Abstract Personalized gait curves are generated to enhance patient adaptability to gait trajectories used for passive training in the early stage of rehabilitation for hemiplegic patients. The article utilizes the random forest algorithm to construct a gait parameter model, which maps the relationship between parameters such as height, weight, age, gender, and gait speed, achieving prediction of key points on the gait curve. To enhance prediction accuracy, an attention mechanism is introduced into the algorithm to focus more on the main features. Meanwhile, to ensure high similarity between the reconstructed gait curve and the normal one, More >

Abstract Virtual machine (VM) consolidation aims to run VMs on the least number of physical machines (PMs). The optimal consolidation significantly reduces energy consumption (EC), quality of service (QoS) in applications, and resource utilization. This paper proposes a prediction-based multi-objective VM consolidation approach to search for the best mapping between VMs and PMs with good timeliness and practical value. We use a hybrid model based on Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Support Vector Regression (SVR) (HPAS) as a prediction model and consolidate VMs to PMs based on prediction results by HPAS, aiming at minimizing the More >

Abstract The growing global requirement for food and the need for sustainable farming in an era of a changing climate and scarce resources have inspired substantial crop yield prediction research. Deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) models effectively deal with such challenges. This research paper comprehensively analyses recent advancements in crop yield prediction from January 2016 to March 2024. In addition, it analyses the effectiveness of various input parameters considered in crop yield prediction models. We conducted an in-depth search and gathered studies that employed crop modeling and AI-based methods to predict crop yield. The… More >

Abstract The production capacity of shale oil reservoirs after hydraulic fracturing is influenced by a complex interplay involving geological characteristics, engineering quality, and well conditions. These relationships, nonlinear in nature, pose challenges for accurate description through physical models. While field data provides insights into real-world effects, its limited volume and quality restrict its utility. Complementing this, numerical simulation models offer effective support. To harness the strengths of both data-driven and model-driven approaches, this study established a shale oil production capacity prediction model based on a machine learning combination model. Leveraging fracturing development data from 236 wells… More >

Abstract Due to the increasingly severe challenges brought by various epidemic diseases, people urgently need intelligent outbreak trend prediction. Predicting disease onset is very important to assist decision-making. Most of the existing work fails to make full use of the temporal and spatial characteristics of epidemics, and also relies on multivariate data for prediction. In this paper, we propose a Multi-Scale Location Attention Graph Neural Networks (MSLAGNN) based on a large number of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) patient electronic medical records research sequence source data sets. In order to understand the geography and… More >

Abstract Numerical predictions are made for Laminar Forced convection heat transfer with and without buoyancy effects for Supercritical Nitrogen flowing over an isothermal horizontal flat plate with a heated surface facing downwards. Computations are performed by varying the value of from 5 to 30 K and ratio from 1.1 to 1.5. Variation of all the thermophysical properties of supercritical Nitrogen is considered. The wall temperatures are chosen in such a way that two values of T are less than is the temperature at which the fluid has a maximum value of C for the given pressure), More >

Abstract Recent industrial explosions globally have intensified the focus in mechanical engineering on designing infrastructure systems and networks capable of withstanding blast loading. Initially centered on high-profile facilities such as embassies and petrochemical plants, this concern now extends to a wider array of infrastructures and facilities. Engineers and scholars increasingly prioritize structural safety against explosions, particularly to prevent disproportionate collapse and damage to nearby structures. Urbanization has further amplified the reliance on oil and gas pipelines, making them vital for urban life and prime targets for terrorist activities. Consequently, there is a growing imperative for computational… More >

Abstract Geo-engineering problems are known for their complexity and high uncertainty levels, requiring precise definitions, past experiences, logical reasoning, mathematical analysis, and practical insight to address them effectively. Soft Computing (SC) methods have gained popularity in engineering disciplines such as mining and civil engineering due to computer hardware and machine learning advancements. Unlike traditional hard computing approaches, SC models use soft values and fuzzy sets to navigate uncertain environments. This study focuses on the application of SC methods to predict backbreak, a common issue in blasting operations within mining and civil projects. Backbreak, which refers to More >

Abstract Suicide has become a critical concern, necessitating the development of effective preventative strategies. Social media platforms offer a valuable resource for identifying signs of suicidal ideation. Despite progress in detecting suicidal ideation on social media, accurately identifying individuals who express suicidal thoughts less openly or infrequently poses a significant challenge. To tackle this, we have developed a dataset focused on Chinese suicide narratives from Weibo’s Tree Hole feature and introduced an ensemble model named Text Convolutional Neural Network based on Social Network relationships (TCNN-SN). This model enhances predictive performance by leveraging social network relationship features More >
