Medical Issues

Computational Intelligence methods have replaced almost all real world applications with high accuracy within the given time period. Machine Learning approaches like classification, feature selection, feature extraction have solved many problems of different domain. They use different ML models implemented with suitable ML tool or combination of tools from NN (Neural Network), SVM (Support Vector Machine), DL (Deep Learning), ELM (Extreme Learning Machine). The model is used for training with known data along with ML algorithms (fuzzy logic, genetic algorithm) to optimize the accuracy for different medical issues for example gene expression and image segmentation for information extraction and disease diagnosis, health monitoring, disease treatment. Most of the medical problems are solved using recent advances in AI (Artificial Intelligence) technologies with the biomedical systems development (e.g., Knowledge based Decision Support Systems) and AI technologies with medical informatics science. AI based methods like machine learning algorithms implemented models are increasingly found in real life applications ex. healthcare, natural calamity detection and forecasting. There are the expert systems handled by experts for knowledge gain which is used in decision making applications. The ML models are found in different medical applications like disease diagnosis (ex. cancer prediction, diabetics disease prediction) and for treatment of diseases (ex. in diabetics disease the reduction in mean glucose concentration following intermittent gastric feeds). The feature selection ML method is used for EEG classification for detection of the severity of the disease in heart related diseases and for identification of genes in different disorder like autism disorder. The ML models are found in health record systems. There are other applications of ML approaches found in image segmentation, tissue extraction, image fragmentation for disease diagnosis (ex. lesion detection in breast cancer for malignancy) and then treatment of those diseases. ML models are found in mobile health treatment, treatment of psychology patients, treatment of dumb patients etc. Medical data handling is the vital part of health care systems for the development of AI systems which can again be solved by machine learning approaches. The ML approaches for medical issues have used ensemble methods or combinations of machine learning tools and machine learning algorithms to optimize the result with good accuracy value at a faster rate.

The Impact

The motion picture industry is one of the largest industries worldwide and has significant importance in the global economy. Considering the high stakes and high risks in the industry, forecast models and decision support systems are gaining importance. Several attempts have been made to estimate the theatrical performance of a movie before or at the early stages of its release. Nevertheless, these models are mostly used for predicting domestic performances and the industry still struggles to predict box office performances in overseas markets. In this study, the aim is to design a forecast model using different machine learning algorithms to estimate the theatrical success of US movies in Turkey. From various sources, a dataset of 1559 movies is constructed. Firstly, independent variables are grouped as pre-release, distributor type, and international distribution based on their characteristic. The number of attendances is discretized into three classes. Four popular machine learning algorithms, artificial neural networks, decision tree regression and gradient boosting tree and random forest are employed, and the impact of each group is observed by compared by the performance models. Then the number of target classes is increased into five and eight and results are compared with the previously developed models in the literature.

The online English teaching system has certain requirements for the intelligent scoring system, and the most difficult stage of intelligent scoring in the English test is to score the English composition through the intelligent model. In order to improve the intelligence of English composition scoring, based on machine learning algorithms, this study combines intelligent image recognition technology to improve machine learning algorithms, and proposes an improved MSER-based character candidate region extraction algorithm and a convolutional neural network-based pseudo-character region filtering algorithm. In addition, in order to verify whether the algorithm model proposed in this paper meets the requirements of the group text, that is, to verify the feasibility of the algorithm, the performance of the model proposed in this study is analyzed through design experiments. Moreover, the basic conditions for composition scoring are input into the model as a constraint model. The research results show that the algorithm proposed in this paper has a certain practical effect, and it can be applied to the English assessment system and the online assessment system of the homework evaluation system algorithm system.

Simple Task

Detecting some patterns is a simple task for humans, but nearly impossible for current machine learning algorithms.  Here, the "checkerboard" pattern is examined, where human prediction nears 100% and machine prediction drops significantly below 50%.
