With the trend of increasing sensors implementation in production systems and comprehensive networking, essential preconditions are becoming required to be established for the successful application of data-driven methods of equipment monitoring, process optimization, and other relevant automation tasks. As a protocol, these tasks should be performed by engineers. Engineers usually do not have enough experience with data mining or machine learning techniques and are often skeptical about the world of artificial intelligence (AI). Quality assurance of AI results and transparency throughout the IT chain are essential for the acceptance and low-risk dissemination of AI applications in production and automation technology. This article presents a conceptual method of the stepwise and level-wise control and improvement of data quality as one of the most important sources of AI failures. The appropriate process model (V-model for quality assurance) forms the basis for this.

Machine learning is an established and frequently used technique in industry and academia, but a standard process model to improve success and efficiency of machine learning applications is still missing. Project organizations and machine learning practitioners face manifold challenges and risks when developing machine learning applications and have a need for guidance to meet business expectations. This paper therefore proposes a process model for the development of machine learning applications, covering six phases from defining the scope to maintaining the deployed machine learning application. Business and data understanding are executed simultaneously in the first phase, as both have considerable impact on the feasibility of the project. The next phases are comprised of data preparation, modeling, evaluation, and deployment. Special focus is applied to the last phase, as a model running in changing real-time environments requires close monitoring and maintenance to reduce the risk of performance degradation over time. With each task of the process, this work proposes quality assurance methodology that is suitable to address challenges in machine learning development that are identified in the form of risks. The methodology is drawn from practical experience and scientific literature, and has proven to be general and stable. The process model expands on CRISP-DM, a data mining process model that enjoys strong industry support, but fails to address machine learning specific tasks. The presented work proposes an industry- and application-neutral process model tailored for machine learning applications with a focus on technical tasks for quality assurance.

This work aims to show how to manage heterogeneous information and data coming from real datasets that collect physical, biological, and sensory values. As productive companies—public or private, large or small—need increasing profitability with costs reduction, discovering appropriate ways to exploit data that are continuously recorded and made available can be the right choice to achieve these goals. The agricultural field is only apparently refractory to the digital technology and the “smart farm” model is increasingly widespread by exploiting the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm applied to environmental and historical information through time-series. The focus of this study is the design and deployment of practical tasks, ranging from crop harvest forecasting to missing or wrong sensors data reconstruction, exploiting and comparing various machine learning techniques to suggest toward which direction to employ efforts and investments. The results show how there are ample margins for innovation while supporting requests and needs coming from companies that wish to employ a sustainable and optimized agriculture industrial business, investing not only in technology, but also in the knowledge and in skilled workforce required to take the best out of it.

In the developing world, cancer death is one of the major problems for humankind. Even though there are many ways to prevent it before happening, some cancer types still do not have any treatment. One of the most common cancer types is breast cancer, and early diagnosis is the most important thing in its treatment. Accurate diagnosis is one of the most important processes in breast cancer treatment. In the literature, there are many studies about predicting the type of breast tumors. In this research paper, data about breast cancer tumors from Dr. William H. Walberg of the University of Wisconsin Hospital were used for making predictions on breast tumor types. Data visualization and machine learning techniques including logistic regression, k-nearest neighbors, support vector machine, naïve Bayes, decision tree, random forest, and rotation forest were applied to this dataset. R, Minitab, and Python were chosen to be applied to these machine learning techniques and visualization. The paper aimed to make a comparative analysis using data visualization and machine learning applications for breast cancer detection and diagnosis. Diagnostic performances of applications were comparable for detecting breast cancers. Data visualization and machine learning techniques can provide significant benefits and impact cancer detection in the decision-making process. In this paper, different machine learning and data mining techniques for the detection of breast cancer were proposed. Results obtained with the logistic regression model with all features included showed the highest classification accuracy (98.1%), and the proposed approach revealed the enhancement in accuracy performances. These results indicated the potential to open new opportunities in the detection of breast cancer.

<p>Machine learning applications in geophysical studies are often used to predict geophysical observations in areas with sparse or not data or recognize patterns and similarities in data. In our study, we test different techniques to improve the information of constraining data by machine learning and to improve strengthen the modelling of lithospheric structures with potential field data. Constraining data like seismic information, surface geology, rock classifications etc. is often used during the interpretation step of lithospheric modelling to aid the qualitative interpretation. Consensus between additional data and the own model is assessed by comparison and used to describe the model goodness consistency. First Wwe test, how this additional data can be used before the modelling by using machine learning techniques to quantify the data. We focus on supervised learning to predict crustal structure in areas with little constraints, on trained learning in data-rich areas. Second, we test the spatial analysis of surface data to determine lithospheric boundaries in depth. These tests are performed in North America and the Central Asian Orogenic belt (CAOB) to compare the results in areas with respectively good and spare data coverage. That approach can be used to link the large variety of surface and deep information in the CAOB region.</p><p>The combination of the different geophysical data available with the geological data should improve our tectonic modelling.</p>

Every cloud provider, wishes to provide 99.9999% availabil- ity for the systems provisioned and operated by them for the customer i.e. may it be SaaS or PaaS or IaaS model, the availability of the system must be greater than 99.9999%.It becomes vital for the provider to mon- itor the systems and take proactive measures to reduce the downtime.In an ideal scenario, the support colleagues (24*7 technical support) must be aware of the on-going issues in the production systems before it is raised as an incident by the customer. But currently, there is no effective alert monitoring solutions for the same. The proposed solution presented in this paper is to have a central alert monitoring tool for all cloud so- lutions offered by the cloud provider. The central alert monitoring tool constantly observes the time series database which contains metric val- ues populated by HA and compares the incoming metric values with the defined thresholds. When a metric value exceeds the defined threshold, using machine learning techniques the monitoring tool decides & takes actions.

Pathway and cell-type signatures are patterns present in transcriptome data that are associated with biological processes or phenotypic consequences. These signatures result from specific cell-type and pathway expression, but can require large transcriptomic compendia to detect. Machine learning techniques can be powerful tools in a practitioner’s toolkit for signature discovery through their ability to provide accurate and interpretable results. In the following review, we discuss various machine learning applications to extract pathway and cell-type signatures from transcriptomic compendia. We focus on the biological motivations and interpretation for both supervised and unsupervised learning approaches in this setting. We consider recent advances, including deep learning, and their applications to expanding bulk and single cell RNA data. As data and compute resources increase, opportunities for machine learning to aid in revealing biological signatures will continue to grow.
