Abstract: Monotonic classification is a widely applied classification task where improvements in specific input values do not lead to worse outputs. Monotonic classifiers based on K-nearest neighbors (KNN) have become crucial tools for addressing such tasks. However, these models share drawbacks with traditional KNN classifiers, including high computational complexity and sensitivity to noise. Fuzzy Monotonic K-Nearest Neighbors (FMKNN) is currently the state-of-the-art KNN-based monotonic classifier, mitigating the impact of noise to some extent. Nevertheless, there is still room for improvement in reducing computational complexity and softening monotonicity in FMKNN. In this paper, we propose a prototype selection algorithm based on FMKNN, …named Condensed Fuzzy Monotonic K-Nearest Neighbors (C -FMKNN). This algorithm achieves a dynamic balance between monotonicity and test accuracy by constructing a joint evaluation function that combines fuzzy ranking conditional entropy and correct prediction. Data reduction and simplifying computations can be achieved by using C -FMKNN to filter out instance subsets under the adaptive dynamic balance between monotonicity and test accuracy. Extensive experiments show that the proposed C -FMKNN improves significantly in terms of ACCU, MAE and NMI compared with the involved KNN-based non-monotonic algorithms and non-KNN monotonic algorithms. Compared with the instance selection algorithms MCNN, MENN, and MONIPS, C -FMKNN improves the average values of ACCU, MAE, and NMI by 3.7%, 3.6% and 18.3%, respectively, on the relevant datasets. In particular, compared with the benchmark algorithm FMKNN, C -FMKNN achieves an average data reduction rate of 58.74% while maintaining or improving classification accuracy. Show more

Abstract: Deep learning-based models are employed in computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) tools development for pediatric pneumonia (P-Pneumonia) detection. The accuracy of the model depends on the scaling of the deep learning model. A survey on deep learning shows that models with a greater number of layers achieve better performances for P-Pneumonia detection. However, the identification of the optimal models is considered to be important work for P-Pneumonia detection. This work presents a hybrid deep learning model for P-Pneumonia detection. The model leverages the EfficientNetV2 model that employs various advanced methodologies to maintain the balance between the model scaling and the performance of …the model in P-Pneumonia detection. The features of EfficientNetV2 models are passed into global weighted average pooling (GWAP) which acts like an attention layer. It helps to extract the important features that point to the infected regions of the radiography image and discard all the unimportant information. The features from GWAP are high in dimension and using kernel-based principal component analysis (K-PCA), the features were reduced. Next, the reduced features are combined together and passed into a stacked classifier. The stacked classifier is a two-stage approach in which the first stage employs a support vector machine (SVM) and random forest tree (RFT) for the prediction of P-Pneumonia using the fused features and logistic regression (LRegr) on values of prediction for classification. Detailed experiments were done for the proposed method in P-Pneumonia detection using publically available benchmark datasets. Various settings in the experimental analysis are done to identify the best model. The proposed model outperformed the other methods by improving the accuracy by 4% in P-Pneumonia detection. To show that the proposed model is robust, the model performances were shown on the completely unseen dataset of P-Pneumonia. The hybrid deep learning-based P-Pneumonia model showed good performance on completely unseen data samples of P-Pneumonia patients. The generalization of the proposed P-Pneumonia model is studied by evaluating the model on similar lung diseases such as COVID-19 (CV-19) and Tuberculosis (TBS). In all the experiments, the P-Pneumonia model has shown good performances on similar lung diseases. This indicates that the model is robust and generalizable on data samples of different patients with similar lung diseases. The P-Pneumonia models can be used in healthcare and clinical environments to assist doctors and healthcare professionals in improving the detection rate of P-Pneumonia. Show more

Abstract: Semi-supervised learning (SSL) aims to reduce reliance on labeled data. Achieving high performance often requires more complex algorithms, therefore, generic SSL algorithms are less effective when it comes to image classification tasks. In this study, we propose ComMatch, a simpler and more effective algorithm that combines negative learning, dynamic thresholding, and predictive stability discriminations into the consistency regularization approach. The introduction of negative learning is to help facilitate training by selecting negative pseudo-labels during stages when the network has low confidence. And ComMatch filters positive and negative pseudo-labels more accurately as training progresses by dynamic thresholds. Since high confidence does …not always mean high accuracy due to network calibration issues, we also introduce network predictive stability, which filters out samples by comparing the standard deviation of the network output with a set threshold, thus largely reducing the influence of noise in the training process. ComMatch significantly outperforms existing algorithms over several datasets, especially when there is less labeled data available. For example, ComMatch achieves 1.82% and 3.6% error rate reduction over FlexMatch and FixMatch on CIFAR-10 with 40 labels respectively. And with 4000 labeled samples, ComMatch achieves 0.54% and 2.65% lower error rates than FixMatch and MixMatch, respectively. Show more

Abstract: In the process of production, the label on the product provides the basic product information. Due to the complex text contained on the product labels, the high accuracy recognition for online production labels has always been a challenging problem. To address this issue, a more effective method for complex text detection by improving the convolutional recurrent neural network has been proposed to enhance the recognition accuracy of complex text. Firstly, the SE-DenseNet feature extraction network has been introduced for feature extraction, aiming to improve the model’s depth and feature extraction capacity. Then, the Bi-GRU network is utilized to learn and …model the hidden states and spatial features extracted by SE-DenseNet, anticipate preliminary sequence results, reduce model parameters, and improve the model’s calculation performance. Finally, the CTC network is employed for transcription to convert each feature sequence prediction output by Bi-GRU into a label sequence, achieving complex text recognition. Experimental results on the SVT, IIIT-5K, ICDAR2013 public dataset, and a self-built dataset demonstrate that the proposed model achieves superior outcomes on both public and self-built datasets. Remarkably, the model exhibits the highest recognition accuracy of 93.2% on the ICDAR2013 public dataset, demonstrating its potential to support complex text recognition for online production labels.

Abstract: This paper investigates the potential of COVID-19 detection using cough, breathing, and voice patterns. Speech-based features, such as MFCC, zero crossing rate, spectral centroid, spectral bandwidth, and chroma STFT are extracted from audio recordings and evaluated for their effectiveness in identifying COVID-19 cases from Coswara dataset. The explainable AI SHAP tool is employed which identified MFCC, zero crossing rate, and spectral bandwidth as the most influential features. Data augmentation techniques like random sampling, SMOTE, Tomek, and Edited Nearest Neighbours (ENN), are applied to improve the performance of various machine learning models used viz. Naive Bayes, K-nearest neighbours, support vector machines, …XGBoost, and Random Forest. Selecting the top 20 features achieves an accuracy of 73%, a precision of 74%, a recall of 94%, and an F1-score of 83% using the Random Forest model with the Tomek sampling technique. These findings demonstrate that a carefully selected subset of features can achieve comparable performance to the entire feature set while maintaining a high recall rate. The success of the Tomek undersampling technique highlights the ability of model to handle sparse clinical data and predict COVID-19 and associated diseases using speech-based features. Show more

Abstract: Prefabricated buildings (PBs) are a new type of building construction, which are less time-consuming and cause low environmental pollution and resource consumption. They play an important role in industrialized construction and clean production and have gained worldwide attention. However, the high construction costs have become a major obstacle to their popularity and application. This study investigates the factors influencing construction costs of PBs in China using a systematic literature review (SLR), fuzzy interpretive structure modeling (fuzzy ISM), and the Matrice d’Impacts croises-multiplication appliqué an classment (MICMAC) technique. First, 32 influencing factors were identified from the SLR. Second, out of which …16 critical factors were selected and mapped in a hierarchical model through semi-structured interview screening, and the MICMAC technique was used to classify the cost-influencing factors of PBs into different categories. The results revealed that all identified factors played pivotal roles in various capacities and influenced the cost of PB construction. This study may assist administrators and policymakers in better understanding the factors that influence the costs of PBs construction to manage and reduce them. Show more

Abstract: The automatic generation of natural language is a complex and essential task in text processing. This study proposes a novel approach to address this fundamental problem by leveraging an improved version of DST_BERT, a model that converts input text into a vector representation. Our key contribution lies in the joint optimization of two models, NLU (Natural Language Under-standing) and NLG (Natural Language Generation), which enables us to obtain variable representations within a hidden space. This integration enhances the capabilities of both NLU and NLG in generating coherent and contextually appropriate language. The NLU and NLG …models are seamlessly integrated with the hidden variable space, forming a generative representation model. To assess the effectiveness of our proposed approach, we conducted extensive experiments on the E2E and Weather datasets. The results highlight the state-of-the-art performance achieved by our model in generating natural language. Show more

Abstract: Molecular graph representation learning has been widely applied in various domains such as drug design. It leverages deep learning techniques to transform molecular graphs into numerical vectors. Graph Transformer architecture is commonly used for molecular graph representation learning. Nevertheless, existing methods based on the Graph Transformer fail to fully exploit the topological structural information of the molecular graphs, leading to information loss for molecular representation. To solve this problem, we propose a novel molecular graph representation learning method called MTS-Net (Molecular Topological Structure-Network), which combines both global and local topological structure of a molecule. In global topological representation, the molecule …graph is first transformed into a tree structure and then encoded by employing a hash algorithm for tree. In local topological representation, paths between atom pairs are transcoded and incorporated into the calculation of the Transformer attention coefficients. Moreover, MTS-Net has intuitive interpretability for identifying key structures within molecules. Experiments on eight molecular property prediction datasets show that MTS-Net achieves optimal results in three out of five classification tasks, the average accuracy is 0.85, and all three regression tasks.

Abstract: With the rapid economic development and increasingly serious environmental problems, many regions have launched green credit policies. Green credit can reduce the loan interest rate of the environmental protection industry and lower the financing threshold. Traditional risk prediction methods cannot comprehensively evaluate the green credit risk of the enterprise based on the degree of green environmental protection and the industry environment in which the enterprise is located, resulting in the inconsistency between the credit financial risk prediction and the actual results, which increases the bank credit risk. In order to strengthen the management level of green credit and reduce the …probability of non-performing loans, a scientific risk assessment method was constructed by using a combination of automatic encoding network and bidirectional long short-term memory neural network model to predict the financial risks of green credit, driven by multi-modal data. Through the study of multimodal data, this paper took green credit financial risk as the research object, aggregated the information of various enterprises to improve the bank’s capital utilization rate, and also promoted enterprises to take the initiative to transform into the direction of green environmental protection. Finally, the experiment proved that multimodal data fusion model was more superior than random forest in risk prediction, reducing the bank’s non-performing loan rate by 3.1% and improving the bank’s risk control level.

Abstract: Due to its remarkable performance, the convolutional neural network (CNN) has gained widespread usage in image inpainting challenges. However, most of these CNN-based methods reconstruct images only in the spatial domain, which produces satisfactory outcomes for small-region inpainting tasks, but blurs the details and generates incomplete structures for large-region inpainting tasks with complex backgrounds. In this paper, we address the issue of large-region inpainting tasks by our novel Adaptive Fourier Neural Network . Specifically, in our network, a Fourier-based global receptive field module is introduced to incorporate frequency information and expand the receptive field by transforming local convolutions into …global convolutions, enabling the proposed network to transmit global information to the missing region. Furthermore, to better fuse spatial and frequency features, an attention-based joint space-frequency module is proposed to combine spatial and frequency information. Finally, to validate the effectiveness and robustness of our proposed method, we conduct qualitative and quantitative experiments on two popular datasets Paris StreetView and Places. The experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods by generating sharper, more coherent, and visually plausible inpainting results.

Abstract: China has emerged as one of the nations with the worst air pollution in recent years. The severe air pollution has caused a large number of population migration and also caused serious economic problems. Since the concentration of air pollutants can change quickly in a short amount of time, the study first tracked PM2.5 , PM10 , NO2 , CO, SO2 , and O3 as targets before using the particle swarm optimization algorithm to improve the PIO algorithm, which is based on the traditional pigeon swarm algorithm. To estimate the concentration of air pollutants, combine the wavelet packet decomposition …technique, MDS visualization method, and k-means algorithm. Then, apply the enhanced PIO algorithm to optimize the ELM algorithm.

To overcome this, a single optimized machine-learning approach is proposed in this paper to analyze the factors that affect the education. This analysis helps the faculty to enhance their teaching methodology and understand the student’s mentality toward education. The proposed Hybrid Cuckoo search-particle swarm optimization was implemented on three datasets to determine the factors that affect the education. These optimal factors are determined by identifying their relations to the final results of an individual person. All these optimal factors are combined and grades are grouped to analyze the proposed optimization process performance using regression neural network. The proposed optimization-based neural network was tested on three data models and its performance analysis showed that the proposed model can achieve higher accuracy of 99% that affects the individual education. This shows that the proposed model can help the faculty to enhance their attention to the students individually. Show more

Abstract: In the expansive domain of data-driven research, the curse of dimensionality poses challenges such as increased computational complexity, noise sensitivity, and the risk of overfitting models. Dimensionality reduction is vital to handle high-dimensional datasets effectively. The pilot study disease dataset (PSD) with 53 features contains patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Osteoarthritis (OA). Our work aims to reduce the dimension of the features in the PSD dataset, identify a suitable feature selection technique for the reduced-dimensional dataset, analyze an appropriate Machine Learning (ML) model, select significant features to predict the RA and OA disease and reveal significant features that predict …the arthritis disease. The proposed study, Progressive Feature Reduction with Varied Missing Data (PFRVMD), was employed to reduce the dimension of features by using PCA loading scores in the random value imputed PSD dataset. Subsequently, notable feature selection methods, such as backward feature selection, the Boruta algorithm, the extra tree classifier, and forward feature selection, were implemented on the reduced-dimensional feature set. The significant features/biomarkers are obtained from the best feature selection technique. ML models such as the K-Nearest Neighbour Classifier (KNNC), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), Logistic Regression (LR), Naïve Bayes Classifier (NBC), Random Forest Classifier (RFC) and Support Vector Classifier (SVC) are used to determine the best feature selection method. The results indicated that the Extra Tree Classifier (ETC) is the promising feature selection method for the PSD dataset because the significant features obtained from ETC depicted the highest accuracy on SVC.

Abstract: By anticipating system defect-prone units, software-developing businesses aim to increase the quality of software. Despite the development of numerous Data Mining (DM) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques in the Software Defect Prediction (SDP) field, dealing with the uncertainty of datasets persists due to noise, data distribution, class overlapping, proposed model parameters, and old data.

To overcome this limitation, a model-based hybridization of Ant Colony Optimization-inspired Fuzzy Rough Feature Selection (FRAC) followed by adapting the parameters of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) with a novel algorithm called …Turbulent Flow of Water Optimization (TFWO) is recommended. The proposed model (FRAC+TFWANFIS) performed better than contemporary literature and other optimization algorithms in SDP, such as Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Differential Evolution (DE), ANFIS, Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Genetic Algorithm (GA). Also, the performance of the proposed model is superior to that of other conventional classification techniques such as Naïve Bayes (NB), Logistic Regression (LR), Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Fuzzy Rough Nearest Neighbor (FRNN), Fuzzy Nearest Neighbor (FNN), Bagging, C4.5, Random Forest (RF), and K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN).

Abstract: Online monitoring of cutting tools wear is an important component of advanced manufacturing technology, which can greatly improve the processing efficiency and reduce the production cost. In this paper, a cutting tools wear state prediction method based on acoustic imaging recognition is developed. By applying the advantages of the functional generalized inverse beamforming method in the sound field reconstruction, the acoustic signal is used as the carrier to reconstruct the three-dimensional space radiated sound field. And then, slice the reconstructed sound field image and input it into the convolutional neural network model as a sample, to process and classify the …image and mines the feature information related to state from the sound field image. By incorporating amplitude and phase information of the sound field, the presented method utilizes spatial domain mapping to accurately identify the noise source and address challenges such as low recognition rate and difficult diagnosis under weak fault conditions. Furthermore, the paper also demonstrates the recognition of sound field states through a fault experiment in sound box simulation, based on these theories. And the recognition of sound field states is achieved through a simulation fault experiment conducted on the sound box, thereby validating the feasibility of the state monitoring method based on pattern recognition of sound and image. Finally, the experimental object is selected as the four-edge carbide milling cutter, and the cutting tools wear state is monitored by integrating sound field reconstruction techniques with convolution feature extraction methods to validate the robustness of the proposed approach.

Abstract: Health assessment is one of the important theoretical bases for deciding whether the diversion tunnel can operate safely and stably. A project of the TBM diversion tunnel is taken as the research object to ensure the normal operation of the diversion tunnel. Based on measured data and considering multiple safety aspects such as structural response, durability, and external factors of the diversion tunnel, a TBM diversion tunnel structural health evaluation index system is established. A new method for the TBM diversion tunnel structural health comprehensive evaluation based on Analytic Hierarchy Process-Matter Element Extension-Variable Weight Theory (AMV) is proposed to explore …the impact of AMV fluctuation with the measured results of the indicators on the weight, closeness, and health grade of each evaluation index. The high sensitivity and high-risk evaluation indicators for the structural health of the diversion tunnels are identified. It is found that the variable weight varies with the changes in various indicator values, which can accurately evaluate the health status of tunnels in real-time. The characteristic values of the tunnel grade calculated by the AHP and the AMV are 1.589 and 1.695, respectively. The results of the corresponding interval diversion tunnel are the basic safety state of grade B. Except for the two evaluation indicators of concrete strength and slurry properties, the variable weight values and grade characteristic values of other evaluation indicators increase with the increase of indicator values. The four indicators of segment settlement, segment opening, segment misalignment, and segment cracks are more sensitive to the health of the TBM diversion tunnel. This AMV can accurately evaluate the health status of the diversion tunnel structure. The research results can provide references for later maintenance work and similar projects. Show more

Abstract: Accurate prediction of short-term electricity price is the key to obtain economic benefit and also an important index of power system planning and management. Support vector regression (SVR) based ensemble works have gained remarkable achievements in terms of high accuracy and steady performance, but they are highly dependent on data representativeness and have a high computational complexity O (k * N 3 ) of data samples and parameter selection. To further improve the data representativeness and reduce its computational complexity, this paper develops a new approach to forecast electricity price via optimal weighted ensemble. In the model, the cluster-based subsampling …algorithm is proposed to categorize the inputs being seasonally decomposed into several groups, and representative data are drawn from each group in a certain proportion to ensure that each subset trained with SVR has the same representativeness and features. Moreover, the optimal weighted combination method is presented to assign weights to the sub-SVRs to obtain the optimal support vector regression ensemble model (OWSSVRE). The experimental results show that the improved support vector regression ensemble model with the same features and representativeness of the subset has better performance in electricity price forecasting. As a result, it is suitable to support decision making in the energy and other sectors. Show more

Abstract: The Internet of Things and Quantum Computing raise concerns, as Quantum IoT defines security that exploits quantum security management in IoT. The security of IoT is a significant concern for ensuring secure communications that must be appropriately protected to address key distribution challenges and ensure high security during data transmission. Therefore, in the critical context of IoT environments, secure data aggregation can provide access privileges for accessing network services. "Most data aggregation schemes achieve high computational efficiency; however, the cryptography mechanism faces challenges in finding a solution for the expected security desecration, especially with the advent of quantum computers utilizing …public-key cryptosystems despite these limitations. In this paper, the Secure Data Aggregation using Quantum Key Management scheme, named SDA-QKM, employs public-key encryption to enhance the security level of data aggregation. The proposed system introduces traceability and stability checks for the keys to detect adversaries during the data aggregation process, providing efficient security and reducing authentication costs. Here the performance has been evaluated by comparing it with existing competing schemes in terms of data aggregation. The results demonstrate that SDA-QKM offers a robust security analysis against various threats, protecting privacy, authentication, and computation efficiency at a lower computational cost and communication overhead than existing systems.

Abstract: Medical short text classification is of great significance to medical information extraction and medical auxiliary diagnosis. However, medical short texts face challenges such as sparse features, semantic ambiguity, and the specialized nature of the medical field, resulting in relatively low accuracy in short text classification. Taking into consideration the characteristics of medical short texts, this paper proposes a Chinese medical short text classification model based on DPECNN. First, ERNIE is utilized to learn text knowledge and information in order to enhance the model’s semantic representation capabilities. Then, the DPECNN model is employed to extract rich feature information, and the classification …results are generated through a fully connected layer. In the case of DPCNN, it only considers deep-level contextual semantic information, overlooking the correlation of adjacent semantic information between channels. To address this, ECA channel attention is introduced to account for adjacent semantic information. The use of a self-normalizing activation function helps avoid the problem of vanishing gradients. To enhance the model’s robustness and generalization ability, the FGM adversarial training algorithm is employed to perturb the data. The F1 values achieved on the THUCNews, KUAKE-QIC, and CHIP-CTC datasets are 95.00%, 79.45%, and 82.81%, respectively. Show more

Abstract: The Hilbert spectrum images of intrinsic mode functions (IMF) of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) analysis and variational mode decomposition (VMD) analysis of faulty machine vibration signals are used in deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) for machine fault classification in which the DCNN automatically learns the features from spectral images using convolution layer. Though both EMD and VMD analysis suit well for non-stationary signal analysis, VMD has the merit of aliasing free IMFs. In this paper, the performance improvement of DCNN classification for a non-stationary vibration signal dataset using VMD is brought out. The numerical experiment uses the Hilbert spectrum images …of 4 EMD-IMFs and 4 VMD-IMFs in DCNN to classify 10 different faults of the Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) bearing dataset. The confusion matrices are obtained and the plot of model accuracies in terms of epochs for the DCNN is analysed. It is shown that the spectrum images of one of the four EMD-IMFs, IMF0 , give a validation accuracy of 100% and in the case of VMD the spectrum images of two of the four VMD-IMFs, IMF0 , and IMF1 give a validation accuracy of 100%. This reveals that non-aliasing IMFs of VMD are better at classifying bearing faults. Further to bring out the merits of VMD analysis for non-stationary signals the numerical experiment is conducted using VMD analysis for binary fault classification of the milling dataset which is more non-stationary than the bearing dataset which is proved by plotting the statistical parameters of both datasets against time. It is found that the DCNN classification is 100% accurate for IMF3 of VMD analysis which is much better than the 81% accuracy provided by EMD analysis as per existing literature. The performance comparison highlights the merits of VMD analysis over EMD analysis and other state-of-the-art methods and ensemble learning methods. Show more

Abstract: Software Defined Networking (SDN) proposes a centralized network paradigm where a central controller manages the network. While this centralizes scheme opens up previously unachievable opportunities, it also makes the network more susceptible to a varying range of cyber threats. The development of effective Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) designed for the SDN topology is a critical need to address the different vulnerabilities SDN faces. Towards that purpose, the inSDN dataset was specifically curated for intrusion detection in SDN with various attack scenarios unique to the SDN topology. This study leveraged the inSDN dataset to introduce an innovative Intrusion Detection …System (IDS) model that amalgamates Principal Component Analysis (PCA), a dimensionality reduction technique widely employed in traditional Machine Learning (ML) to extract the principal features of the dataset and couples it with Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) to classify network traffic based on the extracted features. The proposed model attains an exceptional accuracy rate of 99.95% for multi-class classification and demonstrate that it surpasses the current state-of-the-art techniques while operating within a much simpler framework. This significantly diminishes the necessity for complex models that demand extensive computational resources when dealing with the inSDN attack dataset. The analysis of the dataset carried out in this study also provides insights into the redundancy present in the dataset and identifies the core features that contains most of the information in the dataset.

Abstract: The influenza virus can spread easily, causing significant public health concern. Despite the existence of different techniques for rapid detection and prevention of influenza, their efficiency varies significantly. Additionally, there is currently a lack of a comprehensive, interoperable, and reusable real-time model for detecting influenza infection and predicting relationships within the field of influenza analysis. This study proposed a comprehensive, real-time model for rapid and early influenza detection using symptoms. Further, new relationships in the influenza field were discovered. Multiple data sources were used for the influenza knowledge graph (KG).

Abstract: In this work, the image block matching based on dissimilarity measure is investigated. Moreover, an unsupervised approach is implemented to yield that the algorithms have low complexity (in numbers of operations) compared to the full search algorithm. The state-of-the-art experiments only use discrete cosine transform as a domain transform. In addition, some images were tested to evaluate the algorithms. However, these images were not evaluated according to specific characteristics. So, in this paper, an improved version is presented to tackle the problem of dissimilarity measure in block matching with a noisy environment, using another’s domain transforms or low-pass filters to …obtain a better result in block matching implementing a quantitive measure with an average accuracy margin of ± 0.05 is obtained. The theoretical analysis indicates that the complexity of these algorithms is still accurate, so implementing Hadamard spectral coefficients and Fourier filters can easily be adjusted to obtain a better accuracy of the matched block group.

Abstract: In today’s data-rich era, there is a growing need for developing effective similarity and dissimilarity measures to compare vast datasets. It is desirable that these measures reflect the intrinsic structure of the domain of these measures. Recently, it was shown that the space of finite probability distributions has a symmetric structure generated by involutive negation mapping probability distributions into their “opposite” probability distributions and back, such that the correlation between opposite distributions equals –1. An important property of similarity and dissimilarity functions reflecting such symmetry of probability distribution space is the co-symmetry of these functions when the similarity between probability …distributions is equal to the similarity between their opposite distributions. This article delves into the analysis of five well-known dissimilarity functions, used for creating new co-symmetric dissimilarity functions. To conduct this study, a random dataset of one thousand probability distributions is employed. From these distributions, dissimilarity matrices are generated that are used to determine correlations similarity between different dissimilarity functions. The hierarchical clustering is applied to better understand the relationships between the studied dissimilarity functions. This methodology aims to identify and assess the dissimilarity functions that best match the characteristics of the studied probability distribution space, enhancing our understanding of data relationships and patterns. The study of these new measures offers a valuable perspective for analyzing and interpreting complex data, with the potential to make a significant impact in various fields and applications.

Abstract: Recently, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) using aggregating neighborhood collaborative information have shown effectiveness in recommendation. However, GNNs-based models suffer from over-smoothing and data sparsity problems. Due to its self-supervised nature, contrastive learning has gained considerable attention in the field of recommendation, aiming at alleviating highly sparse data. Graph contrastive learning models are widely used to learn the consistency of representations by constructing different graph augmentation views. Most current graph augmentation with random perturbation destroy the original graph structure information, which mislead embeddings learning. In this paper, an effective graph contrastive learning paradigm CollaGCL is proposed, which constructs graph augmentation by …using singular value decomposition to preserve crucial structure information. CollaGCL enables perturbed views to effectively capture global collaborative information, mitigating the negative impact of graph structural perturbations. To optimize the contrastive learning task, the extracted meta-knowledge was propagate throughout the original graph to learn reliable embedding representations. The self-information learning between views enhances the semantic information of nodes, thus alleviating the problem of over-smoothing. Experimental results on three real-world datasets demonstrate the significant improvement of CollaGCL over state-of-the-art methods. Show more

Abstract: Precise video moment retrieval is crucial for enabling users to locate specific moments within a large video corpus. This paper presents Interactive Moment Localization with Multimodal Fusion (IMF-MF), a novel interactive moment localization with multimodal fusion model that leverages the power of self-attention to achieve state-of-the-art performance. IMF-MF effectively integrates query context and multimodal features, including visual and audio information, to accurately localize moments of interest. The model operates in two distinct phases: feature fusion and joint representation learning. The first phase dynamically calculates fusion weights for adapting the combination of multimodal video content, ensuring that the most relevant features …are prioritized. The second phase employs bi-directional attention to tightly couple video and query features into a unified joint representation for moment localization. This joint representation captures long-range dependencies and complex patterns, enabling the model to effectively distinguish between relevant and irrelevant video segments. The effectiveness of IMF-MF is demonstrated through comprehensive evaluations on three benchmark datasets: TVR for closed-world TV episodes and Charades for open-world user-generated videos, DiDeMo dataset, Open-world, diverse video moment retrieval dataset. The empirical results indicate that the proposed approach surpasses existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of retrieval accuracy, as evaluated by metrics like Recall (R1, R5, R10, and R100) and Intersection-of-Union (IoU). The results consistently demonstrate IMF-MF’s superior performance compared to existing state-of-the-art methods, highlighting the benefits of its innovative interactive moment localization approach and the use of self-attention for feature representation and attention modeling.

Abstract: Anomaly detection, a critical aspect of data analysis and cybersecurity, aims to identify unusual patterns that deviate from the expected norm. In this study, we propose a hybrid approach that combines the strengths of Autoencoder neural networks and Multiclass Support Vector Machines (SVM) for robust anomaly detection. The Autoencoder is utilized for feature learning and extraction, capturing intricate patterns in the data, while the Multiclass SVM provides a discriminative classification mechanism to distinguish anomalies from normal patterns. Specifically, the Autoencoder is trained on normal data to acquire a compact and efficient representation of the underlying patterns, with the reconstruction errors …serving as indicative measures of anomalies. Concurrently, a Multiclass SVM is trained to classify instances into multiple classes, including an anomaly class. The anomaly scores from the Autoencoder and the decision function of the Multiclass SVM, along with that of the Random Forest Neural Network (AE-RFNN), are combined, leveraging their complementary strengths. A thresholding mechanism is then employed to classify instances as normal or anomalous based on the combined scores. The performance of the hybrid model is evaluated using standard metrics such as precision, recall, F1-score, and the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. The proposed hybrid anomaly detection approach demonstrates effectiveness in capturing complex patterns and discerning anomalies across diverse datasets. Additionally, the model offers flexibility for adaptation to evolving data distributions. This study contributes to the advancement of anomaly detection methodologies by presenting a hybrid solution that combines feature learning and discriminative classification for improved accuracy and generalization.

Abstract: With the increasing demand for tourism, people’s travel modes are more and more diversified, and the tourism recommendation system also arises at the historical juncture. However, the current recommendation system is only recommended for a single user and does not realize the group travel recommendation. To achieve the goal of recommending its preferred attractions for multiple users, the time decay characteristics and Pearson correlation coefficient in Newton’s cooling law are used to obtain the user similarity with spatial distance factor and temporal decay factor and to obtain the score prediction results based on spatiotemporal fusion. In addition, the trust of …user communication is used to recommend, and the weights of the two scoring results are added to obtain the personalized recommendation results of member users. Finally, the study used the fusion strategy to integrate the personalized recommendation results for group preference and obtained the final group travel recommendation list. Therefore, a group travel recommendation model based on spatio-temporal integration factors was constructed. According to the experimental analysis, we can see that the average HR value of the constructed model is 0.8124, and the average NDCG value is 0.7284, which can accurately judge users’ preferences and get the most suitable group travel recommendation results, thus facilitating users to make the next plan for the tourism project.

Abstract: The convergence of visual communication design with unique effects, graphic design, as well as virtual reality, which is becoming progressively more popular, has created a new paradigm for education in recent years. However, emerging evidence indicates that their integration into the world of learning is a somewhat gradual and intricate process. The present research proposes a novel algorithm and a functional model of artificial intelligence technology design to automatically arrange graphic language in visual communication design. In visual communication design, the goal orchestration function used to determine the display size of buffer images is the difference between the minimum and …maximum values of the number of orchestration screens. An ant colony method is used in visual communication design to identify the optimal locations for visuals to be presented, and ASM semantics is used to characterize the visual languages. In order to accomplish the invention and development of a visual communication design style, the suggested algorithm has to be programmed and executed. It employs sequential decision marking to characterize the visual vocabulary and accomplishes automated organization. According to the trial results, visual saturation based on AI technology can reach up to 97%, and the average user satisfaction score is 7.65. It is evident that a creative visual thinking approach can maximize the visual communication design effect and communicate fresh design concepts. Show more

Abstract: Image classification using polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (Pol-SAR) is becoming more important in image processing for remote sensing applications. However, in the existing techniques, during the feature extraction process, there exist some limitations including laborious endeavour for Pol-SAR image classification, identifying intrinsic features for target recognition is difficult in feature selection, and pixel-level Pol-SAR image classification is difficult for obtaining more precise and coherent interpretation consequences. Hence to overcome these issues, a novel Multifarious Stratification Stratagem in machine learning is proposed to achieve pixel-level Pol-SAR classification. In this proposed model, a novel Scrumptious Integrant Wrenching method is used for efficient …feature extraction. It is compatible with the orientation-sensitive of the Pol-SAR image which increases the variety of intra-layer features. To remove the difficulty in feature selection, a novel Episodicical Proximity Selection method is proposed in which a Split-level parallel feature selection strategy is used to select the best qualities from the extracted features. To tackle the difficulty in classification, an Elastic Net Classifier (ENC) is used that find the coefficient vector for the linear combination of the training sets. This efficiently classified the best features in the Pol-SAR images and improved the proposed system’s accuracy. As a result, the performance measures of the proposed system demonstrate that the accuracy is increased by 99.69%, precision is increased by 98.99%, recall is increased by 98.99%, sensitivity is increased by 98.99%, and F1-score is increased by 98.99% as a response.

Abstract: As technology evolves, the allocation and use of educational resources becomes increasingly complex. Due to the many factors involved in recommending and matching English education resources, traditional predictive control models are no longer adequate. Therefore, fuzzy predictive control models based on neural networks have emerged. To increase the effectiveness and efficiency of using English educational resources (EER), this research aims to create a neural network-based fuzzy predictive control model (T-S-BPNN) for resource suggestion and matching. The results of the study show that the T-S-BPNN model α proposed in the study starts from 0 and increases sequentially by 0.1 up to …1, observing the change in MAE values. The experiment’s findings demonstrate that the value of MAE is lowest at values around 0.5. The T-S-BPNN model, on the other hand, gradually plateaued in its adaptation rate up to 7 runs, reaching about 9.8%. The accuracy rate peaked at 0.843 when the number of recommendations reached 7. The recall rate also peaked at 0.647 when the number of recommended English courses reached 7. The R-value for each set hovered around 0.97, which is a good fit. And the R-value of the training set is 0.97024, which can indicate that the T-S-BPNN model model proposed in the study fits well. It indicates that the algorithm proposed in the study is highly practical. Show more

Abstract: The rapid growth of the cloud computing landscape has created significant challenges in managing the escalating volume of data and diverse resources within the cloud environment, catering to a broad spectrum of users ranging from individuals to large corporations. Ineffectual resource allocation in cloud systems poses a threat to overall performance, necessitating the equitable distribution of resources among stakeholders to ensure profitability and customer satisfaction. This paper addresses the critical issue of resource management in cloud computing through the introduction of a Dynamic Task Scheduling with Virtual Machine allocation (DTS-VM) strategy, incorporating Edge-Cloud computing for the Internet of Things (IoT). …The proposed approach begins by employing a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) algorithm to classify user tasks into Low Priority, Mid Priority, and High Priority categories. Tasks are then assigned to Edge nodes based on their priority, optimizing efficiency through the application of the Spotted Hyena Optimization (SHO) algorithm for selecting the most suitable edge node. To address potential overloads on the edge, a Fuzzy approach evaluates offloading decisions using multiple metrics. Finally, optimal Virtual Machine allocation is achieved through the application of the Stable Matching algorithm. The seamless integration of these components ensures a dynamic and efficient allocation of resources, preventing the prolonged withholding of customer requests due to the absence of essential resources. The proposed system aims to enhance overall cloud system performance and user satisfaction while maintaining organizational profitability. The effectiveness of the DTS-VM strategy is validated through comprehensive testing and evaluation, showcasing its potential to address the challenges posed by the diverse and expanding cloud computing landscape.
