Promising algorithms to perilous applications: a systematic review of risk stratification tools for predicting healthcare utilisation by Hutan Ashrafian, Jessica Morley, Joe Zhang, Christopher Oddy

“…No association between validation context and model discrimination was observed. The majority of real-world evaluation studies reported no change, or indeed significant increases, in healthcare utilisation within targeted groups, with only one-third of reports demonstrating some benefit.Discussion While model discrimination appears satisfactorily robust to application context there is little evidence to suggest that accurate identification of high-risk individuals can be reliably translated to improvements in service delivery or morbidity.Conclusions The evidence does not support further integration of care pathways with costly population-level interventions based on risk prediction in unselected primary care cohorts. …”

Research on encrypted malicious traffic detection in power information interaction: application of the electricity multi-granularity flow representation learning approach by Zhifu Wu, Xianfu Zhou, Xindai Lu, Liqiang Yang, Siqi Shen, Dong Yan

“…However, this trend also creates potential covert channels for malicious traffic, making the detection of encrypted malicious traffic a critical challenge. Current detection methods often struggle to capture both fine-grained semantic interactions during the TLS handshake and global temporal patterns in traffic behavior, particularly in domain-specific contexts like power systems. …”
