ABSTRACT Artificial neural networks (ANNs) have been successfully used in the last years to identify patterns in astronomical images. The use of ANN in the field of asteroid dynamics has been, however, so far somewhat limited. In this work, we used for the first time ANN for the purpose of automatically identifying the behaviour of asteroid orbits affected by the M1:2 mean-motion resonance with Mars. Our model was able to perform well above 85 per cent levels for identifying images of asteroid resonant arguments in term of standard metrics like accuracy, precision, and recall, allowing to identify the orbital type of all numbered asteroids in the region. Using supervised machine learning methods, optimized through the use of genetic algorithms, we also predicted the orbital status of all multi-opposition asteroids in the area. We confirm that the M1:2 resonance mainly affects the orbits of the Massalia, Nysa, and Vesta asteroid families.

In this paper presents a new hybrid methodology to perform fault detection and classification of aircraft structures using the tool as ARTMAP-Fuzzyand Perceptron multi-layer artificial neural networks. This method is divided into two steps, the first step performed by the multi-layer Perceptron neural network, which consists in the detection of abnormalities in the structure. The second step is performed by ARTMAP-Fuzzyneural network and consists of the classification of faults structural detected in the first time. The main application of this hybrid methodology is to assist in the inspection process of aeronautical structures in order to identify and characterize flaws as well, make decision-making in order to avoid accidents or air crashes. To evaluate this method, the modeling and simulation was carried out signals from a numerical model of an aluminum beam. The results obtained by the methodology demonstrating robustness and accuracy structural flaws.

Supervised machine learning methods, also known as classification algorithms, have been widely used in the literature for many classification tasks. In this context, some aspects of these algorithms, as the used attributes used and the form they were built, have a direct impact in the system performance. Therefore, in this paper, we evaluate the application of classification algorithms, along with attribute selection, to propose an improved version of a vision system that performs the classification of cocoa beans. The main aim of this investigation is to improve the performance of a cocoa classification system that aims at helping farmers to classify the different cocoa beans based on images of these beans.

Aim: Predicting the Heartdiseases using medical parameters of cardiac patients to get a good accuracy rate using machine learning methods like innovative Decision Tree (DT) algorithm. Materials and Methods: Supervised Machine learning Techniques with innovative Decision Tree (N = 20) and K Nearest Neighbour (KNN) (N = 20) are performed with five different datasets at each time to record five samples. Results: The Decision Tree is used to predict heart disease with the help of various medical conditions, the accuracy is achieved for DT is 98% and KNN is 72.2%. The two algorithms Decision Tree and KNN are statistically insignificant (=.737) with the independent sample T-Test value (p<0.005) with a confidence level of 95%. Conclusion: Prediction and classification of heart disease significantly seem to be better in DT than KNN.

ABSTRACT The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has detected more than 5000 γ-ray sources in its first 8 yr of operation. More than 3000 of them are blazars. About 60 per cent of the Fermi-LAT blazars are classified as BL Lacertae objects (BL Lacs) or Flat Spectrum Radio Quasars (FSRQs), while the rest remain of uncertain type. The goal of this study was to classify those blazars of uncertain type, using a supervised machine learning method based on an artificial neural network, by comparing their properties to those of known γ-ray sources. Probabilities for each of 1329 uncertain blazars to be a BL Lac or FSRQ are obtained. Using 90 per cent precision metric, 801 can be classified as BL Lacs and 406 as FSRQs while 122 still remain unclassified. This approach is of interest because it gives a fast preliminary classification of uncertain blazars. We also explored how different selections of training and testing samples affect the classification and discuss the meaning of network outputs.

Artificial Neural Network techniques are applied to the classification of faint objects, detected in digital astronomical images, and a Bayesian classifier (the neural network classifier, NNC hereafter) is proposed. This classifier can be implemented using a feedforward multilayered neural network trained by the back-propagation procedure (Werbos 1974).

Abstract Background Our understanding of movement patterns and behaviours of wildlife has advanced greatly through the use of improved tracking technologies, including application of accelerometry (ACC) across a wide range of taxa. However, most ACC studies either use intermittent sampling that hinders continuity or continuous data logging relying on tracker retrieval for data downloading which is not applicable for long term study. To allow long-term, fine-scale behavioural research, we evaluated a range of machine learning methods for their suitability for continuous on-board classification of ACC data into behaviour categories prior to data transmission. Methods We tested six supervised machine learning methods, including linear discriminant analysis (LDA), decision tree (DT), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), random forest (RF) and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) to classify behaviour using ACC data from three bird species (white stork Ciconia ciconia, griffon vulture Gyps fulvus and common crane Grus grus) and two mammals (dairy cow Bos taurus and roe deer Capreolus capreolus). Results Using a range of quality criteria, SVM, ANN, RF and XGBoost performed well in determining behaviour from ACC data and their good performance appeared little affected when greatly reducing the number of input features for model training. On-board runtime and storage-requirement tests showed that notably ANN, RF and XGBoost would make suitable on-board classifiers. Conclusions Our identification of using feature reduction in combination with ANN, RF and XGBoost as suitable methods for on-board behavioural classification of continuous ACC data has considerable potential to benefit movement ecology and behavioural research, wildlife conservation and livestock husbandry.
