Indonesia is one of the countries with the largest number of diphtheria sufferers in the world. Diphtheria is a case of re-emerging disease, especially in Indonesia. Diphtheria can be prevented by immunization. Diphtheria immunization has drastically reduced mortality and susceptibility to diphtheria, but it is still a significant childhood health problem. This study predicted the number of diphtheria patients in several regions using support vector regression (SVR) combined with the genetic algorithm (GA) for parameter optimization. The area is grouped into 3 clusters based on the number of cases. The proposed method is proven to overcome overfitting and avoid local optima. Model robustness tests were carried out in several other regions in each cluster. Based on the experiments in three scenarios and 12 areas, the hybrid model shows good forecasting results with an average mean squared error (MSE) of 0.036 and a symmetric mean absolute percentage error (SMAPE) of 41.2% with a standard deviation of 0.075 and 0.442, respectively. Based on experiments in various scenarios, the SVR-GA model shows better performance than others. Compares two- means tests on MSE and SMAPE were given to prove that SVR-GA models have better performance. The results of this forecasting can be used as a basis for policy-making to minimize the spread of diphtheria cases.

Diagnosing silent diseases such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) at an early stage is challenging due to the absence of symptoms, making early detection crucial to slowing disease progression. This study addresses this challenge by introducing a novel feature, the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), calculated using the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula. We enriched our dataset by incorporating this feature, effectively increasing the volume of data at our disposal. eGFR serves as a critical indicator for diagnosing CKD and assessing its progression, thereby guiding clinical management. Our focus is on developing machine learning and deep learning models for the efficient and precise prediction of CKD. To ensure the reliability of our approach, we employed robust data collection and preprocessing techniques, resulting in refined information for model training. Our methodology integrates various machine learning and deep learning models, including four machine learning algorithms: adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), random forest (RF), Bagging, and artificial neural network (ANN), as well as a hybrid model. Our proposed ANN_AdaBoost model not only introduces a novel perspective by addressing an identified gap but significantly enhances CKD prediction.

Mangoes are valuable crops grown in warm climates, but they often suffer from diseases that harm both the trees and the fruits. This paper proposes a new way to use machine learning to detect these diseases early in mango plants. We focused on common issues like mango fruit diseases, leaf diseases, powdery mildew, anthracnose/blossom blight, and dieback, which are particularly problematic in places like Bangladesh. Our method starts by improving the quality of images of mango plants and then extracting important features from these images. We use a technique called k-means clustering to divide the images into meaningful parts for analysis. After extracting ten key features, we tested various ways to classify the diseases. The random forest algorithm stood out, accurately identifying diseases with a 97.44% success rate. This research is crucial for Bangladesh, where mango farming is essential for the economy. By spotting diseases early, we can improve mango production, quality, and the livelihoods of farmers. This automated system offers a practical way to manage mango diseases in regions with similar climates.

Neha Bhadu , Jaswinder Singh
Heart disease (HD) is a serious medical condition that has an enormous effect on people's quality of life. Early as well as accurate identification is crucial for preventing and treating HD. Traditional methods of diagnosis may not always be reliable. Non-intrusive methods like machine learning (ML) are proficient in distinguishing between patients with HD and those in good health. The prime objective of this study is to find a robust ML technique that can accurately detect the presence of HD. For this purpose, several ML algorithms were chosen based on the relevant literature studied. For this investigation, two different heart datasets the Cleveland and Statlog datasets were downloaded from Kaggle. The analysis was carried out utilizing the Waikato environment for knowledge analysis (WEKA) 3.9.6 software. To assess how well various algorithms predicted HD, the study employed a variety of performance evaluation metrics and error rates. The findings showed that for both the datasets radio frequency is a better option for predicting HD with an accuracy and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) values of 94% and 0.984 for the Cleveland dataset and 90% and 0.975 for the Statlog dataset. This work may aid researchers in creating early HD detection models and assist medical practitioners in identifying HD.

Using the ResNet-50 pre-trained model to improve the classification output of a non-image kidney stone dataset

10.11591/ijai.v14.i4.pp3182-3191
Kazeem Oyebode , Anne Ngozi Odoh
Kidney stone detection based on urine samples seems to be a cost-effective way of detecting the formation of stones. Urine features are usually collected from patients to determine if there is a likelihood of kidney stone formation. There are existing machine learning models that can be used to classify if a stone exists in the kidney, such as the support vector machine (SVM) and deep learning (DL) models. We propose a DL network that works with a pre-trained (ResNet-50) model, making non-image urine features work with an image-based pre-trained model (ResNet-50). Six urine features collected from patients are projected onto 172,800 neurons. This output is then reshaped into a 240 by 240 by 3 tensors. The reshaped output serves as the input to the ResNet-50. The output of this is then sent into a binary classifier to determine if a kidney stone exists or not. The proposed model is benchmarked against the SVM, XGBoost, and two variants of DL networks, and it shows improved performance using the AUC-ROC, Accuracy and F1-score metrics. We demonstrate that combining non-image urine features with an image-based pre-trained model improves classification outcomes, highlighting the potential of integrating heterogeneous data sources for enhanced predictive accuracy.

Shaista Farhat , Chokka Anuradha
Agriculture is an important sector of Indian agronomy for human livelihood. All areas are affected by the effects of environmental toxic farms, which makes managing various difficult situations more challenging. Agriculture must adopt new technology in accordance with daily environmental changes if it is going to benefit from a crop from the perspectives of farmers and end users. Farmers will benefit from early detection of agricultural diseases rather than risking their lives in dangerous circumstances. Computer technology will be very helpful in maintaining sustainable and healthy crops for the objective of identifying crop diseases in addition to the farmer's close observation. Deep learning (DL) techniques are very influential among various computing technologies. In this work, we explore several current approaches to precision agriculture, such as artificial intelligence (AI), DL, and machine learning (ML). The findings of the study make clear modern methods, their drawbacks, and the knowledge lacking that needs to be addressed to explore precision agriculture fully.

Hyperparameter tuning is a key optimization strategy in machine learning (ML), often used with GridSearchCV to find optimal hyperparameter combinations. This study aimed to predict the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of small molecules targeting the SARS-CoV-2 replicase polyprotein 1ab (pp1ab) by optimizing three ML algorithms: histogram gradient boosting regressor (HGBR), light gradient boosting regressor (LGBR), and random forest regressor (RFR). Bioactivity data, including duplicates, were processed using three approaches: untreated, aggregation of quantitative bioactivity, and duplicate removal. Molecular features were encoded using twelve types of molecular fingerprints. To optimize the models, hyperparameter tuning with GridSearchCV was applied across a broad parameter space. The results showed that the performance of the models was inconsistent, despite comprehensive hyperparameter tuning. Further analysis showed that the distribution of Murcko fragments was uneven between the training and testing datasets. Key fragments were underrepresented in the testing phase, leading to a mismatch in model predictions. The study demonstrates that hyperparameter tuning alone may not be sufficient to achieve high predictive performance when the distribution of molecular fragments is unbalanced between training and testing datasets. Ensuring fragment diversity across datasets is crucial for improving model reliability in drug discovery applications.

Multi-target vehicle detection in urban traffic faces challenges such as poor lighting, small object sizes, and diverse vehicle types, impacting traffic flow prediction accuracy. This study introduces an optimized long short-term memory (LSTM) model using the Komodo Mlipir algorithm (KMA) to enhance prediction accuracy. Traffic video data are processed with YOLO for vehicle classification and object counting. The LSTM model, trained to capture traffic patterns, employs parameters optimized by KMA, including learning rate, neuron count, and epochs. KMA integrates mutation and crossover strategies to enable adaptive selection in global and local searches. The model's performance was evaluated on an urban traffic dataset with uniform configurations for population size and key LSTM parameters, ensuring consistent evaluation. Results showed LSTM-KMA achieved a root mean square error (RMSE) of 14.5319, outperforming LSTM (16.6827), LSTM-improved dung beetle optimization (IDBO) (15.0946), and LSTM-particle swarm optimization (PSO) (15.0368). Its mean absolute error (MAE), at 8.7041, also surpassed LSTM (9.9903), LSTM-IDBO (9.0328), and LSTM-PSO (9.0015). LSTM-KMA effectively tackles multi-target detection challenges, improving prediction accuracy and transportation system efficiency. This reliable solution supports real-time urban traffic management, addressing the demands of dynamic urban environments.

As the demand for efficient and cost-effective greenhouse microclimate surveillance has increased, we developed a microclimate surveillance system using microcontroller technology that automatically collects temperature and relative humidity data and transmits it to a cloud server for remote surveillance and data analysis. 1971 microclimate data points were acquired over a 20-day evaluation period, providing insights into greenhouse environmental conditions with a negative linear regression between air temperature and relative humidity within the greenhouse and an R-squared of 0.73. This illustrates the system’s ability to record and quantify environmental conditions data. Additionally, we derived a predictive model to manage microclimate conditions using the regression formula y = -6.12X + 238.33, where X represents the air temperature and y represents the relative humidity. All the results show that the acquired data can be used to make decisions to optimize plant growth. The prototype we developed can be an alternative option for small and medium-sized farms that need a greenhouse surveillance system to improve operational efficiency and reduce surveillance costs. The system can be further developed by implementing additional sensors to monitor light intensity, wind speed, or soil moisture and further data analysis models to optimize greenhouse management.

Heba Dhirar , Ali H. Hamad
The internet of things (IoT) and software-defined networks (SDN) play a significant role in enhancing efficiency and productivity. However, they encounter possible risks. Artificial intelligence (AI) has recently been employed in intrusion detection systems (IDSs), serving as an important instrument for improving security. Nevertheless, the necessity to store data on a centralized server poses a potential threat. Federated learning (FL) addresses this problem by training models locally. In this work, a network intrusion detection system (NIDS) is implemented on multi-controller SDN-based IoT networks. The interplanetary file system (IPFS) FL has been employed to share and train deep learning (DL) models. Several clients participated in the training process using custom generated dataset IoT-SDN by training the model locally and sharing the parameters in an encrypted format, improving the overall effectiveness, safety, and security of the network. The model has successfully identified several types of attacks, including distributed denial of service (DDoS), denial of service (DoS), botnet, brute force, exploitation, malware, probe, web-based, spoofing, recon, and achieving an accuracy of 99.89% and a loss of 0.005.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a key technology for the internet of things (IoT), with widespread applications in the commercial, healthcare, enterprise, and community sectors. However, privacy and security concerns remain with RFID systems. This manuscript presents a novel RFID-based mutual authentication protocol (MAP) using the PRINCE cipher to address these concerns. The proposed MAP leverages a PRINCE cipher architecture capable of both encryption and decryption based on a mode signal. It performs five encryption and two decryption processes during tag and reader mutual authentication, with updated seed values ensuring synchronization and secure data communication. The PRINCE cipher implementation utilizes less than 1% of slices, operates at 226 MHz with a latency of 3.5 clock cycles (CC), and has a throughput of 4.125 Gbps. The complete RFID-based MAP consumes 721 mW of power, occupies 2% of the chip area, and achieves a latency of 35.5 CC and a throughput of 262 Mbps. This represents a 25% reduction in latency, a 40% increase in throughput, and a 30% decrease in execution time compared to existing MAP approaches. The findings demonstrate the potential of the proposed MAP to enhance latency, throughput, and execution time, offering a promising solution for secure and efficient RFID authentication.
