Abstract In the present work, a novel machine learning computational investigation is carried out to accurately predict the solubility of different acids in supercritical carbon dioxide. Four different machine learning algorithms of radial basis function, multi-layer perceptron (MLP), artificial neural networks (ANN), least squares support vector machine (LSSVM) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) are used to model the solubility of different acids in carbon dioxide based on the temperature, pressure, hydrogen number, carbon number, molecular weight, and the dissociation constant of acid. To evaluate the proposed models, different graphical and statistical analyses, along with novel More >

Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a new intravascular imaging technique with high resolution and could provide accurate morphological infor￾mation for plaques in coronary arteries. However, its segmentation is still com￾monly performed manually by experts which is time-consuming. The aim of this study was to develop automatic techniques to characterize plaque components and quantify plaque cap thickness using 3 machine learning methods including convolutional neural network (CNN) with U-Net architecture, CNN with Fully convolutional DenseNet (FC-DenseNet) architecture and support vector machine (SVM). In vivo OCT and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) images were acquired from two patients at Emory… More >

Abstract Aiming at the defects of the traditional fire detection methods, which are caused by false positives and false negatives in large space buildings, a fire identification detection method based on video images is proposed. The algorithm first uses the hybrid Gaussian background modeling method and the RGB color model to perform fire prejudgment on the video image, which can eliminate most non-fire interferences. Secondly, the traditional regional growth algorithm is improved and the fire image segmentation effect is effectively improved. Then, based on the segmented image, the dynamic and static features of the fire flame More >

Abstract Mining aeroengine operational data and developing fault diagnosis models for aeroengines are to avoid running aeroengines under undesired conditions. Because of the complexity of working environment and faults of aeroengines, it is unavoidable that the monitored parameters vary widely and possess larger noise levels. This paper reports the extrapolation of a diagnosis model for 20 gas path faults of a double-spool turbofan civil aeroengine. By applying support vector machine (SVM) algorithm together with genetic algorithm (GA), the fault diagnosis model is obtained from the training set that was based on the deviations of the monitored More >

Abstract Using Support Vector Machine (SVM) requires the selection of several parameters such as multi-class strategy type (one-against-all or one-against-one), the regularization parameter C, kernel function and their parameters. The choice of these parameters has a great influence on the performance of the final classifier. This paper considers the grid search method and the particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique that have allowed to quickly select and scan a large space of SVM parameters. A comparative study of the SVM models is also presented to examine the convergence speed and the results of each model. SVM is More >

Abstract Cardiovascular diseases are closely associated with deteriorating atherosclerotic plaques. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a recently developed intravascular imaging technique with high resolution approximately 10 microns and could provide accurate quantification of coronary plaque morphology. However, tissue segmentation of OCT images in clinic is still mainly performed manually by physicians which is time consuming and subjective. To overcome these limitations, two automatic segmentation methods for intracoronary OCT image based on support vector machine (SVM) and convolutional neural network (CNN) were performed to identify the plaque region and characterize plaque components. In vivo IVUS and OCT… More >

Abstract Cardiovascular diseases are closely associated with sudden rupture of atherosclerotic plaques. Previous image modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) were unable to identify vulnerable plaques due to their limited resolution. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an advanced intravascular imaging technique developed in recent years which has high resolution approximately 10 microns and could provide more accurate morphology of coronary plaque. In particular, it is now possible to identify plaques with fibrous cap thickness <65 μm, an accepted threshold value for vulnerable plaques. However, the current segmentation of OCT images are… More >

Abstract The main target of this paper is presentation of an efficient method for MRI images classification so that it can be used to diagnose patients and non-patients. Image classification is one of the prominent subset topics of machine learning and data mining that the most important image technique is the auto-categorization of images. MRI images with high resolution and appropriate accuracy allow physicians to decide on the diagnosis of various diseases and treat them. The auto categorization of MRI images toward diagnosing brain diseases has been being used to accurately diagnose hospitals, clinics, physicians and… More >

Abstract High-density street-level reliable landmarks are one of the important foundations for street-level geolocation. However, the existing methods cannot obtain enough street-level landmarks in a short period of time. In this paper, a street-level landmarks acquisition method based on SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifiers is proposed. Firstly, the port detection results of IPs with known services are vectorized, and the vectorization results are used as an input of the SVM training. Then, the kernel function and penalty factor are adjusted for SVM classifiers training, and the optimal SVM classifiers are obtained. After that, the classifier sequence More >
