The new coronavirus has been spreading since the beginning of 2020 and many efforts have been made to develop vaccines to help patients recover. It is now clear that the world needs a rapid solution to curb the spread of COVID-19 worldwide with non-clinical approaches such as data mining, enhanced intelligence, and other artificial intelligence techniques. These approaches can be effective in reducing the burden on the health care system to provide the best possible way to diagnose and predict the COVID-19 epidemic. In this study, data mining models for early detection of Covid-19 in patients were developed using the epidemiological dataset of patients and individuals suspected of having Covid-19 in Iran. C4.5, support vector machine, Naive Bayes, logistic regression, Random Forest, and k-nearest neighbor algorithm were used directly on the dataset using Rapid miner to develop the models. By receiving clinical signs, this model diagnosis the risk of contracting the COVID-19 virus. Examination of the models in this study has shown that the support vector machine with 93.41% accuracy is more efficient in the diagnosis of patients with COVID-19 pandemic, which is the best model among other developed models.

<p>Nowadays, fraudulent or deceitful activities associated with financial transactions, predominantly using credit cards have been increasing at an alarming rate and are one of the most prevalent activities in finance industries, corporate companies, and other government organizations. It is therefore essential to incorporate a fraud detection system that mainly consists of intelligent fraud detection techniques to keep in view the consumer and clients’ welfare alike. Numerous fraud detection procedures, techniques, and systems in literature have been implemented by employing a myriad of intelligent techniques including algorithms and frameworks to detect fraudulent and deceitful transactions. This paper initially analyses the data through exploratory data analysis and then proposes various classification models that are implemented using intelligent soft computing techniques to predictively classify fraudulent credit card transactions. Classification algorithms such as K-Nearest neighbor (K-NN), decision tree, random forest (RF), and logistic regression (LR) have been implemented to critically evaluate their performances. The proposed model is computationally efficient, light-weight and can be used for credit card fraudulent transaction detection with better accuracy.</p>

Falls are the major cause of fatal and non-fatal injury among people aged more than 65 years. Due to the grave consequences of the occurrence of falls, it is necessary to conduct thorough research on falls. This paper presents a method for the study of fall detection using surface electromyography (sEMG) based on an improved dual parallel channels convolutional neural network (IDPC-CNN). The proposed IDPC-CNN model is designed to identify falls from daily activities using the spectral features of sEMG. Firstly, the classification accuracy of time domain features and spectrograms are compared using linear discriminant analysis (LDA), k-nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM). Results show that spectrograms provide a richer way to extract pattern information and better classification performance. Therefore, the spectrogram features of sEMG are selected as the input of IDPC-CNN to distinguish between daily activities and falls. Finally, The IDPC-CNN is compared with SVM and three different structure CNNs under the same conditions. Experimental results show that the proposed IDPC-CNN achieves 92.55% accuracy, 95.71% sensitivity and 91.7% specificity. Overall, The IDPC-CNN is more effective than the comparison in accuracy, efficiency, training and generalization.

AbstractIn this paper, we present a system based on feature extraction techniques for detecting abnormal patterns in digital mammograms and thermograms. A comparative study of texture-analysis methods is performed for three image groups: mammograms from the Mammographic Image Analysis Society mammographic database; digital mammograms from the local database; and thermography images of the breast. Also, we present a procedure for the automatic separation of the breast region from the mammograms. Computed features based on gray-level co-occurrence matrices are used to evaluate the effectiveness of textural information possessed by mass regions. A total of 20 texture features are extracted from the region of interest. The ability of feature set in differentiating abnormal from normal tissue is investigated using a support vector machine classifier, Naive Bayes classifier and K-Nearest Neighbor classifier. To evaluate the classification performance, five-fold cross-validation method and receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed.

<p>This paper investigates the capability of six existing classification algorithms (Artificial Neural Network, Naïve Bayes, k-Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machine, Decision Tree and Random Forest) in classifying and predicting diseases in soybean and mushroom datasets using datasets with numerical or categorical attributes. While many similar studies have been conducted on datasets of images to predict plant diseases, the main objective of this study is to suggest classification methods that can be used for disease classification and prediction in datasets that contain raw measurements instead of images. A fungus and a plant dataset, which had many differences, were chosen so that the findings in this paper could be applied to future research for disease prediction and classification in a variety of datasets which contain raw measurements. A key difference between the two datasets, other than one being a fungus and one being a plant, is that the mushroom dataset is balanced and only contained two classes while the soybean dataset is imbalanced and contained eighteen classes. All six algorithms performed well on the mushroom dataset, while the Artificial Neural Network and k-Nearest Neighbor algorithms performed best on the soybean dataset. The findings of this paper can be applied to future research on disease classification and prediction in a variety of dataset types such as fungi, plants, humans, and animals.</p>

Most of the healthcare organizations and medical research institutions store their patient’s data digitally for future references and for planning their future treatments. This heterogeneous medical dataset is very difficult to analyze due to its complexity and volume of data, in addition to having missing values and noise which makes this mining a tedious task. Efficient classification of medical dataset is a major data mining problem then and now. Diagnosis, prediction of diseases and the precision of results can be improved if relationships and patterns from these complex medical datasets are extracted efficiently. This paper analyses some of the major classification algorithms such as C4.5 ( J48), SMO, Naïve Bayes, KNN Classification algorithms and Random Forest and the performance of these algorithms are compared using WEKA. Performance evaluation of these algorithms is based on Accuracy, Sensitivity and Specificity and Error rate. The medical data set used in this study are Heart-Statlog Medical Data Set which holds medical data related to heart disease and Pima Diabetes Dataset which holds data related to Diabetics. This study contributes in finding the most suitable algorithm for classifying medical data and also reveals the importance of preprocessing in improving the classification performance. Comparative study of various performances of machine learning algorithms is done through graphical representation of the results.

The achievement of accepting optimal tax need effective and efficient tax supervision can be achieved by classifying taxpayer compliance to tax regulations. Considering this issue, this paper proposes the classification of taxpayer compliance using data mining algorithms; i.e. C4.5, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Naive Bayes, and Multilayer Perceptron based on the compliance of taxpayer data. The taxpayer compliance can be classified into four classes, which are (1) formal and material compliant taxpayers, (2) formal compliant taxpayers, (3) material compliant taxpayers, and (4) formal and material non-compliant taxpayers. Furthermore, the results of data mining algorithms are compared by using Fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS to determine the best performance classification based on the criteria of Accuracy, F-Score, and Time required. Selection of the taxpayer's priority for more detailed supervision at each level of taxpayer compliance is ranked using Fuzzy AHP and TOPSIS based on criteria of dataset variables. The results show that C4.5 is the best performance classification and achieves preference value of 0.998; whereas the MLP algorithm results from the lowest preference value of 0.131. Alternative taxpayer A233 is the top priority taxpayer with a preference value of 0.433; whereas alternative taxpayer A051 is the lowest priority taxpayer with a preference value of 0.036.
