Chemical space deconstruction-based dynamic model ensemble architecture for molecular property prediction

Green solvents, catalysts, functional materials, drugs, and other chemical products now have a quick engine for design thanks to machine learning (ML) based prediction of molecular properties. However, the accuracy and stability of ML-based models can be impeded by poor data quality, which is rarely studied in chemical product discovery and design. Inspired by the dynamic ensemble selection (DES), an improved DES based on chemical space deconstruction is proposed in this work to accommodate the prediction task of molecular properties. We innovatively developed a chemical space representation and deconstruction model based on a self-organizing mapping (SOM) neural network, facilitating the rapid implementation of the improved DES on molecular samples. Consequently, a novel dynamic model ensemble architecture (SOM-DES) is proposed as a model enhancement technology to build a more accurate and stable ensemble model, aiming to improve the predictive performance on the chemical subspace within poor-quality data. To achieve the architecture, a supervised dimensionality reduction algorithm has been improved to enhance the deep mining of molecular feature information for DES optimization. Additionally, a novel resampling strategy based on the combination of the geometric synthetic minority oversampling technique (G-SMOTE) algorithm and chemical space deconstruction, as a data augmentation technology, has been proposed for mitigating the disadvantage of unbalanced data during DES training. The prediction task for enthalpy of formation of the ideal gas is applied as a case study to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed SOM-DES. The results indicate that the proposed SOM-DES (R2 = 0.9731, RMSE = 55.4639) outperforms the traditional static ensemble strategy (SES, R2 = 0.9552, RMSE = 71.5045) in terms of global chemical spatial precision. More importantly, for chemical subspaces that are difficult to predict due to low data quality, SOM-DES shows a significant reduction in prediction errors compared to SES.

Identifying hot subdwarf stars from photometric data using a Gaussian mixture model and graph neural network

Abstract Hot subdwarf stars are very important for understanding stellar evolution, stellar astrophysics, and binary star systems. Identifying more such stars can help us better understand their statistical distribution, properties, and evolution. In this paper, we present a new method to search for hot subdwarf stars in photometric data (BP, RP, G, g, r, i, z, y) using a machine-learning algorithm, a graph neural network, and a Gaussian mixture model. We use a Gaussian mixture model and Markov distance to build the graph structure, and on the graph structure we use a graph neural network to identify hot subdwarf stars from a dataset containing 31838 stars, with the recall, precision, and F1 score maximized on the original, weight, and synthetic minority oversampling technique datasets. Finally, to validate the model, we selected about 2116 hot subdwarf candidates from the Gaia Data Release 3 database and compared them with the studies by Culpan et al. (2022, A&A, 662, A40) and Geier et al. (2019, A&A, 621, A38).

Integrated Spatial and Temporal Features Based Network Intrusion Detection System Using SMOTE Sampling

With attackers discovering more inventive ways to take advantage of network weaknesses, the pace of attacks has drastically increased in recent years. As a result, network security has never been more important, and many network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) rely on old, out-of-date attack signatures. This necessitates the deployment of reliable and modern Network Intrusion Detection Systems that are educated on the most recent data and employ deep learning techniques to detect malicious activities. However, it has been found that the most recent datasets readily available contain a large quantity of benign data, enabling conventional deep learning systems to train on the imbalance data. A high false detection rate result from this. To overcome the aforementioned issues, we suggest a Synthetic Minority Over-Sampling Technique (SMOTE) integrated convolution neural network and bi-directional long short-term memory SCNN-BIDLSTM solution for creating intrusion detection systems. By employing the SMOTE, which integrates a convolution neural network to extract spatial features and a bi-directional long short-term memory to extract temporal information; difficulties are reduced by increasing the minority samples in our dataset. In order to train and evaluate our model, we used open benchmark datasets as CIC-IDS2017, NSL-KDD, and UNSW-NB15 and compared the results with other state of the art models.

OBMI: oversampling borderline minority instances by a two-stage Tomek link-finding procedure for class imbalance problem

Mitigating the impact of class imbalance datasets on classifiers poses a challenge to the machine learning community. Conventional classifiers do not perform well as they are habitually biased toward the majority class. Among existing solutions, the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) has shown great potential, aiming to improve the dataset rather than the classifier. However, SMOTE still needs improvement because of its equal oversampling to each minority instance. Based on the consensus that instances far from the borderline contribute less to classification, a refined method for oversampling borderline minority instances (OBMI) is proposed in this paper using a two-stage Tomek link-finding procedure. In the oversampling stage, the pairs of between-class instances nearest to each other are first found to form Tomek links. Then, these minority instances in Tomek links are extracted as base instances. Finally, new minority instances are generated, each of which is linearly interpolated between a base instance and one minority neighbor of the base instance. To address the overlap caused by oversampling, in the cleaning stage, Tomek links are employed again to remove the borderline instances from both classes. The OBMI is compared with ten baseline methods on 17 benchmark datasets. The results show that it performs better on most of the selected datasets in terms of the F1-score and G-mean. Statistical analysis also indicates its higher-level Friedman ranking.

Hybrid one‐dimensional residual autoencoder and ensemble of gradient boosting for cloud IDS

SummaryThe distributed and decentralized architecture of cloud computing is important for a number of industries, including business, government, entertainment, education, and information technology. It facilitates a wide aspect of information technology, where the computing model is vulnerable to attacks or intrusion. For detecting malicious activities, a novel intrusion detection system (IDS) is required to be developed. In this paper, an enhanced synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) with a hybrid one‐dimensional residual auto encoder and the Ensemble of Gradient Boosting (1D‐RAE‐EGB) models are proposed for cloud intrusion detection. The proposed IDS resolves the class imbalance problem through enhanced SMOTE. In addition, noise reduction is accomplished with ID‐RAE, which minimizes the data dimension. Finally, the soft voting‐based ensemble classification model is used for attack detection. The ensemble gradient boosting model comprises categorical boosting (CatBoost), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM). The ensemble model is fine‐tuned by reducing the number of parameters under fitting conditions since it is not compulsory to re‐adjust the weight values in a backpropagation process. The proposed IDS is implemented in Python using the NSL‐KDD dataset. The accuracy, precision, recall, f1‐score, false positive rate (FPR), false negative rate (FNR), specificity, and Kappa measure obtained for the proposed IDS are 99.98%, 99.3%, 98.5%, 99.95%, 0.723, 0.46, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively.

Intrusion Detection using Deep Learning

The focus of cloud computing nowadays has been reshaping the digital epoch, in which clients now face serious concerns about the security and privacy of their data hosted in the cloud, as well as increasingly sophisticated and frequent cyber attacks. Therefore, it has become imperative for both individuals and organizations to implement a robust intrusion detection system (IDS) capable of monitoring packets in the network, distinguishing between benign and malicious behaviour, and detecting the type of attacks. IDS based on ML are efficient and precise in spotting network threats. Yet, for large dimensional data sizes, the performance of these systems decreases. Thus, it is critical to build a suitable feature selection approach that selects necessary features without having an impact on the classification process or causing information loss. Furthermore, training ML models on unbalanced datasets show a rising false positive rate (FPR) and a lowering detection rate (DR). In this paper, we present an improved cloud IDS designed by incorporating the synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTE) to address the imbalanced data issue, and for feature selection, we propose to use a hybrid approach that includes three techniques: information gain (IG), chi-square (CS), and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Finally, the random forest (RF) model is utilized for detecting and classifying various types of attacks. The suggested system has been verified by the UNSW-NB15 and Kyoto datasets, achieving accuracies of over 98% and 99% in the multi-class classification scenario, respectively. It was noticed that an intrusion detection system with fewer informative features would operate more effectively. The simulation results significantly outperform other methodologies proposed in the related work in terms of different evaluation metrics.

Enhancing Heartbeat Classification through Cascading Next Generation and Conventional Reservoir Computing

Electrocardiography (ECG) is a simple and safe tool for detecting heart conditions. Despite the diaspora of existing heartbeat classifiers, improvements such as real-time heartbeat identification and patient-independent classification persist. Reservoir computing (RC) based heartbeat classifiers are an emerging computational efficiency solution that is potentially recommended for real-time concerns. However, multiclass patient-independent heartbeat classification using RC-based classifiers has not been considered and constitutes a challenge. This study investigates patient-independent heartbeat classification by leveraging traditional RC and next-generation reservoir computing (NG-RC) solely or in a cascade. Three RCs were investigated for classification tasks: a linear RC featuring linear internal nodes, a nonlinear RC with a nonlinear internal node, and an NG-RC. Each of these has been evaluated independently using either linear ridge regression or multilayer perceptron (MLP) as readout models. Only three classes were considered for classification: the N, V, and S categories. Techniques to deal with the imbalanced nature of the data, such as the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and oversampling by replacement, were used. The MIT-BIH dataset was used to evaluate classification performance. The area under the curve (AUC) criterion was used as an evaluation metric. The NG-RC-based model improves classification performance and mitigates the overfitting issue. It has improved classification performance by 4.18% and 2.31% for the intra-patient and inter-patient paradigms, respectively. By cascading RC and NG-RC, the identification performance of the three heartbeat categories is further enhanced. AUCs of 97.80% and 92.09% were reported for intra- and inter-patient scenarios, respectively. These results suggest promising opportunities to leverage RC technology for multiclass, patient-independent heartbeat recognition.

Elastic Net – MLP – SMOTE (EMS)-Based Model for Enhancing Stroke Prediction

A stroke is a sudden disruption in the blood supply to the brain, affecting one or more blood vessels that nourish the brain. This results in a disturbance or deficiency in the brain’s oxygen supply, causing damage or impairment to brain cells. In some cases, determining the timing and severity of a stroke can be challenging. This study proposes an EMS (Elastic Net – MLP – SMOTE) model built on artificial intelligence, specifically utilizing two machine learning algorithms, Elastic Net and multilayer perceptron (MLP) by using Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE). The Elastic Net algorithm was employed for feature selection to identify crucial features, followed by prediction using the MLP algorithm. The Elastic Net algorithm was used due to its incorporation of both L2 and L1 regularization, providing good results in discerning influential features in model performance. The MLP algorithm was employed for its reliance on deep learning techniques, which yield promising results in such cases. This algorithm classified data from a comprehensive dataset containing essential features related to stroke. SMOTE is used to increase the performance of the model. Notably, no previous research study has integrated these three techniques together (Elastic Net – MLP – SMOTE). EMS achieved a prediction accuracy of 95% and MSE = 0.05. This model facilitates predicting the occurrence of stroke by relying on the patient’s historical data, mitigating the sudden onset of this serious disease.

Predicting the Number of Software Faults using Deep Learning

The software testing phase requires considerable time, effort, and cost, particularly when there are many faults. Thus, developers focus on the evolution of Software Fault Prediction (SFP) to predict faulty units in advance, therefore, improving software quality significantly. Forecasting the number of faults in software units can efficiently direct software testing efforts. Previous studies have employed several machine learning models to determine whether a software unit is faulty. In this study, a new, simple deep neural network approach that can adapt to the type of input data was designed, utilizing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), to predict the number of software faults. Twelve open-source software project datasets from the PROMISE repository were used for testing and validation. As data imbalance can negatively impact prediction accuracy, the new version of synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTEND) was used to resolve data imbalance. In experimental results, a lower error rate was obtained for MLP, compared to CNN, reaching 0.195, indicating the accuracy of this prediction model. The proposed approach proved to be effective when compared with two of the best machine learning models in the field of prediction. The code will be available on GitHub.

Switching Triple-Weight-SMOTE in Empirical Feature Space for Imbalanced and Incomplete Data

Most existing techniques to handle imbalanced data might be invalid in the presence of data missing since they are based on the assumption that the data is complete. To shorten such a gap, a novel synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE), i.e., Non-negative latent factor analysis-incorporated and Switching triple-weight-SMOTE (NSS), is proposed. The main idea of NSS is 4-fold: 1) a Lagrange non-negative matrix factorization (LNMF) method is put forward to impute the missing values with a guaranteed non-negativity according to the original distribution owing to the consideration of the global feature information; 2) by mapping the complete data after imputation into an empirical feature space (EFS), a more separable dataset is achieved, which rigidly maintains the same geometrical structure as the original data while efficiently reducing the redundant features to enhance model generalization and operational efficiency; 3) after fulfilling the fuzzy <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$c$</tex-math> </inline-formula> -means (FCM) clustering, the inter-cluster distance, the capacity of each minority cluster and its sparsity are comprehensively taken into account to develop a triple-weight assignment strategy, which contributes to allocate the number of synthetic samples to each cluster appropriately; 4) a switching oversampling strategy is provided in response to the clusters with different distributions (i.e., either Gaussian or uniform distribution). Moreover, a posterior is used to check the correctness of the synthetic samples. Finally, experiments on a real dataset and <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$12$</tex-math> </inline-formula> public datasets show that the proposed NSS outperforms other <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$11$</tex-math> </inline-formula> state-of-art methods. <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">Note to Practitioners</i> —Data classification is an important computer task, which has been successfully used in many domains, including but not limited to, the medical domain, finance domain, and manufacturing domain. However, there are two big challenges when a classifier is to handle real-world data in the presence of imbalanced data and missing values. More specifically, the model performance is very likely to be degraded due to the missing information and the inclination of classifiers to the majority class. To surmount this problem, a natural idea is to use the LNMF model to obtain the desired recovery. Then, for the complete data after imputation, the empirical-feature-space-based switching triple-weight-SMOTE is applied to synthesize safe and correct data (i.e., lie solidly on the region of minority class) to achieve the balance. Such a working principle generates a novel NSS strategy. The proposed NSS strategy has the following obvious merits: 1) the imputation guarantees the similarity to the original dataset; and 2) new synthetic data are safely generated by taking adequate consideration of the information and distribution of datasets. Thus, the proposed NSS can greatly help improve the classification accuracy of real-world datasets.

The deep convolutional networks for the classification of multi-class arrhythmia

An arrhythmia is an irregular heartbeat. Many researchers in the AI field have carried out the automatic classification of arrhythmias, and the issue that has been widely discussed is imbalanced data. A popular technique for overcoming this problem is the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) technique. In this paper, the author adds some sampling of data obtained from other datasets into the primary dataset. In this case, the main dataset is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology–Beth Israel Hospital (MIT-BIH) arrhythmia database and an additional dataset from the MIT-BIH supraventricular arrhythmia database. The classification process is carried out with one-dimensional convolutional neural network model (1D-CNN) to perform multiclass and subject-class advancement of medical instrumentation (AAMII) classifications. The results obtained from this study are an accuracy of 99.10% for multiclass and 99.25% for subject-class.

An early warning model for sepsis complicated with acute respiratory distress syndrome based on synthetic minority oversampling technique algorithm

To explore the independent risk factors of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in patients with sepsis, establish an early warning model, and verify the predictive value of the model based on synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) algorithm. A retrospective case-control study was conducted. 566 patients with sepsis who were admitted to Jinan People's Hospital from October 2016 to October 2022 were enrolled. General information, underlying diseases, infection sites, initial cause, severity scores, blood and arterial blood gas analysis indicators at admission, treatment measures, complications, and prognosis indicators of patients were collected. The patients were grouped according to whether ARDS occurred during hospitalization, and the clinical data between the two groups were observed and compared. Univariate and binary multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to select the independent risk factors of ARDS during hospitalization in septic patients, and regression equation was established to construct the early warning model. Simultaneously, the dataset was improved using the SMOTE algorithm to build an enhanced warning model. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to validate the prediction efficiency of the model. 566 patients with sepsis were included in the final analysis, of which 163 developed ARDS during hospitalization and 403 did not. Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in age, body mass index (BMI), malignant tumor, blood transfusion history, pancreas and peripancreatic infection, gastrointestinal tract infection, pulmonary infection as the initial etiology, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, albumin (Alb), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), mechanical ventilation therapy, septic shock and length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay between the two groups. Binary multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age [odds ratio (OR) = 3.449, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 2.197-5.414, P = 0.000], pulmonary infection as the initial etiology (OR = 2.309, 95%CI was 1.427-3.737, P = 0.001), pancreas and peripancreatic infection (OR = 1.937, 95%CI was 1.236-3.035, P = 0.004), septic shock (OR = 3.381, 95%CI was 1.890-6.047, P = 0.000), SOFA score (OR = 9.311, 95%CI was 5.831-14.867, P = 0.000) were independent influencing factors of ARDS during hospitalization in septic patients. An early warning model was established based on the above risk factors: P1 = -4.558+1.238×age+0.837×pulmonary infection as the initial etiology+0.661×pancreas and peripancreatic infection+1.218×septic shock+2.231×SOFA score. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the model for ARDS during hospitalization in septic patients was 0.882 (95%CI was 0.851-0.914) with sensitivity of 79.8% and specificity of 83.4%. The dataset was improved based on the SMOTE algorithm, and the early warning model was rebuilt: P2 = -3.279+1.288×age+0.763×pulmonary infection as the initial etiology+0.635×pancreas and peripancreatic infection+1.068×septic shock+2.201×SOFA score. ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of the model for ARDS during hospitalization in septic patients was 0.890 (95%CI was 0.867-0.913) with sensitivity of 85.3% and specificity of 79.1%. This result further confirmed that the early warning model constructed by the independent risk factors mentioned above had high predictive performance. Risk factors for the occurrence of ARDS during hospitalization in patients with sepsis include age, pulmonary infection as the initial etiology, pancreatic and peripancreatic infection, septic shock, and SOFA score. Clinically, the probability of ARDS in patients with sepsis can be assessed based on the warning model established using these risk factors, allowing for early intervention and improvement of prognosis.

A Real‐time Lithological Identification Method based on SMOTE‐Tomek and ICSA Optimization

AbstractIn petroleum engineering, real‐time lithology identification is very important for reservoir evaluation, drilling decisions and petroleum geological exploration. A lithology identification method while drilling based on machine learning and mud logging data is studied in this paper. This method can effectively utilize downhole parameters collected in realtime during drilling, to identify lithology in real‐time and provide a reference for optimization of drilling parameters. Given the imbalance of lithology samples, the synthetic minority over‐sampling technique (SMOTE) and Tomek link were used to balance the sample number of five lithologies. Meanwhile, this paper introduces Tent map, random opposition‐based learning and dynamic perceived probability to the original crow search algorithm (CSA), and establishes an improved crow search algorithm (ICSA). In this paper, ICSA is used to optimize the hyperparameter combination of random forest (RF), extremely random trees (ET), extreme gradient boosting (XGB), and light gradient boosting machine (LGBM) models. In addition, this study combines the recognition advantages of the four models. The accuracy of lithology identification by the weighted average probability model reaches 0.877. The study of this paper realizes high‐precision real‐time lithology identification method, which can provide lithology reference for the drilling process.

A Comparative Analysis of Combination of CNN-Based Models with Ensemble Learning on Imbalanced Data

This study investigates the usefulness of the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) in conjunction with convolutional neural network (CNN) models, which include both single and ensemble classifiers. The objective of this research is to handle the difficulty of multi-class imbalanced image classification. The application of SMOTE in imbalanced picture datasets is still underexplored, even though CNNs have been shown to be successful in image classification and that ensemble learning approaches have improved their performance. To investigate whether or not SMOTE can increase classification accuracy and other performance measures when combined with CNN-based classifiers, our research makes use of a CIFAR-10 dataset that has been artificially step-imbalanced and has varying imbalanced ratios. We conducted experiments using five distinct models, namely AdaBoost, XGBoost, standalone CNN, CNN-AdaBoost, and CNN-XGBoost, on datasets that were either imbalanced or SMOTE-balanced. Metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were included in the evaluation process. The findings indicate that SMOTE dramatically improves the accuracy of minority classes, and that the combination of ensemble classifiers with CNNs and oversampling techniques significantly improves overall classification performance, particularly in situations when there is a high-class imbalance. When it comes to enhancing imbalanced classification tasks, this study demonstrates the potential of merging oversampling techniques with CNN-based ensemble classifiers to minimize the impacts of class imbalance in picture datasets. This suggests a promising direction for future research in this area.

Leveraging the random forest (RF) model, our system achieves exceptional accuracies exceeding 98% and 99% on the UNSW-NB15 and Kyoto datasets, respectively. Notably, fewer informative features enhance system efficiency, as evidenced by superior performance compared to existing methodologies
