Event-based decision support algorithm for real-time flood forecasting in urban drainage systems using machine learning modelling

Urban flooding is a major problem for cities around the world, with significant socio-economic consequences. Conventional real-time flood forecasting models rely on continuous time-series data and often have limited accuracy, especially for longer lead times than 2 hrs. This study proposes a novel event-based decision support algorithm for...

Multiparametric ultrasound and machine learning for prostate cancer localization

A cost-effective, widely available, and practical diagnostic imaging tool for prostate cancer (PCa) localization is still lacking. Recently, the contrast-ultrasound dispersion imaging (CUDI) technique has been developed for PCa localization by quantifying dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (DCE-US) acquisitions. Tissue stiffness is an...

SGD_Tucker: A Novel Stochastic Optimization Strategy for Parallel Sparse Tucker Decomposition

Sparse Tucker Decomposition (STD) algorithms learn a core tensor and a group of factor matrices to obtain an optimal low-rank representation feature for the High-Order, High-Dimension, and Sparse Tensor (HOHDST). However, existing STD algorithms face the problem of intermediate variables explosion which results from the fact that the...

Corrnet: Fine-grained emotion recognition for video watching using wearable physiological sensors

Recognizing user emotions while they watch short-form videos anytime and anywhere is essential for facilitating video content customization and personalization. However, most works either classify a single emotion per video stimuli, or are restricted to static, desktop environments. To address this, we propose a correlation-based emotion...

Automatic high-resolution microseismic event detection via supervised machine learning

Microseismic methods are crucial for real-Time monitoring of the hydraulic fracturing dynamic status during the development of unconventional reservoirs. However, unlike the active-source seismic events, the microseismic events usually have low signal-To-noise ratio (SNR), which makes its data processing challenging. To overcome the noise...
