Centrality-optimized coalition formation: a genetic algorithm approach with leadership attributes

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp383-398
Anon Sukstrienwong , Sorapak Pukdesree
In graph theory, centrality is often assessed using traditional methods such as closeness centrality, which measures the average shortest path length between nodes in a network. In this study, we primarily focus on developing the proposed approach and demonstrating its effectiveness through initial experimental results. A novel genetic algorithm (GA)–based method named centrality–optimized leadership coalition formation (COLCF) has been designed. It emphasizes actual agent distances according to closeness centrality and leadership attributes in group formation. We detail the COLCF algorithm, present empirical case studies, and provide efficiency comparisons. In accordance with our simulation results, the proposed algorithm is capable of capitalizing on the ideal coalition structure for achieving high closeness centrality when incorporated with leadership attributes. The experimental results demonstrate the algorithm’s robustness and effectiveness in addressing complex coalition formation challenges.

Improving user experience in accessing information on organizational websites remains a challenge. Users often face complex navigation and multi step searches that slow information retrieval. This study introduces the real time intelligent virtual assistant (RIVA), which integrates large language models (LLMs) with the retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) framework to support real-time interaction with website content. The system was implemented on the Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha (Undiksha) website using a WordPress content management system (CMS) and developed following the design science research (DSR) approach, which includes six stages: problem identification, solution objectives, design and development, demonstration, evaluation, and communication. The retrieval-augmented generation assessment (RAGAS) evaluation indicated that the combined model of text-embedding-ada-002 and semantic chunking yielded the best results, with context precision=0.83, context recall=0.90, response relevancy=0.91, faithfulness=0.83, and answer correctness=0.85. User experience questionnaire (UEQ) testing performed well, particularly in the novelty and stimulation dimensions. These results demonstrate that RIVA can provide users with access to relevant and engaging information. As a result, future research will focus on improving retrieval and developing adaptive semantic chunking for structured and complex data.

In geothermal drilling operations, data from rig-mounted sensors play a crucial role in maintaining operational efficiency and preventing drilling failures. However, sensor uncertainties and complex subsurface conditions can lead to stuck pipe incidents, causing significant non-productive time and financial losses. This study proposes web-based drilling monitoring system integrated with machine learning (ML) to predict stuck pipe occurrences in geothermal drilling. Several ML algorithms—decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), naïve Bayes (NB), multilayer perceptron (MLP), and support vector machine (SVM)—were evaluated using geothermal drilling data from an Indonesian geothermal project conducted in 2023. To address class imbalance, the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) was applied to the training dataset. Feature selection was performed using the correlation coefficient method, and predictions were generated using a 5 minute sliding window. Among the evaluated models, the DT consistently demonstrated superior performance across multiple prediction horizons (PH), achieving an accuracy of 97.4%, precision of 98.6%, recall of 72.9%, and a ROC-AUC of 0.729 using the top five selected features. The trained model was integrated into web-based monitoring platform that provides visualization and predictive alerts. This system enables early detection and better decision-making, helping improve drilling efficiency, reduce stuck pipe risks, and enhance operational safety.

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp831-840
Ratnamala S. Patil , Geeta Hanji , Rakesh Hudud
Scene text recognition (STR) is the task of detecting and identifying text within images captured from natural scenes, a challenging process due to variations in text appearance, orientation, and background complexity. The proposed methodology, adaptive deformable feature augmentation and refinement network (ADFARN), is designed to address these challenges by combining deformable convolutional networks for robust enhanced feature extraction with a novel deep feature refinement (FRE) that leverages refinement for precise text localization. This approach enhances the differentiation between text and background, significantly improving recognition accuracy. The ADFARN methodology includes a comprehensive process of feature extraction, deep feature augmentation module (DFAM), and the generation of score and threshold maps through differentiable binarization. The adaptive nature of the model allows it to handle low resolution and partially occluded text effectively, further increasing its robustness. Additionally, the proposed method aligns visual and textual features seamlessly. Extensive performance evaluation on the common objects in context (COCO)-Text dataset demonstrates that ADFARN outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of precision, recall, and F1-scores, establishing it as a highly effective solution for STR in real world applications.

Human activity recognition using selective kernel network-2D convolutional neural network with ArcFace loss

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp350-360
Banushri Srinivasaiah , Jagadeesha Ramegowda
Human activity recognition (HAR) is a widely adopted technique in applications requiring accurate identification of human actions. However, HAR approaches often face challenges in generalizing across complex datasets with multi-view variations, resulting in reduced classification accuracy. Existing classifiers face shortcomings in predicting human activities due to the presence of irrelevant video frames, leading to frequent misclassifications. This research proposes a selective kernel network-2D convolutional neural network with additive angular margin loss for deep face recognition (SKN-2D-CNN with ArcFace loss) to recognize human activity effectively. SKN dynamically adapts the receptive field for learning multi scale spatial features, enhancing the recognition of intricate human activities with varying motion scales. In the embedding space, ArcFace loss introduces an angular margin penalty that improves inter-class separability and intra class compactness for recognition. Together, the proposed method minimizes misclassification in human activity by improving the robustness of feature representation. Feature extraction using visual geometry group 19 (VGG19) captures spatial features like edges, textures and shapes from video frames, enhancing the model’s ability to differentiate between complex human activities. The proposed method achieves high accuracy of 99.16 and 98.75% on the UCF101 and HMDB-51 datasets, respectively, when compared with existing methods such as CNN and bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU).

Parvathi Sathenahalli Jayaprakash , Yogeesh Ambalagere Chandrashekaraiah
Malware attacks have escalated significantly with an increase of internet users and connected devices. With the rise of various types of malwares released by the hackers, constructing new competitive methods are necessary to identify the advanced malware. However, conventional malware detection struggles to identify new and evolving malware variants accurately because of its dependence on handcrafted features and static-signature based methods. To address this problem, this research proposes convolutional neural network (CNN) based di strategy polar fox optimization algorithm (DSPFOA) for malware detection to fine-tune the CNN parameters effectively which later assists to overcome the limitations of CNN. The model integrates the sine chaotic mapping and Cauchy operator mutation as DSPFOA prevents the model from local optima issue, and extends search space solution, also enhance convergence. This ensures that the CNN learns highly discriminative features which makes the system more accurate and robust in detecting both known and evolving malware variants. The CNN DSPFOA achieves a high accuracy of 99.65 and 99.76% by utilizing BIG2015 and Malimg dataset respectively compared to existing methods like masked self-supervised model with swin transformer (MalSort).

Ayoub Allali , Ibtihal Abouchabaka , Najat Rafalia
In this study, we present an end-to-end, big-data–driven framework for continuously enriching and fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) with the latest professional and scientific medical knowledge. Streaming updates from premier sources such as The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) are ingested via an Apache Kafka cluster for low-latency delivery and durably archived in a three-node Apache Hadoop (Hadoop distributed file system (HDFS)) system. Each new article is preprocessed into high dimensional embeddings and indexed in a Milvus vector database to enable sub-second semantic retrieval over millions of records. At query or batch time, our retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) module retrieves the top-k relevant embeddings from Milvus and injects them into prompts for DeepSeek-R1, GPT-4o-mini, and Llama 3, models which are hosted, fine tuned, and served via Ollama on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti GPU for efficient inference and continual learning. The enriched outputs are seamlessly delivered to end users through a Telegram bot programmed in Python using the Telebot library, linking the RAG-enhanced LLMs to an intuitive chat interface. Our Kafka, HDFS, Milvus, RAG, LLM, or Telegram bot pipeline demonstrably improves factual accuracy and topical currency of AI-generated medical insights across clinical decision support, patient engagement and education, drug discovery and development, virtual health assistants, and mental health support, laying the groundwork for truly intelligent, responsive, and data-driven healthcare solutions.

Pneumonia classification from chest X-rays using significant feature selection and machine learning

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp592-603
Yugandhar Chodagam , Manjunatha Hiremath
The chest X-ray images of normal lungs differ only subtly from those of lungs with pneumonia, making image-based diagnosis highly challenging. To address this issue, we developed a machine learning (ML)-based, lightweight, end-to-end Python package that processes chest X-ray images, implements robust feature selection methods, and classifies the images using various algorithms. While many studies have focused on improving classification accuracy using newer methods, few have addressed the interpretability of the extracted features or the growing computational demands of complex models. We used four publicly available datasets and extracted first-order, textural, and transform-based radiomic features to test our package. Features were selected using the Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) combined with recursive feature elimination (RFE) and stability selection algorithms. Our final solution contains a method that extracts a finite set of features identified by stability selection and feeds them as inputs into classical ML algorithms. Our model achieved 98% accuracy on the primary dataset, and 97%±1, 96%±2, and 94%±2% accuracy on the other three datasets. Our approach is fast, self-contained, and requires only an ideal set of features, making it suitable for resource-constrained clinical environments.

Accurate traffic data is essential for effective transportation planning and policymaking. However, in many regions, especially those lacking intelligent infrastructure, data collection remains dependent on manual methods that are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and susceptible to human error. While advanced systems such as closed-circuit television (CCTV) and area traffic control systems (ATCS) offer automation, their high cost and infrastructure requirements limit widespread adoption. This study proposes a portable, low-cost, and real-time traffic monitoring system based on the YOLOv10 object detection algorithm. The system operates using only a smartphone-grade camera (1080 p, 60 fps) and a standard laptop, eliminating the need for expensive installations. It detects, classifies, and counts vehicles as they pass through a predefined region of interest (ROI), and also estimates their speed based on time–distance measurements. Field evaluations using five one-hour urban traffic videos showed excellent agreement with manual counts, achieving a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of just 0.30%. Speed estimation trials conducted on sample clips also demonstrated consistent and plausible results. These findings highlight the system’s potential as a scalable and accurate alternative for traffic monitoring in infrastructure-limited environments.
