Abstract Employing machine learning techniques in predicting the parameters of metamaterial antennas has a significant impact on the reduction of the time needed to design an antenna with optimal parameters using simulation tools. In this paper, we propose a new approach for predicting the bandwidth of metamaterial antenna using a novel ensemble model. The proposed ensemble model is composed of two levels of regression models. The first level consists of three strong models namely, random forest, support vector regression, and light gradient boosting machine. Whereas the second level is based on the ElasticNet regression model, which… More >

Abstract Electronic Health Records (EHRs) are the digital form of patients’ medical reports or records. EHRs facilitate advanced analytics and aid in better decision-making for clinical data. Medical data are very complicated and using one classification algorithm to reach good results is difficult. For this reason, we use a combination of classification techniques to reach an efficient and accurate classification model. This model combination is called the Ensemble model. We need to predict new medical data with a high accuracy value in a small processing time. We propose a new ensemble model MDRL which is efficient… More >

Abstract Pulmonary diseases are common throughout the world, especially in developing countries. These diseases include chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, pneumonia, asthma, tuberculosis, fibrosis, and recently COVID-19. In general, pulmonary diseases have a similar footprint on chest radiographs which makes them difficult to discriminate even for expert radiologists. In recent years, many image processing techniques and artificial intelligence models have been developed to quickly and accurately diagnose lung diseases. In this paper, the performance of four popular pretrained models (namely VGG16, DenseNet201, DarkNet19, and XceptionNet) in distinguishing between different pulmonary diseases was analyzed. To the best of… More >

Abstract The anomaly detection of the brake operating unit (BOU) in the brake systems on metro vehicle is critical for the safety and reliability of the trains. On the other hand, current periodic inspection and maintenance are unable to detect anomalies in an early stage. Also, building an accurate and stable system for detecting anomalies is extremely difficult. Therefore, we present an efficient model that use an ensemble of recurrent autoencoders to accurately detect the BOU abnormalities of metro trains. This is the first proposal to employ an ensemble deep learning technique to detect BOU abnormalities… More >

Abstract Multitasking and multioutput neural networks models jointly learn related classification tasks from a shared structure. Hard parameters sharing is a multitasking approach that shares hidden layers between multiple task-specific outputs. The output layers’ weights are essential in transforming aggregated neurons outputs into tasks labels. This paper redirects the multioutput network research to prove that the ensemble of output layers prediction can improve network performance in classifying multi-label classification tasks. The network’s output layers initialized with different weights simulate multiple semi-independent classifiers that can make non-identical label sets predictions for the same instance. The ensemble of… More >

Abstract Diabetics is one of the world’s most common diseases which are caused by continued high levels of blood sugar. The risk of diabetics can be lowered if the diabetic is found at the early stage. In recent days, several machine learning models were developed to predict the diabetic presence at an early stage. In this paper, we propose an embedded-based machine learning model that combines the split-vote method and instance duplication to leverage an imbalanced dataset called PIMA Indian to increase the prediction of diabetics. The proposed method uses both the concept of over-sampling and More >

Abstract Astrocytoma IV or glioblastoma is one of the fatal and dangerous types of brain tumors. Early detection of brain tumor increases the survival rate and helps in reducing the fatality rate. Various imaging modalities have been used for diagnosing by expert radiologists, and Medical Resonance Image (MRI) is considered a better option for detecting brain tumors as MRI is a non-invasive technique and provides better visualization of the brain region. One of the challenging issues is to identify the tumorous region from the MRI scans correctly. Manual segmentation is performed by medical experts, which is… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of personalized services, major websites have launched a recommendation module in recent years. This module will recommend information you are interested in based on your viewing history and other information, thereby improving the economic benefits of the website and increasing the number of users. This paper has introduced content-based recommendation algorithm, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN)-based collaborative filtering (CF) algorithm and singular value decomposition-based (SVD) collaborative filtering algorithm. However, the mentioned recommendation algorithms all recommend for a certain aspect, and do not realize the recommendation of specific movies input by specific users which… More >

Abstract Breast cancer is one of the main causes of death in women. When body tissues start behaves abnormally and the ratio of tissues growth becomes asymmetrical then this stage is called cancer. Invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) is the early stage of breast cancer. The early detection and diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma is a significant step for the cure of IDC breast cancer. This paper presents a convolutional neural network (CNN) approach to detect and visualize the IDC tissues in breast on histological images dataset. The dataset consists of 90 thousand histopathological images containing two… More >

Abstract An Intrusion detection system (IDS) is extensively used to identify cyber-attacks preferably in real-time and to achieve integrity, confidentiality, and availability of sensitive information. In this work, we develop a novel IDS using machine learning techniques to increase the performance of the attack detection process. In order to cope with high dimensional feature-rich traffic in large networks, we introduce a Bat-Inspired Optimization and Correlation-based Feature Selection (BIOCFS) algorithm and an ensemble classification approach. The BIOCFS is introduced to estimate the correlation of the identified features and to choose the ideal subset for training and testing… More >
