Abstract Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is spreading across the world. Since at first it has appeared in Wuhan, China in December 2019, it has become a serious issue across the globe. There are no accurate resources to predict and find the disease. So, by knowing the past patients’ records, it could guide the clinicians to fight against the pandemic. Therefore, for the prediction of healthiness from symptoms Machine learning techniques can be implemented. From this we are going to analyse only the symptoms which occurs in every patient. These predictions can help clinicians in the easier manner to cure the patients. Already for prediction of many of the diseases, techniques like SVM (Support vector Machine), Fuzzy k-Means Clustering, Decision Tree algorithm, Random Forest Method, ANN (Artificial Neural Network), KNN (k-Nearest Neighbour), Naïve Bayes, Linear Regression model are used. As we haven’t faced this disease before, we can’t say which technique will give the maximum accuracy. So, we are going to provide an efficient result by comparing all the such algorithms in RStudio.

AbstractSARS-Cov-2 (Covid-19) has spread rapidly throughout the world, and especially in tropical countries already affected by outbreaks of arboviruses, such as Dengue, Zika and Chikungunya, and may lead these locations to a collapse of health systems. Thus, the present work aims to develop a methodology using a machine learning algorithm (Support Vector Machine) for the prediction and discrimination of patients affected by Covid-19 and arboviruses (DENV, ZIKV and CHIKV). Clinical data from 204 patients with both Covid-19 and arboviruses obtained from 23 scientific articles and 1 dataset were used. The developed model was able to predict 93.1% of Covid-19 cases and 82.1% of arbovirus cases, with an accuracy of 89.1% and Area under Roc Curve of 95.6%, proving to be effective in prediction and possible screening of these patients, especially those affected by Covid-19, allowing early isolation.


Deriving the methodologies to detect heart issues at an earlier stage and intimating the patient to improve their health. To resolve this problem, we will use Machine Learning techniques to predict the incidence at an earlier stage. We have a tendency to use sure parameters like age, sex, height, weight, case history, smoking and alcohol consumption and test like pressure ,cholesterol, diabetes, ECG, ECHO for prediction. In machine learning there are many algorithms which will be used to solve this issue. The algorithms include K-Nearest Neighbour, Support vector classifier, decision tree classifier, logistic regression and Random Forest classifier. Using these parameters and algorithms we need to predict whether or not the patient has heart disease or not and recommend the patient to improve his/her health.

Botanists study in general the characteristics of leaves to give to each plant a scientific name; such as shape, margin...etc. This paper proposes a comparison of supervised plant identification using different approaches. The identification is done according to three different features extracted from images of leaves: a fine-scale margin feature histogram, a Centroid Contour Distance Curve shape signature and an interior texture feature histogram. First represent each leaf by one feature at a time in, then represent leaves by two features, and each leaf was represented by the three features. After that, the authors classified the obtained vectors using different supervised machine learning techniques; the used techniques are Decision tree, Naïve Bayes, K-nearest neighbour, and neural network. Finally, they evaluated the classification using cross validation. The main goal of this work is studying the influence of representation of leaves' images on the identification of plants, and also studying the use of supervised machine learning algorithm for plant leaves classification.

AbstractBackgroundMachine learning (ML) is the application of specialized algorithms to datasets for trend delineation, categorization or prediction. ML techniques have been traditionally applied to large, highly-dimensional databases. Gliomas are a heterogeneous group of primary brain tumors, traditionally graded using histopathological features. Recently the World Health Organization proposed a novel grading system for gliomas incorporating molecular characteristics. We aimed to study whether ML could achieve accurate prognostication of 2-year mortality in a small, highly-dimensional database of glioma patients.MethodsWe applied three machine learning techniques: artificial neural networks (ANN), decision trees (DT), support vector machine (SVM), and classical logistic regression (LR) to a dataset consisting of 76 glioma patients of all grades. We compared the effect of applying the algorithms to the raw database, versus a database where only statistically significant features were included into the algorithmic inputs (feature selection).ResultsRaw input consisted of 21 variables, and achieved performance of (accuracy/AUC): 70.7%/0.70 for ANN, 68%/0.72 for SVM, 66.7%/0.64 for LR and 65%/0.70 for DT. Feature selected input consisted of 14 variables and achieved performance of 73.4%/0.75 for ANN, 73.3%/0.74 for SVM, 69.3%/0.73 for LR and 65.2%/0.63 for DT.ConclusionsWe demonstrate that these techniques can also be applied to small, yet highly-dimensional datasets. Our ML techniques achieved reasonable performance compared to similar studies in the literature. Though local databases may be small versus larger cancer repositories, we demonstrate that ML techniques can still be applied to their analysis, though traditional statistical methods are of similar benefit.


The major source of living for the people of India is agriculture. It is considered as important economy for the country. India is one of the country that suffer from natural calamities like drought and flood that may destroy the crops which may lead to heavy loss for the people doing agriculture. Predicting the crop type can help them to cultivate the suitable crop that can be cultivated in that particular soil type. Soil is one major factor or agriculture. There are several types of soil available in our county. In order to classify the soil type we need to understand the characteristics of the soil. Data mining and machine learning is one of the emerging technology in the field of agriculture and horticulture. In order to classify the soil type and Provide suggestion of fertilizers that can improve the growth of the crop cultivated in that particular soil type plays major role in agriculture. For that here exploring Several machine learning algorithms such as Support vector machine(SVM),k-Nearest Neighbour(k-NN) and logistic regression are used to classify the soil type.

The present work aims to identify the predictors of COVID-19 in-hospital mortality testing a set of Machine Learning Techniques (MLTs), comparing their ability to predict the outcome of interest. The model with the best performance will be used to identify in-hospital mortality predictors and to build an in-hospital mortality prediction tool. The study involved patients with COVID-19, proved by PCR test, admitted to the “Ospedali Riuniti Padova Sud” COVID-19 referral center in the Veneto region, Italy. The algorithms considered were the Recursive Partition Tree (RPART), the Support Vector Machine (SVM), the Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM), and Random Forest. The resampled performances were reported for each MLT, considering the sensitivity, specificity, and the Receiving Operative Characteristic (ROC) curve measures. The study enrolled 341 patients. The median age was 74 years, and the male gender was the most prevalent. The Random Forest algorithm outperformed the other MLTs in predicting in-hospital mortality, with a ROC of 0.84 (95% C.I. 0.78–0.9). Age, together with vital signs (oxygen saturation and the quick SOFA) and lab parameters (creatinine, AST, lymphocytes, platelets, and hemoglobin), were found to be the strongest predictors of in-hospital mortality. The present work provides insights for the prediction of in-hospital mortality of COVID-19 patients using a machine-learning algorithm.

The archeological sites are a heritage that we have gained from our ancestors. These sites are crucial for understanding the past and the way of life of people during those times. The monuments and the immovable relics of ancient times are a getaway to the past. The critical cultural relics however actually over the years have faced the brunt of nature. The environmental conditions have deteriorated the condition of many important immovable relics over the years since these could not be just shifted away. People also move around the ancient cultural relics that may also deform these relics. The machine learning algorithms were used to identify the location of the relics. The data from the satellite images were used and implemented machine learning algorithm to maintain and monitor the relics. This research study dwells into the importance of the area from a research point of view and utilizes machine learning techniques called CaffeNet and deep convolutional neural network. The result showed that 96% accuracy of predicting the image, which can be used for tracking human activity, protects heritage sites in a unique way.

Due to the rise in the use of messaging and mailing services, spam detection tasks are of much greater importance than before. In such a set of communications, efficient classification is a comparatively onerous job. For an addressee or any email that the user does not want to have in his inbox, spam can be defined as redundant or trash email. After pre-processing and feature extraction, various machine learning algorithms were applied to a Spam base dataset from the UCI Machine Learning repository in order to classify incoming emails into two categories: spam and non-spam. The outcomes of various algorithms have been compared. This paper used random forest, naive bayes, support vector machine (SVM), logistic regression, and the k nearest (KNN) machine learning algorithm to successfully classify email spam messages. The main goal of this study is to improve the prediction accuracy of spam email filters.
