In recent years strokes are one of the leading causes of death by affecting the central nervous system. Among different types of strokes, ischemic and hemorrhagic majorly damages the central nervous system. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), globally 3% of the population are affected by subarachnoid hemorrhage, 10% with intracerebral hemorrhage, and the majority of 87% with ischemic stroke. In this research work, Machine Learning techniques are applied in identifying, classifying, and predicting the stroke from medical information. The existing research is limited in predicting risk factors pertained to various types of strokes. To address this limitation a Stroke Prediction (SPN) algorithm is proposed by using the improvised random forest in analyzing the levels of risks obtained within the strokes. This research of the Stroke Predictor (SPR) model using machine learning techniques improved the prediction accuracy to 96.97% when compared with the existing models.

Background and Introduction: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that has emerged as a serious public health issue worldwide. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), without interventions, the number of diabetic incidences is expected to be at least 629 million by 2045. Uncontrolled diabetes gradually leads to progressive damage to eyes, heart, kidneys, blood vessels and nerves. Method: The paper presents a critical review of existing statistical and Artificial Intelligence (AI) based machine learning techniques with respect to DM complications namely retinopathy, neuropathy and nephropathy. The statistical and machine learning analytic techniques are used to structure the subsequent content review. Result: It has been inferred that statistical analysis can help only in inferential and descriptive analysis whereas, AI based machine learning models can even provide actionable prediction models for faster and accurate diagnose of complications associated with DM. Conclusion: The integration of AI based analytics techniques like machine learning and deep learning in clinical medicine will result in improved disease management through faster disease detection and cost reduction for disease treatment.


The Intrusion is a major threat to unauthorized data or legal network using the legitimate user identity or any of the back doors and vulnerabilities in the network. IDS mechanisms are developed to detect the intrusions at various levels. The objective of the research work is to improve the Intrusion Detection System performance by applying machine learning techniques based on decision trees for detection and classification of attacks. The methodology adapted will process the datasets in three stages. The experimentation is conducted on KDDCUP99 data sets based on number of features. The Bayesian three modes are analyzed for different sized data sets based upon total number of attacks. The time consumed by the classifier to build the model is analyzed and the accuracy is done.

Pilomyxoid astrocytoma (PMA) is a rare central nervous system tumor that has been included in the 2007 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System. Due to its more aggressive behavior, PMA is classified as Grade II neoplasm by the World Health Organization. PMA predominantly affects the hypothalamic/chiasmatic region and occurs in children (mean age of occurrence = 10 months). We report a case of a 24-year-old man who presented with headache, nausea, and vomiting. Brain CT and MRI revealed a mass occupying only the third ventricle. We performed partial resection. Histological findings, including monophasic growth with a myxoid background, and absence of Rosenthal fibers or eosinophilic granular bodies, as well as the strong positivity for glial fibrillary acidic protein were consistent with PMA.

AA well-known challenge with long running time queries in database environments is how much time a query will take to execute. This prediction is relevant for several reasons. For instance, by knowing that a query will take longer to execute than desired, one resource reservation mechanism can be performed, which means reserving more resources in order to execute this query in a shorter time in a future request. In this research work, it is presented a proposal in which the use of an advance reservation mechanism in a cloud database environment, considering machine learning techniques, provides resource recommendation. The proposed model is presented, in addition to some experiments that evaluate benefits and the efficiency of this enhanced proposal.

Cancer is a disease in which cells in body grow and divide beyond the control. Breast cancer is the second most common disease after lung cancer in women. Incredible advances in health sciences and biotechnology have prompted a huge amount of gene expression and clinical data. Machine learning techniques are improving the prior detection of breast cancer from this data. The research work carried out focuses on the application of machine learning methods, data analytic techniques, tools, and frameworks in the field of breast cancer research with respect to cancer survivability, cancer recurrence, cancer prediction and detection. Some of the widely used machine learning techniques used for detection of breast cancer are support vector machine and artificial neural network. Apache Spark data processing engine is found to be compatible with most of the machine learning frameworks.
