AutoML e transferência de aprendizado por reforço entre problemas de otimização combinatória
Authors: Barbosa Souza Gleice Kelly , Carvalho Ottoni André Luiz
Published: January 2024

O Aprendizado por Reforço (AR) é uma das linhas do Aprendizado de Máquina e que pode ser aplicado às mais diversas situações. A Otimização Combinatória, por exemplo, é uma relevante área de aplicação do AR. Destaca-se que, na literatura recente, tem ocorrido uma alta movimentação para realizar o desenvolvimento de sistemas de AR para resolução de problemas conheci- dos de Otimização Combinatória, como o Problema do Caixeiro Viajante (PCV) e o Sequential Ordering Problem (SOP). No entanto, um desafio em aberto nessa área é a automatização da transferência de aprendizado entre o PCV e o SOP. Neste sentido, o objetivo deste trabalho foi propor um sistema de transferência de aprendizado com AutoML para otimização do SOP a partir de bases de conhecimento geradas com instancias assimétricas do PCV. Essa abordagem foi denominada de Auto TL RL. Os resultados obtidos pelo Auto TL RL mostram que, para a maioria das instâncias analisadas (aproximadamente 78%), o sistema proposto alcançou os melhores resultados em comparação aos resultados obtidos sem transferência aprendizado.

Authors: Villalobos Cristian , Mendoza Leonardo , Rocha Renato , Ruiz José Eduardo , Mello Júnior Harold , Pacheco Marco Aurélio
Published: January 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic was a global health crisis that lasted until May 4, 2023, affecting millions of people and raising many questions about transmission, diagnosis, treatment, vaccine development, and viral pathogens. Unfortunately, misinformation created more socioeconomic damage than the disease itself. To address this problem, we have developed Cognitive Search, a user-friendly application service that uses the latest advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) to retrieve information from CORD-19, a resource for scholarly articles on COVID-19 and related pathogens. This system uses a combination of Term-Frequency, Semantic Neural Research, and Hybrid Term-Neural algorithms to improve document retrieval performance. The Hybrid Term-Neural approach also considers temporal information in documents to provide more accurate search results. With an intuitive interface, this application can generate valuable insights to help combat outbreaks.
Unsupervised Time Series Novelty Detection Using Clustering-based Local Autoencoders
Authors: Albuquerque Renan , Barreto Guilherme
Published: January 2024

Novelty detection, also known as anomaly detection, plays a crucial role in identifying new or abnormal instances within a dataset. Traditional autoencoder models have been effective in learning compact representations of data, but they often struggle with capturing fine-grained local variations in complex and high-dimensional datasets. To address this limitation, we propose a novel learning method called Local Autoencoders (LAEs) for novelty detection. LAEs incorporate local information into the encoding and decoding processes, enabling more precise and detailed reconstructions. In this paper, we present preliminary results on evaluation of LAEs considering benchmark datasets for time series novelty detection and compare their performance against traditional (i.e., global) autoencoder and nearest neighbor learning method. The results demonstrate LAEs competitive performance in detecting novel instances, surpassing (in several cases) traditional autoencoders. The proposed LAEs present a promising avenue for further exploration in the field of novelty detection, leading into new opportunities for research and practical applications.
Multivariate adaptive regression splines-assisted approximate Bayesian computation for calibration of complex hydrological models
Authors: Ma Jinfeng , Li Ruonan , Zheng Hua , Li Weifeng , Rao Kaifeng , Yang Yanzheng , Wu Bo
Published: January 2024

Approximate Bayesian computation (ABC) relaxes the need to derive explicit likelihood functions required by formal Bayesian analysis. However, the high computational cost of evaluating models limits the application of Bayesian inference in hydrological modeling. In this paper, multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) are used to expedite the ABC calibration process. The MARS model is trained using 6,561 runoff simulations generated by the soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model and subsequently replaces the SWAT model to calculate the objective functions in ABC and multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA). In experiments, MARS can successfully reproduce the runoff time series simulations of the SWAT model at a low time cost, with a runoff variance determination coefficient of 0.90 as compared to the Monte Carlo method. MARS-assisted ABC can quickly and accurately estimate the parameter distributions of the SWAT model. The comparison of ABC with non-Bayesian MOEAs helps in the selection of an appropriate calibration approach.
Green synthesis and characterization of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) and composites (CuC) using the Echinochloa pyramidalis extract and their application in the remediation of PAHsin water
Authors: Akpanudo Nyeneime William , Olabemiwo Ojeyemi Matthew
Published: January 2024

In this study, we synthesized copper nanoparticles and nanocomposites (i.e. copper-based) using different parts of Echinochloa pyramidalis plant. The products were applied to remove seven types of PAHs identified in bitumen seepage water through adsorption. Phytochemical screening of the plant indicated phenol, tannin and saponins, which supported their ability to convert CuSO4·5H2SO4 to copper nanoparticles. Nanocomposites were also produced from the nanoparticles obtained from the respective parts of the plant. They were characterized using X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Brunauer -Emmett -Teller (BET), Fourier transformed infrared spectrophotometer (FTIR), ulraviolet visible spectrophotometer (UV), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). We observed pore size characteristics describing microporous and mesoporous dimensions for the nanoparticles and the corresponding composites, respectively. Based on UV-visible analysis, bandgaps ranging from 3.16 to 3.40 eV were observed for the nanoparticles. The nanoparticles from the leaf, stem and root showed average crystallite sizes of 0.1623, 0.1582 and 0.2145 nm, respectively, and showed comparative d-spacing parameters. The root-, stem- and leaf-based nanoparticles exhibited adsorption removal efficiencies ranging from 74.32 to 81.70, 74.28 to 83.45 and 76.34 to 83.98%, respectively. However, the nanocomposites of the leaf, stem and root showed better efficiencies defined by the following ranges: 79.93–83.86, 79.16–83.49 and 83.23–84.01%, respectively.
Pretreatment of hypersaline and high-organic wastewater with a three-dimensional electrocatalytic system: a pilot-scale study
Authors: Fang Chengyi , Xie Shiwei , Xiao Tian , Liu Zhi , Hong Hui , Gong Shuyi , Liu Xixiang
Published: January 2024

The three-dimensional electrocatalytic oxidation (3DEO) is a promising electrochemical system in the treatment of refractory wastewater, but still far from large-scale applications. In this work, we prepared 146.5 Kg Ti-Sn-Sb@γ-Al2O3 particle electrodes to construct a 3DEO system for the pretreatment of hypersaline and high-organic wastewater in an industrial park sewage plant, with activated carbon particle electrodes as a comparison. The average COD removal rates of Ti-Sn-Sb@γ-Al2O3 and activated carbon-based 3DEO systems were 24.43 and 48.73%, respectively, and the energy consumption of the two 3DEO systems were 102.8 and 31.4 kWh/Kg COD, respectively. However, compared to the negligible enhancement of wastewater biodegradability in the activated carbon 3DEO system, the Ti-Sn-Sb@γ-Al2O3 3DEO system greatly improved the biochemical index (B/C) from 0.021 to 0.166 (by 690.5%). Due to its superior catalytic capacity, Ti-Sn-Sb@γ-Al2O3 outperforms activated carbon in improving biodegradability as the latter relies mainly on adsorption. The results of this work provide a 3DEO engineering practice experience on the pretreatment of hypersaline and high-organic wastewater.

Advances in Aerogels Formulations for Pulmonary Targeted Delivery of
Therapeutic Agents: Safety, Efficacy and Regulatory Aspects
Authors: Verma Shristy , Sharma Pramod Kumar , Malviya Rishabha , Das Sanjita
Published: January 2024

:

Aerogels are the 3D network of organic, inorganic, composite, layered, or hybrid-type
materials that are used to increase the solubility of Class 1 (low solubility and high permeability)
and Class 4 (poor solubility and low permeability) molecules. This approach improves systemic
drug absorption due to the alveoli's broad surface area, thin epithelial layer, and high vascularization.
Local therapies are more effective and have fewer side effects than systemic distribution
because inhalation treatment targets the specific location and raises drug concentration in the
lungs.

:

The present manuscript aims to explore various aspects of aerogel formulations for pulmonary
targeted delivery of active pharmaceutical agents. The manuscript also discusses the safety, efficacy,
and regulatory aspects of aerogel formulations. According to projections, the global respiratory
drug market is growing 4–6% annually, with short–term development potential. The proliferation
of literature on pulmonary medicine delivery, especially in recent years, shows increased
interest.

:

Aerogels come in various technologies and compositions, but any aerogel used in a biological
system must be constructed of a material that is biocompatible and, ideally, biodegradable. Aerogels
are made via "supercritical processing". After many liquid phase iterations using organic
solvents, supercritical extraction, and drying are performed. Moreover, the sol-gel polymerization
process makes inorganic aerogels from TMOS or TEOS, the less hazardous silane. The resulting
aerogels were shown to be mostly loaded with pharmaceutically active chemicals, such as
furosemide-sodium, penbutolol-hemisulfate, and methylprednisolone. For biotechnology, pharmaceutical
sciences, biosensors, and diagnostics, these aerogels have mostly been researched.
Although aerogels are made of many different materials and methods, any aerogel utilized in a
biological system needs to be made of a substance that is both biocompatible and, preferably,
biodegradable.

:

In conclusion, aerogel-based pulmonary drug delivery systems can be used in biomedicine and
non-biomedicine applications for improved sustainability, mechanical properties, biodegradability,
and biocompatibility. This covers scaffolds, aerogels, and nanoparticles. Furthermore, biopolymers
have been described, including cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and MXenes. A safety
regulatory database is necessary to offer direction on the commercialization potential of aerogelbased
formulations. After that, enormous efforts are discovered to be performed to synthesize an
effective aerogel, particularly to shorten the drying period, which ultimately modifies the efficacy.
As a result, there is an urgent need to enhance the performance going forward.
Submaximal Field Walking Tests Applied in the Cardiopulmonary Assessment in Congenital Heart Diseases: A Systematic Review
Authors: da Silva Amanda , Puel Alexia Nadine , Moretto Priscilla , Gonzáles Ana Inês , Sonza Anelise
Published: January 2024

Introduction:

Submaximal field walking tests are easy to apply and low cost, but it is
necessary to standardize their application, especially in the pediatric population. The feasibility
and its use in patients with congenital heart disease have been studied. The goal of this study was
to verify which are the submaximal field walking tests applied in the cardiopulmonary assessment
of children and adolescents with CHD and to verify if they are being performed as recommended
by the standardization protocols/guidelines.

Methods:

Literature review through a search in six electronic databases, structured in PICO format,
without date restrictions. Looking for studies that used submaximal field walking tests in children
and adolescents with congenital heart disease aged 5 to 18 years. Methodological quality, effectiveness
and safety and risk of bias were assessed.

Results:

Five studies met the eligibility criteria with a sample of 160 individuals with congenital
heart disease, and all used the six-minute walk test. Note that different methodologies and modifications
are used. Only the clinical trial showed good methodological quality.Four studies had low
risk of bias and one study had moderate risk.

Conclusion:

Although the six-minute walk test is the only test used as a field test found in our research,
there is no standardization in the application of the test, making it difficult to compare the
results. In this sense, reducing the limitations and heterogeneity in the application of the test will
enable more concrete outcomes and facilitate their reproduction in clinical practice.
Antidepressant-induced Paradoxical Anxiety, Akathisia, and Complex
Vocal Tics in a Patient with Panic Disorder and Crohn’s Disease: A Case
Report
Authors: HK Koh Azriel , Loh Soon Shan , Lim Leslie
Published: January 2024

Background:

Antidepressant-induced paradoxical anxiety is a fairly common phenomenon
seen in patients who are initiated on antidepressants. However, akathisia is a very uncommon
manifestation of antidepressants. Much more rarely, antidepressants are also associated
with the emergence of motor and vocal tics. This case adds to the growing literature of rare adverse
events induced by antidepressants and aims to stimulate future research into the mechanism
and risk factors of this phenomenon.

Case Presentation:

In this case report, we describe a patient with panic disorder and co-morbid
Crohn’s disease who developed worsening anxiety, akathisia and vocal tics upon initiation of
fluvoxamine. This is the first case report to describe the emergence of both akathisia and vocal
tics in the same patient following antidepressant initiation. After discontinuation of fluvoxamine,
the patient’s symptoms resolved.

Conclusion:

Antidepressant-induced akathisia and tics are often distressing both to the patient
and their loved ones, and they can be very puzzling to the clinician. It is important for clinicians
to recognise that, although rare, antidepressants can have the adverse effects of akathisia and tics
in patients. When these symptoms arise, it should prompt immediate discontinuation of the offending
antidepressant.
Targeting the Key Signaling Pathways in Breast Cancer: From Molecular
Mechanism to Therapeutic Interventions
Authors: Singh Deepika , Sahoo Ankit
Published: January 2024

Breast cancer is a public health issue in developing and developed countries. Nowadays, the concept of BCSC (breast cancer stem cell) is gaining popularity among oncology researchers. The breast cancer stem cell is a tiny cell fraction inside the tumor mass that shows
features that look like stem cells that are implicated in the genesis, recurrence, and metastasis of
breast cancer tumors. Extracellular cues, mutations, and epigenetic control all contribute to the
intricacy of gene expression control in Breast cancer stem cells. Thus, signaling pathways identified in breast cancer are Hedgehog and NOTCH, signal transducer and transcription 3, wingless-type MMTV integration site family (Wnt)/-catenin, and nuclear factor-kappa B, particularly
connected with a phenotype of stem cell. Furthermore, the tumor microenvironment, such as
hypoxic regions, can impact these BCSCs. Various approved signaling pathway targeted molecules have been patented, which show protective effects against breast cancer and have been
used in clinical uses. PARP inhibitors are found to be very useful in the treatment of breast cancer. Promoting studies on the molecular pathways underlying the development of cancer in
breast cancer patients was one of the main objectives of this study topic. The objective of this
review Topic was to discover new intrinsic and extrinsic molecular pathways. Research focusing on novel signaling pathways that may lead to novel treatments or identifying patients at-risk
of not responding to standard therapy approaches were the areas of focus we highlighted. The
paper covers the linkage between breast cancer stem cells and cellular signaling, the tumor microenvironment in BC, and the relevance of signaling pathways and their therapeutic interventions. The review also covered patent applications associated with these signaling pathways and
their prospects.
Effective Hybrid Deep Learning Model of GAN and LSTM for Clustering
and Data Aggregation in Wireless Sensor Networks
Authors: Hemalatha K. , Amanullah M.
Published: January 2024

Background:

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have emerged as a crucial technology
for various applications, but they face a lot of challenges relevant to limited energy resources, delayed
communications, and complex data aggregation. To address these issues, this study proposes
novel approaches called GAN-based Clustering and LSTM-based Data Aggregation (GCLD) that
aim to enhance the performance of WSNs.

Methods:

The proposed GCLD method enhances the Quality of Service (QoS) of WSN by leveraging
the capabilities of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and the Long Short-Term Memory
(LSTM) method. GANs are employed for clustering, where the generator assigns cluster assignments
or centroids, and the discriminator distinguishes between real and generated cluster assignments.
This adversarial learning process refines the clustering results. Subsequently, LSTM networks are
used for data aggregation, capturing temporal dependencies and enabling accurate predictions.

Results:

The evaluation results demonstrate the superior performance of GCLD in terms of delay,
PDR, energy consumption, and accuracy than the existing methods.

Conclusion:

Overall, the significance of GCLD in advancing WSNs highlights its potential impact
on various applications.

Interpretaciones y usos de la belleza del abandono en la arquitectura urbana- un análisis crítico en el caso de Oporto
Authors: Klein Ricardo
Published: January 2024

By way of an essay, we propose to analyse the city of Porto through the application of a neologism related to urban architecture: the beauty of aban-donment. This concept refers to the use of aes-thetic decay as a tool to highlight public space and create an evocative urban landscape. However, the tourist attraction generated by this aesthetic poses challenges in cities such as Porto, as the valorisa-tion of abandoned infrastructures attracts tourist and commercial investments, which paradoxically leads to their rehabilitation. The phenomenon of the beauty of abandonment has different interpre-tations and uses in different cities. Some use it as a resource to enhance public space and give value to the urban context, while others see it as part of a public policy of detachment. In the case of Porto, visual collapse is part of everyday life and becomes a tourist attraction, but the city is also undergoing a process of recovering some of the beauty of abandonment. This involves the activa-tion of its economic value and real estate specu-lation. However, this process of recovery and val-orisation entails the gentrification of the city and affects both the most connected areas and Porto as a whole.

The text briefly presents the principles, dynamics and protocol of the biographical workshops, high-lighting the potential of the method in the fields of research, training and potentially for civic action. It quotes excerpts from testimonies authorized by participants of the two workshops held at the Institute of Sociology at Porto University in Octo-ber 2022 illustrating the effects resulting from the experience of participating in these two working groups. We place the pertinence of the method in an interdisciplinary field, affiliated with qualita-tive sociology, North American anthropology, and the stream of life stories in education, in which the author was trained. This framework in dialogue with the reflections of the participants makes it possible to specifically analyze the experience in group of the collective dimensions of biographi-cal work. Consequently, it also enables the iden-tification of the mechanisms facilitating a sense of belonging in academic and scientific contexts marked by precariousness. The article illustrates the theoretical-practical coherence of this method enhances for training and exercise within the social sciences and humanities.
Politização de mães e impactos da financeirização na organização da vida no Brasil de 2016 a 2019
Authors: Azevedo Gabriela
Published: January 2024

Using a theoretical framework based on Social Reproduction Theory (Bhattacharya, 2017; Fer-guson, 2020; Vogel, 2013), this article analyses Brazilian feminist social movements of mothers from 2016 to 2019 with a case study to explore the social impacts of financial mediations to access education, pensions and health within families. It starts from Lapavitsas’ (2013) definition of finan-cialisation, which explains it as a complex process observed in different ways in different spaces in contemporary times and which involves an increase in the projection of financial capital with an impact on daily life. Given this situation, ques-tions arise about the impact of financial media-tion on access to basic goods and services in the current organisation of social reproduction: What are the impacts of the disengagement of the State on social reproduction? What are the changes in mothers’ lives and how do they influence their political mobilisation? To answer these questions, the research is conducted by combining the the-oretical framework with the methodological pro-posal of militant research (Bringel & Varella, 2016) in an analysis of both the interviews conducted with members of the Movimento Mães e Crias na Luta and the state of the art. The main results show an increase in the workload of mothers, who have to take on tasks that were previously shared with the state and perform paid labour to maintain the family’s subsistence. This situation both takes time away from women’s political activism and pushes them to press collectively for change. Thus, it was observed that the political mobilisation of the studied movement is seen as fundamental by its members, which is why they are willing to do it, even if they are exhausted.
