Animals recognition is one of the research areas in which few effective technologies have been proposed, especially in the predator animals' domain. Predator animals present a great danger to people who are camping or staying in outdoor areas and they are also a menace to livestock. In this paper, a multiple feature detection of predator animals is proposed. This method focuses on the face of the animal, explicitly the eyes and the ears. A database was created by collecting the features of ears and eyes from 10 animals and an experiment was conducted using machine learning techniques such as SVM and MLP to classify them as predators or pets. The evaluation results achieved the classification accuracies of 82% for MLP and 78% for SVM, which justify its effectiveness for the proposed method.

<p>Nowadays, social media (e.g., YouTube and Facebook) provides connection and interaction between people by posting comments or videos. In fact, comments are a part of contents in a website that can attract spammer to spreading phishing, malware or advertising. Due to existing malicious users that can spread malware or phishing in the comments, this work proposes a technique used for video sharing spam comments feature detection. The first phase of the methodology used in this work is dataset collection. For this experiment, a dataset from UCI Machine Learning repository is used. In the next phase, the development of framework and experimentation. The dataset will be pre-processed using tokenization and lemmatization process. After that, the features to detect spam is selected and the experiments for classification were performed by using six classifiers which are Random Tree, Random Forest, Naïve Bayes, KStar, Decision Table, and Decision Stump. The result shows the highest accuracy is 90.57% and the lowest was 58.86%.</p>

The present work aims to demonstrate how machine learning (ML) techniques can be used for automatic feature detection and extraction in fluvial environments. The use of photogrammetry and machine learning algorithms has improved the understanding of both environmental and anthropic issues. The developed methodology was applied considering the acquisition of multiple photogrammetric images thanks to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) carrying multispectral cameras. These surveys were carried out in the Salbertrand area, along the Dora Riparia River, situated in Piedmont (Italy). The authors developed an algorithm able to identify and detect the water table contour concerning the landed areas: the automatic classification in ML found a valid identification of different patterns (water, gravel bars, vegetation, and ground classes) in specific hydraulic and geomatics conditions. Indeed, the RE+NIR data gave us a sharp rise in terms of accuracy by about 11% and 13.5% of F1-score average values in the testing point clouds compared to RGB data. The obtained results about the automatic classification led us to define a new procedure with precise validity conditions.

The aim of this chapter is to analyze the recent advances in image processing and machine learning techniques with respect to facial expression recognition. A comprehensive review of recently proposed methods is provided along with an analysis of the advantages and the shortcomings of existing systems. Moreover, an example for the automatic identification of basic emotions is presented: Active Shape Models are used to identify prominent features of the face; Gabor filters are used to represent facial geometry at selected locations of fiducial points and Artificial Neural Networks are used for the classification into the basic emotions (anger, surprise, fear, happiness, sadness, disgust, neutral); and finally, the future trends towards automatic facial expression recognition are described.

Research in artificial intelligence ranges over many subdisciplines, such as Natural Language Processing, Computer Vision, Machine Learning, and MultiAgent Systems. Recently, AI techniques have become increasingly robust and complex, and there has been enhanced interest in research at the intersection of seemingly disparate research areas. Such work is motivated by the observation that there is actually a great deal of commonality among areas, that can be exploited within subfields. One example of a successful combination is the intersection of machine learning and multiagent systems. For example ,Kearns et al. [2001] proposed an efficient graphical model-based algorithm for calculating Nash equilibria. Going in the other direction, Datta et al. [2015] showed that solution concepts from cooperative game theory can be used to uniquely characterize the influence measure of classifiers.

Lane detection is a challenging problem. It has attracted the attention of the computer vision community for several decades. Essentially, lane detection is a multifeature detection problem that has become a real challenge for computer vision and machine learning techniques. Although many machine learning methods are used for lane detection, they are mainly used for classification rather than feature design. But modern machine learning methods can be used to identify the features that are rich in recognition and have achieved success in feature detection tests. However, these methods have not been fully implemented in the efficiency and accuracy of lane detection. In this paper, we propose a new method to solve it. We introduce a new method of preprocessing and ROI selection. The main goal is to use the HSV colour transformation to extract the white features and add preliminary edge feature detection in the preprocessing stage and then select ROI on the basis of the proposed preprocessing. This new preprocessing method is used to detect the lane. By using the standard KITTI road database to evaluate the proposed method, the results obtained are superior to the existing preprocessing and ROI selection techniques.

Computer Vision and image processing have gained an enormous advance in the field of machine learning techniques. Some of the major research areas within machine learning are Action detection and Pattern Recognition. Action recognition is a new advancement of pattern recognition approaches where the actions performed by any action or living being is tracked and monitored. Action recognition still encounters some challenges that needs to be looked upon and perform recognize the actions is a very minimal time. Networks like SVM and Neural Networks are used to train the network in such a way they are able to detect a pattern of an action when a new frame is given. In this paper, we have proposed a model which detects patterns of actions from a video or an image. Bounding boxes are used to detect the actions and localize it. Deep Belief Network is used to train the model where numerous images having actions are given as the training set. The performance evaluation was done on the model and it is observed that it detects the actions very accurately when a new image is given to the network.

Object and Face detection and recognition is one of the mostly researched area in computer vision. This particular field of work is widely used in mobile phones and laptops for unlocking the system by the user. Recently this field gained importance in the automatic attendance system in schools, colleges and institution. The institutions are moving from biometric based attendance to face recognition based attendance system. In this project work, I have used machine learning techniques to create a complete system of automatic attendance system which can be implemented very easily. There are majorly four steps involved in the system. Firstly, the datasets can be created instantly using webcam and in the second stage the created data set have to be trained and the trainer algorithm will create the trainer.yml document. As a next step, the face recognition algorithm have to be performed in order to recognize the faces of various students and teacher. In the final step, the attendance of the students will be updated in the CSV file or Excel. The proposed work is very much suited for the real time applications like automatic attendance system. HaarCascade is very eff

Abstract We summarize the first exploratory investigation into whether Machine Learning techniques can augment science strategic planning. We find that an approach based on Latent Dirichlet Allocation using abstracts drawn from high-impact astronomy journals may provide a leading indicator of future interest in a research topic. We show two topic metrics that correlate well with the high-priority research areas identified by the 2010 National Academies’ Astronomy and Astrophysics Decadal Survey. One metric is based on a sum of the fractional contribution to each topic by all scientific papers (“counts”) while the other is the Compound Annual Growth Rate of counts. These same metrics also show the same degree of correlation with the whitepapers submitted to the same Decadal Survey. Our results suggest that the Decadal Survey may under-emphasize fast growing research. A preliminary version of our work was presented by Thronson et al.
