ABSTRACT Introduction Early prediction of the acute hypotensive episode (AHE) in critically ill patients has the potential to improve outcomes. In this study, we apply different machine learning algorithms to the MIMIC III Physionet dataset, containing more than 60,000 real-world intensive care unit records, to test commonly used machine learning technologies and compare their performances. Materials and Methods Five classification methods including K-nearest neighbor, logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, and a deep learning method called long short-term memory are applied to predict an AHE 30 minutes in advance. An analysis comparing model performance when including versus excluding invasive features was conducted. To further study the pattern of the underlying mean arterial pressure (MAP), we apply a regression method to predict the continuous MAP values using linear regression over the next 60 minutes. Results Support vector machine yields the best performance in terms of recall (84%). Including the invasive features in the classification improves the performance significantly with both recall and precision increasing by more than 20 percentage points. We were able to predict the MAP with a root mean square error (a frequently used measure of the differences between the predicted values and the observed values) of 10 mmHg 60 minutes in the future. After converting continuous MAP predictions into AHE binary predictions, we achieve a 91% recall and 68% precision. In addition to predicting AHE, the MAP predictions provide clinically useful information regarding the timing and severity of the AHE occurrence. Conclusion We were able to predict AHE with precision and recall above 80% 30 minutes in advance with the large real-world dataset. The prediction of regression model can provide a more fine-grained, interpretable signal to practitioners. Model performance is improved by the inclusion of invasive features in predicting AHE, when compared to predicting the AHE based on only the available, restricted set of noninvasive technologies. This demonstrates the importance of exploring more noninvasive technologies for AHE prediction.

BACKGROUND Alopecia areata is an auto-immune disorder that involves non-scarring hair loss in well-defined patches as well as affecting the entire scalp region and ultimately leads to baldness. The latest worldwide statistics have exhibited that Alopecia areata affects millions of people. Furthermore, the use of conventional methods often leads to poor diagnosis of Alopecia ultimately increasing the medical financial burden on the population. It has been reported that 85% of the individuals suffering from Alopecia areata complain about significant financial burden along with associated costs that are beyond cosmetic concerns. Many individuals adhere to treatment discontinuation owing to enhanced expenses and poor diagnosis. OBJECTIVE The objectives of the study comprise of utilizing datasets of healthy hairs and Alopecia areata, extracting color, texture and shape features from the images and applying machine learning algorithms including support vector machine (SVM) and k-nearest neighbor (KNN). METHODS Two datasets with images of healthy hairs and Alopecia areata have been utilized. A total of 200 healthy hair images were retrieved from Figaro1k dataset. A total of 68 images of Alopecia areata were retrieved from a dataset known as Dermnet. The images initially go through pre-processing steps including enhancement and segmentation. Following image segmentation, three features of color, texture and shape are extracted. Following feature extraction, machine learning algorithms including support vector machine (SVM) and k-nearest neighbor (KNN) are applied that aid in classifying Alopecia areata and healthy hairs. RESULTS A total of 81 images are tested with support vector machine (SVM) and k- nearest neighbor (KNN) yielding an accuracy of 91.4% and 88.9% respectively. The results of the paired sample T-test via SPSS analysis demonstrate a p < 0.001 and exhibits that the accuracies acquired from the two machine learning techniques are significantly different. The accuracies reported will enable a hair expert in recommending a suitable diagnosis and hair treatment regimen to a patient. CONCLUSIONS The application of support vector machine (SVM) presented an accuracy of 91.4% and that of k-nearest neighbor (KNN) presented an accuracy of 88.9%. These accuracies exhibit that the proposed classification framework is found to be successful and robust. However, future work with deep learning techniques such as convolutional neural networks (CNN) can be also be carried out and integrated with the existing system.

Heart Disease has become one of the most leading cause of the death on the planet and it has become most life-threatening disease. The early prediction of the heart disease will help in reducing death rate. Predicting Heart Disease has become one of the most difficult challenges in the medical sector in recent years. As per recent statistics, about one person dies from heart disease every minute. In the realm of healthcare, a massive amount of data was discovered for which the data-science is critical for analyzing this massive amount of data. This paper proposes heart disease prediction using different machine-learning algorithms like logistic regression, naïve bayes, support vector machine, k nearest neighbor (KNN), random forest, extreme gradient boost, etc. These machine learning algorithm techniques we used to predict likelihood of person getting heart disease on the basis of features (such as cholesterol, blood pressure, age, sex, etc. which were extracted from the datasets. In our research we used two separate datasets. The first heart disease dataset we used was collected from very famous UCI machine learning repository which has 303 record instances with 14 different attributes (13 features and one target) and the second dataset that we used was collected from Kaggle website which contained 1190 patient’s record instances with 11 features and one target. This dataset is a combination of 5 popular datasets for heart disease. This study compares the accuracy of various machine learning techniques. In our research, for the first dataset we got the highest accuracy of 92% by Support Vector Machine (SVM). And for the second dataset, Random Forest gave us the highest accuracy of 94.12%. Then, we combined both the datasets which we used in our research for which we got the highest accuracy of 93.31% using Random Forest.

Ground-level ozone is a pollutant that is harmful to urban populations, particularly in developing countries where it is present in significant quantities. It greatly increases the risk of heart and lung diseases and harms agricultural crops. This study hypothesized that, as a secondary pollutant, ground-level ozone is amenable to 24 h forecasting based on measurements of weather conditions and primary pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds. We developed software to analyze hourly records of 12 air pollutants and 5 weather variables over the course of one year in Delhi, India. To determine the best predictive model, eight machine learning algorithms were tuned, trained, tested, and compared using cross-validation with hourly data for a full year. The algorithms, ranked by R2 values, were XGBoost (0.61), Random Forest (0.61), K-Nearest Neighbor Regression (0.55), Support Vector Regression (0.48), Decision Trees (0.43), AdaBoost (0.39), and linear regression (0.39). When trained by separate seasons across five years, the predictive capabilities of all models increased, with a maximum R2 of 0.75 during winter. Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory was the least accurate model for annual training, but had some of the best predictions for seasonal training. Out of five air quality index categories, the XGBoost model was able to predict the correct category 24 h in advance 90% of the time when trained with full-year data. Separated by season, winter is considerably more predictable (97.3%), followed by post-monsoon (92.8%), monsoon (90.3%), and summer (88.9%). These results show the importance of training machine learning methods with season-specific data sets and comparing a large number of methods for specific applications.

The application of machine learning techniques to the epidemiology of COVID-19 is a necessary measure that can be exploited to curtail the further spread of this endemic. Conventional techniques used to determine the epidemiology of COVID-19 are slow and costly, and data are scarce. We investigate the effects of noise filters on the performance of machine learning algorithms on the COVID-19 epidemiology dataset. Noise filter algorithms are used to remove noise from the datasets utilized in this study. We applied nine machine learning techniques to classify the epidemiology of COVID-19, which are bagging, boosting, support vector machine, bidirectional long short-term memory, decision tree, naïve Bayes, k-nearest neighbor, random forest, and multinomial logistic regression. Data from patients who contracted coronavirus disease were collected from the Kaggle database between 23 January 2020 and 24 June 2020. Noisy and filtered data were used in our experiments. As a result of denoising, machine learning models have produced high results for the prediction of COVID-19 cases in South Korea. For isolated cases after performing noise filtering operations, machine learning techniques achieved an accuracy between 98–100%. The results indicate that filtering noise from the dataset can improve the accuracy of COVID-19 case prediction algorithms.

Twitter is one of the most popular platforms used to share and post ideas. Hackers and anonymous attackers use these platforms maliciously, and their behavior can be used to predict the risk of future attacks, by gathering and classifying hackers’ tweets using machine-learning techniques. Previous approaches for detecting infected tweets are based on human efforts or text analysis, thus they are limited to capturing the hidden text between tweet lines. The main aim of this research paper is to enhance the efficiency of hacker detection for the Twitter platform using the complex networks technique with adapted machine learning algorithms. This work presents a methodology that collects a list of users with their followers who are sharing their posts that have similar interests from a hackers’ community on Twitter. The list is built based on a set of suggested keywords that are the commonly used terms by hackers in their tweets. After that, a complex network is generated for all users to find relations among them in terms of network centrality, closeness, and betweenness. After extracting these values, a dataset of the most influential users in the hacker community is assembled. Subsequently, tweets belonging to users in the extracted dataset are gathered and classified into positive and negative classes. The output of this process is utilized with a machine learning process by applying different algorithms. This research build and investigate an accurate dataset containing real users who belong to a hackers’ community. Correctly, classified instances were measured for accuracy using the average values of K-nearest neighbor, Naive Bayes, Random Tree, and the support vector machine techniques, demonstrating about 90% and 88% accuracy for cross-validation and percentage split respectively. Consequently, the proposed network cyber Twitter model is able to detect hackers, and determine if tweets pose a risk to future institutions and individuals to provide early warning of possible attacks.

Financial area analysis is not limited to enterprise performance analysis. It is worth analyzing as wide an area as possible to obtain the full impression of a specific enterprise. News website content is a datum source that expresses the public’s opinion on enterprise operations, status, etc. Therefore, it is worth analyzing the news portal article text. Sentiment analysis in English texts and financial area texts exist, and are accurate, the complexity of Lithuanian language is mostly concentrated on sentiment analysis of comment texts, and does not provide high accuracy. Therefore in this paper, the supervised machine learning model was implemented to assign sentiment analysis on financial context news, gathered from Lithuanian language websites. The analysis was made using three commonly used classification algorithms in the field of sentiment analysis. The hyperparameters optimization using the grid search was performed to discover the best parameters of each classifier. All experimental investigations were made using the newly collected datasets from four Lithuanian news websites. The results of the applied machine learning algorithms show that the highest accuracy is obtained using a non-balanced dataset, via the multinomial Naive Bayes algorithm (71.1%). The other algorithm accuracies were slightly lower: a long short-term memory (71%), and a support vector machine (70.4%).
