Summary: This study extended the multiobjective approach-based multifactor dimensionality reduction (MOMDR) to the many-objective version (MaODR) to improve the identification of single-nucleotide polymorphism-single-nucleotide polymorphism interactions (SSIs) between cases and controls. An objective function selection approach was introduced to determine the optimal measure combination in MaODR among 10 well-known measures. The results showed that the MaODR-CLN model exhibited higher detection success rates in identifying SSIs with weak marginal effects.

Summary: This study extended MOMDR to the many-objective version (MaODR) for better identification of SSI between cases and controls. The MaODR-CLN model, with three objective functions - correct classification rate, likelihood ratio, and normalized mutual information, showed higher detection success rates compared to MOMDR and MDR. MaODR-CLN successfully identified significant SSIs associated with coronary artery disease.

Summary: Research has shown that considering the convexity-concavity of Pareto fronts can improve the performance of multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs). Based on this advantage, we propose a many-objective evolutionary algorithm, MaOEA-3C, which estimates the convexity-concavity of the Pareto fronts and incorporates clustering. The algorithm updates an elitist archive using non-dominated sorting and a niche-based method to estimate the convexity-concavity of the Pareto fronts and guides the evolving directions of the current population using clustering. The performance of MaOEA-3C is compared with seven state-of-the-art algorithms and demonstrates its effectiveness and competitiveness in many-objective optimization problems.

Summary: Bone mineral density (BMD) is a crucial indicator of osteoporosis, usually measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Limited access to DEXA machines and examinations leads to under-diagnosis and under-treatment of osteoporosis. By using a self-training algorithm and pseudo BMD derivation from unlabeled images, BMD regression estimation from plain X-ray images can be achieved, offering a cost-effective and accessible screening method for osteoporosis.

The framework includes a tailored loss function to remove suspected noisy-label instances and a ramp-style loss function to reduce the negative impact of remaining noisy labels. In addition, a dynamic screening strategy (DSS) is developed to efficiently handle the nonconvexity of the ramp-style loss.

Summary: This paper proposes an enhanced scatter search strategy, using opposition-based learning, to solve the problem of automated test case generation based on path coverage (ATCG-PC). The proposed ESSENT algorithm selects the path with the lowest path entropy among the uncovered paths as the target path and generates new test cases to cover the target path by modifying the dimensions of existing test cases. Experimental results show that the ESSENT algorithm outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms, achieving maximum path coverage with fewer test cases.

Summary: Linking digital accounts belonging to the same user is crucial for security, user satisfaction, and next-generation service development. However, research on account linkage is mainly focused on social networks, and there is a lack of studies in other domains. To address this, we propose SmartSSO, a framework that automates the account linkage process by analyzing user routines and behavior during login processes. Our experiments on a large dataset show that SmartSSO achieves over 98% accuracy in hit-precision.
