Item Importance of Systematic Right Ventricular Assessment in Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Candidates: A Machine Learning Approach(2021) Galli, Elena; Le Rolle, Virginie; Smiseth, Otto A.; Duchenne, Jurgen; Aalen, John M.; Larsen, Camilla K.; Sade, Elif A.; Hubert, Arnaud; Anilkumar, Smitha; Penicka, Martin; Linde, Cecilia; Leclercq, Christophe; Hernandez, Alfredo; Voigt, Jens-Uwe; Donal, Erwan; 33422667Background: Despite all having systolic heart failure and broad QRS intervals, patients screened for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) are highly heterogeneous, and it remains extremely challenging to predict the impact of CRT devices on left ventricular function and outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relative impact of clinical, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic data on the left ventricular remodeling and prognosis of CRT candidates by the application of machine learning approaches. Methods: One hundred ninety-three patients with systolic heart failure receiving CRT according to current recommendations were prospectively included in this multicenter study. A combination of the Boruta algorithm and random forest methods was used to identify features predicting both CRT volumetric response and prognosis. Model performance was tested using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. The k-medoid method was also applied to identify clusters of phenotypically similar patients. Results: From 28 clinical, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic variables, 16 features were predictive of CRT response, and 11 features were predictive of prognosis. Among the predictors of CRT response, eight variables (50%) pertained to right ventricular size or function. Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion was the main feature associated with prognosis. The selected features were associated with particularly good prediction of both CRT response (area under the curve, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.74-0.87) and outcomes (area under the curve, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.75-0.93). An unsupervised machine learning approach allowed the identification of two phenogroups of patients who differed significantly in clinical variables and parameters of biventricular size and right ventricular function. The two phenogroups had significantly different prognosis (hazard ratio, 4.70; 95% CI, 2.1-10.0; P < .0001; log-rank P < .0001). Conclusions: Machine learning can reliably identify clinical and echocardiographic features associated with CRT response and prognosis. The evaluation of both right ventricular size and functional parameters has pivotal importance for the risk stratification of CRT candidates and should be systematically performed in patients undergoing CRT.

MATERIAL and METHODS: A total of 3580 images obtained from 179 individuals were used for training and validation. After random rotation and vertical flip, training data was augmented by factor of 10 in each iteration. In order to increase data processing time, every single image converted into a Jpeg image which has a resolution of 320x320. Accuracy, precision and recall rates were calculated after training of the algorithm. RESULTS: Following training, CNN achieved acceptable performance ratios of 0.854 to 0.944 for accuracy, 0.812 to 0.980 for precision and 0.738 to 0.907 for recall. Also, CNN was able to detect HGG cases even though there is no apparent mass lesion in the given image. CONCLUSION: Our preliminary findings demonstrate; currently proposed CNN model achieves acceptable performance results for the automatic detection of HGGs on T2-weighted images.Item Saldırı tespit sistemlerinde genetik algoritma kullanarak nitelik seçimi ve çoklu sınıflandırıcı füzyonu(2018) Özgür, A.; Erdem, H.With the improvements in information systems, intrusion detection systems (IDS) become more important. IDS can be thought as a classification problem. An important step of classification applications is feature selection step. Nowadays, to improve accuracy of classifiers, it is recommended to use classifier fusion instead of single classifiers. This study proposes to use genetic algorithms for both feature selection and weight selection for classifier fusion in IDS. This proposed system called GA-NS-AB, has been applied to NSL-KDD dataset. Number of classifiers used in fusion changes between 2 and 8. Following classifiers have been used: Adaboost, Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, Random Forests, Gradient Boosting, K-Nearest Neighbor, and Neural Networks Multi-Layer Perceptron. The results of the proposed method have been compared with simple voting and probability voting fusion methods and single classifiers. In addition, GA-NS-AB is also compared with previous results. GA-NS-AB is a high accuracy classifier fusion that reduces test and training time. © 2018 Gazi Universitesi Muhendislik-Mimarlik. All rights reserved.
