Technological development, including machine learning, has a huge impact on health through an effective analysis of various chronic diseases for more accurate diagnosis and successful treatment. Kidney disease is a major chronic disease associated with aging, hypertension, and diabetes, affecting people 60 and over. Its major cause is the malfunctioning of the kidney in disposing toxins from the blood. This study analyzes chronic kidney disease using machine learning techniques based on a chronic kidney disease (CKD) dataset from the UCI machine learning data warehouse. CKD is detected using the Apriori association technique for 400 instances of chronic kidney patients with 10-fold-cross-validation testing, and the results are compared across a number of classification algorithms including ZeroR, OneR, naive Bayes, J48, and IBk (k-nearest-neighbor). The dataset is preprocessed by completing and normalizing missing data. The most relevant features are selected from the dataset for improved accuracy and reduced training time. The results for selected features of the dataset indicate 99% detection accuracy for CKD based on Apriori. The identified technique is further tested using four patient data samples to predict their CKD.

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.


Machine Learning is empowering many aspects of day-to-day lives from filtering the content on social networks to suggestions of products that we may be looking for. This technology focuses on taking objects as image input to find new observations or show items based on user interest. The major discussion here is the Machine Learning techniques where we use supervised learning where the computer learns by the input data/training data and predict result based on experience. We also discuss the machine learning algorithms: Naïve Bayes Classifier, K-Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, Decision Tress, Boosted Trees, Support Vector Machine, and use these classifiers on a dataset Malgenome and Drebin which are the Android Malware Dataset. Android is an operating system that is gaining popularity these days and with a rise in demand of these devices the rise in Android Malware. The traditional techniques methods which were used to detect malware was unable to detect unknown applications. We have run this dataset on different machine learning classifiers and have recorded the results. The experiment result provides a comparative analysis that is based on performance, accuracy, and cost.

In this era of Cloud Computing and Machine Learning where every kind of work is getting automated through machine learning techniques running off of cloud servers to complete them more efficiently and quickly, what needs to be addressed is how we are changing our education systems and minimizing the troubles related to our education systems with all the advancements in technology. One of the the prominent issues in front of students has always been their graduate admissions and the colleges they should apply to. It has always been difficult to decide as to which university or college should they apply according to their marks obtained during their undergrad as not only it’s a tedious and time consuming thing to apply for number of universities at a single time but also expensive. Thus many machine learning solutions have emerged in the recent years to tackle this problem and provide various predictions, estimations and consultancies so that students can easily make their decisions about applying to the universities with higher chances of admission. In this paper, we review the machine learning techniques which are prevalent and provide accurate predictions regarding university admissions. We compare different regression models and machine learning methodologies such as, Random Forest, Linear Regression, Stacked Ensemble Learning, Support Vector Regression, Decision Trees, KNN(K-Nearest Neighbor) etc, used by other authors in their works and try to reach on a conclusion as to which technique will provide better accuracy.

Early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression is crucial for proper disease management. Most studies concentrate on neuroimaging data analysis of baseline visits only. They ignore the fact that AD is a chronic disease and patient’s data are naturally longitudinal. In addition, there are no studies that examine the effect of dementia medicines on the behavior of the disease. In this paper, we propose a machine learning-based architecture for early progression detection of AD based on multimodal data of AD drugs and cognitive scores data. We compare the performance of five popular machine learning techniques including support vector machine, random forest, logistic regression, decision tree, and K-nearest neighbor to predict AD progression after 2.5 years. Extensive experiments are performed using an ADNI dataset of 1036 subjects. The cross-validation performance of most algorithms has been improved by fusing the drugs and cognitive scores data. The results indicate the important role of patient’s taken drugs on the progression of AD disease.

Machine learning techniques, is a crucial tool to build analytical models in EEG data analysis. These models are an excellent choice for analyzing the high variability in EEG signals. The advancement in EEG-based Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) demands advanced processing tools and algorithms for exploration of EEG signals. In the context of the EEG-based BCI for speech communication, few classification and clustering techniques is presented in this book chapter. A broad perspective of the techniques and implementation of the weighted k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN), Support vector machine (SVM), Decision Tree (DT) and Random Forest (RF) is explained and their usage in EEG signal analysis is mentioned. We suggest that these machine learning techniques provides not only potentially valuable control mechanism for BCI but also a deeper understanding of neuropathological mechanisms underlying the brain in ways that are not possible by conventional linear analysis.

The use of technology for the purpose of improving crop yields, quality and quantity of the harvest, as well as maintaining the quality of the crop against adverse environmental elements (such as rodent or insect infestation, as well as microbial disease agents) is becoming more critical for farming practice worldwide. One of the technology areas that is proving to be most promising in this area is artificial intelligence, or more specifically, machine learning techniques. This chapter aims to give the reader an overview of how machine learning techniques can help solve the problem of monitoring crop quality and disease identification. The fundamental principles are illustrated through two different case studies, one involving the use of artificial neural networks for harvested grain condition monitoring and the other concerning crop disease identification using support vector machines and k-nearest neighbor algorithm.
