Physical activity is essential for physical and mental health, and its absence is highly associated with severe health conditions and disorders. Therefore, tracking activities of daily living can help promote quality of life. Wearable sensors in this regard can provide a reliable and economical means of tracking such activities, and such sensors are readily available in smartphones and watches. This study is the first of its kind to develop a wearable sensor-based physical activity classification system using a special class of supervised machine learning approaches called boosting algorithms. The study presents the performance analysis of several boosting algorithms (extreme gradient boosting—XGB, light gradient boosting machine—LGBM, gradient boosting—GB, cat boosting—CB and AdaBoost) in a fair and unbiased performance way using uniform dataset, feature set, feature selection method, performance metric and cross-validation techniques. The study utilizes the Smartphone-based dataset of thirty individuals. The results showed that the proposed method could accurately classify the activities of daily living with very high performance (above 90%). These findings suggest the strength of the proposed system in classifying activity of daily living using only the smartphone sensor’s data and can assist in reducing the physical inactivity patterns to promote a healthier lifestyle and wellbeing.

Glioblastoma Multiforme is a very aggressive type of brain tumor. Due to spatial and temporal intra-tissue inhomogeneity, location and the extent of the cancer tissue, it is difficult to detect and dissect the tumor regions. In this paper, we propose survival prognosis models using four regressors operating on handcrafted image-based and radiomics features. We hypothesize that the radiomics shape features have the highest correlation with survival prediction. The proposed approaches were assessed on the Brain Tumor Segmentation (BraTS-2020) challenge dataset. The highest accuracy of image features with random forest regressor approach was 51.5\% for the training and 51.7\% for the validation dataset. The gradient boosting regressor with shape features gave an accuracy of 91.5\% and 62.1\% on training and validation datasets respectively. It is better than the BraTS 2020 survival prediction challenge winners on the training and validation datasets. Our work shows that handcrafted features exhibit a strong correlation with survival prediction. The consensus based regressor with gradient boosting and radiomics shape features is the best combination for survival prediction.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to select the appropriate forecasting model at the retail stage for selected vegetables on the basis of performance analysis. Design/methodology/approach Various forecasting models such as the Box–Jenkins-based auto-regressive integrated moving average model and machine learning-based algorithms such as long short-term memory (LSTM) networks, support vector regression (SVR), random forest regression, gradient boosting regression (GBR) and extreme GBR (XGBoost/XGBR) were proposed and applied (i.e. modeling, training, testing and predicting) at the retail stage for selected vegetables to forecast demand. The performance analysis (i.e. forecasting error analysis) was carried out to select the appropriate forecasting model at the retail stage for selected vegetables. Findings From the obtained results for a case environment, it was observed that the machine learning algorithms, namely LSTM and SVR, produced the better results in comparison with other different demand forecasting models. Research limitations/implications The results obtained from the case environment cannot be generalized. However, it may be used for forecasting of different agriculture produces at the retail stage, capturing their demand environment. Practical implications The implementation of LSTM and SVR for the case situation at the retail stage will reduce the forecast error, daily retail inventory and fresh produce wastage and will increase the daily revenue. Originality/value The demand forecasting model selection for agriculture produce at the retail stage on the basis of performance analysis is a unique study where both traditional and non-traditional models were analyzed and compared.

<p>The improvement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) can help radiologists in tumor diagnostics without invasive measures. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a very useful method for diagnosis of tumors in human brain. In this paper, brain MRI images have been analyzed to detect the regions containing tumors and classify these regions into three different tumor categories: meningioma, glioma, and pituitary. This paper presents the implementation and comparison of various enhanced ML algorithms for the detection and classification of brain tumors. A brain tumor is the growth of abnormal cells in the human brain. Brain tumors can be cancerous or non-cancerous. Cancerous or malignant brain tumors can be life threatening. Hence, detection and classification of brain tumors at an early stage is extremely important. In this paper, enhanced ML algorithms have been implemented to predict the presence or the absence of brain tumors using binary classification and to predict whether a patient has brain tumor or not and if he does, detect the type of brain tumor using multi-class classification. The dataset that has been used to perform the binary classification task comprises of two types of brain MRI images with tumor and without tumor. Here nine ML algorithms namely, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), Decision Tree (DT) classifier, Random Forest classifier, XGBoost classifier, Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) classifier and Gradient Boosting classifier have been used to classify the MRI images. A comparative analysis of the ML algorithms has been performed based on a few performance metrics such as accuracy, recall, and precision, F1-score, AUC-ROC curve and AUC-PR curve. Gradient Boosting classifier has outperformed all the other algorithms with an accuracy of 92.4%, recall of 94.4%, precision of 85%, F1-score of 89.5%, AUC-ROC of 97.2% and an AUC-PR of 91.4%. To address the multi-class classification problem, four ML algorithms namely, SVM, KNN, Random Forest classifier and XGBoost classifier have been employed. In this case, the dataset that has been used consists of four types of brain MRI images with glioma tumor, meningioma tumor, and pituitary tumor and with no tumor. The performances of the ML algorithms have been compared based on accuracy, recall, precision and the F1-score. XGBoost classifier has surpassed all the other algorithms in terms of accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score. XGBoost has produced an accuracy of 90%, precision of 90%, and recall of 90% and F1-score of 90%.</p>
