Improved Arabic image captioning model using feature concatenation with pre-trained word embedding

Automatic captioning of images contributes to identifying features of multimedia content and helps in the detection of interesting patterns, trends, and occurrences. English image captioning has recently made incredible progress; however, Arabic image captioning is still lagging. In the field of machine learning, Arabic image-caption generation is generally a very difficult problem. This paper presents a more accurate model for Arabic image captioning by using transformer models in both the encoder and decoder phases as feature extractors from images in the encoder phase and a pre-trained word embedding model in the decoder phase. The models are demonstrated, and all of them are implemented, trained, and tested on Arabic Flickr8k datasets. For the image feature extraction subsystem, we compared using three different individual vision models (SWIN, XCIT, and ConvNexT) with concatenation to get among them the most expressive extracted feature vector of the image, and for the caption generation lingual subsystem, which is tested by four different pre-trained language embedding models: (ARABERT, ARAELECTRA, MARBERTv2, and CamelBERT), to select from them the most accurate pre-trained language embedding model. Our experiments showed that building an Arabic image captioning system that uses a concatenation of the three transformer-based models ConvNexT combined with SWIN and XCIT as an image feature extractor, combined with the CamelBERT language embedding model produces the best results among the other combinations, having scores of 0.5980 with BLEU-1 and with ConvNexT combined with SWIN the araelectra language embedding model having a score of 0.1664 with BLEU-4 which are higher than the previously reported values of 0.443 and 0.157.

A Survey on the Online Shopping Customer Review Data using Association Rule Mining

Revealing complex associations between entities is of vast significance for business optimization, prediction and decision making. Such associations include not only co-occurrence-based explicit relations but also non co-occurrence-based implicit ones. Associative rule mining (ARM) is used to study these implicit and explicit relationships. Online shopping customer review (OSCR) data has become a major information resource for consumers and has extremely important implications for a wide range of management activities. Consumer reviews examine the bond between service quality and customer purchase behaviour in online shopping context. Apriori is a key algorithm for mining frequent item sets for Boolean association rules. To develop the efficiency of the level-wise generation of frequent itemsets in online customer shopping customer review data, Apriori property is used to reduce the search space .The detection of interesting patterns in this collection of data can guide to important marketing and management strategic decisions. In this survey paper, some of the research work carried out on customer online shopping data is discussed. Also, the use of Apriori algorithm for the same type of data set is analyzed.
