Landslide Susceptibility Maps

The main purpose of the present study is to apply three classification models, namely, the index of entropy (IOE) model, the logistic regression (LR) model, and the support vector machine (SVM) model by radial basis function (RBF), to produce landslide susceptibility maps for the Fugu County of Shaanxi Province, China. Firstly, landslide locations were extracted from field investigation and aerial photographs, and a total of 194 landslide polygons were transformed into points to produce a landslide inventory map. Secondly, the landslide points were randomly split into two groups (70/30) for training and validation purposes, respectively. Then, 10 landslide explanatory variables, such as slope aspect, slope angle, altitude, lithology, mean annual precipitation, distance to roads, distance to rivers, distance to faults, land use, and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), were selected and the potential multicollinearity problems between these factors were detected by the Pearson Correlation Coefficient (PCC), the variance inflation factor (VIF), and tolerance (TOL). Subsequently, the landslide susceptibility maps for the study region were obtained using the IOE model, the LR–IOE, and the SVM–IOE model. Finally, the performance of these three models was verified and compared using the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. The success rate results showed that the LR–IOE model has the highest accuracy (90.11%), followed by the IOE model (87.43%) and the SVM–IOE model (86.53%). Similarly, the AUC values also showed that the prediction accuracy expresses a similar result, with the LR–IOE model having the highest accuracy (81.84%), followed by the IOE model (76.86%) and the SVM–IOE model (76.61%). Thus, the landslide susceptibility map (LSM) for the study region can provide an effective reference for the Fugu County government to properly address land planning and mitigate landslide risk.

Breast Cancer Dataset

Worldwide, breast cancer is the leading type of cancer in women accounting for 25% of all cases. Survival rates in the developed countries are comparatively higher with that of developing countries. This had led to the importance of computer aided diagnostic methods for early detection of breast cancer disease. This eventually reduces the death rate. This paper intents the scope of the biomarker that can be used to predict the breast cancer from the anthropometric data. This experimental study aims at computing and comparing various classification models (Binary Logistic Regression, Ball Vector Machine (BVM), C4.5, Partial Least Square (PLS) for Classification, Classification Tree, Cost sensitive Classification Tree, Cost sensitive Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine for Classification, Core Vector Machine, ID3, K-Nearest Neighbor, Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Log-Reg TRIRLS, Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP), Multinomial Logistic Regression (MLR), Naïve Bayes (NB), PLS for Discriminant Analysis, PLS for LDA, Random Tree (RT), Support Vector Machine SVM) for the UCI Coimbra breast cancer dataset. The feature selection algorithms (Backward Logit, Fisher Filtering, Forward Logit, ReleifF, Step disc) are worked out to find out the minimum attributes that can achieve a better accuracy. To ascertain the accuracy results, the Jack-knife cross validation method for the algorithms is conducted and validated. The Core vector machine classification algorithm outperforms the other nineteen algorithms with an accuracy of 82.76%, sensitivity of 76.92% and specificity of 87.50% for the selected three attributes, Age, Glucose and Resistin using ReleifF feature selection algorithm.

Innovative Techniques

Human emotion recognition is critical to people managing their stress and emotions. Although many innovative techniques have been proposed to recognize human emotions, it is still challenging to understand the emotions due to individual differences in the diversity of emotions. This article focuses on analyzing the emotions computationally. In detail, a wavelet transform technique is utilized to extract significant features and find patterns in an emotion dataset. With the extracted features, both classification and visual analysis are performed. For the classification, Logistic Regression, C4.5, and Support Vector Machine are used. Visualization approaches are also utilized to represent similarities and differences among the emotion patterns. From the analysis, the authors found that the proposed method shows an improvement in identifying the differences among the emotions.

Bayesian Logistic Regression

This paper aims to apply and compare the performance of the three machine learning algorithms–support vector machine (SVM), bayesian logistic regression (BLR), and alternating decision tree (ADTree)–to map landslide susceptibility along the mountainous road of the Salavat Abad saddle, Kurdistan province, Iran. We identified 66 shallow landslide locations, based on field surveys, by recording the locations of the landslides by a global position System (GPS), Google Earth imagery and black-and-white aerial photographs (scale 1: 20,000) and 19 landslide conditioning factors, then tested these factors using the information gain ratio (IGR) technique. We checked the validity of the models using statistical metrics, including sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, kappa, root mean square error (RMSE), and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). We found that, although all three machine learning algorithms yielded excellent performance, the SVM algorithm (AUC = 0.984) slightly outperformed the BLR (AUC = 0.980), and ADTree (AUC = 0.977) algorithms. We observed that not only all three algorithms are useful and effective tools for identifying shallow landslide-prone areas but also the BLR algorithm can be used such as the SVM algorithm as a soft computing benchmark algorithm to check the performance of the models in future.
