Abstract The theory of rough set represents a non-statistical methodology for analyzing ambiguity and imprecise information. It can be characterized by two crisp sets, named the upper and lower approximations that are used to determine the boundary region and accurate measure of any subset. This article endeavors to achieve the best approximation and the highest accuracy degree by using the minimal structure approximation space via ideal . The novel approach (indicated by ) modifies the approximation space to diminish the boundary region and enhance the measure of accuracy. The suggested method is more accurate than Pawlak’s and EL-Sharkasy techniques. Via illustrated… More >

Abstract Preserving biodiversity and maintaining ecological balance is essential in current environmental conditions. It is challenging to determine vegetation using traditional map classification approaches. The primary issue in detecting vegetation pattern is that it appears with complex spatial structures and similar spectral properties. It is more demandable to determine the multiple spectral analyses for improving the accuracy of vegetation mapping through remotely sensed images. The proposed framework is developed with the idea of ensembling three effective strategies to produce a robust architecture for vegetation mapping. The architecture comprises three approaches, feature-based approach, region-based approach, and texture-based approach for classifying the vegetation… More >

Abstract In social data analytics, Virtual Community (VC) detection is a primary challenge in discovering user relationships and enhancing social recommendations. VC formation is used for personal interaction between communities. But the usual methods didn’t find the Suspicious Behaviour (SB) needed to make a VC. The Generalized Jaccard Suspicious Behavior Similarity-based Recurrent Deep Neural Network Classification and Ranking (GJSBS-RDNNCR) Model addresses these issues. The GJSBS-RDNNCR model comprises four layers for VC formation in Social Networks (SN). In the GJSBS-RDNNCR model, the SN is given as an input at the input layer. After that, the User’s Behaviors (UB) are extracted in the… More >

Abstract Text-To-Speech (TTS) is a speech processing tool that is highly helpful for visually-challenged people. The TTS tool is applied to transform the texts into human-like sounds. However, it is highly challenging to accomplish the TTS outcomes for the non-diacritized text of the Arabic language since it has multiple unique features and rules. Some special characters like gemination and diacritic signs that correspondingly indicate consonant doubling and short vowels greatly impact the precise pronunciation of the Arabic language. But, such signs are not frequently used in the texts written in the Arabic language since its speakers and readers can guess them… More >

Abstract Use of deep learning algorithms for the investigation and analysis of medical images has emerged as a powerful technique. The increase in retinal diseases is alarming as it may lead to permanent blindness if left untreated. Automation of the diagnosis process of retinal diseases not only assists ophthalmologists in correct decision-making but saves time also. Several researchers have worked on automated retinal disease classification but restricted either to hand-crafted feature selection or binary classification. This paper presents a deep learning-based approach for the automated classification of multiple retinal diseases using fundus images. For this research, the data has been collected… More >

Abstract Opinion Mining (OM) studies in Arabic are limited though it is one of the most extensively-spoken languages worldwide. Though the interest in OM studies in the Arabic language is growing among researchers, it needs a vast number of investigations due to the unique morphological principles of the language. Arabic OM studies experience multiple challenges owing to the poor existence of language sources and Arabic-specific linguistic features. The comparative OM studies in the English language are wide and novel. But, comparative OM studies in the Arabic language are yet to be established and are still in a nascent stage. The unique… More >

Abstract Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) have been widely applied to deal with temporal problems, such as flood forecasting and financial data processing. On the one hand, traditional RNNs models amplify the gradient issue due to the strict time serial dependency, making it difficult to realize a long-term memory function. On the other hand, RNNs cells are highly complex, which will significantly increase computational complexity and cause waste of computational resources during model training. In this paper, an improved Time Feedforward Connections Recurrent Neural Networks (TFC-RNNs) model was first proposed to address the gradient issue. A parallel branch was introduced for the… More >

Abstract Educational Data Mining (EDM) is an emergent discipline that concentrates on the design of self-learning and adaptive approaches. Higher education institutions have started to utilize analytical tools to improve students’ grades and retention. Prediction of students’ performance is a difficult process owing to the massive quantity of educational data. Therefore, Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques can be used for educational data mining in a big data environment. At the same time, in EDM, the feature selection process becomes necessary in creation of feature subsets. Since the feature selection performance affects the predictive performance of any model, it is important to elaborately… More >

Abstract Feature extraction plays an important role in constructing artificial intelligence (AI) models of industrial control systems (ICSs). Three challenges in this field are learning effective representation from high-dimensional features, data heterogeneity, and data noise due to the diversity of data dimensions, formats and noise of sensors, controllers and actuators. Hence, a novel unsupervised learning autoencoder model is proposed for ICS data in this paper. Although traditional methods only capture the linear correlations of ICS features, our deep industrial representation learning model (DIRL) based on a convolutional neural network can mine high-order features, thus solving the problem of high-dimensional and heterogeneous… More >

Abstract Brain signal analysis plays a significant role in attaining data related to motor activities. The parietal region of the brain plays a vital role in muscular movements. This approach aims to demonstrate a unique technique to identify an ideal region of the human brain that generates signals responsible for muscular movements; perform statistical analysis to provide an absolute characterization of the signal and validate the obtained results using a prototype arm. This can enhance the practical implementation of these frequency extractions for future neuro-prosthetic applications and the characterization of neurological diseases like Parkinson’s disease (PD). To play out this handling… More >
