Prediction of All-Cause Mortality Based on Stress/Rest Myocardial Perfusion Imaging (MPI) Using Deep Learning: A Comparison between Image and Frequency Spectra as Input

Cardiovascular management and risk stratification of patients is an important issue in clinics. Patients who have experienced an adverse cardiac event are concerned for their future and want to know the survival probability.We trained eight state-of-the-art CNN models using polar maps of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), gender, lung/heart ratio, and patient age for 5-year survival prediction after an adverse cardiac event based on a cohort of 862 patients who had experienced adverse cardiac events and stress/rest MPIs. The CNN model outcome is to predict a patient's survival 5 years after a cardiac event, i.e., two classes, either yes or no.The best accuracy of all the CNN prediction models was 0.70 (median value), which resulted from ResNet-50V2, using image as the input in the baseline experiment. All the CNN models had better performance after using frequency spectra as the input. The accuracy increment was about 7~9%.This is the first trial to use pure rest/stress MPI polar maps and limited clinical data to predict patients' 5-year survival based on CNN models and deep learning. The study shows the feasibility of using frequency spectra rather than images, which might increase the performance of CNNs.

HPUCache: Toward High Performance and Resource Utilization in Clustered Cache via Data Copying and Instance Merging

As one of the most popular in-memory cache systems, Redis provides low-latency and high-performance data access for modern internet services. However, in large-scale Redis systems, the access skewness and locality in storage workloads induce a small number of hot-spot instances with degraded system performance and massive cold instances with low CPU utilization. This paper proposes HPUCache to address the hot-spots via data copying and cold instances via instance merging. HPUCache fully utilizes the cached mapping in Redis client, and dynamically updates this mapping to enable access to the multiple data copies. Hence it can manage multiple copies achieving both Redis client compatibility and high user access performance. It also proposes an asynchronous instance merging strategy based on disk snapshots and temporal caches, which separates the massive data movement from the critical user access path to achieve high performance instance merging. We integrate HPUCache into Redis. Experiments under two types of workloads show that, compared to the native Redis design, HPUCache achieves 2.4× and 3.5× performance gains, 2× and 6× CPU utilization gains respectively.
Multimodal Based Audio-Visual Speech Recognition for Hard-of-Hearing: State of the Art Techniques and Challenges

Multimodal Integration (MI) is the study of merging the knowledge acquired by the nervous system using sensory modalities such as speech, vision, touch, and gesture. The applications of MI expand over the areas of Audio-Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR), Sign Language Recognition (SLR), Emotion Recognition (ER), Bio Metrics Applications (BMA), Affect Recognition (AR), Multimedia Retrieval (MR), etc. The fusion of modalities such as hand gestures- facial, lip- hand position, etc., are mainly used sensory modalities for the development of hearing-impaired multimodal systems. This paper encapsulates an overview of multimodal systems available within literature towards hearing impaired studies. This paper also discusses some of the studies related to hearing-impaired acoustic analysis. It is observed that very less algorithms have been developed for hearing impaired AVSR as compared to normal hearing. Thus, the study of audio-visual based speech recognition systems for the hearing impaired is highly demanded for the people who are trying to communicate with natively speaking languages. This paper also highlights the state-of-the-art techniques in AVSR and the challenges faced by the researchers for the development of AVSR systems.

On certain trees with the same degree sequence

Let G be a simple graph and x,y,z,w be 4 vertices of G. A switch in G is the replacement of the edges {x,y} and {z,w} of G by the edges {x,z} and {y,w}, given that {x,z} and {y,w} were not present in G originally. Two simple graphs have the same degree sequence if and only if there is a sequence of switches that transforms one into another. In this paper we define the number S(G) as the number of non-isomorphic graphs that have the same degree sequence as G, in other words, that are obtained from G by switches. We also define the S(G)-switch-graph class whose elements, the S(G)-switch-graphs, are the simple graphs H with S(H)=S(G). Bounds on S(G) when G is a path with n vertices are given. The characterization of the trees that are k-switch-graphs, for 2≤k≤5, are described.

Relation between Behavioural Problems and Reading Skills in Gender Contexts: Forecasting Longitudinal Data from Kindergarten to Fifth Grade

This study investigated the association between behavioural problems and reading ability in gender contexts. Specifically, its goal is to determine to what extent of girls and boys differ in the development of reading skills and behavioural problems, and how the relationship between these variable changes based on gender perspectives. This research employed a correlational method whose purpose is to find out the relationship among multiple variables—genders, behavioural problems, and reading skills. To elicit all data of these variables, we focused on nine schools located in the capital city of West Java province, Indonesia. The participants in this research were 500 students from kindergarten to fifth grade which encompassed females (N=260) and males (N=240). The age of the participants ranges from 58 months to 11 years old and they originated from public and private schools. We used Dynamic Indicator of Basic Early Literacy (DIBELS)—which is a set of standardized and validated early literacy indicators—to measure reading skills; We employed Office Discipline Behaviour (ODB) to measure students’ destructive behaviour or behavioural problems. Findings of the research revealed that reading skills and behavioural problems were significantly different for each learning levels from kindergarten to fifth grade. In addition to correlation between behavioural problems and reading skills, we found a strong correlation for them both of boys and girls. Thus, the gender differences contributed equivalent or similar to reading skills showing this variable has lack of contribution to differences of reading skills. &#x0D; &#x0D; Received: 21 April 2022 / Accepted: 30 June 2022 / Published: 5 July 2022

<i>E<sup>3</sup> Outlier</i>: A Self-Supervised Framework for Unsupervised Deep Outlier Detection

Existing unsupervised outlier detection (OD) solutions face a grave challenge with surging visual data like images. Although deep neural networks (DNNs) prove successful for visual data, deep OD remains difficult due to OD&#x2019;s unsupervised nature. This paper proposes a novel framework named <i>E <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$^{3}$</tex-math></inline-formula> Outlier</i> that can perform <b>e</b>ffective and <b>e</b>nd-to-<b>e</b>nd deep outlier removal. Its core idea is to introduce <i>self-supervision</i> into deep OD. Specifically, our major solution is to adopt a discriminative learning paradigm that creates multiple pseudo classes from given unlabeled data by various data operations, which enables us to apply prevalent discriminative DNNs (e.g. ResNet) to the unsupervised OD problem. Then, with theoretical and empirical demonstration, we argue that inlier priority, a property that encourages DNN to prioritize inliers during self-supervised learning, makes it possible to perform end-to-end OD. Meanwhile, unlike frequently-used outlierness measures (e.g. density, proximity) in previous OD methods, we explore network uncertainty and validate it as a highly effective outlierness measure, while two practical score refinement strategies are also designed to improve OD performance. Finally, in addition to the discriminative learning paradigm above, we also explore the solutions that exploit other learning paradigms (i.e. generative learning and contrastive learning) to introduce self-supervision for <i>E <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$^{3}$</tex-math></inline-formula> Outlier</i>. Such extendibility not only brings further performance gain on relatively difficult datasets, but also enables <i>E <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$^{3}$</tex-math></inline-formula> Outlier</i> to be applied to other OD applications like video abnormal event detection. Extensive experiments demonstrate that <i>E <inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$^{3}$</tex-math></inline-formula> Outlier</i> can considerably outperform state-of-the-art counterparts by 10&#x0025;-30&#x0025; AUROC.
