    Abstract This collection, entitled Digital Health in Focus of Predictive, Preventive and Personalised Medicine contains the proceedings of the second International Conference on Digital Health Technologies (ICDHT 2019). Eighteen recent contributions are presented in the fields of Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning, Internet of Things (IoT), data analysis, optimization and health monitoring, all applied to digital health. This collection enables researchers to learn about recent advances in the above mentioned fields. It brings a technological viewpoint of PPP medicine and points out innovations and new applications. Readers will discover how advanced Information Technology (IT) tools can be used for healthcare. Most contributions are issue from collaborations between computer scientists and actors in the medical field.

    Abstract In the literature on deep neural networks, there is considerable interest in developing activation functions that can enhance neural network performance. In recent years, there has been renewed scientific interest in proposing activation functions that can be trained throughout the learning process, as they appear to improve network performance, especially by reducing overfitting. In this paper, we propose a trainable activation function whose parameters need to be estimated. A fully Bayesian model is developed to automatically estimate from the learning data both the model weights and activation function parameters. An MCMC-based optimization scheme is developed to build the inference. The proposed method aims to solve the aforementioned problems and improve convergence time by using an efficient sampling scheme that guarantees convergence to the global maximum. The proposed scheme has been tested across a diverse datasets, encompassing both classification and regression tasks, and implemented in various CNN architectures to demonstrate its versatility and effectiveness. Promising results demonstrate the usefulness of our proposed approach in improving models accuracy due to the proposed activation function and Bayesian estimation of the parameters.

  3. Artikel ; Online: mid-DeepLabv3+: A Novel Approach for Image Semantic Segmentation Applied to African Food Dietary Assessments.

    Abstract Recent decades have witnessed the development of vision-based dietary assessment (VBDA) systems. These systems generally consist of three main stages: food image analysis, portion estimation, and nutrient derivation. The effectiveness of the initial step is highly dependent on the use of accurate segmentation and image recognition models and the availability of high-quality training datasets. Food image segmentation still faces various challenges, and most existing research focuses mainly on Asian and Western food images. For this reason, this study is based on food images from sub-Saharan Africa, which pose their own problems, such as inter-class similarity and dishes with mixed-class food. This work focuses on the first stage of VBDAs, where we introduce two notable contributions. Firstly, we propose mid-DeepLabv3+, an enhanced food image segmentation model based on DeepLabv3+ with a ResNet50 backbone. Our approach involves adding a middle layer in the decoder path and SimAM after each extracted backbone feature layer. Secondly, we present CamerFood10, the first food image dataset specifically designed for sub-Saharan African food segmentation. It includes 10 classes of the most consumed food items in Cameroon. On our dataset, mid-DeepLabv3+ outperforms benchmark convolutional neural network models for semantic image segmentation, with an mIoU (mean Intersection over Union) of 65.20%, representing a +10.74% improvement over DeepLabv3+ with the same backbone.

    Abstract Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are being widely used in supervised machine learning to analyze signals or images for many applications. Using an annotated learning database, one of the main challenges is to optimize the network weights. A lot of work on solving optimization problems or improving optimization methods in machine learning has been proposed successively such as gradient-based method, Newton-type method, meta-heuristic method. For the sake of efficiency, regularization is generally used. When non-smooth regularizers are used especially to promote sparse networks, such as the

    Abstract During the last few decades, there has existed an increased interest in and considerable consumer preference towards using natural and safe compounds derived from medicinal plants as alternatives to synthetic preservatives to combat microbial pathogenicity. In this regard, the present study investigated the possible synergistic interactions of the anti-foodborne bacterial capacity of linalool (L), eucalyptol (E), and camphor (C). The antibacterial synergistic effect was determined against

    Abstract Covid-19 is neither the first nor the last viral epidemic which societies around the world are, were and will be affected by. Which lessons should be taken from the current pandemic situation? The Covid-19 disease is still not well characterised, and many research teams all over the world are working on prediction of the epidemic scenario, protective measures to populations and sub-populations, therapeutic and vaccination issues, amongst others. Contextually, countries with currently low numbers of Covid-19-infected individuals such as Tunisia are intended to take lessons from those countries which already reached the exponential phase of the infection distribution as well as from those which have the exponential phase behind them and record a minor number of new cases such as China. To this end, in Tunisia, the pandemic wave has started with a significant delay compared with Europe, the main economic partner of the country. In this paper, we do analyse the current pandemic situation in this country by studying the infection evolution and considering potential protective strategies to prevent a pandemic scenario. The model is predictive based on a large number of undetected Covid-19 cases that is particularly true for some country regions such as Sfax. Infection distribution and mortality rate analysis demonstrate a highly heterogeneous picture over the country. Qualitative and quantitative comparative analysis leads to a conclusion that the reliable "real-time" monitoring based on the randomised laboratory tests is the optimal predictive strategy to create the most effective evidence-based preventive measures. In contrast, lack of tests may lead to incorrect political decisions causing either unnecessary over-protection of the population that is risky for a long-term economic recession, or under-protection of the population leading to a post-containment pandemic rebound. Recommendations are provided in the context of advanced predictive, preventive and personalised (3P) medical approach.

    Abstract Bioactive compounds derived from medicinal plants have acquired immense attentiveness in drug discovery and development. The present study investigated in vitro and predicted in silico the antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral properties of thymol and carvacrol, and assessed their safety. The performed microbiological assays against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica Typhimurium revealed that the minimal inhibitory concentration values ranged from (0.078 to 0.312 mg/mL) and the minimal fungicidal concentration against Candida albicans was 0.625 mg/mL. Molecular docking simulations, stipulated that these compounds could inhibit bacterial replication and transcription functions by targeting DNA and RNA polymerases receptors with docking scores varying between (-5.1 to -6.9 kcal/mol). Studied hydroxylated monoterpenes could hinder C. albicans growth by impeding lanosterol 14α-demethylase enzyme and showed a (ΔG=-6.2 and -6.3 kcal/mol). Computational studies revealed that thymol and carvacrol could target the SARS-Cov-2 spike protein of the Omicron variant RBD domain. Molecular dynamics simulations disclosed that these compounds have a stable dynamic behavior over 100 ns as compared to remdesivir. Chemo-computational toxicity prediction using Protox II webserver indicated that thymol and carvacrol could be safely and effectively used as drug candidates to tackle bacterial, fungal, and viral infections as compared to chemical medication.
