Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Cancer Detection and Classification: Review Study

Cancer is the general name for a group of more than 100 diseases. Although cancer includes different types of diseases, they all start because abnormal cells grow out of control. Without treatment, cancer can cause serious health problems and even loss of life. Early detection of cancer may reduce mortality and morbidity. This paper presents a review of the detection methods for lung, breast, and brain cancers. These methods used for diagnosis include artificial intelligence techniques, such as support vector machine neural network, artificial neural network, fuzzy logic, and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system, with medical imaging like X-ray, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and computed tomography scan images. Imaging techniques are the most important approach for precise diagnosis of human cancer. We investigated all these techniques to identify a method that can provide superior accuracy and determine the best medical images for use in each type of cancer

Forecasting seasonal time series with computational intelligence: on recent methods and the potential of their combinations

Accurate time series forecasting is a key issue to support individual and or- ganizational decision making. In this paper, we introduce novel methods for multi-step seasonal time series forecasting. All the presented methods stem from computational intelligence techniques: evolutionary artificial neu- ral networks, support vector machines and genuine linguistic fuzzy rules. Performance of the suggested methods is experimentally justified on sea- sonal time series from distinct domains on three forecasting horizons. The most important contribution is the introduction of a new hybrid combination using linguistic fuzzy rules and the other computational intelligence methods. This hybrid combination presents competitive forecasts, when compared with the popular ARIMA method. Moreover, such hybrid model is more easy to interpret by decision-makers when modeling trended series.The research was supported by the European Regional Development Fund in the IT4Innovations Centre of Excellence project (CZ.1.05/1.1.00/02.0070).

Comparison of machine learning algorithms for EMG signal classification

The use of muscle activation signals in the control loop in biomechatronics systems is extremely important for effective and stable control. One of the methods used for this purpose is motion classification using electromyography (EMG) signals that reflect muscle activation. Classifying these signals with variable amplitude and frequency is a difficult process. On the other hand, EMG signal characteristics change over time depending on the person, task and duration. Various artificial intelligence-based methods are used for movement classification. One of these methods is machine learning. In this study, a total of 24 different models of 6 main machine learning algorithms were used for motion classification. With these models, 7 different wrist movements (rest, grip, flexion, extension, radial deviation, ulnar deviation, expanded palm) are classified. Test studies were carried out with 8 channels of EMG data taken from 4 subjects. Classification performances were compared in terms of classification accuracy and training time parameters. According to the simulation results, the Ensemble algorithm Bagged Trees model has been shown to have the highest classification performance with an average classification accuracy of 98.55%

Corporate Credit Risk Assessment of BIST Companies

Assessing credit risk allows financial institutions to plan future loans freely, to achieve targeted risk management and gain maximum profitability. In this study, the constructed risk assessment models are on a sample data which consists of financial ratios of enterprises listed in the Bourse Istanbul (BIST). 356 enterprises are classified into three levels as the investment, speculative and below investment groups by ten parameters. The applied methods are discriminant analysis, k nearest neighbor (k-NN), support vector machines (SVM), decision trees (DT) and a new hybrid model, namely Artificial Neural Networks with Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS). This study will provide a comparison of models to build better mechanisms for preventing risk to minimize the loss arising from defaults. The results indicated that the decision tree models achieve a superior accuracy for the prediction of failure. The model we proposed as an innovation has an adequate performance among the applied model

Utilizing an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) for overcrowding level risk assessment in railway stations

The railway network plays a significant role (both economically and socially) in assisting the reduction of urban traffic congestion. It also accelerates the decarbonization in cities, societies and built environments. To ensure the safe and secure operation of stations and capture the real-time risk status, it is imperative to consider a dynamic and smart method for managing risk factors in stations. In this research, a framework to develop an intelligent system for managing risk is suggested. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is proposed as a powerful, intelligently selected model to improve risk management and manage uncertainties in risk variables. The objective of this study is twofold. First, we review current methods applied to predict the risk level in the flow. Second, we develop smart risk assessment and management measures (or indicators) to improve our understanding of the safety of railway stations in real-time. Two parameters are selected as input for the risk level relating to overcrowding: the transfer efficiency and retention rate of the platform. This study is the world’s first to establish the hybrid artificial intelligence (AI) model, which has the potency to manage risk uncertainties and learns through artificial neural networks (ANNs) by integrated training processes. The prediction result shows very high accuracy in predicting the risk level performance, and proves the AI model capabilities to learn, to make predictions, and to capture risk level values in real time. Such risk information is extremely critical for decision making processes in managing safety and risks, especially when uncertain disruptions incur (e.g., COVID-19, disasters, etc.). The novel insights stemmed from this study will lead to more effective and efficient risk management for single and clustered railway station facilities towards safer, smarter, and more resilient transportation systems

Hybrid System of Tiered Multivariate Analysis and Artificial Neural Network for Coronary Heart Disease Diagnosis

Improved system performance diagnosis of coronary heart disease becomes an important topic in research for several decades. One improvement would be done by features selection, so only the attributes that influence is used in the diagnosis system using data mining algorithms. Unfortunately, the most feature selection is done with the assumption has provided all the necessary attributes, regardless of the stage of obtaining the attribute, and cost required. This research proposes a hybrid model system for diagnosis of coronary heart disease. System diagnosis preceded the feature selection process, using tiered multivariate analysis. The analytical method used is logistic regression. The next stage, the classification by using multi-layer perceptron neural network.

Sentiment Analysis Regarding Candidate Presidential 2024 Using Support Vector Machine Backpropagation Based

This research has the potential to make an important contribution to the development of computationally-based sentiment analysis, particularly in the political context. Anies Baswedan, Ganjar Pranowo, and Prabowo Subianto, three candidates for the presidency of Indonesia, are examined using a Backpropagation-based Support Vector Machine (SVM) methodology in this study. This approach is used to categorize emotions into three groups: neutral, adverse, and favorable. Between July 1 and July 30, 2023, data on tweets mentioning the three presidential contenders was gathered. After processing the data, SVM was used while lowering the backpropagation process. The study's findings demonstrate that the performance of the model in determining public sentiment is greatly enhanced by the application of backpropagation-based SVM techniques. For each presidential contender, the evaluation was conducted using the f1 score, recall, and precision metrics. The evaluation's findings indicate that while the model struggles to distinguish between favorable and negative feelings toward particular presidential contenders, it performs better when categorizing neutral feelings. The SVM model is more accurately able to identify popular sentiment toward the three presidential candidates when the backpropagation approach is used. The results of the sentiment analysis are also represented by word clouds for each presidential contender, giving an intuitive sense of the words that are frequently used in public discourse. This study sheds light on the possibilities of using Twitter data to analyze political sentiment using the backpropagation-based SVM algorithm.
