The compressive strength of concrete plays an important role in determining the durability and performance of concrete. Due to rapid growth in material engineering finalizing an appropriate proportion for the mix of concrete to obtain the desired compressive strength of concrete has become cumbersome and a laborious task further the problem becomes more complex to obtain a rational relation between the concrete materials used to the strength obtained. The development in computational methods can be used to obtain a rational relation between the materials used and the compressive strength using machine learning techniques which reduces the influence of outliers and all unwanted variables influence in the determination of compressive strength. In this paper basic machine learning technics Multilayer perceptron neural network (MLP), Support Vector Machines (SVM), linear regressions (LR) and Classification and Regression Tree (CART), have been used to develop a model for determining the compressive strength for two different set of data (ingredients). Among all technics used the SVM provides a better results in comparison to other, but comprehensively the SVM cannot be a universal model because many recent literatures have proved that such models need more data and also the dynamicity of the attributes involved play an important role in determining the efficacy of the model.

Objectives: Orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) can be utilized without any drinking water; this feature makes ODTs easy to use and suitable for specific groups of patients. Oral administration of drugs is the most commonly used route, and tablets constitute the most preferable pharmaceutical dosage form. However, the preparation of ODTs is costly and requires long trials, which creates obstacles for dosage trials. The aim of this study was to identify the most appropriate formulation using machine learning (ML) models of ODT dexketoprofen formulations, with the goal of providing a cost-effective and timereducing solution.Methods: This research utilized nonlinear regression models, including the k-nearest neighborhood (k-NN), support vector regression (SVR), classification and regression tree (CART), bootstrap aggregating (bagging), random forest (RF), gradient boosting machine (GBM), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) methods, as well as the t-test, to predict the quantity of various components in the dexketoprofen formulation within fixed criteria.Results: All the models were developed with Python libraries. The performance of the ML models was evaluated with R2 values and the root mean square error. Hardness values of 0.99 and 2.88, friability values of 0.92 and 0.02, and disintegration time values of 0.97 and 10.09 using the GBM algorithm gave the best results.Conclusions: In this study, we developed a computational approach to estimate the optimal pharmaceutical formulation of dexketoprofen. The results were evaluated by an expert, and it was found that they complied with Food and Drug Administration criteria.

Working Status

This study will examine the application of several classification methods to machine learning models by taking into account the case of imbalanced data. The research was conducted on a case study of classification modeling for working status in Banten Province in 2020. The data used comes from the National Labor Force Survey, Statistics Indonesia. The machine learning methods used are Classification and Regression Tree (CART), Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, Rotation Forest, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Neural Network Analysis, One Rule (OneR), and Boosting. Classification modeling using resample techniques in cases of imbalanced data and large data sets is proven to improve classification accuracy, especially for minority classes, which can be seen from the sensitivity and specificity values that are more balanced than the original data (without treatment). Furthermore, the eight classification models tested shows that the Boost model provides the best performance based on the highest sensitivity, specificity, G-mean, and kappa coefficient values. The most important/most influential variables in the classification of working status are marital status, education, and age.

Customer behavior prediction is gaining more importance in the banking sector like in any other sector recently. This study aims to propose a model to predict whether credit card users will pay their debts or not. Using the proposed model, potential unpaid risks can be predicted and necessary actions can be taken in time. For the prediction of customers’ payment status of next months, we use Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Classification and Regression Tree (CART) and C4.5, which are widely used artificial intelligence and decision tree algorithms. Our dataset includes 10713 customer’s records obtained from a well-known bank in Taiwan. These records consist of customer information such as the amount of credit, gender, education level, marital status, age, past payment records, invoice amount and amount of credit card payments. We apply cross validation and hold-out methods to divide our dataset into two parts as training and test sets. Then we evaluate the algorithms with the proposed performance metrics. We also optimize the parameters of the algorithms to improve the performance of prediction. The results show that the model built with the CART algorithm, one of the decision tree algorithm, provides high accuracy (about 86%) to predict the customers’ payment status for next month. When the algorithm parameters are optimized, classification accuracy and performance are increased.

Recently, there has been a tendency to use machine learning (ML)–based methods, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), for more accurate estimates. This paper investigates the effectiveness of three different machine learning methods including radial basis function neural network (RBNN), multi-layer perceptron (MLP), and support vector regression (SVR), for predicting the ultimate strength of square and rectangular columns confined by various FRP sheets. So far, in the previous study, several experiments have been conducted on concrete columns confined by fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets with the results suggesting that the use of FRP sheets enhances the compressive strength of concrete columns effectively. Also, a wide range of experimental data (including 463 specimens) has been collected in this study for square and rectangular columns, confined by various FRP sheets. The comparison of ML-derived results with the experimental findings, which were in a very good agreement, demonstrated the ability of ML to estimate the compressive strength of concrete confined by FRP; the correlation coefficient (R2) for MLP, RBFNN, and SVR methods was equal to 0.97, 0.97, and 0.90, respectively. Similar accuracy was obtained by MLP and RBFNN, and they provided better estimates for determining the compressive strength of concrete confined by FRP. Also, the results showed that the difference between statistical indicators for training and testing specimens in the RBFNN method was greater than the MLP method, and this difference indicated the poor performance of RBFNN.

At present, due to the unavailability of natural resources, society should take the maximum advantage of data, information, and knowledge to achieve sustainability goals. In today’s world condition, the existence of humans is not possible without the essential proliferation of plants. In the photosynthesis procedure, plants use solar energy to convert into chemical energy. This process is responsible for all life on earth, and the main controlling factor for proper plant growth is soil since it holds water, air, and all essential nutrients of plant nourishment. Though, due to overexposure, soil gets despoiled, so fertilizer is an essential component to hold the soil quality. In that regard, soil analysis is a suitable method to determine soil quality. Soil analysis examines the soil in laboratories and generates reports of unorganized and insignificant data. In this study, different big data analysis machine learning methods are used to extracting knowledge from data to find out fertilizer recommendation classes on behalf of present soil nutrition composition. For this experiment, soil analysis reports are collected from the Tata soil and water testing center. In this paper, Mahoot library is used for analysis of stochastic gradient descent (SGD), artificial neural network (ANN) performance on Hadoop environment. For better performance evaluation, we also used single machine experiments for random forest (RF), K-nearest neighbors K-NN, regression tree (RT), support vector machine (SVM) using polynomial function, SVM using radial basis function (RBF) methods. Detailed experimental analysis was carried out using overall accuracy, AUC–ROC (receiver operating characteristics (ROC), and area under the ROC curve (AUC)) curve, mean absolute prediction error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE), and coefficient of determination (R2) validation measurements on soil reports dataset. The results provide a comparison of solution classes and conclude that the SGD outperforms other approaches. Finally, the proposed results support to select the solution or recommend a class which suggests suitable fertilizer to crops for maximum production.

Malaria is a life-threatening disease that leads to death globally, its early prediction is necessary for preventing the rapid transmission. In this work, an enhanced ensemble learning approach for predicting malaria outbreaks is suggested. Using a mean-based splitting strategy, the dataset is randomly partitioned into smaller groups. The splits are then modelled using a classification and regression tree, and an accuracy-based weighted aging classifier ensemble is used to construct a homogenous ensemble from the several Classification and Regression Tree models. This approach ensures higher performance is achieved. Seven different Algorithms were tested and one ensemble method is used which combines all the seven classifiers together and finally, the accuracy, precision, and sensitivity achieved for the proposed method is 93%, 92%, and 100% respectively, which outperformed better than machine learning classifiers and ensemble method used in this research. The correlation between the variables used is established and how each factor contributes to the malaria incidence. The result indicates that malaria outbreaks can be predicted successfully using the suggested technique.

Dust Retention

Hyperspectral sensors provide detailed information for dust retention content (DRC) estimation. However, rich hyperspectral data are not fully utilized by traditional image analysis techniques. We integrated several recently developed machine learning algorithms to estimate DRC on plant leaves using the spectra measured by the ASD FieldSpec 3. The experiments were carried out on three common green plants of southern China. The important hyperspectral variables were first identified by applying the random forest (RF) algorithm. Three estimation models were then developed using the support vector machine (SVM), classification and regression tree (CART), and RF algorithms. The results showed that the increase in dust retention contents on plant leaves enhanced their reflectance in the visible wavelength but weakened their reflectance in the infrared wavelength. Wavelengths in the ranges of 450–500 nm, 550–600 nm, 750–1000 nm, and 1100–1300 nm were identified as important variables using the RF algorithm and were used to estimate the DRC. The comparison of the three machine learning techniques for DRC estimation confirmed that the SVM and RF models performed well because their estimations were similar to the measured DRC. Specifically, the average R2 for SVM and RF model are 0.85 and 0.88. The technical approach of this study proved to be a successful illustration of using hyperspectral measurements to estimate the DRC on plant leaves. The findings of this study can be applied to monitor the DRC on leaves of other plants and can also be integrated with other types of spectral data to measure the DRC at a regional scale.

The static elastic modulus (Ec) and compressive strength (fc) are critical properties of concrete. When determining Ec and fc, concrete cores are collected and subjected to destructive tests. However, destructive tests require certain test permissions and large sample sizes. Hence, it is preferable to predict Ec using the dynamic elastic modulus (Ed), through nondestructive evaluations. A resonance frequency test performed according to ASTM C215-14 and a pressure wave (P-wave) measurement conducted according to ASTM C597M-16 are typically used to determine Ed. Recently, developments in transducers have enabled the measurement of a shear wave (S-wave) velocities in concrete. Although various equations have been proposed for estimating Ec and fc from Ed, their results deviate from experimental values. Thus, it is necessary to obtain a reliable Ed value for accurately predicting Ec and fc. In this study, Ed values were experimentally obtained from P-wave and S-wave velocities in the longitudinal and transverse modes; Ec and fc values were predicted using these Ed values through four machine learning (ML) methods: support vector machine, artificial neural networks, ensembles, and linear regression. Using ML, the prediction accuracy of Ec and fc was improved by 2.5–5% and 7–9%, respectively, compared with the accuracy obtained using classical or normal-regression equations. By combining ML methods, the accuracy of the predicted Ec and fc was improved by 0.5% and 1.5%, respectively, compared with the optimal single variable results.
