The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to a worldwide crisis in public health. It is crucial we understand the epidemiological trends and impact of non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs), such as lockdowns for effective management of the disease and control of its spread. We develop and validate a novel intelligent computational model to predict epidemiological trends of COVID-19, with the model parameters enabling an evaluation of the impact of NPIs. By representing the number of daily confirmed cases (NDCC) as a time-series, we assume that, with or without NPIs, the pattern of the pandemic satisfies a series of Gaussian distributions according to the central limit theorem. The underlying pandemic trend is first extracted using a singular spectral analysis (SSA) technique, which decomposes the NDCC time series into the sum of a small number of independent and interpretable components such as a slow varying trend, oscillatory components and structureless noise. We then use a mixture articular by relative variations in their underlying sigma, alpha and mu values. The paper concludes with a number of open questions and outlines future research directions.Traditionally, abnormal heart sound classification is framed as a three-stage process. The first stage involves segmenting the phonocardiogram to detect fundamental heart sounds; after which features are extracted and classification is performed. Some researchers in the field argue the segmentation step is an unwanted computational burden, whereas others embrace it as a prior step to feature extraction. When comparing accuracies achieved by studies that have segmented heart sounds before analysis with those who have overlooked that step, the question oftextit whether to segment heart sounds before feature extraction is still open. In this study, we explicitly examine the importance of heart sound segmentation as a prior step for heart sound classification and then seek to apply the obtained insights to propose a robust classifier for abnormal heart sound detection. Furthermore, recognizing the pressing need for explainable Artificial Intelligence (AI) models in the medical domain, we also unveil hidden representations learned by the classifier using model interpretation techniques. FR 180204 in vivo Experimental results demonstrate that the segmentation which can be learned by the model plays an essential role in abnormal heart sound classification. Our new classifier is also shown to be robust, stable, and most importantly, explainable, with an accuracy of almost 100% on the widely used PhysioNet dataset.The proximal inertial gradient descent (PIGD) is efficient for the composite minimization and applicable for broad of machine learning problems. In this article, we revisit the computational complexity of this algorithm and present other novel results, especially on the convergence rates of the objective function values. The nonergodic O(1/k) rate is proved for PIGD with constant step size when the objective function is coercive. When the objective function fails to promise coercivity, we prove the sublinear rate with diminishing inertial parameters. In the case that the objective function satisfies the Polyak-Łojasiewicz (PŁ) property, the linear convergence is proved with much larger and general step size than the previous literature. We also extend our results to the multiblock version and present the computational complexity. Both cyclic and stochastic index selection strategies are considered.Nonparametric dimensionality reduction techniques, such as t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) and uniform manifold approximation and projection (UMAP), are proficient in providing visualizations for data sets of fixed sizes. However, they cannot incrementally map and insert new data points into an already provided data visualization. We present self-organizing nebulous growths (SONG), a parametric nonlinear dimensionality reduction technique that supports incremental data visualization, i.e., incremental addition of new data while preserving the structure of the existing visualization. In addition, SONG is capable of handling new data increments, no matter whether they are similar or heterogeneous to the already observed data distribution. We test SONG on a variety of real and simulated data sets. The results show that SONG is superior to Parametric t-SNE, t-SNE, and UMAP in incremental data visualization. Especially, for heterogeneous increments, SONG improves over Parametric t-SNE by 14.98% on the Fashion MNIST data set and 49.73% on the MNIST data set regarding the cluster quality measured by the adjusted mutual information scores. On similar or homogeneous increments, the improvements are 8.36% and 42.26%, respectively. Furthermore, even when the abovementioned data sets are presented all at once, SONG performs better or comparable to UMAP and superior to t-SNE. We also demonstrate that the algorithmic foundations of SONG render it more tolerant to noise compared with UMAP and t-SNE, thus providing greater utility for data with high variance, high mixing of clusters, or noise.This article is concerned with the problem of the global Mittag-Leffler synchronization and stability for fractional-order quaternion-valued neural networks (FOQVNNs). The systems of FOQVNNs, which contain either general activation functions or linear threshold ones, are successfully established. FR 180204 in vivo Meanwhile, two distinct methods, such as separation and nonseparation, have been employed to solve the transformation of the studied systems of FOQVNNs, which dissatisfy the commutativity of quaternion multiplication. Moreover, two novel inequalities are deduced based on the general parameters. Compared with the existing inequalities, the new inequalities have their unique superiorities because they can make full use of the additional parameters. Due to the Lyapunov theory, two novel Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals (LKFs) can be easily constructed. The novelty of LKFs comes from a wider range of parameters, which can be involved in the construction of LKFs. Furthermore, mainly based on the new inequalities and LKFs, more multiple and more flexible criteria are efficiently obtained for the discussed problem.
