Driver Drowsiness

Drowsiness is the main cause of road accidents and it leads to severe physical injury, death, and significant economic losses. To monitor driver drowsiness various methods like Behaviour measures, Vehicle measures, Physiological measures and Hybrid measures have been used in previous research. This paper mainly focuses on physiological methods to predict the driver’s drowsiness. Several physiological methods are used to predict drowsiness. Among those methods, Electroencephalography is one of the non-invasive physiological methods to measure the brain activity of the subject. EEG brain signal extracted from the human scalp is analysed with various features and used for various health application like predicting drowsiness, fatigue etc. The main objective of the proposed system is to early predict the driver drowsiness with high accuracy so that we have divided our work into two steps. The first step is to collect the publicly available dataset of EEG based Eye state as (Eye open and Eye closed) where the signal acquisition process was done from Emotiv EEG Neuroheadset (14 electrodes) and analysed various feature engineering techniques and statistical techniques. The second step was applied with the machine learning classification model as K-NN and performance-based predicting models are used. In the Existing System, they used various machine learning classification models like K-NN and SVM for EEG Eye state classification and produced results around 80% -97%. Compared to the Existing system our proposed method produced better classification models for predicting driver drowsiness using different Feature engineering process and classification models as K-NN produced 98% of accuracy.

This study develops an objective machine-learning classification model for classifying glaucomatous optic discs and reveals the classificatory criteria to assist in clinical glaucoma management. In this study, 163 glaucoma eyes were labelled with four optic disc types by three glaucoma specialists and then randomly separated into training and test data. All the images of these eyes were captured using optical coherence tomography and laser speckle flowgraphy to quantify the ocular structure and blood-flow-related parameters. A total of 91 parameters were extracted from each eye along with the patients’ background information. Machine-learning classifiers, including the neural network (NN), naïve Bayes (NB), support vector machine (SVM), and gradient boosted decision trees (GBDT), were trained to build the classification models, and a hybrid feature selection method that combines minimum redundancy maximum relevance and genetic-algorithm-based feature selection was applied to find the most valid and relevant features for NN, NB, and SVM. A comparison of the performance of the three machine-learning classification models showed that the NN had the best classification performance with a validated accuracy of 87.8% using only nine ocular parameters. These selected quantified parameters enabled the trained NN to classify glaucomatous optic discs with relatively high performance without requiring color fundus images.

Quantum annealers, such as the device built by D-Wave Systems, Inc., offer a way to compute solutions of NP-hard problems that can be expressed in Ising or quadratic unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) form. Although such solutions are typically of very high quality, problem instances are usually not solved to optimality due to imperfections of the current generations quantum annealers. In this contribution, we aim to understand some of the factors contributing to the hardness of a problem instance, and to use machine learning models to predict the accuracy of the D-Wave 2000Q annealer for solving specific problems. We focus on the maximum clique problem, a classic NP-hard problem with important applications in network analysis, bioinformatics, and computational chemistry. By training a machine learning classification model on basic problem characteristics such as the number of edges in the graph, or annealing parameters, such as the D-Wave’s chain strength, we are able to rank certain features in the order of their contribution to the solution hardness, and present a simple decision tree which allows to predict whether a problem will be solvable to optimality with the D-Wave 2000Q. We extend these results by training a machine learning regression model that predicts the clique size found by D-Wave.

Financial Losses

Given the highly visible nature, transportation infrastructure construction projects are often exposed to numerous unexpected events, compared to other types of construction projects. Despite the importance of predicting financial losses caused by risk, it is still difficult to determine which risk factors are generally critical and when these risks tend to occur, without benchmarkable references. Most of existing methods are prediction-focused, project type-specific, while ignoring the timing aspect of risk. This study filled these knowledge gaps by developing a neural network-driven machine-learning classification model that can categorize causes of financial losses depending on insurance claim payout proportions and risk occurrence timing, drawing on 625 transportation infrastructure construction projects including bridges, roads, and tunnels. The developed network model showed acceptable classification accuracy of 74.1%, 69.4%, and 71.8% in training, cross-validation, and test sets, respectively. This study is the first of its kind by providing benchmarkable classification references of economic damage trends in transportation infrastructure projects. The proposed holistic approach will help construction practitioners consider the uncertainty of project management and the potential impact of natural hazards proactively, with the risk occurrence timing trends. This study will also assist insurance companies with developing sustainable financial management plans for transportation infrastructure projects.

AbstractThe development of selective inhibitors of the clinically relevant human Carbonic Anhydrase (hCA) isoforms IX and XII has become a major topic in drug research, due to their deregulation in several types of cancer. Indeed, the selective inhibition of these two isoforms, especially with respect to the homeostatic isoform II, holds great promise to develop anticancer drugs with limited side effects. Therefore, the development of in silico models able to predict the activity and selectivity against the desired isoform(s) is of central interest. In this work, we have developed a series of machine learning classification models, trained on high confidence data extracted from ChEMBL, able to predict the activity and selectivity profiles of ligands for human Carbonic Anhydrase isoforms II, IX and XII. The training datasets were built with a procedure that made use of flexible bioactivity thresholds to obtain well-balanced active and inactive classes. We used multiple algorithms and sampling sizes to finally select activity models able to classify active or inactive molecules with excellent performances. Remarkably, the results herein reported turned out to be better than those obtained by models built with the classic approach of selecting an a priori activity threshold. The sequential application of such validated models enables virtual screening to be performed in a fast and more reliable way to predict the activity and selectivity profiles against the investigated isoforms.

BackgroundUp to half of patients with dementia may not receive a formal diagnosis, limiting access to appropriate services. It is hypothesised that it may be possible to identify undiagnosed dementia from a profile of symptoms recorded in routine clinical practice.AimThe aim of this study is to develop a machine learning-based model that could be used in general practice to detect dementia from routinely collected NHS data. The model would be a useful tool for identifying people who may be living with dementia but have not been formally diagnosed.Design & settingThe study involved a case-control design and analysis of primary care data routinely collected over a 2-year period. Dementia diagnosed during the study period was compared to no diagnosis of dementia during the same period using pseudonymised routinely collected primary care clinical data.MethodRoutinely collected Read-encoded data were obtained from 18 consenting GP surgeries across Devon, for 26 483 patients aged >65 years. The authors determined Read codes assigned to patients that may contribute to dementia risk. These codes were used as features to train a machine-learning classification model to identify patients that may have underlying dementia.ResultsThe model obtained sensitivity and specificity values of 84.47% and 86.67%, respectively.ConclusionThe results show that routinely collected primary care data may be used to identify undiagnosed dementia. The methodology is promising and, if successfully developed and deployed, may help to increase dementia diagnosis in primary care.

Abstract Pattern recognition and automatic decision support methods provide significant advantages in the area of health protection. The aim of this work is to develop a low-cost tool for monitoring arteriovenous fistula (AVF) with the use of phono-angiography method. This article presents a developed and diagnostic device that implements classification algorithms to identify 38 patients with end stage renal disease, chronically hemodialysed using an AVF, at risk of vascular access stenosis. We report on the design, fabrication, and preliminary testing of a prototype device for non-invasive diagnosis which is very important for hemodialysed patients. The system includes three sub-modules: AVF signal acquisition, information processing and classification and a unit for presenting results. This is a non-invasive and inexpensive procedure for evaluating the sound pattern of bruit produced by AVF. With a special kind of head which has a greater sensitivity than conventional stethoscope, a sound signal from fistula was recorded. The proces of signal acquisition was performed by a dedicated software, written specifically for the purpose of our study. From the obtained phono-angiogram, 23 features were isolated for vectors used in a decision-making algorithm, including 6 features based on the waveform of time domain, and 17 features based on the frequency spectrum. Final definition of the feature vector composition was obtained by using several selection methods: the feature-class correlation, forward search, Principal Component Analysis and Joined-Pairs method. The supervised machine learning technique was then applied to develop the best classification model.

Ménière's Disease

Objective Diagnosis and treatment of Ménière’s disease remains a significant challenge because of our inability to understand what is occurring on a molecular level. MicroRNA (miRNA) perilymph profiling is a safe methodology and may serve as a “liquid biopsy” equivalent. We used machine learning (ML) to evaluate miRNA expression profiles of various inner ear pathologies to predict diagnosis of Ménière’s disease. Study Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Tertiary academic hospital. Subjects and Methods Perilymph was collected during labyrinthectomy (Ménière’s disease, n = 5), stapedotomy (otosclerosis, n = 5), and cochlear implantation (sensorineural hearing loss [SNHL], n = 9). miRNA was isolated and analyzed with the Affymetrix miRNA 4.0 array. Various ML classification models were evaluated with an 80/20 train/test split and cross-validation. Permutation feature importance was performed to understand miRNAs that were critical to the classification models. Results In terms of miRNA profiles for conductive hearing loss versus Ménière’s, 4 models were able to differentiate and identify the 2 disease classes with 100% accuracy. The top-performing models used the same miRNAs in their decision classification model but with different weighted values. All candidate models for SNHL versus Ménière’s performed significantly worse, with the best models achieving 66% accuracy. Ménière’s models showed unique features distinct from SNHL. Conclusions We can use ML to build Ménière’s-specific prediction models using miRNA profile alone. However, ML models were less accurate in predicting SNHL from Ménière’s, likely from overlap of miRNA biomarkers. The power of this technique is that it identifies biomarkers without knowledge of the pathophysiology, potentially leading to identification of novel biomarkers and diagnostic tests.
