ABSTRACT Introduction The emergence of more complex Prolonged Field Care in austere settings and the need to assist inexperienced providers’ ability to treat patients create an urgent need for effective tools to support care. We report on a project to develop a phone-/tablet-based decision support system for prehospital tactical combat casualty care that collects physiologic and other clinical data and uses machine learning to detect and differentiate shock manifestation. Materials and Methods Software interface development methods included literature review, rapid prototyping, and subject matter expert design requirements reviews. Machine learning algorithm methods included development of a model trained on publicly available Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care data, then on de-identified data from Mayo Clinic Intensive Care Unit. Results The project team interviewed 17 Army, Air Force, and Navy medical subject matter experts during design requirements review sessions. They had an average of 17 years of service in military medicine and an average of 4 deployments apiece and all had performed tactical combat casualty care on live patients during deployment. Comments provided requirements for shock identification and management in prehospital settings, including support for indication of shock probability and shock differentiation. The machine learning algorithm based on logistic regression performed best among other algorithms we tested and was able to predict shock onset 90 minutes before it occurred with better than 75% accuracy in the test dataset. Conclusions We expect the Trauma Triage, Treatment, and Training Decision Support system will augment a medic’s ability to make informed decisions based on salient patient data and to diagnose multiple types of shock through remotely trained, field deployed ML models.

Investing in stock market requires in-depth knowledge of finance and stock market dynamics. Stock Portfolio Selection and management involve complex financial analysis and decision making policies. An Individual investor seeking to invest in stock portfolio is need of a support system which can guide him to create a portfolio of stocks based on sound financial analysis. In this paper the authors designed a Financial Decision Support System (DSS) for creating and managing a portfolio of stock which is based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine learning (ML) and combining the traditional approach of mathematical models. We believe this a unique approach to perform stock portfolio, the results of this study are quite encouraging as the stock portfolios created by the DSS are based on strong financial health indices which in turn are giving Return on Investment (ROI) in the range of more than 11% in the short term and more than 61% in the long term, therefore beating the market index by a factor of 15%. This system has the potential to help millions of Individual Investors who can make their financial decisions on stocks and may eventually contribute to a more efficient financial system.

Now a day, clinical decision support systems (CDSS) are widely used in the cardiac care due to the complexity of the cardiac disease. The objective of this systematic literature review (SLR) is to identify the most common variables and machine learning techniques used to build machine learning-based clinical decision support system for cardiac care. This SLR adopts the Preferred Reporting Item for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) format. Out of 530 papers, only 21 papers met the inclusion criteria. Amongst the 22 most common variables are age, gender, heart rate, respiration rate, systolic blood pressure and medical information variables. In addition, our results have shown that Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) are some of the most common assessment scales used in CDSS for cardiac care. Logistic regression and support vector machine are the most common machine learning techniques applied in CDSS to predict mortality and other cardiac diseases like sepsis, cardiac arrest, heart failure and septic shock. These variables and assessment tools can be used to build a machine learning-based CDSS.

The particle swarm optimization (PSO) concept simulating a simplified social milieu, is optimization useful for solving nonconvex continuous optimization problems. We discuss a new learning algorithm for simultaneously adjusting connection weights in neural networks and user-specified parameters included in units. Based on our algorithm, neural network learning, e.g., learning cost or adaptability, can be improved, as demonstrated in mattress decision support system.
