After incorporating AI technology, traditional logistics companies have seen significant improvements in transportation efficiency and reductions in transportation costs, especially in the transfer of medical materials which involves timely service and rights of hospitals and patients The implementation of intelligent logistics can save medical material businesses the cost of constructing GDP warehouses and other expenses up to millions A major domestic logistics leader, Hsinchu Transport HCT, owns a fleet of 3,500 vehicles and a storage area of 60,000 square meters, providing customized logistics solutions including logistics, commerce, finance, information, distribution, storage, and processing The company handles up to 580,000 parcels per day, with a maximum capacity reaching 900,000 parcels, making the enhancement of transshipment efficiency crucial for HCT Medical materials transportation at hospitals need optimization of current operational processes and enhancements in systematization and intelligence Especially the transportation of hospital medical materials, which encounters various challenges Medical materials suppliers need to cater to varying customer product demands, temperature requirements, and delivery times through multiple logistics providers This highly depends on the experience and careful control of operations staff Whether it is the product shipment or actual logistics process, each step must be interconnected Any human errors can impact the service timing and rights of the hospitals and patients Thus, all concerned businesses, along with the government and hospitals, are working to optimize current operational processes and elevate the level of systematization, automation, and intelligence to minimize service errors and cost losses HCT's distribution process prior to AI implementation Currently, with the government's push for standardized platform operations on the demand side of hospitals, supply-side businesses collaborate through data coordination to improve the accuracy and efficiency of product shipments, enhancing operational quality and management benefits at the demand side At the same time, some businesses are also investing in the standardization and systematization of internal operational processes, thus enhancing operational efficiency and quality In the freight logistics sector, logistics companies' warehouse staff need to expend labor to control different logistics shipment operations If they often receive emergency task notifications for shipments to medical facilities, they usually depend on small regional logistics providers to provide customized delivery services Although this improves delivery times, it does not allow for integrated informational services The new GDP regulations for medical materials require suppliers to undergo GDP compliance certification Therefore, Hsinchu Transport, assisted by the Ministry of Economic Affairs' AI coaching program, not only extends existing logistics services compliant with GDP regulations but will also use data integration and optimized AI technologies to help medical material businesses streamline and improve their logistics operations Complex logistics issues are solved using the Simulated Annealing SA algorithm To meet the 'Good Distribution Practices for Medical Devices,' Hsinchu Transport is not only actively introducing new logistics vehicles but will also implement artificial intelligence-based mathematical optimization technologies to assist in intelligent scheduling at nationwide business points and transshipment stations They aim to optimize the routing of medical materials between business points or regions thereby enhancing efficiency in the distribution process Currently, during the transshipment process of medical materials at Hsinchu Transport, detachable tractor heads and containers are used Each business point and transshipment station differ in location design and staffing, impacting the throughput per unit of time Furthermore, daily cargo conditions size, destination vary, and due to these fluctuating and distinct demands, the deployment of tractor heads and containers changes accordingly Under these circumstances, Hsinchu Transport relies on past experiences to schedule departures at each satellite depot and adjusts daily according to the cargo needs Due to the reliance on empirical scheduling, it is often difficult to consider all variables and considerations, leaving room for improvement in the current departure schedules The cargo delivery planning inherently constitutes an NP-Hard problem, difficult to solve with traditional analytical methods Hsinchu Transport, in collaboration with Singular Infinity, utilizes the Simulated Annealing SA algorithm to find solutions The new logistic service introduced by Hsinchu Transport is 'GDP Container Shift Planning' This planning involves estimating future volumes of medical materials between stations and scheduling container truck shifts accordingly, ensuring timely and quality delivery of medical materials while maximizing operational benefits and reducing travel distances Hsinchu Transport introduces AI-optimized shift planning, constructing the most efficient route from its origin to destination Hsinchu Transport introduces 'Optimized Shift Planning' service, reducing transportation costs by 5 The introduction method involves using cloud software services Hsinchu Transport regularly inputs 'Interchange Item Tables' from station to station into the 'Optimized Shift Planning' service After setting the algorithm parameters, a GDP container shift schedule is generated At the same time, developing a Hsinchu Transport medical material scheduling system allows Hsinchu Transport's medical transport units to compile suitable schedules through the Interchange Item Tables Under the same level of service, it's estimated that this can reduce transportation costs by 5, saving medical material businesses millions in construction costs for GDP warehouses and distribution Due to its requirements for sanitation, temperature, and its fragility, the transportation and transshipment of medical materials should be minimized to reduce exposure and risk However, logistics efficiency and costs must still be considered AI designs the most efficient route for each cargo from its origin to destination, effectively completing daily transportation tasks In response to the future high development demand of industrial logistics, distribution and transshipment AI optimization will be a key issue Through this project, a dedicated project promotion organization will be established, staffed with AI technology, IT, and process domain talents After accumulating implementation experience, the application of AI will gradually expand, comprehensively optimizing and transforming Hsinchu Transport's operational system, and partnering with AIOT and various AI domain partners to accelerate and expand the achievement of benefits「Translated content is generated by ChatGPT and is for reference only Translation date：2024-05-19」

With the increase in the elderly population, the incidence of various chronic diseases is rising daily Among these, heart failure is not only a silent killer it has a very long disease course with a high recurrence rate, leading to increased burden on healthcare personnel However, by using medically certified electrocardiography acoustics devices, coupled with AI predictive assessment of heart failure risk and remote care systems, diagnosis can be aided significantly, helping doctors make accurate diagnoses for subsequent patient medical care or referrals Heart failure has a lengthy course and medical expenditure is five times that of diabetes If you find yourself short of breath even with minimal movement, or if you wake up from sleep needing to sit up to feel comfortable, or if you have symptoms such as swollen lower limbs, anxiety, restlessness, fatigue, or a loss of appetite, be cautious These could be signs of heart failure According to statistics, there are about 60 million people with heart failure worldwide, with 5 million new cases every year In China, nearly 290 million people suffer from cardiovascular diseases, accounting for the second leading cause of death among urban residents around 12 million of these are heart failure patients, accounting for over 59 of cardiac-related deaths The disease course of heart failure is exceptionally long, and both its recurrence and rehospitalization rates are exceedingly high, resulting in medical costs that are twice that of hypertension and five times those of diabetes According to US research statistics, the 30-day mortality rates for patients with myocardial infarction and heart failure are respectively 166 and 111, and the rehospitalization rates within 30 days are 199 and 244 The symptoms of heart failure, because they are similar to those of other diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma, have an 185 misdiagnosis rate, which poses a challenging problem for healthcare institutions Leadtek, a major graphics card manufacturer, has been investing in the medical and healthcare sector since 2000 Following two heart attacks in 2011 and 2015 experienced by Chairman Lu Kunshan, Leadtek has focused on health big data, independently developing AI technology for heart failure recognition This AI application reads patients' electrocardiograms and phonocardiograms to perform anomaly detection and model prediction of heart failure risk, enabling early detection of disease symptoms Leadtek independently developed heart failure AI recognition technology to predict medical history and risk Leadtek's independently developed heart failure AI recognition technology has the following three judgment functions 1 Prediction of heart failure history Classifies electrocardiogram and phonocardiogram data into 'with hospitalization history of heart failure' and 'no history of heart failure' 2 Risk prediction of heart failure Provides a predictive risk value of heart failure occurrence based on the electrocardiogram and phonocardiogram data 3 Prediction of heart failure recurrence risk For patients with heart failure, it reads their phonocardiogram and electrocardiogram data, assessing the risk prediction of heart failure recurrence Leadtek states that the application of heart failure AI recognition technology can assist doctors in making more efficient and accurate diagnoses, facilitating subsequent medical treatment or referrals for patients As an instance, in studies of heart failure patients discharged from Taipei Veterans General Hospital, using the EMAT Electromechanical Activation Time index and SDI Systolic Dysfunction Index calculated by the synchronized electrocardiography-acoustic device as treatment guidelines resulted in a higher survival rate compared to those treated based on traditional symptoms This research has also been published in the authoritative international cardiology journal JACC, receiving recognition in the international market System manufacturers can apply heart failure AI recognition technology for other value-added applications Leadtek states that cooperating system manufacturers can choose to build their own heart failure AI risk prediction engine, uploading their system's electrocardiogram and phonocardiogram data to Leadtek's heart failure AI risk prediction engine, which then returns risk prediction values for integration by system manufacturers cooperating manufacturers as a value-added application input Not just for clinical use, the heart failure AI risk prediction engine can also be extended for use at home or in the workplace Additionally, this system can be extended to other applications, including One, hospital outpatient screening Doctors can use the
