In vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) technology make it possible for infertile couples to conceive a baby successfully. Nevertheless, IVF-ET does not guarantee success. Frozen embryo transfer (FET) is an important supplement to IVF-ET. Many factors are correlated with the outcome of FET which is unpredictable. Machine learning is a field of study that predict various outcomes by defining data attributes and using relevant data and calculation algorithms. Machine learning algorithm has been widely used in clinical research. The present study focuses on making predictions of early pregnancy outcomes in FET through clinical characters, including age, body mass index (BMI), endometrial thickness (EMT) on the day of progesterone treatment, good-quality embryo rate (GQR), and type of infertility (primary or secondary), serum estradiol level (E2) on the day of embryo transfer, and serum progesterone level (P) on the day of embryo transfer. We applied four representative machine learning algorithms, including logistic regression (LR), conditional inference tree, random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM) to build prediction models and identify the predictive factors. We found no significant difference among the models in the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive rate, negative predictive rate or accuracy in predicting the pregnancy outcome of FET. For example, the positive/negative predictive rate of the SVM (gamma = 1, cost = 100, 10-fold cross validation) is 0.56 and 0.55. This approach could provide a reference for couples considering FET. The prediction accuracy of the present study is limited, which suggests that there may be some other more effective predictors to be developed in future work.

A large volume of datasets is available in various fields that are stored to be somewhere which is called big data. Big Data healthcare has clinical data set of every patient records in huge amount and they are maintained by Electronic Health Records (EHR). More than 80 % of clinical data is the unstructured format and reposit in hundreds of forms. The challenges and demand for data storage, analysis is to handling large datasets in terms of efficiency and scalability. Hadoop Map reduces framework uses big data to store and operate any kinds of data speedily. It is not solely meant for storage system however conjointly a platform for information storage moreover as processing. It is scalable and fault-tolerant to the systems. Also, the prediction of the data sets is handled by machine learning algorithm. This work focuses on the Extreme Machine Learning algorithm (ELM) that can utilize the optimized way of finding a solution to find disease risk prediction by combining ELM with Cuckoo Search optimization-based Support Vector Machine (CS-SVM). The proposed work also considers the scalability and accuracy of big data models, thus the proposed algorithm greatly achieves the computing work and got good results in performance of both veracity and efficiency.


In today’s world social media is one of the most important tool for communication that helps people to interact with each other and share their thoughts, knowledge or any other information. Some of the most popular social media websites are Facebook, Twitter, Whatsapp and Wechat etc. Since, it has a large impact on people’s daily life it can be used a source for any fake or misinformation. So it is important that any information presented on social media should be evaluated for its genuineness and originality in terms of the probability of correctness and reliability to trust the information exchange. In this work we have identified the features that can be helpful in predicting whether a given Tweet is Rumor or Information. Two machine learning algorithm are executed using WEKA tool for the classification that is Decision Tree and Support Vector Machine.

By 2020 around 25-50 billion devices are likely to be connected to the internet. Due to this new development, it gives rise to something called Internet of Things (IoT). The interconnected devices can generate and share data over a network. Machine Learning plays a key role in IoT to handle the vast amount of data. It gives IoT and devices a brain to think, which is often called as intelligence. The data can be feed to machines for learning patterns, based on training the machines can identify to predict for the future. This paper gives a brief explanation of IoT. This paper gives a crisp explanation of machine learning algorithm and its types. However, Support Vector Machine (SVM) is explained in details along with its merits and demerits. An algorithm is also proposed for weather prediction using SVM for IoT.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been and remains one of the major challenges humanity has faced thus far. Over the past few months, large amounts of information have been collected that are only now beginning to be assimilated. In the present work, the existence of residual information in the massive numbers of rRT-PCRs that tested positive out of the almost half a million tests that were performed during the pandemic is investigated. This residual information is believed to be highly related to a pattern in the number of cycles that are necessary to detect positive samples as such. Thus, a database of more than 20,000 positive samples was collected, and two supervised classification algorithms (a support vector machine and a neural network) were trained to temporally locate each sample based solely and exclusively on the number of cycles determined in the rRT-PCR of each individual. Finally, the results obtained from the classification show how the appearance of each wave is coincident with the surge of each of the variants present in the region of Galicia (Spain) during the development of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and clearly identified with the classification algorithm.

In recent years the popularity of anime has steadily grown. Similar to other forms of media consumers often face a pressing issue: “What do I watch next?”. In this study, we thoroughly examined the current method of solving this issue and determined that the learning curve to effectively utilize the current solution is too high. We developed a program to ensure easier answers to the issue. The program uses a Python-based machine learning algorithm from ScikitLearn and data from My Animelist to create an accurate model that delivers what consumers want, good recommendations [9]. We also carried out different experiments with several iterations to study the difference in accuracy when applying different factors. Through these tests, we have successfully created a reliable Support vector machine model with 57% accuracy in recommending users what to watch.


India is an agricultural country where most of people are depends on the agriculture. When Plants are infected by the virus, fungus and bacteria, they are mostly seen on leaves and stems of the plants. Because of that, plants production is decreased also economy of the country is decreased. The farmer has to identify the disease and decide which pesticide will be used to control the disease in plants. To finding out which disease affect the plants, the farmer contacts the expert for the solution. The expert gives the advice based on its knowledge and information but sometimes seeking the expert advice is time consuming, expensive and may be not accurate. So, to solve this problem, the image processing techniques and Machine Learning algorithm like Neural Network, Fuzzy Logic and Support Vector Machine gives the better, accurate and affordable solution to control the plants disease than manual method.

Background and Objective. To mitigate the spread of the virus responsible for COVID-19, known as SARS-CoV-2, there is an urgent need for massive population testing. Due to the constant shortage of PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test reagents, which are the tests for COVID-19 by excellence, several medical centers have opted for immunological tests to look for the presence of antibodies produced against this virus. However, these tests have a high rate of false positives (positive but actually negative test results) and false negatives (negative but actually positive test results) and are therefore not always reliable. In this paper, we proposed a solution based on Data Analysis and Machine Learning to detect COVID-19 infections. Methods. Our analysis and machine learning algorithm is based on most cited two clinical datasets from the literature: one from San Raffaele Hospital Milan Italia and the other from Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein São Paulo Brasilia. The datasets were processed to select the best features that most influence the target, and it turned out that almost all of them are blood parameters. EDA (Exploratory Data Analysis) methods were applied to the datasets, and a comparative study of supervised machine learning models was done, after which the support vector machine (SVM) was selected as the one with the best performance. Results. SVM being the best performant is used as our proposed supervised machine learning algorithm. An accuracy of 99.29%, sensitivity of 92.79%, and specificity of 100% were obtained with the dataset from Kaggle (https://www.kaggle.com/einsteindata4u/covid19) after applying optimization to SVM. The same procedure and work were performed with the dataset taken from San Raffaele Hospital (https://zenodo.org/record/3886927#.YIluB5AzbMV). Once more, the SVM presented the best performance among other machine learning algorithms, and 92.86%, 93.55%, and 90.91% for accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, respectively, were obtained. Conclusion. The obtained results, when compared with others from the literature based on these same datasets, are superior, leading us to conclude that our proposed solution is reliable for the COVID-19 diagnosis.
