The objective of this study is to show the applicability of machine learning and simulative approaches to the development of decision support systems for railway asset management. These techniques are applied within the generic framework developed and tested within the In2Smart project. The framework is composed by different building blocks, in order to show the complete process from data collection and knowledge extraction to the real-world decisions. The application of the framework to two different real-world case studies is described: the first case study deals with strategic earthworks asset management, while the second case study considers the tactical and operational planning of track circuits’ maintenance. Although different methodologies are applied and different planning levels are considered, both the case studies follow the same general framework, demonstrating the generality of the approach. The potentiality of combining machine learning techniques with simulative approaches to replicate real processes is shown, evaluating the key performance indicators employed within the considered asset management process. Finally, the results of the validation are reported as well as the developed human–machine interfaces for output visualization.

The use of recent innovations provides unimaginable blessings to individuals, organizations, and governments, be that because it might, messes some up against them. for example, the protection of serious information, security of place away data stages, accessibility of knowledge so forth. Digital concern, that created an excellent deal of problems individuals and institutions, has received A level that might undermine open and nation security by totally different gatherings, as an example, criminal association, good individuals and digital activists. the foremost common risk to a network’s security is an intrusion like brute force, denial of service or maybe an infiltration from inside a network. this can be wherever machine learning comes into play. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) has been created to take care of a strategic distance from digital assaults.

Precisely assessing the severity of persons with COVID-19 at an early stage is an effective way to increase the survival rate of patients. Based on the initial screening, to identify and triage the people at highest risk of complications that can result in mortality risk in patients is a challenging problem, especially in developing nations around the world. This problem is further aggravated due to the shortage of specialists. Using machine learning (ML) techniques to predict the severity of persons with COVID-19 in the initial screening process can be an effective method which would enable patients to be sorted and treated and accordingly receive appropriate clinical management with optimum use of medical facilities. In this study, we applied and evaluated the effectiveness of three types of Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Support Vector Machine and Random forest regression using a variety of learning methods, for early prediction of severity using patient history and laboratory findings. The performance of different machine learning techniques to predict severity with clinical features shows that it can be successfully applied to precisely and quickly assess the severity of the patient and the risk of death by using patient history and laboratory findings that can be an effective method for patients to be triaged and treated accordingly.

&lt;p&gt;Modelling of rainfall-runoff phenomenon continues to be a challenging task at hand of hydrologists as the underlying processes are highly nonlinear, dynamic and interdependent. Numerous modelling strategies like empirical, conceptual, physically based, data driven, are used to develop rainfall-runoff models as no model type can be considered to be universally pertinent for a wide range of problems. Latest literature review emphasizes that the crucial step of hydrological model selection is often subjective and is based on legacy. As the research outcome depends on model choice, there is a necessity to automate the process of model evolution, evaluation and selection based on research objectives, temporal and spatial characteristics of available data and catchment properties. Therefore, this study proposes a novel automated model building algorithm relying on machine learning technique Genetic Programming (GP).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;State of art GP applications in rainfall-runoff modelling as yet used the algorithm as a short-term forecasting tool which produces an expected future time series very much alike to neural networks application. Such simplistic applications of data driven black-box machine learning techniques may lead to development of accurate yet meaningless models which do not satisfy basic hydrological insights and may have severe difficulties with interpretation. Concurrently, it should be admitted that there is a vast amount of knowledge and understanding of physical processes that should not just be thrown away. Thus, we strongly believe that the most suitable way forward is to couple the already existing body of knowledge with machine learning techniques in a guided manner to enhance the meaningfulness and interpretability of the induced models.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this suggested algorithm the domain knowledge is introduced through the incorporation of process knowledge by adding model building blocks from prevailing rainfall-runoff modelling frameworks into the GP function set. Presently, the function set library consists with Sugawara TANK model functions, generic components of two flexible rainfall-runoff modelling frameworks (FUSE and SUPERFLEX) and model equations of 46 existing hydrological models (MARRMoT). Nevertheless, perhaps more importantly, the algorithm is readily integratable with any other internal coherence building blocks. This approach contrasts from rest of machine learning applications in rainfall-runoff modelling as it not only produces the runoff predictions but develops a physically meaningful hydrological model which helps the hydrologist to better understand the catchment dynamics. The proposed algorithm considers the model space and automatically identifies the appropriate model configurations for a catchment of interest by optimizing user-defined learning objectives in a multi-objective optimization framework. The model induction capabilities of the proposed algorithm have been evaluated on the Blackwater River basin, Alabama, United States. The model configurations evolved through the model-building algorithm are compatible with the fieldwork investigations and previously reported research findings.&lt;/p&gt;

In this paper, we investigate analysis and prediction of the time-dependent data. We focus our attention on four different stocks are selected from Yahoo Finance historical database. To build up models and predict the future stock price, we consider three different machine learning techniques including Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Support Vector Regression (SVR). By treating close price, open price, daily low, daily high, adjusted close price, and volume of trades as predictors in machine learning methods, it can be shown that the prediction accuracy is improved.

Accurate diagnostic detection of the disease in a patient is critical and may alter the subsequent treatment and increase the chances of survival rate. Machine learning techniques have been instrumental in disease detection and are currently being used in various classification problems due to their accurate prediction performance. Various techniques may provide different desired accuracies and it is therefore imperative to use the most suitable method which provides the best desired results. This research seeks to provide comparative analysis of Support Vector Machine, Naïve bayes, J48 Decision Tree and neural network classifiers breast cancer and diabetes datsets.
