This study used artificial neural network (ANN) modeling to predict clinical, cognitive, and psychosocial outcomes from integrated gait, speech-linguistic, demographic, physiological, and psychological data collected during single- and dual-task conditions. Forty healthy adults (ages 20-84) completed physical, cognitive, and psychosocial assessments and a dual-task walking task involving cell phone use. ANN models were optimized using hyperparameter tuning and k-fold cross-validation to predict outcomes such as the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA), Trail Making Tests (TMT A and B), Activities-Specific Balance Confidence (ABC) Scale, Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), and measures of memory, affect, and social support. The models achieved high accuracy for MOCA (100%), ABC (80%), memory function (80%), and social support satisfaction (75%). Feature importance analyses revealed key predictors such as speech-linguistic markers and sensory impairments. First-person plural pronoun used and authenticity of internal thoughts during dual-task emerged as strong predictors of MOCA and memory. Models were less accurate for complex executive tasks like TMT A and B. These findings support the potential of ANN models for the early detection of cognitive and psychosocial changes.</p>","PeriodicalId":8907,"journal":{"name":"Biomimetics","volume":"10 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12190634/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144483073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For optimizing initial task assignment, the conventional K-Means clustering method is supplanted by a hybrid clustering methodology that integrates Mini-Batch K-Means with Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN), facilitating an efficient and robust partitioning of task points. Concurrently, we incorporate a two-stage exploration-perturbation evolutionary strategy. This strategy effectively balances global exploration with local exploitation, thereby enhancing solution diversity and search depth. Comparative analyses against the standard Brain Storm Optimization (BSO) and other prominent swarm intelligence algorithms reveal that HC-BSO exhibits significant advantages in terms of total path length, computational time, and path conflict avoidance.

Cellulose, being an abundant, naturally available biopolymer, forms the basis for modern materials for wound dressing. It is a very resourceful material due to its capability to be processed into films, fibers, and membranes with tailored properties. Surface modification of cellulose membranes with nanoparticles or bioactive compounds assists in enhancing the antimicrobial properties and supports sustained drug release, essential in chronic wound infections. Electrospinning and other modern fabrication techniques allow for controlling the fiber morphology and drug-delivery characteristics.

First, the elite chaotic difference strategy is used for population initialization to generate a more uniform crayfish population and increase the quality and diversity of the population. Secondly, the differential evolution strategy and the dimensional variation strategy are introduced to improve the quality of the crayfish population before its iteration and to improve the accuracy of the optimal solution and the local search ability for crayfish at the same time. To enhance the updating approach to crayfish exploration, the Levy flight strategy is adopted. This strategy aims to improve the algorithm's search range and local search capability, prevent premature convergence, and enhance population stability. Finally, the adaptive parameter strategy is introduced to improve the development stage of crayfish, so as to better balance the global search and local mining ability of the algorithm, and to further enhance the optimization ability of the algorithm, and the ability to jump out of the local optimal. In addition, a comparison with the original COA and two sets of optimization algorithms on the CEC2019, CEC2020, and CEC2022 test sets was verified by Wilcoxon rank sum test. The results show that the proposed ICOA has strong competition. At the same time, the performance of ICOA is tested against different high-performance algorithms on 6 engineering optimization examples, 30 high-low-dimension constraint problems and 2 large-scale NP problems.
