In this paper, we present a web-based tool that maps and visualizes datasets from New York City (NYC) Open Data, specifically on building energy efficiency and fallen trees reported to NYC311, as heatmap or pin map to show building energy efficiency and weather event impact at a neighborhood level over time. To evaluate its effectiveness in addressing climate-related urban challenges, we applied the tool to two case studies from NYC Open Data: the ENERGY STAR Score and Fallen Trees datasets. We demonstrate the heat map function for the ENERGY STAR Score dataset and the use of a combination of heat and pin map functions of the Fallen Trees dataset to highlight spatial and temporal patterns. The interactive visualization tool effectively provides data distribution and trend analysis based on postal codes while also allowing for precise, location-specific insights using longitude and latitude. Beyond its applications in data visualization, the tool can facilitate decision-making in the design of future urban environments.

Holographic MIMO (HMIMO) has recently been recognized as a promising enabler for future 6G systems through the use of an ultra-massive number of antennas in a compact space to exploit the propagation characteristics of the electromagnetic (EM) channel. Nevertheless, the promised gain of HMIMO could not be fully unleashed without an efficient means to estimate the high-dimensional channel. Bayes-optimal estimators typically necessitate either a large volume of supervised training samples or a priori knowledge of the true channel distribution, which could hardly be available in practice due to the enormous system scale and the complicated EM environments. It is thus important to design a Bayes-optimal estimator for the HMIMO channels in arbitrary and unknown EM environments, free of any supervision or priors. This work proposes a self-supervised minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) channel estimation algorithm based on powerful machine learning tools, i.e., score matching and principal component analysis. The training stage requires only the pilot signals, without knowing the spatial correlation, the ground-truth channels, or the received signal-to-noise-ratio. Simulation results will show that, even being totally self-supervised, the proposed algorithm can still approach the performance of the oracle MMSE method with an extremely low complexity, making it a competitive candidate in practice.

Eye diseases pose significant global public health challenges, often resulting to irreversible blindness if untreated. Early, precise diagnosis of these disorders is critical. In this paper, we address this crucial issue using transfer learning methods for the categorization of multiple eye disorders. The proposed architecture features a fusion-based technique that combines EfficientNetB0 and MobileNetV3Large convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for feature extraction and incorporates Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM), which dynamically focuses on significant regions of the images, enhancing the model's discriminative capability. Our proposed model achieves outstanding performance on two separate datasets: 97.85% accuracy on the Eye Disease Classification (EDC) dataset and 91.96% on the Ocular Disease Intelligent Recognition (ODIR) dataset, surpassing existing state-of-the-art approaches in ocular disease classification. By developing the proposed model, we intend to contribute to the creation of more effective diagnostic tools and eventually enhance patient outcomes in ophthalmology.

In this paper, we analyze multi-modal data including environmental, geographic, infrastructure, demographic, and socioeconomic data from New York City (NYC), to examine their impact on flood risk. We applied XGBoost machine learning model combined with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) function to analyze and interpret the contributions of these factors to flood risks. We tested the model with a window of 1 to 7 days to determine optimum time scales to capture the essential information in the time series and factors’ dependencies over various time periods. Our findings reveal that although environmental and geographic factors have a strong correlation with flood risk, socioeconomic factors, such as median age, median house value, population density, and race also play an important role in such risks. Low-income household areas have higher flood risks, which happen to also be minority communities, making them more vulnerable to flooding than higher-income communities. Furthermore, population density and level of education may also have impact on flood risks. These insights can be used to facilitate planning and preparing future flood prevention and mitigation strategies.
