Fingerprinting Localization Solutions (FPSs) enjoy huge popularity due to their good performance and minimal environment information requirement. Considered as a data-driven approach, many modern data analytics can be used to improve its performance. In this paper, we propose tow learning algorithms, namely a deep learning architecture for regression and Support Vector Machine (SVM) for classification,...
Nowadays, text classification (TC) becomes the main applications of NLP (natural language processing). Actually, we have a lot of researches in classifying text documents, such as Random Forest, Support Vector Machines and Naive Bayes. However, most of them are applied for English documents. Therefore, the text classification researches on Vietnamese still are limited. By using a Vietnamese news corpus,...
This paper proposes support vector machine (SVM) based fuzzy filter for restoration of corrupted images from impulse noise in color image domain. In this proposed filter, filtering technique is performed using channel by channel operation on the corrupted pixel (R, G, and B channel separately). In this work, the system has been trained with the optimal feature set. During the testing phase, pixels...
Protein-DNA docking is an important computational technique for generating native or near-native complex models. A docking program typically generates a number of complex conformations and predicts the docking solution based on interaction energies. However, incomplete sampling and energy function deficiencies can result in false positive protein-DNA complex models, which hampers its application in...
Down syndrome (DS) is a genetic disorder with genome dosage imbalances and micro-duplications of human chromosome 21. It is usually associated with a group of serious diseases, including intellectual disabilities, cardiac diseases, physical abnormalities, and other abnormalities. Currently, since there is no cure for human DS, screening and early detection have become the most efficient way for DS...
Support vector data description (SVDD) is a popular technique for detecting anomalies. The SVDD classifier partitions the whole space into an inlier region, which consists of the region near the training data, and an outlier region, which consists of points away from the training data. The computation of the SVDD classifier requires a kernel function, and the Gaussian kernel is a common choice for...
Class imbalance exists in many applications of bioinformatics and biomedicine, while dimension reduction in the feature space is often needed when building prediction models on a dataset. When the above two issues need to be considered simultaneously for skewed/imbalanced datasets, practitioners and researchers in machine learning may raise the following question: should feature selection be conducted...
Predicting early signs of illness in older adults by utilizing a continuous, unobtrusive nursing home monitoring system has been shown to increase the quality of life and decrease the cost of care. Illness prediction is based on sensor data such as motion and bed and uses algorithms such as support vector machine (SVM) or k-nearest neighbor (kNN). One of the greatest challenges in developing prediction...
Aerosol optical depth (AOD), one of the key factors affecting the atmosphere visibility, has great influence on the prediction of radiation intensity and photovoltaic power generation. Considering the problem that AOD is difficult to obtain real-timely and conveniently with high accuracy, in this paper, PM2.5 concentration, PM10 concentration and temperature, wind speed grade and relative humidity...
In the past few years, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been increasingly gaining impact in the real world with with various applications such as healthcare, condition monitoring, control networks, etc. Anomaly detection in WSNs is an important aspect of data analysis in order to identify data items which does not conform to an expected pattern or other items in a dataset. This paper describes...
Gender is one of the most useful facial attributes which are detected from human face images. In this work, we introduce a new gender classification system based on features extracted by Local Phase Quantization (LPQ) operators from intensity and Monogenic images. More detailed, the LPQ features are obtained from the input image (the intensity one) and from three other Monogenic components in the...
Extracting and recognizing mathematical expressions of scientific documents are key steps in the process of mathematical retrieval system, where the documents contain different components such as text, tables, figures, and mathematical expressions. There are several methods proposed to handle the components of documents. Those methods have investigated the feature of components based on the segmented...
Embedded computer vision applications have been incorporated in industrial automation, improving quality and safety of processes. Such systems involve pattern classifiers for specific functions that, many times, demand high memory footprint and processing time. This work suggests a strategy to choose GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) features for an SVM classifier that can reduce computer resources...
The rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technology provides unique opportunities for studies of transcription factor binding, while also bringing new computational challenges. Recently, a series of discriminative motif discovery (DMD) methods have been proposed and offer promising solutions for addressing these challenges. However, because of the huge computational cost, most of them have...
The paper considers the problem of feature selection in learning using privileged information (LUPI), where some of the features (referred to as privileged ones) are only available for training, while being absent for test data. In the latest implementation of LUPI, these privileged features are approximated using regressions constructed on standard data features, but this approach could lead to polluting...
One of the most current challenging problems in Gaussian process regression (GPR) is to handle large-scale datasets and to accommodate an online learning setting where data arrive irregularly on the fly. In this paper, we introduce a novel online Gaussian process model that could scale with massive datasets. Our approach is formulated based on alternative representation of the Gaussian process under...
Handwritten character recognition is an essential part of optical character recognition domain. Bangla handwritten compound character recognition is a complex task that is challenging due to extensive size of and sheer diversity within the alphabet. The current work proposes a novel method of recognition of compound characters in Bangla language using deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) and...
Skin segmentation, which involves detecting human skin areas in an image, is an important process for skin disease analysis. The aim of this paper is to identify the skin regions in a newly collected set of psoriasis images. For this purpose, we present a committee of machine learning (ML) classifiers. A psoriasis training set is first collected by using pixel values in five different color spaces...
Digital cameras and smartphones with orientation sensors enable portrait images to rotate automatically. This is done by using an image file's metadata, which is in the exchangeable image file format (EXIF). The output of these sensors is used to set the EXIF orientation. Unfortunately, software program support for this feature is not widespread or consistently applied. Our research goals are to create...
Machine learning classifiers help physicians to make near-perfect diagnoses, minimizing costs and time. Since medical data usually contains a high degree of uncertainty and ambiguity, proper ordering and classification require a proper comparative performance analysis of machine learning classifiers. Machine learning classifiers are applied on the Ovarian Cancer Dataset. Ovarian cancer is the fifth...
