Laguna de Bay, the largest freshwater lake in the Philippines, provides livelihood to the fishermen and serves as a source of potable water to the locals. However, freshwater quality has degraded, whereas one of the main contributors are Cyanobacteria that produce cyanotoxins. Existing studies that uses a similar device are either too expensive or too bulky. The purpose of this study is to estimate the cyanobacteria concentration by using a low-cost 16-channel spectrophotometric device to determine the level of severity efficiently. Using Linear Regression, the dataset is modelled by the algorithm to estimate the number of cyanobacteria present on the water sample, while Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm for severity level classifier. This study achieved high accuracy in estimating the cyanobacteria using linear regression and classifying the level of severity by support vector machine.

Abstract. Natural disasters incur many fatalities and economic losses for vulnerable and developing countries such as the Philippines. It is crucial that during calamities, on-ground surveillance is supplemented by low-cost and time-efficient methods such as satellite remote sensing. Diwata-2 is a Philippine microsatellite specifically equipped for disaster assessment. In this study, the capabilities of this satellite in ashfall detection were explored by closely examining the case of the Taal volcano eruption on January 12, 2020. Satellite images covering parts of CALABARZON and Metropolitan Manila before and after the phreatomagmatic eruption were compared. The presence and extent of heavy ash over the study area were identified after the image classification using the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. A decrease in vegetation cover and built-up areas was also observed. Upon validation, an overall accuracy of 91.4562 and Kappa coefficient of 0.8833 were achieved for the post-eruption ashfall extent map, exhibiting the potential of Diwata-2 imagery in monitoring volcanic eruptions and similar phenomena.

Classification is data mining techniques which used for the purposes of diagnosis in the medical field as measured by the high accuracy produced. The accuracy of classification algorithm is influenced by the use of features and dimensions in dataset. In this study, Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) dataset was used where the data is one of the high dimension datasets. Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm is used because its ability to handle high-dimensional data. In the dataset, it consists of 24 attributes and 1 class which if all are used results accuracy of classification will be diminished. Method for selecting features with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is applied to reduce redundant features and produce optimal features. In addition, ensemble AdaBoost also applied in this research to increase performance of entirety classification algorithm. The results showed that the optimization of SVM algorithm by using PSO as a selection and ensemble feature of AdaBoost with an average of selected features of 18 features could increase the accuracy of 36.20% to 99.50% in the diagnosis of CKD compared to the SVM algorithm without optimization only resulting in accuracy 63.30%. This research can be used as a reference for further research in focusing on the preprocessing stage.

In this paper a cost-effective sensor has been implemented to read finger bend signals, by attaching the sensor to a finger, so as to classify them based on the degree of bent as well as the joint about which the finger was being bent. This was done by testing with various machine learning algorithms to get the most accurate and consistent classifier. Finally, we found that Support Vector Machine was the best algorithm suited to classify our data, using we were able predict live state of a finger, i.e., the degree of bent and the joints involved. The live voltage values from the sensor were transmitted using a NodeMCU micro-controller which were converted to digital and uploaded on a database for analysis.

Pulmonary nodule recognition is the core module of lung CAD. The Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm has been widely used in pulmonary nodule recognition, and the algorithm of Multiple Kernel Learning Support Vector Machine (MKL-SVM) has achieved good results therein. Based on grid search, however, the MKL-SVM algorithm needs long optimization time in course of parameter optimization; also its identification accuracy depends on the fineness of grid. In the paper, swarm intelligence is introduced and the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is combined with MKL-SVM algorithm to be MKL-SVM-PSO algorithm so as to realize global optimization of parameters rapidly. In order to obtain the global optimal solution, different inertia weights such as constant inertia weight, linear inertia weight, and nonlinear inertia weight are applied to pulmonary nodules recognition. The experimental results show that the model training time of the proposed MKL-SVM-PSO algorithm is only 1/7 of the training time of the MKL-SVM grid search algorithm, achieving better recognition effect. Moreover, Euclidean norm of normalized error vector is proposed to measure the proximity between the average fitness curve and the optimal fitness curve after convergence. Through statistical analysis of the average of 20 times operation results with different inertial weights, it can be seen that the dynamic inertial weight is superior to the constant inertia weight in the MKL-SVM-PSO algorithm. In the dynamic inertial weight algorithm, the parameter optimization time of nonlinear inertia weight is shorter; the average fitness value after convergence is much closer to the optimal fitness value, which is better than the linear inertial weight. Besides, a better nonlinear inertial weight is verified.

Abstract. Low cost sensors for measuring atmospheric pollutants are experiencing an increase in popularity worldwide among practitioners, academia and environmental agencies, and a large amount of data by these devices are being delivered to the public. Notwithstanding their behaviour, performance and reliability are not yet fully investigated and understood. In the present study we investigate the medium term performance of a set of NO and NO2 electrochemical sensors in Switzerland using three different regression algorithms within a field calibration approach. In order to mimic a realistic application of these devices, the sensors were initially co-located at a rural regulatory monitoring site for a 4-month calibration period, and subsequently deployed for 4 months at two distant regulatory urban sites in traffic and urban background conditions, where the performance of the calibration algorithms was explored. The applied algorithms were Multivariate Linear Regression, Support Vector Regression and Random Forest; these were tested, along with the sensors, in terms of generalisability, selectivity, drift, uncertainty, bias, noise and suitability for spatial mapping intra-urban pollution gradients with hourly resolution. Results from the deployment at the urban sites show a better performance of the non-linear algorithms (Support Vector Regression and Random Forest) achieving RMSE  <  5 ppb, R2 between 0.74 and 0.95 and MAE between 2 and 4 ppb. The combined use of both NO and NO2 sensor output in the estimate of each pollutant showed some contribution by NO sensor to NO2 estimate and vice-versa. All algorithms exhibited a drift ranging between 5 and 10 ppb for Random Forest and 15 ppb for Multivariate Linear Regression at the end of the deployment. The lowest concentration correctly estimated, with a 25 % relative expanded uncertainty, resulted in ca. 15–20 ppb and was provided by the non-linear algorithms. As an assessment for the suitability of the tested sensors for a targeted application, the probability of resolving hourly concentration difference in cities was investigated. It was found that NO concentration differences of 5–10 ppb (8–10 for NO2) can reliably be detected (90 % confidence), depending on the air pollution level. The findings of this study, although derived from a specific sensor type and sensor model, are based on a flexible methodology and have extensive potential for exploring the performance of other low cost sensors, that are different in their target pollutant and sensing technology.
