Uma abordagem computacional para preenchimento de falhas em dados micro meteorológicos

Estações micro meteorológicas utilizam equipamentos para captar dados sobre fenômenos climatológicos. Essa captação está sujeita a falhas e influências externas que ocasiona ausência de dados no conjunto de dados gerados. Técnicas matemáticas e computacionais são comumente usadas com o objetivo de preencher essas falhas nos dados. Este trabalho apresenta uma abordagem computacional que utiliza técnica de redes neurais, combinada com algoritmos genéticos, aplicada a dados reais com o objetivo de preencher falhas em séries de temperatura em uma região de cerrado no estado de Mato Grosso. Nos testes realizados, os coeficientes de correlação variaram entre 0,79 e 0,96 e o erro médio absoluto entre de 0,62 e 1,22, mostrando um bom desempenho da rede neural para uma série de dados com valores ausentes

Artificial Neural Network and Genetic Algorithm Hybrid Intelligence for Predicting Thai Stock Price Index Trend

This study investigated the use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) for prediction of Thailand’s SET50 index trend. ANN is a widely accepted machine learning method that uses past data to predict future trend, while GA is an algorithm that can find better subsets of input variables for importing into ANN, hence enabling more accurate prediction by its efficient feature selection. The imported data were chosen technical indicators highly regarded by stock analysts, each represented by 4 input variables that were based on past time spans of 4 different lengths: 3-, 5-, 10-, and 15-day spans before the day of prediction. This import undertaking generated a big set of diverse input variables with an exponentially higher number of possible subsets that GA culled down to a manageable number of more effective ones. SET50 index data of the past 6 years, from 2009 to 2014, were used to evaluate this hybrid intelligence prediction accuracy, and the hybrid’s prediction results were found to be more accurate than those made by a method using only one input variable for one fixed length of past time span

Hybrid learning-based model for exaggeration style of facial caricature

Prediction of facial caricature based on exaggeration style of a particular artist is a significant task in computer generated caricature in order to produce an artistic facial caricature that is very similar to the real artist’s work without the need for skilled user (artist) input. The exaggeration style of an artist is difficult to be coded in algorithmic method. Fortunately, artificial neural network, which possesses self-learning and generalization ability, has shown great promise in addressing the problem of capturing and learning an artist’s style to predict a facial caricature. However, one of the main issues faced by this study is inconsistent artist style due to human factors and limited collection on image-caricature pair data. Thus, this study proposes facial caricature dataset preparation process to get good quality dataset which captures the artist’s exaggeration style and a hybrid model to generalize the inconsistent style so that a better, more accurate prediction can be obtained even using small amount of dataset. The proposed data preparation process involves facial features parameter extraction based on landmark-based geometric morphometric and modified data normalization method based on Procrustes superimposition method. The proposed hybrid model (BP-GANN) combines Backpropagation Neural Network (BPNN) and Genetic Algorithm Neural Network (GANN). The experimental result shows that the proposed hybrid BP-GANN model is outperform the traditional hybrid GA-BPNN model, individual BPNN model and individual GANN model. The modified Procrustes superimposition method also produces a better quality dataset than the original one

Personality Identification from Social Media Using Deep Learning: A Review

Social media helps in sharing of ideas and information among people scattered around the world and thus helps in creating communities, groups, and virtual networks. Identification of personality is significant in many types of applications such as in detecting the mental state or character of a person, predicting job satisfaction, professional and personal relationship success, in recommendation systems. Personality is also an important factor to determine individual variation in thoughts, feelings, and conduct systems. According to the survey of Global social media research in 2018, approximately 3.196 billion social media users are in worldwide. The numbers are estimated to grow rapidly further with the use of mobile smart devices and advancement in technology. Support vector machine (SVM), Naive Bayes (NB), Multilayer perceptron neural network, and convolutional neural network (CNN) are some of the machine learning techniques used for personality identification in the literature review. This paper presents various studies conducted in identifying the personality of social media users with the help of machine learning approaches and the recent studies that targeted to predict the personality of online social media (OSM) users are reviewed
