The machining process monitoring, especially the tool wear monitoring, is very critical in modern automated gear machining environment which needs instant detection of cutting tool state and/or process conditions, quick final diagnosis and appropriate actions. It has been realized that the non-uniform hardness of the workpiece material due to the improper heat treatment can cause expedited tool wear and unexpected tool breakage, which greatly increases difficulties and complexities in monitoring the tool conditions in gear cutting. This paper provides a solution to detect the wear conditions of the gear milling cutter in the cutting of workpiece materials with hardness variations using the audible sound signals. In this study, cutting tools and workpieces are prepared to have different flank wear classes and hardness variations respectively. A series of gear milling experiments are operated with a broad range of cutting conditions to collect sound signals. A machine learning algorithm that incorporates support vector machine (SVM) approach coupled with the application of time and frequency domain analysis is developed to correlate observed sound signals’ signatures to specified tool wear classes and workpiece hardness levels. The performance evaluation results of the proposed monitoring system have shown accurate predictions in detecting tool wear conditions and workpiece hardness variations from the sound signals in gear milling.

In a fully automated manufacturing system, tool condition monitoring system is essential to detect the failure in advance and minimize the manufacturing loses with the increase in productivity. To look for a reliable, simple and cheap solution, this paper proposes a new tool wear monitoring model to detect the tool wear progression and early detection of tool failure in end milling using audible sound signals. In this study, cutting tools are classified into six classes based on different flank wear ranges. A series of end milling experiments are operated with a broad range of cutting conditions for each class to collect sound signals. A machine learning algorithm that incorporates support vector machine (SVM) approach coupled with the application of time and frequency domain analysis is developed to correlate observed sound signals’ signatures to tool wear conditions. The performance evaluation results of the proposed algorithm have shown accurate predictions in detecting tool wear conditions from the sound signals. In addition, the proposed machine learning approach has shown the fastest response rate, which provides the good solution for on-line cutting tool monitoring.

Information technology (IT) industry in India has been facing a systemic issue of high attrition in the past few years, resulting in monetary and knowledge-based loses to the companies. The aim of this research is to develop a model to predict employee attrition and provide the organizations opportunities to address any issue and improve retention. Predictive model was developed based on supervised machine learning algorithm, support vector machine (SVM). Archival employee data (consisting of 22 input features) were collected from Human Resource databases of three IT companies in India, including their employment status (response variable) at the time of collection. Accuracy results from the confusion matrix for the SVM model showed that the model has an accuracy of 85 per cent. Also, results show that the model performs better in predicting who will leave the firm as compared to predicting who will not leave the company.

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.

Abstract Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is spreading across the world. Since at first it has appeared in Wuhan, China in December 2019, it has become a serious issue across the globe. There are no accurate resources to predict and find the disease. So, by knowing the past patients’ records, it could guide the clinicians to fight against the pandemic. Therefore, for the prediction of healthiness from symptoms Machine learning techniques can be implemented. From this we are going to analyse only the symptoms which occurs in every patient. These predictions can help clinicians in the easier manner to cure the patients. Already for prediction of many of the diseases, techniques like SVM (Support vector Machine), Fuzzy k-Means Clustering, Decision Tree algorithm, Random Forest Method, ANN (Artificial Neural Network), KNN (k-Nearest Neighbour), Naïve Bayes, Linear Regression model are used. As we haven’t faced this disease before, we can’t say which technique will give the maximum accuracy. So, we are going to provide an efficient result by comparing all the such algorithms in RStudio.

Tool wear monitoring plays an important role in the automatic machining processes. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a reliable method to predict tool wear status. In this paper, features of acoustic emission (AE) extracted from time-frequency domain are integrated with force features to indicate the status of tool wear. Meanwhile, a support vector machine (SVM) model is employed to distinguish the tool wear status. The result of the classification of different tool wear status proved that features extracted from time-frequency domain can be the recognize-features of high recognition precision.
