Predictive Models based on Deep Learning Algorithms for Tensile Deformation of AlCoCuCrFeNi High-entropy alloy

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) stand out between multi-component alloys due to their attractive microstructures and mechanical properties. In this investigation, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and machine learning were used to ascertain the deformation mechanism of AlCoCuCrFeNi HEAs under the influence of temperature, strain rate, and grain sizes. First, the MD simulation shows that the yield stress decreases significantly as the strain and temperature increase. In other cases, changes in strain rate and grain size have less effect on mechanical properties than changes in strain and temperature. The alloys exhibited superplastic behavior under all test conditions. The deformity mechanism discloses that strain and temperature are the main sources of beginning strain, and the shear bands move along the uniaxial tensile axis inside the workpiece. Furthermore, the fast phase shift of inclusion under mild strain indicates the relative instability of the inclusion phase of HCP. Ultimately, the dislocation evolution mechanism shows that the dislocations are transported to free surfaces under increased strain when they nucleate around the grain boundary. Surprisingly, the ML prediction results also confirm the same characteristics as those confirmed from the MD simulation. Hence, the combination of MD and ML reinforces the confidence in the findings of mechanical characteristics of HEA. Consequently, this combination fills the gaps between MD and ML, which can significantly save time human power and cost to conduct real experiments for testing HEA deformation in practice.

Adaptation of Autoencoder for Sparsity Reduction From Clinical Notes Representation Learning

When dealing with clinical text classification on a small dataset recent studies have confirmed that a well-tuned multilayer perceptron outperforms other generative classifiers, including deep learning ones. To increase the performance of the neural network classifier, feature selection for the learning representation can effectively be used. However, most feature selection methods only estimate the degree of linear dependency between variables and select the best features based on univariate statistical tests. Furthermore, the sparsity of the feature space involved in the learning representation is ignored. Goal: Our aim is therefore to access an alternative approach to tackle the sparsity by compressing the clinical representation feature space, where limited French clinical notes can also be dealt with effectively. Methods: This study proposed an autoencoder learning algorithm to take advantage of sparsity reduction in clinical note representation. The motivation was to determine how to compress sparse, high-dimensional data by reducing the dimension of the clinical note representation feature space. The classification performance of the classifiers was then evaluated in the trained and compressed feature space. Results: The proposed approach provided overall performance gains of up to 3% for each evaluation. Finally, the classifier achieved a 92% accuracy, 91% recall, 91% precision, and 91% f1-score in detecting the patient's condition. Furthermore, the compression working mechanism and the autoencoder prediction process were demonstrated by applying the theoretic information bottleneck framework.

Detecting of a Patient's Condition From Clinical Narratives Using Natural Language Representation

The rapid progress in clinical data management systems and artificial intelligence approaches enable the era of personalized medicine. Intensive care units (ICUs) are the ideal clinical research environment for such development because they collect many clinical data and are highly computerized environments. We designed a retrospective clinical study on a prospective ICU database using clinical natural language to help in the early diagnosis of heart failure in critically ill children. The methodology consisted of empirical experiments of a learning algorithm to learn the hidden interpretation and presentation of the French clinical note data. This study included 1386 patients' clinical notes with 5444 single lines of notes. There were 1941 positive cases (36 % of total) and 3503 negative cases classified by two independent physicians using a standardized approach. The multilayer perceptron neural network outperforms other discriminative and generative classifiers. Consequently, the proposed framework yields an overall classification performance with 89 % accuracy, 88 % recall, and 89 % precision. This study successfully applied learning representation and machine learning algorithms to detect heart failure from clinical natural language in a single French institution. Further work is needed to use the same methodology in other institutions and other languages.

Machine Learning Based on Natural Language Processing to Detect Cardiac Failure in Clinical Narratives

The purpose of the study presented herein is to develop a machine learning algorithm based on natural language processing that automatically detects whether a patient has a cardiac failure or a healthy condition by using physician notes in Research Data Warehouse at CHU Sainte Justine Hospital. First, a word representation learning technique was employed by using bag-of-word (BoW), term frequency inverse document frequency (TFIDF), and neural word embeddings (word2vec). Each representation technique aims to retain the words semantic and syntactic analysis in critical care data. It helps to enrich the mutual information for the word representation and leads to an advantage for further appropriate analysis steps. Second, a machine learning classifier was used to detect the patients condition for either cardiac failure or stable patient through the created word representation vector space from the previous step. This machine learning approach is based on a supervised binary classification algorithm, including logistic regression (LR), Gaussian Naive-Bayes (GaussianNB), and multilayer perceptron neural network (MLPNN). Technically, it mainly optimizes the empirical loss during training the classifiers. As a result, an automatic learning algorithm would be accomplished to draw a high classification performance, including accuracy (acc), precision (pre), recall (rec), and F1 score (f1). The results show that the combination of TFIDF and MLPNN always outperformed other combinations with all overall performance. In the case without any feature selection, the proposed framework yielded an overall classification performance with acc, pre, rec, and f1 of 84% and 82%, 85%, and 83%, respectively. Significantly, if the feature selection was well applied, the overall performance would finally improve up to 4% for each evaluation.

Reproducing AmbientGAN: Generative models from lossy measurements

In recent years, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have shown substantial progress in modeling complex distributions of data. These networks have received tremendous attention since they can generate implicit probabilistic models that produce realistic data using a stochastic procedure. While such models have proven highly effective in diverse scenarios, they require a large set of fully-observed training samples. In many applications access to such samples are difficult or even impractical and only noisy or partial observations of the desired distribution is available. Recent research has tried to address the problem of incompletely observed samples to recover the distribution of the data. \citep{zhu2017unpaired} and \citep{yeh2016semantic} proposed methods to solve ill-posed inverse problem using cycle-consistency and latent-space mappings in adversarial networks, respectively. \citep{bora2017compressed} and \citep{kabkab2018task} have applied similar adversarial approaches to the problem of compressed sensing. In this work, we focus on a new variant of GAN models called AmbientGAN, which incorporates a measurement process (e.g. adding noise, data removal and projection) into the GAN training. While in the standard GAN, the discriminator distinguishes a generated image from a real image, in AmbientGAN model the discriminator has to separate a real measurement from a simulated measurement of a generated image. The results shown by \citep{bora2018ambientgan} are quite promising for the problem of incomplete data, and have potentially important implications for generative approaches to compressed sensing and ill-posed problems.
