Home Automation System

The smart home is now an established area of interest and research that contributes to comfort in modern homes. With the Internet being an essential part of broad communication in modern life, IoT has allowed homes to go beyond building to interactive abodes. In many spheres of human life, the IoT has grown exponentially, including monitoring ecological factors, controlling the home and its appliances, and storing data generated by devices in the house in the cloud. Smart home includes multiple components, technologies, and devices that generate valuable data for predicting home and environment activities. This work presents the design and development of a ubiquitous, cloud-based intelligent home automation system. The system controls, monitors, and oversees the security of a home and its environment via an Android mobile application. One module controls and monitors electrical appliances and environmental factors, while another module oversees the home’s security by detecting motion and capturing images. Our work uses a camera to capture images of objects triggered by their motion being detected. To avoid false alarms, we used the concept of machine learning to differentiate between images of regular home occupants and those of an intruder. The support vector machine algorithm is proposed in this study to classify the features of the image captured and determine if it is that of a regular home occupant or an intruder before sending an alarm to the user. The design of the mobile application allows a graphical display of the activities in the house. Our work proves that machine learning algorithms can improve home automation system functionality and enhance home security. The work’s prototype was implemented using an ESP8266 board, an ESP32-CAM board, a 5 V four-channel relay module, and sensors.

Predicting bank failures has been an essential subject in literature due to the significance of the banks for the economic prosperity of a country. Acting as an intermediary player of the economy, banks channel funds between creditors and debtors. In that matter, banks are considered the backbone of the economies; hence, it is important to create early warning systems that identify insolvent banks from solvent ones. Thus, Insolvent banks can apply for assistance and avoid bankruptcy in financially turbulent times. In this paper, we will focus on two different machine learning disciplines: Boosting and Cost-Sensitive methods to predict bank failures. Boosting methods are widely used in the literature due to their better prediction capability. However, Cost-Sensitive Forest is relatively new to the literature and originally invented to solve imbalance problems in software defect detection. Our results show that comparing to the boosting methods, Cost-Sensitive Forest particularly classifies failed banks more accurately. Thus, we suggest using the Cost-Sensitive Forest when predicting bank failures with imbalanced datasets.

Background Multi-omic analysis can identify unique signatures that correlate with cancer subtypes. While clinically meaningful molecular subtypes of AML have been defined based on the status of single genes such as NPM1 and FLT3, such categories remain heterogeneous and further work is needed to characterize their genetic and transcriptomic diversity on a truly individualized basis. Further, patients (pts) with NPM1+/FLT3-ITD- AML have a better overall survival compared to patients with NPM1-/FLT3-ITD+, suggesting that these pts could have different transcriptomic signature that impact phenotype, pathophysiology, and outcomes. Many current transcriptome analytic techniques use clustering analysis to aggregate samples and look at relationships on a cohort-wide basis to build transcriptomic signatures that correlate with phenotype or outcome. Such approaches can undermine the heterogeneity of the gene expression in pts with the same signatures. In this study, we took advantage of state of the art machine learning algorithms to identify unique transcriptomic signatures that correlate with AML genomic phenotype. Methods Genomic (whole exome sequencing and targeted deep sequencing) and transcriptomic data from 451 AML pts included in the Beat AML study (publicly available data) were used to build transcriptomic signatures that are specific for AML patients with NPM1+/FLT3-ITD+ compared to NPM1+/FLT3-ITD, and NPM1-/FLT3-ITD-. We chose these AML phenotypes as they have been described extensively and they correlate with clinical outcomes. Results A total of 242 patients (54%) had NPM1-/FLT3-, 35 (8%) were NPM1+/FLT3-, and 47 (10%) were NPM1+/FLT3+. Our algorithm identified 20 genes that are highly specific for NPM1/FLT3ITD phenotype: HOXB-AS3, SCRN1, LMX1B, PCBD1, DNAJC15, HOXA3, NPTXq, RP11-1055B8, ABDH128, HOXB8, SOCS2, HOXB3, HOXB9, MIR503HG, FAM221B, NRP1, NDUFAF3, MEG3, CCDC136, and HIST1H2BC. Interestingly, several of those genes were overexpressed or underexpressed in specific phenotypes. For example, SCRN1, LMX1B, RP11-1055B8, ABDH128, HOXB8, MIR503HG, NRP1 are only overexpressed or underexpressed in patients with NPM1-/FLT3-, while PCBD1, NDUFAF3, FAM221B are overexpressed or underexpressed in pts with NPM1+/FLT3+. These genes affect several important pathways that regulate cell differentiation, proliferation, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, histone modification and lipid metabolism. All these genes had previously been reported as having altered expression in genomic studies of AML, confirming our approach's ability to identify biologically meaningful relationships. Further, our algorithm can provide a personalized explanation of overexpressed and underexpressed genes specific for a given patient, thus identifying targetable pathways for each pt. Figure 1 below shows three pts with the same genotype (NPM1+/FLT3-ITD+) but demonstrate different transcriptomic patterns of overexpression or underexpression that affect different biological pathways. Conclusions We describe the use of a state of the art explainable machine learning approach to define transcriptomic signatures that are specific for individual pts. In addition to correctly distinguishing AML subtype based on specific transcriptomic signatures, our model was able to accurately identify upregulated and downregulated genes that affecte several important biological pathways in AML and can summarize these pathways at an individual level. Such an approach can be used to provide personalized treatment options that can target the activated pathways at an individual level.

Coronavirus has greatly impacted various aspects of human life, including human psychology & human disposition. In this paper, we attempted to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on human health. We propose Human Disposition Analysis during COVID-19 using machine learning (HuDA_COVID), where factors such as age, employment, addiction, stress level are studied for human disposition analysis. A mass survey is conducted on individuals of various age groups, regions & professions, and the methodology achieved varied accuracy ranges of 87.5% to 98%. The study shows people are worried about lockdown, work & relationships. Furthermore, 23% of the respondents have not had any effect. 45% and 32% have had positive and negative effects, respectively. It is a novel study in human disposition analysis in COVID-19 where a novel weighted assignment indicating the health status is also proposed. HuDA_COVID clearly indicates a need for a methodical approach towards the human psychological needs to help the social organizations formulating holistic interventions for affected individuals.

Organizations increasingly delegate agency to artificial intelligence. However, such systems can yield unintended negative effects as they may produce biases against users or reinforce social injustices. What pronounces them as a unique grand challenge, however, are not their potentially problematic outcomes but their fluid design. Machine learning algorithms are continuously evolving; as a result, their functioning frequently remains opaque to humans. In this article, we apply recent work on tackling grand challenges though robust action to assess the potential and obstacles of managing the challenge of algorithmic opacity. We stress that although this approach is fruitful, it can be gainfully complemented by a discussion regarding the accountability and legitimacy of solutions. In our discussion, we extend the robust action approach by linking it to a set of principles that can serve to evaluate organisational approaches of tackling grand challenges with respect to their ability to foster accountable outcomes under the intricate conditions of algorithmic opacity.

Risk because of heart disease is increasing throughout the world. According to the World Health Organization report, the number of deaths because of heart disease is drastically increasing as compared to other diseases. Multiple factors are responsible for causing heart-related issues. Many approaches were suggested for prediction of heart disease, but none of them were satisfactory in clinical terms. Heart disease therapies and operations available are so costly, and following treatment, heart disease is also costly. This chapter provides a comprehensive survey of existing machine learning algorithms and presents comparison in terms of accuracy, and the authors have found that the random forest classifier is the most accurate model; hence, they are using random forest for further processes. Deployment of machine learning model using web application was done with the help of flask, HTML, GitHub, and Heroku servers. Webpages take input attributes from the users and gives the output regarding the patient heart condition with accuracy of having coronary heart disease in the next 10 years.

Educational Data Mining (EDM) is a rich research field in computer science. Tools and techniques in EDM are useful to predict student performance which gives practitioners useful insights to develop appropriate intervention strategies to improve pass rates and increase retention. The performance of the state-of-the-art machine learning classifiers is very much dependent on the task at hand. Investigating support vector machines has been used extensively in classification problems; however, the extant of literature shows a gap in the application of linear support vector machines as a predictor of student performance. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of linear support vector machines with the performance of the state-of-the-art classical machine learning algorithms in order to determine the algorithm that would improve prediction of student performance. In this quantitative study, an experimental research design was used. Experiments were set up using feature selection on a publicly available dataset of 1000 alpha-numeric student records. Linear support vector machines benchmarked with ten categorical machine learning algorithms showed superior performance in predicting student performance. The results of this research showed that features like race, gender, and lunch influence performance in mathematics whilst access to lunch was the primary factor which influences reading and writing performance.
