AI-Based Epidemic Spread Prediction and Public Health Response Optimization: A Systematic Study from Data Analysis to Policy Implementation
Article thumbnail
The paper discusses how AI can be used to predict epidemics and improve public health responses on a wide range of critical topics from disease prediction using data to policymaking. Even conventional epidemiological models, often constrained by parameters, find it difficult to adapt to rapidly evolving disease dynamics. Our method combines machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms, such as long short-term memory (LSTM) and reinforcement learning (RL), to dynamically anticipate infection peaks and outbreak hotspots. Using both time-series and spatial data, the hybrid CNN-LSTM model predicted high-risk areas at a prediction accuracy of 89% and drastically improved the public health response planning. Further, the RL-based policy optimization system outperformed the traditional approach, enabling adaptive lockdowns and resource optimisation that reduced peak infection rates by 25% in dense regions. What we’ve found demonstrates AI’s ability to deliver both practical and predictive insights on epidemic dynamics and enable customisable, adaptive health policies. The work aims to advance AI-enabled epidemic management by offering a revolving door for predictive modeling and policy adaptations, responsive to changing epidemiological needs.

Article thumbnail
This paper presents an in-depth learning process for Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and self-care planning in Adult Day Health Centers. The framework integrates multi-modal sensor data fusion with deep learning architectures to provide continuous monitoring and automated evaluation of older people's legal status. The system uses a hierarchical system combined with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, enhanced by monitoring systems for physical-spatial learning. Many data streams from wearable devices, environmental sensors, and medical monitoring devices are becoming pre-processed and de-processed. The framework incorporates a dynamic care plan adaptation strategy utilizing reinforcement learning techniques for intervention optimization. Experimental validation conducted across three Adult Day Health Centers with 150 participants over six months demonstrated superior performance compared to traditional assessment methods.

Data-Driven Supply Chain Performance Optimization Through Predictive Analytics and Machine Learning
Article thumbnail
The paper discusses the use of predictive analytics and machine learning techniques like the LSTM neural network in order to enhance supply chain effectiveness. Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), JIT, and linear programming are well known for their supply chain optimization approaches, but they rarely take the challenge of an evolving supply chain into account. Such methods ignore real-time information and the non-linear dynamics of supply chain variables. Instead, the LSTM model takes historical and real-time data and calculates demand with high precision, making it easier to manage your inventory, avoid stockouts, and improve customer experience. As shown in the paper, LSTM provides an accuracy rate of 91% for forecasting demand, which is superior to the use of other conventional statistical methods like Moving Averages and Exponential Smoothing. The impact of this advanced machine learning technology for optimizing supply chain performance is huge, it reduces the operating cost, optimizes the use of resources, and delivers the best service. This work demonstrates how predictive analytics and machine learning can enable supply chain management to be flexible, effective and adaptable to market shifts.

Deep Learning-Driven Order Execution Strategies in High-Frequency Trading: An Empirical Study on Enhancing Market Efficiency
Article thumbnail
This paper analyzes the efficacy of deep learning models, in particular reinforcement learning, in optimising the order execution for HFT. Typical execution models such as volume-weighted average price (VWAP) and time-weighted average price (TWAP) are typically unsuitable for HFT as they lack flexibility and are also latency. To solve these problems, our work utilizes a PPO reinforcement learning algorithm. Based on high-frequency tick data, the model continuously adapts to market conditions and enables performance enhancements in execution quality, speed and versatility under volatile markets. The experiment showed that the deep learning model performed better than the VWAP baseline, filling at 92%, market impact reduced by 15%, and running 43% faster. As this work shows, adaptive, deep learning based strategies not only enhance HFT execution, but also promote stability in the market, highlighting the possibilities of AI as a practical tool for trading.

AI-Enhanced Digital Twins for Energy Efficiency and Carbon Footprint Reduction in Smart City Infrastructure
Article thumbnail
The combination of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Digital Twin technology provides disruptive potential to increase energy efficiency and carbon footprint in smart city infrastructure. Digital Twins — virtual copies of the real-world systems — are augmented by AI algorithms that enable continuous monitoring, predictive analysis and optimization. In this paper, we explore the use of AI-based Digital Twins on smart buildings, transport networks and smart grids to save significant amounts of energy and drive sustainability. This is done through machine learning and reinforcement learning algorithms which identify patterns of energy use with high precision and helps to reduce the energy usage in smart buildings by 25-30%. For transportation, AI-enabled traffic infrastructure reduced carbon emissions by 20% and enhanced EV infrastructure efficiency by 18%. The smart grids were better served by predictive energy distribution, which allowed for a 15% decrease in losses and a 20% rise in the use of renewable energy. All of these results point towards the potential of AI-augmented Digital Twins to reshape city planning, optimise resource consumption and play a key role in achieving global sustainability targets. This research underscores the need to embrace high-tech solutions for the next smart city projects to combat climate change and promote sustainable development.

Advancing Principal Component Analysis: Challenges and Innovations in Big Data Analysis
Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is one of the most widely used dimensionality reduction methods in data analysis, which is renowned for its ability to handle the underlying structure of datasets. However, in the era of big data, characterized by high-dimensional, large-scale, noisy, and dynamic datasets, traditional PCA faces significant limitations.

Article thumbnail
This paper proposes an enhanced Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) based forecasting model explicitly designed for functional beverage sales prediction in cross-cultural markets. Traditional forecasting methods often struggle with capturing the complex interplay between cultural factors and sales patterns, leading to suboptimal prediction accuracy in diverse market environments. The proposed model incorporates innovative architectural modifications to the standard LSTM structure, integrating cultural-aware gates and specialized feature engineering techniques to capture market-specific characteristics. The research utilizes comprehensive sales data from six major markets across North America, Asia, and Europe from 2019 to 2023. The enhanced model demonstrates superior performance with a 28.4% improvement in prediction accuracy compared to traditional methods, achieving an average RMSE of 0.134 across all tested markets. The model's effectiveness is particularly evident in markets with high cultural diversity, where it achieved a 31.5% reduction in prediction error compared to conventional approaches. The research findings establish that cultural dimensions account for approximately 37.5% of sales variation across markets, highlighting the critical importance of cultural feature integration in sales forecasting. The practical implementation of the model resulted in a 23.7% reduction in inventory holding costs and improved resource allocation efficiency. This research contributes to the theoretical understanding of cross-cultural market dynamics and practical applications in global business operations.
