• Abstract: Mussel farming is one of the most important aquaculture industries. The main risk to mussel farming is harmful algal blooms (HABs), which pose a risk to human consumption. In Galicia, the Spanish main producer of cultivated mussels, the opening and closing of the production areas is controlled by a monitoring program. In addition to the closures resulting from the presence of toxicity exceeding the legal threshold, in the absence of a confirmatory sampling and the existence of risk factors, precautionary closures may be applied. These decisions are made by experts without the support or formalisation of the experience on which they are based. Therefore, this work proposes a predictive model capable of supporting the application of precautionary closures. Achieving sensitivity, accuracy and kappa index values of 97.34%, 91.83% and 0.75 respectively, the kNN algorithm has provided the best results. This allows the creation of a system capable of helping in complex situations where forecast errors are more common.

  We train and evaluate machine learning models to accurately predict diarrhetic shellfish poisoning events. The random forest model provided the best prediction of positive toxicity results based on the F1 score. Key species (Dinophysis fortii and D. caudata) and environmental factors (salinity, river discharge and precipitation) were the best predictors of DSP outbreaks.

• ABCD: Trust enhanced Attention based Convolutional Autoencoder for Risk Assessment [0.0]
  Anomaly detection in industrial systems is crucial for preventing equipment failures, ensuring risk identification, and maintaining overall system efficiency. Traditional monitoring methods often rely on fixed thresholds and empirical rules, which may not be sensitive enough to detect subtle changes in system health and predict impending failures. This paper proposes Attention-based convolutional autoencoder (ABCD) for risk detection and map the risk value derive to the maintenance planning. ABCD learns the normal behavior of conductivity from historical data of a real-world industrial cooling system and reconstructs the input data, identifying anomalies that deviate from the expected patterns.

  We propose a Task-Driven Causal Feature Distillation model (TDCFD) to transform original feature values into causal feature attributions. After the causal feature distillation, a deep neural network is applied to produce trustworthy prediction results.

  We consider a sequential decision making task where we are not allowed to evaluate parameters that violate an unknown (safety) constraint. Most current methods rely on a discretization of the domain and cannot be directly extended to the continuous case. We propose an information-theoretic safe exploration criterion that directly exploits the GP posterior to identify the most informative safe parameters to evaluate.

  Since the average treatment effect measures the change in social welfare, even if positive, there is a risk of negative effect on, say, some 10% of the population. In this paper we consider how to nonetheless assess this important risk measure, formalized as the conditional value at risk (CVaR) of the ITE distribution. Some bounds can also be interpreted as summarizing a complex CATE function into a single metric and are of interest independently of being a bound.
