Instrument recognition in computer music is an important research area that deals with sound modelling. Musical sounds comprises of five prominent constituents which are Pitch, timber, loudness, duration, and spatialization. The tonal sound is function of all these components playing critical role in deciding quality. The first four parameters can be modified, but timbre remains a challenge [6]. Then, inevitably, timbre became the focus of this piece. It is a sound quality that distinguishes one musical instrument from another, regardless of pitch or volume, and it is critical. Monophonic and polyphonic recordings of musical instruments can be identified using this method. To evaluate the proposed approach, three Indian instruments were experimented to generate training data set. Flutes, harmoniums, and sitars are among the instruments used. Indian musical instruments classify sounds using statistical and spectral parameters. The hybrid features from different domains extracting important characteristics from musical sounds are extracted. An Indian Musical Instrument SVM and GMM classifier demonstrate their ability to classify accurately. Using monophonic sounds, SVM and Polyphonic produce an average accuracy of 89.88% and 91.10%, respectively. According to the results of the experiments, GMM outperforms SVM in monophonic recordings by a factor of 96.33 and polyphonic recordings by a factor of 93.33.

AbstractOvarian cancer (OV) is a common type of carcinoma in females. Many studies have reported that ferroptosis is associated with the prognosis of OV patients. However, the mechanism by which this occurs is not well understood. We utilized Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) to identify ferroptosis-related genes in OV. In the present study, we applied Cox regression analysis to select hub genes and used the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator to construct a prognosis prediction model with mRNA expression profiles and clinical data from TCGA. A series of analyses for this signature was performed in TCGA. We then verified the identified signature using International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) data. After a series of analyses, we identified six hub genes (DNAJB6, RB1, VIMP/ SELENOS, STEAP3, BACH1, and ALOX12) that were then used to construct a model using a training data set. The model was then tested using a validation data set and was found to have high sensitivity and specificity. The identified ferroptosis-related hub genes might play a critical role in the mechanism of OV development. The gene signature we identified may be useful for future clinical applications.

Person identification plays a critical role in a large range of applications. Recently, RF based person identification becomes a hot research topic due to the contact-free nature of RF sensing that is particularly appealing in current COVID-19 pandemic. However, existing systems still have multiple limitations: i) heavily rely on the gait patterns of users for identification; ii) require a large amount of data to train the model and also extensive retraining for new users and iii) require a large frequency bandwidth which is not available on most commodity RF devices for static person identification. This paper proposes RF-Identity, an RFID-based identification system to address the above limitations and the contribution is threefold. First, by integrating walking pattern features with unique body shape features (e.g., height), RF-Identity achieves a high accuracy in person identification. Second, RF-Identity develops a data augmentation scheme to expand the size of the training data set, thus reducing the human effort in data collection. Third, RF-Identity utilizes the tag diversity in spatial domain to identify static users without a need of large frequency bandwidth. Extensive experiments show an identification accuracy of 94.2% and 95.9% for 50 dynamic and static users, respectively.

The article deals with the musical space of the artistic heritage of J. Bunyan and H. Skovoroda that has many common features. The general place in the heritage of both writers is reference to solemn church or angelic singing, accompanying the scenes of triumph of the heroes. There are numerous quotations from the Bible psalms, that both writers mastered perfectly. Outplaying of the mythologemes “a man as a musical instrument” and “a world as a musical instrument” became common for both authors. Musical code is expressed in comparison with man’s features and musical sounds; assimilation of the world with a musical instrument, desire to hear “the music of spheres”. The comparison of a man’s emotional impulse with the sounds of musical instruments reveals willingness of the man of the Baroque age for the search of correspondence and for the synthesis of arts in a broad sense. Music as an art differs in the ability to reveal symbols by means of a sound, having a significant influence on the recipient. The analysis of musical component of H. Skovoroda and J. Bunyan’s work demonstrates its precise orientation on musicalisation of writers’ discourse. In the meantime musical theme is represented much wider in Skovoroda’s work than in the work of the English writer. The article introduces J. Bunyan and H. Skovoroda as bright representatives of national variants of baroque aesthetics.

Clustering is an important research area that has practical applications in many fields. Fuzzy clustering has shown advantages over crisp and probabilistic clustering, especially when there are significant overlaps between clusters. Most analytic fuzzy clustering approaches are derived from Bezdek's fuzzy c-means algorithm. One major factor that influences the determination of appropriate clusters in these approaches is an exponent parameter, called the fuzzifier. To our knowledge, no theoretical reason leading to an optimal setting of this parameter is available. This paper presents the development of an heuristic scheme for determining the fuzzifier. This scheme creates close interactions between the fuzzifier and the data set to be clustered. Experimental results in clustering IRIS data and in code book design required for image compression reveal a good performance of our proposal.

Workflow mining is an important research area of information systems designed for the specific organization as per their needs or challenges. The beginning stage of workflow mining purely based on the event log that extracted from a legacy information system. The learning got along these logs can build comprehension about the workflow of procedures and association of different processes. That can help with upgrading them if necessary. In this paper, we perform the extraction of the workflow model using workflow mining. This process is effective and efficient as compared with building workflow model from scratch. This paper displays a process performance-based framework where we compare the reference model with the extracted model based on key performance indices. This approach is not principally comprising of subjective investigation. Principle worry of subjective investigation is the legitimate rightness of procedures (nonattendance of oddities, similar to gridlocks and livelocks). The idea is conceptualized and validated by experimentation using a suitable data set. In this paper, the analysis that was finished amid the undertaking will be talked about, and the modules that have been executed will be depicted.

Automated fault detection and diagnosis (AFDD) tools based on machine-learning algorithms hold promise for lowering cost barriers for AFDD in small commercial buildings; however, access to high-quality training data for such algorithms is often difficult to obtain. To fill the gap in this research area, this study covers the development (Part I) and validation (Part II) of fault models that can be used with the building energy modeling software EnergyPlus® and OpenStudio® to generate a cost-effective training data set for developing AFDD algorithms. Part II (this paper) first presents a methodology of validating fault models with OpenStudio and then presents validation results, which are compared against measurements from a reference building. We discuss the results of our experiments with eight different faults in the reference building (a total of 39 different baseline and faulted scenarios), including our methodology for using fault models along with the reference building model to simulate the same faulted scenarios. Then, we present validation of the fault models by comparing results of simulations and experiments either quantitatively or qualitatively.

Mining information and knowledge from very large databases is recognized as a key research area in machine learning and expert systems. In the current research, we use connectionist and evolutionary models for learning software effort. Specifically, we use these models to learn the software effort from a set of training data set containing information on software projects and test the performance of the model on a holdout sample. The design issues of developing connectionist and evolutionary models for mining software effort patterns on a data set are described. Our research indicates that connectionist and evolutionary models, whenever carefully designed, hold a great promise for knowledge discovery and forecasting software effort.
