The Internet is a major source of online news content. Current efforts to evaluate online news content including text, storyline, and sources is limited by the use of small-scale manual techniques that are time consuming and dependent on human judgments. This article explores the use of machine learning algorithms and mathematical techniques for Internet-scale data mining and semantic discovery of news content that will enable researchers to mine, analyze, and visualize large-scale datasets. This research has the potential to inform the integration and application of data mining to address real-world socio-environmental issues, including water insecurity in the Southwestern United States. This paper establishes a formal definition of framing and proposes an approach for the discovery of distinct patterns that characterize prominent frames. The authors' experimental evaluation shows the proposed process is an effective approach for advancing semi-supervised machine learning and may assist in advancing tools for making sense of unstructured text.

Student Failure

Student Performance Management is one of the key pillars of the higher education institutions since it directly impacts the student’s career prospects and college rankings. This paper follows the path of learning analytics and educational data mining by applying machine learning techniques in student data for identifying students who are at the more likely to fail in the university examinations and thus providing needed interventions for improved student performance. The Paper uses data mining approach with 10 fold cross validation to classify students based on predictors which are demographic and social characteristics of the students. This paper compares five popular machine learning algorithms Rep Tree, Jrip, Random Forest, Random Tree, Naive Bayes algorithms based on overall classifier accuracy as well as other class specific indicators i.e. precision, recall, f-measure. Results proved that Rep tree algorithm outperformed other machine learning algorithms in classifying students who are at more likely to fail in the examinations.

Phishing is a common attack on credulous people by making them disclose their unique information. It is a type of cyber-crime where false sites allure exploited people to give delicate data. This paper deals with methods for detecting phishing websites by analyzing various features of URLs by Machine learning techniques. This experimentation discusses the methods used for detection of phishing websites based on lexical features, host properties and page importance properties. We consider various data mining algorithms for evaluation of the features in order to get a better understanding of the structure of URLs that spread phishing. To protect end users from visiting these sites, we can try to identify the phishing URLs by analyzing their lexical and host-based features.A particular challenge in this domain is that criminals are constantly making new strategies to counter our defense measures. To succeed in this contest, we need Machine Learning algorithms that continually adapt to new examples and features of phishing URLs.

Rules Of The Game

All these types of analytics have been answering business questions for a long time about the principal methods of investigating data warehouses. Especially data mining and business intelligence systems support decision makers to reach the information they want. Many existing systems are trying to keep up with a phenomenon that has changed the rules of the game in recent years. This is undoubtedly the undeniable attraction of 'big data'. In particular, the issue of evaluating the big data generated especially by social media is among the most up-to-date issues of business analytics, and this issue demonstrates the importance of integrating machine learning into business analytics. This section introduces the prominent machine learning algorithms that are increasingly used for business analytics and emphasizes their application areas.

Disease Rates

Skin disease rates have been increasing over the past few decades. It has led to both fatal and non-fatal disabilities all around the world, especially in those areas where medical resources are not good enough. Early diagnosis of skin diseases increases the chances of cure significantly. Therefore, this work is comparing six machine learning algorithms, namely KNN, random forest, neural network, naïve bayes, logistic regression, and SVM, for the prediction of the skin diseases. The information gain, gain ratio, gini decrease, chi-square, and relieff are used to rank the features. This work comprises the introduction, literature review, and proposed methodology parts. In this research paper, a new method of analyzing skin disease has been proposed in which six different data mining techniques are used to develop an ensemble method that integrates all the six data mining techniques as a single one. The ensemble method used on the dermatology dataset gives improved result with 94% accuracy in comparison to other classifier algorithms and hence is more effective in this area.

Do So

In today's scenario all of data is being generated by everyone of us . so it becomes vital for us to handle this data. To do so new technologies are being developed such as machine learning, data mining etc. This paper gives the study related to machine learning(ML).Precise approximations are repetitively being produced by Machine Learning algorithms. Machine learning system effectively “learns” how to guess from training set of completed jobs. The main purpose of the review is to give a jagged estimate or overview about the mostly used algorithms in machine learning.
