Apples are one of the most kind of important fruit in the world. China has been the largest apple producing country. Yield estimating, robot harvesting, precise spraying are important processes for precise planting apples. Image segmentation is an important step in machine vision systems for precision apple planting. In this paper, an apple fruit segmentation algorithm applied in the orchard was studied. The effect of many color features in classifying apple fruit pixels from other pixels was evaluated. Three color features were selected. This color features could effectively distinguish the apple fruit pixels from other pixels. The GLCM (Grey-Level Co-occurrence Matrix) was used to extract texture features. The best distance and orientation parameters for GLCM were found. Nine machine learning algorithms had been used to develop pixel classifiers. The classifier was trained with 100 pixels and tested with 100 pixels. The accuracy of the classifier based on Random Forest reached 0.94. One hundred images of an apple orchard were artificially labeled with apple fruit pixels and other pixels. At the same time, a classifier was used to segment these images. Regression analysis was performed on the results of artificial labeling and classifier classification. The average values of Af (segmentation error), FPR (false positive rate) and FNR (false negative rate) were 0.07, 0.13 and 0.15, respectively. This result showed that this algorithm could segment apple fruit in orchard images effectively. It could provide a reference for precise apple planting management.

In this chapter, an initiative is proposed where natural language processing (NLP) techniques and supervised machine learning algorithms have been combined to detect external plagiarism. The major emphasis is on to construct a framework to detect plagiarism from monolingual texts by implementing n-gram frequency comparison approach. The framework is based on 120 characteristics which have been extracted during pre-processing steps using simple NLP approach. Afterward, filter metrics has been applied to select most relevant features and supervised classification learning algorithm has been used later to classify the documents in four levels of plagiarism. Then, confusion matrix was built to estimate the false positives and false negatives. Finally, the authors have shown C4.5 decision tree-based classifier's suitability on calculating accuracy over naive Bayes. The framework achieved 89% accuracy with low false positive and false negative rate and it shows higher precision and recall value comparing to passage similarities method, sentence similarity method, and search space reduction method.

Cotton is one of the major crops in India, where 23% of cotton gets exported to other countries. The cotton yield depends on crop growth, and it gets affected by diseases. In this paper, cotton disease classification is performed using different machine learning algorithms. For this research, the cotton leaf image database was used to segment the images from the natural background using modified factorization-based active contour method. First, the color and texture features are extracted from segmented images. Later, it has to be fed to the machine learning algorithms such as multilayer perceptron, support vector machine, Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, AdaBoost, and K-nearest neighbor. Four color features and eight texture features were extracted, and experimentation was done using three cases: (1) only color features, (2) only texture features, and (3) both color and texture features. The performance of classifiers was better when color features are extracted compared to texture feature extraction. The color features are enough to classify the healthy and unhealthy cotton leaf images. The performance of the classifiers was evaluated using performance parameters such as precision, recall, F-measure, and Matthews correlation coefficient. The accuracies of classifiers such as support vector machine, Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, AdaBoost, and K-nearest neighbor are 93.38%, 90.91%, 95.86%, 92.56%, and 94.21%, respectively, whereas that of the multilayer perceptron classifier is 96.69%.

Screening Programs

Cervical malignant growth is the fourth most typical reason for disease demise in women around the globe. Cervical cancer growth is related to human papillomavirus (HPV) contamination. Early screening made cervical cancer a preventable disease that results in minimizing the global burden of cervical cancer. In developing countries, women do not approach sufficient screening programs because of the costly procedures to undergo examination regularly, scarce awareness, and lack of access to the medical center. In this manner, the expectation of the individual patient's risk becomes very high. There are many risk factors relevant to malignant cervical formation. This paper proposes an approach named CervDetect that uses machine learning algorithms to evaluate the risk elements of malignant cervical formation. CervDetect uses Pearson correlation between input variables as well as with the output variable to pre-process the data. CervDetect uses the random forest (RF) feature selection technique to select significant features. Finally, CervDetect uses a hybrid approach by combining RF and shallow neural networks to detect Cervical Cancer. Results show that CervDetect accurately predicts cervical cancer, outperforms the state-of-the-art studies, and achieved an accuracy of 93.6%, mean squared error (MSE) error of 0.07111, false-positive rate (FPR) of 6.4%, and false-negative rate (FNR) of 100%.

Remote Healthcare

Machine learning algorithms are extensively used in healthcare analytics to learn normal and abnormal patterns automatically. The detection and prediction accuracy of any machine learning model depends on many factors like ground truth instances, attribute relationships, model design, the size of the dataset, the percentage of uncertainty, the training and testing environment, etc. Prediction models in healthcare should generate a minimal false positive and false negative rate. To accomplish high classification or prediction accuracy, the screening of health status needs to be personalized rather than following general clinical practice guidelines (CPG) which fits for an average population. Hence, a personalized screening model (IPAD – Intelligent Personalized Abnormality Detection) for remote healthcare is proposed that tailored to specific individual. The severity level of the abnormal status has been derived using personalized health values and the IPAD model obtains an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.907.

Phishing Detection

Phishing attacks have risen by 209% in the last 10 years according to the Anti Phishing Working Group (APWG) statistics [19]. Machine learning is commonly used to detect phishing attacks. Researchers have traditionally judged phishing detection models with either accuracy or F1-scores, however in this paper we argue that a single metric alone will never correlate to a successful deployment of machine learning phishing detection model. This is because every machine learning model will have an inherent trade-off between it’s False Positive Rate (FPR) and False Negative Rate (FNR). Tuning the trade-off is important since a higher or lower FPR/FNR will impact the user acceptance rate of any deployment of a phishing detection model. When models have high FPR, they tend to block users from accessing legitimate webpages, whereas a model with a high FNR will allow the users to inadvertently access phishing webpages. Either one of these extremes may cause a user base to either complain (due to blocked pages) or fall victim to phishing attacks. Depending on the security needs of a deployment (secure vs relaxed setting) phishing detection models should be tuned accordingly. In this paper, we demonstrate two effective techniques to tune the trade-off between FPR and FNR: varying the class distribution of the training data and adjusting the probabilistic prediction threshold. We demonstrate both techniques using a data set of 50,000 phishing and 50,000 legitimate sites to perform all experiments using three common machine learning algorithms for example, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, and Neural Networks. Using our techniques we are able to regulate a model’s FPR/FNR. We observed that among the three algorithms we used, Neural Networks performed best; resulting in an higher F1-score of 0.98 with corresponding FPR/FNR values of 0.0003 and 0.0198 respectively.

The KDD Cup '99 is commonly used dataset for training and testing IDS machine learning algorithms. Some of the major downsides of the dataset are the distribution and the proportions of U2R and R2L instances, which represent the most dangerous attack types, as well as the existence of R2L attack instances identical to normal traffic. This enforces minor category detection complexity and causes problems while building a machine learning model capable of detecting these attacks with sufficiently low false negative rate. This paper presents a new support vector machine based intrusion detection system that classifies unknown data instances according both to the feature values and weight factors that represent importance of features towards the classification. Increased detection rate and significantly decreased false negative rate for U2R and R2L categories, that have a very few instances in the training set, have been empirically proven.

Bangladesh is a densely populated country where a large portion of citizens is living under poverty. In Bangladesh, a significant portion of higher education is accomplished at private universities. In this twenty-first century, these students of higher education are highly mobile and different from earlier generations. Thus, retaining existing students has become a great challenge for many private universities in Bangladesh. Early prediction of the total number of registered students in a semester can help in this regard. This can have a direct impact on a private university in terms of budget, marketing strategy, and sustainability. In this paper, we have predicted the number of registered students in a semester in the context of a private university by following several machine learning approaches. We have applied seven prominent classifiers, namely SVM, Naive Bayes, Logistic, JRip, J48, Multilayer Perceptron, and Random Forest on a data set of more than a thousand students of a private university in Bangladesh, where each record contains five attributes. First, all data are preprocessed. Then preprocessed data are separated into the training and testing set. Then, all these classifiers are trained and tested. Since a suitable classifier is required to solve the problem, the performances of all seven classifiers need to be thoroughly assessed. So, we have computed six performance metrics, i.e. accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, precision, false positive rate (FPR) and false negative rate (FNR) for each of the seven classifiers and compare them. We have found that SVM outperforms all other classifiers achieving 85.76% accuracy, whereas Random Forest achieved the lowest accuracy which is 79.65%.
