Enhancing tree-based machine learning for chlorophyll-a prediction in coastal seawater through spatiotemporal feature integration.

Marine environmental research
The excessive growth of phytoplankton in water can deplete oxygen, release toxins, harm aquatic life, cause economic losses, and threaten coastal residents. Accurately predicting phytoplankton levels is crucial for safeguarding marine life and coasta...

Acceptability, applicability, and cost-utility of artificial-intelligence-powered low-cost portable fundus camera for diabetic retinopathy screening in primary health care settings.

Diabetes research and clinical practice
AIMS: To evaluate the acceptability, applicability, and cost-utility of AI-powered portable fundus cameras for diabetic retinopathy (DR) screening in Hong Kong, providing a viable alternative screening solution for resource-limited areas.

Influence pathways of noise exposure on people's negative emotions and health across different activity contexts: A neural network-based double machine learning approach.

Health & place
Noise is a major global environmental issue that raises concerns about both mental and physical health. However, few studies have investigated the mediating role of emotions in the pathways linking noise exposure to health outcomes. Additionally, man...

Explainable deep learning models for predicting water pipe failures.

Journal of environmental management
Failures within water distribution networks (WDNs) lead to significant environmental and economic impacts. While existing research has established various predictive models for pipe failures, there remains a lack of studies focusing on the probabilit...
