Analysis of the Severity of Heterogeneity Protection Forest based on SVM and PCA

Forest heterogeneity indicates the forest condition on producing more carbon into environment. Semidang Bukit Kabu Hunting Park Forest is a nature reserve lies over two districts of Central Bengkulu and Seluma, Bengkulu Province, which should have a heterogeneous forest to protect its natural resources. However, the data showed that the condition of it does not appear to have dense forest heterogeneity anymore, and its rate still remain unknown. Remote sensing as one of tools to help the remote monitoring was believed to be helpful to this question. This study showed changes in the heterogeneity from 2016 to 2021. Sentinel-2 imageries were occupied to help the process of classification of forest and non-forest areas. Support Vector Machine, as one of powerful machine learning tools, was also help the process with the integrating of Principal Component Analysis to optimize forest characteristics. This study indicates that there are significant reductions of forest heterogeneity over the area. The number of forest (heterogeny areas) continues to decline from 8122 ha in 2016 to 4339 ha in 2021. Furthermore, this study had proven that the algorithm of support vector machines showed significant performance to build the model towards the data with overall accuracy rate of 0.9434 and a kappa index of 0.9833.

Cramer Distance: A Deep Learning Approach for Better Epileptic Seizure Prediction

Epilepsy is a neurological condition that is found in most people all over the world, and the ability to accurately anticipate seizures in epileptic patients has a significant impact on both their level of protection and their overall quality of life. This research proposes a unique patient specific seizure prediction approach based on Deep Learning (DL) using long-term scalp electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings to predict seizure onset. Preictal brain states should be adequately detected and differentiated from the prevalent interictal brain states as early as possible to make this technology acceptable for real-time use. A single automated system has been designed for the Features Extraction (FE) and classification processes. The raw EEG signal that has not been pre-processed is considered the input to the system, and the signal is further reduced using subsequent computations. An innovative reconstruction approach using Variational Auto-Encoder Generative Adversarial Networks (VAE+C+GAN) with the Cramer Distance (CD) and a Temporal-Spatial-Frequency (TSF) loss function is presented in this research work. The machine that discriminates receives instructions to differentiate between created tests and actual samples, while the generator is verified to produce false samples that the discriminator does not recognize as fake. The proposed VAE+C+GAN’s experimental results have been examined, and a classification accuracy of 95% has been achieved. According to the experiment's findings, the VAE-C-GAN performs better than the current EEG classification system and has excellent potential for real-time applications.

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging as a new tool for molecular histopathology in epilepsy surgery.

Epilepsy surgery is a treatment option for patients with seizures that do not respond to pharmacotherapy. The histopathological characterization of the resected tissue has an important prognostic value to define postoperative seizure outcome in these patients. However, the diagnostic classification process based on microscopic assessment remains challenging, particularly in the case of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD). Imaging mass spectrometry is a spatial omics technique that could improve tissue phenotyping and patient stratification by investigating hundreds of biomolecules within a single tissue sample, without the need for target-specific reagents. An insitu proteomic technique called matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) is here investigated as a potential new tool to expand conventional diagnosis on standard paraffin brain tissue sections. Unsupervised and region of interest-based MALDI-MSI analyses of sections from 10 FCD type IIb (FCDIIb) cases were performed, and the results were validated by immunohistochemistry. MALDI-MSI identified distinct histopathological features and the boundaries of the dysplastic lesion. The capability to visualize the spatial distribution of well-known diagnostic markers enabling multiplex measurements on single tissue sections was demonstrated. Finally, a fingerprint list of potential discriminant peptides that distinguish FCD core from peri-FCD tissue was generated. This is the first study that explores the potential application of MALDI-MSI in epilepsy postsurgery fixed tissue, by utilizing the well-characterized FCDIIb features as a model. Extending these preliminary analyses to a larger cohort of patients will generate spectral libraries of molecular signatures that discriminate tissue features and will contribute to patient phenotyping.

EffSVMNet: An efficient hybrid neural network for improved skin disease classification

The Human Body’s primary defense layer is the skin which protects important organs from various external assaults. This organ protects our internal systems, safeguarding them from possible injury caused by viruses, fungus, and other factors. Unfortunately, the skin is not impenetrable, and infections or damage can occur, which leads to serious problems of health. Even a little skin lesion has the power to become a huge issue. As a result, in our study, our target is to produce an effective system for the quick and early identification of skin illnesses using well-known Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The idea is to use this specialized neural network architecture to improve and speed up the detection and classification process to reduce time-lagging for treatment options. The proposed model i.e., EffSVMNet is a hybrid model consisting of a CNN classifier similar to EfficientNet B3 architecture coupled with a support vector machine (SVM). The sample dataset containing four classes i.e., acne, atopic dermatitis, bullous disease, and eczema is a subset of the DermNet dataset. The proposed model is not only lightweight but also achieves better validation accuracy when compared to similar methods in its category.

A unified multimodal classification framework based on deep metric learning

Multimodal classification algorithms play an essential role in multimodal machine learning, aiming to categorize distinct data points by analyzing data characteristics from multiple modalities. Extensive research has been conducted on distilling multimodal attributes and devising specialized fusion strategies for targeted classification tasks. Nevertheless, current algorithms mainly concentrate on a specific classification task and process data about the corresponding modalities. To address these limitations, we propose a unified multimodal classification framework proficient in handling diverse multimodal classification tasks and processing data from disparate modalities. UMCF is task-independent, and its unimodal feature extraction module can be adaptively substituted to accommodate data from diverse modalities. Moreover, we construct the multimodal learning scheme based on deep metric learning to mine latent characteristics within multimodal data. Specifically, we design the metric-based triplet learning to extract the intra-modal relationships within each modality and the contrastive pairwise learning to capture the inter-modal relationships across various modalities. Extensive experiments on two multimodal classification tasks, fake news detection and sentiment analysis, demonstrate that UMCF can extract multimodal data features and achieve superior classification performance than task-specific benchmarks. UMCF outperforms the best fake news detection baselines by 2.3% on average regarding F1 scores.

Fulfilling the criteria for CLP classification: the implications for substances under the EU chemicals legislation.

The CLP mandates manufacturers and importers to classify substances and mixtures according to hazard criteria, with notifications submitted to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). Substances meeting hazard criteria must be appropriately labelled and packaged to communicate hazards effectively. The CLP establishes hazard classification criteria but does not independently prohibit or restrict the use of hazardous chemicals. Instead, it serves as a basis for regulatory obligations in other specific regulations. This study investigates the regulatory implications of meeting hazard criteria under the CLP across EU regulations and directives listed in EU Chemicals Legislation Finder (EUCLEF). The results show that fulfilling criteria for human health hazard classes trigger regulatory obligations in the highest number of regulations/directives, with carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and reproductive toxicity (CMR) leading to obligations in 19 of 20 pieces of legislation linked to the CLP. Conversely, physical, environmental, and ozone layer hazards are associated with fewer regulations and directives, and lead to fewer prohibitions. The study underscores the pivotal role of the CLP in EU chemical legislation and the need for coherence and consistency across regulations. While regulatory obligations are primarily aimed at substances meeting hazard criteria, the variability in self-classification notifications and limitations in harmonized classification processes were observed. Moreover, the complexity of the regulatory structure poses challenges for stakeholders and policymakers, including inconsistencies, compliance difficulties, and the need for frequent revisions. Addressing these challenges is critical for enhancing regulatory effectiveness and ensuring a more coherent and harmonized approach to chemical management in the EU.

Analysis and prediction of sputtering yield using combined hierarchical clustering analysis and artificial neural network algorithms

Sputtering is a crucial technology in fields such as electric propulsion, materials processing and semiconductors. Modeling of sputtering is significant for improving thruster design and designing material processing control algorithms. In this study we use the hierarchical clustering analysis algorithm to perform cluster analysis on 17 descriptors related to sputtering. These descriptors are divided into four fundamental groups, with representative descriptors being the mass of the incident ion, the formation energy of the incident ion, the mass of the target and the formation energy of the target. We further discuss the possible physical processes and significance involved in the classification process, including cascade collisions, energy transfer and other processes. Finally, based on the analysis of the above descriptors, several neural network models are constructed for the regression of sputtering threshold E th, maximum sputtering energy E max and maximum sputtering yield SY max. In the regression model based on 267 samples, the four descriptor attributes showed higher accuracy than the 17 descriptors (R 2 evaluation) in the same neural network structure, with the 5×5 neural network structure achieving the highest accuracy, having an R 2 of 0.92. Additionally, simple sputtering test data also demonstrated the generalization ability of the 5×5 neural network model, the error in maximum sputtering yield being less than 5%.

A-182 Applications of artificial intelligence optical character recognition in laboratory clerical functions offsetting staffing shortages and error reduction

Abstract Background The clinical laboratory profession has been dealing with a decade long, and now critical retention and staffing problem. The average national turnover rate for laboratory technicians is 17%, and the highest turnover rate exhibited for phlebotomists is 36%. While turnover rates have an impact on a laboratory, or hospitals budget, more importantly they have a substantial impact on quality and error rates, particularly in the pre-analytical stage of testing; with studies showing up to 65.09% of errors impacting the pre-analytical phase. Methods In an effort to remedy this high error rate, a meta-analysis was performed on paper order entry and clerical pre-analytical error, in parallel with performance and accuracy data of advanced optical character recognition driven by artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI OCR). Results AI OCR studies demonstrated an untrained accuracy percentage, to include handwriting of 91.08%, and when trained utilizing both relational and hierarchal logic data bases accuracy increased to 98.4%. The rate at which AI OCR processed and classified medical information was 3-4 pages per second. It is estimated that 99.9%-100% accuracy can be achieved with additional form field training and mapping. The level of accuracy and efficiency for laboratory paper order-entry utilizing AI OCR can also be increased with the addition of natural language processing and data recognition algorithms when combined with logic databases containing information such as medical record numbers, ICD-10 codes, and laboratory test compendiums. Conclusions The performance of this technology demonstrates a strong application to reduce the burden of clerical paper order entry, while addressing the 30.8% dissatisfaction rate regarding manual entry processes among lab professionals surveyed. Moreover, AI OCR clerical data classification, extraction and entry processes augmented with human verification steps examined, demonstrated overall accuracy of 99.99%. The application of AI OCR in laboratory pre-analytical processes has the potential to improve test order accuracy and efficiency, ultimately impacting the quality of patient care and operational costs for healthcare facilities. When examined through the lens of staff retention, studies show that 80% of laboratory employees feel that a workplace with the necessary tools and technology positively impacts their job satisfaction. While organizations investing in technologies that drive both job efficiency and satisfaction see a 125% return on investment through productivity. Demonstrating that the application of sophisticated technologies that both increase productivity and decrease error rates have a substantial impact on job satisfaction and ultimately retention. Although laboratory clerical data and order entry processes were examined for this meta-analysis, the aggregate data compiled showed that the application of AI OCR in clerical processes could also have a substantial impact on the 25.9% annual turnover rate for hospitals as a whole in the United States.

A Comprehensive Compilation of Spectral Libraries for Petroleum Hydrocarbons (PHC) Encompassing VNIR-SWIR-TIR Ranges

Remote detection and mapping of surface materials using optical sensors relies predominantly on analyzing multispectral and hyperspectral imagery employing classification algorithms. The classification process involves comparing the spectra of individual pixels within the image to spectra from reference databases, commonly referred to as spectral libraries. Here, we introduce a comprehensive compilation of spectral libraries specifically tailored for petroleum hydrocarbons (PHC), meticulously crafted under controlled laboratory conditions. This compilation includes reference spectral libraries for various PHC forms, including crude oils, mineral substrate-PHC mixtures (comprising crude oils and fuels), oil-film on water, and oil-water emulsions. Data collection was conducted within the visible, near, and shortwave IR (VNIR-SWIR – 0.35–2.5 µm) spectra and thermal IR (TIR – 3–15 µm) range. The openly accessible spectral libraries presented herein support the scientific community and industry in characterizing field samples or spectral data from onshore and offshore sites. Furthermore, these libraries are instrumental in developing and applying classification algorithms designed for processing spectral images captured by cameras coupled to multiple platforms (e.g., tripods, drones, airborne, orbital satellites).

The IACOB project

Context. With the advent of large spectroscopic surveys, automated stellar parameter determination has become commonplace. Nevertheless, spectral classification still offers a quick and useful alternative for obtaining parameter estimates for large samples of spectra of varying quality. Aims. We present a new atlas of stellar spectra covering the B-type range, with the intention of providing detailed classification criteria valid for modern spectra and improving the grid of reliable standards. This new grid will be used in future works to provide classification criteria beyond the classical classification range and addressing, in particular, the use of Gaia/RVS spectra. Methods. We analysed historical standards by means of multiple high-resolution spectra, marking out problematic cases and complementing the grid with a new set of reliable comparators. We then elaborated on a new set of classification criteria based on high-quality R = 4000 spectra. Results. Our new classification grid is much thicker than any previous set of standards, presenting a high degree of self-consistency. Although it is based entirely on morphological criteria, the grid demonstrates a much better correlation with different physical parameters. Conclusions. The new grid can be used to study classification criteria in other spectral ranges, providing a valuable tool for the study of B-type stars that covers a very wide range of temperatures, luminosities, and stellar masses. The very process of classification also offers valuable insights into stellar evolution.

YOLO-Faster: An efficient remote sensing object detection method based on AMFFN.

As a pivotal task within computer vision, object detection finds application across a diverse spectrum of industrial scenarios. The advent of deep learning technologies has significantly elevated the accuracy of object detectors designed for general-purpose applications. Nevertheless, in contrast to conventional terrestrial environments, remote sensing object detection scenarios pose formidable challenges, including intricate and diverse backgrounds, fluctuating object scales, and pronounced interference from background noise, rendering remote sensing object detection an enduringly demanding task. In addition, despite the superior detection performance of deep learning-based object detection networks compared to traditional counterparts, their substantial parameter and computational demands curtail their feasibility for deployment on mobile devices equipped with low-power processors. In response to the aforementioned challenges, this paper introduces an enhanced lightweight remote sensing object detection network, denoted as YOLO-Faster, built upon the foundation of YOLOv5. Firstly, the lightweight design and inference speed of the object detection network is augmented by incorporating the lightweight network as the foundational network within YOLOv5, satisfying the demand for real-time detection on mobile devices. Moreover, to tackle the issue of detecting objects of different scales in large and complex backgrounds, an adaptive multiscale feature fusion network is introduced, which dynamically adjusts the large receptive field to capture dependencies among objects of different scales, enabling better modeling of object detection scenarios in remote sensing scenes. At last, the robustness of the object detection network under background noise is enhanced through incorporating a decoupled detection head that separates the classification and regression processes of the detection network. The results obtained from the public remote sensing object detection dataset DOTA show that the proposed method has a mean average precision of 71.4% and a detection speed of 38 frames per second.

Hybrid Approach of Multiclassification for Lung Cancer Types Identification

As a widespread health concern, lung cancer requires sophisticated detection techniques for a precise classification. This research proposes an integrated framework for improving how well lung cancer is detected by combining processing methods for images and machine learning. The dataset, which includes normal cases, large-cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma, allows for a detailed investigation of various forms of lung cancer. K-means clustering is the initial stage of the approach of segmenting complex images. Utilizing the VGG16 model, features are extracted that are important for classification. Several classification models, such as SVM, Logistic Regression, and Feedforward Neural Network, are trained using the combined features from clustering and VGG16. This research goes beyond the dichotomy of benign and malignant cases, investigating in more detail the subtypes of large-cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma. Including different classes of lung cancer increases the granularity of the classification process, improving diagnostic accuracy and clinical insights. The results highlight how well the suggested strategy works, which is a major advancement in the accurate identification of distinct kinds of lung cancer.

A comparative Analytical Investigation of Different Geomagnetic Storms During Solar Cycles 23 and 24

Abstract In this work, the geomagnetic storms that occurred during solar cycles 23 and 24 were classified based on the value of the Disturbance Storm Time index (Dst), which was considered an indicator of the strength of geomagnetic conditions. The special criterion of Dst >-50 nT was adopted in the classification process of the geomagnetic storms based on the minimum daily value of the Dst-index. The number of geomagnetic storms that occurred during the study period was counted according to the adopted criteria, including moderate storms with (Dst >-50 nT), strong storms with (Dst >-100 nT), severe storms with (Dst >-200 nT), and great storms with (Dst >-350 nT). The statistical results showed that the total number of geomagnetic storms identified during solar cycle 23 was 571 storms, while during solar cycle 24, the number of storms decreased to 282 storms. Depending on the minimum value of Dst-index, the geomagnetic storms identified during Cycle 23 were classified into: 446 moderate, 101 strong, 19 severe, and 5 great storms. During Cycle 24, it was classified into: 247 moderate, 34 strong, and 1 severe storm. Also, the results of the study indicated that no storm of either a severe or great type was recorded during the solar cycle 24, given that this cycle witnessed low solar activity. This indicates that solar activity associated with sunspot number (SSN) corresponds to the rate of occurrence and strength of geomagnetic storms of all categories.

SADO-Net: A spatial adaptive dart optimized network model for an automated brain tumor diagnosis using MRIs

Early detection of brain tumors is essential, and a biopsy is required to determine the type of tumors in the brain and is only possible after extensive brain surgery. Brain tumors can be identified and classified by clinicians with the aid of computational intelligence algorithms. Here, we developed an novel and intelligent automated system, known as, Spatial Adaptive Dart Optimized Network (SADO-Net) for the diagnosis of brain tumor using MRIs. This will allow medical professionals to identify tumors in their early stages with a high degree of accuracy. Before classifying the diseases, the preprocessed brain MRIs are segmented using the Spatial Pattern based Image Segmentation (SPISeg) technique. The type of brain tumor is then promptly and reliably identified using the Weight Optimized Deep Network (WODNet) Classification model. The adoption of the Darts Game based Optimization (DGO) method for feature reduction expedites the classification process. This work uses a range of metrics and popular public datasets such as BRATS 2018, BRATS 2019, BRATS 2020 and Figshare to compare and validate the performance of the proposed SADO-Net model in tumor identification. Based on the results, the SADO-Net model exhibits good performance, with an average accuracy of 99.2 % and a loss rate of 0.5 %.

Accurate and efficient elephant-flow classification based on co-trained models in evolved software-defined networks

Accurate early classification of elephant flows (elephants) is important for network management and resource optimization. Elephant models, mainly based on the byte count of flows, can always achieve high accuracy, but not in a time-efficient manner. The time efficiency becomes even worse when the flows to be classified are sampled by flow entry timeout over Software-Defined Networks (SDNs) to achieve a better resource efficiency. This paper addresses this situation by combining co-training and Reinforcement Learning (RL) to enable a closed-loop classification approach that divides the entire classification process into episodes, each involving two elephant models. One predicts elephants and is retrained by a selection of flows automatically labeled online by the other. RL is used to formulate a reward function that estimates the values of the possible actions based on the current states of both models and further adjusts the ratio of flows to be labeled in each phase. Extensive evaluation based on real traffic traces shows that the proposed approach can stably predict elephants using the packets received in the first 10% of their lifetime with an accuracy of over 80%, and using only about 10% more control channel bandwidth than the baseline over the evolved SDNs.

STEADYNet: Spatiotemporal EEG analysis for dementia detection using convolutional neural network.

Dementia is a neuro-degenerative disorder with a high death rate, mainly due to high human error, time, and cost of the current clinical diagnostic techniques. The existing dementia detection methods using hand-crafted electroencephalogram (EEG) signal features are unreliable. A convolution neural network using spatiotemporal EEG signals (STEADYNet) is presented to improvethe dementia detection. The STEADYNet uses a multichannel temporal EEG signal as input. The network is grouped into feature extraction and classification components. The feature extraction comprises two convolution layers to generate complex features, a max-pooling layer to reduce the EEG signal's spatiotemporal redundancy, and a dropout layer to improve the network's generalization. The classification processes the feature extraction output nonlinearly using two fully-connected layers to generate salient features and a softmax layer to generate disease probabilities. Two publicly available multiclass datasets of dementia are used for evaluation. The STEADYNet outperforms existing automatic dementia detection methods with accuracies of , , and for Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment, and frontotemporal dementia, respectively. The STEADYNet has a low inference time and floating point operations, suitable for real-time applications. It may aid neurologists in efficient detection and treatment. A Python implementation of the STEADYNet is available at https://github.com/SandeepSangle12/STEADYNet.git.

Implementation of Random Forest with Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique and Particle Swarm Optimization for Predicting Survival of Heart Failure Patients

Abstract. Heart failure is caused by a disruption in the heart’s muscle wall, which results in the heart’s inability to pump blood in sufficient quantities to meet the body’s demand for blood. The increasing prevalence and mortality rates of heart failure can be reduced through early disease detection using data mining processes. Data mining is believed to aid in discovering and interpreting specific patterns in decision-making based on processed information. Data mining has also been applied in various fields, one of which is the healthcare sector. One of the data mining techniques used to predict a decision is the classification technique. Purpose: This research aims to apply SMOTE and PSO to the Random Forest classification algorithm in predicting the survival of heart failure patients and to determine its accuracy results. Methods/Study design/approach: To predict the survival of heart failure patients, we utilize the Random Forest classification algorithm and incorporate data imbalance handling with SMOTE and feature selection techniques with PSO on the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset. The data mining process consists of three distinct phases. Result/Findings: The application of SMOTE and PSO on the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset in the Random Forest classification process resulted in an accuracy rate of 93.9%. In contrast, the Random Forest classification process without SMOTE and PSO resulted in an accuracy rate of only 88.33%. This indicates that the proposed method combination can optimize the performance of the classification algorithm, achieving a higher accuracy compared to previous research. Novelty/Originality/Value: Data imbalance and irrelevant features in the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset significantly impact the classification process. Therefore, this research utilizes SMOTE as a data balancing method and PSO as a feature selection technique in the Heart Failure Clinical Records Dataset before the classification process of the Random Forest algorithm.

Optimizing Random Forest for Predicting Thoracic Surgery Success in Lung Cancer Using Recursive Feature Elimination and GridSearchCV

Abstract. Lung cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer, claiming numerous lives annually. Thoracic surgery is a strategy to manage lung cancer patients; however, it poses high risks, including potential nerve damage and fatal complications leading to mortality. Predicting the success rate of thoracic surgery for lung cancer patients can be accomplished using data mining techniques based on classification principles.

The dataset is then used for classification using the Random Forest algorithm and applies the Recursive Feature Elimination feature selection to obtain the best features. GridSearchCV is used in this study for hyperparameter. Result: The accuracy using the Random Forest algorithm and Recursive Feature Elimination feature selection with hyperparameters tuning GridSearchCV resulted in an accuracy of 91,41%. The accuracy was obtained from the following parameters values: bootstrap set to false, criterion set to gini, n_estimator equal to 100, max_depth set to none, min_samples_split equal to 4, min_samples_leaf equal to 1, max_features set to auto, n_jobs set to -1, and verbose set to 2 with 10-fold cross validation. Novelty: This study comparison and analysis of various dataset preprocessing methods and different model configurations are conducted to find the best model for predicting the success rate of thoracic surgery.
