Research on the driver fatigue early warning model of electric vehicles based on the fusion of EMG and ECG signals

Electric vehicles have been rapidly developing worldwide due to the use of new energy.However,at the same time,serious traffic accidents caused by driver fatigue in emergency situations have also drawn widespread attention.The lack of datasets in real vehicle test environments has always been a bottleneck in the research of driver fatigue in electric vehicles.Therefore,this study establishes a dataset from real vehicle test,applies the Bayesian optimization support vector machine(BOA-SVM)algorithm to take features of electromyography(EMG)and electrocardiography(ECG)signals as input and develop an early warning model for driving fatigue detection.Firstly,the driver’s EMG and ECG signals are collected through real vehicle testing experiments and then combined with the driver’s subjective fatigue evaluation scores to establish the dataset.Secondly,the study establishes a driver fatigue early warning model for emergency situations.Time-domain and frequency-domain features are extracted from the EMG signals.Principal component analysis(PCA)is applied for dimensionality reduction of these features.The experimental results show that based on the input of dimensionality reduced EMG features and ECG features,the BOA-SVM algorithm achieved an accuracy of 94.4%in classification.

Early warning model for slope debris flow initiation

Early warning model of debris flow is important for providing local residents with reliable and accurate warning information to escape from debris flow hazards. This research studied the debris flow initiation in the Yindongzi gully in Dujiangyan City, Sichuan province, China with scaled-down model experiments. We set rainfall intensity and slope angle as dominating parameters and carried out 20 scaled-down model tests under artificial rainfall conditions. The experiments set four slope angles(32°, 34°, 37°, 42°) and five rainfall intensities(60 mm/h, 90 mm/h, 120 mm/h, 150 mm/h, and 180 mm/h) treatments. The characteristic variables in the experiments, such as, rainfall duration, pore water pressure, moisture content, surface inclination, and volume were monitored. The experimental results revealed the failure mode of loose slope material and the process of slope debris flow initiation, as well as the relationship between the surface deformation and the physical parameters of experimental model. A traditional rainfall intensity-duration early warning model(I-D model) was firstly established by using a mathematical regression analysis, and it was then improved into ISD model and ISM model(Here, I is rainfall Intensity, S is Slope angle, D is rainfall Duration, and M is Moisture content). The warning model can provide reliable early warning of slope debris flow initiation.

Construction of multi-factor identification model for real-time monitoring and early warning of mine water inrush

As a new technical means that can detect abnormal signs of water inrush in advance and give an early warning,the automatic monitoring and early warning of water inrush in mines has been widely valued in recent years.Due to the many factors affecting water inrush and the complicated water inrush mechanism,many factors close to water inrush may have precursory abnormal changes.At present,the existing monitoring and early warning system mainly uses a few monitoring indicators such as groundwater level,water influx,and temperature,and performs water inrush early warning through the abnormal change of a single factor.However,there are relatively few multi-factor comprehensive early warning identification models.Based on the analysis of the abnormal changes of precursor factors in multiple water inrush cases,11 measurable and effective indicators including groundwater flow field,hydrochemical field and temperature field are proposed.Finally,taking Hengyuan coal mine as an example,6 indicators with long-term monitoring data sequences were selected to establish a single-index hierarchical early-warning recognition model,a multi-factor linear recognition model,and a comprehensive intelligent early-warning recognition model.The results show that the correct rate of early warning can reach 95.2%.

A Novel Early Warning Model for Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease Prediction Based on a Graph Convolutional Network

Objectives Hand,foot and mouth disease(HFMD)is a widespread infectious disease that causes a significant disease burden on society.To achieve early intervention and to prevent outbreaks of disease,we propose a novel warning model that can accurately predict the incidence of HFMD.Methods We propose a spatial-temporal graph convolutional network(STGCN)that combines spatial factors for surrounding cities with historical incidence over a certain time period to predict the future occurrence of HFMD in Guangdong and Shandong between 2011 and 2019.The 2011-2018 data served as the training and verification set,while data from 2019 served as the prediction set.Six important parameters were selected and verified in this model and the deviation was displayed by the root mean square error and the mean absolute error.Results As the first application using a STGCN for disease forecasting,we succeeded in accurately predicting the incidence of HFMD over a 12-week period at the prefecture level,especially for cities of significant concern.Conclusions This model provides a novel approach for infectious disease prediction and may help health administrative departments implement effective control measures up to 3 months in advance,which may significantly reduce the morbidity associated with HFMD in the future.

Risk Early-Warning Method for Natural Disasters Based on Integration of Entropy and DEA Model

Risk early-warning of natural disasters is a very intricate non-deterministic prediction, and it was difficult to resolve the conflicts and incompatibility of the risk structure. Risk early-warning factors of natural disasters were differentiated into essential attributes and external characters, and its workflow mode was established on risk early-warning structure with integrated Entropy and DEA model, whose steps were put forward.

Finally, model was applied into landslide risk early-warning case in earthquake-damaged emergency process on slope engineering, which exemplified the outcome could reflect more risk information than the method of standard DEA model, and reflected the rationality, feasibility, and impersonality, revealing its better ability on comprehensive safety and structure risk.

Development and validation of a prediction model for early screening of people at high risk for colorectal cancer

BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer(CRC)is a serious threat worldwide.Although early screening is suggested to be the most effective method to prevent and control CRC,the current situation of early screening for CRC is still not optimistic.In China,the incidence of CRC in the Yangtze River Delta region is increasing dramatically,but few studies have been conducted.Therefore,it is necessary to develop a simple and efficient early screening model for CRC.AIM To develop and validate an early-screening nomogram model to identify individuals at high risk of CRC.METHODS Data of 64448 participants obtained from Ningbo Hospital,China between 2014 and 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.The cohort comprised 64448 individuals,of which,530 were excluded due to missing or incorrect data.Of 63918,7607(11.9%)individuals were considered to be high risk for CRC,and 56311(88.1%)were not.The participants were randomly allocated to a training set(44743)or validation set(19175).The discriminatory ability,predictive accuracy,and clinical utility of the model were evaluated by constructing and analyzing receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves and calibration curves and by decision curve analysis.Finally,the model was validated internally using a bootstrap resampling technique.RESULTS Seven variables,including demographic,lifestyle,and family history information,were examined.Multifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed that age[odds ratio(OR):1.03,95%confidence interval(CI):1.02-1.03,P<0.001],body mass index(BMI)(OR:1.07,95%CI:1.06-1.08,P<0.001),waist circumference(WC)(OR:1.03,95%CI:1.02-1.03 P<0.001),lifestyle(OR:0.45,95%CI:0.42-0.48,P<0.001),and family history(OR:4.28,95%CI:4.04-4.54,P<0.001)were the most significant predictors of high-risk CRC.Healthy lifestyle was a protective factor,whereas family history was the most significant risk factor.The area under the curve was 0.734(95%CI:0.723-0.745)for the final validation set ROC curve and 0.735(95%CI:0.728-0.742)for the training set ROC curve.The calibration curve demonstrated a high correlation between the CRC high-risk population predicted by the nomogram model and the actual CRC high-risk population.CONCLUSION The early-screening nomogram model for CRC prediction in high-risk populations developed in this study based on age,BMI,WC,lifestyle,and family history exhibited high accuracy.

Early warning method for thermal runaway of lithium-ion batteries under thermal abuse condition based on online electrochemical impedance monitoring

Early warning of thermal runaway(TR)of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)is a significant challenge in current application scenarios.Timely and effective TR early warning technology is urgently required considering the current fire safety situation of LIBs.In this work,we report an early warning method of TR with online electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)monitoring,which overcomes the shortcomings of warning methods based on traditional signals such as temperature,gas,and pressure with obvious delay and high cost.With in-situ data acquisition through accelerating rate calorimeter(ARC)-EIS test,the crucial features of TR were extracted using the RReliefF algorithm.TR mechanisms corresponding to the features at specific frequencies were analyzed.Finally,a three-level warning strategy for single battery,series module,and parallel module was formulated,which can successfully send out an early warning signal ahead of the self-heating temperature of battery under thermal abuse condition.The technology can provide a reliable basis for the timely intervention of battery thermal management and fire protection systems and is expected to be applied to electric vehicles and energy storage devices to realize early warning and improve battery safety.

Remote Monitoring and Early Warning Model of Frozen Soil in Dam Areas

In view of the cumbersome and often untimely process of manual collection and observation of frozen soil data parameters,and the damage caused to dams by frost heaving of frozen soil,a remote monitoring and an early warning model for frozen soil in dam areas was presented.The Pt100 temperature sensors and JM seam gauges were used as measurement tools in the system.The sensor layout was designed,based on the actual situation in the monitoring area.A 4G network was used for wireless transmission to monitor frozen soil data in real time.BP neural network was used to predict the parameters of frozen soil.After analysis,four factors including the average temperature of frozen soil,the type of frozen soil,the artificial upper limit of frozen soil and the building construction time were selected to establish an early warning model using fuzzy reasoning.The experimental results showed that the early warning model could reflect the influence on dam buildings of frost heaving and sinking of frozen soil,and provided technical support for predicting the hazard level.

Interpretable and Adaptable Early Warning Learning Analytics Model

Major issues currently restricting the use of learning analytics are the lack of interpretability and adaptability of the machine learning models used in this domain.Interpretability makes it easy for the stakeholders to understand the working of these models and adaptability makes it easy to use the same model for multiple cohorts and courses in educational institutions.Recently,some models in learning analytics are constructed with the consideration of interpretability but their interpretability is not quantified.However,adaptability is not specifically considered in this domain.This paper presents a new framework based on hybrid statistical fuzzy theory to overcome these limitations.It also provides explainability in the form of rules describing the reasoning behind a particular output.The paper also discusses the system evaluation on a benchmark dataset showing promising results.The measure of explainability,fuzzy index,shows that the model is highly interpretable.This system achieves more than 82%recall in both the classification and the context adaptation stages.

Application of Incident Chain Model and Targeted Dissemination Technology in Early Warning System

In order to improve the accuracy and efficiency of early warning system, the incident chain model and the targeted dissemination technology are proposed in this paper. Firstly, the occurrence probability, affected area and duration of disaster are predicted with the incident chain model and GIS. According to prediction results, the early warning system can accurately deliver early warning information specifically to the affected areas through targeted dissemination. Moreover, dissemination performance can also be evaluated in real time after early warning information dissemination, so that everyone in the affected area can receive early warning information successfully. The incident chain model and the targeted dissemination technology presented in this study are of great significance for improving the information dissemination ability of early warning system.

Financial crisis early-warning model of listed companies based on predicted value

To establish a financial early-warning model with high accuracy of discrimination and achieve the aim of long-term prediction, principal component analysis (PCA), Fisher discriminant, together with grey forecasting models are used at the same time. 110 A-share companies listed on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchange are selected as research samples. And 10 extractive factors with 89.746% of all the original information are determined by applying PCA, which obtains the goal of dimension reduction without information loss. Based on the index system, the early-warning model is constructed according to the Fisher rules. And then the GM(1,1) is adopted to predict financial ratios in 2004, according to 40 testing samples from 2000 to 2003. Finally, two different methods, a self-validated and a forecasting-validated, are used to test the validity of the financial crisis warning model. The empirical results show that the model has better predictability and feasibility, and GM(1,1) contributes to the ability to make long-term predictions.

Effect of preload forces on multidimensional signal dynamic behaviours for battery early safety warning

Providing early safety warning for batteries in real-world applications is challenging.In this study,comprehensive thermal abuse experiments are conducted to clarify the multidimensional signal evolution of battery failure under various preload forces.The time-sequence relationship among expansion force,voltage,and temperature during thermal abuse under five categorised stages is revealed.Three characteristic peaks are identified for the expansion force,which correspond to venting,internal short-circuiting,and thermal runaway.In particular,an abnormal expansion force signal can be detected at temperatures as low as 42.4°C,followed by battery thermal runaway in approximately 6.5 min.Moreover,reducing the preload force can improve the effectiveness of the early-warning method via the expansion force.Specifically,reducing the preload force from 6000 to 1000 N prolongs the warning time(i.e.,227 to 398 s)before thermal runaway is triggered.Based on the results,a notable expansion force early-warning method is proposed that can successfully enable early safety warning approximately 375 s ahead of battery thermal runaway and effectively prevent failure propagation with module validation.This study provides a practical reference for the development of timely and accurate early-warning strategies as well as guidance for the design of safer battery systems.

Comparing 11 early warning scores and three shock indices in early sepsis prediction in the emergency department

BACKGROUND:This study aimed to evaluate the discriminatory performance of 11 vital sign-based early warning scores(EWSs)and three shock indices in early sepsis prediction in the emergency department(ED).METHODS:We performed a retrospective study on consecutive adult patients with an infection over 3 months in a public ED in Hong Kong.The primary outcome was sepsis(Sepsis-3 definition)within 48 h of ED presentation.Using c-statistics and the DeLong test,we compared 11 EWSs,including the National Early Warning Score 2(NEWS2),Modified Early Warning Score,and Worthing Physiological Scoring System(WPS),etc.,and three shock indices(the shock index[SI],modified shock index[MSI],and diastolic shock index[DSI]),with Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome(SIRS)and quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(qSOFA)in predicting the primary outcome,intensive care unit admission,and mortality at different time points.RESULTS:We analyzed 601 patients,of whom 166(27.6%)developed sepsis.NEWS2 had the highest point estimate(area under the receiver operating characteristic curve[AUROC]0.75,95%CI 0.70-0.79)and was significantly better than SIRS,qSOFA,other EWSs and shock indices,except WPS,at predicting the primary outcome.However,the pooled sensitivity and specificity of NEWS2≥5 for the prediction of sepsis were 0.45(95%CI 0.37-0.52)and 0.88(95%CI 0.85-0.91),respectively.The discriminatory performance of all EWSs and shock indices declined when used to predict mortality at a more remote time point.CONCLUSION:NEWS2 compared favorably with other EWSs and shock indices in early sepsis prediction but its low sensitivity at the usual cut-off point requires further modification for sepsis screening.

Forage Monitoring and Prediction Model for Early Warning Application over the East of Africa Region

Rangelands dominate arid and semi-arid lands of the Greater Horn of Africa(GHA)region,whereby pastoralism being the primary source of livelihood.The pastoral livelihood is affected by the seasonal variability of pasture and water resources.This research sought to design a grid-based forage monitoring and prediction model for the cross-border areas of the GHA region.A technique known as Geographically Weighted Regression was used in developing the model with monthly rainfall,temperature,soil moisture,and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI).Rainfall and soil moisture had a high correlation with NDVI,and thus formed the model development parameters.The model performed well in predicting the available forage biomass at each grid-cell with March-May and October-December seasons depicting a similar pattern but with a different magnitude in ton/ha.The output is critical for actionable early warning over the GHA region’s rangeland areas.It is expected that this mode can be used operationally for forage monitoring and prediction over the eastern Africa region and further guide the regional,national,sub-national actors and policymakers on issuing advisories before the season.

Objective:To explore the appropriate modeling method of the early warning model of ischemic stroke recurrence in TCM.Methods:This was a prospective,multi-center and registered study conducted in 7 clinical subcenters from 8 provinces and 10 cities in China between 3rd November 2016 and 27th April,2019.1,741 patients with first-ever ischemic stroke were recruited.Univariate analysis was carried out using distance correlation coefficient,mutual information entropy,and statistical correlation test.Multivariate analysis adopted multi-factor Cox regression model and combined with expert opinions in the field of stroke to determine modeling variables.The generalized estimating equation of longitudinal data and the Cox proportional hazard regression model of cross-sectional data were used to construct and compare in the early warning model of ischemic stroke recalls.The area under the ROC curve(AUC value)was used to evaluate the early warning capability of the model.Results:The follow-up time was 1-3 years,and the median follow-up time was 1.42 years(95%CI:1.37-1.47).Recurrence events occurred in 175 cases,and the cumulative recurrence rate was 10.05%(95%CI:8.64%-11.47%).The AUC values of the TCM syndrome and TCM constitution model were 0.71809 and 0.72668 based on the generalized estimating equation and the AUC values.Conclusion:The generalized estimating equation may be more suitable for the construction of early warning models of stroke recurrence with TCM characteristics,which provides a certain reference for the evaluation of secondary prevention of ischemic stroke.

Multi-Lever EarlyWarning forWind and Photovoltaic Power Ramp Events Based on Neural Network and Fuzzy Logic

With the increasing penetration of renewable energy in power system,renewable energy power ramp events(REPREs),dominated by wind power and photovoltaic power,pose significant threats to the secure and stable operation of power systems.This paper presents an early warning method for REPREs based on long short-term memory(LSTM)network and fuzzy logic.First,the warning levels of REPREs are defined by assessing the control costs of various power control measures.Then,the next 4-h power support capability of external grid is estimated by a tie line power predictionmodel,which is constructed based on the LSTMnetwork.Finally,considering the risk attitudes of dispatchers,fuzzy rules are employed to address the boundary value attribution of the early warning interval,improving the rationality of power ramp event early warning.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method can generate reasonable early warning levels for REPREs,guiding decision-making for control strategy.

ARHCS (Automatic Rainfall Half-Life Cluster System): A Landslides Early Warning System (LEWS) Using Cluster Analysis and Automatic Threshold Definition

A significant portion of Landslide Early Warning Systems (LEWS) relies on the definition of operational thresholds and the monitoring of cumulative rainfall for alert issuance. These thresholds can be obtained in various ways, but most often they are based on previous landslide data. This approach introduces several limitations. For instance, there is a requirement for the location to have been previously monitored in some way to have this type of information recorded. Another significant limitation is the need for information regarding the location and timing of incidents. Despite the current ease of obtaining location information (GPS, drone images, etc.), the timing of the event remains challenging to ascertain for a considerable portion of landslide data. Concerning rainfall monitoring, there are multiple ways to consider it, for instance, examining accumulations over various intervals (1 h, 6 h, 24 h, 72 h), as well as in the calculation of effective rainfall, which represents the precipitation that actually infiltrates the soil. However, in the vast majority of cases, both the thresholds and the rain monitoring approach are defined manually and subjectively, relying on the operators’ experience. This makes the process labor-intensive and time-consuming, hindering the establishment of a truly standardized and rapidly scalable methodology on a large scale. In this work, we propose a Landslides Early Warning System (LEWS) based on the concept of rainfall half-life and the determination of thresholds using Cluster Analysis and data inversion. The system is designed to be applied in extensive monitoring networks, such as the one utilized by Cemaden, Brazil’s National Center for Monitoring and Early Warning of Natural Disasters.
