Every complex system is liable to faults and failures. In the most general terms, a fault is any change in a system that prevents it from operating in the proper manner. Here, the diagnosis of catastrophic defects in complex digital circuits. In fact, today the technical diagnosis is great challenge for design engineers because diagnostic problems are generally under determinate. It is also a deductive process with one set of data creating, in general, unlimited number of hypotheses among which one should try to get the solution. So the diagnosis methods are based on proprietary knowledge and personal experience, although they were built into integrated diagnostic equipment. The approach proposed here is an alternative to existing solutions, and it is expected to encompass all phases of the diagnostic process: symptom detection, hypotheses generation, and hypotheses discrimination.

Hypotheses Generation

Even though numerous tools and technologies have been developed to meet this need with various degrees of success, a conceptual framework is needed to fully realize the value of those tools and technologies. The authors propose Complex System (CS) to be the logical foundation of such a framework. Since translational research is a spiral and dynamic process. With the CS mindset, they designed a multi-layer architecture called HyGen (Hypotheses Generation Framework) to address the challenges faced by translational researchers. In order to evaluate the framework, the authors carried out heuristic and quantitative tests in Colorectal Cancer disease area. The results demonstrate the potential of this hybrid approach to bridge silos and to identify hidden links among clinical observations, drugs, genes and diseases, which may eventually lead to the discovery of novel disease targets, biomarkers and therapies.

Future Potential

The use of the sensors shortens the service life, wears out and reduces their accuracy due to operation. For sensors with a susceptibility to inaccuracy, it is possible to create a sensor-device-software diagnostic set. Such a scheme of configuration should be able to provide autonomic diagnostic, calibration, evaluation and also recalibration of the sensor. The diagnostic equipment could also have a shock test function in order to intentionally and faster reduce the service life and thus test the correctly set parameters of the diagnostic algorithm in laboratory conditions. The diagnostic device is a specialized technical system that provides conditions for the future potential of the testing development, knowledge and experience. According to the design, it can be modularly enriched with new parts, fixtures and systems to provide a more diverse range of options. There would be space for exploring the possibilities of new types of sensors, their comparison, as well as full-fledged automation of the complex diagnostic process.

Aided Diagnosis

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death and ranks third worldwide in diagnosed malignant pathologies (1.36 million new cases annually). An increase in the diversity of treatment options as well as a rising population require novel diagnostic tools. Current diagnostics involve critical human thinking, but the decisional process loses accuracy due to the increased number of modulatory factors involved. The proposed computer-aided diagnosis system analyses each colonoscopy and provides predictions that will help the clinician to make the right decisions. Artificial intelligence is included in the system both offline and online image processing tools. Aiming to improve the diagnostic process of colon cancer patients, an application was built that allows the easiest and most intuitive interaction between medical staff and the proposed diagnosis system. The developed tool uses two networks. The first, a convolutional neural network, is capable of classifying eight classes of tissue with a sensitivity of 98.13% and an F1 score of 98.14%, while the second network, based on semantic segmentation, can identify the malignant areas with a Jaccard index of 75.18%. The results could have a direct impact on personalised medicine combining clinical knowledge with the computing power of intelligent algorithms.

Nowadays, intelligent diagnosis for the complex system has been a forefront of issue. The application of the artificial-intelligent technology has made the dream of using men’s knowledge to diagnose the complex system, and improves it up to a new grade. Traditional diagnosis is up to technical engineer experience to estimate equipment’s status, and make a judgment; this way has many limitations and little efficiency, with the increase of complexness of the equipment, there have to get some more effective methods. In 1980s, some experts have researched on the diagnosis system using intelligent technology. With the development of computer and network technology, intelligent technology has better support platform. Experts have researched on different branches of diagnosis technology and used these ideas into diagnosis system (Wu J.P. & Xiao J.G., 1997). As the developing of Internet, all equipments have been cyber and connected to network. More and more system is consists of multiple devices and have the characteristic of the distribution. In this case, remote diagnosis system gets more attentions because of its unmatched benefits. In the remote diagnosis system, the technology of multiple agent or called multi-agent often be used to resolve difficult diagnosis problems. Intelligent diagnosis is the develop trend that could perform intelligent maintenance in a high level of efficiency. Researching on intelligent diagnosis and applying it have significant meaning. Definition and development of diagnosis is introduced in this chapter firstly, which including different branch and fussing with other area. The advantage and shortage of different technology also be introduced. Then the remote diagnosis on network is discussed. The theory and development of Multi-agent based remote diagnosis technology is also presented. The trend and scene is been bring on finally.

Hybrid Approaches

Proper and rapid identification of malfunctions is of premier importance for the safe operation of Nuclear Power Plants (NPP). Many monitoring or/and diagnosis methodologies based on artificial and computational intelligence have been proposed to aid operator to understand system problems, perform trouble-shooting action and reduce human error under serious pressure. However, because no single method is adequate to handle all requirements for diagnostic system, hybrid approaches where different methods work in conjunction to solve parts of the problem interest researchers greatly. In this study, Multilevel Flow Models (MFM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) are proposed and employed to develop a fault diagnosis system with the intention of improving the success rate of recognition on the one hand, and improving the understandability of diagnostic process and results on the other hand. Several simulation cases were conducted for evaluating the performance of the proposed diagnosis system. The simulation results validated the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid approach.

Young Onset Dementia

Introduction Better understanding of patient experience is an important driver for service improvements and can act as a lever for system change. In the United Kingdom, the patient experience is now a central issue for the National Health Service Commissioning Board, clinical commissioning groups and the providers they commission from. Traditionally, dementia care in the United Kingdom has focused predominantly on the individual experience of those with late onset dementia, while the voice of those with young onset dementia has been, comparatively, unheard. This study aims to improve the understanding of the personal experience of younger people undergoing investigation for dementia. Methods A modified Delphi approach was undertaken with 18 younger people with dementia and 18 supporters of people with young onset dementia. Questions were informed by a scoping review of the literature (O’Malley, M., Carter, J., Stamou, V., Lafontaine, J., & Parkes, J. (2019a). Receiving a diagnosis of young onset dementia: A scoping review of lived experiences. Ageing & Mental Health, 0(0), 1-12). Summary individual statements were refined over two rounds to a final list of 29 key statements. Results Twenty-seven of these statements were rated as absolutely essential or very important and included (1) for the general practitioner to identify dementia in younger people, (2) clinicians should be compassionate, empathic and respectful during the assessment and particularly sensitive when providing information about a diagnosis, and (3) remembering that receiving the diagnosis is a lot to absorb for a person with dementia and their supporter. Statistical analyses found no difference in the scoring patterns between younger people with dementia and supporters, suggesting similar shared experiences during the diagnostic process. Conclusion Understanding the uniquely personal experience of young people going through the process of diagnosis for dementia is essential to provide person-centred, needs-led, and cost-effective services. Patient’s values and experiences should be used to support and guide clinical decision-making.

AbstractThe Cultural Formulation of Diagnosis, put away in the Appendix IX in the DSM-IV, was developed during the preparation of the DSMIV by the NIMH group Culture and Diagnosis, a group of international cultural experts to make the manual more culturally sensitive. The Cultural Formulation supplements the nomothetic or standardized diagnostic ratings of the DSM with an ideographic statement, emphasizing the patient's personal experience and the corresponding cultural reference group(s). In the Netherlands the Cultural Formulation proved to be a very useful and innovative instrument to make the diagnostic process and treatment more culturally sensitive. Aim of this article is to give more publicity to this model also in the rest of Europe.

The Way

Introduction. The subject of study in the article was the experience of the ascent of the famous Byzantine theologian to the mystical-metaphysical contemplation of divine reality, embodied in his book “Chapters on Love”. According to the Orthodox version of the metaphysics of the Way, this ultimate goal can be achieved during life only in the process of hard and practical work of an ascetic, during which the task is set not only to kill worldly desires, but also to ultimately spiritual and moral purification of the monk’s soul. In this small work, Maxim the Confessor described in detail the technology of advancing an ascetic to the last stop and staying in a blissful state of perfect love for God. Materials and Methods. The source of the research was the works of the ancient Indian, Orthodox and Sufi ascetics, which are different versions of the metaphysics of the Way. During the work, mainly thematic and transcendental analysis methods were used, which together made it possible to track the desire of Maxim the Confessor to describe and comprehend the ascent of the Orthodox monk to the mystical-metaphysical contemplation of the Lord. Discussion. The author of the article in numbered and distributed throughout the chapters of the statements of the Byzantine theologian revealed a complex system of mystical and metaphysical views, which can be called the metaphysical theory of theology. From the point of view of modern methodology and philosophy of science, he created effective theoretical constructs “pure mind”, “perfect love”, “selfishness”, “thoughts” and others, which together fully describe the mystical existential reality of a harsh Orthodox monk, which is difficult to reflect by means of language. However, his reasoning is not speculative thoughts. It is quite obvious to the researcher that they are based on rich personal experience and other prominent ascetics of Byzantine Orthodoxy. Results. The study of the soulful book of Maximus the Confessor “Chapters on Love” allows you to advance in understanding one of the most important and the most difficult moments of the Orthodox version of the metaphysics of the Way.
