Construction of feature selection and efficacy prediction model for transformation therapy of locally advanced pancreatic cancer based on CT, 18F-FDG PET/CT, DNA mutation, and CA19... by Liang Qi, Xiang Li, Jiayao Ni, Yali Du, Qing Gu, Baorui Liu, Jian He, Juan Du

“…In constructing the short-term treatment efficacy prediction model, ensemble learning methods such as adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and RandomForest performed the best. However, in terms of model interpretability, decision tree methods provide the most intuitive display of the predictive details of the model. …”

Modern theoretical-methodological and economic-legal problems of implementing the concept of sustainable development of tourism and recreation in Ukraine by Ion Dubovich, Alla Anishchenko, Nadia Yurkiv, Yuliia Volkovska, Rostyslav Matsko, Oleh Rozhkovych, Mariana-Nadiia Dubovich, Oksana Pylypiak

“…It is emphasized that the main problems that are currently hindering the implementation of the concept of sustainable development of tourism and recreation in Ukraine today are, first of all, the fact that hundreds of hectares of the territory of Ukraine are mined, the territories are contaminated with ammunition, large areas of the forest fund have been destroyed, the infrastructure has been destroyed, etc.It is noted that the Methodology for determining damage and losses, approved by the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Natural Resources of Ukraine, takes into account only a part of economic losses, while other significant losses that directly relate to the tourism and recreation industry (loss of life and health of the population of Ukraine, separation Ukrainian families, destroyed living conditions of Ukrainian citizens, damaged or destroyed residential buildings, moral, aesthetic and many other damages) are not taken into account.It is substantiated that for an objective assessment of damage and the amount of damage, it is also necessary to take into account environmental damage and destroyed natural resources, including mined and polluted hundreds of hectares of the territory of Ukraine, etc. …”
