hours to diagnosis the working conditions of wells and post a warning to users. It also has a feedback learning workflow to update the CNN model regularly to improve its performance. The on-site run shows that the actual accuracy of the CNN model is greater than 90%.

Electromechanical Conversion

Diagnosing faults in electric vehicles (EVs) is a great challenge. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the detection of faults in an electromechanical conversion chain for conventional or autonomous EVs. The information and data coming from different sensors make it possible for EVs to recover a series of information including currents, voltages, speeds, and so on. This information is processed to detect any faults in the electromechanical conversion chain. The novelty of this study is to develop an architecture for a fault diagnosis model by means of the feature extraction technique. In this regard, the long short-term memory (LSTM) approach for the fault diagnosis is proposed. This approach has been tested for an EV prototype in practice, is superior in accuracy over other fault diagnosis techniques, and is based on machine learning. An EV in an urban context is modeled, and then the fault diagnosis approach is applied based on deep learning architectures. The EV and the fault diagnosis model is simulated in Matlab software. It is also revealed how deep learning contributes to the fault diagnosis of EVs. The simulation and practical results confirm that higher accuracy in the fault diagnosis is obtained by applying the LSTM.
