Abstract BackgroundEmployee health is an essential issue for Human Resource Management (HRM). The employees' health level is undeniably correlated to the job position in which they work since it may harm their well-being, and they may not be capable of performing their duties properly. Prompt diagnosis and resolution of employees' physical complications are highly critical.MethodsMachine learning (ML) is the state-of-the-art method potentially utilized to make early predictions to safeguard employees' healthiness. The technical laborers within the food manufacturing company are included in this Research. The functional classification models, namely, Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Logistic Regression (LR), Decision Tree, are exploited to predict the employees' wellness for their vocation. K-fold Cross-Validation (KCV) and Confusion Matrix were applied in this study, the former for estimating the model's functionality and the latter for forecasting accuracy.ResultsAfter implementing four models on the 231 employees, the accuracy was extracted out, SVM with 78%, KNN with 78%, Decision Tree with 80%, and the highest for LR algorithm with 84%.ConclusionsIn this Research, the LR algorithm was opted to paving the way for Human Resources Managers in order to utilize a functional system to predict the Suitability of factory workers concerning their healthiness. The Hearing condition was picked out as a leading factor in selecting employees for their job position. Consequently, it is significant to planning a hearing conservation program for employees, especially those exposed to excessive noise.Trial Registration: Retrospectively registered.

Abstract Well integrity has become a crucial field with increased focus and being published intensively in industry researches. It is important to maintain the integrity of the individual well to ensure that wells operate as expected for their designated life (or higher) with all risks kept as low as reasonably practicable, or as specified. Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) models are used intensively in oil and gas industry nowadays. ML concept is based on powerful algorithms and robust database. Developing an efficient classification model for well integrity (WI) anomalies is now feasible because of having enormous number of well failures and well barrier integrity tests, and analyses in the database. Circa 9000 dataset points were collected from WI tests performed for 800 wells in Gulf of Suez, Egypt for almost 10 years. Moreover, those data have been quality-controlled and quality-assured by experienced engineers. The data contain different forms of WI failures. The contributing parameter set includes a total of 23 barrier elements. Data were structured and fed into 11 different ML algorithms to build an automated systematic tool for calculating imposed risk category of any well. Comparison analysis for the deployed models was performed to infer the best predictive model that can be relied on. 11 models include both supervised and ensemble learning algorithms such as random forest, support vector machine (SVM), decision tree and scalable boosting techniques. Out of 11 models, the results showed that extreme gradient boosting (XGB), categorical boosting (CatBoost), and decision tree are the most reliable algorithms. Moreover, novel evaluation metrics for confusion matrix of each model have been introduced to overcome the problem of existing metrics which don't consider domain knowledge during model evaluation. The innovated model will help to utilize company resources efficiently and dedicate personnel efforts to wells with the high-risk. As a result, progressive improvements on business, safety, environment, and performance of the business. This paper would be a milestone in the design and creation of the Well Integrity Database Management Program through the combination of integrity and ML.

The detection of emotions is fundamental in many areas related to health and well-being. This paper presents the identification of the level of arousal in older people by monitoring their electrodermal activity (EDA) through a commercial device. The objective was to recognize arousal changes to create future therapies that help them to improve their mood, contributing to reduce possible situations of depression and anxiety. To this end, some elderly people in the region of Murcia were exposed to listening to various musical genres (flamenco, Spanish folklore, Cuban genre and rock/jazz) that they heard in their youth. Using methods based on the process of deconvolution of the EDA signal, two different studies were carried out. The first, of a purely statistical nature, was based on the search for statistically significant differences for a series of temporal, morphological, statistical and frequency features of the processed signals. It was found that Flamenco and Spanish Folklore presented the highest number of statistically significant parameters. In the second study, a wide range of classifiers was used to analyze the possible correlations between the detection of the EDA-based arousal level compared to the participants’ responses to the level of arousal subjectively felt. In this case, it was obtained that the best classifiers are support vector machines, with 87% accuracy for flamenco and 83.1% for Spanish Folklore, followed by K-nearest neighbors with 81.4% and 81.5% for Flamenco and Spanish Folklore again. These results reinforce the notion of familiarity with a musical genre on emotional induction.

School dropout permeates various teaching modalities and has generated social, economic, political, and academic damage to those involved in the educational process. Evasion data in higher education courses show the pessimistic scenario of fragility that configures education, mainly in underdeveloped countries. In this context, this paper presents an Internet of Things (IoT) framework for predicting dropout using machine learning methods such as Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, K-nearest neighbors, Multilayer perceptron, and Deep Learning based on socioeconomic data. With the use of socioeconomic data, it is possible to identify in the act of pre-registration who are the students likely to evade, since this information is filled in the pre-registration form. This paper proposes the automation of the prediction process by a method capable of obtaining information that would be difficult and time consuming for humans to obtain, contributing to a more accurate prediction. With the advent of IoT, it is possible to create a highly efficient and flexible tool for improving management and service-related issues, which can provide a prediction of dropout of new students entering higher-level courses, allowing personalized follow-up to students to reverse a possible dropout. The approach was validated by analyzing the accuracy, F1 score, recall, and precision parameters. The results showed that the developed system obtained 99.34% accuracy, 99.34% F1 score, 100% recall, and 98.69% precision using Decision Tree. Thus, the developed system presents itself as a viable option for use in universities to predict students likely to leave university.

Early diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) is critical to prevent its serious complications. An ensemble of classifiers is an effective way to enhance classification performance, which can be used to diagnose complex diseases, such as DM. This paper proposes an ensemble framework to diagnose DM by optimally employing multiple classifiers based on bagging and random subspace techniques. The proposed framework combines seven of the most suitable and heterogeneous data mining techniques, each with a separate set of suitable features. These techniques are k-nearest neighbors, naïve Bayes, decision tree, support vector machine, fuzzy decision tree, artificial neural network, and logistic regression. The framework is designed accurately by selecting, for every sub-dataset, the most suitable feature set and the most accurate classifier. It was evaluated using a real dataset collected from electronic health records of Mansura University Hospitals (Mansura, Egypt). The resulting framework achieved 90% of accuracy, 90.2% of recall = 90.2%, and 94.9% of precision. We evaluated and compared the proposed framework with many other classification algorithms. An analysis of the results indicated that the proposed ensemble framework significantly outperforms all other classifiers. It is a successful step towards constructing a personalized decision support system, which could help physicians in daily clinical practice.
