In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid discriminative learning approach based on shifted-scaled Dirichlet mixture model (SSDMM) and Support Vector Machines (SVMs) to address some challenging problems of medical data categorization and recognition. The main goal is to capture accurately the intrinsic nature of biomedical images by considering the desirable properties of both generative and discriminative models. To achieve this objective, we propose to derive new data-based SVM kernels generated from the developed mixture model SSDMM. The proposed approach includes the following steps: the extraction of robust local descriptors, the learning of the developed mixture model via the expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm, and finally the building of three SVM kernels for data categorization and classification. The potential of the implemented framework is illustrated through two challenging problems that concern the categorization of retinal images into normal or diabetic cases and the recognition of lung diseases in chest X-rays (CXR) images. The obtained results demonstrate the merits of our hybrid approach as compared to other methods.

Distribution Grids

Precise information of fault location plays a vital role in expediting the restoration process, after being subjected to any kind of fault in power distribution grids. This paper proposed the Stockwell transform (ST) based optimized machine learning approach, to locate the faults and to identify the faulty sections in the distribution grids. This research employed the ST to extract useful features from the recorded three-phase current signals and fetches them as inputs to different machine learning tools (MLT), including the multilayer perceptron neural networks (MLP-NN), support vector machines (SVM), and extreme learning machines (ELM). The proposed approach employed the constriction-factor particle swarm optimization (CF-PSO) technique, to optimize the parameters of the SVM and ELM for their better generalization performance. Hence, it compared the obtained results of the test datasets in terms of the selected statistical performance indices, including the root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), percent bias (PBIAS), RMSE-observations to standard deviation ratio (RSR), coefficient of determination (R2), Willmott’s index of agreement (WIA), and Nash–Sutcliffe model efficiency coefficient (NSEC) to confirm the effectiveness of the developed fault location scheme. The satisfactory values of the statistical performance indices, indicated the superiority of the optimized machine learning tools over the non-optimized tools in locating faults. In addition, this research confirmed the efficacy of the faulty section identification scheme based on overall accuracy. Furthermore, the presented results validated the robustness of the developed approach against the measurement noise and uncertainties associated with pre-fault loading condition, fault resistance, and inception angle.

In machine learning, it is common to require a large number of instances to train a model for classification. In many cases, it is hard or expensive to acquire a large number of instances. In this paper, we propose a novel genetic programming (GP) based method to the problem of automatic image classification via adopting a one-shot learning approach. The proposed method relies on the combination of GP and Local Binary Patterns (LBP) techniques to detect a predefined number of informative regions that aim at maximising the between-class scatter and minimising the within-class scatter. Moreover, the proposed method uses only two instances of each class to evolve a classifier. To test the effectiveness of the proposed method, four different texture data sets are used and the performance is compared against two other GP-based methods namely Conventional GP and Two-tier GP. The experiments revealed that the proposed method outperforms these two methods on all the data sets. Moreover, a better performance has been achieved by Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine, and Decision Trees (J48) methods when extracted features by the proposed method have been used compared to the use of domain-specific and Two-tier GP extracted features. © Springer International Publishing 2013.

Machine Learning Approach

The Developing enthusiasm for the field of opinion mining and its applications in various regions of information and also, sociology has activated numerous researchers to investigate the field The chance to catch the opinion of the overall public about get-togethers, political developments, organization systems, advertising efforts, and item inclinations has raised expanding enthusiasm of both scientific community (as a result of the energizing open difficulties) and the business world (due to the wonderful advantages for promoting and money related market expectation). Today, sentiment analysis investigation has its applications in a few unique situations. There are a decent number of organizations, both huge and little scale, that focuses on opinions and sentiments as a major aspect of their central goal. This work introduces hybrid approach that includes lexicon based approach and machine learning approach for extracting aspects and sentiments
