Casting aluminum alloys are commonly used in industries due to their excellent comprehensive performance. Alloying/microalloying and post-solidification heat treatments are the most common measures to tune the microstructure for enhancing their mechanical properties. However, it is very challenging to achieve accurate and efficient development of novel casting aluminum alloys using the traditional trial-and-error method. With the rapid development of computer technology, the computational thermodynamics (CT) in the framework of the CALculation of PHAse Diagram approach, the data-driven machine learning (ML) technique, and also their combinations have been proved to be effective approaches for the design of casting aluminum alloys. In this review, the state-of-the-art computational alloy design approaches driven by CT and ML techniques, as well as their combinations, were comprehensively summarized. The current status of the thermodynamic database for aluminum alloys, as the core for CT, was also briefly introduced. After that, a variety of successful case studies on the design of different casting aluminum alloys driven by CT, ML, and their combinations were demonstrated, including common applications, CT-driven design of Sc-additional Al-Si-Mg series casting alloys, and design of Srmodified A356 alloys driven by combing CT and ML. Finally, the conclusions of this review were drawn, and perspectives for boosting the computational design approach driven by combining CT and ML techniques were pointed out.

Although the incidence of central nervous system (CNS) cancers is not high, it significantly reduces a patient’s quality of life and results in high mortality rates. A low incidence also means a low number of cases, which in turn means a low amount of information. To compensate, researchers have tried to increase the amount of information available from a single test using high-throughput technologies. This approach, referred to as single-omics analysis, has only been partially successful as one type of data may not be able to appropriately describe all the characteristics of a tumor. It is presently unclear what type of data can describe a particular clinical situation. One way to solve this problem is to use multi-omics data. When using many types of data, a selected data type or a combination of them may effectively resolve a clinical question. Hence, we conducted a comprehensive survey of papers in the field of neuro-oncology that used multi-omics data for analysis and found that most of the papers utilized machine learning techniques. This fact shows that it is useful to utilize machine learning techniques in multi-omics analysis. In this review, we discuss the current status of multi-omics analysis in the field of neuro-oncology and the importance of using machine learning techniques.

Boosted by the growing logistics industry and digital transformation, the sharing warehouse market is undergoing a rapid development. Both supply and demand sides in the warehouse rental business are faced with market perturbations brought by unprecedented peer competitions and information transparency. A key question faced by the participants is how to price warehouses in the open market. To understand the pricing mechanism, we built a real world warehouse dataset using data collected from the classified advertisements websites. Based on the dataset, we applied machine learning techniques to relate warehouse price with its relevant features, such as warehouse size, location and nearby real estate price. Four candidate models are used here: Linear Regression, Regression Tree, Random Forest Regression and Gradient Boosting Regression Trees. The case study in the Beijing area shows that warehouse rent is closely related to its location and land price. Models considering multiple factors have better skill in estimating warehouse rent, compared to singlefactor estimation. Additionally, tree models have better performance than the linear model, with the best model (Random Forest) achieving correlation coefficient of 0.57 in the test set. Deeper investigation of feature importance illustrates that distance from the city center plays the most important role in determining warehouse price in Beijing, followed by nearby real estate price and warehouse size.

Personalized treatment (PT) is an emerging area in healthcare that provides personalized health. Personalized, targeted, or customized treatment gains more attention by providing the right treatment to the right person at the right time. Traditional treatment follows a whole systems approach, whereas PT unyokes the people into groups and helps them in rendering proper treatment based on disease risk. In PT, case by case analysis identifies the current status of each patient and performs detailed investigation of their health along with symptoms, signs, and difficulties. Case by case analysis also aids in constructing the clinical knowledge base according to the patient's needs. Thus, PT is a preventive medicine system enabling optimal therapy and cost-effective treatment. This chapter aims to explore how PT is served in works of literature by fusing machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, which creates cognitive machine learning (CML). This chapter also explores the issues, challenges of traditional medicine, applications, models, pros, and cons of PT.

The ever-rapid development of technology in today's world tends to provide us with a dramatic explosion of data, leading to its accumulation and thus data computation has amplified in comparison to the recent past. To manage such complex data, emerging new technologies are enabled specially to identify crime patterns, as crime-related data is escalating. These digital technologies have the potential to manipulate and also alter the pattern. To combat this, machine learning techniques are introduced which have the ability to analyse such voluminous data. In this work, the authors intend to understand and implement machine learning techniques in real time data analysis by means of Python. The detailed explanation in preparing the dataset, understanding, visualizing the data using pandas, and performance measure of algorithm is evaluated.

The nature of manufacturing systems faces increasingly complex dynamics to meet the demand for high quality products efficiently. One area, which experienced rapid development in terms not only of promising results but also of usability, is machine learning. New developments in certain domains such as mathematics, computer science, and the availability of easy-to-use tools, often freely available, offer great potential to transform the non-traditional machining domain and its understanding of the increase in manufacturing data. However, the field is very broad and even confusing, which presents a challenge and a barrier that hinders wide application. Here, this chapter helps to present an overview of the available machine learning techniques for improving the non-traditional machining process area. It provides a basis for the subsequent argument that the machine learning is a suitable tool for manufacturers to face these challenges head-on in non-traditional machining processes.

Machine learning has become an important research area in many domains and real-world applications. The prevailing assumption in traditional machine learning techniques, that training and testing data should be of the same domain, is a challenge. In the real world, gathering enough training data to create high-performance learning models is not easy. Sometimes data are not available, very expensive, or dangerous to collect. In this scenario, the concept of machine learning does not hold up to its potential. Transfer learning has recently gained much acclaim in the field of research as it has the capability to create high performance learners through virtual environments or by using data gathered from other domains. This systematic review defines (a) transfer learning; (b) discusses the recent research conducted; (c) the current status of transfer learning and finally, (d) discusses how transfer learning can bridge the gap between the virtual and the real.

The rapid development of e-commerce shopping marketplaces necessitates the use of recommendation engines and quick, precise, and efficient algorithms in order for the company's business models to generate a massive amount of profit. A computer vision software programme enables a computer to learn a great deal from digital images or movies. Machine learning methods are used in computer vision, and several machine learning techniques have been developed specifically for this purpose. Information retrieval is the process of extracting useful information from a dataset, and computer vision is the most commonly used tool for this purpose nowadays. This project consists of a series of modules that run sequentially to retrieve information from a marked area on a receipt. A receipt image is used as an input for the model, and the model first uses various image processing algorithms to clean the data, after which the pre-processed data is applied to machine learning algorithms to produce better results, and the result is a string of numerical digits including the decimal point. The program's accuracy is primarily determined by the image quality or pixel density, and it is necessary to ensure that an input receipt is not damaged and content is not blurred.

<div>Malware distribution to the victim network is commonly performed through file attachments in phishing email or downloading illegitimate files from the internet, when the victim interacts with the source of infection. To detect and prevent the malware distribution in the victim machine, the existing end device security applications may leverage sophisticated techniques such as signature-based or anomaly-based, machine learning techniques. The well-known file formats Portable Executable (PE) for Windows and Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) for Linux based operating system are used for malware analysis and the malware detection capabilities of these files has been well advanced for real time detection. But the malware payload hiding in multimedia like cover images using steganography detection has been a challenge for enterprises, as these are rarely seen and usually act as a stager in sophisticated attacks. In this article, to our knowledge, we are the first to try to address the knowledge gap between the current progress in image steganography and steganalysis academic research focusing on data hiding and the review of the stegomalware (malware payload hiding in images) targeting enterprises with cyberattacks current status. We present the stegomalware history, generation tools, file format specification description. Based on our findings, we perform the detail review of the image steganography techniques including the recent Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) based models and the image steganalysis methods including the Deep Learning opportunities and challenges in stegomalware generation and detection are presented based on our findings.</div>
