Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) can downstage tumors and axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer (BC) patients. However, tumors and axillary response to NAC are not parallel and vary among patients. This study aims to explore the feasibility of deep learning radiomics nomogram (DLRN) for independently predicting the status of tumors and lymph node metastasis (LNM) after NAC. Methods: In total, 484 BC patients who completed NAC from two hospitals (H1: 297 patients in the training cohort and 99 patients in the validation cohort;H2: 88 patients in the test cohort) were retrospectively enrolled. The authors developed two deep learning radiomics (DLR) models for personalized prediction of the tumor pathologic complete response (PCR) to NAC (DLR-PCR) and the LNM status (DLR-LNM) after NAC based on pre-NAC and after-NAC ultrasonography images. Furthermore, they proposed two DLRNs (DLRN-PCR and DLRN-LNM) for two different tasks based on the clinical characteristics and DLR scores, which were generated from both DLR-PCR and DLR-LNM. Results: In the validation and test cohorts, DLRN-PCR exhibited areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of 0.903 and 0.896 with sensitivities of 91.2% and 75.0%, respectively. DLRN-LNM achieved AUCs of 0.853 and 0.863, specificities of 82.0% and 81.8%, and negative predictive values of 81.3% and 87.2% in the validation and test cohorts, respectively. The two DLRN models achieved satisfactory predictive performance based on different BC subtypes. Conclusions: The proposed DLRN models have the potential to accurately predict the tumor PCR and LNM status after NAC. In this study, we proposed two deep learning radiomics nomogram models based on pre-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and preoperative ultrasonography images for independently predicting the status of tumor and axillary lymph node (ALN) after NAC. A more comprehensive assessment of the patient's condition after NAC can be achieved by predicting the status of

This paper introduces a neural-dynamics-based active steering control (NDASC) scheme developed under artificial systems, computational experiments, and parallel execution (ACP) framework, aimed at enhancing the stability and reliability of autonomous vehicles in noisy environments. Based on the Taylor expansion theorem, noises can be represented in the form of polynomials for the desired accuracy, and therefore polynomial noises can be viewed as a more generalized representation of noises. Then, the proposed NDASC scheme includes a model predictive active steering control (MPASC) strategy solved by a polynomial noise resilience neural dynamics (PNRND) model. Computational experiments parallelly implemented upon the CarSim-Simulink platform substantiate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed NDASC scheme, providing significant theoretical and practical insights for control strategies of autonomous vehicles under various noisy environments.

There are gaps between education supply and industrial demand of talents in intelligent era. Thus, the shortage of artificial intelligence(AI) talents becomes the top challenges facing China's companies. Hence it is essential to implement educational reform to improve quality of education supply talents. However, educational reform is affected by multiple and intertwined factors. This research, therefore, developed a system dynamics-based model of education reform to sort out relationships among all factors and predict the influence of several factors on AI talents output. Then, based on this model, series of experiments are carried out to find main factors affecting cultivation of AI talents. Results show that: 1)this model could accurately simulate trends of output ratio AI talents under different educational reform measures;2) Measures including teaching mode reform, improving the application rate of new teaching model, speeding up the construction of new disciplines in higher education, developing AI, improving ethics of AI, and strengthening the integration of AI and education could play significant roles in promoting cultivation of AI talents.

Detecting and recognizing objects in images with complex backgrounds and deformations is a challenging task. In this work, we propose FrameNet, while a deep table lines segmentation network based on our Res18UNet with an adaptive deformation correction algorithm for correcting the table lines. We use Itinerary/Receipt of E-ticket for Air Transport to evaluate our methods. The experiment results show that our Res18UNet can reduce the number of parameters and improve the speed of image segmentation without significantly reducing the segmentation accuracy, and our correction method can better correct the perspective deformation and some distorted tabular images with no dependence on pixel-level ground truth image. In addition, we also apply our model and method to VAT invoice dataset and prove that they also have better transfer ability.

Interpretable learning is important for understanding human behavioral patterns in Cyber-Physical-Social-systems (CPSS). It facilitates smart decision-makings of intelligent algorithms so that the management of such human-machine hybrid systems can be efficient and optimal. Unlike the big data driven transportation management, this paper introduces a new interpretable learning method using fuzzy logic to semantically extract travel behaviors. Computational experiments based on actual traffic data indicate that our method is able to generate explicit rules, and these rules can be used to predict traffic patterns very well.

This paper is concerned with the stabilisation problem of an Euler-Bernoulli beam with uncertain parameters and disturbances. To correctly represent the beam's behaviour, the partial differential equations model is utilised for the control design of the beam without missing any high-order mode information. Then the linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) method is applied to the robust adaptive neural network control design to cope with systematic uncertainties and stabilise the beam system with disturbance compensation. Through resolving LMIs, feasible sets of designed control parameters can be effectively obtained without model linearisation. Finally, numerical simulations are done to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control.

A heuristic fast marching (FM*)-based comprehensive path planning system involving task allocation, initial planning, and replanning is presented for the robotic floating garbage cleaning mission. There are three primary contributions in this paper. First, to tackle the invalidation of the Euclidean distance metric in the obstacle environment, the task allocation is modeled as a travelling salesman problem (TSP) employing the FM*-based distance metric in order to obtain an optimal travel sequence. Second, to meet the maneuverability constraint from the surface robot and avoid the collision, a Gaussian filter is employed to adjust the curvature radius of the generated path. Third, for an efficient replanning, a neural network-based replanning point generator with the input of garbage movement vector is provided to strike a compromise for the distance cost and the computational burden. Moreover, a case study and a virtual obstacle experiment in the laboratory water tank demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed comprehensive path planning system. This work lays a firm foundation for the development of intelligent equipment for aquatic environment protection.
