In a new economy where immaterial capital is crucial, companies are increasingly aware of the necessity to efficiently manage human capital by optimizing its engagement in the workplace. The accession of the human capital through its engagement is an efficient leverage that leads to a real improvement of the companies’ performance. Despite the staple attention towards human resource management, and the efforts undertaken to satisfy and motivate the personnel, the issue of engagement still persists. The main objective of this paper is to study and model the relation between eight predictors and a response variable given by the employees’ engagement. We have used different models to figure out the relation between the predictors and the dependent variable after carrying out a survey of several employees from different companies. The techniques used in this paper are linear regression, ordinal logistic regression, Gradient Boosting Machine learning and neural networks. The data used in this study is the results of a questionnaire completed by 60 individuals. The results obtained show that the neural networks perform slightly the rest of models considering the training and validation error of modelling and also highlight the complex relation linking the predictors and the predicted.

Maximum Air Temperature

The extended range temperature prediction is of great importance for public health, energy and agriculture. The two machine learning methods, namely, the neural networks and natural gradient boosting (NGBoost), are applied to improve the prediction skills of the 2-m maximum air temperature with lead times of 1–35 days over East Asia based on the Environmental Modeling Center, Global Ensemble Forecast System (EMC-GEFS), under the Subseasonal Experiment (SubX) of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP). The ensemble model output statistics (EMOS) method is conducted as the benchmark for comparison. The results show that all the post-processing methods can efficiently reduce the prediction biases and uncertainties, especially in the lead week 1–2. The two machine learning methods outperform EMOS by approximately 0.2 in terms of the continuous ranked probability score (CRPS) overall. The neural networks and NGBoost behave as the best models in more than 90% of the study area over the validation period. In our study, CRPS, which is not a common loss function in machine learning, is introduced to make probabilistic forecasting possible for traditional neural networks. Moreover, we extend the NGBoost model to atmospheric sciences of probabilistic temperature forecasting which obtains satisfying performances.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) after liver transplantation has been reported to be associated with increased mortality. Recently, machine learning approaches were reported to have better predictive ability than the classic statistical analysis. We compared the performance of machine learning approaches with that of logistic regression analysis to predict AKI after liver transplantation. We reviewed 1211 patients and preoperative and intraoperative anesthesia and surgery-related variables were obtained. The primary outcome was postoperative AKI defined by acute kidney injury network criteria. The following machine learning techniques were used: decision tree, random forest, gradient boosting machine, support vector machine, naïve Bayes, multilayer perceptron, and deep belief networks. These techniques were compared with logistic regression analysis regarding the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUROC). AKI developed in 365 patients (30.1%). The performance in terms of AUROC was best in gradient boosting machine among all analyses to predict AKI of all stages (0.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.86–0.93) or stage 2 or 3 AKI. The AUROC of logistic regression analysis was 0.61 (95% CI 0.56–0.66). Decision tree and random forest techniques showed moderate performance (AUROC 0.86 and 0.85, respectively). The AUROC of support the vector machine, naïve Bayes, neural network, and deep belief network was smaller than that of the other models. In our comparison of seven machine learning approaches with logistic regression analysis, the gradient boosting machine showed the best performance with the highest AUROC. An internet-based risk estimator was developed based on our model of gradient boosting. However, prospective studies are required to validate our results.

AbstractEditor’s PerspectiveWhat We Already Know about This TopicWhat This Article Tells Us That Is NewBackgroundHypotension is a risk factor for adverse perioperative outcomes. Machine-learning methods allow large amounts of data for development of robust predictive analytics. The authors hypothesized that machine-learning methods can provide prediction for the risk of postinduction hypotension.MethodsData was extracted from the electronic health record of a single quaternary care center from November 2015 to May 2016 for patients over age 12 that underwent general anesthesia, without procedure exclusions. Multiple supervised machine-learning classification techniques were attempted, with postinduction hypotension (mean arterial pressure less than 55 mmHg within 10 min of induction by any measurement) as primary outcome, and preoperative medications, medical comorbidities, induction medications, and intraoperative vital signs as features. Discrimination was assessed using cross-validated area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. The best performing model was tuned and final performance assessed using split-set validation.ResultsOut of 13,323 cases, 1,185 (8.9%) experienced postinduction hypotension. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve using logistic regression was 0.71 (95% CI, 0.70 to 0.72), support vector machines was 0.63 (95% CI, 0.58 to 0.60), naive Bayes was 0.69 (95% CI, 0.67 to 0.69), k-nearest neighbor was 0.64 (95% CI, 0.63 to 0.65), linear discriminant analysis was 0.72 (95% CI, 0.71 to 0.73), random forest was 0.74 (95% CI, 0.73 to 0.75), neural nets 0.71 (95% CI, 0.69 to 0.71), and gradient boosting machine 0.76 (95% CI, 0.75 to 0.77). Test set area for the gradient boosting machine was 0.74 (95% CI, 0.72 to 0.77).ConclusionsThe success of this technique in predicting postinduction hypotension demonstrates feasibility of machine-learning models for predictive analytics in the field of anesthesiology, with performance dependent on model selection and appropriate tuning.

Broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) targeting the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) have promising utility in prevention and treatment of HIV-1 infection with several undergoing clinical trials. Due to high sequence diversity and mutation rate of HIV-1, viral isolates are often resistant to particular bNAbs. Resistant strains are commonly identified by time-consuming and expensive in vitro neutralization experiments. Here, we developed machine learning-based classifiers that accurately predict resistance of HIV-1 strains to 33 neutralizing antibodies. Notably, our classifiers achieved an overall prediction accuracy of 96% for 212 clinical isolates from patients enrolled in four different clinical trials. Moreover, use of the tree-based machine learning method gradient boosting machine enabled us to identify critical epitope features that distinguish between antibody resistance and sensitivity. The availability of an in silico antibody resistance predictor will facilitate informed decisions of antibody usage in clinical settings.

In recent years, huge amounts of data in form of images has been efficiently created and accumulated at extraordinary rates. This huge amount of data that has high volume and velocity has presented us with the problem of coming up with practical and effective ways to classify it for analysis. Existing classification systems can never fulfil the demand and the difficulties of accurately classifying such data. In this paper, we built a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) which is one of the most powerful and popular machine learning tools used in image recognition systems for classifying images from one of the widely used image datasets CIFAR-10. This paper also gives a thorough overview of the working of our CNN architecture with its parameters and difficulties.
