Abstract Fraud detection for credit/debit card, loan defaulters and similar types is achievable with the assistance of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms as they are well capable of learning from previous fraud trends or historical data and spot them in current or future transactions. Fraudulent cases are scant in the comparison of non-fraudulent observations, almost in all the datasets. In such cases detecting fraudulent transaction are quite difficult. The most effective way to prevent loan default is to identify non-performing loans as soon as possible. Machine learning algorithms are coming into sight as adept at handling such data with enough computing influence.… More >

Abstract This paper presents an efficient prediction model for a good learning environment using Random Forest (RF) classifier. It consists of a series of modules; data preprocessing, data normalization, data split and finally classification or prediction by the RF classifier. The preprocessed data is normalized using min-max normalization often used before model fitting. As the input data or variables are measured at different scales, it is necessary to normalize them to contribute equally to the model fitting. Then, the RF classifier is employed for course selection which is an ensemble learning method and k-fold cross-validation (k = 10) is used to validate the… More >

Abstract Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a medical imaging technology that can measure the electrical activity of the scalp produced by the brain, measured and recorded chronologically the surface of the scalp from the brain. The recorded signals from the brain are rich with useful information. The inference of this useful information is a challenging task. This paper aims to process the EEG signals for the recognition of human emotions specifically happiness, anger, fear, sadness, and surprise in response to audiovisual stimuli. The EEG signals are recorded by placing neurosky mindwave headset on the subject’s scalp, in response to audiovisual stimuli for the… More >

Abstract In contemporary medicine, cardiovascular disease is a major public health concern. Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. They are classified as vascular, ischemic, or hypertensive. Clinical information contained in patients’ Electronic Health Records (EHR) enables clinicians to identify and monitor heart illness. Heart failure rates have risen dramatically in recent years as a result of changes in modern lifestyles. Heart diseases are becoming more prevalent in today’s medical setting. Each year, a substantial number of people die as a result of cardiac pain. The primary cause of these deaths is the improper use of pharmaceuticals… More >

Abstract Objectives: The ERα biological activity prediction model is constructed by the compound molecular data of the anti-breast cancer therapeutic target ERα and its biological activity data, which improves the screening efficiency of anti-breast cancer drug candidates and saves the time and cost of drug development. Methods: In this paper, Ridge model is used to screen out molecular descriptors with a high degree of influence on the biological activity of Erα and divide datasets with different numbers of the molecular descriptors by screening results. Random Forest (RF) is trained by Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and Coefficient of determination (R²) to… More >

Abstract Water quality analysis is essential to understand the ecological status of aquatic life. Conventional water quality index (WQI) assessment methods are limited to features such as water acidic or basicity (pH), dissolved oxygen (DO), biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammoniacal nitrogen (NH₃-N), and suspended solids (SS). These features are often insufficient to represent the water quality of a heavy metal–polluted river. Therefore, this paper aims to explore and analyze novel input features in order to formulate an improved WQI. In this work, prospective insights on the feasibility of alternative water quality input variables as new discriminant features… More >

Abstract The agricultural sector’s day-to-day operations, such as irrigation and sowing, are impacted by the weather. Therefore, weather constitutes a key role in all regular human activities. Weather forecasting must be accurate and precise to plan our activities and safeguard ourselves as well as our property from disasters. Rainfall, wind speed, humidity, wind direction, cloud, temperature, and other weather forecasting variables are used in this work for weather prediction. Many research works have been conducted on weather forecasting. The drawbacks of existing approaches are that they are less effective, inaccurate, and time-consuming. To overcome these issues, this paper proposes an enhanced… More >

Abstract As an important maritime hub, Bohai Sea Bay provides great convenience for shipping and suffers from sea ice disasters of different severity every winter, which greatly affects the socio-economic and development of the region. Therefore, this paper uses FY-4A (a weather satellite) data to study sea ice in the Bohai Sea. After processing the data for land removal and cloud detection, it combines multi-channel threshold method and adaptive threshold algorithm to realize the recognition of Bohai Sea ice under clear sky conditions. The random forests classification algorithm is introduced in sea ice identification, which can achieve a certain effect of… More >

Abstract Energy management benefits both consumers and utility companies alike. Utility companies remain interested in identifying and reducing energy waste and theft, whereas consumers’ interest remain in lowering their energy expenses. A large supply-demand gap of over 6 GW exists in Pakistan as reported in 2018. Reducing this gap from the supply side is an expensive and complex task. However, efficient energy management and distribution on demand side has potential to reduce this gap economically. Electricity load forecasting models are increasingly used by energy managers in taking real-time tactical decisions to ensure efficient use of resources. Advancement in Machine-learning (ML) technology… More >

Abstract Software Defined Networking (SDN) has emerged as a promising and exciting option for the future growth of the internet. SDN has increased the flexibility and transparency of the managed, centralized, and controlled network. On the other hand, these advantages create a more vulnerable environment with substantial risks, culminating in network difficulties, system paralysis, online banking frauds, and robberies. These issues have a significant detrimental impact on organizations, enterprises, and even economies. Accuracy, high performance, and real-time systems are necessary to achieve this goal. Using a SDN to extend intelligent machine learning methodologies in an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) has stimulated… More >
