This work proposes the evaluation of a set of algorithms of machine learning and the selection of the most appropriate one for the classification of segmented chromosomes images acquired using the Giemsa staining technique (G-banding). The evaluation and selection of the best classification algorithms was carried out over a dataset of 119 Q-banding chromosomes images, and the obtained results were then applied to a dataset of 24 G-band chromosomes images, manually classified by an expert of the Laboratory of Cytogenetic of the Children’s Hospital of Tamaulipas. The results of evaluation of 51 classifiers yielded that the best classification accuracy for the selected features was obtained by a backpropagation neural network. One of the main contributions of this study is the proposal of a two-stage classification scheme based on the best classifier found by the initial evaluation. In stage 1, chromosome images are classified into three major groups. In stage 2, the output of phase 1 is used as the input of a multiclass classifier. Using this scheme, 82% of the IGB bank samples and 88% of the samples of a bank of images obtained with a Q-band available in the literature consisting of 119 chromosome studies were successfully classified. The proposed work is a part of an desktop application that allows cytogeneticist to automatically generate cytogenetic reports.

Manual classification of sleep stage is a time-consuming but necessary step in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, and its automation has been an area of active study. The previous works have shown that low dimensional fast Fourier transform (FFT) features and many machine learning algorithms have been applied. In this paper, we demonstrate utilization of features extracted from EEG signals via FFT to improve the performance of automated sleep stage classification through machine learning methods. Unlike previous works using FFT, we incorporated thousands of FFT features in order to classify the sleep stages into 2–6 classes. Using the expanded version of Sleep-EDF dataset with 61 recordings, our method outperformed other state-of-the art methods. This result indicates that high dimensional FFT features in combination with a simple feature selection is effective for the improvement of automated sleep stage classification.

The recent development in artificial intelligence is quite astounding in this decade. Especially, machine learning is one of the core subareas of AI. Also, ML field is an incessantly growing along with evolution and becomes a rise in its demand and importance. It transmogrified the way data is extracted, analyzed, and interpreted. Computers are trained to get in a self-training mode so that when new data is fed they can learn, grow, change, and develop themselves without explicit programming. It helps to make useful predictions that can guide better decisions in a real-life situation without human interference. Selection of ML tool is always a challenging task, since choosing an appropriate tool can end up saving time as well as making it faster and easier to provide any solution. This chapter provides a classification of various machine learning tools on the following aspects: for non-programmers, for model deployment, for Computer vision, natural language processing, and audio for reinforcement learning and data mining.

The sleep stages determination is important for the identification and diagnosis of different diseases. An efficient algorithm of wavelet decomposition is used for feature extraction of single channel EEG. The Chi-Square method is applied for the selection of the best attributes from the extracted features. The classification of different staged techniques is applied with the help AdaBoost.M1 algorithm. The accuracy of 89.82% achieved in the six stage classification. The weighted sensitivity of all stages is 89.8% and kappa coefficient of 77.93% is obtained in the six stage classification.

A classification scheme for text documents consisting of five steps is described: pre-processing, indexing, selection of features, construction and training of a classifier, quality assessment. Two comparative analyzes by classification methods are considered. Conclusions are drawn about models and classification methods regarding implementation efficiency.

Criminals use online social networks for various activities by including communication, planning, and execution of criminal acts. They often employ ciphered posts using slang expressions, which are restricted to specific groups. Although literature shows advances in analysis of posts in natural language messages, such as hate discourses, threats, and more notably in the sentiment analysis; research enabling intention analysis of posts using slang expressions is still underexplored. We propose a framework and construct software prototypes for the selection of social network posts with criminal slang expressions and automatic classification of these posts according to illocutionary classes. The developed framework explores computational ontologies and machine learning (ML) techniques. Our defined Ontology of Criminal Expressions represents crime concepts in a formal and flexible model, and associates them with criminal slang expressions. This ontology is used for selecting suspicious posts and decipher them. In our solution, the criminal intention in written posts is automatically classified relying on learned models from existing posts. This work carries out a case study to evaluate the framework with 8,835,290 tweets. The obtained results show its viability by demonstrating the benefits in deciphering posts and the effectiveness of detecting user’s intention in written criminal posts based on ML.

In today’s dynamic world, there is a need for fast, efficient, and reliable means of communication. To meet these requirements email system was developed and it got popular with the invention of WWW. Now, the Email system has been used extensively for official, business, and personal communication. On average individual users receive 50-60 mails each day. It is becoming a burden to easily manage emails. So there is a need for effective and reliable means to organize the mails for easy and fast retrieval. An efficient approach is proposed in this paper to classify the mails based on the predefined genres. It has been observed in the proposed research that the classification of emails greatly improves efficiency and saves time and effort to manage them. The results obtained in this paper are very encouraging. Over 90 % of emails are categorized correctly. Email genres are predefined and corresponding keyword lists are generated. Frequency tf-idf of the keywords in the email decides the genre of mail. SVM is used as a multiclass classifier. In this paper need for negative training data has been removed as the proposed classifier works on the principle of one class against the rest.

The basic data in the problem of the prediction of technical object’s state of health based on the known indicators of its operation are the known results of the object state estimation by information about previous service. The problem may be solved using the machine learning methods, it reduces to binary classification of states of the object. The research was conducted in the Matlab environment, ten various basic methods of machine learning were used: naive Bayes classifier, neural networks, bagging of decision trees and others. In order to improve quality of healthy state identification, it has been suggested that aggregated methods combining several basic classifiers should be used. This paper addresses the issue of selection of the best aggregated classifier. The effectiveness of such approach has been confirmed by numerous tests of real-world objects.
