Multiyear microgrid data from a research building in Tsukuba, Japan.

ABSTRACT: Microgrids comprising renewable energy technologies are often modelled and optimised from a theoretical point of view. Verification of theoretical systems with data of actually implemented systems in the field rarely occurs in an open manner, especially on the intermediate scale of research buildings. To enable modelling of the actual microgrid performance of a research environment, we present a multiyear dataset of a microgrid with solar arrays and a battery. The main energy datasets comprise data per second supplemented by hourly solar irradiation data. These may be combined with data concerning the hourly electricity prices from the main grid and the low-electricity-price periods of national holidays. The level of detail of the data per second in combination with the hourly data in these datasets allows for a comparison to the efficiency and weather-parameter correlation of other renewable energy technologies, as well as forecasting future energy generation and consumption.

Building Meaningful Patient Engagement in Research: Case Study From ADVANCE Clinical Data Research Network.

Project description:BackgroundStrategies to engage patients to improve and enhance research and clinical care are increasingly being implemented in the United States, yet little is known about best practices for or the impacts of meaningful patient engagement.ObjectiveWe describe and reflect on our patient stakeholder groups, engagement framework, experiences, and lessons learned in engaging patients in research, from generating proposal ideas to disseminating findings.SettingThe ADVANCE (Accelerating Data Value Across a National Community Health Center Network) clinical data research network is the nation's largest clinical dataset on the safety net, with outpatient clinical data from 122 health systems (1109 clinics) in 23 states.ResultsPatients stakeholders codeveloped the ADVANCE engagement framework and its implementation in partnership with network leaders. In phase I of ADVANCE, patients were involved with designing studies (input on primary outcome measures and methods) and usability testing (of the patient portal). In phase II, the network is prioritizing research training, dissemination opportunities, an "ambassador" program to pair more experienced patient stakeholders with those less experienced, and evaluation of engagement activities and impacts.DiscussionThe ADVANCE framework for patient engagement has successfully involved a diverse group of patients in the design, implementation, and interpretation of comparative effectiveness research. Our experience and framework can be used by other organizations and research networks to support patient engagement activities.

Method for converting CWEEDs weather files to EPW format for multiyear simulation of building thermal dynamics.

Project description:This paper outlines a method in converting Historical CWEEDs (Canadian Weather Energy and Engineering Datasets) stored in WY3 format into individual weather files in EPW format so it could be used for Building Energy Simulation (BES). The method outlined is independent of the programming language used, however, a sample MATLAB script is presented to illustrate its feasibility. Highlights of the methodology are as follow:•Key feature in weather converters created under this methodology is the ability to divide multiyear weather data stored in WY3 format (with. wy3 extension) into individual years in EPW format (Standard mode)•And provide ability to extract weather data within a defined time range.

Comparison of predicted psychological distress among workers between artificial intelligence and psychiatrists: a cross-sectional study in Tsukuba Science City, Japan.

Project description:ObjectivesPsychological distress is a worldwide problem and a serious problem that needs to be addressed in the field of occupational health. This study aimed to use artificial intelligence (AI) to predict psychological distress among workers using sociodemographic, lifestyle and sleep factors, not subjective information such as mood and emotion, and to examine the performance of the AI models through a comparison with psychiatrists.DesignCross-sectional study.SettingWe conducted a survey on psychological distress and living conditions among workers. An AI model for predicting psychological distress was created and then the results were compared in terms of accuracy with predictions made by psychiatrists.ParticipantsAn AI model of the neural network and six psychiatrists.Primary outcomeThe accuracies of the AI model and psychiatrists for predicting psychological distress.MethodsIn total, data from 7251 workers were analysed to predict moderate and severe psychological distress. An AI model of the neural network was created and accuracy, sensitivity and specificity were calculated. Six psychiatrists used the same data as the AI model to predict psychological distress and conduct a comparison with the AI model.ResultsThe accuracies of the AI model and psychiatrists for predicting moderate psychological distress were 65.2% and 64.4%, respectively, showing no significant difference. The accuracies of the AI model and psychiatrists for predicting severe psychological distress were 89.9% and 85.5%, respectively, indicating that the AI model had significantly higher accuracy.ConclusionsA machine learning model was successfully developed to screen workers with depressed mood. The explanatory variables used for the predictions did not directly ask about mood. Therefore, this newly developed model appears to be able to predict psychological distress among workers easily, regardless of their subjective views.

Multiyear data on benthic foraminifera in a glaciated fjord of Svalbard.

Project description:Glaciers in the fjords of Svalbard have been receding over last decades. Tempelfjorden, a typical glaciated fjord in West Spitsbergen (78°24'06″ N, 17°02'30″ E), has been sampled in summer 1995 and 2001-2007 for modern benthic foraminifera. We have normalized the abundances and unified the taxonomy of all these published and unpublished data sets and then compiled the record of foraminiferal assemblages changing over years into a comprehensive database. The record includes data on living and dead abundances of benthic foraminiferal species in the surface sediments (0-2 cm) and downcore abundances of living foraminifera (only for 2004). This database portrays benthic foraminifera, this key group of microfossils, in a gradually changing Arctic environment.

Surveillance data confirm multiyear predictions of rotavirus dynamics in New York City.

Project description:Prediction skill is a key test of models for epidemic dynamics. However, future validation of models against out-of-sample data is rare, partly because of a lack of timely surveillance data. We address this gap by analyzing the response of rotavirus dynamics to infant vaccination. Syndromic surveillance of emergency department visits for diarrhea in New York City reveals a marked decline in diarrheal incidence among infants and young children, in line with data on rotavirus-coded hospitalizations and laboratory-confirmed cases, and a shift from annual to biennial epidemics increasingly affecting older children and adults. A published mechanistic model qualitatively predicted these patterns more than 2 years in advance. Future efforts to increase vaccination coverage may disrupt these patterns and lead to further declines in the incidence of rotavirus-attributable gastroenteritis.

Including household effects in Big Data research: the experience of building a longitudinal residence algorithm using linked administrative data in Wales.

Project description:The effect of the wider social-environment on physical and emotional health has long been an area of study. Extrapolating the impact of the individual's immediate environment, such as living with a smoker or caring for a chronically-ill child, would potentially reduce confounding effects in health-related research. Surveys, including the UK Census, are beginning to collect data on household composition. However, these surveys are expensive, time consuming, and, as such, are only completed by a subsection of the population. Large-scale, linked databanks, such as the SAIL Databank at Swansea University, which hold routinely collected secondary use clinical and administrative datasets, are broader in scope, both in terms of the nature of the data held, and the population. The SAIL databank includes demographic data and a geographic indicator that makes it possible to identify groups of people that share accommodation, and in some cases the familial relationships among them. This paper describes a method for creating households, including considerations for how that information can be securely shared for research purposes. This approach has broad implications in Wales and beyond, opening up possibilities for more detailed population-level research that includes consideration of residential social interactions.

The social factors shaping community microgrid operation.

Project description:When extreme weather events result in power blackouts, the critical electricity needs of a community can continue to be met by utilizing localized energy resources. The collective setup of these resources is referred to as a microgrid. Here, we carry out a survey to study the preferences of 1021 US residents on how the finite energy stored in a community microgrid should be rationed amongst various participating households during prolonged blackouts. Particularly, a differentiated service paradigm-where certain consumers can pay more to avail of higher energy quotas-received support from over 91.8% of respondents, despite the zero-sum nature of such rationing. We also report that respondents were receptive to selling between 42-53% of their stored energy to the microgrid should they own personal backup devices-what we call willingness-to-sell-balancing self-preservation and monetary compensation. Studying the factors influencing the responses on the fairness of differentiated service (for consumers) and willingness-to-sell (for storage owners), we identify for policymakers and businesses that an energy-as-a-service model is socially acceptable for community microgrids.
