Recognising one’s identity to enter a system is called authentication. This process can take various forms where users input the system with a set of identifying credentials to access the system. Signatures belong to behavioural biometric, where the distinct features of every individual are considered in order to corroborate the person’s identity. The act of falsely imitating one’s signature biometric to impersonate and leverage access to their asset is called signature forgery. Our paper presents a comparative study of various deep learning models using Siamese architecture, over a wide catalogue of signature images. Openly available datasets like CEDAR, Handwritten Signatures dataset from Kaggle, ICDAR 2011 SigComp, and BH-Sig260 signature corpus are used to train the models. A set of classifiers – Support Vector Classifiers (SVC), Gaussian Naïve Bayes (GNB), Logistic Regression (LR) and K-Nearest Neighbours (KNN) are applied sequentially to classify the signature as genuine or forged.

Abstract: Alzheimer’s disease is one of the neurodegenerative disorders. It initially starts with innocuous symptoms but gradually becomes severe. This disease is so dangerous because there is no treatment, the disease is detected but typically at a later stage. So it is important to detect Alzheimer at an early stage to counter the disease and for a probable recovery for the patient. There are various approaches currently used to detect symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) at an early stage. The fuzzy system approach is not widely used as it heavily depends on expert knowledge but is quite efficient in detecting AD as it provides a mathematical foundation for interpreting the human cognitive processes. Another more accurate and widely accepted approach is the machine learning detection of AD stages which uses machine learning algorithms like Support Vector Machines (SVMs) , Decision Tree , Random Forests to detect the stage depending on the data provided. The final approach is the Deep Learning approach using multi-modal data that combines image , genetic data and patient data using deep models and then uses the concatenated data to detect the AD stage more efficiently; this method is obscure as it requires huge volumes of data. This paper elaborates on all the three approaches and provides a comparative study about them and which method is more efficient for AD detection. Keywords: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), Fuzzy System , Machine Learning , Deep Learning , Multimodal data

Review ranking is useful to give users a better experience. Review ranking studies commonly use upvote value, which does not represent urgency, and it causes problems in prediction. In contrast, manual labeling as wide as the upvote value range provides a high bias and inconsistency. The proposed solution is to use a classification approach to rank the review where the labels are ordinal urgency class. The experiment involved shallow learning models (Logistic Regression, Naïve Bayesian, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest), and deep learning models (LSTM and CNN). In constructing a classification model, the problem is broken down into several binary classifications that predict tendencies of urgency depending on the separation of classes. The result shows that deep learning models outperform other models in classification dan ranking evaluation. In addition, the review data used tend to contain vocabulary of certain product domains, so further research is needed on data with more diverse vocabulary.

The phenomenon of phishing has now been a common threat, since many individuals and webpages have been observed to be attacked by phishers. The common purpose of phishing activities is to obtain user’s personal information for illegitimate usage. Considering the growing intensity of the issue, this study is aimed at developing a new hybrid rule-based solution by incorporating six different algorithm models that may efficiently detect and control the phishing issue. The study incorporates 37 features extracted from six different methods including the black listed method, lexical and host method, content method, identity method, identity similarity method, visual similarity method, and behavioral method. Furthermore, comparative analysis was undertaken between different machine learning and deep learning models which includes CART (decision trees), SVM (support vector machines), or KNN ( K -nearest neighbors) and deep learning models such as MLP (multilayer perceptron) and CNN (convolutional neural networks). Findings of the study indicated that the method was effective in analysing the URL stress through different viewpoints, leading towards the validity of the model. However, the highest accuracy level was obtained for deep learning with the given values of 97.945 for the CNN model and 93.216 for the MLP model, respectively. The study therefore concludes that the new hybrid solution must be implemented at a practical level to reduce phishing activities, due to its high efficiency and accuracy.

Sentiment analysis is one of the new absorbing parts appeared in natural language processing with the emergence of community sites on the web. Taking advantage of the amount of information now available, research and industry have been seeking ways to automatically analyze the sentiments expressed in texts. The challenge for this task is the human language ambiguity, and also the lack of labeled data. In order to solve this issue, sentiment analysis and deep learning have been merged as deep learning models are effective due to their automatic learning capability. In this paper, we provide a comparative study on IMDB movie review dataset, we compare word embeddings and further deep learning models on sentiment analysis and give broad empirical outcomes for those keen on taking advantage of deep learning for sentiment analysis in real-world settings.
