This paper aims to design and implement a system capable of distinguishing between different activities carried out during a tennis match. The goal is to achieve the correct classification of a set of tennis strokes. The system must exhibit robustness to the variability of the height, age or sex of any subject that performs the actions. A new database is developed to meet this objective. The system is based on two sensor nodes using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wireless technology to communicate with a PC that acts as a central device to collect the information received by the sensors. The data provided by these sensors are processed to calculate their spectrograms. Through the application of innovative deep learning techniques with semi-supervised training, it is possible to carry out the extraction of characteristics and the classification of activities. Preliminary results obtained with a data set of eight players, four women and four men have shown that our approach is able to address the problem of the diversity of human constitutions, weight and sex of different players, providing accuracy greater than 96.5% to recognize the tennis strokes of a new player never seen before by the system.

Drought is a condition of land in which the ground water faces a severe shortage. This condition affects the survival of plants and animals. Drought can impact ecosystem and agricultural productivity, severely. Hence, the economy also gets affected by this situation. This paper proposes Deep Belief Network (DBN) learning technique, which is one of the state of the art machine learning algorithms. This proposed work uses DBN, for classification of drought and non-drought images. Also, k nearest neighbour (kNN) and random forest learning methods have been proposed for the classification of the same drought images. The performance of the Deep Belief Network(DBN) has been compared with k nearest neighbour (kNN) and random forest. The data set has been split into 80:20, 70:30 and 60:40 as train and test. Finally, the effectiveness of the three proposed models have been measured by various performance metrics.

As the growth rate of the internet-of-things (IoT) sensor market is expected to exceed 30%, a technology that can easily collect and processing a large number of various types of sensor data is gradually required. However, conventional multilink IoT sensor communication based on Bluetooth low energy (BLE) enables only the processing of up to 19 peripheral nodes per central device. This study suggested an alternative to increasing the number of IoT sensor nodes while minimizing the addition of a central processor by expanding the number of peripheral nodes that can be processed per central device through a new group-switching algorithm based on Bluetooth low energy (BLE). Furthermore, this involves verifying the relevancy of application to the industry field. This device environment lowered the possibility of data errors and equipment troubles due to communication interference between central processors, which is a critical advantage when applying it to industry. The scalability and various benefits of a group-switching algorithm are expected to help accelerate various services via the application of BLE 5 wireless communication by innovatively improving the constraint of accessing up to 19 nodes per central device in the conventional multilink IoT sensor communication.

Machine learning (ML) is a subject that focuses on the data analysis using various statistical tools and learning processes in order to gain more knowledge from the data. The objective of this research was to apply one of the ML techniques on the low birth weight (LBW) data in Indonesia. This research conducts two ML tasks; including prediction and classification. The binary logistic regression model was firstly employed on the train and the test data. Then; the random approach was also applied to the data set. The results showed that the binary logistic regression had a good performance for prediction; but it was a poor approach for classification. On the other hand; random forest approach has a very good performance for both prediction and classification of the LBW data set

The accelerating legalization of Cannabis has opened the industry to using contemporary analytical techniques. The gene regulation and pharmacokinetics of dozens of cannabinoids remain poorly understood. Because retailers in many medical and recreational jurisdictions are required to report chemical concentrations of cannabinoids, commercial laboratories have growing chemotype datasets of diverse Cannabis cultivars. Using a data set of 17,600 cultivars tested by Steep Hill Inc., we apply machine learning techniques to interpolate missing chemotype observations and cluster cultivars together based on similarity. Our results show that cultivars cluster based on their chemotype, and that some imputation methods work better than others at grouping these cultivars based on chemotypic identity. However, due to the missing data for some of the cannabinoids their behavior could not be accurately predicted. These findings have implications for characterizing complex interactions in cannabinoid biosynthesis and improving phenotypical classification of Cannabis cultivars.

In this chapter, authors have discussed few machine learning techniques and their application to perform the supernovae classification. Supernovae has various types, mainly categorized into two important types. Here, focus is given on the classification of Type-Ia supernova. Astronomers use Type-Ia supernovae as “standard candles” to measure distances in the Universe. Classification of supernovae is mainly a matter of concern for the astronomers in the absence of spectra. Through the application of different machine learning techniques on the data set authors have tried to check how well classification of supernovae can be performed using these techniques. Data set used is available at Riess et al. (2007) (astro-ph/0611572).


Autism is a neuro-developmental disability that affects human communication and behaviour. It is a condition that is associated with the complex disorder of the brain which can lead to significant changes in social interaction and behaviour of a human being.Machine learning techniques are being applied to autism data sets to discover useful hidden patterns and to construct predictive models for detecting its risk.This paper focuses on finding the best machine learning classifier on the UCI autism disorder data set for identifying the main factors associated with autism. The results obtained using Multilayer Perceptron, Naive Bayes Classifier and Bayesian Networkwere compared with J48 Decision tree algorithm. The superiority of MultilayerPerceptron over the well known classification algorithms in predicting the autism risk is established in this paper.

In Science and Technology Development BCI plays a vital role in the field of Research. Classification is a data mining technique used to predict group membership for data instances. Analyses of BCI data are challenging because feature extraction and classification of these data are more difficult as compared with those applied to raw data. In this paper, We extracted features using statistical Haralick features from the raw EEG data . Then the features are Normalized, Binning is used to improve the accuracy of the predictive models by reducing noise and eliminate some irrelevant attributes and then the classification is performed using different classification techniques such as Naïve Bayes, k-nearest neighbor classifier, SVM classifier using BCI dataset. Finally we propose the SVM classification algorithm for the BCI data set.

Text classification has grown into more significant in managing and organizing the text data due to tremendous growth of online information. It does classification of documents in to fixed number of predefined categories. Rule based approach and Machine learning approach are the two ways of text classification. In rule based approach, classification of documents is done based on manually defined rules. In Machine learning based approach, classification rules or classifier are defined automatically using example documents. It has higher recall and quick process. This paper shows an investigation on text classification utilizing different machine learning techniques.
