A Comparative Study of Machine Learning Methods for Baby Cry Detection Using MFCC Features

The vocalization of infants, commonly known as baby crying, represents one of the primary means by which infants effectively communicate their needs and emotional states to adults. While the act of crying can yield crucial insights into the well-being and comfort of a baby, there exists a dearth of research specifically investigating the influence of the audio range within a baby cry on research outcomes. The core problem of research is the lack of research on the influence of audio range on baby cry classification on machine learning. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the impact of the duration of an infant’s cry on the outcomes of machine learning classification and to gain knowledge regarding the accuracy of results F1 score obtained through the utilization of the machine learning method. The contribution is to enrich an understanding of the application of classification and feature selection in audio datasets, particulary in the context of baby cry audio. The utilized dataset, known as donate-a-cry-corpus, encompasses five distinct data classes and possesses a duration of seven seconds. The employed methodology consists of the spectrogram technique, cross-validation for data partitioning, MFCC feature extraction with 10, 20, and 30 coefficients, as well as machine learning models including Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, and Naïve Bayes. The findings of this study reveal that the Random Forest model achieved an accuracy of 0.844 and an F1 score of 0.773 when 10 MFCC coefficients were utilized and the optimal audio range was set at six seconds. Furthermore, the Support Vector Machine model with an RBF kernel yielded an accuracy of 0.836 and an F1 score of 0.761, while the Naïve Bayes model achieved an accuracy 0.538 and F1 score of 0.539. Notably, no discernible differences were observed when evaluating the Support Vector Machine and Naïve Bayes methods across the 1-7 second time trial. The implication of this research is to establish a foundation for the advancement of premature illness identification techniques grounded in the vocalizations of infants, thereby facilitating swifter diagnostic processes for pediatric practitioners.

Prognostic value of clinical and microbiological parameters in COVID-19: the COMEPA study

Purpose. Clusters’ analysis may indicate distinct phenotypes and symptom profiles potentially due to differing pathophysiology and needing different clinical approaches in COVID-19. However, the research about clusters combining clinical and microbiological information is still limited. The purpose of our study was to examine the prognostic role of clusters, including clinical and microbiological parameters in terms of severity of lung involvement, in-hospital mortality, and the occurrence of long COVID. Methods. Information regarding COVID-19, mortality, severity of lung involvement derived from medical records; long COVID symptomatology was ascertained using phone calls. A k-means clustering method was considered to partition data into clusters considering typical symptoms of COVID-19 present at hospital admission and SarsCov2 variants. Results. Our analysis identified among 414 patients (mean age: 65 years; males: 59.9%) four different clusters. Cluster 1: higher prevalence of respiratory COVID symptoms at hospital admission; Cluster 2: higher frequency of non-respiratory COVID symptoms and a higher prevalence of the Alpha variant; Cluster 3: older subjects and more frequently men, reporting more severe medical conditions and with a higher prevalence of Wild type variant; Cluster 4: patients that more often reported general and gastrointestinal COVID symptoms at the admission. From a prognostic point of view, patients in cluster 3 more frequently died and were admitted in a nursing home, with significantly lower presence of long COVID symptomatology. Conclusions. Clusters combining clinical and microbiological information in individuals hospitalized with COVID-19 that had different not only different profiles, but also different prognostic values, also in terms of long COVID.

Hapsolutely: a user-friendly tool integrating haplotype phasing, network construction, and haploweb calculation.

Haplotype networks are a routine approach to visualize relationships among alleles. Such visual analysis of single-locus data is still of importance, especially in species diagnosis and delimitation, where a limited amount of sequence data usually are available and sufficient, along with other datasets in the framework of integrative taxonomy. In diploid organisms, this often requires separating (phasing) sequences with heterozygotic positions, and typically separate programs are required for phasing, reformatting of input files, and haplotype network construction. We therefore developed Hapsolutely, a user-friendly program with an ergonomic graphical user interface that integrates haplotype phasing from single-locus sequences with five approaches for network/genealogy reconstruction. Among the novel options implemented, Hapsolutely integrates phasing and graphical reconstruction steps of haplotype networks, supports input of species partition data in the common SPART and SPART-XML formats, and calculates and visualizes haplowebs and fields for recombination, thus allowing graphical comparison of allele distribution and allele sharing among subsets for the purpose of species delimitation. The new tool has been specifically developed with a focus on the workflow in alpha-taxonomy, where exploring fields for recombination across alternative species partitions may help species delimitation. Hapsolutely is written in Python, and integrates code from Phase, SeqPHASE, and PopART in C++ and Haxe. Compiled stand-alone executables for MS Windows and Mac OS along with a detailed manual can be downloaded from https://www.itaxotools.org; the source code is openly available on GitHub (https://github.com/iTaxoTools/Hapsolutely).

A Study of Federated Learning with Internet of Things for Data Privacy and Security using Privacy Preserving Techniques

Abstract: Privacy leakage that occurs when many IoT devices are utilized for training centralized models, a new distributed learning framework known as federated learning was created, where devices train models together while keeping their private datasets local. In a federated learning setup, a central aggregator coordinates the efforts of several clients working together to solve machine learning issues. The privacy of each device's data is protected by this setup's decentralized training data. Federated learning reduces traditional centralized machine learning systems' systemic privacy issues and costs by emphasizing local processing and model transfer. Client information is stored locally and cannot be copied or shared. By utilizing a centralized server, federated learning enables each participant's device to collect data locally for training purposes before sending the resulting model to the server for aggregate and subsequent distribution. As a means of providing a comprehensive review and encouraging further research into the topic, we introduce the works of federated learning from five different vantage points: data partitioning, privacy method, machine learning model, communication architecture, and systems heterogeneity. Then, we organize the issues plaguing federated learning today and the potential avenues for a prospective study. Finally, we provide a brief overview of the features of existing federated knowledge and discuss how it is currently being used in the field.

Communication-Efficient Hybrid Federated Learning for E-Health With Horizontal and Vertical Data Partitioning.

Electronic healthcare (e-health) allows smart devices and medical institutions to collaboratively collect patients' data, which is trained by artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to help doctors make diagnosis. By allowing multiple devices to train models collaboratively, federated learning is a promising solution to address the communication and privacy issues in e-health. However, applying federated learning in e-health faces many challenges. First, medical data are both horizontally and vertically partitioned. Since single horizontal federated learning (HFL) or vertical federated learning (VFL) techniques cannot deal with both types of data partitioning, directly applying them may consume excessive communication cost due to transmitting a part of raw data when requiring high modeling accuracy. Second, a naive combination of HFL and VFL has limitations including low training efficiency, unsound convergence analysis, and lack of parameter tuning strategies. In this article, we provide a thorough study on an effective integration of HFL and VFL, to achieve communication efficiency and overcome the above limitations when data are both horizontally and vertically partitioned. Specifically, we propose a hybrid federated learning framework with one intermediate result exchange and two aggregation phases. Based on this framework, we develop a hybrid stochastic gradient descent (HSGD) algorithm to train models. Then, we theoretically analyze the convergence upper bound of the proposed algorithm. Using the convergence results, we design adaptive strategies to adjust the training parameters and shrink the size of transmitted data. The experimental results validate that the proposed HSGD algorithm can achieve the desired accuracy while reducing communication cost, and they also verify the effectiveness of the adaptive strategies.

Limited capability of MRI radiomics to predict primary tumor histology of brain metastases in external validation.

Growing research demonstrates the ability to predict histology or genetic information of various malignancies using radiomic features extracted from imaging data. This study aimed to investigate MRI-based radiomics in predicting the primary tumor of brain metastases through internal and external validation, using oversampling techniques to address the class imbalance. This IRB-approved retrospective multicenter study included brain metastases from lung cancer, melanoma, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, and a combined heterogenous group of other primary entities (5-class classification). Local data were acquired between 2003 and 2021 from 231 patients (545 metastases). External validation was performed with 82 patients (280 metastases) and 258 patients (809 metastases) from the publicly available Stanford BrainMetShare and the University of California San Francisco Brain Metastases Stereotactic Radiosurgery datasets, respectively. Preprocessing included brain extraction, bias correction, coregistration, intensity normalization, and semi-manual binary tumor segmentation. Two-thousand five hundred and twenty-eight radiomic features were extracted from T1w (± contrast), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR), and wavelet transforms for each sequence (8 decompositions). Random forest classifiers were trained with selected features on original and oversampled data (5-fold cross-validation) and evaluated on internal/external holdout test sets using accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, and area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC). Oversampling did not improve the overall unsatisfactory performance on the internal and external test sets. Incorrect data partitioning (oversampling before train/validation/test split) leads to a massive overestimation of model performance. Radiomics models' capability to predict histologic or genomic data from imaging should be critically assessed; external validation is essential.

XGNN: Boosting Multi-GPU GNN Training via Global GNN Memory Store

GPUs are commonly utilized to accelerate GNN training, particularly on a multi-GPU server with high-speed interconnects (e.g., NVLink and NVSwitch). However, the rapidly increasing scale of graphs poses a challenge to applying GNN to real-world applications, due to limited GPU memory. This paper presents XGNN, a multi-GPU GNN training system that fully utilizes system memory (e.g., GPU and host memory), as well as high-speed interconnects. The core design of XGNN is the Global GNN Memory Store (GGMS), which abstracts underlying resources to provide a unified memory store for GNN training. It partitions hybrid input data, including graph topological and feature data, across both GPU and host memory. GGMS also provides easy-to-use APIs for GNN applications to access data transparently, forwarding data access requests to the actual physical data partitions automatically. Evaluation on various multi-GPU platforms using three common GNN models with four large-scale datasets shows that XGNN outperforms DGL, Quiver and DGL+C by up to 7.9X (from 2.3X), 15.7X (from 3.3X) and 2.8X (from 1.3X), respectively.

Secure and Efficient Federated Learning Against Model Poisoning Attacks in Horizontal and Vertical Data Partitioning.

In distributed systems, data may partially overlap in sample and feature spaces, that is, horizontal and vertical data partitioning. By combining horizontal and vertical federated learning (FL), hybrid FL emerges as a promising solution to simultaneously deal with data overlapping in both sample and feature spaces. Due to its decentralized nature, hybrid FL is vulnerable to model poisoning attacks, where malicious devices corrupt the global model by sending crafted model updates to the server. Existing work usually analyzes the statistical characteristics of all updates to resist model poisoning attacks. However, training local models in hybrid FL requires additional communication and computation steps, increasing the detection cost. In addition, due to data diversity in hybrid FL, solutions based on the assumption that malicious models are distinct from honest models may incorrectly classify honest ones as malicious, resulting in low accuracy. To this end, we propose a secure and efficient hybrid FL against model poisoning attacks. Specifically, we first identify two attacks to define how attackers manipulate local models in a harmful yet covert way. Then, we analyze the execution time and energy consumption in hybrid FL. Based on the analysis, we formulate an optimization problem to minimize training costs while guaranteeing accuracy considering the effect of attacks. To solve the formulated problem, we transform it into a Markov decision process and model it as a multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL) problem. Then, we propose a malicious device detection (MDD) method based on MARL to select honest devices to participate in training and improve efficiency. In addition, we propose an alternative poisoned model detection (PMD) method considering model change consistency. This method aims to prevent poisoned models from being used in the model aggregation. Experimental results validate that under the random local model poisoning attack, the proposed MDD method can save over 50% training costs while guaranteeing accuracy. When facing the advanced adaptive local model poisoning (ALMP) attack, utilizing both the proposed MDD and PMD methods achieves the desired accuracy while reducing execution time and energy consumption.

ADPTD: Adaptive Data Partition With Unbiased Task Dispatching for Video Analytics at the Edge

Horizontal Federated Density Peaks Clustering.

Density peaks clustering (DPC) is a popular clustering algorithm, which has been studied and favored by many scholars because of its simplicity, fewer parameters, and no iteration. However, in previous improvements of DPC, the issue of privacy data leakage was not considered, and the "Domino" effect caused by the misallocation of noncenters has not been effectively addressed. In view of the above shortcomings, a horizontal federated DPC (HFDPC) is proposed. First, HFDPC introduces the idea of horizontal federated learning and proposes a protection mechanism for client parameter transmission. Second, DPC is improved by using similar density chain (SDC) to alleviate the "Domino" effect caused by multiple local peaks in the flow pattern dataset. Finally, a novel data dimension reduction and image encryption are used to improve the effectiveness of data partitioning. The experimental results show that compared with DPC and some of its improvements, HFDPC has a certain degree of improvement in accuracy and speed.

Transcriptomics data were collected and labeled on P. gingivalis protein-coding mRNA sequence and pseudogene, lincRNA, and bidirectional promoter lincRNA. Orange, a machine learning tool, analyzed and predicted data after preprocessing. Naïve Bayes, neural networks, and gradient descent partition data into training and testing sets, yielding accurate results. Cross-validation, model accuracy, and ROC curve were evaluated after model validation. Three models, Neural Networks, Naive Bayes, and Gradient Boosting, were evaluated using metrics like Area Under the Curve (AUC), Classification Accuracy (CA), F1 Score, Precision, Recall, and Specificity. Gradient Boosting achieved a balanced performance (AUC: 0.72, CA: 0.41, F1: 0.32) compared to Neural Networks (AUC: 0.721, CA: 0.391, F1: 0.314) and Naive Bayes (AUC: 0.701, CA: 0.172, F1: 0.114). While statistical tests revealed no significant differences between the models, Gradient Boosting exhibited a more balanced precision-recall relationship. In silico analysis using machine learning techniques successfully predicted protein-coding mRNA sequences within Porphyromonas gingivalis OMVs. Gradient Boosting outperformed other models (Neural Networks, Naive Bayes) by achieving a balanced performance across metrics like AUC, classification accuracy, and precision-recall, suggests its potential as a reliable tool for protein-coding mRNA prediction in P. gingivalis OMVs.

Fuzzy C Means Clustering Coupled with Firefly Optimization Algorithm for the Segmentation of Neurodisorder Magnetic Resonance Images

Medical image segmentation is a critical task in medical image analysis, and clustering algorithms can be utilized to achieve this goal. This research work focuses on the segmentation of neuro disorder magnetic resonance images using Otsu, K-means, and FCM coupled with the firefly optimization algorithm. Otsu is a classical thresholding algorithm that relies on a single threshold value to segment the images. K-Means is one of the simplest and most widely used clustering algorithms. It aims to partition data into K clusters, where each data point belongs to the cluster with the nearest mean. Fuzzy C-Means is an extension of K-Means, allowing data points to belong to multiple clusters with varying degrees of membership. In medical image segmentation, FCM was used to classify pixels or voxels into different tissue classes with soft boundaries, accounting for partial volume effects. Firefly Optimization helps in improving the convergence speed of the FCM algorithm. Firefly optimization is good at exploring the solution space and finding global optima. The combination of FCM and Firefly Optimization leads to more accurate clustering results. The performance evaluation was done by Renyi entropy and Shannon entropy, FCM coupled with the firefly optimization was found to exhibit superior results when compared with the Otsu and K-means clustering algorithms.
