Although the incidence of central nervous system (CNS) cancers is not high, it significantly reduces a patient’s quality of life and results in high mortality rates. A low incidence also means a low number of cases, which in turn means a low amount of information. To compensate, researchers have tried to increase the amount of information available from a single test using high-throughput technologies. This approach, referred to as single-omics analysis, has only been partially successful as one type of data may not be able to appropriately describe all the characteristics of a tumor. It is presently unclear what type of data can describe a particular clinical situation. One way to solve this problem is to use multi-omics data. When using many types of data, a selected data type or a combination of them may effectively resolve a clinical question. Hence, we conducted a comprehensive survey of papers in the field of neuro-oncology that used multi-omics data for analysis and found that most of the papers utilized machine learning techniques. This fact shows that it is useful to utilize machine learning techniques in multi-omics analysis. In this review, we discuss the current status of multi-omics analysis in the field of neuro-oncology and the importance of using machine learning techniques.

Additive manufacturing (AM) is an attractive technology for manufacturing industry due to flexibility in design and functionality, but inconsistency in quality is one of the major limitations that does not allow utilizing this technology for production of end-use parts. Prediction of mechanical properties can be one of the possible ways to improve the repeatability of the results. The part placement, part orientation, and STL model properties (number of mesh triangles, surface, and volume) are used to predict tensile modulus, nominal stress and elongation at break for polyamide 2200 (also known as PA12). EOS P395 polymer powder bed fusion system was used to fabricate 217 specimens in two identical builds (434 specimens in total). Prediction is performed for XYZ, XZY, ZYX, and Angle orientations separately, and all orientations together. The different non-linear models based on machine learning methods have higher prediction accuracy compared with linear regression models. Linear regression models have prediction accuracy higher than 80% only for Tensile Modulus and Elongation at break in Angle orientation. Since orientation-based modeling has low prediction accuracy due to a small number of data points and lack of information about material properties, these models need to be improved in the future based on additional experimental work.

The emergence of ideation methods that generate large volumes of early-phase ideas has led to a need for reliable and efficient metrics for measuring the creativity of these ideas. However, existing methods of human judgment-based creativity assessments, as well as numeric model-based creativity assessment approaches suffer from low reliability and prohibitive computational burdens on human raters due to the high level of human input needed to calculate creativity scores. In addition, there is a need for an efficient method of computing the creativity of large sets of design ideas typically generated during the design process. This paper focuses on developing and empirically testing a machine learning approach for computing design creativity of large sets of design ideas to increase the efficiency and reliability of creativity evaluation methods in design research. The results of this study show that machine learning techniques can predict creativity of ideas with relatively high accuracy and sensitivity. These findings show that machine learning has the potential to be used for rating the creativity of ideas generated based on their descriptions.

Solar power is generated using photovoltaic (PV) systems all over the world. Because the output power of PV systems is alternating and highly dependent on environmental circumstances, solar power sources are unpredictable in nature. Irradiance, humidity, PV surface temperature, and wind speed are only a few of these variables. Because of the unpredictability in photovoltaic generating, it’s crucial to plan ahead for solar power generation as in solar power forecasting is required for electric grid. Solar power generation is weather-dependent and unpredictable, this forecast is complex and difficult. The impacts of various environmental conditions on the output of a PV system are discussed. Machine Learning (ML) algorithms have shown great results in time series forecasting and so can be used to anticipate power with weather conditions as model inputs. The use of multiple machine learning, Deep learning and artificial neural network techniques to perform solar power forecasting. Here in this regression models from machine learning techniques like support vector machine regressor, random forest regressor and linear regression model from which random forest regressor beaten the other two regression models with vast accuracy.

<p>The Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) is a novel remote sensing technique exploiting GNSS signals after reflection off the Earth's surface. The capability of spaceborne GNSS-R to monitor ocean state and the surface wind is recently well demonstrated, which offers an unprecedented sampling rate and much robustness during rainfall. The Cyclone GNSS (CyGNSS) is the first spaceborne mission fully dedicated to GNSS-R, launched in December 2016.</p><p>Thanks to the low development costs of the GNSS-R satellite missions as well as the capability of tracking multiple reflected signals from numerous GNSS transmitters, the GNSS-R datasets are much bigger compared to those from conventional remote sensing techniques. The CyGNSS provides a high number of unique samples in the order of a few millions monthly.  Deep learning can therefore be implemented in GNSS-R even more efficiently than other remote sensing domains. With the upcoming GNSS-R CubeSats, the data volume is expected to increase in the near future and GNSS-R “Big data” can be a future challenge. Deep learning methods are additionally able to correct the potential effects, both technical and geophysical, dictated by data empirically when the mechanisms are not well described by the theoretical knowledge. This poses the question if GNSS-R should embrace deep learning and can benefit from this modern data scientific method like other Earth Observation domains.</p><p>The receivers onboard CyGNSS cross-correlate the reflected signals received at a nadir antenna to a locally generated replica. The cross-correlation power at a range of the signal delay and Doppler frequency shift is the observational output of the receivers being called delay-Doppler Maps (DDMs). The mapped power is inversely proportional to the ocean roughness and consequently surface winds.</p><p>Few recent studies innovatively show some merits of machine learning techniques for the derivations of ocean winds from the DDMs. However, the capability of machine learning techniques, especially deep learning for an operational data derivation needs to be better characterized. Normally, the operational retrieval algorithms are developed based on an existing dataset and are supposed to operate on the upcoming measurements. Therefore, machine learning-based models are supposed to generalize well on the unseen data in future periods. Herein, we aim at the characterization of deep learning capabilities for these GNSS-R operational purposes.</p><p>In this interdisciplinary study, we present a deep learning algorithm processing the CyGNSS measurements to derive wind speed data. The model is supposed to meet an acceptable level of generalization on the upcoming unseen data, and alternatively can be used as an operational processing algorithm. We propose a deep model based on convolutional and fully connected layers processing the DDMs besides ancillary input features. The model leads to the so-far best quality of global wind speed estimates using GNSS-R measurements with a general root mean square error of 1.3 m/s over unseen data in a time span different from that of the training data.</p>
