Alcohol Related Problems

Purpose: The number of patients with alcohol-related problems is steadily increasing. A large-scale survey of alcohol-related problems has been conducted. However, studies that predict hazardous drinkers and identify which factors contribute to the prediction are limited. Thus, the purpose of this study was to predict hazardous drinkers and the severity of alcohol-related problems of patients using a deep learning algorithm based on a large-scale survey data.Materials and Methods: Datasets of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of South Korea (K-NHANES), a nationally representative survey for the entire South Korean population, were used to train deep learning and conventional machine learning algorithms. Datasets from 69,187 and 45,672 participants were used to predict hazardous drinkers and the severity of alcohol-related problems, respectively. Based on the degree of contribution of each variable to deep learning, it was possible to determine which variable contributed significantly to the prediction of hazardous drinkers.Results: Deep learning showed the higher performance than conventional machine learning algorithms. It predicted hazardous drinkers with an AUC (Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve) of 0.870 (Logistic regression: 0.858, Linear SVM: 0.849, Random forest classifier: 0.810, K-nearest neighbors: 0.740). Among 325 variables for predicting hazardous drinkers, energy intake was a factor showing the greatest contribution to the prediction, followed by carbohydrate intake. Participants were classified into Zone I, Zone II, Zone III, and Zone IV based on the degree of alcohol-related problems, showing AUCs of 0.881, 0.774, 0.853, and 0.879, respectively.Conclusion: Hazardous drinking groups could be effectively predicted and individuals could be classified according to the degree of alcohol-related problems using a deep learning algorithm. This algorithm could be used to screen people who need treatment for alcohol-related problems among the general population or hospital visitors.

The Impact

The research aims to evaluate the impact of race in facial recognition across two types of algorithms. We give a general insight into facial recognition and discuss four problems related to facial recognition. We review our system design, development, and architectures and give an in-depth evaluation plan for each type of algorithm, dataset, and a look into the software and its architecture. We thoroughly explain the results and findings of our experimentation and provide analysis for the machine learning algorithms and deep learning algorithms. Concluding the investigation, we compare the results of two kinds of algorithms and compare their accuracy, metrics, miss rates, and performances to observe which algorithms mitigate racial bias the most. We evaluate racial bias across five machine learning algorithms and three deep learning algorithms using racially imbalanced and balanced datasets. We evaluate and compare the accuracy and miss rates between all tested algorithms and report that SVC is the superior machine learning algorithm and VGG16 is the best deep learning algorithm based on our experimental study. Our findings conclude the algorithm that mitigates the bias the most is VGG16, and all our deep learning algorithms outperformed their machine learning counterparts.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rising infrastructure of 21st century. The classification of traffic over IoT networks is attained significance importance due to rapid growth of users and devices. It is need of the hour to isolate the normal traffic from the malicious traffic and to assign the normal traffic to the proper destination to suffice the QoS requirements of the IoT users. Detection of malicious traffic can be done by continuously monitoring traffic for suspicious links, files, connection created and received, unrecognised protocol/port numbers, and suspicious Destination/Source IP combinations. A proficient classification mechanism in IoT environment should be capable enough to classify the heavy traffic in a fast manner, to deflect the malevolent traffic on time and to transmit the benign traffic to the designated nodes for serving the needs of the users. In this work, adaboost and Xgboost machine learning algorithms and Deep Neural Networks approach are proposed to separate the IoT traffic which eventually enhances the throughput of IoT networks and reduces the congestion over IoT channels. The result of experiment indicates a deep learning algorithm achieves higher accuracy compared to machine learning algorithms.

The current mainstream approach of using manual measurements and visual inspections for crop lodging detection is inefficient, time-consuming, and subjective. An innovative method for wheat lodging detection that can overcome or alleviate these shortcomings would be welcomed. This study proposed a systematic approach for wheat lodging detection in research plots (372 experimental plots), which consisted of using unmanned aerial systems (UAS) for aerial imagery acquisition, manual field evaluation, and machine learning algorithms to detect the occurrence or not of lodging. UAS imagery was collected on three different dates (23 and 30 July 2019, and 8 August 2019) after lodging occurred. Traditional machine learning and deep learning were evaluated and compared in this study in terms of classification accuracy and standard deviation. For traditional machine learning, five types of features (i.e. gray level co-occurrence matrix, local binary pattern, Gabor, intensity, and Hu-moment) were extracted and fed into three traditional machine learning algorithms (i.e., random forest (RF), neural network, and support vector machine) for detecting lodged plots. For the datasets on each imagery collection date, the accuracies of the three algorithms were not significantly different from each other. For any of the three algorithms, accuracies on the first and last date datasets had the lowest and highest values, respectively. Incorporating standard deviation as a measurement of performance robustness, RF was determined as the most satisfactory. Regarding deep learning, three different convolutional neural networks (simple convolutional neural network, VGG-16, and GoogLeNet) were tested. For any of the single date datasets, GoogLeNet consistently had superior performance over the other two methods. Further comparisons between RF and GoogLeNet demonstrated that the detection accuracies of the two methods were not significantly different from each other (p > 0.05); hence, the choice of any of the two would not affect the final detection accuracies. However, considering the fact that the average accuracy of GoogLeNet (93%) was larger than RF (91%), it was recommended to use GoogLeNet for wheat lodging detection. This research demonstrated that UAS RGB imagery, coupled with the GoogLeNet machine learning algorithm, can be a novel, reliable, objective, simple, low-cost, and effective (accuracy > 90%) tool for wheat lodging detection.

Traditionally, the classification of seed defects mainly relies on the characteristics of color, shape, and texture. This method requires repeated extraction of a large amount of feature information, which is not efficiently used in detection. In recent years, deep learning has performed well in the field of image recognition. We introduced convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transfer learning into the quality classification of seeds and compared them with traditional machine learning algorithms. Experiments showed that deep learning algorithm was significantly better than the machine learning algorithm with an accuracy of 95% (GoogLeNet) vs. 79.2% (SURF+SVM). We used three classifiers in GoogLeNet to demonstrate that network accuracy increases as the depth of the network increases. We used the visualization technology to obtain the feature map of each layer of the network in CNNs and used the heat map to represent the probability distribution of the inference results. As an end-to-end network, CNNs can be easily applied for automated seed manufacturing.

Innovation And Entrepreneurship

As the national economy has entered a stage of rapid development, the national economy and social development have also ushered in the “14th Five-Year Plan,” and the country has also issued support policies to encourage and guide college students to start their own businesses. Therefore, the establishment of an innovation and entrepreneurship platform has a significant impact on China’s economy. This gives college students great support and help in starting a business. The theory of deep learning algorithms originated from the development of artificial neural networks and is another important field of machine learning. As the computing power of computers has been greatly improved, especially the computing power of GPU can quickly train deep neural networks, deep learning algorithms have become an important research direction. The deep learning algorithm is a nonlinear network structure and a standard modeling method in the field of machine learning. After modeling various templates, they can be identified and implemented. This article uses a combination of theoretical research and empirical research, based on the views and research content of some scholars in recent years, and introduces the basic framework and research content of this article. Then, deep learning algorithms are used to analyze the experimental data. Data analysis is performed, and relevant concepts of deep learning algorithms are combined. This article focuses on exploring the construction of an IAE (innovation and entrepreneurship) education platform and making full use of the role of deep learning algorithms to realize the construction of innovation and entrepreneurship platforms. Traditional methods need to extract features through manual design, then perform feature classification, and finally realize the function of recognition. The deep learning algorithm has strong data image processing capabilities and can quickly process large-scale data. Research data show that 49.5% of college students and 35.2% of undergraduates expressed their interest in entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is a good choice to relieve employment pressure.

Forest fires have caused considerable losses to ecologies, societies and economies worldwide. To minimize these losses and reduce forest fires, modeling and predicting the occurrence of forest fires are meaningful because they can support forest fire prevention and management. In recent years, the convolutional neural network (CNN) has become an important state-of-the-art deep learning algorithm, and its implementation has enriched many fields. Therefore, a competitive spatial prediction model for automatic early detection of wild forest fire using machine learning algorithms can be proposed. This model can help researchers to predict forest fires and identify risk zonas. System using machine learning algorithm on geodata will be able to notify in real time the interested parts and authorities by providing alerts and presenting on maps based on geographical treatments for more efficacity and analyzing of the situation. This research extends the application of machine learning algorithms for early fire forest prediction to detection and representation in geographical information system (GIS) maps.

Abstract Conventional flow-based two-phase upscaling for simulating the waterflooding process requires the calculations of upscaled two-phase parameters for each coarse interface or block. The whole procedure can be greatly time-consuming especially for large-scale reservoir models. To address this problem, flow-based two-phase upscaling techniques are combined with machine learning algorithms, in which the flow-based two-phase upscaling is needed only for a small fraction of coarse interfaces (or blocks), while the upscaled two-phase parameters for the rest of the coarse interfaces (or blocks) are directly provided by the machine learning algorithms instead of performing upscaling computation on each coarse interfaces (or blocks). The new two-phase upscaling workflow was tested for generic (left to right) flow problems using a 2D large-scale model. We observed similar accuracy for results using the machine learning assisted workflow compared with the results using full flow-based upscaling. And significant speedup (nearly 70) is achieved. The workflow developed in this work is one of the pioneering work in combining machine learning algorithm with the time-consuming flow-based two-phase upscaling method. It is a valuable addition to the existing multiscale techniques for subsurface flow simulation.

Nowadays, smart devices as a part of daily life collect data about their users with the help of sensors placed on them. Sensor data are usually physical data but mobile applications collect more than physical data like device usage habits and personal interests. Collected data are usually classified as personal, but they contain valuable information about their users when it is analyzed and interpreted. One of the main purposes of personal data analysis is to make predictions about users. Collected data can be divided into two major categories: physical and behavioral data. Behavioral data are also named as neurophysical data. Physical and neurophysical parameters are collected as a part of this study. Physical data contains measurements of the users like heartbeats, sleep quality, energy, movement/mobility parameters. Neurophysical data contain keystroke patterns like typing speed and typing errors. Users’ emotional/mood statuses are also investigated by asking daily questions. Six questions are asked to the users daily in order to determine the mood of them. These questions are emotion-attached questions, and depending on the answers, users’ emotional states are graded. Our aim is to show that there is a connection between users’ physical/neurophysical parameters and mood/emotional conditions. To prove our hypothesis, we collect and measure physical and neurophysical parameters of 15 users for 1 year. The novelty of this work to the literature is the usage of both combinations of physical and neurophysical parameters. Another novelty is that the emotion classification task is performed by both conventional machine learning algorithms and deep learning models. For this purpose, Feedforward Neural Network (FFNN), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural network are employed as deep learning methodologies. Multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and Decision Integration Strategy (DIS) are evaluated as conventional machine learning algorithms. To the best of our knowledge, this is the very first attempt to analyze the neurophysical conditions of the users by evaluating deep learning models for mood analysis and enriching physical characteristics with neurophysical parameters. Experiment results demonstrate that the utilization of deep learning methodologies and the combination of both physical and neurophysical parameters enhances the classification success of the system to interpret the mood of the users. A wide range of comparative and extensive experiments shows that the proposed model exhibits noteworthy results compared to the state-of-art studies.
