通用数据模型解决了标准化电子健康记录(EHR)数据的许多挑战,但无法将其集成深度表型所需的资源。开放的生物学和生物医学本体论(OBO)铸造本体论提供了可用于生物学知识的语义计算表示,并能够整合多种生物医学数据。但是,将EHR数据映射到OBO Foundry本体论需要大量的手动策展和域专业知识。我们介绍了一个框架,用于将观察性医学成果合作伙伴关系(OMOP)标准词汇介绍给OBO铸造本体。使用此框架,我们制作了92,367条条件,8,615种药物成分和10,673个测量结果的映射。域专家验证了映射准确性,并且在24家医院进行检查时,映射覆盖了99%的条件和药物成分和68%的测量结果。最后,我们证明OMOP2OBO映射可以帮助系统地识别可能受益于基因检测的未诊断罕见病患者。

子痫前期是孕产妇和胎儿发病率和死亡率的主要原因。目前,先兆子痫的唯一明确治疗方法是胎盘的递送,这对于疾病的发病机理至关重要。已经广泛地进行了鉴定出差异表达的基因(DEGS),已经进行了广泛的先兆子痫对人胎盘的转录分析。使用无偏见的测定法确定了DEG,但是,在实验上研究DEG的决策受到许多因素的偏见,导致许多DEGS仍未被评估。一组与疾病在实验上相关的DEG,但与文献中的疾病尚无相关性,被称为无知组。先兆子痫具有广泛的科学文献,大量的DEG数据库,只有一种确定的治疗方法。促进基于知识的分析的工具能够将许多来源的不同数据结合起来,以提出基本的行动机制,可能是支持发现并提高我们对这种疾病的理解的宝贵资源。在这项工作中,我们证明了如何使用生物医学知识图(KG)来识别新型的先兆子痫分子机制。现有的开源生物医学资源和公开可用的高通量转录分析数据用于识别和注释当前未经资助的先兆子痫相关的DEG的功能。使用文本挖掘方法从PubMed摘要中鉴定出与先兆子痫相关的基因。文本媒介和荟萃分析衍生的列表的相对补体被确定为未经投票的前启示性脱位相关的DEG(n = 445),即先前的无知组。使用KG研究相关的DEG,揭示了53种新型临床相关和生物学作用的机械关联。

Many dialogue systems (DSs) lack characteristics humans have, such as emotion perception, factuality, and informativeness. Enhancing DSs with knowledge alleviates this problem, but, as many ways of doing so exist, keeping track of all proposed methods is difficult. Here, we present the first survey of knowledge-enhanced DSs. We define three categories of systems - internal, external, and hybrid - based on the knowledge they use. We survey the motivation for enhancing DSs with knowledge, used datasets, and methods for knowledge search, knowledge encoding, and knowledge incorporation. Finally, we propose how to improve existing systems based on theories from linguistics and cognitive science.

策略培训是一种多学科的康复方法,它教导技能减少中风后认知障碍者的残疾。与传统的康复方法相比,在随机,对照临床试验中已显示策略培训是促进独立性的更可行和有效的干预措施。标准化的保真度评估用于通过检查康复视频记录中的指导和定向口头提示来衡量治疗原则的依从性。尽管用于检测指导和定向的口头提示的忠诚度评估对于单一站点研究是有效的,但在大型多站点务实的务实试验中,它可能会变成劳动力密集,耗时且昂贵。为了应对广泛的战略培训实施的这一挑战,我们利用自然语言处理(NLP)技术来自动化策略培训保真度评估,即自动从康复会议的视频记录中自动识别有指导和指导的口头提示。我们开发了一种基于规则的NLP算法,一个长期术语存储器(LSTM)模型以及该任务的变压器(BERT)模型的双向编码器表示。 BERT模型以0.8075的F1得分实现了最佳性能。这项研究的发现在心理学和康复干预研究和实践方面具有广泛的希望。

抗微生物抗性(AMR)是日益增长的公共卫生威胁,估计每年造成超过1000万人死亡,在现状预测下,到2050年,全球经济损失了100万亿美元。这些损失主要是由于治疗失败的发病率和死亡率增加,医疗程序中的AMR感染以及归因于AMR的生活质量损失所致。已经提出了许多干预措施来控制AMR的发展并减轻其传播带来的风险。本文回顾了细菌AMR管理和控制的关键方面,这些方面可以利用人工智能,机器学习以及数学和统计建模等数据技术,这些领域在本世纪已经快速发展。尽管数据技术已成为生物医学研究的组成部分,但它们对AMR管理的影响仍然很小。我们概述了使用数据技术来打击AMR,详细介绍了四个互补类别的最新进展:监视,预防,诊断和治疗。我们在生物医学研究,临床实践和“一个健康”背景下使用数据技术提供了有关当前AMR控制方法的概述。我们讨论了数据技术的潜在影响和挑战在高收入和中等收入国家中面临的实施,并建议将这些技术更容易地整合到医疗保健和公共卫生中所需的具体行动,并建议使用具体的行动部门。

原则上,稀疏的神经网络应该比传统的密集网络更有效。大脑中的神经元表现出两种类型的稀疏性;它们稀疏地相互连接和稀疏活跃。当组合时,这两种类型的稀疏性,称为重量稀疏性和激活稀疏性,提出了通过两个数量级来降低神经网络的计算成本。尽管存在这种潜力,但今天的神经网络只使用重量稀疏提供适度的性能益处,因为传统的计算硬件无法有效地处理稀疏网络。在本文中,我们引入了互补稀疏性,这是一种显着提高现有硬件对双稀疏网络性能的新技术。我们证明我们可以实现高性能运行的重量稀疏网络,我们可以通过结合激活稀疏性来乘以这些加速。采用互补稀疏性,我们显示出对FPGA的推断的吞吐量和能效提高了100倍。我们分析了典型的商业卷积网络等各种内核的可扩展性和资源权衡,例如Resnet-50和MobileNetv2。我们的互补稀疏性的结果表明,重量加激活稀疏性可以是有效的缩放未来AI模型的有效组合。

Cataloging the complex behaviors of dynamical systems can be challenging, even when they are well-described by a simple mechanistic model. If such a system is of limited analytical tractability, brute force simulation is often the only resort. We present an alternative, optimization-driven approach using tools from machine learning. We apply this approach to a novel, fully-optimizable, reaction-diffusion model which incorporates complex chemical reaction networks (termed "Dense Reaction-Diffusion Network" or "Dense RDN"). This allows us to systematically identify new states and behaviors, including pattern formation, dissipation-maximizing nonequilibrium states, and replication-like dynamical structures.

The visual dimension of cities has been a fundamental subject in urban studies, since the pioneering work of scholars such as Sitte, Lynch, Arnheim, and Jacobs. Several decades later, big data and artificial intelligence (AI) are revolutionizing how people move, sense, and interact with cities. This paper reviews the literature on the appearance and function of cities to illustrate how visual information has been used to understand them. A conceptual framework, Urban Visual Intelligence, is introduced to systematically elaborate on how new image data sources and AI techniques are reshaping the way researchers perceive and measure cities, enabling the study of the physical environment and its interactions with socioeconomic environments at various scales. The paper argues that these new approaches enable researchers to revisit the classic urban theories and themes, and potentially help cities create environments that are more in line with human behaviors and aspirations in the digital age.

Logic Mill is a scalable and openly accessible software system that identifies semantically similar documents within either one domain-specific corpus or multi-domain corpora. It uses advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to generate numerical representations of documents. Currently it leverages a large pre-trained language model to generate these document representations. The system focuses on scientific publications and patent documents and contains more than 200 million documents. It is easily accessible via a simple Application Programming Interface (API) or via a web interface. Moreover, it is continuously being updated and can be extended to text corpora from other domains. We see this system as a general-purpose tool for future research applications in the social sciences and other domains.

This paper proposes a novel observer-based controller for Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) designed to directly receive measurements from a Vision-Aided Inertial Navigation System (VA-INS) and produce the required thrust and rotational torque inputs. The VA-INS is composed of a vision unit (monocular or stereo camera) and a typical low-cost 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) equipped with an accelerometer and a gyroscope. A major benefit of this approach is its applicability for environments where the Global Positioning System (GPS) is inaccessible. The proposed VTOL-UAV observer utilizes IMU and feature measurements to accurately estimate attitude (orientation), gyroscope bias, position, and linear velocity. Ability to use VA-INS measurements directly makes the proposed observer design more computationally efficient as it obviates the need for attitude and position reconstruction. Once the motion components are estimated, the observer-based controller is used to control the VTOL-UAV attitude, angular velocity, position, and linear velocity guiding the vehicle along the desired trajectory in six degrees of freedom (6 DoF). The closed-loop estimation and the control errors of the observer-based controller are proven to be exponentially stable starting from almost any initial condition. To achieve global and unique VTOL-UAV representation in 6 DoF, the proposed approach is posed on the Lie Group and the design in unit-quaternion is presented. Although the proposed approach is described in a continuous form, the discrete version is provided and tested. Keywords: Vision-aided inertial navigation system, unmanned aerial vehicle, vertical take-off and landing, stochastic, noise, Robotics, control systems, air mobility, observer-based controller algorithm, landmark measurement, exponential stability.
