Abnormal Electricity Consumption Behaviors Detection Based on Improved Deep Auto-Encoder by Nvgui LIN, Lanxiu HONG, Daoshan HUANG, Yang YI, Zhixuan LIU, Qifeng XU

“…Firstly, the data of normal electricity users are employed as training samples, and the effective features of the data are automatically extracted by AE; and then the data is reconstructed to calculate the detection threshold. Because the effective data characteristics are destroyed by the abnormal behaviors, the abnormal behaviors can be detected through comparing the difference between the reconstruction error and the detection threshold. …”

Assessment of printed lung cancer surgery patient education materials in the United StatesCentral MessagePerspective by Woorin Jang, BS, Savanna Kerstiens, MA, Rachel Nordgren, PhD, Anne Dijkstra, MB, Marina DePablo, MPH, DNP, RN, Lauren Gleason, MD, MPH, Darren Bryan, MD, Jessica S. Donington, MD, MSCR, Mark K. Ferguson, MD, Jane L. Holl, MD, MPH, Maria Lucia Madariaga, MD

“…The average reading level of the PEMs ranged from 7th grade to 11th grade, significantly exceeding the recommended 6th grade health literacy threshold (P < .01). Although mean understandability (73.7 ± 13.2%) and actionability (70.2 ± 17.8%) scores were not significantly different from the minimum threshold, and the mean accessibility score (81.8 ± 13.5%) was significantly higher than the threshold (P < .05), there was wide variation in the scores. …”
