Collaborative filtering based recommender systems have proven to be extremely successful in settings where user preference data on items is abundant. However, collaborative filtering algorithms are hindered by their weakness against the item cold-start problem and general lack of interpretability. Ontology-based recommender systems exploit hierarchical organizations of users and items to enhance browsing, recommendation, and profile construction. While ontology-based approaches address the shortcomings of their collaborative filtering counterparts, ontological organizations of items can be difficult to obtain for items that mostly belong to the same category (e.g., television series episodes). In this paper, we present an ontology-based recommender system that integrates the knowledge represented in a large ontology of literary themes to produce fiction content recommendations. The main novelty of this work is an ontology-based method for computing similarities between items and its integration with the classical Item-KNN (K-nearest neighbors) algorithm. As a study case, we evaluated the proposed method against other approaches by performing the classical rating prediction task on a collection of Star Trek television series episodes in an item cold-start scenario. This transverse evaluation provides insights into the utility of different information resources and methods for the initial stages of recommender system development. We found our proposed method to be a convenient alternative to collaborative filtering approaches for collections of mostly similar items, particularly when other content-based approaches are not applicable or otherwise unavailable. Aside from the new methods, this paper contributes a testbed for future research and an online framework to collaboratively extend the ontology of literary themes to cover other narrative content.

Abstract: Malware is routinely used for illegal reasons, and new malware variants are discovered every day. Computer vision in computer security is one of the most significant disciplines of research today, and it has witnessed tremendous growth in the preceding decade due to its efficacy. We employed research in machine-learning and deep-learning technology such as Logistic Regression, ANN, CNN, transfer learning on CNN, and LSTM to arrive at our conclusions. We have published analysis-based results from a range of categorization models in the literature. InceptionV3 was trained using a transfer learning technique, which yielded reasonable results when compared with other methods such as LSTM. On the test dataset, the transferring learning technique was about 98.76 percent accurate, while on the train dataset, it was around 99.6 percent accurate. Keywords: Malware, illegal activity, Deep learning, Network Security,

Abstract In the last decade, the Facial Expression Recognition field has been studied widely and become the base for many researchers, and still challenging in computer vision. Machine learning technique used in facial expression recognition facing many problems, since human emotions expressed differently from one to another. Nevertheless, Deep learning that represents a novel area of research within machine learning technology has the ability for classifying people’s faces into different emotion classes by using a Deep Neural Network (DNN). The Convolution Neural Network (CNN) method has been used widely and proved as very efficient in the facial expression recognition field. In this study, a CNN technique for facial expression recognition has been presented. The performance of this study has been evaluated using the fer2013 dataset, the total number of images has been used. The accuracy of each epoch has been tested which is trained on 29068 samples, validate on 3589 samples. The overall accuracy of 69.85% has been obtained for the proposed method.

AbstractIn the context of recommender systems based on collaborative filtering (CF), obtaining accurate neighborhoods of the items of the datasets is relevant. Beyond particular individual recommendations, knowing these neighbors is fundamental for adding differentiating factors to recommendations, such as explainability, detecting shilling attacks, visualizing item relations, clustering, and providing reliabilities. This paper proposes a deep learning architecture to efficiently and accurately obtain CF neighborhoods. The proposed design makes use of a classification neural network to encode the dataset patterns of the items, followed by a generative process that obtains the neighborhood of each item by means of an iterative gradient localization algorithm. Experiments have been conducted using five popular open datasets and five representative baselines. The results show that the proposed method improves the quality of the neighborhoods compared to the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm for the five selected similarity measure baselines. The efficiency of the proposed method is also shown by comparing its computational requirements with that of KNN.

Recommender systems have been applied in a wide range of domains such as e-commerce, media, banking, and utilities. This kind of system provides personalized suggestions based on large amounts of data in order to increase user satisfaction. These suggestions help client select products, while organizations can increase the consumption of a product. In the case of social data, sentiment analysis can help gain better understanding of a user’s attitudes, opinions and emotions, which is beneficial to integrate in recommender systems for achieving higher recommendation reliability. On the one hand, this information can be used to complement explicit ratings given to products by users. On the other hand, sentiment analysis of items that can be derived from online news services, blogs, social media or even from the recommender systems themselves is seen as capable of providing better recommendations to users. In this study, we present and evaluate a recommendation approach that integrates sentiment analysis into collaborative filtering methods. The recommender system proposal is based on an adaptive architecture, which includes improved techniques for feature extraction and deep learning models based on sentiment analysis. The results of the empirical study performed with two popular datasets show that sentiment–based deep learning models and collaborative filtering methods can significantly improve the recommender system’s performance.

Recommender Systems is a highly applicable subclass of information filtering systems, aiming to provide users with personalized item suggestions. These systems build on collaborative filtering and content-based methods to overcome the information overload issue. Hybrid recommender systems combine the abovementioned methods and are generally proved to be more efficient than the classical approaches. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for the development of a hybrid recommender system that is able to make recommendations under the limitation of processing small amounts of data with strong intercorrelation. The proposed hybrid solution integrates Machine Learning and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis algorithms. The experimental evaluation of the proposed solution indicates that it performs better than widely used Machine Learning algorithms such as the k-Nearest Neighbors and Decision Trees.

The existence of noise in the data significantly impacts the accuracy of classification. In this article, we are concerned with the development of novel classification algorithms that can efficiently handle noise. To attain this, we recognize an analogy between k nearest neighbors (kNN) classification and user-based collaborative filtering algorithms, as they both find a neighborhood of similar past data and process its contents to make a prediction about new data. The recent development of item-based collaborative filtering algorithms, which are based on similarities between items instead of transactions, addresses the sensitivity of user-based methods against noise in recommender systems. For this reason, we focus on the item-based paradigm, compared to kNN algorithms, to provide improved robustness against noise for the problem of classification. We propose two new item-based algorithms, which are experimentally evaluated with kNN. Our results show that, in terms of precision, the proposed methods outperform kNN classification by up to 15%, whereas compared to other methods, like the C4.5 system, improvement exceeds 30%.

     Heart disease is a non-communicable disease and the number 1 cause of death in Indonesia. According to WHO predictions, heart disease will cause 11 million deaths in 2020. Bad lifestyle and unhealthy consumption patterns of modern society are the causes of this disease experienced by many people. Lack of knowledge about heart conditions and the potential dangers cause heart disease attacks before any preventive measures are taken. This study aims to produce a system for Predicting Heart Disease, which benefits to prevent and reduce the number of deaths caused by heart disease. The use of technology in the health sector has been widely practiced in various places and one of the advanced technologies is machine learning. Machine learning technology can be used to predict the potential patients of heart disease by implementing the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). The algorithm results in 65.93% for its accuracy, which is then improved to 82.41% due to the z-score normalization. It shows that z-score can noticeably improve the accuracy of the KNN algorithm. The system is developed based on a website that uses the Flask micro-framework so that development is more efficient. Flask is a micro-framework based on the Python programming language that does not contain many tools and libraries, so it is more portable and does not utilize a lot of resources.
