Human beings' health is affected by physical ventures and emotional states endured by regular activities, which frequently develop attitudes and substantially affect health outcomes. Human Emotions play a vital role in deciding perception, cognition, memory, attention, reasoning, and decision-making. Several approaches have been used for automatically recognizing users' sentiment through images, speech, text, video, and physiological signals. Truthful detection of human emotions and personality behaviours can be advantageous for many situations, like interviews, group discussions, polygraphs, depressed persons, paralytic patients, blind people, shooters, etc. So, there is a need for an emotion recognizer. Though researchers tried several methods for emotion recognition, the accuracy of detection is always a question. The main aim is to develop a precise classification model for better accuracy of the emotion recognition system. Therefore, an emotion detector using GSR (Grove – GSR Sensor V1.2) sensor is proposed in the current research work. Twenty pupil groups were subjected to under observation for six different human activities, viz., happy, relax, stress, pain, reading, and math calculation. This research work was carried out in the lab of machine vision (CEERI) Central Electronics Engineering Research Institute Pilani, Jhunjhunu India. Moving average window method was used for data pre-processing. Supervised machine learning models viz., k-nearest neighbours (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and decision tree (DT) was used for emotion classification. The decision tree model gives the best results with an average accuracy of 97.61%. Pain activity is most correctly recognized with greater than 99% accuracy.

A wide reach on cancer prediction and detection using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) by the application of artificial intelligence is highly appreciated in the current scenario of the medical field. Next generation sequences were extracted from NCBI (National Centre for Biotechnology Information) gene repository. Sequences of normal Homo sapiens (Class 1), BRCA1 (Class 2) and BRCA2 (Class 3) were extracted for Machine Learning (ML) purpose. The total volume of datasets extracted for the process were 1580 in number under four categories of 50, 100, 150 and 200 sequences. The breast cancer prediction process was carried out in three major steps such as feature extraction, machine learning classification and performance evaluation. The features were extracted with sequences as input. Ten features of DNA sequences such as ORF (Open Reading Frame) count, individual nucleobase average count of A, T, C, G, AT and GC-content, AT/GC composition, G-quadruplex occurrence, MR (Mutation Rate) were extracted from three types of sequences for the classification process. The sequence type was also included as a target variable to the feature set with values 0, 1 and 2 for classes 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Nine various supervised machine learning techniques like LR (Logistic Regression statistical model), LDA (Linear Discriminant analysis model), k-NN (k nearest neighbours’ algorithm), DT (Decision tree technique), NB (Naive Bayes classifier), SVM (Support-Vector Machine algorithm), RF (Random Forest learning algorithm), AdaBoost (AB) and Gradient Boosting (GB) were employed on four various categories of datasets. Of all supervised models, decision tree machine learning technique performed most with maximum accuracy in classification of 94.03%. Classification model performance was evaluated using precision, recall, F1-score and support values wherein F1-score was most similar to the classification accuracy.

Due to the rapid development of human–computer interaction, affective computing has attracted more and more attention in recent years. In emotion recognition, Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are easier to be recorded than other physiological experiments and are not easily camouflaged. Because of the high dimensional nature of EEG data and the diversity of human emotions, it is difficult to extract effective EEG features and recognize the emotion patterns. This paper proposes a multi-feature deep forest (MFDF) model to identify human emotions. The EEG signals are firstly divided into several EEG frequency bands and then extract the power spectral density (PSD) and differential entropy (DE) from each frequency band and the original signal as features. A five-class emotion model is used to mark five emotions, including neutral, angry, sad, happy, and pleasant. With either original features or dimension reduced features as input, the deep forest is constructed to classify the five emotions. These experiments are conducted on a public dataset for emotion analysis using physiological signals (DEAP). The experimental results are compared with traditional classifiers, including K Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The MFDF achieves the average recognition accuracy of 71.05%, which is 3.40%, 8.54%, and 19.53% higher than RF, KNN, and SVM, respectively. Besides, the accuracies with the input of features after dimension reduction and raw EEG signal are only 51.30 and 26.71%, respectively. The result of this study shows that the method can effectively contribute to EEG-based emotion classification tasks.


The first step in diagnosis of a breast cancer is the identification of the disease. Early detection of the breast cancer is significant to reduce the mortality rate due to breast cancer. Machine learning algorithms can be used in identification of the breast cancer. The supervised machine learning algorithms such as Support Vector Machine (SVM) and the Decision Tree are widely used in classification problems, such as the identification of breast cancer. In this study, a machine learning model is proposed by employing learning algorithms namely, the support vector machine and decision tree. The kaggle data repository consisting of 569 observations of malignant and benign observations is used to develop the proposed model. Finally, the model is evaluated using accuracy, confusion matrix precision and recall as metrics for evaluation of performance on the test set. The analysis result showed that, the support vector machine (SVM) has better accuracy and less number of misclassification rate and better precision than the decision tree algorithm. The average accuracy of the support vector machine (SVM) is 91.92 % and that of the decision tree classification model is 87.12 %.

In this research, we develop an affective computing method based on machine learning for emotion recognition using a wireless protocol and a wearable electroencephalography (EEG) custom-designed device. The system collects EEG signals using an eight-electrode placement on the scalp; two of these electrodes were placed in the frontal lobe, and the other six electrodes were placed in the temporal lobe. We performed experiments on eight subjects while they watched emotive videos. Six entropy measures were employed for extracting suitable features from the EEG signals. Next, we evaluated our proposed models using three popular classifiers: a support vector machine (SVM), multi-layer perceptron (MLP), and one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) for emotion classification; both subject-dependent and subject-independent strategies were used. Our experiment results showed that the highest average accuracies achieved in the subject-dependent and subject-independent cases were 85.81% and 78.52%, respectively; these accuracies were achieved using a combination of the sample entropy measure and 1D-CNN. Moreover, our study investigates the T8 position (above the right ear) in the temporal lobe as the most critical channel among the proposed measurement positions for emotion classification through electrode selection. Our results prove the feasibility and efficiency of our proposed EEG-based affective computing method for emotion recognition in real-world applications.

Emotion recognition, as a branch of affective computing, has attracted great attention in the last decades as it can enable more natural brain-computer interface systems. Electroencephalography (EEG) has proven to be an effective modality for emotion recognition, with which user affective states can be tracked and recorded, especially for primitive emotional events such as arousal and valence. Although brain signals have been shown to correlate with emotional states, the effectiveness of proposed models is somewhat limited. The challenge is improving accuracy, while appropriate extraction of valuable features might be a key to success. This study proposes a framework based on incorporating fractal dimension features and recursive feature elimination approach to enhance the accuracy of EEG-based emotion recognition. The fractal dimension and spectrum-based features to be extracted and used for more accurate emotional state recognition. Recursive Feature Elimination will be used as a feature selection method, whereas the classification of emotions will be performed by the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm. The proposed framework will be tested with a widely used public database, and results are expected to demonstrate higher accuracy and robustness compared to other studies. The contributions of this study are primarily about the improvement of the EEG-based emotion classification accuracy. There is a potential restriction of how generic the results can be as different EEG dataset might yield different results for the same framework. Therefore, experimenting with different EEG dataset and testing alternative feature selection schemes can be very interesting for future work.

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 Distributed Network Protocol (DNP3) is predominately used by the electric utility industry and, consequently, in smart grids. The Peekaboo attack was created to compromise DNP3 traffic, in which a man-in-the-middle on a communication link can capture and drop selected encrypted DNP3 messages by using support vector machine learning algorithms. The communication networks of smart grids are a important part of their infrastructure, so it is of critical importance to keep this communication secure and reliable. The main contribution of this paper is to compare the use of machine learning techniques to classify messages of the same protocol exchanged in encrypted tunnels. The study considers four simulated cases of encrypted DNP3 traffic scenarios and four different supervised machine learning algorithms: Decision tree, nearest-neighbor, support vector machine, and naive Bayes. The results obtained show that it is possible to extend a Peekaboo attack over multiple substations, using a decision tree learning algorithm, and to gather significant information from a system that communicates using encrypted DNP3 traffic.

This project describes "VoiEmo- A Speech Emotion Recognizer", a system for recognizing the emotional state of an individual from his/her speech. For example, one's speech becomes loud and fast, with a higher and wider range in pitch, when in a state of fear, anger, or joy whereas human voice is generally slow and low pitched in sadness and tiredness. We have particularly developed a classification model speech emotion detection based on Convolutional neural networks (CNNs), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) Classification which make predictions considering the acoustic features of speech signal such as Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC). Our models have been trained to recognize seven common emotions (neutral, calm, happy, sad, angry, fearful, disgust, surprise). For training and testing the model, we have used relevant data from the Ryerson Audio-Visual Database of Emotional Speech and Song (RAVDESS) dataset and the Toronto Emotional Speech Set (TESS) Dataset. The system is advantageous as it can provide a general idea about the emotional state of the individual based on the acoustic features of the speech irrespective of the language the speaker speaks in, moreover, it also saves time and effort. Speech emotion recognition systems have their applications in various fields like in call centers and BPOs, criminal investigation, psychiatric therapy, the automobile industry, etc.

In this contemporary era, the uses of machine learning techniques are increasing rapidly in the field of medical science for detecting various diseases such as liver disease (LD). Around the globe, a large number of people die because of this deadly disease. By diagnosing the disease in a primary stage, early treatment can be helpful to cure the patient. In this research paper, a method is proposed to diagnose the LD using supervised machine learning classification algorithms, namely logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, AdaBoost, KNN, linear discriminant analysis, gradient boosting and support vector machine (SVM). We also deployed a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) feature selection technique on our taken dataset to suggest the most highly correlated attributes of LD. The predictions with 10 fold cross-validation (CV) made by the algorithms are tested in terms of accuracy, sensitivity, precision and f1-score values to forecast the disease. It is observed that the decision tree algorithm has the best performance score where accuracy, precision, sensitivity and f1-score values are 94.295%, 92%, 99% and 96% respectively with the inclusion of LASSO. Furthermore, a comparison with recent studies is shown to prove the significance of the proposed system.
