Classification of stochastic processes by convolutional neural networks

Stochastic processes (SPs) appear in a wide field, such as ecology, biology, chemistry, and computer science. In transport dynamics, deviations from Brownian motion leading to anomalous diffusion (AnDi) are found, including transport mechanisms, cellular organization, signaling, and more. For various reasons, identifying AnDi is still challenging; for example, (i) a system can have different physical processes running simultaneously, (ii) the analysis of the mean-squared displacements (MSDs) of the diffusing particles is used to distinguish between normal diffusion and AnDi. However, MSD calculations are not very informative because different models can yield curves with the same scaling exponent. Recently, proposals have suggested several new approaches. The majority of these are based on the machine learning (ML) revolution. This paper is based on ML algorithms known as the convolutional neural network to classify SPs. To do this, we generated the dataset from published paper codes for 12 SPs. We use a pre-trained model, the ResNet-50, to automatically classify the dataset. Accuracy of 99% has been achieved by running the ResNet-50 model on the dataset. We also show the comparison of the Resnet18 and GoogleNet models with the ResNet-50 model. The ResNet-50 model outperforms these models in terms of classification accuracy.

Classifying horse activities with big data using machine learning

Using big data-assisted machine learning methods in animal science has received increasing attention in recent years since they extract useful insights from large-scale animal datasets. Especially, animal activity recognition is the task of identifying the actions performed by animals and can provide rich insight into their health, welfare, reproduction, survival, foraging, and interaction with humans/other animals. This paper aims to propose a new solution for this purpose by building a machine learning model that classifies the actions of horses based on big sensor data. Unlike the previous studies, our study is original in that it compares the accuracies of per-subject (personalized) and cross-subject (generalized) models. It is the first study that especially compares different ensemble learning algorithms for horse activity recognition in terms of classification accuracy, including bagging trees, extremely randomized trees, random forest, extreme gradient boosting, light gradient boosting, gradient boosting, and categorical boosting. The purpose of the study is to classify five horse activities: walking, standing, grazing, galloping, and trotting. The experimental results showed that our solution achieved very good performance (94.62%) on average on a real-world dataset. Furthermore, the results also showed that our method outperformed the state-of-the-art methods on the same dataset.

Accurate emotion recognition using Bayesian model based EEG sources as dynamic graph convolutional neural network nodes

Due to the effect of emotions on interactions, interpretations, and decisions, automatic detection and analysis of human emotions based on EEG signals has an important role in the treatment of psychiatric diseases. However, the low spatial resolution of EEG recorders poses a challenge. In order to overcome this problem, in this paper we model each emotion by mapping from scalp sensors to brain sources using Bernoulli–Laplace-based Bayesian model. The standard low-resolution electromagnetic tomography (sLORETA) method is used to initialize the source signals in this algorithm. Finally, a dynamic graph convolutional neural network (DGCNN) is used to classify emotional EEG in which the sources of the proposed localization model are considered as the underlying graph nodes. In the proposed method, the relationships between the EEG source signals are encoded in the DGCNN adjacency matrix. Experiments on our EEG dataset recorded at the Brain-Computer Interface Research Laboratory, University of Tabriz as well as publicly available SEED and DEAP datasets show that brain source modeling by the proposed algorithm significantly improves the accuracy of emotion recognition, such that it achieve a classification accuracy of 99.25% during the classification of the two classes of positive and negative emotions. These results represent an absolute 1–2% improvement in terms of classification accuracy over subject-dependent and subject-independent scenarios over the existing approaches.

Accurate ECG Classification Based on Spiking Neural Network and Attentional Mechanism for Real-Time Implementation on Personal Portable Devices

Electrocardiogram (ECG) heartbeat classification plays a vital role in early diagnosis and effective treatment, which provide opportunities for earlier prevention and intervention. In an effort to continuously monitor and detect abnormalities in patients’ ECG signals on portable devices, this paper present a lightweight ECG heartbeat classification method based on a spiking neural network (SNN), a relatively shallow SNN model integrated with a channel-wise attentional module. We further explore the best-optimized architecture, which benefits from leveraging the full advantages of the SNN potential with the attention mechanism to process the classification task at low power and capture prominent features concerning the time, morphology, and multi-channel representations of the ECG signal. Results show that our model achieves overall classification accuracy of 98.26%, sensitivity of 94.75%, and F1 score of 89.09% on the MIT-BIH database, with energy consumption of 346.33 μJ per beat and runtime of 1.37 ms. Moreover, we have conducted multiple experiments to compare against current state-of-the-art methods using their assessment strategies to evaluate our model implementation on FPGA. So far, our work achieves comparable overall performance with all the literature in terms of classification accuracy, energy consumption, and real-time capability.

Hybrid artificial neural network algorithm for air pollution estimation

In recent years, airborne broadcasting has grown more prevalent in cities. Air quality degradation is a severe air pollution issue that exists daily. To forecast the amount of pollutants, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Linear Vector Quantization (LVQ) techniques were utilized. The data set dimensions are defined by the pre-processing procedure and the feature extraction mechanism. The ANN model predicts categorization concentration, allowing the LVQ model to classify direct situations with greater accuracy using explanatory factors. The ANN+LVQ model outperformed other technologies in terms of classification accuracy. The raw data was cleaned to improve the accuracy of the prediction algorithms. The pollutants discovered in the collection are NO2, NOx, O3, Benzene, Xylene, NH3, CO, SO2, PM10, NO, and Toluene. The performance of the recommendation and forecast models were tested in this study using two datasets in two distinct experiments. In urban, rural, and industrial settings, the proposed ANN model is successful in detecting air quality and predicting pollution levels. The ANN-LVQ model obtained 90% percent sensitivity, 97.59% accuracy, and 99.46% specificity with 2.43% error rate. The suggested model's accuracy is much greater than that of other current research models.

A non-destructive methodology for determination of cantaloupe sugar content using machine vision and deep learning.

To determine the maturity of cantaloupe, measuring the soluble solid content (SSC) as the indicator of sugar content based on the refractometric index is commonly practised. This method, however, is destructive and limited to a small number of samples. In this study, the coupling of a convolutional neural network (CNN) with machine vision was proposed in detecting the SSC of cantaloupe. The cantaloupe images were first acquired under controlled and uncontrolled conditions and subsequently fed to the CNN to predict the class to which each cantaloupe belonged. Four hand-crafted classical machine-learning classifiers were used to compare against the performance of the CNN. Experimental results showed that the CNN method significantly outperformed others, with an improvement of >100% being achieved in terms of classification accuracy, considering the data acquired under the uncontrolled environment. The results demonstrated the potential benefit to operationalize CNNs in practice for SSC determination of cantaloupe before harvesting. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

GRU with Dual Attentions for Sensor-Based Human Activity Recognition

Human Activity Recognition (HAR) is nowadays widely used in intelligent perception and medical detection, and the use of traditional neural networks and deep learning methods has made great progress in this field in recent years. However, most of the existing methods assume that the data has independent identical distribution (I.I.D.) and ignore the data variability of different individual volunteers. In addition, most deep learning models are characterized by many parameters and high resources consumption, making it difficult to run in real time on embedded devices. To address these problems, this paper proposes a Gate Recurrent Units (GRU) network fusing the channel attention and the temporal attention for human activity recognition method without I.I.D. By using channel attention to mitigate sensor data bias, GRU and the temporal attention are used to capture important motion moments and aggregate temporal features to reduce model parameters. Experimental results show that our model outperforms existing methods in terms of classification accuracy on datasets without I.I.D., and reduces the number of model parameters and resources consumption, which can be easily used in low-resource embedded devices.

Machine Learning-Based Framework to Predict Finger Movement for Prosthetic Hand

Loss of limb is critical for human life. The prosthetic hand can be an alternate for biological hand up to some extent although it can never mimic the original. This letter presents a machine learning (ML) framework to detect finger movement for the prosthetic hand. The data generated corresponding to different movements of different fingers make the classification problem as multiclass. To address this problem, four ML-based classifiers—K-nearest neighbors, decision tree, random forest, and extreme gradient boosting—have been employed. These classifiers possess inherent property of handling the multiclass classification problem. The employed classifiers have been evaluated for finger movement prediction with respect to precision, recall, F1-score, and accuracy. The experiments show that the XGBoost classifier outperformed the other multiclass classifiers in terms of accuracy.

RFCBF: Enhance the Performance and Stability of Fast Correlation-Based Filter

Feature selection is a preprocessing step that plays a crucial role in the domain of machine learning and data mining. Feature selection methods have been shown to be effective in removing redundant and irrelevant features, improving the learning algorithm’s prediction performance. Among the various methods of feature selection based on redundancy, the fast correlation-based filter (FCBF) is one of the most effective. In this paper, we developed a novel extension of FCBF, called resampling FCBF (RFCBF) that combines resampling technique to improve classification accuracy. We performed comprehensive experiments to compare the RFCBF with other state-of-the-art feature selection methods using three competitive classifiers (K-nearest neighbor, support vector machine, and logistic regression) on 12 publicly available datasets. The experimental results show that the RFCBF algorithm yields significantly better results than previous state-of-the-art methods in terms of classification accuracy and runtime.

Fuzzy KNN Method With Adaptive Nearest Neighbors.

Due to its strong performance in handling uncertain and ambiguous data, the fuzzy k -nearest-neighbor method (FKNN) has realized substantial success in a wide variety of applications. However, its classification performance would be heavily deteriorated if the number k of nearest neighbors was unsuitably fixed for each testing sample. This study examines the feasibility of using only one fixed k value for FKNN on each testing sample. A novel FKNN-based classification method, namely, fuzzy KNN method with adaptive nearest neighbors (A-FKNN), is devised for learning a distinct optimal k value for each testing sample. In the training stage, after applying a sparse representation method on all training samples for reconstruction, A-FKNN learns the optimal k value for each training sample and builds a decision tree (namely, A-FKNN tree) from all training samples with new labels (the learned optimal k values instead of the original labels), in which each leaf node stores the corresponding optimal k value. In the testing stage, A-FKNN identifies the optimal k value for each testing sample by searching the A-FKNN tree and runs FKNN with the optimal k value for each testing sample. Moreover, a fast version of A-FKNN, namely, FA-FKNN, is designed by building the FA-FKNN decision tree, which stores the optimal k value with only a subset of training samples in each leaf node. Experimental results on 32 UCI datasets demonstrate that both A-FKNN and FA-FKNN outperform the compared methods in terms of classification accuracy, and FA-FKNN has a shorter running time.

Fake Reviews Detection Using Supervised Machine Learning

Abstract: With the continuous evolve of E-commerce systems, online reviews are mainly considered as a crucial factor for building and maintaining a good reputation. Moreover, they have an effective role in the decision making process for end users. Usually, a positive review for a target object attracts more customers and lead to high increase in sales. Nowadays, deceptive or fake reviews are deliberately written to build virtual reputation and attracting potential customers. Thus, identifying fake reviews is a vivid and ongoing research area. Identifying fake reviews depends not only on the key features of the reviews but also on the behaviours of the reviewers. This paper proposes a machine learning approach to identify fake reviews. In addition to the features extraction process of the reviews, this paper applies several features engineering to extract various behaviours of the reviewers. The paper compares the performance of several experiments done on a real Yelp dataset of restaurants reviews, we compare the performance of machine learning classifiers; KNN, Naive Bayes (NB), Logistic Regression. The results reveal that Logistic Regression outperforms the rest of classifiers in terms of accuracy achieving best. The results show that the system has better ability to detect a review as fake or original.

Dop-DenseNet: Densely Convolutional Neural Network-Based Gesture Recognition Using a Micro-Doppler Radar

Hand gesture recognition is an efficient and practical solution for the non-contact human–machine interaction in smart devices. To date, vision-based methods are widely used in this research area, but they are susceptible to light conditions. To address this issue, radar-based gesture recognition using micro-Doppler signatures can be applied as an alternative. Accordingly, the use of a novel densely convolutional neural network model, Dop-DenseNet, is proposed in this paper for improving hand gesture recognition in terms of classification accuracy and latency. The model was designed with cross or skip connections in a dense architecture so that the former features, which can be lost in the forward-propagation process, can be reused. We evaluated our model with different numbers of filter channels and experimented with it using the Dop-Net dataset, with different time lengths of input data. As a result, it was found that the model with 64 3 × 3 filters and 200 time bins of micro-Doppler spectrogram data could achieve the best performance trade-off, with 99.87% classification accuracy and 3.1 ms latency. In comparison, our model remarkably outperformed the selected state-of-the-art neural networks (GoogLeNet, Res- Net-50, NasNet-Mobile, and MobileNet-V2) using the same Dop-Net dataset.

Intuitionistic Fuzzy-Based Three-Way Label Enhancement for Multi-Label Classification

Multi-label classification deals with the determination of instance-label associations for unseen instances. Although many margin-based approaches are delicately developed, the uncertainty classifications for those with smaller separation margins remain unsolved. The intuitionistic fuzzy set is an effective tool to characterize the concept of uncertainty, yet it has not been examined for multi-label cases. This paper proposed a novel model called intuitionistic fuzzy three-way label enhancement (IFTWLE) for multi-label classification. The IFTWLE combines label enhancement with an intuitionistic fuzzy set under the framework of three-way decisions. For unseen instances, we generated the pseudo-label for label uncertainty evaluation from a logical label-based model. An intuitionistic fuzzy set-based instance selection principle seamlessly bridges logical label learning and numerical label learning. The principle is hierarchically developed. At the label level, membership and non-membership functions are pair-wisely defined to measure the local uncertainty and generate candidate uncertain instances. After upgrading to the instance level, we select instances from the candidates for label enhancement, whereas they remained unchanged for the remaining. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to combine logical label learning with numerical label learning into a unified framework for minimizing classification uncertainty. Extensive experiments demonstrate that, with the selectively reconstructed label importance, IFTWLE achieves statistically superior over the state-of-the-art multi-label classification algorithms in terms of classification accuracy. The computational complexity of this algorithm is On2mk, where n, m, and k denote the unseen instances count, label count, and average label-specific feature size, respectively.

A Hybrid Deep Learning and Visualization Framework for Pushing Behavior Detection in Pedestrian Dynamics.

Crowded event entrances could threaten the comfort and safety of pedestrians, especially when some pedestrians push others or use gaps in crowds to gain faster access to an event. Studying and understanding pushing dynamics leads to designing and building more comfortable and safe entrances. Researchers—to understand pushing dynamics—observe and analyze recorded videos to manually identify when and where pushing behavior occurs. Despite the accuracy of the manual method, it can still be time-consuming, tedious, and hard to identify pushing behavior in some scenarios. In this article, we propose a hybrid deep learning and visualization framework that aims to assist researchers in automatically identifying pushing behavior in videos. The proposed framework comprises two main components: (i) Deep optical flow and wheel visualization; to generate motion information maps. (ii) A combination of an EfficientNet-B0-based classifier and a false reduction algorithm for detecting pushing behavior at the video patch level. In addition to the framework, we present a new patch-based approach to enlarge the data and alleviate the class imbalance problem in small-scale pushing behavior datasets. Experimental results (using real-world ground truth of pushing behavior videos) demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves an 86% accuracy rate. Moreover, the EfficientNet-B0-based classifier outperforms baseline CNN-based classifiers in terms of accuracy.

A novel human activity recognition architecture: using residual inception ConvLSTM layer

Human activity recognition (HAR) is a very challenging problem that requires identifying an activity performed by a single individual or a group of people observed from spatiotemporal data. Many computer vision applications require a solution to HAR. To name a few, surveillance systems, medical and health care monitoring applications, and smart home assistant devices. The rapid development of machine learning leads to a great advance in HAR solutions. One of these solutions is using ConvLSTM architecture. ConvLSTM architectures have recently been used in many spatiotemporal computer vision applications.In this paper, we introduce a new layer, residual inception convolutional recurrent layer, ResIncConvLSTM, a variation of ConvLSTM layer. Also, a novel architecture to solve HAR using the introduced layer is proposed. Our proposed architecture resulted in an accuracy improvement by 7% from ConvLSTM baseline architecture. The comparisons are held in terms of classification accuracy. The architectures are trained using KTH dataset and tested against both KTH and Weizmann datasets. The architectures are also trained and tested against a subset of UCF Sports Action dataset. Also, experimental results show the effectiveness of our proposed architecture compared to other state-of-the-art architectures.

Intelligent Recognition and Analysis of Negative Emotions of Undergraduates Under COVID-19.

BackgroundThe outbreak and spread of COVID-19 has brought a tremendous impact on undergraduates' study and life, and also caused anxiety, depression, fear and loneliness among undergraduates. If these individual negative emotions are not timely guided and treated, it is easy to cause the amplification of social negative emotions, resulting in individual and collective irrational behavior, and ultimately destroy social stability and trust foundation. Therefore, how to strengthen the analysis and guidance of negative emotions of undergraduates has become an important issue to be urgently solved in the training of undergraduates.MethodThis paper presents a weight and structure double-determination method. Based on this method, a Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNN) classifier is constructed for recognizing negative emotions of undergraduates. After classifying the input psychological crisis intervention scale samples by the RBFNN classifier, recognition of negative emotions for undergraduates are divided into normal, mild depression, moderate depression and severe depression.ExperimentsAfterwards, we analyze negative emotions of undergraduates and give some psychological adjustment strategies. In addition, the experiment results demonstrate that the proposed method has a good performance in terms of classification accuracy, classification time and recognition rate of negative emotions among undergraduates.

Early detection of Parkinson disease using stacking ensemble method

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder that occurs due to corrosion of the substantianigra, located in the thalamic region of the human brain, and is responsible for the transmission of neural signals throughout the human body using brain chemical, termed as “dopamine.” Diagnosis of PD is difficult, as it is often affected by the characteristics of the medical data of the patients, which include the presence of various indicators, imbalance cases of patients’ data records, similar cases of healthy/affected persons, etc. Hence, sometimes the process of diagnosis may also be affected by human error. To overcome this problem some intelligent models have been proposed; however, most of them are single classifier-based models and due to this these models cannot handle noisy and imbalanced data properly and thus sometimes overfit the model. To reduce bias and variance, and to avoid overfitting of a single classifier-based model, this paper proposes an ensemble-based PD diagnosis model, named Ensembled Expert System for Diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease (EESDPD) with relevant features and a simple stacking ensemble technique. The proposed EESDPD aggregates diverse assumptions for making the prediction. The performance of the proposed EESDPD is compared with the performances of logistic regression, SVM, Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, XGBoost, simple Decision Tree, B-TDS-PD and B-TESM-PD in terms of classification accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score measures.

Coronary Artery Disease Detection Model Based on Class Balancing Methods and LightGBM Algorithm

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a disease with high mortality and disability. By 2019, there were 197 million CAD patients in the world. Additionally, the number of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) owing to CAD reached 182 million. It is widely known that the early and accurate diagnosis of CAD is the most efficient method to reduce the damage of CAD. In medical practice, coronary angiography is considered to be the most reliable basis for CAD diagnosis. However, unfortunately, due to the limitation of inspection equipment and expert resources, many low- and middle-income countries do not have the ability to perform coronary angiography. This has led to a large loss of life and medical burden. Therefore, many researchers expect to realize the accurate diagnosis of CAD based on conventional medical examination data with the help of machine learning and data mining technology. The goal of this study is to propose a model for early, accurate and rapid detection of CAD based on common medical test data. This model took the classical logistic regression algorithm, which is the most commonly used in medical model research as the classifier. The advantages of feature selection and feature combination of tree models were used to solve the problem of manual feature engineering in logical regression. At the same time, in order to solve the class imbalance problem in Z-Alizadeh Sani dataset, five different class balancing methods were applied to balance the dataset. In addition, according to the characteristics of the dataset, we also adopted appropriate preprocessing methods. These methods significantly improved the classification performance of logistic regression classifier in terms of accuracy, recall, precision, F1 score, specificity and AUC when used for CAD detection. The best accuracy, recall, F1 score, precision, specificity and AUC were 94.7%, 94.8%, 94.8%, 95.3%, 94.5% and 0.98, respectively. Experiments and results have confirmed that, according to common medical examination data, our proposed model can accurately identify CAD patients in the early stage of CAD. Our proposed model can be used to help clinicians make diagnostic decisions in clinical practice.

Study on the Classification Method of Rice Leaf Blast Levels Based on Fusion Features and Adaptive-Weight Immune Particle Swarm Optimization Extreme Learning Machine Algorithm.

Leaf blast is a disease of rice leaves caused by the Pyricularia oryzae. It is considered a significant disease is affecting rice yield and quality and causing economic losses to food worldwide. Early detection of rice leaf blast is essential for early intervention and limiting the spread of the disease. To quickly and non-destructively classify rice leaf blast levels for accurate leaf blast detection and timely control. This study used hyperspectral imaging technology to obtain hyperspectral image data of rice leaves. The descending dimension methods got rice leaf disease characteristics of different disease classes, and the disease characteristics obtained by screening were used as model inputs to construct a model for early detection of leaf blast disease. First, three methods, ElasticNet, principal component analysis loadings (PCA loadings), and successive projections algorithm (SPA), were used to select the wavelengths of spectral features associated with leaf blast, respectively. Next, the texture features of the images were extracted using a gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and the texture features with high correlation were screened by the Pearson correlation analysis. Finally, an adaptive-weight immune particle swarm optimization extreme learning machine (AIPSO-ELM) based disease level classification method is proposed to further improve the model classification accuracy. It was also compared and analyzed with a support vector machine (SVM) and extreme learning machine (ELM). The results show that the disease level classification model constructed using a combination of spectral characteristic wavelengths and texture features is significantly better than a single disease feature in terms of classification accuracy. Among them, the model built with ElasticNet + TFs has the highest classification accuracy, with OA and Kappa greater than 90 and 87%, respectively. Meanwhile, the AIPSO-ELM proposed in this study has higher classification accuracy for leaf blast level classification than SVM and ELM classification models. In particular, the AIPSO-ELM model constructed with ElasticNet+TFs as features obtained the best classification performance, with OA and Kappa of 97.62 and 96.82%, respectively. In summary, the combination of spectral characteristic wavelength and texture features can significantly improve disease classification accuracy. At the same time, the AIPSO-ELM classification model proposed in this study has sure accuracy and stability, which can provide a reference for rice leaf blast disease detection.

Performance Evaluation of Sentiment Analysis on Balanced and Imbalanced Dataset Using Ensemble Approach

Background: Class imbalance is often discussed as a strenuous task in the realm of sentiment analysis. In an imbalanced classification, few minority class instances are unable to provide sufficient information, therefore direct learning from an unbalanced dataset can produce unsatisfactory results. This work aims to address the problem of class imbalance. Methods: At primary level this study uses a novel Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) for balancing the dataset and then proposes an ensemble model, named Ensemble Bagging Support Vector Machine (EBSVM) for opinion mining. To measure the performance of the particular approach, numerous analyses are conducted on both imbalanced and balanced datasets. Then the work compares the effectiveness of the suggested model with three base classifiers (Nave Bayes (NB), Decision Tree (DT), and Support Vector Machine (SVM)). The customer reviews for restaurants is chose as the dataset for this work. Accuracy, precision, recall and F-measure are used as metrics for evaluation. Findings: According to the results, the suggested EBSVM model excels all other individual classifiers with the imbalanced and SMOTE balanced dataset. The balanced EBSVM classifier improves the imbalanced EBSVM Classifier in terms of accuracy. Precision, recall and F-measure of the minority class in the imbalanced classifiers have been improved in balanced Classifiers. Novelty: The performance of opinion mining classifiers for imbalanced and balanced datasets is evaluated in this paper. The work examines not only general opinions, but also specific aspects such as food, service, ambiance, quality, and price. Comparing the suggested model with existing classification algorithms in the literature, it has found that it outperformed the other models.
