Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) is a multifactorial disease-causing joint pain, deformity and dysfunction. The aim of this paper is to provide a data mining approach that could identify important risk factors which contribute to the diagnosis of KOA and their impact on model output, with a focus on posthoc explainability. Data were obtained from the osteoarthritis initiative (OAI) database enrolling people, with nonsymptomatic KOA and symptomatic KOA or being at high risk of developing KOA. The current study considered multidisciplinary data from heterogeneous sources such as questionnaire data, physical activity indexes, self-reported data about joint symptoms, disability and function as well as general health and physical exams’ data from individuals with or without KOA from the baseline visit. For the data mining part, a robust feature selection methodology was employed consisting of filter, wrapper and embedded techniques whereas feature ranking was decided on the basis of a majority vote scheme. The validation of the extracted factors was performed in subgroups employing seven well-known classifiers. A 77.88 % classification accuracy was achieved by Logistic Regression on the group of the first forty selected (40) risk factors. We investigated the behavior of the best model, with respect to classification errors and the impact of used features, to confirm their clinical relevance. The interpretation of the model output was performed by SHAP. The results are the basis for the development of easy-to-use diagnostic tools for clinicians for the early detection of KOA.

Knee Osteoarthritis(KOA) is a serious disease that causes a variety of symptoms, such as severe pain and it is mostly observed in the elder people. The main goal of this study is to build a prognostic tool that will predict the progression of pain in KOA patients using data collected at baseline. In order to do that we leverage a feature importance voting system for identifying the most important risk factors and various machine learning algorithms to classify, whether a patient’s pain with KOA, will stabilize, increase or decrease. These models have been implemented on different combinations of feature subsets, and results up to 84.3% have been achieved with only a small amount of features. The proposed methodology demonstrated unique potential in identifying pain progression at an early stage therefore improving future KOA prevention efforts.

The paper proposes a new approach to extract facial features via color inverted points. This approach has been incorporated in GRAFFER, a system that we have been developing towards GRoup AFFect Recognition in educational, entertaining and other events. As facial features and especially the eyes, the mouth and the eyebrows offer a lot of information about human emotional states, we investigated existing facial component extraction methods and developed feature extraction through color-inversion of frames-images with facial components.The proposed approach is implemented and tested on the extensive datasets that we have collected with GRAFFER.

Hotel customers express reviews for every accommodation service provided and/or for the accommodation as a whole. On the other hand, reviews are particularly interested for the tourism industry in order to extract customers’ opinions and aspects, which will assist them to improve their provided services. The reviews can be thoroughly found in the Web and their quantity can be considered as big data in Natural Language Processing. In this paper, we have designed an architecture and have implemented a system that initially utilizes some preprocessing techniques, as classic Natural Language Processing approaches, namely TF-IDF bag of words and word embeddings, are employed. These approaches can be further used as the input of various classifiers and Long Short Term Memory Neural Networks. The accuracy of these classifiers is evaluated on a dataset consisting of several reviews for the well known evaluation metrics, namely Precision, Recall and Fl-Measure.

Data security in the healthcare domain is of paramount importance. There is a need for advanced access control mechanisms that can be used in the healthcare domain and raise security awareness. In this work, we report on the development of a web-based editor, that enables a user to edit concepts and properties for tailoring a context-aware security model for creating and enforcing access control policies for electronic health records (EHRs). These access control policies are to be enforced as part of two different sequential authorisation paradigms that will be employed for achieving high levels of security controls. These paradigms are the Attributebased Access Control (ABAC), which permits or denies access and/or grants or not editing rights to (encrypted) EHRs and the Attribute-based Encryption (ABE), which handles the way sensitive data should be decrypted, so as to edit functionalities for creating context-aware access policies (ABAC and ABE).

Energy Efficiency (EE) has been identified as one of the most cost-effective means aiming at reducing energy consumption while maintaining an equivalent level of economic activity. Mainstreaming EE financing is considered a key priority to avert climate change. The lack of evidence on the performance, commonly agreed procedures and standards for EE investments, particularly during the first stages of investment generation and pre-selection/pre-evaluation, are the key problems hampering EE investment financing. It is also true that often project developers do not have the expertise or resources to make a convincing financing case for investors. In order to boost EE investments, this paper proposes a Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methodology intending to support financing institutions to identify attractive EE project ideas in the early development phase of project initiation and planning. The study implements the ELECTRE TRI method to benchmark EE project ideas in a standardized, investor recognizable credit rating form. A respective web-based tool facilitating the methodology and the screening of EE projects is also developed, supporting financing bodies and EE funds to rapidly detect and aggregate projects that meet the necessary criteria to be financed.

Eye gaze provides indicative information about the status and the behavior of a person and can be very assistive in human-computer interaction. Eye-gaze analysis is very helpful in a variety of applications in order to understand the interest of the users, their behavior or even to unveil distractions. However, the accurate eye-gaze estimation is a very challenging process. In this paper, we present an eye gaze estimation work that relies on convolutional neural networks which imitate the LeNet’s architecture. They analyze eye gaze and provide a 2D vector that concerns the coordinates of the specific pixel inside the 2D screen’s space, in which the user is looking at. Also, a system capable of working under various real-world conditions such as light, angle and distance differentiations was designed and developed. An evaluation study was performed and the results are quite promising pointing out that the system is scalable and accurate in estimating the eye gaze of the users.

This paper proposes an innovative theoretical framework for the development of a persuasive prototype for supporting and evaluating an individual’s traveling attitude through the use of well-designed persuasive smartphone applications for sustainable urban mobility purposes. The newly introduced framework emphasizes the importance of engaging and committing users to improve their travel habits through continuous motivation and evaluation of both how their traveling habits affect the environment and how they contribute to better future mobility planning decisions. It consists of five stages; it takes into consideration various elements from existing frameworks and introduces a critical stage, that of the users’ rewarded assessment/feedback, based on the daily evaluation of the application effectiveness to persuade the user to move in an eco-friendlier way. For each stage of the proposed framework, a detailed description of the strategies that could be applied, and the related target group is provided.

The Inverter is a DC/AC type Power Converter and is an important part of Electrical Power Networks because several energy source outputs are in DC form. In the mid-80s, the Multilevel Inverter (MLI) was developed. Its output is a staircase waveform, which approximates the sinusoidal waveform of the Power Network. Approximation improves as the number of stairs (levels) increases. But due to practical difficulties, concerning the circuit layout and the implementation of a suitable control strategy for the switching elements, eleven levels output is a common practice. Research interest around MLIs abounds due to the advantages they offer compared to classical DC/AC Inverters. MLIs may lead to new circuit layouts with fewer components, novel and more effective control strategies for the switching elements and to the development of new modulation methods for calculating the time of activation and deactivation of the switching elements. In this paper we propose a new modulation method based on the technique of Mathematical optimization.

Many people with intellectual disabilities (PID) can experience problems in different aspects of their everyday life. The capabilities of modern mobile applications offer promising opportunities to help PID to cope with their everyday life problems and to feel more confident in everyday activities. Mobile application development is one of the most fast-moving industries and to support the mobile applications development process special software tools are designed. However, the development of mobile applications for PID has its own specifics due to capabilities and limitations of this category of users. The article presents a mobile application development management (MAMD) system, that takes into account these specifics and covers both the stage of the development of mobile applications for PID and the stage of their usage. The system supports modular development of mobile applications based on reusing software components. The system allows to conFigure the interface of mobile applications and adapt it to the users with different capabilities and limitations. The system is universal in terms of platform selection, so the developers of mobile applications for PID can always chose the most suitable platform for different categories of PID.
