In modulation identification issues, like in any other classification problem, the performance of the classification task is significantly impacted by the feature characteristics. Feature weighting boosts the performance of machine learning algorithms, particularly the class of instance-based learning algorithms such as the Minimum Distance (MD) classifier, in which the distance measure is highly sensitive to the magnitude of features. In this paper, we propose an improved version of the Salp Swarm optimization Algorithm (SSA), called ISSA, that will be applied to optimize feature weights for an MD classifier. The aim is to improve the performance of a blind digital modulation detection approach in the context of multiple-antenna systems. The improvements introduced to SSA mainly rely on the opposition-based learning technique. Computer simulations show that the ISSA outperforms the SSA as well as the algorithms that derive from it. The ISSA also exhibits the best performance once it is applied for feature weighting in the above context.

In the era of Industry 4.0, the idea of 3D printed products has gained momentum and is also proving to be beneficial in terms of financial and time efforts. These products are physically built layer-by-layer based on the digital Computer Aided Design (CAD) inputs. Nonetheless, 3D printed products are still subjected to defects due to variation in properties and structure, which leads to deterioration in the quality of printed products. Detection of these errors at each layer level of the product is of prime importance. This paper provides the methodology for layer-wise anomaly detection using an ensemble of machine learning algorithms and pre-trained models. The proposed combination is trained offline and implemented online for fault detection. The current work provides an experimental comparative study of different pre-trained models with machine learning algorithms for monitoring and fault detection in Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM). The results showed that the combination of the Alexnet and SVM algorithm has given the maximum accuracy. The proposed fault detection approach has low experimental and computing costs, which can easily be implemented for real-time fault detection.

Machine learning (ML) is a subsection of AI. The goal of ML is to understand the structure of data and fit that data into models that can be used for prediction, classification etc. Although machine learning is an area within computer science, it differs from traditional computational approaches. In recent years, different machine learning algorithms are used for disease prediction. Algorithms like Decision Tree (DT), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Multi- Linear Regression, Random Forest, Genetic Algorithm (GA), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Naive Bayes, etc. are used for classification. Using these algorithms liver fibrosis stages can be predicted. This paper discusses different machine learning algorithms for the prediction of liver fibrosis stage and the performance analysis of these algorithms in various studies.
