Influenza Outbreaks

Abstract Influenza is an infectious disease that leads to an estimated 5 million severe illness cases and 650,000 respiratory deaths worldwide each year. Early detection and prediction of influenza outbreaks are crucial to efficient resource planning to save patients’ lives and healthcare costs. This paper proposes a novel data-driven methodology for influenza outbreaks detection and prediction. The doctor’s diagnosis-based prescription dataset of Influenza-Like Illness (ILI) from more than 3,000 clinics in Malaysia is used in this study because the prescription data are reliable and can be captured timely. A new Region Index (RI) of the influenza outbreak is proposed based on the prescription dataset. With the newly proposed RI metric, statistical and machine learning models are developed to detect and predict influenza outbreaks. Cross-validation is conducted to evaluate the prediction model performance. The proposed methods are also validated by real-world evidence. It is proved to be sensitive and accurate in influenza outbreak prediction with 80-90% accuracy, 70-80% recall, and 70-80% precision scores.

Novel Model

Multiple resource planning is a very crucial undertaking for most organizations. Apart from reducing operational complexity, multiple resource planning facilitates efficient allocation of resources, which reduces costs by minimizing the cost of tardiness and the cost for additional capacity. The current research investigates multiple resource loading problems (MRLP). MRLPs are very prevalent in today’s organizational environments and are particularly critical for organizations that handle concurrent, time-intensive, and multiple-resource projects. Using data obtained from the Ministry of Administrative Development, Labor and Social Affairs (ADLSA), a MRLP is proposed. The problem utilizes data regarding staff, time, equipment, and finance to ensure efficient resource allocation among competing projects. In particular, the research proposes a novel model and solution approach for the MRLP. Computational experiments are then performed on the model. The results show that the model performs well, even for higher instances. The positive results attest to the effectiveness of the proposed MRLP problem.

Common Understanding

The importance of robotics and assistive technologies for healthcare is increasing. For their introduction into practical application, the continuous integration of the user perspective is crucial to ensure acceptance and usability. This can be achieved by the user-centered design approach. In an earlier publication, several problems with its functional implementation within research and development (R&D) projects were pointed out. This chapter discusses possible solutions to promote an effective integration of the user perspective in R&D projects based on six interviews with experts from Germany. The results can be summarized in three main requirements: first, the generation of a common understanding of the target group; second, a scientific research approach considering the context of technology usage; third, projectification, with a focus on efficient resource planning, the development of generic technologies, and technology evaluations with the user group. Leaders of innovative projects can benefit from implementing these strategies in the development process.

Using Data

Data centers are expensive to build and operate. Large data centers cost $9–13/W to build [1] and can consume more than forty times, and up to over two hundred times, the amount of energy and resources consumed by a typical building [2], [3]. Therefore, space and energy considerations need to be accounted for when evaluating competing designs for high-performance computing (HPC) installations. This paper describes the results of an incremental cost and energy savings analysis conducted using data collected from a real-world case study to evaluate the impacts of efficient resource planning and implementing a total cost of ownership (TCO) model in the analysis of IT equipment and systems. The analysis presented demonstrates the advantages of using the latest technologies and IT strategies when planning the growth of new HPC installations at an enterprise level. The data also indicates an efficient design can significantly reduce the space, power, and cooling requirements of the HPC deployment while maintaining the performance and reliability criteria.

Prediction And Forecasting

Accurate forecasting of solar energy is essential for photovoltaic (PV) plants, to facilitate their participation in the energy market and for efficient resource planning. This article is dedicated to two forecasting models: (1) ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) statistical approach to time series forecasting, using measured historical data, and (2) ANN (Artificial Neural Network) using machine learning techniques. The main contributions of the authors could be synthetized as follows: (1) analysis and discussion of the experimental and simulated results regarding solar radiation forecast, as well as energy production prediction and forecasting based on ARIMA and ANN models for two case studies: (a) laboratory BIPV system developed at the Polytechnic University of Bucharest and (b) large PV park placed in a specific site of the south of Romania. A variability index of solar radiation was introduced for the model improvement; (2) comparison between the ARIMA and ANN results to highlight the ARIMA model which is more efficient than the ANN one; (3) optimized method defined by the GMDH model (Group Method of Data Handling) proposed to provide a software program for calculation of the PV energy production.
