Abstract Association rule learning (ARL) is a widely used technique for discovering relationships within datasets. However, it often generates excessive irrelevant or ambiguous rules. Therefore, post-processing is crucial not only for removing irrelevant or redundant rules but also for uncovering hidden associations that impact other factors. Recently, several post-processing methods have been proposed, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. In this paper, we propose THAPE (Tunable Hybrid Associative Predictive Engine), which combines descriptive and predictive techniques. By leveraging both techniques, our aim is to enhance the quality of analyzing generated rules. This includes removing irrelevant… More >

Abstract The identification of reliable predictors of chemotherapy sensitivity and early screening of adenocarcinoma of gastroesophageal junction (AGEJ) patients who are resistant to chemotherapy has become an important area of clinical and translational research. We aimed to investigate the predictive value of seven cancerassociated cellular proteins for neoadjuvant chemotherapy in AGEJ patients. Clinical data of 93 patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced AGEJ between June 2010 and December 2014 were reviewed. All patients were administered the combination regimen of S-1 and oxaliplatin (SOX). Expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), glutathione S-transferase-p (GST-π), topoisomerase II (topo II),… More >

Abstract This paper addresses the micro wind-hydrogen coupled system, aiming to improve the power tracking capability of micro wind farms, the regulation capability of hydrogen storage systems, and to mitigate the volatility of wind power generation. A predictive control strategy for the micro wind-hydrogen coupled system is proposed based on the ultra-short-term wind power prediction, the hydrogen storage state division interval, and the daily scheduled output of wind power generation. The control strategy maximizes the power tracking capability, the regulation capability of the hydrogen storage system, and the fluctuation of the joint output of the wind-hydrogen… More >

Abstract Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is a promising technology that provides on-demand computing and efficient storage services as close to end users as possible. In an MEC environment, servers are deployed closer to mobile terminals to exploit storage infrastructure, improve content delivery efficiency, and enhance user experience. However, due to the limited capacity of edge servers, it remains a significant challenge to meet the changing, time-varying, and customized needs for highly diversified content of users. Recently, techniques for caching content at the edge are becoming popular for addressing the above challenges. It is capable of filling… More >

Abstract Medical Internet of Things (IoT) devices are becoming more and more common in healthcare. This has created a huge need for advanced predictive health modeling strategies that can make good use of the growing amount of multimodal data to find potential health risks early and help individuals in a personalized way. Existing methods, while useful, have limitations in predictive accuracy, delay, personalization, and user interpretability, requiring a more comprehensive and efficient approach to harness modern medical IoT devices. MAIPFE is a multimodal approach integrating pre-emptive analysis, personalized feature selection, and explainable AI for real-time health… More >

Abstract Building emission reduction is an important way to achieve China’s carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals. Aiming at the problem of low carbon economic operation of a photovoltaic energy storage building system, a multi-time scale optimal scheduling strategy based on model predictive control (MPC) is proposed under the consideration of load optimization. First, load optimization is achieved by controlling the charging time of electric vehicles as well as adjusting the air conditioning operation temperature, and the photovoltaic energy storage building system model is constructed to propose a day-ahead scheduling strategy with the lowest daily operation… More >

Abstract The plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) technology can effectively address the issues of poor dynamics and higher energy consumption commonly found in traditional mining dump trucks. Meanwhile, plug-in hybrid electric trucks can achieve excellent fuel economy through efficient energy management strategies (EMS). Therefore, a series hybrid system is constructed based on a 100-ton mining dump truck in this paper. And inspired by the dynamic programming (DP) algorithm, a predictive equivalent consumption minimization strategy (P-ECMS) based on the DP optimization result is proposed. Based on the optimal control manifold and the SOC reference trajectory obtained by the More >

Abstract Due to the impact of source-load prediction power errors and uncertainties, the actual operation of the park will have a wide range of fluctuations compared with the expected state, resulting in its inability to achieve the expected economy. This paper constructs an operating simulation model of the park power grid operation considering demand response and proposes a multi-time scale operating simulation method that combines day-ahead optimization and model predictive control (MPC). In the day-ahead stage, an operating simulation plan that comprehensively considers the user’s side comfort and operating costs is proposed with a long-term time More >

Abstract Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is still an important health problem, and understanding its pathological mechanisms is essential for its diagnosis and treatment. There is evidence that autophagy may play a role in OA progression, but the exact mechanism remains unclear. Methods: In this study, we adopted a multi-prong approach to systematically identify the key autophagy-related genes (ARGs) associated with OA. Through weighted gene co-expression network analysis, we initially identified significant gene modules associated with OA. Subsequent differential gene analysis performed on normal and OA specimens. Further analysis later using the MCC algorithm highlighted hub ARGs. These… More >

Abstract Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems have become a crucial tool for the operational management of long tunnels. For immersed tunnels exposed to both traffic loads and the effects of the marine environment, efficiently identifying abnormal conditions from the extensive unannotated SHM data presents a significant challenge. This study proposed a model-based approach for anomaly detection and conducted validation and comparative analysis of two distinct temporal predictive models using SHM data from a real immersed tunnel. Firstly, a dynamic predictive model-based anomaly detection method is proposed, which utilizes a rolling time window for modeling to achieve… More >
