Enhanced leukemia prediction using hybrid ant colony and ant lion optimization for gene selection and classification by Santhakumar D, Gnanajeyaraman Rajaram, Elankavi R, Viswanath J, Govindharaj I, Raja J

“…Gene selection plays a crucial role in the pre-processing of microarray data, aiming to identify a small set of genes that enhances classification accuracy and reduces costs. Traditional methods, such as Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Maximum Relevance Minimum Redundancy (MRMR), have been widely used, but bio-inspired algorithms like Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and Ant Lion Optimizer (ALO) have shown promising results. …”

Information coevolution spreading model and simulation based on self-organizing multi-agents by Guoxin Ma, Kang Tian, Hongbo Sun, Hong Zhao, Yongyan Wang

“…These complex propagation simulations reveal some interesting phenomena: (1) When counterattacking the spread of a specific source information, blindly increasing the proportion of counterattackers or the information exclusion coefficient may not necessarily be the best choice, even without considering costs. (2) In networks with long-short loop structures, compared to the situation of single information dissemination, the coevolutionary spread of two types of information is more prone to avalanche phenomena, with the S (susceptible) state of information dropping sharply from a steady state of 60% to a steady state of 20% by the 10th generation. …”

Petrophysical study of Szolnok Formation, Endrod gas field, by Abdel Moktader A. El Sayed, Hesham Abuseda, Nahla A. El Sayed

“…The relationship between helium and mercury porosity for whole studied samples and sandstone samples as well, are supported by a high correlation coefficient and allow its application for prediction of porosity while it reduces costs and time of laboratory measurements. The evaluation of different calculated equations for porosity from compressional wave velocity data of the Szolnok Formation are studied and the relationship between velocity and porosity displays a clear inverse trend. …”

Impact of an Educational Program to Reduce Healthcare Resources in Community-Acquired Pneumonia: The EDUCAP Randomized Controlled Trial. by Jordi Adamuz, Diego Viasus, Antonella Simonetti, Emilio Jiménez-Martínez, Lorena Molero, Maribel González-Samartino, Elena Castillo, María-Eulalia Juvé-Udina, María-Jesús Alcocer, Carme Hernández, María-Pilar Buera, Asunción Roel, Emilia Abad, Adelaida Zabalegui, Pilar Ricart, Anna Gonzalez, Pilar Isla, Jordi Dorca, Carolina Garcia-Vidal, Jordi Carratalà

“…<h4>Background</h4>Additional healthcare visits and rehospitalizations after discharge are frequent among patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and have a major impact on healthcare costs. We aimed to determine whether the implementation of an individualized educational program for hospitalized patients with CAP would decrease subsequent healthcare visits and readmissions within 30 days of hospital discharge.…”
