The Voice

The speech entailed in human voice comprises essentially paralinguistic information used in many voice-recognition applications. Gender voice is considered one of the pivotal parts to be detected from a given voice, a task that involves certain complications. In order to distinguish gender from a voice signal, a set of techniques have been employed to determine relevant features to be utilized for building a model from a training set. This model is useful for determining the gender (i.e., male or female) from a voice signal. The contributions are three-fold including (i) providing analysis information about well-known voice signal features using a prominent dataset, (ii) studying various machine learning models of different theoretical families to classify the voice gender, and (iii) using three prominent feature selection algorithms to find promisingly optimal features for improving classification models. The experimental results show the importance of subfeatures over others, which are vital for enhancing the efficiency of classification models’ performance. Experimentation reveals that the best recall value is equal to 99.97%; the best recall value is 99.7% for two models of deep learning (DL) and support vector machine (SVM), and with feature selection, the best recall value is 100% for SVM techniques.

Breast cancer is a common cancer in female. Accurate and early detection of breast cancer can play a vital role in treatment. This paper presents and evaluates a thermogram based Computer-Aided Detection (CAD) system for the detection of breast cancer. In this CAD system, the Random Subset Feature Selection (RSFS) algorithm and hybrid of minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance (mRMR) algorithm and Genetic Algorithm (GA) with RSFS algorithm are utilized for feature selection. In addition, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) and k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN) algorithms are utilized as classifier algorithm. The proposed CAD system is verified using MATLAB 2017 and a dataset that is composed of breast images from 78 patients. The implementation results demonstrate that using RSFS algorithm for feature selection and kNN and SVM algorithms as classifier have accuracy of 85.36% and 75%, and sensitivity of 94.11% and 79.31%, respectively. In addition, using hybrid GA and RSFS algorithm for feature selection and kNN and SVM algorithms as classifier have accuracy of 83.87% and 69.56%, and sensitivity of 96% and 81.81%, respectively, and using hybrid mRMR and RSFS algorithms for feature selection and kNN and SVM algorithms as classifier have accuracy of 77.41% and 73.07%, and sensitivity of 98% and 72.72%, respectively.

Proteins Classification

In this chapter, we are interested in proteins classification starting from their primary structures. The goal is to automatically affect proteins sequences to their families. The main originality of the approach is that we directly apply the text categorization framework for the protein classification with very minor modifications. The main steps of the task are clearly identified: we must extract features from the unstructured dataset, we use the fixed length n-grams descriptors; we select and combine the most relevant one for the learning phase; and then, we select the most promising learning algorithm in order to produce accurate predictive model. We obtain essentially two main results. First, the approach is credible, giving accurate results with only 2-grams descriptors length. Second, in our context where many irrelevant descriptors are automatically generated, we must combine aggressive feature selection algorithms and low variance classifiers such as SVM (Support Vector Machine).

This paper reports a comparative study of feature selection algorithms on a hyperlipimedia data set. Three methods of feature selection were evaluated, including document frequency (DF), information gain (IG) and aχ2 statistic (CHI). The classification systems use a vector to represent a document and use tfidfie (term frequency, inverted document frequency, and inverted entropy) to compute term weights. In order to compare the effectives of feature selection, we used three classification methods: Naïve Bayes (NB), k Nearest Neighbor (kNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM). The experimental results show that IG and CHI outperform significantly DF, and SVM and NB is more effective than KNN when macro-averagingF1 measure is used. DF is suitable for the task of large text classification.

The second development program developed in this work was introduced to obtain physicochemical properties of DPP-IV inhibitors. Based on the computation of molecular descriptors, a two-stage feature selection method called mRMR-BFS (minimum redundancy maximum relevance-backward feature selection) was adopted. Then, the support vector regression (SVR) was used in the establishment of the model to map DPP-IV inhibitors to their corresponding inhibitory activity possible. The squared correlation coefficient for the training set of LOOCV and the test set are 0.815 and 0.884, respectively. An online server for predicting inhibitory activity pIC50of the DPP-IV inhibitors as described in this paper has been given in the introduction.

The filtering feature-selection algorithm is a kind of important approach to dimensionality reduction in the field of the text categorization. Most of filtering feature-selection algorithms evaluate the significance of a feature for category based on balanced dataset and do not consider the imbalance factor of dataset. In this paper, a new scheme was proposed, which can weaken the adverse effect caused by the imbalance factor in the corpus. We evaluated the improved versions of nine well-known feature-selection methods (Information Gain, Chi statistic, Document Frequency, Orthogonal Centroid Feature Selection, DIA association factor, Comprehensive Measurement Feature Selection, Deviation from Poisson Feature Selection, improved Gini index, and Mutual Information) using naïve Bayes and support vector machines on three benchmark document collections (20-Newsgroups, Reuters-21578, and WebKB). The experimental results show that the improved scheme can significantly enhance the performance of the feature-selection methods.

We propose an invasive brain-machine interface (BMI) that decodes the orientation of a visual grating from spike train recordings made with a 96 microelectrodes array chronically implanted into the prelunate gyrus (area V4) of a rhesus monkey. The orientation is decoded irrespective of the grating's spatial frequency. Since pyramidal cells are less prominent in visual areas, compared to (pre)motor areas, the recordings contain spikes with smaller amplitudes, compared to the noise level. Hence, rather than performing spike decoding, feature selection algorithms are applied to extract the required information for the decoder. Two types of feature selection procedures are compared, filter and wrapper. The wrapper is combined with a linear discriminant analysis classifier, and the filter is followed by a radial-basis function support vector machine classifier. In addition, since we have a multiclass classification problen, different methods for combining pairwise classifiers are compared.

AbstractFinding effective and objective biomarkers to inform the diagnosis of schizophrenia is of great importance yet remains challenging. Relatively little work has been conducted on multi-biological data for the diagnosis of schizophrenia. In this cross-sectional study, we extracted multiple features from three types of biological data, including gut microbiota data, blood data, and electroencephalogram data. Then, an integrated framework of machine learning consisting of five classifiers, three feature selection algorithms, and four cross validation methods was used to discriminate patients with schizophrenia from healthy controls. Our results show that the support vector machine classifier without feature selection using the input features of multi-biological data achieved the best performance, with an accuracy of 91.7% and an AUC of 96.5% (p < 0.05). These results indicate that multi-biological data showed better discriminative capacity for patients with schizophrenia than single biological data. The top 5% discriminative features selected from the optimal model include the gut microbiota features (Lactobacillus, Haemophilus, and Prevotella), the blood features (superoxide dismutase level, monocyte-lymphocyte ratio, and neutrophil count), and the electroencephalogram features (nodal local efficiency, nodal efficiency, and nodal shortest path length in the temporal and frontal-parietal brain areas). The proposed integrated framework may be helpful for understanding the pathophysiology of schizophrenia and developing biomarkers for schizophrenia using multi-biological data.

The Impact

Text classification is a vital process due to the large volume of electronic articles. One of the drawbacks of text classification is the high dimensionality of feature space. Scholars developed several algorithms to choose relevant features from article text such as Chi-square (x2 ), Information Gain (IG), and Correlation (CFS). These algorithms have been investigated widely for English text, while studies for Arabic text are still limited. In this paper, we investigated four well-known algorithms: Support Vector Machines (SVMs), Naïve Bayes (NB), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Decision Tree against benchmark Arabic textual datasets, called Saudi Press Agency (SPA) to evaluate the impact of feature selection methods. Using the WEKA tool, we have experimented the application of the four mentioned classification algorithms with and without feature selection algorithms. The results provided clear evidence that the three feature selection methods often improves classification accuracy by eliminating irrelevant features.
