We propose an artificial endocrine system (AES) for extracting the knowledge from database so that effective and reliable decision rules can be constructed. The proposed AES mimics the functionality of biological endocrine system (BES) to some extent. A mathematical model is proposed for expressive representation of endocrine system as well as for homeostasis. Further, different aspects of our proposed "Artificial endocrine system for knowledge discovery" (AESKD) have been compared with state of art classifiers e.g., support vector machine, neural network, radial basis function (RBF) network and K-NN for some bench mark datasets.

Above-ground biomass (AGB) directly relates to the productivity of forests. Precisely, AGB mapping for regional forests based on very high resolution (VHR) imagery is widely needed for evaluation of productivity. However, the diversity of variables and algorithms and the difficulties inherent in high resolution optical imagery make it complex. In this paper, we explored the potentials of the state-of-art algorithm convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which are widely used for its high-level representation, but rarely applied for AGB estimation. Four experiments were carried out to compare the performance of CNNs and other state-of-art Machine Learning (ML) algorithms: (1) performance of CNN using bands, (2) performance of Random Forest (RF), support vector regression (SVR), artificial neural network (ANN) on bands, and vegetation indices (VIs). (3) Performance of RF, SVR, and ANN on gray-level co-occurrence matrices (GLCM), and exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA), and (4) performance of RF, SVR, and ANN based on all combined data and ESDA+VIs. CNNs reached satisfactory results (with R2 = 0.943) even with limited input variables (i.e., only bands). In comparison, RF and SVR with elaborately designed data obtained slightly better accuracy than CNN. For examples, RF based on GLCM textures reached an R2 of 0.979 and RF based on all combined data reached a close R2 of 0.974. However, the results of ANN were much worse (with the best R2 of 0.885).

In content-based image retrieval (CBIR), content of an image can be expressed in terms of different features such as color, texture, shape, or text annotations. Retrieval based on these features can be various by the way how to combine the feature values. Most of the existing approaches assume a linear relationship between different features, and the usefulness of such systems was limited due to the difficulty in representing high-level concepts using low-level features. In this paper, we introduce Neural Network-based Flexible Image Retrieval (NNFIR) system, a human-computer interaction approach to CBIR using Radial Basis Function (RBF) network to combine the values of the heterogeneous features. By using the RBF network, this approach determines nonlinear relationship between features so that more accurate similarity comparison between images can be supported. The experimental results show that the proposed approach has the superior retrieval performance than the existing linear combining method, the rank-based method and the BackPropagation-based method. Although the proposed retrieval model is for CBIR, it can be easily expanded to handle other media types, such as video and audio.

A inner knuckle print identification system has been designed and developed. This work presents a new approach to authenticate people according to their finger textures. This proposed method consists of three stages. They are preprocessing, feature extraction and matching. In the first stage, noise is suppressed using an image filtering. In the second stage, features are extracted by local line binary pattern. Artificial neural network and support vector machine are used to provide an efficient matching algorithm for inner knuckle print authentication. After matching, the algorithm returns the best match for the given fingerprint parameters. The use of inner knuckle print in biometric identification has been the most widely used authentication system. A classification with an accuracy of 89% and 97% has been obtained by support vector machine and artificial neural network classifier.

Abstract:Continuous recording of intraluminal pressures for extended periods of time is currently regarded as a valuable method for detection of esophageal motor abnormalities. A subsequent automatic analysis of the resulting motility data relies on strict mathematical criteria for recognition of pressure events. Due to great variation in events, this method often fails to detect biologically relevant pressure variations. We have tried to develop a new concept for recognition of pressure events based on a neural network. Pressures were recorded for over 23 hours in 29 normal volunteers by means of a portable data recording system. A number of pressure events and non-events were selected from 9 recordings and used for training the network. The performance of the trained network was then verified on recordings from the remaining 20 volunteers. The accuracy and sensitivity of the two systems were comparable. However, the neural network recognized pressure peaks clearly generated by muscular activity that had escaped detection by the conventional program. In conclusion, we believe that neu-rocomputing has potential advantages for automatic analysis of gastrointestinal motility data.

Under the impact of COVID-19, research on behavior recognition are highly needed. In this paper, we combine the algorithm of self-adaptive coder and recurrent neural network to realize the research of behavior pattern recognition. At present, most of the research of human behavior recognition is focused on the video data, which is based on the video number. At the same time, due to the complexity of video image data, it is easy to violate personal privacy. With the rapid development of Internet of things technology, it has attracted the attention of a large number of experts and scholars. Researchers have tried to use many machine learning methods, such as random forest, support vector machine and other shallow learning methods, which perform well in the laboratory environment, but there is still a long way to go from practical application. In this paper, a recursive neural network algorithm based on long and short term memory (LSTM) is proposed to realize the recognition of behavior patterns, so as to improve the accuracy of human activity behavior recognition.

The illegal hackers  penetrate the servers and networks of corporate and financial institutions to gain money and extract vital information. The hacking varies from one computing system to many system. They gain access by sending malicious packets in the network through virus, worms, Trojan horses etc. The hackers scan a network through various tools and collect information of network and host. Hence it is very much essential to detect the attacks as they enter into a network. The methods  available for intrusion detection are Naive Bayes, Decision tree, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Artificial Neural Networks. A neural network consists of processing units in complex manner and able to store information and make it functional for use. It acts like human brain and takes knowledge from the environment through training and learning process. Many algorithms are available for learning process This work carry out research on analysis of malicious packets and predicting the error rate in detection of injured packets through artificial neural network algorithms.

News popularity is the maximum growth of attention given for particular news article. The popularity of online news depends on various factors such as the number of social media, the number of visitor comments, the number of Likes, etc. It is therefore necessary to build an automatic decision support system to predict the popularity of the news as it will help in business intelligence too. The work presented in this study aims to find the best model to predict the popularity of online news using machine learning methods. In this work, the result analysis is performed by applying Co-relation algorithm, particle swarm optimization and principal component analysis. For performance evaluation support vector machine, naïve bayes, k-nearest neighbor and neural network classifiers are used to classify the popular and unpopular data. From the experimental results, it is observed that support vector machine and naïve bayes outperforms better with co-relation algorithm as well as k-NN and neural network outperforms better with particle swarm optimization.

This paper presents the application of Gaussian blur filters and Support Vector Machine (SVM) techniques for greeting recognition among the Yoruba tribe of Nigeria. Existing efforts have considered different recognition gestures. However, tribal greeting postures or gestures recognition for the Nigerian geographical space has not been studied before. Some cultural gestures are not correctly identified by people of the same tribe, not to mention other people from different tribes, thereby posing a challenge of misinterpretation of meaning. Also, some cultural gestures are unknown to most people outside a tribe, which could also hinder human interaction; hence there is a need to automate the recognition of Nigerian tribal greeting gestures. This work hence develops a Gaussian Blur – SVM based system capable of recognizing the Yoruba tribe greeting postures for men and women. Videos of individuals performing various greeting gestures were collected and processed into image frames. The images were resized and a Gaussian blur filter was used to remove noise from them. This research used a moment-based feature extraction algorithm to extract shape features that were passed as input to SVM. SVM is exploited and trained to perform the greeting gesture recognition task to recognize two Nigerian tribe greeting postures. To confirm the robustness of the system, 20%, 25% and 30% of the dataset acquired from the preprocessed images were used to test the system. A recognition rate of 94% could be achieved when SVM is used, as shown by the result which invariably proves that the proposed method is efficient.

: Absence seizure is a type of brain disorder in which subject get into sudden lapses in attention. Which means sudden change in brain stimulation. Most of this type of disorder is widely found in children’s (5-18 years). These Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are captured with long term monitoring system and are analyzed individually. In this paper, a Convolutional Neural Network to extract single channel EEG seizure features like Power, log sum of wavelet transform, cross correlation, and mean phase variance of each frame in a windows are extracted after pre-processing and classify them into normal or absence seizure class, is proposed as an empowerment of monitoring system by automatic detection of absence seizure. The training data is collected from the normal and absence seizure subjects in the form of Electroencephalogram. The objective is to perform automatic detection of absence seizure using single channel electroencephalogram signal as input. Here the data is used to train the proposed Convolutional Neural Network to extract and classify absence seizure. The Convolutional Neural Network consist of three layers 1] convolutional layer – which extract the features in the form of vector 2] Pooling layer – the dimensionality of output from convolutional layer is reduced and 3] Fully connected layer–the activation function called soft-max is used to find the probability distribution of output class. This paper goes through the automatic detection of absence seizure in detail and provide the comparative analysis of classification between Support Vector Machine and Convolutional Neural Network. The proposed approach outperforms the performance of Support Vector Machine by 80% in automatic detection of absence seizure and validated using confusion matrix.

Promoting safe tires with low external rolling noise increases the environmental efficiency of road transport. Although tire builders have been striving to reduce emitted noise, the issue’s sophisticated nature has made it difficult. This article aims to make the problem straightforward, relying on recent significant improvements in statistical science. In this regard, the prediction ability of new methods in this field, including support vector machine, relevance vector machine, and convolutional neural network, along with the new architecture of the neural network is compared. Tire noise is measured under the coast-by condition. Two training strategies are proposed: extracting features from a tread pattern image and directly importing an image to the model. The relevance vector method, which is trained using the first strategy, has provided the most accurate results with an error of 0.62 dB(A) in predicting the total noise level. This precise model is used instead of experimentation to analyze the sensitivity of tire noise to its parameters using a small central composite design. The parametric study reveals striking tips for reducing noise, especially in terms of interactions between parameters that have not previously been shown. Finally, a novel two-stage approach for reducing noise by tread pattern optimization is proposed, inspired by two regression models derived from statistical investigation and variance analysis. Changes in tread pattern specifications of two case studies and their randomization have resulted in a reduction of 3.2 dB(A) for a high-noise tire and 0.4 dB(A) decrement for a quieter tire.
