  • Agile Systems Engineering with SysML v2 and AI

    • 2nd Edition
    • Bruce Powel Douglass
    • English
    Agile Systems Engineering, Second Edition presents a vision of systems engineering where precise specification of requirements, structure, and behavior meet larger concerns as such as safety, security, reliability, and performance in an agile engineering context. World-renowned author and speaker Dr. Bruce Powel Douglass incorporates agile methods and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) to define the properties of entire systems while avoiding errors that can occur when using traditional textual specifications. Dr. Douglass covers the lifecycle of systems development, including requirements, analysis, design, and the handoff to specific engineering disciplines. In addition to agile SE, the workflows and practices of Model-Driven Dev Sec Ops (MDDSO) will be introduced and discussed. In the new Second Edition, all the examples and discussion use SysML v2 and are rendered in the Cameo System Modeler tool. Throughout the book, Dr. Douglass couples agile methods with SysML and MBSE to arm system engineers with the conceptual and methodological tools they need to avoid specification defects and improve system quality while simultaneously reducing the effort and cost of systems engineering.

  • Advances in Multimodal Large Language Models for Healthcare

    • 1st Edition
    • Hari Mohan Pandey + 4 more
    • English
    Advances in Multimodal Large Language Models for Healthcare: Methods and Applications provides valuable insights on Large Language Models in healthcare applications for researchers, academics, and practitioners. The book explains key concepts, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, and the evolution of neural networks and transformer models. It then covers generative AI and LLMs for a wide spectrum of healthcare applications, including mental health, clinical decision support, interactive system design, and sensitive analysis. Readers will find this to be a valuable deep dive into the emergent intersection of LLMs and health care, with guidance into applications, technical and programming methods, and more.Although LLMs have shown some promising results in the healthcare sector, numerous challenges need to be addressed before they can be used in patient care. The two key issues with the adoption of LLMs regarding healthcare settings are reliability, transparency, interpretation of results and bias (data and algorithm) management. Unless properly and adequately validated, there may be incorrect medical information provided by the LLM-based systems, which can lead to misdiagnosis or hazardous treatment errors. At this point, LLMs have not only been used for decision making or documentation, they have also proven to be useful in patient engagement through QA systems, medical chatbots, and virtual healthcare.

    • Manuel González Canché
    • English
    Data Science and Interactive Visualization Tools for the Analysis of Qualitative Evidence empowers qualitative and mixed methods researchers in the data science movement by offering no-code, cost-free software access so that they can apply cutting-edge and innovative methods to synthetize qualitative data. The book builds on the idea that qualitative and mixed methods researchers should not have to learn to code to benefit from rigorous open-source, cost-free software that uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data visualization tools—just as people do not need to know C++ or TypeScript to benefit from Microsoft Word. The real barrier is the hundreds of R code lines required to apply these concepts to their databases. By removing the coding proficiency hurdle, this book will empower their research endeavors and help them become active members of and contributors to the applied data science community. The book offers a comprehensive explanation of data science and machine learning methodologies, along with access to software application tools to implement these techniques without any coding proficiency. The book addresses the need for innovative tools that enable researchers to tap into the insights that come out of cutting-edge data science tools with absolutely no computer language literacy requirements.
