Every higher education institute aims to provide the best career opportunities for their students as part of the outcome based education system. In India, campus placements for students while pursuing their 4th year of engineering is a predominant factor since the reputation of any institute largely depends on reputed recruiting companies visiting campus and the number of placement offers being given to eligible students. Hence, campuses offer personality development training to their students just before the commencement of the placement season while students try to maintain a minimum CGPA which would ensure their eligibility to apply for companies of their choice. The purpose of this paper is to predict a student’s chances of obtaining a pre-placement offer while still in campus on the basis of various academic and non-academic factors. The dataset used for the prediction analysis consists of student related aspects such as their university seat numbers, academic grades and personality training parameters. The training models have been designed using the WEKA tool and in addition to supervised machine learning classification algorithms, Chi-squared tests has been implemented on the dataset to only obtain those attributes that might be the highest requirement for campus placements of students.

Abstract Supervised machine learning techniques have proven to be effective tools for engineering design exploration and optimization applications, in which they are especially useful for mapping promising or feasible regions of the design space. The design space mappings can be used to inform early-stage design exploration, provide reliability assessments, and aid convergence in multiobjective or multilevel problems that require collaborative design teams. However, the accuracy of the mappings can vary based on problem factors such as the number of design variables, presence of discrete variables, multimodality of the underlying response function, and amount of training data available. Additionally, there are several useful machine learning algorithms available, and each has its own set of algorithmic hyperparameters that significantly affect accuracy and computational expense. This work elucidates the use of machine learning for engineering design exploration and optimization problems by investigating the performance of popular classification algorithms on a variety of example engineering optimization problems. The results are synthesized into a set of observations to provide engineers with intuition for applying these techniques to their own problems in the future, as well as recommendations based on problem type to aid engineers in algorithm selection and utilization.

Early identification of degenerative processes in the human brain is considered essential for providing proper care and treatment. This may involve detecting structural and functional cerebral changes such as changes in the degree of asymmetry between the left and right hemispheres. Changes can be detected by computational algorithms and used for the early diagnosis of dementia and its stages (amnestic early mild cognitive impairment (EMCI), Alzheimer’s Disease (AD)), and can help to monitor the progress of the disease. In this vein, the paper proposes a data processing pipeline that can be implemented on commodity hardware. It uses features of brain asymmetries, extracted from MRI of the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database, for the analysis of structural changes, and machine learning classification of the pathology. The experiments provide promising results, distinguishing between subjects with normal cognition (NC) and patients with early or progressive dementia. Supervised machine learning algorithms and convolutional neural networks tested are reaching an accuracy of 92.5% and 75.0% for NC vs. EMCI, and 93.0% and 90.5% for NC vs. AD, respectively. The proposed pipeline offers a promising low-cost alternative for the classification of dementia and can be potentially useful to other brain degenerative disorders that are accompanied by changes in the brain asymmetries.

Abstract This paper addresses electric motor fault diagnosis using supervised machine learning classification. A total of 15 distinct fault types are classified and multilabel strategies are used to classify concurrent faults. we explored, developed, and compared the performance of different types of binary (fault/non-fault), multi-class (fault type) and multi-label (single fault versus combination fault) classifiers. To evaluate the effectiveness of fault identification and classification, we used different supervised machine learning methods, including Random forest classification, support vector machine and neural network classification. Through experiment, we compared these methods over 4 classification regimes and finally summarize the most suitable machine learning algorithms for different aspects of health diagnosis in traction motors area.

Abstract. Time series of soil moisture were measured at 30 points for 396 rainfall events on a steep, forested hillslope between 2007 and 2016. We then analyzed the dataset using an unsupervised machine learning algorithm to cluster the hydrologic events based on the dissimilarity distances between weighting components of a self-organizing map (SOM). Generation patterns of two primary hillslope hydrological processes, namely, vertical flow and lateral flow, at the upslope and downslope areas were responsible for the distinction of the hydrologic events. Two-dimensional spatial weighting patterns in the SOM provided explanations for the relationships between rainfall characteristics and hydrological processes at different locations and depths. High reliability in hydrologic classification was achieved for both the driest and wettest events; as assessed through k-fold cross validation using 10 years of data. Representative soil moisture monitoring points were found through temporal stability analysis of the event structure delineated from the machine learning classification. Application of a supervised machine learning algorithm provided a scheme using soil moisture for the cluster identification of hydrologic event even without rainfall data which is useful to configure hillslope hydrologic process with the least cost in data acquisition.

This article builds on previous research around the exploration of the content of church-related tweets. It does so by exploring whether the qualitative thematic coding of such tweets can, in part, be automated by the use of machine learning. It compares three supervised machine learning algorithms to understand how useful each algorithm is at a classification task, based on a dataset of human-coded church-related tweets. The study finds that one such algorithm, Naïve-Bayes, performs better than the other algorithms considered, returning Precision, Recall and F-measure values which each exceed an acceptable threshold of 70%. This has far-reaching consequences at a time where the high volume of social media data, in this case, Twitter data, means that the resource-intensity of manual coding approaches can act as a barrier to understanding how the online community interacts with, and talks about, church. The findings presented in this article offer a way forward for scholars of digital theology to better understand the content of online church discourse.

Background: Antinuclear antibody pattern recognition is vital for autoimmune disease diagnosis but labor-intensive for manual interpretation. To develop an automated pattern recognition system, we established machine learning models based on the International Consensus on Antinuclear Antibody Patterns (ICAP) at a competent level, mixed patterns recognition, and evaluated their consistency with human reading. Methods: 51,694 human epithelial cells (HEp-2) cell images with patterns assigned by experienced medical technologists collected in a medical center were used to train six machine learning algorithms and were compared by their performance. Next, we choose the best performing model to test the consistency with five experienced readers and two beginners. Results: The mean F1 score in each classification of the best performing model was 0.86 evaluated by Testing Data 1. For the inter-observer agreement test on Testing Data 2, the average agreement was 0.849 (?) among five experienced readers, 0.844 between the best performing model and experienced readers, 0.528 between experienced readers and beginners. The results indicate that the proposed model outperformed beginners and achieved an excellent agreement with experienced readers. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that the developed model could reach an excellent agreement with experienced human readers using machine learning methods.
