A rapid rise in inhabitants across the globe has led to the inadmissible management of waste in various countries, giving rise to various health issues and environmental pollution. The waste-collecting trucks collect waste just once or twice in seven days. Due to improper waste collection practices, the waste in the dustbin is spread on the streets. Thus, to defeat this situation, an efficient solution for smart and effective waste management using machine learning (ML) and the Internet of Things (IoT) is proposed in this paper. In the proposed solution, the authors have used an Arduino UNO microcontroller, ultrasonic sensor, and moisture sensor. Using image processing, one can measure the waste index of a particular dumping ground. A hardware prototype is also developed for the proposed framework. Thus, the presented solution for the efficient management of waste accomplishes the aim of establishing clean and pollution-free cities.

Utility of word embeddings from large language models in medical diagnosis.
J Am Med Inform Assoc
January 2025
Kennewick, WA 99338, United States.
Objective: This study evaluates the utility of word embeddings, generated by large language models (LLMs), for medical diagnosis by comparing the semantic proximity of symptoms to their eponymic disease embedding ("eponymic condition") and the mean of all symptom embeddings associated with a disease ("ensemble mean").
Materials And Methods: Symptom data for 5 diagnostically challenging pediatric diseases-CHARGE syndrome, Cowden disease, POEMS syndrome, Rheumatic fever, and Tuberous sclerosis-were collected from PubMed. Using the Ada-002 embedding model, disease names and symptoms were translated into vector representations in a high-dimensional space.
Transcription factor prediction using protein 3D secondary structures.
Bioinformatics
January 2025
Institute for Computational Systems Biology, Universität Hamburg, Hamburg, 22761, Germany.
Motivation: Transcription factors (TFs) are DNA-binding proteins that regulate gene expression. Traditional methods predict a protein as a TF if the protein contains any DNA-binding domains (DBDs) of known TFs. However, this approach fails to identify a novel TF that does not contain any known DBDs.

Department of Surgery, Indiana University School of Medicine, Indianapolis, IN, United States.
Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common complication after major surgery and is associated with poor outcomes in older adults. Early identification of patients at high risk of POD can enable targeted prevention efforts. However, existing POD prediction models require inpatient data collected during the hospital stay, which delays predictions and limits scalability.

Mental Illness Research, Education and Clinical Center, Crescenz Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Importance: Recently, the US Food and Drug Administration gave premarketing approval to an algorithm based on its purported ability to identify individuals at genetic risk for opioid use disorder (OUD). However, the clinical utility of the candidate genetic variants included in the algorithm has not been independently demonstrated.
Objective: To assess the utility of 15 genetic variants from an algorithm intended to predict OUD risk.
Conjunctival Bulbar Redness Extraction Pipeline for High-Resolution Ocular Surface Photography.
Transl Vis Sci Technol
January 2025
Institute of the Electrical and Biomedical Engineering, UMIT TIROL - Private University for Health Sciences and Health Technology, Hall in Tyrol, Austria.
Purpose: To extract conjunctival bulbar redness from standardized high-resolution ocular surface photographs of a novel imaging system by implementing an image analysis pipeline.
Methods: Data from two trials (healthy; outgoing ophthalmic clinic) were collected, processed, and used to train a machine learning model for ocular surface segmentation. Various regions of interest were defined to globally and locally extract a redness biomarker based on color intensity.
