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...
Identification of the correct medicinal plants that goes in to the preparation of a medicine is very important in ayurvedic medicinal industry. The main features required to identify a medicinal plant is its leaf shape, colour and texture. Colour and texture from both sides of the leaf contain deterministic parameters to identify the species. This paper explores feature vectors from both the front...
In this modern era of communication, people are always connected to the internet. Hence, everyone tends to express their opinions on social media or e-commerce websites about commercial products, movies, sports, social and geopolitical matters and even on government policies. These opinions reflect the corresponding person's view or sentiment about that particular matter, which ultimately leads to...
Identifying emotional polarization in a medical report is important in screening, acquiring and synthesizing knowledge of physicians before making a clinical decision. We consider this as a classification problem whose input is a set of sentences collected from medical articles and output is the polarization of each sentence labeled as a positive, negative or neutral one. In this paper, we propose...
In Face recognition, a combination of neural network (NN), known as an ensemble of neural network, often outperforms individual ones. This paper is aiming to present a support vector machines (SVM)-ensemble-based efficient face recognition system. The training samples are randomly chosen by means of bootstrap technique to train the different SVM independently. These SVM's are combined together to...
In recent years the use of wireless ad hoc networks has seen an increase of applications. A big part of the research has focused on Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MAnETs), due to its implementations in vehicular networks, battlefield communications, among others. These peer-to-peer networks usually test novel communications protocols, but leave out the network security part. A wide range of attacks can happen...
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) are supervised learning models of the machine learning field whose performance strongly depended on its hyperparameters. The Bio-inspired Optimization Tool for SVM (BIOTS) tool is based on a Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Algorithm (MOPSO) to tune hyperparameters of SVMs. In this work, BIOTS is proposed along with a custom hardware design generator (VHDL) that implements...
Pedestrian detection is one of the most challenging and vital tasks of driver assistance systems (DAS). Among several algorithms developed for human detection, histogram of oriented gradients (HOG) followed by support vector machine (SVM) has shown the most promising results. This paper presents a hardware accelerator for real-time pedestrian detection at different scales to fulfill the real-time...
For remote sensing image understanding, target detection is one of the most important tasks. In this paper, we propose one object detection method based on region proposal detection via active contour model and detection based on one-class classification method. The large scale remote sensing image is split into several connected components. And then, the proposed algorithm detects the object from...
Brain tumor segmentation from magnetic resonance images is a critical step for early tumor diagnosis and treatment. However, accurate and general segmentation of brain tumor is still a challenging task due to complicated characteristics of brain tumor in magnetic resonance images. To solve this problem, we proposed a novel method for brain tumor segmentation based on features of separated local square...
The deep learning is a popular research direction in machine learning field now. In this paper, the deep learning algorithms are used to recognize the underwater target radiated noises. The deep belief network (DBN) model and the stacked denoising autoencoder (SDAE) model are built respectively. Then the underwater acoustic simulated data of different types of targets as well as different states of...
Manual wafer-level die inking is a common procedure for excluding die locations that are likely to be defective. Although this is a more cost-effective process, as compared to the expensive burn-in tests, it remains a labor-intensive step during IC testing. For each manufactured wafer, test engineers have to visually inspect every failure map in order to identify any regions where additional die need...
Diabetes is one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide, and hundreds of millions of patients are suffering from diabetes and its serious complications. Early detection and early treatment are urgent needed for clinical diagnosis of diabetics. In this work, we establish a gene coexpression network framework to identify biomarkers of transcripts with highly different gene coexpression patterns in...
Hand gesture recognition is highly valued for its potential applications in contactless human-computer interaction (HCI). Aiming at the problem that the gesture recognition system based on ordinary camera is susceptible to different lighting conditions and complex background environment, an improved algorithm based on depth image for fingertip detection and gesture recognition is proposed. Firstly,...

There are many species of tomato diseases and pests, and the pathology of which is complex. It is difficult and error-prone to simply rely on manual identification. For the ten most common tomato diseases and pests in China, This paper explores the detection algorithms on leaf images and constructs the convolution neural network model to detect tomato pests and diseases based on VGG16[8] and transfer...
Early detection and monitoring of heart diseases increase human quality of life and this can prevent negative consequences. It is even more important because it can prevent sudden deaths. In today's technology, these operations can be done with telemedicine systems. In this work, appropriate methods have been proposed for telemedicine systems. The proposed system is of two classes and is based on...
The goal of complex event detection is to automatically detect whether an event of interest happens in temporally untrimmed long videos which usually consist of multiple video shots. Observing some video shots in positive (resp. negative) videos are irrelevant (resp. relevant) to the given event class, we formulate this task as a multi-instance learning (MIL) problem by taking each video as a bag...
Human activity recognition (HAR) has a wide range of applications, such as monitoring ambulatory patients' recovery, workers for harmful movement patterns, or elderly populations for falls. These systems often operate in an environment where battery lifespan, power consumption, and hence computational complexity, are of prime concern. This work explores three methods for reducing the dimensionality...
