A Calibrated Multi-Task Ensemble Architecture for Biomedical Risk Prediction Zhainagul Khamitova, Gulmira Omarova, Madi Akhmetzhanov, Roza Burganova, Maksym Orynbassar, et al. Computers, 2026 Risk stratification of impaired glycemic control remains a major challenge in biomedical data analysis due to heterogeneous metabolic, behavioral, and therapeutic factors observed in large-scale populations. This study proposes a calibrated and interpretable decision–support framework, termed Calibrated Multi-Task Stacking Ensemble (CMSE), for joint modeling of clinically related glycemic outcomes. The framework integrates demographic variables, lipid profiles, renal and inflammatory biomarkers, dietary and smoking indicators, and therapy-related features within a unified predictive architecture. Robust modeling is ensured through leakage-aware preprocessing, quantile-based Winsorization, out-of-fold stacking, and isotonic calibration of probabilistic outputs. The physiological coherence between short-term and long-term glycemic markers is investigated using an explicit intertask coupling mechanism based on the estimated average glucose (eAG) ratio. Model interpretability is supported using SHAP analysis, mutual information, distance correlation, and feature importance metrics. In the primary medication-free screening configuration, the framework is evaluated on the NHANES 2017–March 2020 dataset, achieving ROC-AUC of 0.865 for diabetes classification and R2 values of 0.385 and 0.366 for plasma glucose and HbA1c prediction, respectively. These results indicate that CMSE provides a reliable and explainable approach for calibrated glycemic risk assessment and clinical decision support.
A Hybrid CNN–GRU–LSTM Algorithm with SHAP-Based Interpretability for EEG-Based ADHD Diagnosis Makbal Baibulova, Murat Aitimov, Roza Burganova, Lazzat Abdykerimova, Umida Sabirova, et al. Algorithms, 2025 This study proposes an interpretable hybrid deep learning framework for classifying attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) using EEG signals recorded during cognitively demanding tasks. The core architecture integrates convolutional neural networks (CNNs), gated recurrent units (GRUs), and long short-term memory (LSTM) layers to jointly capture spatial and temporal dynamics. In addition to the final hybrid architecture, the CNN–GRU–LSTM model alone demonstrates excellent accuracy (99.63%) with minimal variance, making it a strong baseline for clinical applications. To evaluate the role of global attention mechanisms, transformer encoder models with two and three attention blocks, along with a spatiotemporal transformer employing 2D positional encoding, are benchmarked. A hybrid CNN–RNN–transformer model is introduced, combining convolutional, recurrent, and transformer-based modules into a unified architecture. To enhance interpretability, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) are employed to identify key EEG channels contributing to classification outcomes. Experimental evaluation using stratified five-fold cross-validation demonstrates that the proposed hybrid model achieves superior performance, with average accuracy exceeding 99.98%, F1-scores above 0.9999, and near-perfect AUC and Matthews correlation coefficients. In contrast, transformer-only models, despite high training accuracy, exhibit reduced generalization. SHAP-based analysis confirms the hybrid model’s clinical relevance. This work advances the development of transparent and reliable EEG-based tools for pediatric ADHD screening.
