Land is an essential factor in real estate developments, and each location has its unique characteristics. Land value is a vital cost of real estate developments. Higher land costs mean that project developers must create higher valued products to cover the higher land costs and to maintain a profit level from their developments. Land values vary according to surrounding factors, such as environment, social, and economic situations. Machine learning is a popular data estimation technique that enables a system to learn from sample data; however, there are few studies on its use for estimating land value distribution. Therefore, we aim to apply the technique of machine learning to estimate land value and to investigate the factors affecting the land value in the Talingchan district, Bangkok., we used land value level as the dependent variable, with other factors affecting land value levels as the independent variables. Ten points of interest were chosen from Google Places API. Then, three machine learning algorithms, namely CART, random forest, support vector machine, were applied. For this study, we selected 45,032 land parcels as the experimental data and randomly divided them into two groups. The first 70% of the land parcels was used to create the training area. The other 30% of the land parcels was used to create the testing area to verify the accuracy of the land value estimation from the applied machine learning techniques. The most accurate machine learning results were produced by random forest, which were then used to measure the factor importance. The academic group factor was school, and the commercial group factors were clothing store, pharmacy, convenience store, hawker stall, grocery store, automatic teller machine, supermarket, restaurant, and company.

Breast Cancer (BC) is amongst the most common and leading causes of deaths in women throughout the world. Recently, classification and data analysis tools are being widely used in the medical field for diagnosis, prognosis and decision making to help lower down the risks of people dying or suffering from diseases. Advanced machine learning methods have proven to give hope for patients as this has helped the doctors in early detection of diseases like Breast Cancer that can be fatal, in support with providing accurate outcomes. However, the results highly depend on the techniques used for feature selection and classification which will produce a strong machine learning model. In this paper, a performance comparison is conducted using four classifiers which are Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Random Forest on the Wisconsin Breast Cancer dataset to spot the most effective predictors. The main goal is to apply best machine learning classification methods to predict the Breast Cancer as benign or malignant using terms such as accuracy, f-measure, precision and recall. Experimental results show that Random forest is proven to achieve the highest accuracy of 99.26% on this dataset and features, while SVM and KNN show 97.78% and 97.04% accuracy respectively. MLP shows the least accuracy of 94.07%. All the experiments are conducted using RStudio as the data mining tool platform.

In today’s scenario, disease prediction plays an important role in medical field. Early detection of diseases is essential because of the fast food habits and life. In my previous study for predicting diseases using radiology test report , and to classify the disease as positive or negative three classifiers Naïve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Modified Extreme Learning Machine (MELM was used to increase the accuracy of results. To increase the efficiency of predicting the disease and to find which disease pricks the society, ensemble machine learning algorithm is used. The huge data from the healthcare industry were preprocessed., categorized and analyzed to find out and predict which patient to be treated and given priority and which hits the society the most. Ensemble machine learning's popularity in the medical industry is due to a variety of factors the Classifiers used are K Nearest Neighbors, Nearest Mean Classifier, Mean Feature Voting Classifier, KDtree KNN, Random Forest. To reduce the manual processes in medical field automating these processes has become important. Electronic medical records and significant advances in health care have given an opportunity to make find out which patients need to be given more importance. Several methodologies and techniques were used to preprocess the data in order to meet the study' requirements. To improve the performance of machine learning algorithms, feature selections were made using Tabu search. When ensemble prediction is combined with the Random Forest algorithm as the combiner, the results are more reliable. The aim of this study is to create a system to classify Medical records whether it is diseased or not and find out which disease rate has increased. This research will help the society to an individual to get treated easily and take preventive measures to avoid diseases.

Air, an essential natural resource, has been compromised in terms of quality by economic activities. Considerable research has been devoted to predicting instances of poor air quality, but most studies are limited by insufficient longitudinal data, making it difficult to account for seasonal and other factors. Several prediction models have been developed using an 11-year dataset collected by Taiwan’s Environmental Protection Administration (EPA). Machine learning methods, including adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), artificial neural network (ANN), random forest, stacking ensemble, and support vector machine (SVM), produce promising results for air quality index (AQI) level predictions. A series of experiments, using datasets for three different regions to obtain the best prediction performance from the stacking ensemble, AdaBoost, and random forest, found the stacking ensemble delivers consistently superior performance for R2 and RMSE, while AdaBoost provides best results for MAE.

Proposed Model

The Autonomous Nervous System (ANS) controls the nervous system and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) can be used as a diagnostic tool to diagnose heart defects. HRV can be classified into linear and nonlinear HRV indices which are used mostly to measure the efficiency of the model. For prediction of cardiac diseases, the selection and extraction features of machine learning model are effective. The available model used till date is based on HRV indices to predict the cardiac diseases accurately. The model could hardly throw light on specifics of indices, selection process and stability of the model. The proposed model is developed considering all facet electrocardiogram amplitude (ECG), frequency components, sampling frequency, extraction methods and acquisition techniques. The machine learning based model and its performance shall be tested using the standard BioSignal method, both on the data available and on the data obtained by the author. This is unique model developed by considering the vast number of mixtures sets and more than four complex cardiac classes. The statistical analysis is performed on a variety of databases such as MIT/BIH Normal Sinus Rhythm (NSR), MIT/BIH Arrhythmia (AR) and MIT/BIH Atrial Fibrillation (AF) and Peripheral Pule Analyser using feature compatibility techniques. The classifiers are trained for prediction with approximately 40000 sets of parameters. The proposed model reaches an average accuracy of 97.87 percent and is sensitive and précised. The best features are chosen from the different HRV features that will be used for classification. The present model was checked under all possible subject scenarios, such as the raw database and the non-ECG signal. In this sense, robustness is defined not only by the specificity parameter, but also by other measuring output parameters. Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-nearest Neighbour (KNN), Ensemble Adaboost (EAB) with Random Forest (RF) are tested in a 5% higher precision band and a lower band configuration. The Random Forest has produced better results, and its robustness has been established.

Mammalian behavior is typically monitored by observation. However, direct observation requires a substantial amount of effort and time, if the number of mammals to be observed is sufficiently large or if the observation is conducted for a prolonged period. In this study, machine learning methods as hidden Markov models (HMMs), random forests, support vector machines (SVMs), and neural networks, were applied to detect and estimate whether a goat is in estrus based on the goat’s behavior; thus, the adequacy of the method was verified. Goat’s tracking data was obtained using a video tracking system and used to estimate whether they, which are in “estrus” or “non-estrus”, were in either states: “approaching the male”, or “standing near the male”. Totally, the PC of random forest seems to be the highest. However, The percentage concordance (PC) value besides the goats whose data were used for training data sets is relatively low. It is suggested that random forest tend to over-fit to training data. Besides random forest, the PC of HMMs and SVMs is high. However, considering the calculation time and HMM’s advantage in that it is a time series model, HMM is better method. The PC of neural network is totally low, however, if the more goat’s data were acquired, neural network would be an adequate method for estimation.

Points Of Interest

Cellular phone data has been proven to be valuable in the analysis of residents’ travel patterns. Existing studies mostly identify the trip ends through rule-based or clustering algorithms. These methods largely depend on subjective experience and users’ communication behaviors. Moreover, limited by privacy policy, the accuracy of these methods is difficult to assess. In this paper, points of interest data is applied to supplement cellular phone data’s missing information generated by users’ behaviors. Specifically, a random forest model for trip end identification is proposed using multi-dimensional attributes. A field data acquisition test is designed and conducted with communication operators to implement synchronized cellular phone data and real trip information collection. The proposed identification approach is empirically evaluated with real trip information. Results show that the overall trip end detection precision and recall reach 95.2% and 88.7% with an average distance error of 269 m, and the time errors of the trip ends are less than 10 min. Compared with the rule-based approach, clustering algorithm, naive Bayes method, and support vector machine, the proposed method has better performance in accuracy and consistency.

The increased usage of the Internet and social networks allowed and enabled people to express their views, which have generated an increasing attention lately. Sentiment Analysis (SA) techniques are used to determine the polarity of information, either positive or negative, toward a given topic, including opinions. In this research, we have introduced a machine learning approach based on Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naïve Bayes (NB) and Random Forest (RF) classifiers, to find and classify extreme opinions in Arabic reviews. To achieve this, a dataset of 1500 Arabic reviews was collected from Google Play Store. In addition, a two-stage Classification process was applied to classify the reviews. In the first stage, we built a binary classifier to sort out positive from negative reviews. In the second stage, however we applied a binary classification mechanism based on a set of proposed rules that distinguishes extreme positive from positive reviews, and extreme negative from negative reviews. Four major experiments were conducted with a total of 10 different sub experiments to fulfill the two-stage process using different X-validation schemas and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency feature selection method. Obtained results have indicated that SVM was the best during the first stage classification with 30% testing data, and NB was the best with 20% testing data. The results of the second stage classification indicated that SVM has scored better results in identifying extreme positive reviews when dealing with the positive dataset with an overall accuracy of 68.7% and NB showed better accuracy results in identifying extreme negative reviews when dealing with the negative dataset, with an overall accuracy of 72.8%.

Abstract The Tuscaloosa Marine Shale (TMS) formation is a clay- and liquid-rich emerging shale play across central Louisiana and southwest Mississippi with recoverable resources of 1.5 billion barrels of oil and 4.6 trillion cubic feet of gas. The formation poses numerous challenges due to its high average clay content (50 wt%) and rapidly changing mineralogy, making the selection of fracturing candidates a difficult task. While brittleness plays an important role in screening potential intervals for hydraulic fracturing, typical brittleness estimation methods require the use of geomechanical and mineralogical properties from costly laboratory tests. Machine Learning (ML) can be employed to generate synthetic brittleness logs and therefore, may serve as an inexpensive and fast alternative to the current techniques. In this paper, we propose the use of machine learning to predict the brittleness index of Tuscaloosa Marine Shale from conventional well logs. We trained ML models on a dataset containing conventional and brittleness index logs from 8 wells. The latter were estimated either from geomechanical logs or log-derived mineralogy. Moreover, to ensure mechanical data reliability, dynamic-to-static conversion ratios were applied to Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio. The predictor features included neutron porosity, density and compressional slowness logs to account for the petrophysical and mineralogical character of TMS. The brittleness index was predicted using algorithms such as Linear, Ridge and Lasso Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Random Forest, AdaBoost and Gradient Boosting. Models were shortlisted based on the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) value and fine-tuned using the Grid Search method with a specific set of hyperparameters for each model. Overall, Gradient Boosting and Random Forest outperformed other algorithms and showed an average error reduction of 5 %, a normalized RMSE of 0.06 and a R-squared value of 0.89. The Gradient Boosting was chosen to evaluate the test set and successfully predicted the brittleness index with a normalized RMSE of 0.07 and R-squared value of 0.83. This paper presents the practical use of machine learning to evaluate brittleness in a cost and time effective manner and can further provide valuable insights into the optimization of completion in TMS. The proposed ML model can be used as a tool for initial screening of fracturing candidates and selection of fracturing intervals in other clay-rich and heterogeneous shale formations.

Surgery cancellations waste scarce operative resources and hinder patients’ access to operative services. In this study, the Wilcoxon and chi-square tests were used for predictor selection, and three machine learning models – random forest, support vector machine, and XGBoost – were used for the identification of surgeries with high risks of cancellation. The optimal performances of the identification models were as follows: sensitivity − 0.615; specificity − 0.957; positive predictive value − 0.454; negative predictive value − 0.904; accuracy − 0.647; and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve − 0.682. Of the three models, the random forest model achieved the best performance. Thus, the effective identification of surgeries with high risks of cancellation is feasible with stable performance. Models and sampling methods significantly affect the performance of identification. This study is a new application of machine learning for the identification of surgeries with high risks of cancellation and facilitation of surgery resource management.
