Precise modeling and prediction methods are essential to develop effective strategies for disease control. However, data imbalance and the presence of noise and intensity inhomogeneity make disease detection more challenging. \u0000<italic>Goal:\u0000 In this article, a novel infectious disease pattern prediction system is proposed by integrating deterministic and stochastic model benefits with the benefits of the deep learning model. \u0000<italic>Results:\u0000 The combined benefits yield improvement in the performance of solution prediction. Moreover, the objective is also to investigate the influence of time delay on infection rates and rates associated with vaccination. \u0000<italic>Conclusions:\u0000 In this proposed framework, at first, the global stability at disease free equilibrium is effectively analysed using Routh-Haurwitz criteria and Lyapunov method, and the endemic equilibrium is analysed using non-linear Volterra integral equations in the infectious disease model. Unlike the existing model, emphasis is given to suggesting a model that is capable of investigating stability while considering the effect of vaccination and migration rate. Next, the influence of vaccination on the rate of infection is effectively predicted using an efficient deep learning model by employing the long-term dependencies in sequential data. Thus making the prediction more accurate.","PeriodicalId":33825,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology","volume":"6 ","pages":"41-53"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10669273","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142200297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study focuses in Stain Color Normalization (SCN) within a Whole-Slide Image (WSI) cohort, aiming to reduce batch biases. Building on published graphical method, this research demonstrates a mathematical population or data-driven method that optimizes the dependency on the number of reference WSIs and corresponding aggregate sums, thereby increasing SCN process efficiency. This method expedites the analysis of color convergence 50-fold by using stain vector Euclidean distance analysis, slashing the requirement for reference WSIs by more than half. The approach is validated through a tripartite methodology: 1) Stain vector euclidean distances analysis, 2) Distance computation timing, and 3) Qualitative and quantitative assessments of SCN across cancer tumors regions of interest. The results validate the performance of data-driven SCN method, thus potential to enhance the precision and reliability of computational pathology analyses.

While this theory has been exploited for a description of the motor control strategies underlying the biomechanical task, the biomechanical correlate of the synergistic activity is yet to be fully described. In this paper, the relationship between the activity of different synergies and the center of mass kinematic patterns has been investigated; in particular, a group of healthy subjects has been recruited to perform simple sit-to-stand tasks, and the electromyographic data has been recorded for the extraction of muscle synergies. An optimal model selection criterion has been adopted for dividing the participants by the number of synergies characterizing their own control schema. Synergistic activity has then been mapped onto the phase-space description of the center of mass kinematics, investigating whether a different number of synergies implies the exploration of different region of the phase-space itself. Results show how using an additional motor module allow for a wider trajectory in the phase-space, paving the way for the use of kinematic feedback to stimulate the activity of different synergies, with the aim of defining synergy-based rehabilitation or training protocols.","PeriodicalId":33825,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology","volume":"6 ","pages":"28-34"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10666157","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142200301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various assembly strategies are designed to integrate the dual views into the model input, contrasting with the use of single views alone, with a goal to maximize performance.

The primary objectives are to elucidate the effectiveness of immunotherapy in EC treatment and to introduce a stacking ensemble learning method for predicting the survival of EC patients who have undergone immunotherapy, in the context of small sample sizes, addressing the imperative of supporting clinical decision-making for healthcare professionals.
