In this paper, we present a graph neural networks (GNNs)-based fast solver (GraphSolver) for solving combined field integral equations (CFIEs) of 3D conducting bodies. Rao-Wilton-Glisson (RWG) basis functions are employed to discretely and accurately represent the geometry of 3D conducting bodies. A concise and informative graph representation is then constructed by treating each RWG function as a node in the graph, enabling the flow of current between nodes. With the transformed graphs, GraphSolver is developed to directly predict real and imaginary parts of the x, y and z components of the surface current densities at each node (RWG function). Numerical results demonstrate the efficacy of GraphSolver in solving CFIEs for 3D conducting bodies with varying levels of geometric complexity, including basic 3D targets, missile-shaped targets, and airplane-shaped targets.

Sepsis requires urgent diagnosis, but research is predominantly focused on Western datasets. In this study, we perform a comparative analysis of two ensemble learning methods, LightGBM and XGBoost, using the public eICU-CRD dataset and a private South Korean St. Mary's Hospital's dataset. Our analysis reveals the effectiveness of these methods in addressing healthcare data imbalance and enhancing sepsis detection. Specifically, LightGBM shows a slight edge in computational efficiency and scalability. The study paves the way for the broader application of machine learning in critical care, thereby expanding the reach of predictive analytics in healthcare globally.

In this paper, we propose the neural Born iteration method (NeuralBIM) for solving 2D inverse scattering problems (ISPs) by drawing on the scheme of physics-informed supervised residual learning (PhiSRL) to emulate the computing process of the traditional Born iteration method (TBIM). NeuralBIM employs independent convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to learn the alternate update rules of two different candidate solutions with their corresponding residuals. Two different schemes of NeuralBIMs are presented in this paper including supervised and unsupervised learning schemes. With the data set generated by method of moments (MoM), supervised NeuralBIMs are trained with the knowledge of total fields and contrasts. Unsupervised NeuralBIM is guided by the physics-embedded loss functions founding on the governing equations of ISPs, which results in no requirements of total fields and contrasts for training. Representative numerical results further validate the effectiveness and competitiveness of both supervised and unsupervised NeuralBIMs.
