Blood donation is the process of taking blood from someone used for blood transfusions. Blood type, sex, age, blood pressure, and hemoglobin are blood donor criteria that must be met and processed manually to classify blood donor eligibility. The manual process resulted in an irregular blood supply because blood donor candidates did not meet the criteria. This study implements machine learning algorithms includes kNN, naïve Bayes, and neural network methods to determine the eligibility of blood donors. This study used 600 training data divided into two classes, namely potential and non-potential donors. The test results show that the accuracy of the neural network is 84.3 %, higher than kNN and naïve Bayes, respectively of 75 % and 84.17 %. It indicates that the neural network method outperforms comparing with kNN and naïve Bayes.

Abstract: Social networking platforms have given us incalculable opportunities than ever before, and its benefits are undeniable. Despite benefits, people may be humiliated, insulted, bullied, and harassed by anonymous users, strangers, or peers. Cyberbullying refers to the use of technology to humiliate and slander other people. It takes form of hate messages sent through social media and emails. With the exponential increase of social media users, cyberbullying has been emerged as a form of bullying through electronic messages. We have tried to propose a possible solution for the above problem, our project aims to detect cyberbullying in tweets using ML Classification algorithms like Naïve Bayes, KNN, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Support Vector etc. and also we will apply the NLTK (Natural language toolkit) which consist of bigram, trigram, n-gram and unigram on Naïve Bayes to check its accuracy. Finally, we will compare the results of proposed and baseline features with other machine learning algorithms. Findings of the comparison indicate the significance of the proposed features in cyberbullying detection. Keywords: Cyber bullying, Machine Learning Algorithms, Twitter, Natural Language Toolkit

Structural Health Monitoring is essential in today’s world where large amount of money and labour are involved in building a structure. There arises a need to periodically check whether the built structure is strong and flawless, also how long it will be strong and if not how much it is damaged. These information are needed so that the precautions can be made accordingly. Otherwise, it may result in disastrous accidents which may take away even human lives. There are various methods to evaluate a structure. In this paper, we apply various classification algorithms like J48, Naive Bayes and many other classifiers available, to the dataset to check on the accuracy of the prediction determined by all of these classification algorithms and ar-rive at the conclusion of the best possible classifier to say whether a structure is damaged or not.

Ammonoid identification is crucial to biostratigraphy, systematic palaeontology, and evolutionary biology, but may prove difficult when shell features and sutures are poorly preserved. This necessitates novel approaches to ammonoid taxonomy. This study aimed to taxonomize ammonoids by their conch geometry using supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms. Ammonoid measurement data (conch diameter, whorl height, whorl width, and umbilical width) were taken from the Paleobiology Database (PBDB). 11 species with ≥50 specimens each were identified providing N=781 total unique specimens. Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, K-Nearest Neighbours, and Support Vector Machine classifiers were applied to the PBDB data with a 5x5 nested cross-validation approach to obtain unbiased generalization performance estimates across a grid search of algorithm parameters. All supervised classifiers achieved ≥70% accuracy in identifying ammonoid species, with Naive Bayes demonstrating the least over-fitting. The unsupervised clustering algorithms K-Means, DBSCAN, OPTICS, Mean Shift, and Affinity Propagation achieved Normalized Mutual Information scores of ≥0.6, with the centroid-based methods having most success. This presents a reasonably-accurate proof-of-concept approach to ammonoid classification which may assist identification in cases where more traditional methods are not feasible.

Medical health systems have been concentrating on artificial intelligence techniques for speedy diagnosis. However, the recording of health data in a standard form still requires attention so that machine learning can be more accurate and reliable by considering multiple features. The aim of this study is to develop a general framework for recording diagnostic data in an international standard format to facilitate prediction of disease diagnosis based on symptoms using machine learning algorithms. Efforts were made to ensure error-free data entry by developing a user-friendly interface. Furthermore, multiple machine learning algorithms including Decision Tree, Random Forest, Naive Bayes and Neural Network algorithms were used to analyze patient data based on multiple features, including age, illness history and clinical observations. This data was formatted according to structured hierarchies designed by medical experts, whereas diagnosis was made as per the ICD-10 coding developed by the American Academy of Ophthalmology. Furthermore, the system is designed to evolve through self-learning by adding new classifications for both diagnosis and symptoms. The classification results from tree-based methods demonstrated that the proposed framework performs satisfactorily, given a sufficient amount of data. Owing to a structured data arrangement, the random forest and decision tree algorithms’ prediction rate is more than 90% as compared to more complex methods such as neural networks and the naïve Bayes algorithm.

Air pollution is the largest environmental and public health challenge in the world today. Air pollution leads to adverse effects on human health, climate and ecosystem. Air is getting polluted because of release of Toxic gases by industries, vehicular emissions and increased concentration of harmful gases and particulate matter in the atmosphere. In order to overcome these issues an IoT based air and sound pollution monitoring system is designed. To design this monitoring system, machine learning algorithms K-NN and Naive Bayes are used. K-Nearest Neighbour and Naive Bayes are machine learning algorithms used to predict the status of pollution present in the environment. In this system, analog to digital converter, global service mobile communication, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, carbon monoxide and sound sensors are interfaced with raspberry pi using serial cable. The sensor data is uploaded in thinkspeak (IoT) and webpage. This data is compared with the trained data to check accuracy. To calculate the accuracy of both algorithms, Python code is developed using python software tool.

Advancement in technology has helped people to live a long and better life. But the increased life expectancy has also elevated the risk of age related disorders, especially the neurodegenerative disorders. Alzheimer’s is one such neurodegenerative disorder, which is also the leading contributor towards dementia in elderly people. Despite of extensive research in this field, scientists have failed to find a cure for the disease till date. This makes early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s very crucial so as to delay its progression and improve the condition of the patient. Various techniques are being employed for diagnosing Alzheimer’s which include neuropsychological tests, medical imaging, blood based biomarkers, etc. Apart from this, various machine learning algorithms have been employed so far to diagnose Alzheimer’s in its early stages. In the current research, authors compared the performance of various machine learning techniques i.e., Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Decision Trees (DT), Random Forests (RF) and Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) on Alzheimer’s dataset. This paper experimentally demonstrated that normalization exhibits a predominant role in enhancing the efficiency of some machine learning algorithms. Therefore it becomes imperative to choose the algorithms as per the available data. In this paper, the efficiency of the given machine learning methods was compared in terms of accuracy and f1-score. Naïve Bayes gave a better overall performance for both accuracy and f1-score and it also remained unaffected with the normalization of data along with LDA, DT and RF. Whereas KNN, SVM and MLP showed a drastic (17% to 86%) improvement in the performance when they are given normalized data as compared to un-normalized data from Alzheimer’s dataset.

Internet of things (IoT) has led to several security threats and challenges within society. Regardless of the benefits that it has brought with it to the society, IoT could compromise the security and privacy of individuals and companies at various levels. Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks, among others, are the most common attack types that face the IoT networks. To counter such attacks, companies should implement an efficient classification/detection model, which is not an easy task. This paper proposes a classification model to examine the effectiveness of several machine-learning algorithms, namely, Random Forest (RF), k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Naïve Bayes. The machine learning algorithms are used to detect attacks on the UNSW-NB15 benchmark dataset. The UNSW-NB15 contains normal network traffic and malicious traffic instants. The experimental results reveal that RF and KNN classifiers give the best performance with an accuracy of 100% (without noise injection) and 99% (with 10% noise filtering), while the Naïve Bayes classifier gives the worst performance with an accuracy of 95.35% and 82.77 without noise and with 10% noise, respectively. Other evaluation matrices, such as precision and recall, also show the effectiveness of RF and KNN classifiers over Naïve Bayes.

Abstract Suicide is a major health issue nowadays and has become one of the highest reason for deaths. There are many negative emotions like anxiety, depression, stress that can lead to suicide. By identifying the individuals having suicidal ideation beforehand, the risk of them completing suicide can be reduced. Social media is increasingly becoming a powerful platform where people around the world are sharing emotions and thoughts. Moreover, this platform in some way is working as a catalyst for invoking and inciting the suicidal ideation. The objective of this proposal is to use social media as a tool that can aid in preventing the same. Data is collected from Twitter, a social networking site using some features that are related to suicidal ideation. The tweets are preprocessed as per the semantics of the identified features and then it is converted into probabilistic values so that it will be suitably used by machine learning and ensemble learning algorithms. Different machine learning algorithms like Bernoulli Naïve Bayes, Multinomial Naïve Bayes, Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine were applied on the data to predict and identify trends of suicidal ideation. Further the proposed work is evaluated with some ensemble approaches like Random Forest, AdaBoost, Voting Ensemble to see the improvement.
