In this study, we propose cross entropy as a performance evaluation metric for image classifier models and apply it to the CT image classification of lung cancer. A convolutional neural network is employed as the deep neural network (DNN) image classifier, with the residual network (ResNet) 50 chosen as the DNN archi-tecture. The image data used comprise a lung CT image set. Two classification models are built from datasets with varying amounts of data, and lung cancer is categorized into four classes using 10-fold cross-validation. Furthermore, we employ t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding to visually explain the data distribution after classification. Experimental results demonstrate that cross en-tropy is a highly useful metric for evaluating the reliability of image classifier models. It is noted that for a more comprehensive evaluation of model perfor-mance, combining with other evaluation metrics is considered essential. .展开更多

Attackers ...Phishing is the act of attempting to steal a user’s financial and personal information, such as credit card numbers and passwords by pretending to be a trustworthy participant, during online communication. Attackers may direct the users to a fake website that could seem legitimate, and then gather useful and confidential information using that site. In order to protect users from Social Engineering techniques such as phishing, various measures have been developed, including improvement of Technical Security. In this paper, we propose a new technique, namely, “A Prediction Model for the Detection of Phishing e-mails using Topic Modelling, Named Entity Recognition and Image Processing”. The features extracted are Topic Modelling features, Named Entity features and Structural features. A multi-classifier prediction model is used to detect the phishing mails. Experimental results show that the multi-classification technique outperforms the single-classifier-based prediction techniques. The resultant accuracy of the detection of phishing e-mail is 99% with the highest False Positive Rate being 2.1%.展开更多

Data preprocessing ...Machine learning techniques and a dataset of five wells from the Rawat oilfield in Sudan containing 93,925 samples per feature(seven well logs and one facies log) were used to classify four facies. Data preprocessing and preparation involve two processes: data cleaning and feature scaling. Several machine learning algorithms, including Linear Regression(LR), Decision Tree(DT), Support Vector Machine(SVM),Random Forest(RF), and Gradient Boosting(GB) for classification, were tested using different iterations and various combinations of features and parameters. The support vector radial kernel training model achieved an accuracy of 72.49% without grid search and 64.02% with grid search, while the blind-well test scores were 71.01% and 69.67%, respectively. The Decision Tree(DT) Hyperparameter Optimization model showed an accuracy of 64.15% for training and 67.45% for testing. In comparison, the Decision Tree coupled with grid search yielded better results, with a training score of 69.91% and a testing score of67.89%. The model's validation was carried out using the blind well validation approach, which achieved an accuracy of 69.81%. Three algorithms were used to generate the gradient-boosting model. During training, the Gradient Boosting classifier achieved an accuracy score of 71.57%, and during testing, it achieved 69.89%. The Grid Search model achieved a higher accuracy score of 72.14% during testing. The Extreme Gradient Boosting model had the lowest accuracy score, with only 66.13% for training and66.12% for testing. For validation, the Gradient Boosting(GB) classifier model achieved an accuracy score of 75.41% on the blind well test, while the Gradient Boosting with Grid Search achieved an accuracy score of 71.36%. The Enhanced Random Forest and Random Forest with Bagging algorithms were the most effective, with validation accuracies of 78.30% and 79.18%, respectively. However, the Random Forest and Random Forest with Grid Search models displayed significant variance between their training and testing scores, indicating the potential for overfitting. Random Forest(RF) and Gradient Boosting(GB) are highly effective for facies classification because they handle complex relationships and provide high predictive accuracy. The choice between the two depends on specific project requirements, including interpretability, computational resources, and data nature.展开更多

文摘Human activity recognition is a significant area of research in artificial intelligence for surveillance,healthcare,sports,and human-computer interaction applications.The article benchmarks the performance of You Only Look Once version 11-based(YOLOv11-based)architecture for multi-class human activity recognition.The article benchmarks the performance of You Only Look Once version 11-based(YOLOv11-based)architecture for multi-class human activity recognition.The dataset consists of 14,186 images across 19 activity classes,from dynamic activities such as running and swimming to static activities such as sitting and sleeping.Preprocessing included resizing all images to 512512 pixels,annotating them in YOLO’s bounding box format,and applying data augmentation methods such as flipping,rotation,and cropping to enhance model generalization.The proposed model was trained for 100 epochs with adaptive learning rate methods and hyperparameter optimization for performance improvement,with a mAP@0.5 of 74.93%and a mAP@0.5-0.95 of 64.11%,outperforming previous versions of YOLO(v10,v9,and v8)and general-purpose architectures like ResNet50 and EfficientNet.It exhibited improved precision and recall for all activity classes with high precision values of 0.76 for running,0.79 for swimming,0.80 for sitting,and 0.81 for sleeping,and was tested for real-time deployment with an inference time of 8.9 ms per image,being computationally light.Proposed YOLOv11’s improvements are attributed to architectural advancements like a more complex feature extraction process,better attention modules,and an anchor-free detection mechanism.While YOLOv10 was extremely stable in static activity recognition,YOLOv9 performed well in dynamic environments but suffered from overfitting,and YOLOv8,while being a decent baseline,failed to differentiate between overlapping static activities.The experimental results determine proposed YOLOv11 to be the most appropriate model,providing an ideal balance between accuracy,computational efficiency,and robustness for real-world deployment.Nevertheless,there exist certain issues to be addressed,particularly in discriminating against visually similar activities and the use of publicly available datasets.Future research will entail the inclusion of 3D data and multimodal sensor inputs,such as depth and motion information,for enhancing recognition accuracy and generalizability to challenging real-world environments.
文摘The categorization of brain tumors is a significant issue for healthcare applications.Perfect and timely identification of brain tumors is important for employing an effective treatment of this disease.Brain tumors possess high changes in terms of size,shape,and amount,and hence the classification process acts as a more difficult research problem.This paper suggests a deep learning model using the magnetic resonance imaging technique that overcomes the limitations associated with the existing classification methods.The effectiveness of the suggested method depends on the coyote optimization algorithm,also known as the LOBO algorithm,which optimizes the weights of the deep-convolutional neural network classifier.The accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity indices,which are obtained to be 92.40%,94.15%,and 91.92%,respectively,are used to validate the effectiveness of the suggested method.The result suggests that the suggested strategy is superior for effectively classifying brain tumors.
文摘Phishing is the act of attempting to steal a user’s financial and personal information, such as credit card numbers and passwords by pretending to be a trustworthy participant, during online communication. Attackers may direct the users to a fake website that could seem legitimate, and then gather useful and confidential information using that site. In order to protect users from Social Engineering techniques such as phishing, various measures have been developed, including improvement of Technical Security. In this paper, we propose a new technique, namely, “A Prediction Model for the Detection of Phishing e-mails using Topic Modelling, Named Entity Recognition and Image Processing”. The features extracted are Topic Modelling features, Named Entity features and Structural features. A multi-classifier prediction model is used to detect the phishing mails. Experimental results show that the multi-classification technique outperforms the single-classifier-based prediction techniques. The resultant accuracy of the detection of phishing e-mail is 99% with the highest False Positive Rate being 2.1%.

文摘The increasing risk of ground pressure disasters resulting from deep well mining highlights the urgent need for advanced monitoring and early warning systems.Ground pressure monitoring,supported by microseismic technology,plays a pivotal role in ensuring mine safety by enabling real-time identifi cation and accurate classification of vibration signals such as microseismic signals,blasting signals,and noise.These classifications are critical for improving the efficacy of ground pressure monitoring systems,conducting stability analyses of deep rock masses,and implementing timely and precise roadway support measures.Such eff orts are essential for mitigating ground pressure disasters and ensuring safe mining operations.This study proposes an artificial intelligence-based automatic classification network model for mine vibration signals.Based on conventional convolutional neural networks,the proposed model further incorporates long short-term memory(LSTM)networks and attention mechanisms.The LSTM component eff ectively captures temporal correlations in time-series mining vibration data,while the attention mechanism enhances the models’ability to focus on critical features within the data.To validate the eff ectiveness of our proposed model,a dataset comprising 480,526 waveform records collected in 2022 by the microseismic monitoring system at Guangxi Shanhu Tungsten Mine was used for training,validation,and testing purposes.Results demonstrate that the proposed artifi cial intelligence-based classifi cation method achieves a higher recognition accuracy of 92.21%,significantly outperforming traditional manual classification methods.The proposed model represents a signifi cant advancement in ground pressure monitoring and disaster mitigation.
文摘Machine learning techniques and a dataset of five wells from the Rawat oilfield in Sudan containing 93,925 samples per feature(seven well logs and one facies log) were used to classify four facies. Data preprocessing and preparation involve two processes: data cleaning and feature scaling. Several machine learning algorithms, including Linear Regression(LR), Decision Tree(DT), Support Vector Machine(SVM),Random Forest(RF), and Gradient Boosting(GB) for classification, were tested using different iterations and various combinations of features and parameters. The support vector radial kernel training model achieved an accuracy of 72.49% without grid search and 64.02% with grid search, while the blind-well test scores were 71.01% and 69.67%, respectively. The Decision Tree(DT) Hyperparameter Optimization model showed an accuracy of 64.15% for training and 67.45% for testing. In comparison, the Decision Tree coupled with grid search yielded better results, with a training score of 69.91% and a testing score of67.89%. The model's validation was carried out using the blind well validation approach, which achieved an accuracy of 69.81%. Three algorithms were used to generate the gradient-boosting model. During training, the Gradient Boosting classifier achieved an accuracy score of 71.57%, and during testing, it achieved 69.89%. The Grid Search model achieved a higher accuracy score of 72.14% during testing. The Extreme Gradient Boosting model had the lowest accuracy score, with only 66.13% for training and66.12% for testing. For validation, the Gradient Boosting(GB) classifier model achieved an accuracy score of 75.41% on the blind well test, while the Gradient Boosting with Grid Search achieved an accuracy score of 71.36%. The Enhanced Random Forest and Random Forest with Bagging algorithms were the most effective, with validation accuracies of 78.30% and 79.18%, respectively. However, the Random Forest and Random Forest with Grid Search models displayed significant variance between their training and testing scores, indicating the potential for overfitting. Random Forest(RF) and Gradient Boosting(GB) are highly effective for facies classification because they handle complex relationships and provide high predictive accuracy. The choice between the two depends on specific project requirements, including interpretability, computational resources, and data nature.
