The ongoing sound change between /l/ and /n/ in Gan Chinese: Random forest classification

Wheat is the basic staple food, largely grown, widely used and highly demanded. It is used in multiple food products which are served as fundamental constituent to human body. Various regional economies are partially or fully dependent upon wheat production. Estimation of wheat area is essential to predict its contribution in regional economy. This study presents a comparative analysis of optical and active imagery for estimation of area under wheat cultivation. Sentinel-1 data was downloaded in Ground Range Detection (GRD) format and applied the Random Forest Classification using Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP) tools. We obtained a Sentinel-2 image for the month of March and applied supervised classification in Erdas Imagine 14. The random forest classification results of Sentinel-1 show that the total area under investigation was 1089km2 which was further subdivided in three classes including wheat (551km2), built-up (450 km2) and the water body (89 km2). Supervised classification results of Sentinel-2 data show that the area under wheat crop was 510 km2, however the built-up and waterbody were 477 km2, 102 km2 respectively. The integrated map of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 show that the area under wheat was 531 km2 and the other features including water body and the built-up area were 95 km2 and 463 km2 respectively. We applied a Kappa coefficient to Sentinel-2, Sentinel-1 and Integrated Maps and found an accuracy of 71%, 78% and 85% respectively. We found that remotely sensed algorithms of classifications are reliable for future predictions.

AbstrakPenilaian kredit telah menjadi salah satu cara utama bagi sebuah lembaga keuangan untuk menilai resiko kredit, meningkatkan arus kas, mengurangi kemungkinan resiko dan membuat keputusan manajerial. Salah satu permasalahan yang dihadapai pada penilaian kredit yaitu adanya ketidakseimbangan distribusi dataset. Metode untuk mengatasi ketidakseimbangan kelas yaitu dengan metode resampling, seperti menggunakan Oversampling, undersampling dan hibrida yaitu dengan menggabungkan kedua pendekatan sampling. Metode yang diusulkan pada penelitian ini adalah penerapan metode Random Over-Under Sampling Random Forest untuk meningkatkan kinerja akurasi klasifikasi penilaian kredit pada dataset German Credit. Hasil pengujian menunjukan bahwa klasifikasi tanpa melalui proses resampling menghasilkan kinerja akurasi rata-rata 70 % pada semua classifier. Metode Random Forest memiliki nilai akurasi yang lebih baik dibandingkan dengan beberapa metode lainnya dengan nilai akurasi sebesar 0,76 atau 76%. Sedangkan klasifikasi dengan penerapan metode Random Over-under sampling Random Forest dapat meningkatkan kinerja akurasi sebesar 14,1% dengan nilai akurasi sebesar 0,901 atau 90,1 %. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa penerapan resampling dengan metode Random Over-Under Sampling pada algoritma Random Forest dapat meningkatkan kinerja akurasi secara efektif pada klasifikasi tidak seimbang untuk penilaian kredit pada dataset German Credit. Kata kunci: Penilaian Kredit, Random Forest, Klasifikasi, ketidakseimbangan kelas, Random Over-Under Sampling AbstractCredit scoring has become one of the main ways for a financial institution to assess credit risk, improve cash flow, reduce the possibility of risk and make managerial decisions. One of the problems faced by credit scoring is the imbalance in the distribution of datasets. The method to overcome class imbalances is the resampling method, such as using Oversampling, undersampling and hybrids by combining both sampling approaches. The method proposed in this study is the application of the Random Over-Under Sampling Random Forest method to improve the accuracy of the credit scoring classification performance on German Credit dataset. The test results show that the classification without going through the resampling process results in an average accuracy performance of 70% for all classifiers. The Random Forest method has a better accuracy value compared to some other methods with an accuracy value of 0.76 or 76%. While classification by applying the Random Over-under sampling + Random Forest method can improve accuracy performance 14.1% with an accuracy value of 0.901 or 90.1%. The results showed that the application of resampling using Random Over-Under Sampling method in the Random Forest algorithm can improve accuracy performance effectively on an unbalanced classification for credit scoring on German Credit dataset.

In recent years, the application of single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) has become more and more popular in fields such as biology and medical research. Analyzing scRNA-seq data can discover complex cell populations and infer single-cell trajectories in cell development. Clustering is one of the most important methods to analyze scRNA-seq data. In this paper, we focus on improving scRNA-seq clustering through gene selection, which also reduces the dimensionality of scRNA-seq data. Studies have shown that gene selection for scRNA-seq data can improve clustering accuracy. Therefore, it is important to select genes with cell type specificity. Gene selection not only helps to reduce the dimensionality of scRNA-seq data, but also can improve cell type identification in combination with clustering methods. Here, we proposed RFCell, a supervised gene selection method, which is based on permutation and random forest classification. We first use RFCell and three existing gene selection methods to select gene sets on 10 scRNA-seq data sets. Then, three classical clustering algorithms are used to cluster the cells obtained by these gene selection methods. We found that the gene selection performance of RFCell was better than other gene selection methods.
