SJR Q1Scientific ReportsOA

This study aimed to develop a machine learning-based clinical decision support system for emergency departments based on the decision-making framework of physicians. We extracted 27 fixed and 93 observation features using data on vital signs, mental status, laboratory results, and electrocardiograms during emergency department stay. Outcomes included intubation, admission to the intensive care unit, inotrope or vasopressor administration, and in-hospital cardiac arrest. eXtreme gradient boosting

Effect of deep learning-based assistive technology use on chest radiograph interpretation by emergency department physicians: a prospective interventional simulation-based study
Ji Hoon Kim, Sang Gil Han, A‐Ra Cho, Hye Jung Shin, Song‐Ee Baek
SJR Q1BMC Medical Informatics and Decision MakingOA

BACKGROUND: Interpretation of chest radiographs (CRs) by emergency department (ED) physicians is inferior to that by radiologists. Recent studies have investigated the effect of deep learning-based assistive technology on CR interpretation (DLCR), although its relevance to ED physicians remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether DLCR supports CR interpretation and the clinical decision-making of ED physicians. METHODS: We conducted a prospective interventional study using a web-bas

SJR Q1SensorsOA

Intermittent manual measurement of vital signs may not rapidly predict sepsis development in febrile patients admitted to the emergency department (ED). We aimed to evaluate the predictive performance of a wireless monitoring device that continuously measures heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (RR) and a machine learning analysis in febrile but stable patients in the ED. We analysed 468 patients (age, ≥18 years; training set, n = 277; validation set, n = 93; test set, n = 98) having fever (tem

BACKGROUND: Natural language processing has been established as an important tool when using unstructured text data; however, most studies in the medical field have been limited to a retrospective analysis of text entered manually by humans. Little research has focused on applying natural language processing to the conversion of raw voice data generated in the clinical field into text using speech-to-text algorithms. OBJECTIVE: In this study, we investigated the promptness and reliability of a r

Estimation of Critical cooling Rates for Glass Formation in Bulk Metallic Glasses through Non-isothermal Thermal Analysis
김지훈, 김원태, 김도향, 박준식, 박은수

Critical cooling rate (Rc) for glass formation has been calculated from an integrated transformation curve, constructed by combining continuous cooling transformation (CCT) and continuous heating transformation (CHT) curves. The CCT and CHT curves were calculated from experimental measurements on cooling rate dependence of solidification onset temperature using classical nucleation kinetics and heating rate dependence of crystallization onset temperature using Kissinger method, respectively.

SJR Q1International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction

Understanding and predicting a driver’s behaviors in a vehicle is a prospective function embedded in a smart car. Beyond the patterns of observable behaviors, driver’s intention could be identified based on goal-driven behaviors. A computational model to classify driver intention in visual search which is finding a target with one’s eyes as moving selective attention across a search field, could improve the level of intelligence that a smart car could demonstrate.
