AbstractWith the growing number of biomedical papers published each year, keeping up with relevant literature has become increasingly important, and yet more challenging. SciReader (www.scireader.com) is a cloud-based personalized recommender system that specifically aims to assist biomedical researchers and clinicians identify publications of interest to them. SciReader uses topic modeling and other machine learning algorithms to provide users with recommendations that are recent, relevant, and of high quality1.

Today the amount of information in the internet growth very rapidly and people need some instruments to find and access appropriate information. One of such tools is called recommendation system. Recommendation systems help to navigate quickly and receive necessary information. Many of us find it difficult to decide which movie to watch and so we decided to make a recommender system for us to better judge which movie we are more likely to love. In this project we are going to use Machine Learning Algorithms to recommend movies to users based on genres and user ratings. Recommendation system attempt to predict the preference or rating that a user would give to an item.

<p>In the 21st century, University educations are becoming a key pillar of social and economic life. It plays a major role not only in the educational process but also in the ensuring of two important things which are a prosperous career and financial security. However, predicting university admission can be especially difficult because the students are not aware of admission requirements. For that reason, the main purpose of this research work is to provide a recommender system for early predicting university admission based on four Machine Learning algorithms namely Linear Regression, Decision Tree, Support Vector Regression, and Random Forest Regression. The experimental results showed that the Random Forest Regression is the most suitable Machine Learning algorithm for predicting university admission. Also, the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the most important parameter that influences the chance of admission.</p>

The role of recommender system is very vital in recent times for a lot of individuals. It helps in taking decisions without exploring physically. Broadly there are two types of recommender system: Content based and Collaborative Filtering. The first one focus on user’s history and takes decisions. But there could be times when decisions based on only user history is not sufficient. For this, there is a need to analyze many parameters influencing the decision such as previous history, Age, gender, location etc. In the second approach it finds similar group of users based on several parameters and then takes decisions. Over the last few decades machine learning algorithms have proved their worth in this area because of their ability to learn from the given data and identify various hidden patterns. With this learning, these algorithms are able to generalize very well for unknown data. In this research work, a survey on three different machine learning based collaborative filtering methods are presented using Movie Lens dataset. The comparison of all three methods based on RMSE and MAE error is also discussed.

Abstract Background: The typical approach to literature identification involves two discrete and successive steps: (i) formulating a search strategy (i.e., a set of Boolean queries) and (ii) manually identifying the relevant citations in the corpus returned by the query. We have developed a literature identification system (Pythia) that combines the query formulation and citation screening steps and uses modern approaches for text encoding (dense text embeddings) to represent the text of the citations in a form that can be used by information retrieval and machine learning algorithms.Methods: Pythia incorporates a set of natural-language questions with machine-learning algorithms to rank all PubMed citations based on relevance. Pythia returns the 100 top-ranked citations for all questions combined. These 100 articles are exported, and a human screener adjudicates the relevance of each abstract and tags words that indicate relevance. The “curated” articles are then exploited by Pythia to refine the search and re-rank the abstracts, and a new set of 100 abstracts is exported and screened/tagged, until convergence (i.e., no other relevant abstracts are retrieved) or for a set number of iterations (batches). Pythia performance was assessed using seven systematic reviews (three prospectively and four retrospectively). Sensitivity, precision, and the number needed to read were calculated for each review. Results: The ability of Pythia to identify the relevant articles (sensitivity) varied across reviews from a low of 0.09 for a sleep apnea review to a high of 0.58 for a diverticulitis review. The number of abstracts that a reviewer had to read to find one relevant abstract (NNR) was lower than in the manually screened project in four reviews, higher in two, and had mixed results in one. The reviews that had greater overall sensitivity retrieved more relevant citations in early batches, but neither study design, study size, nor specific key question significantly affected retrieval across all reviews.Conclusions: Future research should explore ways to encode domain knowledge in query formulation, possibly by incorporating a "reasoning" aspect to Pythia to elicit more contextual information and leveraging ontologies and knowledge bases to better enrich the questions used in the search.
