Still, certain issues exist with the application of machine learning (ML) artificial neural network (ANN) algorithms. The best known is the need for a large amount of statistically varied data, which can be addressed with expanded collection or data augmentation. Other issues are also present. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) show extremely high performance on image-shaped data. Despite their performance, CNNs exhibit a large issue which is the sensitivity to image orientation. Previous research shows that varying the orientation of images may greatly lower the performance of the trained CNN. This is especially problematic in certain applications, such as X-ray radiography, an example of which is presented here. Previous research shows that the performance of CNNs is higher when used on images in a single orientation (left or right), as opposed to the combination of both. This means that the data needs to be differentiated before it enters the classification model. In this paper, the CNN-based model for differentiation between left and right-oriented images is presented. Multiple CNNs are trained and tested, with the highest performing being the VGG16 architecture which achieved an Accuracy of 0.99 (+/- 0.01), and an AUC of 0.98 (+/- 0.01). These results show that CNNs can be used to address the issue of orientation sensitivity by splitting the data in advance of being used in classification models.","PeriodicalId":9171,"journal":{"name":"Book of Proceedings: 1st International Conference on Chemo and BioInformatics,","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89167866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to compare the parameters that describe DPI aerodynamic performance, obtained computationally by CFD-DPM and in vitro by next generation impactor (NGI). The analyzed parameters included: emitted fraction (EF), fine particle fraction (FPF), mass median aerodynamic diameter (MMAD) and geometric standard deviation (GSD). The results showed that CFD-DPM simulated EF values were generally comparable to the NGI obtained values, but there were some differences between the results obtained by these two methods. On the other hand, CFD-DPM predicted MMAD values were almost twice bigger than the NGI determined values, while the predicted GSD values were lower than NGI obtained values. In addition, CFD-DPM predicted values indicated larger differences between MMAD for different formulations in comparison to the NGI results. The largest difference between CFD-DPM and NGI results was observed for FPF values. Namely, CFD-DPM predicted FPF values were markedly lower than the NGI determined values for four of five tested formulations. Overall, although the designed CFD-DPM model and NGI measurements provided comparable data on the DPI EF values, the other relevant parameters obtained by these two approaches largely diverged indicating the need for further refinement of computational models to fully capture DPI aerodynamic performance.","PeriodicalId":9171,"journal":{"name":"Book of Proceedings: 1st International Conference on Chemo and BioInformatics,","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76033728","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Artificial Intelligence (AI) based algorithms have repeatedly been shown to be the best performing computer vision algorithms, in many fields including medicine. AI-based – or more precisely machine learning (ML) based, algorithms have capabilities which allow them to learn the patterns contained in the data from the data itself. Among the best performing algorithms are artificial neural networks (ANNs), or more precisely convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Their pitfall is the need for the large amounts of data – but as it has been previously mentioned, the amount of data collected in today’s clinical practice is large and ever increasing. This allows for the development of Smart Diagnostic systems which are meant to serve as support systems to the health professionals. In this paper first, the standard practices and review of the field is given – with the focus on challenges and best practices.

However, the applicability of oscillatory reactions in chemical computing was recently discovered. Here we intend to expose the native computing concept applied to intermittent states of the BL reaction, because we believe that this particular state may have some advantages. For this purpose, numerical simulations will be used based on the known model. Sequences of perturbations will be introduced by adding iodate (IO3-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), separately, as well as in various combinations with one another. It will be shown that dynamic states obtained after perturbations with same species depend very much on the sequence in which these species were used in perturbations. Additionally, it will be shown that obtained dynamic states shift the system from chaotic intermittent dynamic state to different complex periodic states. Hence, the applicability of the BL reaction system in chemical computing was demonstrated.","PeriodicalId":9171,"journal":{"name":"Book of Proceedings: 1st International Conference on Chemo and BioInformatics,","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76240513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is characterized by high metastatic potential and a high recurrence rate, which significantly complicates diagnosis and treatment. In order to increase the accuracy of the diagnostic procedure, algorithms based on artificial intelligence are introduced. This paper presents the principle of selection of convolutional neural network (CNN) models based on a multi-objective approach that maximizes classification and generalization performance. Model selection is performed on two standard CNN architectures, AlexNet and VGG-16. Classification performances are measured by using ROC analysis and the resulting AUC value. On the other hand, generalization performances are evaluated by using a 5-fold cross-validation procedure. By using these two metrics, a multi-objective fitness function, used in meta-heuristic algorithms, is designed. The multi-objective search was performed using a Genetic algorithm (GA) and a Discrete Particle Swarm (D-PS) algorithm. From obtained results, it can be noticed that such an approach has resulted in CNN models that are defined with high classification and generalization performances. When a GA-based approach is used, fitness values up to 0.97 are achieved. On the other hand, by using the D-PS approach, fitness values up to 0.99 are achieved pointing towards the conclusion that such an approach has provided models with higher classification and generalization performances.","PeriodicalId":9171,"journal":{"name":"Book of Proceedings: 1st International Conference on Chemo and BioInformatics,","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72817629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concentrations of analyzed major and trace elements in all water samples were below those at which toxic effects may occur. The exception was the concentrations of Fe (2.02 – 2012 mg/L), which were higher than is allowed. The origin of Fe in water is from sediment (soil and sand), which also showed high content of Fe (3006.0 mg/g and 2229.9 mg/g, respectively).
