Traditional single-modal AI-based detection systems, which analyze both text, photos, or movies in isolation, have established useless at taking pictures multi-modal threats, in which malicious actors spread dangerous content throughout a couple of formats. To cope with these demanding situations, we advise a multi-modal deep mastering framework that integrates Natural Language Processing (NLP), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to become aware of and mitigate online threats effectively. Our proposed model combines BERT for text class, ResNet50 for photograph processing, and a hybrid LSTM-3-d CNN community for video content material analysis. We constructed a large-scale dataset comprising 500,000 textual posts, 200,000 offensive images, and 50,000 annotated motion pictures from more than one platform, which includes Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, and online gaming forums. The system became carefully evaluated using trendy gadget mastering metrics which include accuracy, precision, remember, F1-score, and ROC-AUC curves. Experimental outcomes demonstrate that our multi-modal method extensively outperforms single-modal AI classifiers, achieving an accuracy of 92.3%, precision of 91.2%, do not forget of 90.1%, and an AUC rating of 0.95. The findings validate the necessity of integrating multi-modal AI for actual-time, high-accuracy online chance detection and moderation. Future paintings will have consciousness on improving hostile robustness, enhancing scalability for real-world deployment, and addressing ethical worries associated with AI-driven content moderation.展开更多

文摘Most Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)interpretation techniques visualize only the dominant cues that the model relies on,but there is no guarantee that these represent all the evidence the model uses for classification.This limitation becomes critical when hidden secondary cues—potentially more meaningful than the visualized ones—remain undiscovered.This study introduces CasCAM(Cascaded Class Activation Mapping)to address this fundamental limitation through counterfactual reasoning.By asking“if this dominant cue were absent,what other evidence would the model use?”,CasCAM progressively masks the most salient features and systematically uncovers the hierarchy of classification evidence hidden beneath them.Experimental results demonstrate that CasCAM effectively discovers the full spectrum of reasoning evidence and can be universally applied with nine existing interpretation methods.

文摘Parkinson’s disease remains a major clinical issue in terms of early detection,especially during its prodromal stage when symptoms are not evident or not distinct.To address this problem,we proposed a new deep learning 2-based approach for detecting Parkinson’s disease before any of the overt symptoms develop during their prodromal stage.We used 5 publicly accessible datasets,including UCI Parkinson’s Voice,Spiral Drawings,PaHaW,NewHandPD,and PPMI,and implemented a dual stream CNN–BiLSTM architecture with Fisher-weighted feature merging and SHAP-based explanation.The findings reveal that the model’s performance was superior and achieved 98.2%,a F1-score of 0.981,and AUC of 0.991 on the UCI Voice dataset.The model’s performance on the remaining datasets was also comparable,with up to a 2–7 percent betterment in accuracy compared to existing strong models such as CNN–RNN–MLP,ILN–GNet,and CASENet.Across the evidence,the findings back the diagnostic promise of micro-tremor assessment and demonstrate that combining temporal and spatial features with a scatter-based segment for a multi-modal approach can be an effective and scalable platform for an“early,”interpretable PD screening system.

文摘Artificial Intelligence(AI)is changing healthcare by helping with diagnosis.However,for doctors to trust AI tools,they need to be both accurate and easy to understand.In this study,we created a new machine learning system for the early detection of Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD)in children.Our main goal was to build a model that is not only good at predicting ASD but also clear in its reasoning.For this,we combined several different models,including Random Forest,XGBoost,and Neural Networks,into a single,more powerful framework.We used two different types of datasets:(i)a standard behavioral dataset and(ii)a more complex multimodal dataset with images,audio,and physiological information.The datasets were carefully preprocessed for missing values,redundant features,and dataset imbalance to ensure fair learning.The results outperformed the state-of-the-art with a Regularized Neural Network,achieving 97.6%accuracy on behavioral data.Whereas,on the multimodal data,the accuracy is 98.2%.Other models also did well with accuracies consistently above 96%.We also used SHAP and LIME on a behavioral dataset for models’explainability.
文摘Unconfined Compressive Strength(UCS)is a key parameter for the assessment of the stability and performance of stabilized soils,yet traditional laboratory testing is both time and resource intensive.In this study,an interpretable machine learning approach to UCS prediction is presented,pairing five models(Random Forest(RF),Gradient Boosting(GB),Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGB),CatBoost,and K-Nearest Neighbors(KNN))with SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)for enhanced interpretability and to guide feature removal.A complete dataset of 12 geotechnical and chemical parameters,i.e.,Atterberg limits,compaction properties,stabilizer chemistry,dosage,curing time,was used to train and test the models.R2,RMSE,MSE,and MAE were used to assess performance.Initial results with all 12 features indicated that boosting-based models(GB,XGB,CatBoost)exhibited the highest predictive accuracy(R^(2)=0.93)with satisfactory generalization on test data,followed by RF and KNN.SHAP analysis consistently picked CaO content,curing time,stabilizer dosage,and compaction parameters as the most important features,aligning with established soil stabilization mechanisms.Models were then re-trained on the top 8 and top 5 SHAP-ranked features.Interestingly,GB,XGB,and CatBoost maintained comparable accuracy with reduced input sets,while RF was moderately sensitive and KNN was somewhat better owing to reduced dimensionality.The findings confirm that feature reduction through SHAP enables cost-effective UCS prediction through the reduction of laboratory test requirements without significant accuracy loss.The suggested hybrid approach offers an explainable,interpretable,and cost-effective tool for geotechnical engineering practice.

文摘Although machine learning models have achieved high enough accuracy in predicting shield position deviations,their“black box”nature makes the prediction mechanisms and decision-making processes opaque,leading to weaker explanations and practicability.This study introduces a novel explainable deep learning framework comprising the Informer model with enhanced attention mechanisms(EAMInfor)and deep learning important features(DeepLIFT),aimed at improving the prediction accuracy of shield position deviations and providing interpretability for predictive results.The EAMInfor model attempts to integrate channel attention,spatial attention,and simple attention modules to improve the Informer model's performance.The framework is tested with the four different geological conditions datasets generated from the Xiamen metro line 3,China.Results show that the EAMInfor model outperforms the traditional Informer and comparison models.The analysis with the DeepLIFT method indicates that the push thrust of push cylinder and the earth chamber pressure are the most significant features,while the stroke length of the push cylinder demonstrated lower importance.Furthermore,the variation trends in the significance of data points within input sequences exhibit substantial differences between single and composite strata.This framework not only improves predictive accuracy but also strengthens the credibility and reliability of the results.
文摘In the era of advanced machine learning techniques,the development of accurate predictive models for complex medical conditions,such as thyroid cancer,has shown remarkable progress.Accurate predictivemodels for thyroid cancer enhance early detection,improve resource allocation,and reduce overtreatment.However,the widespread adoption of these models in clinical practice demands predictive performance along with interpretability and transparency.This paper proposes a novel association-rule based feature-integratedmachine learning model which shows better classification and prediction accuracy than present state-of-the-artmodels.Our study also focuses on the application of SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)values as a powerful tool for explaining thyroid cancer prediction models.In the proposed method,the association-rule based feature integration framework identifies frequently occurring attribute combinations in the dataset.The original dataset is used in trainingmachine learning models,and further used in generating SHAP values fromthesemodels.In the next phase,the dataset is integrated with the dominant feature sets identified through association-rule based analysis.This new integrated dataset is used in re-training the machine learning models.The new SHAP values generated from these models help in validating the contributions of feature sets in predicting malignancy.The conventional machine learning models lack interpretability,which can hinder their integration into clinical decision-making systems.In this study,the SHAP values are introduced along with association-rule based feature integration as a comprehensive framework for understanding the contributions of feature sets inmodelling the predictions.The study discusses the importance of reliable predictive models for early diagnosis of thyroid cancer,and a validation framework of explainability.The proposed model shows an accuracy of 93.48%.Performance metrics such as precision,recall,F1-score,and the area under the receiver operating characteristic(AUROC)are also higher than the baseline models.The results of the proposed model help us identify the dominant feature sets that impact thyroid cancer classification and prediction.The features{calcification}and{shape}consistently emerged as the top-ranked features associated with thyroid malignancy,in both association-rule based interestingnessmetric values and SHAPmethods.The paper highlights the potential of the rule-based integrated models with SHAP in bridging the gap between the machine learning predictions and the interpretability of this prediction which is required for real-world medical applications.

文摘Wildfires significantly disrupt the physical and hydrologic conditions of the environment,leading to vegetation loss and altered surface geo-material properties.These complex dynamics promote post-fire gully erosion,yet the key conditioning factors(e.g.,topography,hydrology)remain insufficiently understood.This study proposes a novel artificial intelligence(AI)framework that integrates four machine learning(ML)models with Shapley Additive Explanations(SHAP)method,offering a hierarchical perspective from global to local on the dominant factors controlling gully distribution in wildfireaffected areas.In a case study of Xiangjiao catchment burned on March 28,2020,in Muli County in Sichuan Province of Southwest China,we derived 21 geoenvironmental factors to assess the susceptibility of post-fire gully erosion using logistic regression(LR),support vector machine(SVM),random forest(RF),and convolutional neural network(CNN)models.SHAP-based model interpretation revealed eight key conditioning factors:topographic position index(TPI),topographic wetness index(TWI),distance to stream,mean annual precipitation,differenced normalized burn ratio(d NBR),land use/cover,soil type,and distance to road.Comparative model evaluation demonstrated that reduced-variable models incorporating these dominant factors achieved accuracy comparable to that of the initial-variable models,with AUC values exceeding 0.868 across all ML algorithms.These findings provide critical insights into gully erosion behavior in wildfire-affected areas,supporting the decision-making process behind environmental management and hazard mitigation.

文摘Self-Explaining Autonomous Systems(SEAS)have emerged as a strategic frontier within Artificial Intelligence(AI),responding to growing demands for transparency and interpretability in autonomous decisionmaking.This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of SEAS research published between 2020 and February 2025,drawing upon 1380 documents indexed in Scopus.The analysis applies co-citation mapping,keyword co-occurrence,and author collaboration networks using VOSviewer,MASHA,and Python to examine scientific production,intellectual structure,and global collaboration patterns.The results indicate a sustained annual growth rate of 41.38%,with an h-index of 57 and an average of 21.97 citations per document.A normalized citation rate was computed to address temporal bias,enabling balanced evaluation across publication cohorts.Thematic analysis reveals four consolidated research fronts:interpretability in machine learning,explainability in deep neural networks,transparency in generative models,and optimization strategies in autonomous control.Author co-citation analysis identifies four distinct research communities,and keyword evolution shows growing interdisciplinary links with medicine,cybersecurity,and industrial automation.The United States leads in scientific output and citation impact at the geographical level,while countries like India and China show high productivity with varied influence.However,international collaboration remains limited at 7.39%,reflecting a fragmented research landscape.As discussed in this study,SEAS research is expanding rapidly yet remains epistemologically dispersed,with uneven integration of ethical and human-centered perspectives.This work offers a structured and data-driven perspective on SEAS development,highlights key contributors and thematic trends,and outlines critical directions for advancing responsible and transparent autonomous systems.
文摘In the evolving landscape of cyber threats,phishing attacks pose significant challenges,particularly through deceptive webpages designed to extract sensitive information under the guise of legitimacy.Conventional and machine learning(ML)-based detection systems struggle to detect phishing websites owing to their constantly changing tactics.Furthermore,newer phishing websites exhibit subtle and expertly concealed indicators that are not readily detectable.Hence,effective detection depends on identifying the most critical features.Traditional feature selection(FS)methods often struggle to enhance ML model performance and instead decrease it.To combat these issues,we propose an innovative method using explainable AI(XAI)to enhance FS in ML models and improve the identification of phishing websites.Specifically,we employ SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)for global perspective and aggregated local interpretable model-agnostic explanations(LIME)to deter-mine specific localized patterns.The proposed SHAP and LIME-aggregated FS(SLA-FS)framework pinpoints the most informative features,enabling more precise,swift,and adaptable phishing detection.Applying this approach to an up-to-date web phishing dataset,we evaluate the performance of three ML models before and after FS to assess their effectiveness.Our findings reveal that random forest(RF),with an accuracy of 97.41%and XGBoost(XGB)at 97.21%significantly benefit from the SLA-FS framework,while k-nearest neighbors lags.Our framework increases the accuracy of RF and XGB by 0.65%and 0.41%,respectively,outperforming traditional filter or wrapper methods and any prior methods evaluated on this dataset,showcasing its potential.

文摘Problem:The integration of Artificial Intelligence(AI)into cybersecurity,while enhancing threat detection,is hampered by the“black box”nature of complex models,eroding trust,accountability,and regulatory compliance.Explainable AI(XAI)aims to resolve this opacity but introduces a critical newvulnerability:the adversarial exploitation of model explanations themselves.Gap:Current research lacks a comprehensive synthesis of this dual role of XAI in cybersecurity—as both a tool for transparency and a potential attack vector.There is a pressing need to systematically analyze the trade-offs between interpretability and security,evaluate defense mechanisms,and outline a path for developing robust,next-generation XAI frameworks.Solution:This review provides a systematic examination of XAI techniques(e.g.,SHAP,LIME,Grad-CAM)and their applications in intrusion detection,malware analysis,and fraud prevention.It critically evaluates the security risks posed by XAI,including model inversion and explanation-guided evasion attacks,and assesses corresponding defense strategies such as adversarially robust training,differential privacy,and secure-XAI deployment patterns.Contribution:Theprimary contributions of this work are:(1)a comparative analysis of XAI methods tailored for cybersecurity contexts;(2)an identification of the critical trade-off betweenmodel interpretability and security robustness;(3)a synthesis of defense mechanisms to mitigate XAI-specific vulnerabilities;and(4)a forward-looking perspective proposing future research directions,including quantum-safe XAI,hybrid neuro-symbolic models,and the integration of XAI into Zero Trust Architectures.This review serves as a foundational resource for developing transparent,trustworthy,and resilient AI-driven cybersecurity systems.

文摘Diabetes imposes a substantial burden on global healthcare systems.Worldwide,nearly half of individuals with diabetes remain undiagnosed,while conventional diagnostic techniques are often invasive,painful,and expensive.In this study,we propose a noninvasive approach for diabetes detection using photoplethysmography(PPG),which is widely integrated into modern wearable devices.First,we derived velocity plethysmography(VPG)and acceleration plethysmography(APG)signals from PPG to construct multi-channel waveform representations.Second,we introduced a novel multiset spatiotemporal feature fusion framework that integrates hand-crafted temporal,statistical,and nonlinear features with recursive feature elimination and deep feature extraction using a one-dimensional statistical convolutional neural network(1DSCNN).Finally,we developed an interpretable diabetes detection method based on XGBoost,with explainable artificial intelligence(XAI)techniques.Specifically,SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)and Local InterpretableModel-agnostic Explanations(LIME)were employed to identify and interpret potential digital biomarkers associated with diabetes.To validate the proposed method,we extended the publicly available Guilin People’s Hospital dataset by incorporating in-house clinical data from ten subjects,thereby enhancing data diversity.A subject-independent cross-validation strategy was applied to ensure that the testing subjects remained independent of the training data for robust generalization.Compared with existing state-of-the-art methods,our approach achieved superior performance,with an area under the curve(AUC)of 80.5±15.9%,sensitivity of 77.2±7.5%,and specificity of 64.3±18.2%.These results demonstrate that the proposed approach provides a noninvasive,interpretable,and accessible solution for diabetes detection using PPG signals.

文摘Cardiovascular disease(CVD)remains a leading global health challenge due to its high mortality rate and the complexity of early diagnosis,driven by risk factors such as hypertension,high cholesterol,and irregular pulse rates.Traditional diagnostic methods often struggle with the nuanced interplay of these risk factors,making early detection difficult.In this research,we propose a novel artificial intelligence-enabled(AI-enabled)framework for CVD risk prediction that integrates machine learning(ML)with eXplainable AI(XAI)to provide both high-accuracy predictions and transparent,interpretable insights.Compared to existing studies that typically focus on either optimizing ML performance or using XAI separately for local or global explanations,our approach uniquely combines both local and global interpretability using Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations(LIME)and SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP).This dual integration enhances the interpretability of the model and facilitates clinicians to comprehensively understand not just what the model predicts but also why those predictions are made by identifying the contribution of different risk factors,which is crucial for transparent and informed decision-making in healthcare.The framework uses ML techniques such as K-nearest neighbors(KNN),gradient boosting,random forest,and decision tree,trained on a cardiovascular dataset.Additionally,the integration of LIME and SHAP provides patient-specific insights alongside global trends,ensuring that clinicians receive comprehensive and actionable information.Our experimental results achieve 98%accuracy with the Random Forest model,with precision,recall,and F1-scores of 97%,98%,and 98%,respectively.The innovative combination of SHAP and LIME sets a new benchmark in CVD prediction by integrating advanced ML accuracy with robust interpretability,fills a critical gap in existing approaches.This framework paves the way for more explainable and transparent decision-making in healthcare,ensuring that the model is not only accurate but also trustworthy and actionable for clinicians.
文摘This study presents a framework for the semi-automatic detection of rock discontinuities using a threedimensional(3D)point cloud(PC).The process begins by selecting an appropriate neighborhood size,a critical step for feature extraction from the PC.The effects of different neighborhood sizes(k=5,10,20,50,and 100)have been evaluated to assess their impact on classification performance.After that,17 geometric and spatial features were extracted from the PC.Next,ensemble methods,AdaBoost.M2,random forest,and decision tree,have been compared with Artificial Neural Networks to classify the main discontinuity sets.The McNemar test indicates that the classifiers are statistically significant.The random forest classifier consistently achieves the highest performance with an accuracy exceeding 95%when using a neighborhood size of k=100,while recall,F-score,and Cohen's Kappa also demonstrate high success.SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP),an Explainable AI technique,has been used to evaluate feature importance and improve the explainability of black-box machine learning models in the context of rock discontinuity classification.The analysis reveals that features such as normal vectors,verticality,and Z-values have the greatest influence on identifying main discontinuity sets,while linearity,planarity,and eigenvalues contribute less,making the model more transparent and easier to understand.After classification,individual discontinuity sets were detected using a revised DBSCAN from the main discontinuity sets.Finally,the orientation parameters of the plane fitted to each discontinuity were derived from the plane parameters obtained using the Random Sample Consensus(RANSAC).Two real-world datasets(obtained from SfM and LiDAR)and one synthetic dataset were used to validate the proposed method,which successfully identified rock discontinuities and their orientation parameters(dip angle/direction).

文摘Machine learning(ML)models are widely used for predicting undrained shear strength(USS),but interpretability has been a limitation in various studies.Therefore,this study introduced shapley additive explanations(SHAP)to clarify the contribution of each input feature in USS prediction.Three ML models,artificial neural network(ANN),extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost),and random forest(RF),were employed,with accuracy evaluated using mean squared error,mean absolute error,and coefficient of determination(R^(2)).The RF achieved the highest performance with an R^(2) of 0.82.SHAP analysis identified pre-consolidation stress as a key contributor to USS prediction.SHAP dependence plots reveal that the ANN captures smoother,linear feature-output relationships,while the RF handles complex,non-linear interactions more effectively.This suggests a non-linear relationship between USS and input features,with RF outperforming ANN.These findings highlight SHAP’s role in enhancing interpretability and promoting transparency and reliability in ML predictions for geotechnical applications.
文摘The fast increase of online communities has brought about an increase in cyber threats inclusive of cyberbullying, hate speech, misinformation, and online harassment, making content moderation a pressing necessity. Traditional single-modal AI-based detection systems, which analyze both text, photos, or movies in isolation, have established useless at taking pictures multi-modal threats, in which malicious actors spread dangerous content throughout a couple of formats. To cope with these demanding situations, we advise a multi-modal deep mastering framework that integrates Natural Language Processing (NLP), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to become aware of and mitigate online threats effectively. Our proposed model combines BERT for text class, ResNet50 for photograph processing, and a hybrid LSTM-3-d CNN community for video content material analysis. We constructed a large-scale dataset comprising 500,000 textual posts, 200,000 offensive images, and 50,000 annotated motion pictures from more than one platform, which includes Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, and online gaming forums. The system became carefully evaluated using trendy gadget mastering metrics which include accuracy, precision, remember, F1-score, and ROC-AUC curves. Experimental outcomes demonstrate that our multi-modal method extensively outperforms single-modal AI classifiers, achieving an accuracy of 92.3%, precision of 91.2%, do not forget of 90.1%, and an AUC rating of 0.95. The findings validate the necessity of integrating multi-modal AI for actual-time, high-accuracy online chance detection and moderation. Future paintings will have consciousness on improving hostile robustness, enhancing scalability for real-world deployment, and addressing ethical worries associated with AI-driven content moderation.
文摘In the field of precision healthcare,where accurate decision-making is paramount,this study underscores the indispensability of eXplainable Artificial Intelligence(XAI)in the context of epilepsy management within the Internet of Medical Things(IoMT).The methodology entails meticulous preprocessing,involving the application of a band-pass filter and epoch segmentation to optimize the quality of Electroencephalograph(EEG)data.The subsequent extraction of statistical features facilitates the differentiation between seizure and non-seizure patterns.The classification phase integrates Support Vector Machine(SVM),K-Nearest Neighbor(KNN),and Random Forest classifiers.Notably,SVM attains an accuracy of 97.26%,excelling in the precision,recall,specificity,and F1 score for identifying seizures and non-seizure instances.Conversely,KNN achieves an accuracy of 72.69%,accompanied by certain trade-offs.The Random Forest classifierstands out with a remarkable accuracy of 99.89%,coupled with an exceptional precision(99.73%),recall(100%),specificity(99.80%),and F1 score(99.86%),surpassing both SVM and KNN performances.XAI techniques,namely Local Interpretable ModelAgnostic Explanations(LIME)and SHapley Additive exPlanation(SHAP),enhance the system’s transparency.This combination of machine learning and XAI not only improves the reliability and accuracy of the seizure detection system but also enhances trust and interpretability.Healthcare professionals can leverage the identified important features and their dependencies to gain deeper insights into the decision-making process,aiding in informed diagnosis and treatment decisions for patients with epilepsy.

文摘Predicting the health status of stroke patients at different stages of the disease is a critical clinical task.The onset and development of stroke are affected by an array of factors,encompassing genetic predisposition,environmental exposure,unhealthy lifestyle habits,and existing medical conditions.Although existing machine learning-based methods for predicting stroke patients’health status have made significant progress,limitations remain in terms of prediction accuracy,model explainability,and system optimization.This paper proposes a multi-task learning approach based on Explainable Artificial Intelligence(XAI)for predicting the health status of stroke patients.First,we design a comprehensive multi-task learning framework that utilizes the task correlation of predicting various health status indicators in patients,enabling the parallel prediction of multiple health indicators.Second,we develop a multi-task Area Under Curve(AUC)optimization algorithm based on adaptive low-rank representation,which removes irrelevant information from the model structure to enhance the performance of multi-task AUC optimization.Additionally,the model’s explainability is analyzed through the stability analysis of SHAP values.Experimental results demonstrate that our approach outperforms comparison algorithms in key prognostic metrics F1 score and Efficiency.
