Theo Jansen linkage is an appealing mechanism to implement a bio-inspired motion for a legged robot. The oval orbit that is generated by the Theo Jansen linkage, possessing a transversal axis longer than a lateral axis, achieves energy efficient walking comparing to the circular orbit that is generated by the four-bar linkage. However, the ensemble of its links can produce different patterns of orbits other than oval orbits, some of which are not qualified to be the foot trajectories. It is vital to give a guideline, to which one can refer, to ensure the design of a Theo Jansen leg always possessing its eligibility. In this paper, the machine learning technique, called SVM (Support Vector Machine) along with machine vision serving as a classifier to distinguish desired trajectories from undesired ones, is employed and two databases gathering all eligible data concerned with properties of orbits and dimensions of Theo Jansen linkages are established. Based upon SVM to delimit the eligible designs, one can seek the improvement of a Theo Jansen linkage by resizing its links without rendering an ineligible design. The ensemble dimensions of Theo Jansen linkage can be determined by searching the orbits in compliance with the specification of obliqueness and slenderness from the database of properties and using their correspondent identity numbers to list all candidates of TJLs from the database of dimensions. With the aid of this proposed method, the TJLs have been successfully designed and implemented on a legged robot.

<p>Information extraction from data is one of the key necessities for data analysis. Unsupervised nature of data leads to complex computational methods for analysis. This paper presents a density based spatial clustering technique integrated with one-class Support Vector Machine (SVM), a machine learning technique for noise reduction, a modified variant of DBSCAN called Noise Reduced DBSCAN (NRDBSCAN). Analysis of DBSCAN exhibits its major requirement of accurate thresholds, absence of which yields suboptimal results. However, identifying accurate threshold settings is unattainable. Noise is one of the major side-effects of the threshold gap. The proposed work reduces noise by integrating a machine learning classifier into the operation structure of DBSCAN. The Experimental results indicate high homogeneity levels in the clustering process.</p>


The number of readmissions in diabetic diseases keeps increasing from time to time in patients from various hospitals. This brings a dreadful name to the hospital and is also considered as an act of irresponsibility of the doctors. So in order to reduce the readmissions of diabetic patients, we propose an approach which uses a machine learning technique to compare the hospital records of various patients. We have used various diabetic dataset features for our technique to predict the readmission probability rates of patients. We compared our proposed technique with existing Machine Learning algorithms like Random Forest, K-means clustering, Support Vector Machine(SVM) and found the best possible prediction with proposed approach using receiver operating characteristic( ROC) curve.

In Requirement Engineering, software requirements are classified into two main categories: Functional Requirement (FR) and Non-Functional Requirement (NFR). FR describes user and system goals. NFR includes all constraints on services and functions. Deeper classification of those two categories facilitates the software development process. There are many techniques for classifying FR; some of them are Machine Learning (ML) techniques, and others are traditional. To date, the classification accuracy has not been satisfactory. In this paper, we introduce a new ensemble ML technique for classifying FR statements to improve their accuracy and availability. This technique combines different ML models and uses enhanced accuracy as a weight in the weighted ensemble voting approach. The five combined models are Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Classification (SVC). The technique was implemented, trained, and tested using a collected dataset. The accuracy of classifying FR was 99.45%, and the required time was 0.7 s.

The topic of Machine Learning is so popular that it is not only the future trend, but also the money tide. Machine learning technique and intelligent system methods are very popular in mechanical engineering. Robot laser surface hardening is one of the most promising techniques for surface modification of the microstructure of a material to improve wear and corrosion resistance. For predicting the surface roughness of the hardened specimens, the support vector machine and multiple regression is used. The aim of this paper is to present modeling roughness of point robot laser hardened specimens with different parameters of robot laser cell.

A wide reach on cancer prediction and detection using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) by the application of artificial intelligence is highly appreciated in the current scenario of the medical field. Next generation sequences were extracted from NCBI (National Centre for Biotechnology Information) gene repository. Sequences of normal Homo sapiens (Class 1), BRCA1 (Class 2) and BRCA2 (Class 3) were extracted for Machine Learning (ML) purpose. The total volume of datasets extracted for the process were 1580 in number under four categories of 50, 100, 150 and 200 sequences. The breast cancer prediction process was carried out in three major steps such as feature extraction, machine learning classification and performance evaluation. The features were extracted with sequences as input. Ten features of DNA sequences such as ORF (Open Reading Frame) count, individual nucleobase average count of A, T, C, G, AT and GC-content, AT/GC composition, G-quadruplex occurrence, MR (Mutation Rate) were extracted from three types of sequences for the classification process. The sequence type was also included as a target variable to the feature set with values 0, 1 and 2 for classes 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Nine various supervised machine learning techniques like LR (Logistic Regression statistical model), LDA (Linear Discriminant analysis model), k-NN (k nearest neighbours’ algorithm), DT (Decision tree technique), NB (Naive Bayes classifier), SVM (Support-Vector Machine algorithm), RF (Random Forest learning algorithm), AdaBoost (AB) and Gradient Boosting (GB) were employed on four various categories of datasets. Of all supervised models, decision tree machine learning technique performed most with maximum accuracy in classification of 94.03%. Classification model performance was evaluated using precision, recall, F1-score and support values wherein F1-score was most similar to the classification accuracy.
