The authors looked at the primary structure of lignin peroxidase in an attempt to identify mutations that would improve both the stability and solubility of the peroxidase protein. The goal is to engineer peroxidase enzymes that are stable to help break down polymers, such as PVC, into monomers that can be reused instead of going to landfills.

The authors looked the ability of sound sensors to predict clogged pipes when the sound intensity data is run through a machine learning algorithm.
Read More...Cardiovascular Disease Prediction Using Supervised Ensemble Machine Learning and Shapley Values
The authors test the effectiveness of machine learning to predict onset of cardiovascular disease.
Read More...Predicting and explaining illicit financial flows in developing countries: A machine learning approach
The authors looked at the ability of different machine learning algorithms to predict the level of financial corruption in different countries.
Read More...Evaluating the feasibility of SMILES-based autoencoders for drug discovery
The authors investigate the ability of machine learning models to developing new drug-like molecules by learning desired chemical properties versus simply generating molecules that similar to those in the training set.
Read More...Convolutional neural network-based analysis of pediatric chest X-ray images for pneumonia detection
The authors test various machine learning models to improve the accuracy and efficiency of pneumonia diagnosis from X-ray images.
Read More...Predicting baseball pitcher efficacy using physical pitch characteristics
Here, the authors sought to develop a new metric to evaluate the efficacy of baseball pitchers using machine learning models. They found that the frequency of balls, was the most predictive feature for their walks/hits allowed per inning (WHIP) metric. While their machine learning models did not identify a defining trait, such as high velocity, spin rate, or types of pitches, they found that consistently pitching within the strike zone resulted in significantly lower WHIPs.
