Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of structures exposed to fluid flow is a complex phenomenon that can lead to fatigue damage and failure. Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) are a promising approach to model VIV by incorporating both data and physical laws. This study develops a PINN framework to analyze VIV of a cylinder in cross-flow. The model integrates the fluid dynamics equations, cylinder equations of motion, and vibration data into a neural network. Nonlinearities and fluid forces are learned by the network through minimizing loss functions representing physics and data. The trained PINN model accurately predicts displacement and stress for varying flow speeds. A parametric study explores the effects of mass, damping, and flow parameters on VIV amplitude and frequency. The PINN model provides insights into energy transfer mechanisms and key parameters governing VIV. The integration of data and physics-based losses in PINNs is demonstrated as an effective approach for analysis and knowledge discovery in fluid-structure interaction problems.

Traditional healthcare systems have grappled with meeting the diverse needs of millions of patients, resulting in inefficiencies and suboptimal outcomes. However, the emergence of machine learning (ML) has ushered in a transformative paradigm shift towards value-based treatment, empowering healthcare providers to deliver personalized and highly effective care. Modern healthcare equipment and devices now integrate internal applications that collect and store comprehensive patient data, providing a rich resource for ML-driven predictive models. In this research article, we explore the profound impact of ML on contemporary healthcare, emphasizing its potential to significantly enhance patient care and optimize resource allocation. Our study presents a robust predictive model capable of accurately forecasting patient diseases based on input information and various parameters, leveraging extensive datasets encompassing diverse patient populations. We compared several ML algorithms, including Logistic Regression (accuracy: 0.796875), K-Nearest Neighbors (accuracy: 0.7864583333333334), XG Boost (accuracy: 0.78125), and PyTorch (accuracy: 0.7337662337662337), to identify the best-performing model. The achieved accuracies underscore the effectiveness of these ML techniques in disease prediction and underscore the potential for improving patient outcomes. Beyond the technical aspects, we explore the broader implications of value-based treatment and the integration of ML for various healthcare stakeholders. By emphasizing the numerous benefits of personalized and proactive medical care, our findings illustrate the substantial potential of ML-driven predictive healthcare models to revolutionize traditional healthcare systems. The adoption of ML in healthcare lays the foundation for a more efficient, effective, and patient-centered medical ecosystem, supporting the sustainability and adaptability of healthcare systems in the face of expanding patient populations and complex medical needs. This article significantly contributes to the field by providing comprehensive insights into the experimental stages, showcasing the achieved results, and highlighting the key conclusions derived from our study. By addressing the limitations of the previous abstract, we ensure a more informative and substantial overview of our research, offering valuable knowledge for researchers, practitioners, and decision-makers striving to leverage the power of ML in healthcare innovation.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become increasingly pervasive across various domains, including smartphones, social media platforms, search engines, and autonomous vehicles, among others. This study undertakes a scoping review of the current landscape of AI technologies, following the PRISMA framework, with the aim of identifying the most advanced technologies utilized in different domains of AI research. Three reputable journals within the artificial intelligence and machine learning domain, namely the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, the Journal of Machine Learning Research, and Machine Learning, were selected for this review. Articles published in 2022 were scrutinized against certain criteria: the technology must be tested against comparable solutions, employ commonly approved or well-justified datasets, and demonstrate improvements over comparable solutions. A crucial aspect of technology development identified in this review is the processing and exploitation of data collected from diverse sources. Given the highly unstructured nature of data, technological solutions should minimize the need for manual intervention by humans. The review indicates that creating labeled datasets is a labor-intensive process, leading to increased research focus on solutions leveraging unsupervised or semi-supervised learning technologies. Efficient updating of learning algorithms and the interpretability of predictions emerge as key considerations in the development of AI technologies. Moreover, in real-world applications, ensuring safety and providing explainable predictions are imperative before widespread adoption can be achieved. Thus, this review underscores the importance of addressing these factors to facilitate the responsible and effective integration of AI technologies into various domains.
