The Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost) algorithm is a widely used ensemble learning framework, and it can get good classification results on general datasets. However, it is challenging to apply the AdaBoost algorithm directly to imbalanced data since it is designed mainly for processing misclassified samples rather than samples of minority classes. To better process imbalanced data, this paper introduces the indicator Area Under Curve (AUC) which can reflect the comprehensive performance of the model, and proposes an improved AdaBoost algorithm based on AUC (AdaBoost-A) which improves the error calculation performance of the AdaBoost algorithm by comprehensively considering the effects of misclassification probability and AUC. To prevent redundant or useless weak classifiers the traditional AdaBoost algorithm generated from consuming too much system resources, this paper proposes an ensemble algorithm, PSOPD-AdaBoost-A, which can re-initialize parameters to avoid falling into local optimum, and optimize the coefficients of AdaBoost weak classifiers. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm is effective for processing imbalanced data, especially the data with relatively high imbalances.

Objective: We aimed to develop a highly interpretable and effective, machine-learning based risk prediction algorithm to predict in-hospital mortality, intubation and adverse cardiovascular events in patients hospitalised with COVID-19 in Australia (AUS-COVID Score).
Materials And Methods: This prospective study across 21 hospitals included 1714 consecutive patients aged ≥ 18 in their index hospitalization with COVID-19. The dataset was separated into training (80%) and test sets (20%).

In this study, an action recognition system was developed to identify fundamental basketball movements using a single Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensor embedded in a wearable vest. This study aims to enhance basketball training by providing a high-performance, low-cost solution that minimizes discomfort for athletes. Data were collected from 21 collegiate basketball players, and movements such as dribbling, passing, shooting, layup, and standing still were recorded.

To address the challenge of accurately capturing tool wear states in small sample scenarios, this paper proposes a tool wear prediction method that combines XGBoost feature selection with a PSO-BP network. In order to solve the problem of input feature selection and parameter selection in BP neural network, a double-layer programming model of input feature and parameter selection is established, which is solved by XGBoost and PSO. Initially, vibration and cutting force signals from CNC machining are preprocessed using time-domain segmentation, Hampel filtering, and wavelet denoising.
