Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT), a gradational rescue for a wide range of neoplastic, chronic, and allied disorders emanating from the bone marrow, is an efficacious surgical treatment. Several risk factors, such as post-transplant illnesses, new malignancies, and even organ damage, can impair long-term survival after BMT. Therefore, technologies like Machine Learning (ML) are being linked to hematology for investigating the survival prediction of BMT receivers along with the influences that limit their resilience. In this study, a comprehensive approach is undertaken where an efficient survival classification model is presented, incorporating the Chi-squared feature selection method to address the dimensionality problem and Hyper Parameter Optimization (HPO) to increase accuracy. A synthetic dataset is generated by imputing the missing values, transforming the data using dummy variable encoding, and compressing the dataset from 59 features to the 11 most correlated features using Chi-squared feature selection. The dataset was split into two sections (train and test set) with a ratio of 80:20, and the hyper-parameters were optimized using Grid Search Cross-Validation (GSCV). Several supervised ML methods were trained in this regard, like Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), Logistic Regression (LR), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Gradient Boosting Classifier (GBC), Ada Boost (AdB), and XG Boost (XGB). The simulations have been performed for both the default and optimized hyperparameters by using the original and reduced synthetic dataset. After ranking the features using the Chi-squared test, it was observed that the top 11 features with HPO, resulted in the same accuracy of prediction (94.73%) as the entire dataset with default parameters. Moreover, this approach requires less time and resources for predicting the survivability of children undergoing BMT. Hence, the proposed approach may aid in the development of a computer-aided diagnostic system with satisfactory acc

This topic proposed a Sliding Mode Control (SMC) strategy utilizing the BAT Algorithm (BAT-SMC) for regulating concentration and temperature in a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) system. The SMC is designed to maintain concentration (CA) and temperature (T) within desired setpoints by adapting sliding surfaces in the presence of disturbances and system uncertainties. The BAT Algorithm enhances the SMC by optimizing control parameters, reducing chattering effects, and improving tracking accuracy. Simulations validate the efficacy of BAT-SMC, showing improved dynamic performance for both concentration and temperature control compared to other controllers.

The ever-growing prevalence of software systems necessitates robust and efficient vulnerability assessment methods. An automated vulnerability assessment model can significantly streamline this process, providing accurate identification of vulnerability severity levels based on the given textual descriptions. This paper addresses this critical need by proposing a novel vulnerability score predictor model. Our model uses Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) and deep learning to classify vulnerability metrics accurately. We have fine-tuned the BERT tokenizer on NVD’s descriptions and used TextCNN for better performance. This approach represents a significant advancement in the field of automated vulnerability assessment, offering substantial benefits for security professionals by streamlining vulnerability identification and prioritization. The carried out experimental evaluations in comparison to various deep learning models, including LSTM, CNN, and LSTM-Attention, as well as two state-of-the-art automated vulnerability assessment baselines indicate an accuracy score of over $\mathbf{9 7 \%}$ across all vulnerability metrics.

This paper investigates the properties of the distributed filter under scaled noise covariances. Initially, three performance indices, along with three auxiliary indices, are introduced to evaluate the performance of the distributed filter. By providing the specific assumptions on the scaled parameters, the proportional relations among three performance indices are revealed. The relations of the gain matrices under the nominal and actual parameter scenarios are also examined. Furthermore, the impact of the fusion step on these relations is elucidated. These results provide guidance for designing the nominal noise covariance and evaluating the performance of the distributed filter under the scaled noise covariances. The theoretical results are validated through simulations.

Modern industries are constantly aiming to maximize utilization and performance of their machine equipment and minimize costly and unscheduled downtime. In the recent years, this was made possible with the advancement of technology and the coming of the fourth industrial revolution, also known as Industry 4.0, which introduced the Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence systems in industrial applications. This allowed the employment of predictive maintenance methods able to assess the health of the equipment and diagnose possible future failures. In this work, an experimental assembly was constructed comprised by an electrical motor, a reduction gear, an axle, a coupler, a bearing and a vibration sensor attached to the latter. Three types of experiments were conducted for the purpose of producing a labeled dataset based on vibration measurements. Specifically, measurements were made during the bearing's working in normal operating state, one with lack and one with excess amount of grease. A preliminary statistical analysis was performed while a Multilayer Perceptron model was employed to automatically predict the status of the bearing. The dataset is freely available at the Zenodo data repository.

In this paper, we consider distributed Independent Component Analysis (ICA) in wireless networks, where data from several geographically distributed wireless nodes (nodes) must be transmitted to a central server (server) to extract original sources through ICA. However, transmitting the vast amount of data over wireless channels to the server poses significant challenges due to limited bandwidth and privacy concerns. Our research addresses how to encode node data to meet channel rate constraints while providing maximally relevant information for ICA. Particularly, we propose a distributed functional compression framework for learning ICA over orthogonal AWGN channels. The framework leverages the Information Bottleneck (IB) principle to encode and compress the data to meet the channel rate constraint while maximally preserving the functionally relevant information for ICA. We train both neural encoders at the nodes and a neural decoder at the server in an unsupervised manner using the IB principle. We consider ICA for both linear and nonlinear mixing setups. Compared to the state-of-the-art, over real dataset, our proposed framework demonstrates a remarkable improvement of up to approximately 43% in accurately estimating the source signals in ICA while meeting the channels’ rate constraints. Finally, we propose a three-stage training algorithm, where the raw sensory data never leaves the nodes either for training or inference, to reduce the communication overhead. We show that our proposed training algorithm notably reduces channel use compared to the traditional cloud-based method, where the observed data from the nodes are compressed and transmitted to the cloud for learning ICA.

A global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is a position estimation technique using satellites and is now widely used in various fields. However, there are many factors between the rover and the satellite that interfere with position estimation. Satellite time error, orbital error, ionospheric/tropospheric refraction, and multiple paths are some of the factors that prevent accurate position estimation. To improve the position estimation accuracy, real-time kinematic (RTK) has been developed. Therefore, in this paper, we develop a device with RTK technology to improve the position estimation accuracy of a rover. We developed a device with an accuracy of about 10 cm or less using RTK technology.
