Naturally derived bioactive peptides with antihypertensive activities serve as promising alternatives to pharmaceutical drugs. There are few relevant reports on the mapping relationship between the EC50 value of antihypertensive peptide activity (AHTPA-EC50) and its corresponding amino acid sequence (AAS) at present. In this paper, we have constructed two group series based on sorting natural logarithm of AHTPA-EC50 or sorting its corresponding AAS encoding number. One group possesses two series, and we find that there must be a random number series in any group series. The random number series manifests fractal characteristics, and the constructed series of sorting natural logarithm of AHTPA-EC50 shows good autocorrelation characteristics. Therefore, two non-linear autoregressive models with exogenous input (NARXs) were established to describe the two series. A prediction method is further designed for AHTPA-EC50 prediction based on the proposed model. Two dynamic neural networks for NARXs (NARXNNs) are designed to verify the two series characteristics. Dipeptides and tripeptides are used to verify the proposed prediction method. The results show that the mean square error (MSE) of prediction is about 0.5589 for AHTPA-EC50 prediction when the classification of AAS is correct. The proposed method provides a solution for AHTPA-EC50 prediction.

Background: Bioluminescence is a unique and significant phenomenon in nature. Bioluminescence is important for the lifecycle of some organisms and is valuable in biomedical research, including for gene expression analysis and bioluminescence imaging technology.In recent years, researchers have identified a number of methods for predicting bioluminescent proteins (BLPs), which have increased in accuracy, but could be further improved. Method: In this paper, we propose a new bioluminescent proteins prediction method based on a voting algorithm. We used four methods of feature extraction based on the amino acid sequence. We extracted 314 dimensional features in total from amino acid composition, physicochemical properties and k-spacer amino acid pair composition. In order to obtain the highest MCC value to establish the optimal prediction model, then used a voting algorithm to build the model.To create the best performing model, we discuss the selection of base classifiers and vote counting rules. Results: Our proposed model achieved 93.4% accuracy, 93.4% sensitivity and 91.7% specificity in the test set, which was better than any other method. We also improved a previous prediction of bioluminescent proteins in three lineages using our model building method, resulting in greatly improved accuracy.

Natural disasters not only disturb the human ecological system but also destroy the properties and critical infrastructures of human societies and even lead to permanent change in the ecosystem. Disaster can be caused by naturally occurring events such as earthquakes, cyclones, floods, and wildfires. Many deep learning techniques have been applied by various researchers to detect and classify natural disasters to overcome losses in ecosystems, but detection of natural disasters still faces issues due to the complex and imbalanced structures of images. To tackle this problem, we propose a multilayered deep convolutional neural network. The proposed model works in two blocks: Block-I convolutional neural network (B-I CNN), for detection and occurrence of disasters, and Block-II convolutional neural network (B-II CNN), for classification of natural disaster intensity types with different filters and parameters. The model is tested on 4428 natural images and performance is calculated and expressed as different statistical values: sensitivity (SE), 97.54%; specificity (SP), 98.22%; accuracy rate (AR), 99.92%; precision (PRE), 97.79%; and F1-score (F1), 97.97%. The overall accuracy for the whole model is 99.92%, which is competitive and comparable with state-of-the-art algorithms.

Ischemic stroke is one of the typical chronic diseases caused by the degeneration of the neural system, which usually leads to great damages to human beings and reduces life quality significantly. Thereby, it is crucial to extract useful predictors from physiological signals, and further diagnose or predict ischemic stroke when there are no apparent symptoms. Specifically, in this study, we put forward a novel prediction method by exploring sleep related features. First, to characterize the pattern of ischemic stroke accurately, we extract a set of effective features from several aspects, including clinical features, fine-grained sleep structure-related features and electroencephalogram-related features. Second, a two-step prediction model is designed, which combines commonly used classifiers and a data filter model together to optimize the prediction result. We evaluate the framework using a real polysomnogram dataset that contains 20 stroke patients and 159 healthy individuals. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model can predict stroke events effectively, and the Precision, Recall, Precision Recall Curve and Area Under the Curve are 63%, 85%, 0.773 and 0.919, respectively.

In this paper, we present an approach for the multi-label classification of remote sensing images based on data-efficient transformers. During the training phase, we generated a second view for each image from the training set using data augmentation. Then, both the image and its augmented version were reshaped into a sequence of flattened patches and then fed to the transformer encoder. The latter extracts a compact feature representation from each image with the help of a self-attention mechanism, which can handle the global dependencies between different regions of the high-resolution aerial image. On the top of the encoder, we mounted two classifiers, a token and a distiller classifier. During training, we minimized a global loss consisting of two terms, each corresponding to one of the two classifiers. In the test phase, we considered the average of the two classifiers as the final class labels. Experiments on two datasets acquired over the cities of Trento and Civezzano with a ground resolution of two-centimeter demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed model.

AbstractIt is difficult to identify the historical period in which some ancient murals were created because of damage due to artificial and/or natural factors; similarities in content, style, and color among murals; low image resolution; and other reasons. This study proposed a transfer learning-fused Inception-v3 model for dynasty-based classification. First, the model adopted Inception-v3 with frozen fully connected and softmax layers for pretraining over ImageNet. Second, the model fused Inception-v3 with transfer learning for parameter readjustment over small datasets. Third, the corresponding bottleneck files of the mural images were generated, and the deep-level features of the images were extracted. Fourth, the cross-entropy loss function was employed to calculate the loss value at each step of the training, and an algorithm for the adaptive learning rate on the stochastic gradient descent was applied to unify the learning rate. Finally, the updated softmax classifier was utilized for the dynasty-based classification of the images. On the constructed small datasets, the accuracy rate, recall rate, and F1 value of the proposed model were 88.4%, 88.36%, and 88.32%, respectively, which exhibited noticeable increases compared with those of typical deep learning models and modified convolutional neural networks. Comparisons of the classification outcomes for the mural dataset with those for other painting datasets and natural image datasets showed that the proposed model achieved stable classification outcomes with a powerful generalization capacity. The training time of the proposed model was only 0.7 s, and overfitting seldom occurred.

Ransomware (RW) is a distinctive variety of malware that encrypts the files or locks the user’s system by keeping and taking their files hostage, which leads to huge financial losses to users. In this article, we propose a new model that extracts the novel features from the RW dataset and performs classification of the RW and benign files. The proposed model can detect a large number of RW from various families at runtime and scan the network, registry activities, and file system throughout the execution. API-call series was reutilized to represent the behavior-based features of RW. The technique extracts fourteen-feature vector at runtime and analyzes it by applying online machine learning algorithms to predict the RW. To validate the effectiveness and scalability, we test 78550 recent malign and benign RW and compare with the random forest and AdaBoost, and the testing accuracy is extended at 99.56%.

The accurate exploration of the sentiment information in comments for Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) courses plays an important role in improving its curricular quality and promoting MOOC platform’s sustainable development. At present, most of the sentiment analyses of comments for MOOC courses are actually studies in the extensive sense, while relatively less attention is paid to such intensive issues as the polysemous word and the familiar word with an upgraded significance, which results in a low accuracy rate of the sentiment analysis model that is used to identify the genuine sentiment tendency of course comments. For this reason, this paper proposed an ALBERT-BiLSTM model for sentiment analysis of comments for MOOC courses. Firstly, ALBERT was used to dynamically generate word vectors. Secondly, the contextual feature vectors were obtained through BiLSTM pre-sequence and post-sequence, and the attention mechanism that could calculate the weight of different words in a sentence was applied together. Finally, the BiLSTM output vectors were input into Softmax for the classification of sentiments and prediction of the sentimental tendency. The experiment was performed based on the genuine data set of comments for MOOC courses. It was proved in the result that the proposed model was higher in accuracy rate than the already existing models.

Pattern classification is related with the automatic finding of regularities in dataset through the utilization of various learning techniques. Thus, the classification of the objects into a set of categories or classes is provided. This study is undertaken to evaluate deep learning methodologies to the classification of stock patterns. In order to classify patterns that are obtained from stock charts, convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), and long-short term memory networks (LSTMs) are employed. To demonstrate the efficiency of proposed model in categorizing patterns, hand-crafted image dataset is constructed from stock charts in Istanbul Stock Exchange and NASDAQ Stock Exchange. Experimental results show that the usage of convolutional neural networks exhibits superior classification success in recognizing patterns compared to the other deep learning methodologies.
