Constructing an accurate predictive model for clinical decision-making on the basis of a relatively small number of tumor samples with high-dimensional microarray data remains a very challenging problem. The validity of such models has been seriously questioned due to their failure in clinical validation using independent samples. Besides the statistical issues such as selection bias, some studies further implied the probable reason was improper sample selection that did not resemble the genomic space defined by the training population. Assuming that predictions would be more reliable for interpolation than extrapolation, we set to investigate the impact of applicability domain (AD) on model performance in microarray-based genomic research by evaluating and comparing model performance for samples with different extrapolation degrees. We found that the issue of applicability domain may not exist in microarray-based genomic research for clinical applications. Therefore, it is not practicable to improve model validity based on applicability domain.

In the case of waveguide-based devices, once they are fabricated, their optical properties are already determined and cannot be dynamically controlled, which limits their applications in practice. In this paper, an isosceles triangular-coupling structure which consists of an isosceles triangle coupled with a two-bus waveguide is proposed and researched numerically and theoretically. The coupled mode theory (CMT) is introduced to verify the correctness of the simulation results, which are based on the finite difference time domain (FDTD).

Knowledge Graph-Based In-Context Learning for Advanced Fault Diagnosis in Sensor Networks.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Mathematics and Information Technology, The Education University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China.

This paper introduces a novel approach for enhancing fault diagnosis in industrial equipment systems through the application of sensor network-driven knowledge graph-based in-context learning (KG-ICL). By focusing on the critical role of sensor data in detecting and isolating faults, we construct a domain-specific knowledge graph (DSKG) that encapsulates expert knowledge relevant to industrial equipment. Utilizing a long-length entity similarity (LES) measure, we retrieve relevant information from the DSKG.

Structural damage identification based on structural health monitoring (SHM) data and machine learning (ML) is currently a rapidly developing research area in structural engineering. Traditional machine learning techniques rely heavily on feature extraction, where weak feature extraction can lead to suboptimal features and poor classification performance. In contrast, ML-based methods, particularly deep learning approaches like convolutional neural networks (CNNs), automatically extract relevant features from raw data, improving the accuracy and adaptability of the damage identification process.

Current technologies could potentially solve many of the urban problems in today's cities. Many cities already possess cameras, drones, thermometers, pollution air gauges, and other sensors. However, most of these have been designated for use in individual domains within City Hall, creating a maze of individual data domains that cannot connect to each other.

Deep Learning-Based Spectrum Sensing for Cognitive Radio Applications.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Electronics and Communication Department, Faculty of Engineering, Delta University for Science and Technology, Gamasa 35511, Egypt.

In order for cognitive radios to identify and take advantage of unused frequency bands, spectrum sensing is essential. Conventional techniques for spectrum sensing rely on extracting features from received signals at specific locations. However, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have recently demonstrated promise in improving the precision and efficacy of spectrum sensing.
