Maps services are ubiquitous in widely used applications including navigation systems, ride sharing, and items/food delivery. Though there are plenty of efforts to support such services through designing more efficient algorithms, we believe that efficiency is no longer a bottleneck to these services. Instead, it is the accuracy of the underlying road network and query result. This paper presents QARTA; an open-source full-fledged system for highly accurate and scalable map services. QARTA employs machine learning techniques to construct its own highly accurate map, not only in terms of map topology but more importantly, in terms of edge weights. QARTA also employs machine learning techniques to calibrate its query answers based on contextual information, including transportation modality, location, and time of day/week. QARTA is currently deployed in all Taxis and the third largest food delivery company in the State of Qatar, replacing the commercial map service that was in use, and responding in real-time to hundreds of thousands of daily API calls. Experimental evaluation of QARTA shows its comparable or higher accuracy than commercial services.

Quora, an online question-answering platform has a lot of duplicate questions i.e. questions that convey the same meaning. Since it is open to all users, anyone can pose a question any number of times this increases the count of duplicate questions. This paper uses a dataset comprising of question pairs (taken from the Quora website) in different columns with an indication of whether the pair of questions are duplicates or not. Traditional comparison methods like Sequence matcher perform a letter by letter comparison without understanding the contextual information, hence they give lower accuracy. Machine learning methods predict the similarity using features extracted from the context. Both the traditional methods as well as the machine learning methods were compared in this study. The features for the machine learning methods are extracted using the Bag of Words models- Count-Vectorizer and TFIDF-Vectorizer. Among the traditional comparison methods, Sequence matcher gave the highest accuracy of 65.29%. Among the machine learning methods XGBoost gave the highest accuracy, 80.89% when Count-Vectorizer is used and 80.12% when TFIDF-Vectorizer is used.

A methodology to support and automate the prediction of maintenance intervention alerts in transport linear-asset infrastructures can greatly aid maintenance planning and management. This paper proposes a methodology combining the current and predicted conditions of the assets, and unit components of the infrastructure, with operational and historical maintenance data, to derive information about maintenance interventions needed to avoid later severe degradation. By means of data analytics and machine learning techniques, the proposed methodology generates a prioritized listing, ranked on severity levels, corresponding to the pre-alerts and alerts generated for all assets of the transport infrastructure. The methodology is applied and tested in a real case consisting of a road network with different section classes. The analysis of the results shows that the algorithms and tools developed have good predicting capabilities.

In this paper, we investigate analysis and prediction of the time-dependent data. We focus our attention on four different stocks are selected from Yahoo Finance historical database. To build up models and predict the future stock price, we consider three different machine learning techniques including Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Support Vector Regression (SVR). By treating close price, open price, daily low, daily high, adjusted close price, and volume of trades as predictors in machine learning methods, it can be shown that the prediction accuracy is improved.

Accurate diagnostic detection of the disease in a patient is critical and may alter the subsequent treatment and increase the chances of survival rate. Machine learning techniques have been instrumental in disease detection and are currently being used in various classification problems due to their accurate prediction performance. Various techniques may provide different desired accuracies and it is therefore imperative to use the most suitable method which provides the best desired results. This research seeks to provide comparative analysis of Support Vector Machine, Naïve bayes, J48 Decision Tree and neural network classifiers breast cancer and diabetes datsets.
