Bangladesh, being a densely populated country, hinges on agriculture for the security of finance and food to a large extent. Hence, both the fruits’ quantity and quality turn out to be very important, which can be degraded due to the attacks of various diseases. Automated fruit disease recognition can help fruit farmers, especially remote farmers, for whom adequate cultivation support is required. Two daunting problems, namely disease detection, and disease classification are raised by automated fruit disease recognition. In this research, we conduct an intense investigation of the applicability of automated recognition of the diseases of three available Bangladeshi local fruits, viz. guava, jackfruit, and papaya. After exerting four notable segmentation algorithms, [Formula: see text]-means clustering segmentation algorithm is selected to segregate the disease-contaminated parts from a fruit image. Then some discriminatory features are extracted from these disease-contaminated parts. Nine noteworthy classification algorithms are applied for disease classification to thoroughly get the measure of their merits. It is observed that random forest outperforms the eight other classifiers by disclosing an accuracy of 96.8% and 89.59% for guava and jackfruit, respectively, whereas support vector machine attains an accuracy of 94.9% for papaya, which can be claimed good as well as attractive for forthcoming research.

Diseases in fruit cause devastating problems in economic losses and production in the agricultural industry worldwide. In this chapter, a method to detect and classify fruit diseases automatically is proposed and experimentally validated. The image processing-based proposed approach is composed of the following main steps: in the first step K-Means clustering technique is used for the defect segmentation, in the second step some color and texture features are extracted from the segmented defected part, and finally diseases are classified into one of the classes by using a multi-class Support Vector Machine. The authors have considered diseases of apple as a test case and evaluated the approach for three types of apple diseases, namely apple scab, apple blotch, and apple rot, along with normal apples. The experimental results express that the proposed solution can significantly support accurate detection and automatic classification of fruit diseases. The classification accuracy for the proposed approach is achieved up to 93% using textural information and multi-class support vector machine.

Background:: Breast cancer is one of the diseases which cause number of deaths ever year across the globe, early detection and diagnosis of such type of disease is a challenging task in order to reduce the number of deaths. Now a days various techniques of machine learning and data mining are used for medical diagnosis which has proven there metal by which prediction can be done for the chronic diseases like cancer which can save the life’s of the patients suffering from such type of disease. The major concern of this study is to find the prediction accuracy of the classification algorithms like Support Vector Machine, J48, Naïve Bayes and Random Forest and to suggest the best algorithm. Objective:: The objective of this study is to assess the prediction accuracy of the classification algorithms in terms of efficiency and effectiveness. Methods: This paper provides a detailed analysis of the classification algorithms like Support Vector Machine, J48, Naïve Bayes and Random Forest in terms of their prediction accuracy by applying 10 fold cross validation technique on the Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer dataset using WEKA open source tool. Results:: The result of this study states that Support Vector Machine has achieved the highest prediction accuracy of 97.89 % with low error rate of 0.14%. Conclusion:: This paper provides a clear view over the performance of the classification algorithms in terms of their predicting ability which provides a helping hand to the medical practitioners to diagnose the chronic disease like breast cancer effectively.

Abstract Alzheimer's is the main reason for dementia, that affects frequently older adults. This disease is costly especially, in terms of treatment. In addition, Alzheimer's is one of the deaths causes in the old-age citizens. Early Alzheimer's detection helps medical staffs in this disease diagnosis, which will certainly decrease the risk of death. This made the early Alzheimer's disease detection a crucial problem in the healthcare industry. The objective of this research study is to introduce a computer-aided diagnosis system for Alzheimer's disease detection using machine learning techniques. We employed data from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) and the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies (OASIS) brain datasets. Common supervised machine learning techniques have been applied for automatic Alzheimer’s disease detection such as: logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, linear discriminant analysis, etc. The best accuracy values provided by the machine learning classifiers are 99.43% and 99.10% given by respectively, logistic regression and support vector machine using ADNI dataset, whereas for the OASIS dataset, we obtained 84.33% and 83.92% given by respectively logistic regression and random forest.

This study proposes a method and device for the intelligent mobile monitoring of oestrus on a sow farm, applied in the field of sow production. A bionic boar model that imitates the sounds, smells, and touch of real boars was built to detect the oestrus of sows after weaning. Machine vision technology was used to identify the interactive behaviour between empty sows and bionic boars and to establish deep belief network (DBN), sparse autoencoder (SAE), and support vector machine (SVM) models, and the resulting recognition accuracy rates were 96.12%, 98.25%, and 90.00%, respectively. The interaction times and frequencies between the sow and the bionic boar and the static behaviours of both ears during heat were further analysed. The results show that there is a strong correlation between the duration of contact between the oestrus sow and the bionic boar and the static behaviours of both ears. The average contact duration between the sows in oestrus and the bionic boars was 29.7 s/3 min, and the average duration in which the ears of the oestrus sows remained static was 41.3 s/3 min. The interactions between the sow and the bionic boar were used as the basis for judging the sow’s oestrus states. In contrast with the methods of other studies, the proposed innovative design for recyclable bionic boars can be used to check emotions, and machine vision technology can be used to quickly identify oestrus behaviours. This approach can more accurately obtain the oestrus duration of a sow and provide a scientific reference for a sow’s conception time.
