Abstract The study aimed to apply to Machine Learning (ML) researchers working in image processing and biomedical analysis who play an extensive role in comprehending and performing on complex medical data, eventually improving patient care. Developing a novel ML algorithm specific to Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a challenge and need of the hour. Biomedical images include several challenges, including relevant feature selection, class variations, and robust classification. Although the current research in DR has yielded favourable results, several research issues need to be explored. There is a requirement to look at novel pre-processing methods to discard irrelevant features, balance the obtained… More >

Abstract The classification of lung nodules is a challenging problem as the visual analysis of the nodules and non-nodules revealed homogenous textural patterns. In this work, an Auxiliary Classifier (AC)-Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) based Lung Cancer Classification (LCC) system is developed. The proposed AC-GAN-LCC system consists of three modules; preprocessing, Lungs Region Detection (LRD), and AC-GAN classification. A Wiener filter is employed in the preprocessing module to remove the Gaussian noise. In the LRD module, only the lung regions (left and right lungs) are detected using iterative thresholding and morphological operations. In order to extract the lung region only, flood filling… More >

Abstract Parkinson’s disease is identified as one of the key neurodegenerative disorders occurring due to the damages present in the central nervous system. The cause of such brain damage seems to be fully explained in many research studies, but the understanding of its functionality remains to be impractical. Specifically, the development of a quantitative disease prediction model has evolved in recent decades. Moreover, accelerometer sensor-based gait analysis is accepted as an important tool for recognizing the walking behavior of the patients during the early prediction and diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease. This type of minimal infrastructure equipment helps in analyzing the Parkinson’s… More >

Abstract Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease that is ranked among the top 10 causes of death by the world health organization. During the last few years, an alarming increase is observed worldwide with a 70% rise in the disease since 2000 and an 80% rise in male deaths. If untreated, it results in complications of many vital organs of the human body which may lead to fatality. Early detection of diabetes is a task of significant importance to start timely treatment. This study introduces a methodology for the classification of diabetic and normal people using an ensemble machine learning model… More >

Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) refers to a neuro-disorder where an individual has long-lasting effects on communication and interaction with others. Advanced information technology which employs artificial intelligence (AI) model has assisted in early identify ASD by using pattern detection. Recent advances of AI models assist in the automated identification and classification of ASD, which helps to reduce the severity of the disease. This study introduces an automated ASD classification using owl search algorithm with machine learning (ASDC-OSAML) model. The proposed ASDC-OSAML model majorly focuses on the identification and classification of ASD. To attain this, the presented ASDC-OSAML model follows min-max… More >

Abstract In defense-in-depth, humans have always been the weakest link in cybersecurity. However, unlike common threats, social engineering poses vulnerabilities not directly quantifiable in penetration testing. Most skilled social engineers trick users into giving up information voluntarily through attacks like phishing and adware. Social Engineering (SE) in social media is structurally similar to regular posts but contains malicious intrinsic meaning within the sentence semantic. In this paper, a novel SE model is trained using a Recurrent Neural Network Long Short Term Memory (RNN-LSTM) to identify well-disguised SE threats in social media posts. We use a custom dataset crawled from hundreds of… More >

Abstract Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET) is the framework for social networking with a realistic framework. In the MANET environment, based on the query, information is transmitted between the sender and receiver. In the MANET network, the nodes within the communication range are involved in data transmission. Even the nodes that lie outside of the communication range are involved in the transmission of relay messages. However, due to the openness and frequent mobility of nodes, they are subjected to the vast range of security threats in MANET. Hence, it is necessary to develop an appropriate security mechanism for the data MANET… More >

Abstract The necessity of on-time cancer detection is extremely high in the recent days as it becomes a threat to human life. The skin cancer is considered as one of the dangerous diseases among other types of cancer since it causes severe health impacts on human beings and hence it is highly mandatory to detect the skin cancer in the early stage for providing adequate treatment. Therefore, an effective image processing approach is employed in this present study for the accurate detection of skin cancer. Initially, the dermoscopy images of skin lesions are retrieved and processed by eliminating the noises with… More >

Abstract The departure of good employee incurs direct and indirect cost and impacts for an organization. The direct cost arises from hiring to training of the relevant employee. The replacement time and lost productivity affect the running of business processes. This work presents the use of ensemble classifier to identify important attributes that affects attrition significantly. The data consists of attributes related to job function, education level, satisfaction towards work and working relationship, compensation, and frequency of business travel. Both bagging and boosting classifiers were used for testing. The results show that the selected features (nine selected features) achieve the same… More >

Abstract Nowadays, the cloud environment faces numerous issues like synchronizing information before the switch over the data migration. The requirement for a centralized internet of things (IoT)-based system has been restricted to some extent. Due to low scalability on security considerations, the cloud seems uninteresting. Since healthcare networks demand computer operations on large amounts of data, the sensitivity of device latency evolved among health networks is a challenging issue. In comparison to cloud domains, the new paradigms of fog computing give fresh alternatives by bringing resources closer to users by providing low latency and energy-efficient data processing solutions. Previous fog computing… More >
