文摘Employee turnover presents considerable challenges for organizations,leading to increased recruitment costs and disruptions in ongoing operations.High voluntary attrition rates can result in substantial financial losses,making it essential for Human Resource(HR)departments to prioritize turnover reduction.In this context,Artificial Intelligence(AI)has emerged as a vital tool in strengthening business strategies and people management.This paper incorporates two new representative features,introducing three types of feature engineering to enhance the analysis of employee turnover in the IBM HR Analytics dataset.Key Machine Learning(ML)techniques were subsequently employed in this work,such as Support Vector Machine(SVM),Random Forest(RF),Logistic Regression(LR),Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),and especially Categorical Boosting(CatBoost),a gradient boosting algorithm optimized for categorical data to analyze employee turnover.Adopting the unique feature engineering process enables CatBoost to enhance model accuracy and robustness while effectively analyzing complex patterns within employee data.Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed methodology,achieving the highest accuracy of 90.14%and an F1-score of 0.88 on the IBM dataset.To assess the capability of our detection system,we have also used an extended dataset,achieving an optimal accuracy of 98.10%and an F1-score of 0.98.These results strongly indicate the efficiency of our proposed methodology and highlight the impact of feature engineering on predictive performance.Moreover,by pinpointing the top ten factors influencing attrition,including“Monthly Income”,“Over Time”,“Total Satisfaction”,and others,this research equips HR departments with insights to implement targeted retention strategies,such as enhancing compensation or job satisfaction,to retain key talent before they consider leaving.

文摘This study presents an advanced method for post-mortem person identification using the segmentation of skeletal structures from chest X-ray images.The proposed approach employs the Attention U-Net architecture,enhanced with gated attention mechanisms,to refine segmentation by emphasizing spatially relevant anatomical features while suppressing irrelevant details.By isolating skeletal structures which remain stable over time compared to soft tissues,this method leverages bones as reliable biometric markers for identity verification.The model integrates custom-designed encoder and decoder blocks with attention gates,achieving high segmentation precision.To evaluate the impact of architectural choices,we conducted an ablation study comparing Attention U-Net with and without attentionmechanisms,alongside an analysis of data augmentation effects.Training and evaluation were performed on a curated chest X-ray dataset,with segmentation performance measured using Dice score,precision,and loss functions,achieving over 98% precision and 94% Dice score.The extracted bone structures were further processed to derive unique biometric patterns,enabling robust and privacy-preserving person identification.Our findings highlight the effectiveness of attentionmechanisms in improving segmentation accuracy and underscore the potential of chest bonebased biometrics in forensic and medical imaging.This work paves the way for integrating artificial intelligence into real-world forensic workflows,offering a non-invasive and reliable solution for post-mortem identification.

文摘This study introduces the type-I heavy-tailed Burr XII(TIHTBXII)distribution,a highly flexible and robust statistical model designed to address the limitations of conventional distributions in analyzing data characterized by skewness,heavy tails,and diverse hazard behaviors.We meticulously develop the TIHTBXII’s mathematical foundations,including its probability density function(PDF),cumulative distribution function(CDF),and essential statistical properties,crucial for theoretical understanding and practical application.A comprehensive Monte Carlo simulation evaluates four parameter estimation methods:maximum likelihood(MLE),maximum product spacing(MPS),least squares(LS),and weighted least squares(WLS).The simulation results consistently show that as sample sizes increase,the Bias and RMSE of all estimators decrease,with WLS and LS often demonstrating superior and more stable performance.Beyond theoretical development,we present a practical application of the TIHTBXII distribution in constructing a group acceptance sampling plan(GASP)for truncated life tests.This application highlights how the TIHTBXII model can optimize quality control decisions by minimizing the average sample number(ASN)while effectively managing consumer and producer risks.Empirical validation using real-world datasets,including“Active Repair Duration,”“Groundwater Contaminant Measurements,”and“Dominica COVID-19 Mortality,”further demonstrates the TIHTBXII’s superior fit compared to existing models.Our findings confirm the TIHTBXII distribution as a powerful and reliable alternative for accurately modeling complex data in fields such as reliability engineering and quality assessment,leading to more informed and robust decision-making.

文摘The Bat algorithm,a metaheuristic optimization technique inspired by the foraging behaviour of bats,has been employed to tackle optimization problems.Known for its ease of implementation,parameter tunability,and strong global search capabilities,this algorithm finds application across diverse optimization problem domains.However,in the face of increasingly complex optimization challenges,the Bat algorithm encounters certain limitations,such as slow convergence and sensitivity to initial solutions.In order to tackle these challenges,the present study incorporates a range of optimization compo-nents into the Bat algorithm,thereby proposing a variant called PKEBA.A projection screening strategy is implemented to mitigate its sensitivity to initial solutions,thereby enhancing the quality of the initial solution set.A kinetic adaptation strategy reforms exploration patterns,while an elite communication strategy enhances group interaction,to avoid algorithm from local optima.Subsequently,the effectiveness of the proposed PKEBA is rigorously evaluated.Testing encompasses 30 benchmark functions from IEEE CEC2014,featuring ablation experiments and comparative assessments against classical algorithms and their variants.Moreover,real-world engineering problems are employed as further validation.The results conclusively demonstrate that PKEBA ex-hibits superior convergence and precision compared to existing algorithms.

文摘This research investigates the application of digital images in military contexts by utilizing analytical equations to augment human visual capabilities.A comparable filter is used to improve the visual quality of the photographs by reducing truncations in the existing images.Furthermore,the collected images undergo processing using histogram gradients and a flexible threshold value that may be adjusted in specific situations.Thus,it is possible to reduce the occurrence of overlapping circumstances in collective picture characteristics by substituting grey-scale photos with colorized factors.The proposed method offers additional robust feature representations by imposing a limiting factor to reduce overall scattering values.This is achieved by visualizing a graphical function.Moreover,to derive valuable insights from a series of photos,both the separation and in-version processes are conducted.This involves analyzing comparison results across four different scenarios.The results of the comparative analysis show that the proposed method effectively reduces the difficulties associated with time and space to 1 s and 3%,respectively.In contrast,the existing strategy exhibits higher complexities of 3 s and 9.1%,respectively.

文摘A significant number and range of challenges besetting sustainability can be traced to the actions and inter actions of multiple autonomous agents(people mostly)and the entities they create(e.g.,institutions,policies,social network)in the corresponding social-environmental systems(SES).To address these challenges,we need to understand decisions made and actions taken by agents,the outcomes of their actions,including the feedbacks on the corresponding agents and environment.The science of complex adaptive systems-complex adaptive sys tems(CAS)science-has a significant potential to handle such challenges.We address the advantages of CAS science for sustainability by identifying the key elements and challenges in sustainability science,the generic features of CAS,and the key advances and challenges in modeling CAS.Artificial intelligence and data science combined with agent-based modeling promise to improve understanding of agents’behaviors,detect SES struc tures,and formulate SES mechanisms.
文摘Intrusion detection in Internet of Things(IoT)environments presents challenges due to heterogeneous devices,diverse attack vectors,and highly imbalanced datasets.Existing research on the ToN-IoT dataset has largely emphasized binary classification and single-model pipelines,which often showstrong performance but limited generalizability,probabilistic reliability,and operational interpretability.This study proposes a stacked ensemble deep learning framework that integrates random forest,extreme gradient boosting,and a deep neural network as base learners,with CatBoost as the meta-learner.On the ToN-IoT Linux process dataset,the model achieved near-perfect discrimination(macro area under the curve=0.998),robust calibration,and superior F1-scores compared with standalone classifiers.Interpretability was achieved through SHapley Additive exPlanations–based feature attribution,which highlights actionable drivers ofmalicious behavior,such as command-line patterns,process scheduling anomalies,and CPU usage spikes,and aligns these indicators with MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques.Complementary analyses,including cumulative lift and sensitivity-specificity trade-offs,revealed the framework’s suitability for deployment in security operations centers,where calibrated risk scores,transparent explanations,and resource-aware triage are essential.These contributions bridge methodological rigor in artificial intelligence/machine learning with operational priorities in cybersecurity,delivering a scalable and explainable intrusion detection system suitable for real-world deployment in IoT environments.

文摘The Nelder-Mead simplex method is a well-known algorithm enabling the minimization of functions that are not available in closed-form and that need not be differentiable or convex.Furthermore,it is particularly parsimonious on the number of function evaluations,thus making it preferable to convex optimization paradigms in the case,common when dealing with control design problems,that the objective function of the optimization problem is non-differentiable,non-convex,and its closed-form is not available or difficult to be computed analytically.The main goal of this paper is to show how the joint use of the Nelder-Mead simplex method and the Morrison algorithm can be successfully used to solve relevant and challenging control problems that cannot be easily solved using analytic methods.In particular,it is shown how the problems of strong stabilization,static output feedback stabilization,and design of robust controllers having fixed structure can be framed as optimization problems,which,in turn,can be efficiently solved by coupling the two above mentioned algorithms.The performance of this procedure is compared with state-of-the-art techniques on dozens of static output feedback benchmark case studies,and its effectiveness is demonstrated by several examples.

文摘The healthcare field is fraught with challenges associated with severe class imbalance,wherein such critical conditions like sepsis,cardiac arrest,and drug adverse reactions are rare but have dire clinical consequences.This paper presents a new framework,Deep Reinforcement Adaptive Gradient Optimization Network to Mining Rare Events(DRAGON-MINE),to demonstrate how deep reinforcement learning can be used synergistically with adaptive gradient optimization and address the inherent weaknesses of current methods in the prediction of rare health events.The suggested architecture uses a dual-pathway consisting of a reinforcement learning agent to dynamically reweigh samples and an adaptive gradient optimizer to follow novel learning rates.With extensive experiments on the MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD datasets,DRAGON-MINE consistently outperforms recent state-of-the-art methods for sepsis,cardiac arrest,and adverse drug reaction prediction,achieving AUROC values of 92.3%and 91.6%for sepsis prediction on MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD,respectively,while consistently outperforming Transformer-,CNN-RNN-,and Fed-Ensemble-based methods across all evaluated tasks and datasets,with particularly strong gains observed in precision-recall performance under severe class imbalance.With its high sensitivity(88.4%)and specificity(90.2%),DRAGON-MINE enables reliable early warning of rare clinical events in critical care settings while minimizing false alarms,supporting safer clinical decision support systems,and demonstrating strong potential for scalable deployment across multi-institutional intensive care environments through federated learning.
文摘Internet of Things(IoT)interconnects devices via network protocols to enable intelligent sensing and control.Resource-constrained IoT devices rely on cloud servers for data storage and processing.However,this cloudassisted architecture faces two critical challenges:the untrusted cloud services and the separation of data ownership from control.Although Attribute-based Searchable Encryption(ABSE)provides fine-grained access control and keyword search over encrypted data,existing schemes lack of error tolerance in exact multi-keyword matching.In this paper,we proposed an attribute-based multi-keyword fuzzy searchable encryption with forward ciphertext search(FCS-ABMSE)scheme that avoids computationally expensive bilinear pairing operations on the IoT device side.The scheme supportsmulti-keyword fuzzy search without requiring explicit keyword fields,thereby significantly enhancing error tolerance in search operations.It further incorporates forward-secure ciphertext search to mitigate trapdoor abuse,as well as offline encryption and verifiable outsourced decryption to minimize user-side computational costs.Formal security analysis proved that the FCS-ABMSE scheme meets both indistinguishability of ciphertext under the chosen keyword attacks(IND-CKA)and the indistinguishability of ciphertext under the chosen plaintext attacks(IND-CPA).In addition,we constructed an enhanced variant based on type-3 pairings.Results demonstrated that the proposed scheme outperforms existing ABSE approaches in terms of functionalities,computational cost,and communication cost.
