AbstractMachine learning can be used to find meaningful patterns characterizing individual differences. Deploying a machine learning classifier fed by local features derived from graph analysis of electroencephalographic (EEG) data, we aimed at designing a neurobiologically-based classifier to differentiate two groups of children, one group with and the other group without dyslexia, in a robust way. We used EEG resting-state data of 29 dyslexics and 15 typical readers in grade 3, and calculated weighted connectivity matrices for multiple frequency bands using the phase lag index (PLI). From the connectivity matrices, we derived weighted connectivity graphs. A number of local network measures were computed from those graphs, and 37 False Discovery Rate (FDR) corrected features were selected as input to a Support Vector Machine (SVM) and a common K Nearest Neighbors (KNN) classifier. Cross validation was employed to assess the machine-learning performance and random shuffling to assure the performance appropriateness of the classifier and avoid features overfitting. The best performance was for the SVM using a polynomial kernel. Children were classified with 95% accuracy based on local network features from different frequency bands. The automatic classification techniques applied to EEG graph measures showed to be both robust and reliable in distinguishing between typical and dyslexic readers.

The increased usage of the Internet and social networks allowed and enabled people to express their views, which have generated an increasing attention lately. Sentiment Analysis (SA) techniques are used to determine the polarity of information, either positive or negative, toward a given topic, including opinions. In this research, we have introduced a machine learning approach based on Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naïve Bayes (NB) and Random Forest (RF) classifiers, to find and classify extreme opinions in Arabic reviews. To achieve this, a dataset of 1500 Arabic reviews was collected from Google Play Store. In addition, a two-stage Classification process was applied to classify the reviews. In the first stage, we built a binary classifier to sort out positive from negative reviews. In the second stage, however we applied a binary classification mechanism based on a set of proposed rules that distinguishes extreme positive from positive reviews, and extreme negative from negative reviews. Four major experiments were conducted with a total of 10 different sub experiments to fulfill the two-stage process using different X-validation schemas and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency feature selection method. Obtained results have indicated that SVM was the best during the first stage classification with 30% testing data, and NB was the best with 20% testing data. The results of the second stage classification indicated that SVM has scored better results in identifying extreme positive reviews when dealing with the positive dataset with an overall accuracy of 68.7% and NB showed better accuracy results in identifying extreme negative reviews when dealing with the negative dataset, with an overall accuracy of 72.8%.

Machine Learning Classification

Traffic accident is a very difficult problem to handle on a large scale in a country. Indonesia is one of the most populated, developing countries that use vehicles for daily activities as its main transportation.  It is also the country with the largest number of car users in Southeast Asia, so driving safety needs to be considered. Using machine learning classification method to determine whether a driver is driving safely or not can help reduce the risk of driving accidents. We created a detection system to classify whether the driver is driving safely or unsafely using trip sensor data, which include Gyroscope, Acceleration, and GPS. The classification methods used in this study are Random Forest (RF) classification algorithm, Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) by improving data preprocessing using feature extraction and oversampling methods. This study shows that RF has the best performance with 98% accuracy, 98% precision, and 97% sensitivity using the proposed preprocessing stages compared to SVM or MLP.

The Impact

Air conditioning system is a complex system and consumes the most energy in a building. Any fault in the system operation such as cooling tower fan faulty, compressor failure, damper stuck, etc. could lead to energy wastage and reduction in the system’s coefficient of performance (COP). Due to the complexity of the air conditioning system, detecting those faults is hard as it requires exhaustive inspections. This paper consists of two parts; i) to investigate the impact of different faults related to the air conditioning system on COP and ii) to analyse the performances of machine learning algorithms to classify those faults. Three supervised learning classifier models were developed, which were deep learning, support vector machine (SVM) and multi-layer perceptron (MLP). The performances of each classifier were investigated in terms of six different classes of faults. Results showed that different faults give different negative impacts on the COP. Also, the three supervised learning classifier models able to classify all faults for more than 94%, and MLP produced the highest accuracy and precision among all.

Breast Cancer (BC) is amongst the most common and leading causes of deaths in women throughout the world. Recently, classification and data analysis tools are being widely used in the medical field for diagnosis, prognosis and decision making to help lower down the risks of people dying or suffering from diseases. Advanced machine learning methods have proven to give hope for patients as this has helped the doctors in early detection of diseases like Breast Cancer that can be fatal, in support with providing accurate outcomes. However, the results highly depend on the techniques used for feature selection and classification which will produce a strong machine learning model. In this paper, a performance comparison is conducted using four classifiers which are Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Random Forest on the Wisconsin Breast Cancer dataset to spot the most effective predictors. The main goal is to apply best machine learning classification methods to predict the Breast Cancer as benign or malignant using terms such as accuracy, f-measure, precision and recall. Experimental results show that Random forest is proven to achieve the highest accuracy of 99.26% on this dataset and features, while SVM and KNN show 97.78% and 97.04% accuracy respectively. MLP shows the least accuracy of 94.07%. All the experiments are conducted using RStudio as the data mining tool platform.

AbstractSemi-supervised machine learning post-processors critically improve peptide identification of shot-gun proteomics data. Such post-processors accept the peptide-spectrum matches (PSMs) and feature vectors resulting from a database search, train a machine learning classifier, and recalibrate PSMs using the trained parameters, often yielding significantly more identified peptides across q-value thresholds. However, current state-of-the-art post-processors rely on shallow machine learning methods, such as support vector machines. In contrast, the powerful training capabilities of deep learning models have displayed superior performance to shallow models in an ever-growing number of other fields. In this work, we show that deep models significantly improve the recalibration of PSMs compared to the most accurate and widely-used post-processors, such as Percolator and PeptideProphet. Furthermore, we show that deep learning is able to adaptively analyze complex datasets and features for more accurate universal post-processing, leading to both improved Prosit analysis and markedly better recalibration of recently developed database-search functions.

BACKGROUND Garlic-related misinformation is prevalent whenever a virus outbreak occurs. Again, with the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), garlic-related misinformation is spreading through social media sites, including Twitter. Machine learning-based approaches can be used to detect misinformation from vast tweets. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to develop machine learning algorithms for detecting misinformation on garlic and COVID-19 in Twitter. METHODS This study used 5,929 original tweets mentioning garlic and COVID-19. Tweets were manually labeled as misinformation, accurate information, and others. We tested the following algorithms: k-nearest neighbors; random forest; support vector machine (SVM) with linear, radial, and polynomial kernels; and neural network. Features for machine learning included user-based features (verified account, user type, number of followers, and follower rate) and text-based features (uniform resource locator, negation, sentiment score, Latent Dirichlet Allocation topic probability, number of retweets, and number of favorites). A model with the highest accuracy in the training dataset (70% of overall dataset) was tested using a test dataset (30% of overall dataset). Predictive performance was measured using overall accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and balanced accuracy. RESULTS SVM with the polynomial kernel model showed the highest accuracy of 0.670. The model also showed a balanced accuracy of 0.757, sensitivity of 0.819, and specificity of 0.696 for misinformation. Important features in the misinformation and accurate information classes included topic 4 (common myths), topic 13 (garlic-specific myths), number of followers, topic 11 (misinformation on social media), and follower rate. Topic 3 (cooking recipes) was the most important feature in the others class. CONCLUSIONS Our SVM model showed good performance in detecting misinformation. The results of our study will help detect misinformation related to garlic and COVID-19. It could also be applied to prevent misinformation related to dietary supplements in the event of a future outbreak of a disease other than COVID-19.

Abstract. Machine vision technology coupled with uniform illumination is now widely used for automatic sorting and grading of apples and other fruits, but it still does not have satisfactory performance for defect detection because of the large variety of defects, some of which are difficult to detect under uniform illumination. Structured-illumination reflectance imaging (SIRI) offers a new modality for imaging by using sinusoidally modulated structured illumination to obtain two sets of independent images: direct component (DC), which corresponds to conventional uniform illumination, and amplitude component (AC), which is unique for structured illumination. The objective of this study was to develop machine learning classification algorithms using DC and AC images and their combinations for enhanced detection of surface and subsurface defects of apples. A multispectral SIRI system with two phase-shifted sinusoidal illumination patterns was used to acquire images of ‘Delicious’ and ‘Golden Delicious’ apples with various types of surface and subsurface defects. DC and AC images were extracted through demodulation of the acquired images and were then enhanced using fast bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition and subsequent image reconstruction. Defect detection algorithms were developed using random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and convolutional neural network (CNN), for DC, AC, and ratio (AC divided by DC) images and their combinations. Results showed that AC images were superior to DC images for detecting subsurface defects, DC images were overall better than AC images for detecting surface defects, and ratio images were comparable to, or better than, DC and AC images for defect detection. The ensemble of DC, AC, and ratio images resulted in significantly better detection accuracies over using them individually. Among the three classifiers, CNN performed the best, with 98% detection accuracies for both varieties of apples, followed by SVM and RF. This research demonstrated that SIRI, coupled with a machine learning algorithm, can be a new, versatile, and effective modality for fruit defect detection. Keywords: Apple, Defect, Bi-dimensional empirical mode decomposition, Machine learning, Structured illumination.

Abstract Background The acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) is the most important cause of mortality in patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Given that it occurs at the stage of severe tissue damage, its diagnosis is late. With the advancement of machine learning (ML), promising real-time models to predict aGvHD have emerged. Objective This article aims to synthesize the literature on ML classification algorithms for predicting aGvHD, highlighting algorithms and important predictor variables used. Methods A systemic review of ML classification algorithms used to predict aGvHD was performed using a search of the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Springer, and IEEE Xplore databases undertaken up to April 2019 based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statements. The studies with a focus on using the ML classification algorithms in the process of predicting of aGvHD were considered. Results After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 14 studies were selected for evaluation. The results of the current analysis showed that the algorithms used were Artificial Neural Network (79%), Support Vector Machine (50%), Naive Bayes (43%), k-Nearest Neighbors (29%), Regression (29%), and Decision Trees (14%), respectively. Also, many predictor variables have been used in these studies so that we have divided them into more abstract categories, including biomarkers, demographics, infections, clinical, genes, transplants, drugs, and other variables. Conclusion Each of these ML algorithms has a particular characteristic and different proposed predictors. Therefore, it seems these ML algorithms have a high potential for predicting aGvHD if the process of modeling is performed correctly.

Early detection of pancreatic cancer is difficult, and thus many cases of pancreatic cancer are diagnosed late. When pancreatic cancer is detected, the cancer is usually well developed. Machine learning is an approach that is part of artificial intelligence and can detect pancreatic cancer early. This paper proposes a machine learning approach with the twin support vector machine (TWSVM) method as a new approach to detecting pancreatic cancer early. TWSVM aims to find two symmetry planes such that each plane has a distance close to one data class and as far as possible from another data class. TWSVM is fast in building a model and has good generalizations. However, TWSVM requires kernel functions to operate in the feature space. The kernel functions commonly used are the linear kernel, polynomial kernel, and radial basis function (RBF) kernel. This paper uses the TWSVM method with these kernels and compares the best kernel for use by TWSVM to detect pancreatic cancer early. In this paper, the TWSVM model with each kernel is evaluated using a 10-fold cross validation. The results obtained are that TWSVM based on the kernel is able to detect pancreatic cancer with good performance. However, the best kernel obtained is the RBF kernel, which produces an accuracy of 98%, a sensitivity of 97%, a specificity of 100%, and a running time of around 1.3408 s.

Many different studies are in progress to analyze the content created by the users on social media due to its influence and social ripple effect. Various content created on social media has pieces of information and user’s sentiments about social issues. This study aims to analyze people’s sentiments about the impact of technology on employment and advancements in technologies and build a machine learning classifier to classify the sentiments. People are getting nervous, depressed and even doing suicides due to unemployment; hence, it is essential to explore this relatively new area of research. The study has two main objectives 1) to preprocess text collected from Twitter concerning the impact of technology on employment and analyze its sentiment, 2) to evaluate the performance of machine learning Naïve Bayes (NB) classifier on the text. To achieve this, a methodology is proposed that includes 1) data collection and preprocessing 2) analyze sentiment, 3) building machine learning classifier and 4) compare the performance of NB and support vector machine (SVM). NB and SVM achieved 87.18% and 82.05% accuracy respectively. The study found that 65% of the people hold negative sentiment regarding the impact of technology on employment and technological advancements; hence people must acquire new skills to minimize the effect of structural unemployment.
