Purpose. Detecting toxic comments on YouTube video hosting under training videos by classifying unstructured text using a combination of machine learning methods. Methodology. To work with the specified type of data, machine learning methods were used for cleaning, normalizing, and presenting textual data in a form acceptable for processing on a computer. Directly to classify comments as “toxic”, we used a logistic regression classifier, a linear support vector classification method without and with a learning method – stochastic gradient descent, a random forest classifier and a gradient enhancement classifier. In order to assess the work of the classifiers, the methods of calculating the matrix of errors, accuracy, completeness and F-measure were used. For a more generalized assessment, a cross-validation method was used. Python programming language. Findings. Based on the assessment indicators, the most optimal methods were selected – support vector machine (Linear SVM), without and with the training method using stochastic gradient descent. The described technologies can be used to analyze the textual comments under any training videos to detect toxic reviews. Also, the approach can be useful for identifying unwanted or even aggressive information on social networks or services where reviews are provided. Originality. It consists in a combination of methods for preprocessing a specific type of text, taking into account such features as the possibility of having a timecode, emoji, links, and the like, as well as in the adaptation of classification methods of machine learning for the analysis of Russian-language comments. Practical value. It is about optimizing (simplification) the comment analysis process. The need for this processing is due to the growing volumes of text data, especially in the field of education through quarantine conditions and the transition to distance learning. The volume of educational Internet content already needs to automate the processing and analysis of feedback, over time this need will only grow.

Abstract Wildfires in limited extent and intensity can be a boon for the forest ecosystem. However, recent episodes of wildfires of 2019 in Australia and Brazil are sad reminders of their heavy ecological and economical costs. Understanding the role of environmental factors in the likelihood of wildfires in a spatial context would be instrumental in mitigating it. In this study, 14 environmental features encompassing meteorological, topographical, ecological, in situ and anthropogenic factors have been considered for preparing the wildfire likelihood map of Sikkim Himalaya. A comparative study on the efficiency of machine learning methods like Generalized Linear Model (GLM), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF) and Gradient Boosting Model (GBM) has been performed to identify the best performing algorithm in wildfire prediction. The study indicates that all the machine learning methods are good at predicting wildfires. However, RF has outperformed, followed by GBM in the prediction. Also, environmental features like average temperature, average wind speed, proximity to roadways and tree cover percentage are the most important determinants of wildfires in Sikkim Himalaya. This study can be considered as a decision support tool for preparedness, efficient resource allocation and sensitization of people towards mitigation of wildfires in Sikkim.

Landslide susceptibility mapping is a method used to assess the probability and spatial distribution of landslide occurrences. Machine learning methods have been widely used in landslide susceptibility in recent years. In this paper, six popular machine learning algorithms namely logistic regression, multi-layer perceptron, random forests, support vector machine, Adaboost, and gradient boosted decision tree were leveraged to construct landslide susceptibility models with a total of 1365 landslide points and 14 predisposing factors. Subsequently, the landslide susceptibility maps (LSM) were generated by the trained models. LSM shows the main landslide zone is concentrated in the southeastern area of Wenchuan County. The result of ROC curve analysis shows that all models fitted the training datasets and achieved satisfactory results on validation datasets. The results of this paper reveal that machine learning methods are feasible to build robust landslide susceptibility models.

The satisfaction of employees is very important for any organization to make sufficient progress in production and to achieve its goals. Organizations try to keep their employees satisfied by making their policies according to employees’ demands which help to create a good environment for the collective. For this reason, it is beneficial for organizations to perform staff satisfaction surveys to be analyzed, allowing them to gauge the levels of satisfaction among employees. Sentiment analysis is an approach that can assist in this regard as it categorizes sentiments of reviews into positive and negative results. In this study, we perform experiments for the world’s big six companies and classify their employees’ reviews based on their sentiments. For this, we proposed an approach using lexicon-based and machine learning based techniques. Firstly, we extracted the sentiments of employees from text reviews and labeled the dataset as positive and negative using TextBlob. Then we proposed a hybrid/voting model named Regression Vector-Stochastic Gradient Descent Classifier (RV-SGDC) for sentiment classification. RV-SGDC is a combination of logistic regression, support vector machines, and stochastic gradient descent. We combined these models under a majority voting criteria. We also used other machine learning models in the performance comparison of RV-SGDC. Further, three feature extraction techniques: term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF), bag of words, and global vectors are used to train learning models. We evaluated the performance of all models in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score. The results revealed that RV-SGDC outperforms with a 0.97 accuracy score using the TF-IDF feature due to its hybrid architecture.

The test study area is the Miocene reservoir of Nam Con Son Basin, offshore Vietnam. In the study we used unsupervised learning to automatically cluster hydraulic flow units (HU) based on flow zone indicators (FZI) in a core plug dataset. Then we applied supervised learning to predict HU by combining core and well log data. We tested several machine learning algorithms. In the first phase, we derived hydraulic flow unit clustering of porosity and permeability of core data using unsupervised machine learning methods such as Ward’s, K mean, Self-Organize Map (SOM) and Fuzzy C mean (FCM). Then we applied supervised machine learning methods including Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Support Vector Machines (SVM), Boosted Tree (BT) and Random Forest (RF). We combined both core and log data to predict HU logs for the full well section of the wells without core data. We used four wells with six logs (GR, DT, NPHI, LLD, LSS and RHOB) and 578 cores from the Miocene reservoir to train, validate and test the data. Our goal was to show that the correct combination of cores and well logs data would provide reservoir engineers with a tool for HU classification and estimation of permeability in a continuous geological profile. Our research showed that machine learning effectively boosts the prediction of permeability, reduces uncertainty in reservoir modeling, and improves project economics.

Summary Accurate coal identification is critical in coal seam gas (CSG) (also known as coalbed methane or CBM) developments because it determines well completion design and directly affects gas production. Density logging using radioactive source tools is the primary tool for coal identification, adding well trips to condition the hole and additional well costs for logging runs. In this paper, machine learning methods are applied to identify coals from drilling and logging-while-drilling (LWD) data to reduce overall well costs. Machine learning algorithms include logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), random forest (RF), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). The precision, recall, and F1 score are used as evaluation metrics. Because coal identification is an imbalanced data problem, the performance on the minority class (i.e., coals) is limited. To enhance the performance on coal prediction, two data manipulation techniques [naive random oversampling (NROS) technique and synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE)] are separately coupled with machine learning algorithms. Case studies are performed with data from six wells in the Surat Basin, Australia. For the first set of experiments (single-well experiments), both the training data and test data are in the same well. The machine learning methods can identify coal pay zones for sections with poor or missing logs. It is found that rate of penetration (ROP) is the most important feature. The second set of experiments (multiple-well experiments) uses the training data from multiple nearby wells, which can predict coal pay zones in a new well. The most important feature is gamma ray. After placing slotted casings, all wells have coal identification rates greater than 90%, and three wells have coal identification rates greater than 99%. This indicates that machine learning methods (either XGBoost or ANN/RF with NROS/SMOTE) can be an effective way to identify coal pay zones and reduce coring or logging costs in CSG developments.

<p>Machine learning methods are attracting considerable attention from the pharmaceutical industry for use in drug discovery and applications beyond. In recent studies we have applied multiple machine learning algorithms, modeling metrics and in some cases compared molecular descriptors to build models for individual targets or properties on a relatively small scale. Several research groups have used large numbers of datasets from public databases such as ChEMBL in order to evaluate machine learning methods of interest to them. The largest of these types of studies used on the order of 1400 datasets. We have now extracted well over 5000 datasets from CHEMBL for use with the ECFP6 fingerprint and comparison of our proprietary software Assay Central<sup>TM</sup> with random forest, k-Nearest Neighbors, support vector classification, naïve Bayesian, AdaBoosted decision trees, and deep neural networks (3 levels). Model performance <a>was</a> assessed using an array of five-fold cross-validation metrics including area-under-the-curve, F1 score, Cohen’s kappa and Matthews correlation coefficient. <a>Based on ranked normalized scores for the metrics or datasets all methods appeared comparable while the distance from the top indicated Assay Central<sup>TM</sup> and support vector classification were comparable. </a>Unlike prior studies which have placed considerable emphasis on deep neural networks (deep learning), no advantage was seen in this case where minimal tuning was performed of any of the methods. If anything, Assay Central<sup>TM</sup> may have been at a slight advantage as the activity cutoff for each of the over 5000 datasets representing over 570,000 unique compounds was based on Assay Central<sup>TM</sup>performance, but support vector classification seems to be a strong competitor. We also apply Assay Central<sup>TM</sup> to prospective predictions for PXR and hERG to further validate these models. This work currently appears to be the largest comparison of machine learning algorithms to date. Future studies will likely evaluate additional databases, descriptors and algorithms, as well as further refining methods for evaluating and comparing models. </p><p><b> </b></p>

Natural gas has been proposed as a solution to increase the security of energy supply and reduce environmental pollution around the world. Being able to forecast natural gas price benefits various stakeholders and has become a very valuable tool for all market participants in competitive natural gas markets. Machine learning algorithms have gradually become popular tools for natural gas price forecasting. In this paper, we investigate data-driven predictive models for natural gas price forecasting based on common machine learning tools, i.e., artificial neural networks (ANN), support vector machines (SVM), gradient boosting machines (GBM), and Gaussian process regression (GPR). We harness the method of cross-validation for model training and monthly Henry Hub natural gas spot price data from January 2001 to October 2018 for evaluation. Results show that these four machine learning methods have different performance in predicting natural gas prices. However, overall ANN reveals better prediction performance compared with SVM, GBM, and GPR.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are emerging and promising platforms for carrying different types of cameras for remote sensing. The application of multispectral vegetation indices for ground cover classification has been widely adopted and has proved its reliability. However, the fusion of spectral bands and vegetation indices for machine learning-based land surface investigation has hardly been studied. In this paper, we studied the fusion of spectral bands information from UAV multispectral images and derived vegetation indices for almond plantation classification using several machine learning methods. We acquired multispectral images over an almond plantation using a UAV. First, a multispectral orthoimage was generated from the acquired multispectral images using SfM (Structure from Motion) photogrammetry methods. Eleven types of vegetation indexes were proposed based on the multispectral orthoimage. Then, 593 data points that contained multispectral bands and vegetation indexes were randomly collected and prepared for this study. After comparing six machine learning algorithms (Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Linear Discrimination Analysis, Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Gradient Boosting), we selected three (SVM, KNN, and LDA) to study the fusion of multi-spectral bands information and derived vegetation index for classification. With the vegetation indexes increased, the model classification accuracy of all three selected machine learning methods gradually increased, then dropped. Our results revealed that that: (1) spectral information from multispectral images can be used for machine learning-based ground classification, and among all methods, SVM had the best performance; (2) combination of multispectral bands and vegetation indexes can improve the classification accuracy comparing to only spectral bands among all three selected methods; (3) among all VIs, NDEGE, NDVIG, and NDVGE had consistent performance in improving classification accuracies, and others may reduce the accuracy. Machine learning methods (SVM, KNN, and LDA) can be used for classifying almond plantation using multispectral orthoimages, and fusion of multispectral bands with vegetation indexes can improve machine learning-based classification accuracy if the vegetation indexes are properly selected.
