The presented research faces the problem of early detection of sepsis for patients in the Intensive Care Unit. The PhysioNet/Computing in Cardiology Challenge 2019 facilitated the development of automated, open-source algorithms for the early detection of sepsis from clinical data. A labeled clinical records dataset for training and verification of the algorithms was provided by the challenge organizers. However, a relatively small number of records with sepsis, supported by Sepsis-3 clinical criteria, led to highly unbalanced dataset (only 2% records with sepsis label). A high number of unbalanced data records is a great challenge for machine learning model training and is not suitable for training classical classifiers. To address these issues, a method taking into the account the amount of time the patients spent in the intensive care unit (ICU) was proposed. The proposed method uses two separate ensemble models, one trained on patient records under 56 h in the ICU, and another for patients who stayed longer than 56 h. A solution including feature selection and weighting based training on imbalanced data was proposed in this paper. In addition, several performance metrics were investigated. Results show, that for successful prediction, a particular model having few or more predictors based on the length of stay in the Intensive Care Unit should be applied.

This paper aim is to present the deep learning model comparison for swimming style recognition using publicly available sensor data and provide a comparison of Uni-directional LSTM(Long-Short Term Memory) and Bi-directional LSTM. Both neural networks were constructed using MATLAB neural network toolbox. Data for the neural networks was prepared by segmenting data into fixed size windows with overlap. To reduce the computational cost five features from time domain signal were extracted: Signal Magnitude Area (SMA), median absolute deviation (MAD), interquartile range (IQR), mean and standart deviation. And five features from frequency domain signal: entropy, energy, kurtosis, skewness and index of frequency domain signal. These features were extracted from every window. The Uni-directional LSTM was able to perform with F1-score of 87.66 % and Bi-directional LSTM with F1-score of 90.35 %.
