BACKGROUND Radiomics can improve the accuracy of traditional image diagnosis to evaluate extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC); however, this is limited by variations across radiologists, subjective evaluation, and restricted data. A radiomics-based particle swarm optimization and support vector machine (PSO-SVM) model may provide a more accurate auxiliary diagnosis for assessing differentiation degree (DD) and lymph node metastasis (LNM) of ECC. OBJECTIVE The objective of our study is to develop a PSO-SVM radiomics model for predicting DD and LNM of ECC. METHODS For this retrospective study, the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of 110 patients with ECC who were diagnosed from January 2011 to October 2019 were used to construct a radiomics prediction model. Radiomics features were extracted from T1-precontrast weighted imaging (T1WI), T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) using MaZda software (version 4.6; Institute of Electronics, Technical University of Lodz). We performed dimension reduction to obtain 30 optimal features of each sequence, respectively. A PSO-SVM radiomics model was developed to predict DD and LNM of ECC by incorporating radiomics features and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values. We randomly divided the 110 cases into a training group (88/110, 80%) and a testing group (22/110, 20%). The performance of the model was evaluated by analyzing the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULTS A radiomics model based on PSO-SVM was developed by using 110 patients with ECC. This model produced average AUCs of 0.8905 and 0.8461, respectively, for DD in the training and testing groups of patients with ECC. The average AUCs of the LNM in the training and testing groups of patients with ECC were 0.9036 and 0.8889, respectively. For the 110 patients, this model has high predictive performance. The average accuracy values of the training group and testing group for DD of ECC were 82.6% and 80.9%, respectively; the average accuracy values of the training group and testing group for LNM of ECC were 83.6% and 81.2%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The MRI-based PSO-SVM radiomics model might be useful for auxiliary clinical diagnosis and decision-making, which has a good potential for clinical application for DD and LNM of ECC.

Mine disasters often happen unpredictably and it is necessary to find an effective deformation forecasting method. A model between deformation data and the factors data that affected deformation is built in this study. The factors contain hydro-geological factors and meteorological factors. Their relationship presents a complex nonlinear relationship which cannot be solved by ordinary methods such as multiple linear regression. With the development of artificial intelligence algorithm, Artificial Neural Network, Support Vector Machine, and Extreme Learning Machine come to the fore. Support Vector Machine could establish a deformation prediction model perfectly in the condition that there is less input data and output data. The deformation forecast model that uses quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization algorithm is selected to optimize the Support Vector Machine. The optimum configuration of Support Vector Machine model needs to be determined by two parameters, that is, normalized mean square error and correlation coefficient (R). Quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization could determine the optimal parameter values by minimizing normalized mean square error. It investigates the application effect of the proposed quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization–Support Vector Machine model by comparing their performances of popular forecasting models, such as Support Vector Machine, GA-Support Vector Machine, and particle swarm optimization–Support Vector Machine models. The results show that the proposed model has better performances in mine slope surface deformation and is superior to its rivals.

A new facial authentication model called global local adaptive particle swarm optimization-based support vector machine, was proposed in this paper. The proposed model aimed to solve the problem of finding the preeminent parameters of support vector machine in order to come out with a powerful human facial authentication technique. The conventional particle swarm optimization algorithm was utilized with support vector machine to explore the preeminent parameters of support vector machine. However, the particle swarm optimization support vector machine model has some limitations in selecting the velocity coefficient and inertia weight. One of the best approaches, which is used to solve the velocity coefficient problem, is adaptive acceleration particle swarm optimization. Also, the global-local best inertia weight is used efficiently for selecting the inertia weight. Therefore, the global local adaptive particle swarm optimization-based support vector machine model was proposed based on combining adaptive acceleration particle swarm optimization, global-local best inertia weight, and support vector machine. The proposed model used the principal component analysis approach for feature extraction, as well as global local adaptive particle swarm optimization for finding the preeminent parameters of support vector machine. In the experiments, two datasets (YALEB and CASIAV5) were used, and the suggested model was compared with particle swarm optimization support vector machine and adaptive acceleration particle swarm optimization support vector machine methods. The comparison was via accuracy, computational time, and optimal parameters of support vector machine. Our model can be used for security applications and apply for human facial authentication.
