The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the ability of machine-learning (ML) methods for liver cancer classification using a fused dataset of two-dimensional (2D) computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Datasets of benign (hepatocellular adenoma, hemangioma, cyst) and malignant (hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatoblastoma, metastasis) liver cancer were acquired at Bahawal Victoria Hospital (BVH), Bahawalpur, Pakistan. The final dataset was generated by fusion of 1200 (100 × 6 × 2) MR and CT-scan images, 200 (100 MRI and 100 CT-scan) images size 512 × 512 for each class of cancer. The acquired dataset was preprocessed by employing the Gabor filters to reduce the noise and taking an automated region of interest (ROIs) using an Otsu thresholding-based segmentation approach. The preprocessed dataset was used to acquire 254 hybrid-feature data for each ROI, which is the combination of the histogram, wavelet, co-occurrence, and run-length features, while 10 optimized hybrid features were selected by employing (probability of error plus average correlation) feature selection technique. For classification, we deployed this optimized hybrid-feature dataset to four ML classifiers: multilayer perceptron (MLP), support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and J48, using a ten fold cross-validation method. MLP showed an overall accuracy of (95.78% on MRI and 97.44% on CT). Unfortunately, the obtained results were not promising, and there were some limitations due to the different modalities of the dataset. Thereafter, a fusion of MRI and CT-scan datasets generated the fused optimized hybrid-feature dataset. The MLP has shown a promising accuracy of 99% among all the deployed classifiers.

In agriculture the major problem is leaf disease identifying these disease in early stage increases the yield. To reduce the loss identifying the various disease is very important. In this work , an efficient technique for identifying unhealthy tomato leaves using a machine learning algorithm is proposed. Support Vector Machines (SVM) is the methodology of machine learning , and have been successfully applied to a number of applications to identify region of interest, classify the region. The proposed algorithm has three main staggers, namely preprocessing, feature extraction and classification. In preprocessing, the images are converted to RGB and the average filter is used to eliminate the noise in the input image. After the pre-processing stage, features such as texture, color and shape are extracted from each image. Then, the extracted features are presented to the classifier to classify an input tomato leaf as a healthy or unhealthy image. For classification, in this paper, a multi-kernel support vector machine (MKSVM) is used. The performance of the proposed method is analysed on the basis of different metrics, such as accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. The images used in the test are collected from the plant village. The proposed method implemented in MATLAB.

A tumor is an abnormal tissue classified as either benign or malignant. A breast tumor is one of the most common tumors in women. Radiologists use mammograms to identify a breast tumor and classify it, which is a time-consuming process and prone to error due to the complexity of the tumor. In this study, we applied machine learning-based techniques to assist the radiologist in reading mammogram images and classifying the tumor in a very reasonable time interval. We extracted several features from the region of interest in the mammogram, which the radiologist manually annotated. These features are incorporated into a classification engine to train and build the proposed structure classification models. We used a dataset that was not previously seen in the model to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed system following the standard model evaluation schemes. Accordingly, this study found that various factors could affect the performance, which we avoided after experimenting all the possible ways. This study finally recommends using the optimized Support Vector Machine or Naïve Bayes, which produced 100% accuracy after integrating the feature selection and hyper-parameter optimization schemes.

Performance Results

Accurate prediction of roadway traffic noise remains challenging. Many researchers continue to improve the performance of their models by either adding more variables or improving their modeling algorithms. In this research, machine learning (ML) modeling techniques were developed to predict roadway traffic noise accurately. The ML techniques applied were: regression decision trees, support vector machine, ensembles, and artificial neural network. The parameters of each of these models were fine-tuned to achieve the best performance results. In addition, a state-of-the-art hybrid feature-selection technique has been employed to select a minimum set of input features (variables) while maintaining the accuracy of the developed models. By optimizing the number of features used in the model, the resources needed to develop and utilize a model to predict roadway noise would be less, hence decreasing the development cost. The proposed approach has been applied to develop a free-field roadway traffic noise model for Sharjah City in the United Arab Emirates. The best developed ML model was compared with a conventional regression model which was developed earlier under the same conditions. The cross-validated results clearly indicate that the best ML model outperformed the regression modeling. The performance of the ML model was also assessed after reducing the number of its input features based on the outcome of the feature-selection algorithm; the model performance was slightly affected. This result emphasizes the importance of considering only features that greatly influence the roadway traffic noise.
