Abstract This is a hands-on workshop offered as a pre-conference training opportunity for researchers interested in applying machine learning techniques to animal science datasets with the purpose of classifying, clustering, performing linear and non-linear regressions or selecting a subset of features relevant to further studies. The objective of this workshop is to provide the audience with a way to formulate a problem such that it will be solvable by machine learning techniques and apply an exploratory analysis of various machine learning on different datasets. The workshop is structured in a hands-on format and includes a brief overview of basic notions about machine learning, a description of relevant models and evaluation metrics followed by a practical session. The practical session requires each attendee to bring their own laptop and have already installed the Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (Weka) workbench for machine learning available from https://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/ and all freely available machine learning models. The Weka installation of freely available machine learning models can be achieved by using the Weka Package Manager available from the Tools menu in the main application. Detailed information will be provided 2 weeks before the beginning of the workshop (week of July 5, 2020) at the following URL:http://animalbiosciences.uoguelph.ca/~dtulpan/conferences/asas2020_mlworkshop/

Operating condition detection and fault diagnosis are very important for reliable operation of reciprocating compressors. Machine learning is one of the most powerful tools in this field. However, there are very few comprehensive reviews which summarize the current research of machine learning in monitoring reciprocating compressor operating condition and fault diagnosis. In this paper, the recent application of machine learning techniques in reciprocating compressor fault diagnosis is reviewed. The advantages and challenges in the detection process, based on three main monitoring parameters in practical applications, are discussed. Future research direction and development are proposed.

The rapid progress in domains like machine learning, and big data has created plenty of opportunities in data-driven applications particularly healthcare. Incorporating machine intelligence in healthcare can result in breakthroughs like precise disease diagnosis, novel methods of treatment, remote healthcare monitoring, drug discovery, and curtailment in healthcare costs. The implementation of machine intelligence algorithms on the massive healthcare datasets is computationally expensive. However, consequential progress in computational power during recent years has facilitated the deployment of machine intelligence algorithms in healthcare applications. Motivated to explore these applications, this paper presents a review of research works dedicated to the implementation of machine learning on healthcare datasets. The studies that were conducted have been categorized into following groups (a) disease diagnosis and detection, (b) disease risk prediction, (c) health monitoring, (d) healthcare related discoveries, and (e) epidemic outbreak prediction. The objective of the research is to help the researchers in this field to get a comprehensive overview of the machine learning applications in healthcare. Apart from revealing the potential of machine learning in healthcare, this paper will serve as a motivation to foster advanced research in the domain of machine intelligence-driven healthcare.

BACKGROUND Applications of machine learning (ML) on health care can have a great impact on people’s lives. At the same time, medical data is usually big, requiring a significant amount of computational resources. Although it might not be a problem for wide-adoption of ML tools in developed nations, availability of computational resource can very well be limited in third-world nations and on mobile devices. This can prevent many people from benefiting of the advancement in ML applications for healthcare. OBJECTIVE In this paper we explored three methods to increase computational efficiency of either recurrent neural net-work(RNN) or feedforward (deep) neural network (DNN) while not compromising its accuracy. We used in-patient mortality prediction as our case analysis upon intensive care dataset. METHODS We reduced the size of RNN and DNN by applying pruning of “unused” neurons. Additionally, we modified the RNN structure by adding a hidden-layer to the RNN cell but reduce the total number of recurrent layers to accomplish a reduction of total parameters in the network. Finally, we implemented quantization on DNN—forcing the weights to be 8-bits instead of 32-bits. RESULTS We found that all methods increased implementation efficiency–including training speed, memory size and inference speed–without reducing the accuracy of mortality prediction. CONCLUSIONS This improvements allow the implementation of sophisticated NN algorithms on devices with lower computational resources.
