Predicting Intensive Care Unit Admissions in COVID-19 Patients: An AI-Powered Machine Learning Model by A. M. Mutawa

“…We used 4399 patients to identify ICU admission with predictors such as shortness of breath, high D-dimer values, and abnormal chest X-rays. Any data imbalance was addressed by employing cross-validation along with the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE), the feature selection was refined using backward elimination, and the model interpretability was improved using Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP). …”

New tribe-level classification of Hypostominae (Loricariidae) based on optimization of morphological states on DNA-based relationships, with descriptions of three new tribes and tw... by Jonathan W. Armbruster, Nathan K. Lujan

“…The new genera are distinguishable by ‘P.’ pectegenitor having extremely long cheek odontodes reaching to the third plate of midventral plate series (vs. anterior to opercular opening in ‘P.’ sidereus) and 10 (vs. 7) branched dorsal-fin rays. We re-optimized morphological character-state change by mapping states previously used to infer evolutionary history onto a composite phylogenetic tree inferred from DNA-sequence data. …”
