A new framework for experimental design using Bayesian Evidential Learning: The case of wellhead protection area

Groundwater management practices, such as sustainable drinking water extraction or contamination protection, can have significant socioeconomic impacts. A complete uncertainty analysis should ideally be performed to anticipate all possible outcomes and assess any risk. Uncertainties arise as a result of our limited understanding of the physical processes involved, as well as a scarcity of measurement data, whether directly or indirectly related to the physical parameters of interest. In this paper, we use a small number of tracing experiments (predictor) to predict the wellhead protection area (WHPA, target), the shape and extent of which are influenced by the distribution of hydraulic conductivity (K). Our first goal is to make stochastic predictions of the WHPA within the Bayesian Evidential Learning (BEL) framework, which uses machine learning to find a direct relationship between predictor and target. This relationship is learned using a small number of training models (400) drawn from the prior distribution of K. Forward modelling is used to obtain the 400 pairs of simulated predictors and targets. Newly collected field data can then be used directly to predict the approximate posterior distribution of the corresponding WHPA, obviating the need for the traditional step of data inversion. The number and location of data sources (injection wells) influence the posterior WHPA distribution's uncertainty range. Our second goal is to extend BEL to determine the optimal design of data source locations that minimises the WHPA's posterior uncertainty. Because the BEL model, once trained, allows the computation of the posterior uncertainty corresponding to any new input data, experimental design can be done explicitly, without averaging or approximating. We estimate the WHPA's posterior uncertainty range using the Modified Hausdorff Distance (MHD) and Structural Similarity (SSIM) index metrics. Because the breakthrough curves store information on a large area of the K field surrounding the pumping well, increasing the number of injection wells reduces the derived posterior WHPA uncertainty. Our method can also estimate which injection wells are more informative than others, as demonstrated by a k-fold cross-validation procedure. Overall, the application of BEL to experimental design allows for identifying data sources that maximise the information content of any measurement data while keeping budget constraints and computational costs to a minimum.

Artificial Intelligence and Primary Care Research: A Scoping Review.

Rapid increases in technology and data motivate the application of artificial intelligence (AI) to primary care, but no comprehensive review exists to guide these efforts. Our objective was to assess the nature and extent of the body of research on AI for primary care. We performed a scoping review, searching 11 published or gray literature databases with terms pertaining to AI (eg, machine learning, bayes* network) and primary care (eg, general pract*, nurse). We performed title and abstract and then full-text screening using Covidence. Studies had to involve research, include both AI and primary care, and be published in Eng-lish. We extracted data and summarized studies by 7 attributes: purpose(s); author appointment(s); primary care function(s); intended end user(s); health condition(s); geographic location of data source; and AI subfield(s). Of 5,515 unique documents, 405 met eligibility criteria. The body of research focused on developing or modifying AI methods (66.7%) to support physician diagnostic or treatment recommendations (36.5% and 13.8%), for chronic conditions, using data from higher-income countries. Few studies (14.1%) had even a single author with a primary care appointment. The predominant AI subfields were supervised machine learning (40.0%) and expert systems (22.2%). Research on AI for primary care is at an early stage of maturity. For the field to progress, more interdisciplinary research teams with end-user engagement and evaluation studies are needed.

Adaptive Scheduling Design for Time Slotted Channel Hopping Enabled Mobile Adhoc Network

Industrial Internet of things (IIOT) applications comprises the wearable sensor devices for human activity monitoring; these devices generate the continuous data at higher data rate and it is powered through the battery. Hence, it restricts the uses of wireless protocol such as IEEE 802.15.4 and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). Moreover, there are promising technologies such as TSCH (Time Slotted Channel Hoping) MAC (Medium Access Control) which can be deployed in the different environment, which are prone to interference. In this research work we focus on overcoming the issue for designing the AS (Adaptive Scheduling) for TSCH – MANET (Mobile Adhoc Network); furthermore it is very difficult to design scheduling technique considering the unpredictable nature of data source location and wireless link, this results in waste of reserve resource. Moreover proposed Adaptive Scheduling model allows the both slots i.e. shared and dedicated slots, it also allows the communicating device to active the assigned slots adaptively. Hence, our proposed AS model achieves the higher overall access fairness, minimal idle listening overhead, higher packet deliver rate; further to cope up with the higher traffic load MANET device can activate the additional slots dynamically. Moreover, the outcome of Adaptive Scheduling model shows the higher data transmission and lower energy consumption.

MonitorApp: a web tool to analyze and visualize pollution data detected by an electronic nose

The analysis of air quality data may reveal the quality of life and can prevent dangers for the citizen health. Assuming that some chemical compounds in the air produce a bad smell, people may detect that something is going wrong acting as sensors that alerts potential risks. This work presents a visual analytics approach to support air quality experts in the analysis of data produced by electronic nose devices. The approach consists in setting workflows to manage and transform raw data offering clustering and visualization techniques to analyze such information. The analysis is supported by calendar, map and line graph visualization techniques also maneuvering the clustering attributes. The interactive map is used to show the position of monitoring stations in order to support making hypothesis related to the data source locations.

A Big Data Recommendation Engine Framework Based on Local Pattern Analytics Strategy for Mining Multi-Sourced Big Data

Organisations that perform business operations in a multi-sourced big data environment are in imperative need to discover meaningful patterns of interest from their diversified data sources. With the advent of big data technologies such as Hadoop and Spark, commodity hardwares play vital role in the task of data analytics and process the multi-sourced and multi-formatted big data in a reasonable cost and time. Though various data analytic techniques exist in the context of big data, recommendation system is more popular in web-based business applications to suggest suitable products, services, and items to potential customers. In this paper, we put forth a big data recommendation engine framework based on local pattern analytics strategy to explore user preferences and taste for both branch level and central level decisions. The framework encourages the practice of moving computing environment towards the data source location and avoids forceful integration of data. Further it assists decision makers to reap hidden preferences and taste of users from branch data sources for an effective customer campaign. The novelty of the framework has been evaluated in the benchmark dataset, MovieLens100k and results clearly confirm the advantages of the proposal.

A novel data management platform to improve image-guided precision preclinical biological research.

Preclinical biological research is mandatory for developing new drugs to investigate the toxicity and efficacy of the drug. In this paper, the focus is on radiobiological research as an example of advanced preclinical biological research. In radiobiology, recent technological advances have produced novel research platforms which can precisely irradiate targets in animals and use advanced onboard image-guidance, mimicking the clinical radiotherapy environment. These platforms greatly facilitate complex research combining several agents simultaneously (in our example, radiation and non-radiation agents). Since these modern platform can produce a large amount of wide-ranging data, one of the main impediments in preclinical research platforms is a proper data management system for preclinical studies. A preclinical data management system, inspired by current radiotherapy clinical data management systems was designed. The system was designed with InterSystems technology, i.e. a programmable Enterprise Service Bus solution. New DICOM animal imaging standards are used such as DICOM suppl. 187 for storing small animal acquisition context and the DICOM second generation course model. A small animal big data warehouse environment for research is designed to work with modern image-guided precision research platforms. Its modular design includes (1) a study workflow manager, (2) a data manager, and (3) a storage manager. The system provides interfaces to, e.g. preclinical treatment planning systems and data analysis plug-ins, and guides the user efficiently through the many steps involved in preclinical research. The system manages various data source locations, and arranges access to the data centrally. A novel preclinical data management system can be designed to improve preclinical workflow, facilitate data exchange between researchers, and support translation to clinical trials. A preclinical data management system such as the one proposed here would greatly benefit preparation, execution and analysis of biological experiments, and will eventually facilitate translation to clinical trials.

Capability-based localization of distributed and heterogeneous queries

AbstractOne key aspect of data-centric applications is the manipulation of data stored in persistent repositories, which is moving fast from querying a centralized relational database to the ad-hoc combination of constellations of data sources. The extension of general purpose languages with query operations is increasingly popular, as a tool to improve reasoning and optimizing capabilities of interpreters and compilers. However, not much is being done to integrate and orchestrate different and separate sources of data. We present a data manipulation language that abstracts the nature and location of data-sources. We define its semantics and a type directed query localization mechanism to be used in development tools for heterogeneous environments to efficiently compile them into native queries. We introduce a localization procedure based on rewriting of query expressions that is confluent, terminating and provides the maximum mapping between site capabilities and the structure of the query. We provide formal type safety results that support the sound distribution of query fragments over remote sites. Our approach is also suitable for an interactive query construction environment by rich user interfaces that provide immediate feedback on data manipulation operations. This approach is currently the base for the data layer of a development platform for mobile and web applications.

Possibilities for Named Data Networking in HEP

Named Data Networking is a novel networking architecture which places emphasis on the naming and signing of data. Once so named, the location of data sources becomes less important and the emphasis moves from host to host transfers to pulling data from the network. Furthermore data are cached en route to their destination. We believe this approach has interesting possibilities for High Energy Physics (HEP) and report on work we have done in this area including the development of a scalable repository, a ROOT plugin and a small local testbed, the submission of jobs to a grid cluster and some ideas on an authentication system for LHC VOs.

Protecting Data Source Location Privacy in Wireless Sensor Networks against a Global Eavesdropper

Data source location privacy (DSLP) is of great importance for some asset monitoring applications in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Besides the source simulation (SS) method to protect the DSLP against a global eavesdropper in WSNs, other existing methods are based on the panda-hunter game model (PHGM) without considering the communication between data sources and reporter sources, which can cause them to be ineffective. Moreover, there are two limitations in SS. First, the reporter source cannot generate effective event reports. Second, it is unsuitable to track multiobjects accurately. To address the former issue, an improved source simulation (ISS) method is proposed which adjusts the event report strategy. To solve the latter issue, an updated-panda-hunter game model (UPHGM) is proposed and a formal model of the DSLP issues is also presented. Then, based on the UPHGM, an energy-efficient grid-based pull (GBP) scheme is designed to protect the DSLP by combining a light-weight security object collection scheme with an effective grid partition method. Analysis and simulation results show that GBP outperforms SS and ISS in terms of energy cost on the whole.

An Oblivious Spanning Tree for Single-Sink Buy-at-Bulk in Low Doubling-Dimension Graphs

We consider the problem of constructing a single spanning tree for the single-sink buy-at-bulk network design problem for doubling-dimension graphs. We compute a spanning tree to route a set of demands along a graph G to or from a designated sink node. The demands could be aggregated at (or symmetrically distributed to) intermediate edges where the fusion cost is specified by a nonnegative concave function f. We describe a novel approach for developing an oblivious spanning tree in the sense that it is independent of the number and location of data sources (or demands) and cost function at the edges. We present a deterministic, polynomial-time algorithm for constructing a spanning tree in low doubling-dimension graphs that guarantees a log3 D-approximation over the optimal cost, where D is the diameter of the graph G. With a constant fusion-cost function, our spanning tree gives an O(log3 D)-approximation for every Steiner tree that includes the sink. We also provide a Ω(log n) lower bound for any oblivious tree in low doubling-dimension graphs. To our knowledge, this is the first paper to propose a single spanning tree solution to the single-sink buy-at-bulk network design problem (as opposed to multiple overlay trees).

A Late Eocene paleomagnetic pole for the Pacific plate

Seamount magnetic anomaly inversions as well as DSDP paleomagnetic and equatorial sediment facies data constrain a paleomagnetic pole for the Pacific plate of Late Eocene age. The location of the pole at 77.5°N, 21.2°E implies 12.5 ± 1.6° of apparent polar wander for the Pacific plate during the last 41 ± 5 m.y. The Late Eocene pole is significantly different from the Pacific Maastrichtian pole at the 95% confidence level and indicates 7.2° of apparent polar motion of the Pacific between 69 and 41 m.y. B.P. The data source locations for the Late Eocene pole are scattered over a large area of the North Pacific and thus the consistency of the data supports the hypothesis that the north central Pacific plate has been rigid since the Eocene. The agreement of the Late Eocene pole with the motion predicted for the Pacific from hotspot models suggests that relative motion between the spin axis and hotspots has been small since that time. Additionally, this finding dictates that the significant amounts of hotspot versus spin axis motion inferred by other authors to have occurred since the Cretaceous must have instead occurred at a faster rate and concluded before the Eocene.

The System for Information on Grey Literature in Europe (SIGLE)

For several decades much effort has been devoted to the improvement of access to scientific and technical literature. Standards and rules have been established for bibliographic descriptions, indexing and storage of documents. More and more sophisticated methods and strategies for retrieval are available to information users. Databases are implemented on telecommunication networks so that direct access to bibliographic information is now made independent of the data source location.
