Abstract: Aiming at the problem of inaccurate transformer fault diagnosis in dissolved gas analysis, this paper proposes a novel diagnostic method that integrates an enhanced honey badger algorithm (EHBA) with an ensemble learning-based deep hybrid kernel extreme learning machine (DHKELM). First, kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) was deployed for feature fusion of the gas data, thus extracting more effective features. The DHKELM, combining polynomial and RBF kernel functions, was used as a base learning to build a powerful classifier with Adaboost framework. The EHBA introduces information sharing and firefly perturbation strategies based on HBA. This EHBA was harnessed to optimize the …DHKELM’s critical parameters, establishing the EHBA-DHKELM-Adaboost transformer fault diagnosis model. Finally, the features garnered by KPCA were fed into the model, simulating and validating various fault diagnosis models. The findings reveal that EHBA-DHKELM-Adaboost achieves 98.75% diagnostic accuracy in transformer faults, surpassing other models. Show more

Abstract: The research of biomedical data is crucial for disease diagnosis, health management, and medicine development. However, biomedical data are usually characterized by high dimensionality and class imbalance, which increase computational cost and affect the classification performance of minority class, making accurate classification difficult. In this paper, we propose a biomedical data classification method based on feature selection and data resampling. First, use the minimal-redundancy maximal-relevance (mRMR) method to select biomedical data features, reduce the feature dimension, reduce the computational cost, and improve the generalization ability; then, a new SMOTE oversampling method (Spectral-SMOTE) is proposed, which solves the noise sensitivity problem …of SMOTE by an improved spectral clustering method; finally, the marine predators algorithm is improved using piecewise linear chaotic maps and random opposition-based learning strategy to improve the algorithm’s optimization seeking ability and convergence speed, and the key parameters of the spectral-SMOTE are optimized using the improved marine predators algorithm, which effectively improves the performance of the over-sampling approach. In this paper, five real biomedical datasets are selected to test and evaluate the proposed method using four classifiers, and three evaluation metrics are used to compare with seven data resampling methods. The experimental results show that the method effectively improves the classification performance of biomedical data. Statistical test results also show that the proposed PRMPA-Spectral-SMOTE method outperforms other data resampling methods. Show more

Abstract: Abnormal-trajectory detection can be used to detect fraudulent behavior of taxi drivers transporting passengers. Aiming at the problem that existing methods do not fully consider abnormal fragments of trajectories, this paper proposes an abnormal-trajectory detection method based on sub-trajectory classification and outlier-factor acquisition, which effectively detects abnormal sub-trajectories and further detects abnormal trajectories. First, each trajectory is reconstructed using the turning angles and is divided into multiple sub-trajectories according to the turning angle threshold and trajectory point original acceleration. The sub-trajectories are then classified according to the extracted directional features. Finally, the multivariate distances between angular adjacent segments are calculated …to obtain the outlier factor, and abnormal sub-trajectories are detected. The sum of the lengths of the abnormal sub-trajectories is used to calculate the outlier score and identify abnormal trajectories. Based on experimental results using real trajectory datasets, it has been found that the proposed method performs better at detecting abnormal trajectories than other similar methods. Show more

Abstract: Optimization of the routing represents an important challenge when considering the rapid development of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), which involve efficient energy methods. Applying the effectiveness of a Deep Neural Network (DNN) and a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), the present article proposes an innovative method for attaining Energy-Efficient Routing (EER) in WSN. When it comes to dealing with dynamic network issues, conventional routing protocols generally conflict, resulting in unsustainable Energy consumption (EC). By applying algorithms based on data mining to adapt routing selections in an effective procedure, the GMM + DNN methodology that has been developed is able to successfully address this …problem. The GMM is a fundamental Feature Extraction (FE) method for accurately representing the features of statistical analysis associated with network parameters like signal frequency, the amount of traffic, and channel states. By learning from previous data collection, the DNN, which relies on these FE, provides improved routing selections, resulting in more efficient use of energy. Since routing paths are constantly optimized to ensure dynamic adaptation, where less energy is used, networks last longer and perform more efficiently. Network simulations highlight the GMM + DNN method’s effectiveness and depict how it outperforms conventional routing methods while preserving network connectivity and data throughput. The GMM + DNN’s adaptability to multiple network topologies and traffic patterns and its durability make it an efficient EER technique in the diverse WSN context. The GMM + DNN achieves an EC of 0.561 J, outperforming the existing state-of-the-art techniques. Show more

Abstract: The development and application of blockchain provides technical support for supply chain technological innovation and industrial innovation. Integrating the decentralized, independent, open, traceable and tamper-proof features of the blockchain into the supply chain can effectively improve the problems of unstable supply chain structure, low security, low privacy, low collaboration ability and high operating costs. Establishing probabilistic double hierarchy linguistic multi-attribute decision-making (PDHL-MADM) model to evaluate the performance of blockchain is an effective measure to optimize blockchain performance and improve supply chain stability. Therefore, this thesis first takes the processing efficiency, cost, security performance, update and improvement ability as evaluation attributes. …Then the IDOCRIW weight method is used to calculate the objective weight of attributes. Based on Aczel-Alsina t-norm (AATN) and Aczel-Alsina t-conorm (AATCN), four operations of probabilistic double hierarchy linguistic term set (PDHLTS) are defined, and PDHLAAWA operator, PDHLAAOWA operator, PDHLAAHA operator, PDHLAAHM operator, PDHLAAWHM operator and their dual operators are proposed, and a series of corresponding PDHL operator models are constructed. In addition, the sensitivity and stability of this series of operator models are analyzed in depth. Finally, the new model proposed in this thesis is compared with the existing model to verify its scientific and superiority. Show more

Abstract: The term “educational data mining” refers to a field of study where information from academic environments is predicted using data mining, machine learning, and statistics. Education is the act of giving or receiving knowledge to or from someone who is formally studying and developing a natural talent. Over time, scholars have used data mining techniques to uncover hidden information in educational statistics and other external elements. This study suggests a unique method for analysing academic student performance that is based on data mining and machine learning. Here, the input is gathered as a dataset of student academic performance and is …processed for normalisation and noise reduction. Then, using the Boltzmann deep learning model coupled with linear kernel principal component analysis, this data’s characteristics were retrieved and chosen. Based on weights, information gain, and the Gini index, the characteristics are assessed and optimised. Following the selection of the pertinent data, conditional random field-based probabilistic clustering model is performed using RNN-based training, and the academic performance of the students is then examined using voting classifiers and sparse features.

Abstract: The XOR operator is a simple yet crucial computation in computer science, especially in cryptography. In symmetric cryptographic schemes, particularly in block ciphers, the AddRoundKey transformation is commonly used to XOR an internal state with a round key. One method to enhance the security of block ciphers is to diversify this transformation. In this paper, we propose some straightforward yet highly effective techniques for generating t-bit random XOR tables. One approach is based on the Hadamard matrix, while another draws inspiration from the popular intellectual game Sudoku. Additionally, we introduce algorithms to animate the XOR transformation for generalized block ciphers. …Specifically, we apply our findings to the AES encryption standard to present the key-dependent AES algorithm. Furthermore, we conduct a security analysis and assess the randomness of the proposed key-dependent AES algorithm using NIST SP 800-22, Shannon entropy based on the ENT tool, and min-entropy based on NIST SP 800-90B. Thanks to the key-dependent random XOR tables, the key-dependent AES algorithm have become much more secure than AES, and they also achieve better results in some statistical standards than AES.

Abstract: Graph-structured data is ubiquitous in real-world applications, such as social networks, citation networks, and communication networks. Graph neural network (GNN) is the key to process them. In recent years, graph attention networks (GATs) have been proposed for node classification and achieved encouraging performance. It focuses on the content associated on nodes to evaluate the attention weights, and the rich structure information in the graph is almost ignored. Therefore, we propose a multi-head attention mechanism to fully employ node content and graph structure information. The core idea is to introduce the interactions in the topological structure into the existing GATs. This …method can more accurately estimate the attention weights among nodes, thereby improving the convergence of GATs. Second, the mechanism is lightweight and efficient, requires no training to learn, can accurately analyze higher-order structural information, and can be strongly interpreted through heatmaps. We name the proposed model content- and structure-based graph attention network (CSGAT). Furthermore, our proposed model achieves state-of-the-art performance on a number of datasets in node classification. The code and data are available at https://github.com/CroakerShark/CSGAT.

Abstract: Cross-lingual event retrieval is an information retrieval task aimed at cross-lingual event retrieval among multiple languages to find text or documents related to a specific event. Specific to Chinese-Vietnamese cross-language event retrieval, it involves using Chinese as a query to retrieve Vietnamese documents related to the query event. The critical issue is how to efficiently align query and document representations with limited resources. Existing cross-language pre-training models are trained on large-scale multilingual corpora, but their training goals do not include explicit language alignment tasks. Due to the uneven distribution of training corpora between different languages, these models have The problem …of language bias. Therefore, this linguistic bias is also inherited in cross-lingual retrieval based on these models. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a Chinese-Vietnamese cross-lingual event retrieval method based on knowledge distillation. This approach enables the model to learn good query-document matching features from monolingual retrieval by transferring knowledge from high-resource to low-resource languages. By enhancing the alignment between queries and documents in different languages in a shared semantic space, the method improves the performance of Chinese-Vietnamese cross-lingual event retrieval.

Abstract: Automated railway security systems prevent train collisions with trackside obstructions that cause accidents in high-speed railways. Rail safety is being improved and accident rates reduced through continuous research. A rapid advancement in deep learning has promoted new possibilities for research in this field. In this work, a novel deep learning-based FOD-YOLO net is proposed for detecting the fasteners faults and objects in the railway tracks. There are two basic components in the deep learning-based YOLOv8: the backbone and the head. YOLOv8 utilizes an improved version of the CSPDarknet53 network for detecting objects on the railway track. The head of YOLOv8 …consists of EfficientNet with various convolutional layers with squeeze and excitation blocks for detecting any defect in the track fasteners. These layers are liable for detecting the objectness scores, bounding boxes and class probabilities structured with fully connected layers for the objects and faults in tracks. Based on the results from the Yolo network, the alert message is sent to the loco pilot to avoid accidents using fuzzy logic. The experimental fallouts of proposed FOD-YOLO net achieve higher accuracy and yields better evaluation results with 98.14% accuracy, 98.84% precision and 95.94% recall. From the experimental results, the FOD-YOLO net improves the overall accuracy range by 5.44%, 4.72%, 0.73%, and 13.18% better than Fast RCNN, YOLOv5s-VF, YOLO-GD, and 2D-SSA + Deep network respectively.

Abstract: In this paper, an improved constant current step based on the grey wolf optimization (CCS-GWO) algorithm for photovoltaic systems is investigated. The development of grey wolf optimization has been widely spread over photovoltaic applications. This method is one of the metaheuristic swarm optimization algorithm groups inspired by an optimum means of chasing prey by grey wolves. The proposed technique applies constant current steps to the pack of wolves (alpha, beta, and omega) by monitoring the average of the internal current step and external current step in order to target the leader alpha wolf position. Moreover, the proposed technique solves the …convergence process issues, low convergence speed, and premature local optima problems of the traditional GWO algorithm. This CCS-GWO algorithm accurately tracks the maximum power point from the photovoltaic systems for load charging in different partial shading conditions (PSCs). A number of standard benchmark functions are presented with low average cost functions and their corresponding standard deviation values. The simulation results revealed that the proposed CCS-GWO approach outperforms the existing GWO and GA algorithms in terms of efficiency (98.55%) and tracking time (0.3 s). Show more

Abstract: In the present study, three hybrid models include support vector regression-salp swarm optimization (SVR-SSO), support vector regression-biogeography-based (SVR-BBO), and support vector regression-phasor particle swarm optimization (SVR- PPSO) was applied to forecast pond ash’s CBR value modified with lime sludge (LS) and lime (LI). In the developed models, five variables were selected as inputs. It can result that the developed integrated models have R2 bigger than 0.9952. It means the agreement between observed and forecasted values by hybrid models is mainly similar to represent the highest accuracy. In both the training and testing stages, PSO-SVR results from better performance than the …BBO-SVR model, with R2, RMSE, MAE, and PI equal to 0.9983, 0.6439, 0.3181, and 0.0081 for training data, and 0.9975, 0.7319, 0.4135, and 0.0141 for testing data, respectively. So, by considering the OBJ index, the OBJ value for PSO-SVR is 12.966, lower than BBO-SVR at 16.9957. Therefore, the PSO-SVR model outperforms another model to estimate the CBR of pond ash modified with LI and LS, consequently being recognized as the proposed model that makes it to be used for practical applications.

Abstract: Pose estimation plays a crucial role in human-centered vision applications and has advanced significantly in recent years. However, prevailing approaches use extremely complex structural designs for obtaining high scores on the benchmark dataset, hampering edge device applications. In this study, an efficient and lightweight human pose estimation problem is investigated. Enhancements are made to the context enhancement module of the U-shaped structure to improve the multi-scale local modeling capability. With a transformer structure, a lightweight transformer block was designed to enhance the local feature extraction and global modeling ability. Finally, a lightweight pose estimation network— U-shaped Hybrid Vision Transformer, UViT— …was developed. The minimal network UViT-T achieved a 3.9% improvement in AP scores on the COCO validation set with fewer model parameters and computational complexity compared with the best-performing V2 version of the MobileNet series. Specifically, with an input size of 384×288, UViT-T achieves an impressive AP score of 70.2 on the COCO test-dev set, with only 1.52 M parameters and 2.32 GFLOPs. The inference speed is approximately twice that of general-purpose networks. This study provides an efficient and lightweight design idea and method for the human pose estimation task and provides theoretical support for its deployment on edge devices. Show more

Abstract: A plant disease that attacks the leaf causes significant yield and market value losses. A professional plant pathologist should be able to visually identify the disease by looking at the affected plant leaves, but this is unlikely to result in a more accurate diagnosis. Disease symptoms should be immediately recognisable in order to stop the spread of the illness. To find plant diseases, steps should be taken using computer assisted technologies. Numerous methods for identifying plant diseases using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) have been developed and tested in numerous studies. Machine learning has the disadvantages of having …a small dataset, taking longer, and requiring more time for results interpretation. Deep learning is suggested as a solution to this. This study compares the effectiveness of both ML&DL for plant leaf disease identification with more recent investigations. The common deep learning technique involves utilising the Krill Herd Optimisation Algorithm (KHO) to segment images and the Speeded up Robust Features (SURF) to extract the images. The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) then chooses the features. Then, a Deep Belief Network (DBN) can be used to classify the chosen image. Multiple diseases can be identified on the same leaf using this method. This study demonstrates that deep learning outperforms machine learning in terms of results. The outcome demonstrates that the deep learning method is superior for the diagnosis of plant disease when there is sufficient data available. Using this technique, the validity and consistency were also examined. Show more

Abstract: The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) brings sweeping changes in various industries. Healthcare industries have become a prime example where the Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) is making significant progress, particularly in how we approach real-time patient care. Traditional systems for monitoring older people and people with special needs are frequently expensive, require a large workforce, and fall short of providing real-time data. This paper introduces the “3-Tier Health Care Architecture,” an integrated approach to mitigating these issues. This architecture capitalizes on IoHT technologies and is constructed around three principal tiers: Sensor, Fog, and Cloud. The Sensor …Tier employs Health Metrics Acquisition Units (HMAUs) fitted with an nRF5340 Development Kit, capturing an extensive range of health-related metrics via wearable sensors. These metrics are then relayed to the Local Processing Units (LPUs) in Fog Tier, which operates on Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W microprocessors for the initial data processing before forwarding to the cloud. The Cloud Tier uses a hybrid CNN-LSTM Machine Learning (ML) model to perform Real-Time Healthcare Monitoring (RTHM) status assessments and includes an Early Warning System for immediate alert issuance. The proposed architecture is resilient, scalable, and efficient, serving as a fortified and all-encompassing solution for RTHM. This enables quick medical interventions, thus elevating healthcare quality and potentially life-saving. Show more

Abstract: Probabilistic linguistic term sets (PLTSs) provide a flexible tool to express linguistic preferences, and several multi-criteria decision models based on PLTSs have been recently developed. In this framework, distortion risk measures are extensively used in finance and insurance applications, but are rarely applied in fuzzy systems. In this paper, distortion risk measures are applied to fuzzy tail decisions. In particular, three tail risk measurement methods are put forward, referred to as probabilistic linguistic VaR (PLVaR), expected probability linguistic VaR (EPLVaR), and Wang tail risk measure and extensively study their properties. Our novel methods help to clarify the connections between distortion …risk measure and fuzzy tail decision-making. In particular, the Wang tail risk measure is characterized by consistency and stability of decision results. The criteria and expert weights are unknown or only partially known during the decision making process, and the maximising PLTSs deviations are showed how to determine them. The theoretical results are showcased on an optimal stock fund selection problem, where the three tail risk measures are compared and analyzed. Show more

Abstract: Automatic program repair (APR) is crucial to improve software quality. Recently, neural machine translation (NMT) based modeling for bug fixes has demonstrated great potential. However, these approaches still have two major challenges. One is that their search space is limited due to the out-of-vocabulary (OOV) problem. The other is that the NMT-based APR models tend to ignore past translation information, which often leads to over-translation and under-translation. To address the above challenges, we propose MNRepair, a new NMT-based APR approach that combines multiple mechanisms to fix bugs in source code. Specifically, we devise an encoder-decoder NMT framework with the attention …mechanism. Our framework combines the copy mechanism to overcome the OOV problem that occurs with source code. To deal with the over-translation and under-translation, we utilize a coverage mechanism to record past translation information. MNRepair is able to capture a wide range of repair operators and fix 26 bugs in Defects4J. Our evaluation shows the effectiveness of multiple mechanisms in the repair process. Show more

Abstract: Cloud computing is a new technology that provides services to customers anywhere, anytime, under varying conditions and managed by a third-party cloud provider. Even though cloud computing has progressed a lot, some attacks still happen. The recent anomalous and signature attacks use clever strategies such as low-rate attacks and attacking as an authenticated user. In this paper, a novel Attack Detection and Prevention (ADAPT) method is proposed to overcome this issue. The proposed system consists of three stages. An Intrusion Detection System is initially used to check whether there is an attack or not by comparing the IP address in …the Blacklist IP Database. If an attack occurs, the IP address will be added to the Blacklist IP database and blocked. The second stage uses Bi-directional LSTM and Bi-directional GRU to check the anomalous and signature attack. In the third stage, classified output is sent to reinforcement learning, if any attack occurs the IP address is added to the blacklist IP database otherwise the packets are forwarded to the user. The proposed ADAPT technique achieves a higher accuracy range than existing techniques. Show more

Abstract: A consistency fuzzy set is composed of mean values and consistency degrees of fuzzy sequences in the transformation process of a fuzzy multiset (FM), but lacks confidence intervals in relation to a confidence level of fuzzy sequences, which shows its deficiency. To solve this deficiency, this paper aims to propose an improved transformation approach from FM to a confidence consistency fuzzy cubic set (CCFCS) and to develop an exponential similarity measure of CCFCSs for modeling piano performance evaluation (PPE) in a FM scenario. Consequently, this study includes the following context. First, a transformation approach from FM to CCFCS is proposed …in terms of mean values, consistency degrees (the complement of standard deviation), and confidence intervals of fuzzy sequences subject to a confidence level and normal distribution. Second, the exponential similarity measure of CCFCSs is proposed in the scenario of FMs. Third, a PPE model is developed based on the proposed similarity measure of CCFCSs in the FM scenario. Finally, the developed model is applied to a piano performance competition organized by Shaoxing University in China as an actual evaluation example, and then the rationality and validity of the proposed model in the scenario of FMs are verified through sensitivity and comparison analysis.

Abstract: Lung cancer constituted 12.2% of newly diagnosed cancer cases globally in 2020. The high fatality rate of the condition is attributed to delayed diagnosis and inadequate symptom recognition. In Malaysia, the incidence of lung cancer is estimated to be 1 in 60 males and 1 in 138 females, with a median age of 70 years or above. Most lung cancer cases were detected during advanced stages, specifically stages III and IV, with a prevalence exceeding 90% for both genders. In Malaysia, most patients are diagnosed in stages III and IV, which are associated with a lower likelihood of long-term survival. …Many cases are identified at a late stage, characterized by significant tumor expansion or the spread of cancer cells to areas that cannot be treated surgically. Malaysians are unaware of cancer symptoms; hence the situation is common. To improve survival and reduce mortality, Malaysians must recognize the symptoms of lung cancer. Fuzzy linear regression and multiple linear regression models have been compared to predict high-risk lung cancer symptoms in Malaysia. The fuzzy linear regression model analyses secondary data, eliminates irrelevant information and enhances precision in the results. Lung cancer patients at Al-Sultan Abdullah Hospital (UiTM Hospital) in Selangor provided data for this study. Data from 124 lung cancer patients were analyzed using Microsoft Excel, SPSS, and MATLAB. To improve data accuracy, the study used cross-validation measurement error (MSE and RMSE). According to data analysis, hemoptysis and chest pain are high-risk symptoms with MSE and RMSE values of 1.549 and 1.245, respectively. Show more

Abstract: This paper improves the visual change-based personnel evacuation model by considering the evacuees’ gravity. Specifically, first, the new model incorporates the gravity formula in the model’s mechanic part to consider the influence of gravity. Second, the new model involves rules for determining the visual range of personnel moving in the stairwell. Third, the proposed model investigates the influence of the angle and width of the stairwell, the number of people, and other factors during personnel evacuation under the influence of gravity. The model is developed in Python and is compared with actual results, revealing that the proposed model is more …realistic considering the evacuation time compared to current models. Indeed, under a fixed number of people, when the stairwell angle is less than 34°, the evacuation time decreases as the angle increases, and when the stairwell angle exceeds 34°, the evacuation time is almost unchanged. Additionally, under a fixed number of evacuees, the evacuation time decreases as the width of the stairwell increases, and due to stairwell width space redundancy, the evacuation time tends to stabilize. The results of the new model research provide reference for the design of building safety evacuation, thereby improving the safety of buildings. Show more

Abstract: Traffic sign detection technology plays an important role in driver assistance systems and automated driving systems. This paper proposes DeployEase-YOLO, a real-time high-precision detection scheme based on an adaptive scaling channel pruning strategy, to facilitate the deployment of detectors on edge devices.More specifically, based on the characteristics of small traffic signs and complex background, this paper first of all adds a small target detection layer to the basic architecture of YOLOv5 in order to improve the detection accuracy of small traffic signs.Then, when capturing specific scenes with large fields of view, higher resolution and richer pixel information are preserved instead …of directly scaling the image size.Finally, the network structure is pruned and compressed using an adaptive scaling channel pruning strategy, and the pruned network is subjected to a secondary sparse pruning operation. The number of parameters and computations is greatly reduced without increasing the depth of the network structure or the influence of the input image size, thus compressing the model to the minimum within the compressible range.Experimental results show that the model trained by Experimental results show that the model trained by DeployEase-YOLO achieves higher accuracy and a smaller size on TT100k, a challenging traffic sign detection dataset.Compared to existing methods, DeployEase-YOLO achieves an average accuracy of 93.3%, representing a 1.3% improvement over the state-of-the-art YOLOv7 network, while reducing the number of parameters and computations to 41.69% and 59.98% of the original, respectively, with a compressed volume of 53.22% of the previous one.This proves that the DeployEase-YOLO has a great deal of potential for use in the area of small traffic sign detection.The algorithm outperforms existing methods in terms of accuracy and speed, and has the advantage of a compressed network structure that facilitates deployment of the model on resource-limited devices.

Abstract: This paper aims to present Bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (BVPHFSs) by combining bipolar fuzzy sets and probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (PHFSs). PHFSs are a strong version of hesitant fuzzy sets (HFSs) in terms of evaluated as probabilistic of each element. Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets (PHFSs) are a set structure that argues that each alternative should be evaluated probabilistically. In this framework, the proposed cluster allows probabilistic evaluation of decision- makers’ opinions as negative. Thus, this case proposes flexibility about selection of an element and aids to overcome with noise channels. Furthermore, some new aggregation operators are discussed called …bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted average operator (BVPHFWA), Generalized bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted average operator (GBVPHFWA), bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric operator (BVPHFWG), Generalized bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy weighted geometric operator (GBVPHFWG), bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy hybrid weighted arithmetic and geometric operator (BVPHFHWAG) and Generalized bipolar valued probabilistic hesitant fuzzy hybrid weighted arithmetic and geometric (GBVPHFHWAG) and some basic properties are presented. A score function is defined ranking alternatives. Moreover, two different algorithms are put forward with helping to TOPSIS method and by using aggregation operators over BVPHFSs. The validity of proposed operators are analyzed with an example and results are compared in their own. Show more

Abstract: Rapid urbanization has made road construction and maintenance imperative, but detecting road diseases has been time-consuming with limited accuracy. To overcome these challenges, we propose an efficient YOLOv7 road disease detection model. Our approach involves integrating MobilieNetV3 as the backbone feature extraction network to reduce the network’s parameters and computational requirements. Additionally, we introduce the BRA attention module into the spatial pyramid pooling module to eliminate redundant information and enhance the network’s feature representation capability. Moreover, we utilize the F-ReLU activation function in the backbone network, expanding the convolutional layers’ receptive field range. To optimize the model’s boundary loss, we …employ the Wise-IoU loss function, which places more emphasis on the quality of ordinary samples and enhances the overall performance and generalization ability of the network. Experimental results demonstrate that our improved detection algorithm achieves a higher recall rate and mean average precision (mAP) on the public dataset (RDD) and the NJdata dataset in Nanjing’s urban area. Specifically, compared to YOLOv7, our model increases the recall rate and mAP on RDD by 3.3% and 2.6%, respectively. On the NJdata dataset, our model improves the recall rate and mAP by 1.9% and 1.3%, respectively. Furthermore, our model reduces parameter and computational requirements by 30% and 22.5%, respectively, striking a balance between detection accuracy and speed. In conclusion, our road disease detection model presents an effective solution to address the challenges associated with road disease detection in urban areas. It offers improved accuracy, efficiency, and generalization capabilities compared to existing models. Show more

Abstract: As more people express their thoughts on products on various online shopping platforms, the feelings expressed in these opinions are becoming a significant source of information for marketers and buyers. These opinions have a big impact on consumers’ decision to buy the best quality product. When there are too many features or a small number of records to analyze, the decision-making process gets difficult. A recent stream of study has used the conventional quantitative star score ratings and textual content reviews in this context. In this research, a decision-making framework is proposed that relies on feature-based opinions to analyze the …textual content of reviews and classify buyer’s opinions, thereby assisting consumers in making long-term purchases. The framework is proposed in this paper for product purchase decision making based on feature-based opinions and deep learning. Framework consists of four components: i) Pre-processing, ii) Feature extraction, iii) Feature-based opinion classification, and iv) Decision-making. Web scraping is used to obtain the dataset of Smartphone reviews, which is subsequently clean and pre-processed using tokenization and POS tagging. From the tagged dataset, noun labeled words are retrieved, and then the probable product’s features are extracted. These feature-based sentences or reviews are processed using a word embedding to generate review vectors that identify contextual information. These word vectors are used to construct hidden vectors at the word and sentence levels using a hierarchical attention method. With respect to each feature, reviews are divided into five classes: extremely positive, positive, extremely negative, negative, and neutral. The proposed method may readily detect a customer’s opinion on the quality of a product based on a certain attribute, which is beneficial in making a purchase choice. Show more

Abstract: This study proposes a weighted composite approach for grey relational analysis (GRA) that utilizes a numerical weather prediction (NWP) and support vector machine (SVM). The approach is optimized using an improved grey wolf optimization (IGWO) algorithm. Initially, the dimension of NWP data is decreased by t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE), then the weight of sample coefficients is calculated by entropy-weight method (EWM), and the weighted grey relational of data points is calculated for different weather numerical time series data. At the same time, a new weighted composite grey relational degree is formed by combining the weighted cosine similarity of NWP …values of the historical day and to be measured day. The SVM’s regression power prediction model is constructed by the time series data. To improve the accuracy of the system’s predictions, the grey relational time series data is chosen as the input variable for the SVM, and the influence parameters of the ideal SVM are discovered using the IGWO technique. According to the simulated prediction and analysis based on NWP, it can be observed that the proposed method in this study significantly improves the prediction accuracy of the data. Specifically, evaluation metrics such as root mean squared error (RMSE), regression correlation coefficient (r 2 ), mean absolute error (MAE) and mean absolute percent error (MAPE) all show corresponding enhancements, while the computational burden remains relatively low.

Abstract: Human pose recognition from videotapes has become an emerging research topic for tracking human movements. The objective of this work is to develop a deep multimodal Spatio-Temporal Harris Hawk Optimized Pose Recognition (STHHO-PR) framework for self-learning fitness exercises. The presented STHHO-PR framework uses audio modality and visual modality to classify the different poses. In audio modality, the VGG-16 network paradigm is used to extract the audio traits for fitness pose recognition. In visual modality, Harris Hawks Optimization (HHO) along with the Minimum Cross Entropy (MCE) method is employed to find out the optimum threshold values for body parts segmentation. These …segmented body parts highlight the human joint points that are connected through the skeletonization process to extract the skeletal information. The extracted spatio-temporal features from audio modality and visual modality are optimally fused and used in the classification process. Weighted Majority Voting Ensemble (WMVE) classifier is adopted to build the classification model. This work is experimented with yoga videos acquired from publicly available datasets. The results show that the presented STHHO-PR framework outperforms other state-of-art procedures in terms of prediction accuracy. Show more

Abstract: Abstract Adversarial examples are often used to test and evaluate the security and robustness of image classification models. Though adversarial attacks under white-box setting can achieve a high attack success rate, due to overfitting, the success rate of black-box attacks is relatively low. To this end, this paper proposes diversified input strategies to improve the transferability of adversarial examples. In this method, various transformation methods are applied to randomly transform the original image multiple times, thereby generating a batch of transformed images. Then, in the process of back-propagation, the loss function gradient of the transformed images is calculated, and a weighted …average of the obtained gradient values is performed to generate adversarial perturbation, which is iteratively added to the original image to generate adversarial examples. Meanwhile, by increasing the variety of data augmentation transformation types and the number of input images, the proposed method effectively alleviates overfitting and improves the transferability of adversarial examples. Extensive experiments on the ImageNet dataset indicate that the proposed method can perform black-box attacks better than benchmark methods, with an average of 97.2% success rate attacking multiple models simultaneously.

Abstract: The development and utilization of network big data is also accompanied by data theft and destruction, so the monitoring of network security is particularly important. Based on this, the study applies the fuzzy C-mean clustering algorithm to the network security model, however, the algorithm has major defects in discrete data processing and the influence of feature weights. Therefore, the study introduces the concept of local density and optimizes the initial clustering center to solve its sensitive defects as well as empirical limitations; at the same time, the study introduces the adaptive methods of fuzzy indicators and feature weighting, and uses …the concepts such as fuzzy center-of-mass distribution to avoid problems such as the model converging too fast and not being able to handle discrete data. Finally, the study does a simulation analysis of the performance of each module, and the comparison of the overall algorithm with the rest of the models. The experimental results show that in the comparison of the overall algorithm, its false detection rate decreases by 8.57% in the IDS Dataset dataset, compared to the particle swarm algorithm. Therefore, the adaptive weighted fuzzy C-Means algorithm based on local density proposed in the study can effectively improve the network intrusion detection performance. Show more

Abstract: Along with the booming of intelligent manufacturing, the reliability management of intelligent manufacturing systems appears to be becoming more significant. Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a prospective reliability management instrument extensively utilized to manage failure modes of systems, products, processes, and services in various industries. However, the conventional FMEA method has been criticized for its inherent limitations. Machine learning can handle large amounts of data and has merits in reliability analysis and prediction, which can help in failure mode classification and risk management under limited resources. Therefore, this paper devises a method for complex systems based on an …improved FMEA model combined with machine learning and applies it to the reliability management of intelligent manufacturing systems. First, the structured network of failure modes is constructed based on the knowledge graph for intelligent manufacturing systems. Then, the grey relation analysis (GRA) is applied to determine the risk prioritization of failure modes. Hereafter, the k-means algorithm in unsupervised machine learning is employed to cluster failure modes into priority classes. Finally, a case study and further comparative analysis are implemented. The results demonstrate that failure modes in system security, production quality, and information integration are high-risk and require more resources for prevention. In addition, recommendations for risk prevention and monitoring of intelligent manufacturing systems were given based on the clustering results. In comparison to the conventional FMEA method, the proposed method can more precisely capture the coupling relationship between the failure modes compared with. This research provides significant support for the reliability and risk management of complex systems such as intelligent manufacturing systems. Show more

The drug attributes are characterized by a BERT pre-trained model, and a dual-feature extraction structure is proposed based on the BiGRU neural network to capture high-level semantic information. Label categorization of cardiovascular drug attributes, such as indications and mode of administration, is accomplished. The F1 score of 0.8431 was obtained using 5-fold …cross-validation. Comparing KNN and Naïve bayes, and conducting CNN and BiGRU control experiments on the basis of Word2Vec characterization of medication guidelines, the proposed multi-label text classification method is effective and the F1 value is significantly improved.

Abstract: To address the challenges of dense scenarios with densely distributed small-scale faces, severe occlusions, and unclear features leading to inaccurate detection and high miss rates, we propose a lightweight small-scale face detection algorithm based on YOLOv5. The aim is to enhance the accuracy and precision of target detection. Firstly, we introduce the Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM) into the existing backbone network, obtaining more detailed features by comprehensively considering both spatial and channel dimensions. Next, in the Neck network, we embed involution to enhance channel information and weight distribution. Finally, a new feature fusion layer is added to improve the …capture capability of feature information for smaller pixels and smaller targets in visible areas by integrating deep semantic information with shallow semantic information. The experimental results demonstrate that the improved model exhibits an increase in the average precision across all three subsets of the public WIDER FACE dataset, with improvements of 3.2%, 3.4%, and 2.6% respectively. The detection frame rate reaches 87 frames per second (FPS), significantly enhancing the detection performance of facial targets. This improvement meets the accuracy and real-time requirements for detecting small-scale facial targets in dense scenarios. Show more

Abstract: A rising number of edge devices, like controllers, sensors, and robots, are crucial for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) networks for collecting data for communication, storage, and processing. The security of the IIoT could be compromised by any malicious or unusual behavior on the part of any of these devices. They may also make it possible for malicious software placed on end nodes to enter the network and perform unauthorized activities. Existing anomaly detection techniques are less effective due to the increasing diversity of the network and the complexity of cyberattacks. In addition, most strategies are ineffective for devices with …limited resources. Therefore, this work presents an effective deep learning based Malware Detection framework to make the edge based IIoT network more secure. This multi-stage system begins with the Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Networks (DCGAN) based data augmentation method to overcome the issue of data imbalance. Next, a ConvNeXt-based method extracts the features from the input data. Finally, an optimized Enhanced Elman Spike Neural Network (EESNN) based deep learning is utilized for malware recognition and classification. Using two distinct datasets— MaleVis and Malimg— the generalizability of the suggested model is clearly demonstrated. With an accuracy of 99.24% for MaleVis and 99.31% for the Malimg dataset, the suggested strategy demonstrated excellent results and surpassed all other existing methods. It illustrates how the suggested strategy outperforms alternative models and offers numerous benefits. Show more

Abstract: Panchromatic and multi-spectral image fusion, called panchromatic sharpening, is the process of combining the spatial and spectral information of the source image into the fused image to give the image a higher spatial and spectral resolution. In order to improve the spatial resolution and spectral information quality of the image, an adaptive multi-spectral image fusion method based on an improved arithmetic optimization algorithm is proposed. This paper proposed improved arithmetic optimization algorithm, which uses dynamic stochastic search technique and oppositional learning operator, to perform local search and behavioral complementation of population individuals, and to improve the ability of population individuals …to jump out of the local optimum. The method combines adaptive methods to calculate the weights of linear combinations of panchromatic and multi-spectral gradients to improve the quality of fused images. This study not only improves the quality and effect of image fusion, but also focuses on optimizing the operation efficiency of the algorithm to have real-time and high efficiency. Experimental results show that the proposed method exhibits strong performance on different datasets, improves the spatial resolution and spectral information quality of the fused images, and has good adaptability and robustness.

Abstract: Gait analysis is a widely used technique for passive human identification and tracking, with potential applications in security and surveillance systems. However, existing gait recognition methods face challenges in handling changing angles and uncertain features. In this paper, we propose a novel gait recognition approach that leverages real-time spatio-temporal gait features, including step length, gait cycle, height, cadence, swing ratio, and foot length. We apply the Extreme Learning Machines (ELM) algorithm for classification, which has been shown to be effective in various applications due to its fast-learning speed and good generalization performance. To further enhance the recognition rate, we introduce …an evolutionary BAT-optimized ELM algorithm that addresses the instability issue in ELM. The proposed BAT-ELM algorithm can optimize the hidden nodes and weights of ELM, which leads to improved efficiency in recognizing gait from multiple view angles ranging from 0° to 180°. Our comprehensive analysis of the proposed approach indicates that it outperforms other reported algorithms in terms of recognition rate and efficiency. Our work demonstrates the effectiveness of combining real-time spatio-temporal gait features with the BAT-ELM algorithm for gait recognition. The proposed approach has potential applications in various fields, including security and surveillance systems, healthcare, and robotics. Our findings highlight the importance of leveraging evolutionary algorithms to optimize machine learning models and achieve better performance in complex recognition tasks. Show more

Abstract: The ability, interest, and prior accomplishments of students with varying proficiency levels all impact how they learn English. Exact validation is essential for facilitating efficient evaluation and training models. The research’s innovative significance resides in incorporating personal attributes, progressive appraisal, and Fuzzy Logic-based appraisal in English language learning. The PA2M model, which addresses the shortcomings of existing models, offers a thorough and accurate assessment, enabling personalized recommendations and enhanced teaching tactics for students with varied skill levels. This research proposes the Fuzzy Logic System (FLS)-based Persistent Appraisal Assessment Model (PA2M). Based on the students’ evolving performance and accumulated data, this …model evaluates the students’ English learning capabilities. The model assesses the student’s ability using fuzzification approaches to reduce variations in appraisal verification by linking personal attributes with performance. Mamdani FIS offers a clear and thorough evaluation of student’s English learning capacity within the framework of the appraisal methodology. The inputs are updated utilizing performance and accumulated ability data to improve validation consistently and reduce converge errors. During the fuzzification process, pre-convergence from unavailable appraisal sequences is eliminated. The PA2M approach determines precise improvements and evaluations depending on student ability by merging prior and current data. Several appraisal validations and verifications result in clear fresh suggestions. According to experimental data, the suggested model enhances 9.79% of recommendation rates, 8.79% of appraisal verification, 8.25% of convergence factor, 12.56% error ratio, and verification time with 8.77% over a range of inputs. The PA2M model provides a fresh and useful way to evaluate English learning potential, filling in some gaps in the body of knowledge and practice. Show more

Abstract: Foreign objects identification in the distribution network is an important link in the security of electric power, and is of great significance to the normal transportation of electric power. At present, a lot of equipment in the distribution network is in the open air environment, facing a large number of foreign interference. These foreign objects not only bring potential safety hazards to the distribution network, but also easily lead to short circuit, causing power supply difficulties within the region. Therefore, the research first constructs an optimized triplet feature learning model. On this basis, the HOG-SVM depth feature recognition model is …proposed. In HOG-SVM, AM is introduced to improve recognition accuracy. In addition, the research enhances the night vision ability of the model by standardizing the features in the image region block. The results show that the AP of the model is stable at more than 90.54%, the average FPR is 2.21%, and the average FNR is 3.17% . The performance of HOG-SVM is significantly better than that of traditional SVM. It verifies the contribution of this research in the field of foreign object recognition and application value in ensuring the security of distribution network. Show more

Abstract: Reliable and accurate short-term forecasting of residential load plays an important role in DSM. However, the high uncertainty inherent in single-user loads makes them difficult to forecast accurately. Various traditional methods have been used to address the problem of residential load forecasting. A single load forecast model in the traditional method does not allow for comprehensive learning of data characteristics for residential loads, and utilizing RNNs faces the problem of long-term memory with vanishing or exploding gradients in backpropagation. Therefore, a gated GRU combined model based on multi-objective optimization is proposed to improve the short-term residential load forecasting accuracy in …this paper. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness, GRUCC-MOP is first experimentally tested with the unimproved model to verify the model performance and forecasting effectiveness. Secondly the method is evaluated experimentally with other excellent forecasting methods: models such as DBN, LSTM, GRU, EMD-DBN and EMD-MODBN. By comparing simulation experiments, the proposed GRU combined model can get better results in terms of MAPE on January, April, July, and November load data, so this proposed method has better performance than other research methods in short-term residential load forecasting.

Abstract: An improved Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm, named IACO, is proposed to address the inherent limitation of slow convergence, susceptibility to local optima and excessive number of inflection in traditional ACO when solving path planning problems. To this end, firstly, the search direction number is expanded from 4 or 8 into 32; Secondly, the distance heuristic information is replaced by an area heuristic function, which deviated from the traditional approach that only considers pheromone information between two points; Then, the influence of path angle and number of turns is taken into account in the local pheromone update. Additionally, a reward …and punishment mechanism is employed in the global pheromone update to adjust the pheromone concentrations of different paths; Furthermore, an adaptive update strategy for pheromone volatility factor adaptive is proposed to expand the search range of the algorithm. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted under various scenarios to verify the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Show more

Abstract: NLP, or natural language processing, is a subfield of AI that aims to equip computers with the ability to understand and analyze human language. Sentiment analysis is a widely used application of NLP, particularly for examining attitudes expressed in online conversations. Nevertheless, many social media comments are written in languages that are not native to the authors, making sentiment analysis more difficult, especially for languages with limited resources, such as Tamil. To tackle this issue, a code-mixed and sentiment-annotated corpus in Tamil and English was created. This article will explain how the corpus was established, including the process of data …collection and the assignment of polarities. The article will also explore the agreement between annotators and the results of sentiment analysis performed on the corpus. This work signifies various performance metrics such as precision, recall, support, and F1-score for the transformer-based model such as BERT, RoBerta, and XLM-RoBerta. Among the various models, XLM-Robert shows slightly significant positive results on the code-mixed corpus when compared to the state of art models. Show more

Abstract: The conventional approaches to constructing Prediction Intervals (PIs) always follow the principle of ‘high coverage and narrow width’. However, the deviation information has been largely neglected, making the PIs unsatisfactory. For high-risk forecasting tasks, the cost of forecast failure may be prohibitive. To address this, this work introduces a multi-objective loss function that includes Prediction Interval Accumulation Deviation (PIAD) within the Lower Upper Bound Estimation (LUBE) framework. The proposed model can achieve the goal of ‘high coverage, narrow width, and small bias’ in PIs, thus minimizing costs even in cases of prediction failure. A salient feature of the LUBE framework …is its ability to discern uncertainty without explicit uncertainty labels, where the data uncertainty and model uncertainty are learned by Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and a model ensemble, respectively. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated through its application to the prediction of carbon prices in China. Compared with conventional uncertainty quantification methods, the improved interval optimization method can achieve narrower PI widths. Show more

Abstract: To address this storage issue, we propose a Content-Aware Deduplication Clustering Analysis for Cloud Storage Optimization (CADC-FPRLE) based on a file partitioning running length encoder. At first, preprocessing was done by indexing, counting terms, cleansing, and tokenizing. Further multi-objective clustering points are analysed based on the bisecting divisible partition block, which divides a set of documents. The count terms are filtered from the divisible blocks and make up the count terms content block. Using Content-Aware Multi-Hash Ensemble Clustering (CAMH-EC) to group the similar blocks into clusters. This creates a high-dimensional Euclidean interval to create the number of clusters, and points …are performed randomly to set the initial collection. Then, the Magnitude Vector Space Rate (MVSR) estimates the similarity distance between the groups to select the highest scatter value content for indexing. Finally, the Running Block Parity Encoder (RBPE) generates similarity parity in order to reduce the content to a redundant, singularized file in order to optimise storage. This implementation proves a higher level of storage optimization compared to the previous system than other methods. Show more

Abstract: Epilepsy is considered a most general neurological disorder related to brain activity disruption. In epileptic seizures detection and classification, EEG (Electroencephalogram) measurements that record the brain’s electrical activities are used frequently. Generally, physicians investigate the abnormalities in the brain. However, this technique is time-consuming, faced complexity in seizure detection, and poor consistency because of data imbalance. To overcome these difficulties, Improved Empirical Mode Decomposition for feature extraction and Improved Weight Updated KNN (K-Nearest Neighbor) algorithm for classification are proposed. In the case of pre-processing, a rule-based filter, namely a wiener scalar filter with integer wavelet transform is used for multiple …channels conversion and further signal to noise ratio is increased. Further in feature extraction, better features are extracted using an improved empirical mode decomposition-based bandpass filter. By using the Improved Weight updated KNN, feature extracted samples are classified incorrect manner, avoiding data imbalance issues. Feature vectors’ effective classification is performed attains higher computational speed and sensitivity. The EEG input signal of the proposed study utilizing the BONN dataset and different performance metrics such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, recall, f-score, and error values were performed and compared with various existing studies. From the results, it is clear that the proposed method provides effective detection for seizure and non-seizure patients compared with existing studies. Show more
