Identifying the genes vital for accurate cancer classification is a key challenge. Here, we present Fs-LSA (F-score based Learning Search Algorithm), a novel gene selection algorithm designed to enhance the precision and efficiency of target gene identification from microarray data for cancer classification. This algorithm is divided into two phases: the first leverages F-score values to prioritize and select feature genes with the most significant differential expression;the second phase introduces our Learning Search Algorithm (LSA), which harnesses swarm intelligence to identify the optimal subset among the remaining genes. Inspired by human social learning, LSA integrates historical data and collective intelligence for a thorough search, with a dynamic control mechanism that balances exploration and refinement, thereby enhancing the gene selection process. We conducted a rigorous validation of Fs-LSA’s performance using eight publicly available cancer microarray expression datasets. Fs-LSA achieved accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and F1-score values of 0.9932, 0.9923, 0.9962, and 0.994, respectively. Comparative analyses with state-of-the-art algorithms revealed Fs-LSA’s superior performance in terms of simplicity and efficiency. Additionally, we validated the algorithm’s efficacy independently using glioblastoma data from GEO and TCGA databases. It was significantly superior to those of the comparison algorithms. Importantly, the driver genes identified by Fs-LSA were instrumental in developing a predictive model as an independent prognostic indicator for glioblastoma, underscoring Fs-LSA’s transformative potential in genomics and personalized medicine.展开更多

The SCA includes two learner layers: a primary learner’s layer and meta-classifier layer. The accuracy of the SCA can be improved by using the GS and K-CV. The GS was developed to match the hyper-parameters and optimise complicated problems. The K-CV is commonly applied to changing the validation set in a training set. In general, a GS is usually combined with K-CV to produce a corresponding evaluation index and select the best hyper-parameters. The torque penetration index(TPI) and field penetration index(FPI) are proposed based on shield parameters to express the geological characteristics. The elbow method(EM) and silhouette coefficient(Si) are employed to determine the types of geological characteristics(K) in a Kmeans++ algorithm. A case study on mixed ground in Guangzhou is adopted to validate the applicability of the developed model. The results show that with the developed framework, the four selected parameters, i.e. thrust, advance rate, cutterhead rotation speed and cutterhead torque, can be used to effectively predict the corresponding geological characteristics.展开更多

Besides field observations, it is necessary to analyze the land cover of wetlands through the color infrared (CIR) aerial photography or remote sensing image. In this paper, we designed an evolving neural network classifier using variable string genetic algorithm (VGA) for the land cover classification of CIR aerial image. With the VGA, the classifier that we designed is able to evolve automatically the appropriate number of hidden nodes for modeling the neural network topology optimally and to find a near-optimal set of connection weights globally. Then, with backpropagation algorithm (BP), it can find the best connection weights. The VGA-BP classifier, which is derived from hybrid algorithms mentioned above, is demonstrated on CIR images classification effectively. Compared with standard classifiers, such as Bayes maximum-likelihood classifier, VGA classifier and BP-MLP (multi-layer perception) classifier, it has shown that the VGA-BP classifier can have better performance on highly resolution land cover classification.展开更多

In the process of the optimization, the strategy of hierarchical pruning has been adopted in the PSO algorithm to narrow the search area,and thus to enhance the local search ability, i.e. hierarchical PSO algorithm. The TC intensity classification rule involves core attributes including 12-HMWS, MPI, and Rainrate which play vital roles in TC intensity change. The testing accuracy using the new mined rule by hierarchical PSO algorithm reaches 89.6%. The current study shows that the novel classification method for TC intensity change analysis based on hierarchic PSO algorithm is not only easy to explain the source of rule core attributes, but also has great potential to improve the forecasting of TC intensity change.展开更多

摘要This study presents a framework for predicting geological characteristics based on integrating a stacking classification algorithm(SCA) with a grid search(GS) and K-fold cross validation(K-CV). The SCA includes two learner layers: a primary learner’s layer and meta-classifier layer. The accuracy of the SCA can be improved by using the GS and K-CV. The GS was developed to match the hyper-parameters and optimise complicated problems. The K-CV is commonly applied to changing the validation set in a training set. In general, a GS is usually combined with K-CV to produce a corresponding evaluation index and select the best hyper-parameters. The torque penetration index(TPI) and field penetration index(FPI) are proposed based on shield parameters to express the geological characteristics. The elbow method(EM) and silhouette coefficient(Si) are employed to determine the types of geological characteristics(K) in a Kmeans++ algorithm. A case study on mixed ground in Guangzhou is adopted to validate the applicability of the developed model. The results show that with the developed framework, the four selected parameters, i.e. thrust, advance rate, cutterhead rotation speed and cutterhead torque, can be used to effectively predict the corresponding geological characteristics.

摘要A new arrival and departure flight classification method based on the transitive closure algorithm (TCA) is proposed. Firstly, the fuzzy set theory and the transitive closure algorithm are introduced. Then four different factors are selected to establish the flight classification model and a method is given to calculate the delay cost for each class. Finally, the proposed method is implemented in the sequencing problems of flights in a terminal area, and results are compared with that of the traditional classification method(TCM). Results show that the new classification model is effective in reducing the expenses of flight delays, thus optimizing the sequences of arrival and departure flights, and improving the efficiency of air traffic control.
摘要Coastal wetlands are characterized by complex patterns both in their geomorphlc and ecological teatures. Besides field observations, it is necessary to analyze the land cover of wetlands through the color infrared (CIR) aerial photography or remote sensing image. In this paper, we designed an evolving neural network classifier using variable string genetic algorithm (VGA) for the land cover classification of CIR aerial image. With the VGA, the classifier that we designed is able to evolve automatically the appropriate number of hidden nodes for modeling the neural network topology optimally and to find a near-optimal set of connection weights globally. Then, with backpropagation algorithm (BP), it can find the best connection weights. The VGA-BP classifier, which is derived from hybrid algorithms mentioned above, is demonstrated on CIR images classification effectively. Compared with standard classifiers, such as Bayes maximum-likelihood classifier, VGA classifier and BP-MLP (multi-layer perception) classifier, it has shown that the VGA-BP classifier can have better performance on highly resolution land cover classification.

摘要The recycling of glass bottles can reduce the consumption of resources and contribute to environmental protection.At present,the classification of recycled glass bottles is difficult due to the many differences in specifications and models.This paper proposes a classification algorithm for glass bottles that is divided into two stages,namely the extraction of candidate regions and the classification of classifiers.In the candidate region extraction stage,aiming at the problem of the large time overhead caused by the use of the SIFT(scale-invariant feature transform)descriptor in SS(selective search),an improved feature of HLSN(Haar-like based on SPP-Net)is proposed.An integral graph is introduced to accelerate the process of forming an HBSN vector,which overcomes the problem of repeated texture feature calculation in overlapping regions by SS.In the classification stage,the improved SS algorithm is used to extract target regions.The target regions are merged using a non-maximum suppression algorithm according to the classification scores of the respective regions,and the merged regions are classified using the trained classifier.Experiments demonstrate that,compared with the original SS,the improved SS algorithm increases the calculation speed by 13.8%,and its classification accuracy is 89.4%.Additionally,the classification algorithm for glass bottles has a certain resistance to noise.

摘要Based on the tropical cyclone(TC) observations in the western North Pacific from 2000 to 2008, this paper adopts the particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm of evolutionary computation to optimize one comprehensive classification rule, and apply the optimized classification rule to the forecasting of TC intensity change. In the process of the optimization, the strategy of hierarchical pruning has been adopted in the PSO algorithm to narrow the search area,and thus to enhance the local search ability, i.e. hierarchical PSO algorithm. The TC intensity classification rule involves core attributes including 12-HMWS, MPI, and Rainrate which play vital roles in TC intensity change. The testing accuracy using the new mined rule by hierarchical PSO algorithm reaches 89.6%. The current study shows that the novel classification method for TC intensity change analysis based on hierarchic PSO algorithm is not only easy to explain the source of rule core attributes, but also has great potential to improve the forecasting of TC intensity change.

摘要With new developments experienced in Internet of Things(IoT),wearable,and sensing technology,the value of healthcare services has enhanced.This evolution has brought significant changes from conventional medicine-based healthcare to real-time observation-based healthcare.Biomedical Electrocardiogram(ECG)signals are generally utilized in examination and diagnosis of Cardiovascular Diseases(CVDs)since it is quick and non-invasive in nature.Due to increasing number of patients in recent years,the classifier efficiency gets reduced due to high variances observed in ECG signal patterns obtained from patients.In such scenario computer-assisted automated diagnostic tools are important for classification of ECG signals.The current study devises an Improved Bat Algorithm with Deep Learning Based Biomedical ECGSignal Classification(IBADL-BECGC)approach.To accomplish this,the proposed IBADL-BECGC model initially pre-processes the input signals.Besides,IBADL-BECGC model applies NasNet model to derive the features from test ECG signals.In addition,Improved Bat Algorithm(IBA)is employed to optimally fine-tune the hyperparameters related to NasNet approach.Finally,Extreme Learning Machine(ELM)classification algorithm is executed to perform ECG classification method.The presented IBADL-BECGC model was experimentally validated utilizing benchmark dataset.The comparison study outcomes established the improved performance of IBADL-BECGC model over other existing methodologies since the former achieved a maximum accuracy of 97.49%.

摘要Medical data classification(MDC)refers to the application of classification methods on medical datasets.This work focuses on applying a classification task to medical datasets related to specific diseases in order to predict the associated diagnosis or prognosis.To gain experts’trust,the prediction and the reasoning behind it are equally important.Accordingly,we confine our research to learn rule-based models because they are transparent and comprehensible.One approach to MDC involves the use of metaheuristic(MH)algorithms.Here we report on the development and testing of a novel MH algorithm:IWD-Miner.This algorithm can be viewed as a fusion of Intelligent Water Drops(IWDs)and AntMiner+.It was subjected to a four-stage sensitivity analysis to optimize its performance.For this purpose,21 publicly available medical datasets were used from the Machine Learning Repository at the University of California Irvine.Interestingly,there were only limited differences in performance between IWDMiner variants which is suggestive of its robustness.Finally,using the same 21 datasets,we compared the performance of the optimized IWD-Miner against two extant algorithms,AntMiner+and J48.The experiments showed that both rival algorithms are considered comparable in the effectiveness to IWD-Miner,as confirmed by the Wilcoxon nonparametric statistical test.Results suggest that IWD-Miner is more efficient than AntMiner+as measured by the average number of fitness evaluations to a solution(1,386,621.30 vs.2,827,283.88 fitness evaluations,respectively).J48 exhibited higher accuracy on average than IWD-Miner(79.58 vs.73.65,respectively)but produced larger models(32.82 leaves vs.8.38 terms,respectively).

摘要Datamining plays a crucial role in extractingmeaningful knowledge fromlarge-scale data repositories,such as data warehouses and databases.Association rule mining,a fundamental process in data mining,involves discovering correlations,patterns,and causal structures within datasets.In the healthcare domain,association rules offer valuable opportunities for building knowledge bases,enabling intelligent diagnoses,and extracting invaluable information rapidly.This paper presents a novel approach called the Machine Learning based Association Rule Mining and Classification for Healthcare Data Management System(MLARMC-HDMS).The MLARMC-HDMS technique integrates classification and association rule mining(ARM)processes.Initially,the chimp optimization algorithm-based feature selection(COAFS)technique is employed within MLARMC-HDMS to select relevant attributes.Inspired by the foraging behavior of chimpanzees,the COA algorithm mimics their search strategy for food.Subsequently,the classification process utilizes stochastic gradient descent with a multilayer perceptron(SGD-MLP)model,while the Apriori algorithm determines attribute relationships.We propose a COA-based feature selection approach for medical data classification using machine learning techniques.This approach involves selecting pertinent features from medical datasets through COA and training machine learning models using the reduced feature set.We evaluate the performance of our approach on various medical datasets employing diverse machine learning classifiers.Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed approach surpasses alternative feature selection methods,achieving higher accuracy and precision rates in medical data classification tasks.The study showcases the effectiveness and efficiency of the COA-based feature selection approach in identifying relevant features,thereby enhancing the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases.To provide further validation,we conduct detailed experiments on a benchmark medical dataset,revealing the superiority of the MLARMCHDMS model over other methods,with a maximum accuracy of 99.75%.Therefore,this research contributes to the advancement of feature selection techniques in medical data classification and highlights the potential for improving healthcare outcomes through accurate and efficient data analysis.The presented MLARMC-HDMS framework and COA-based feature selection approach offer valuable insights for researchers and practitioners working in the field of healthcare data mining and machine learning.

摘要Packet classification (PC) has become the main method to support the quality of service and security of network application. And two-dimeusioual prefix packet classification (PPC) is the popular one. This paper analyzes the problem of ruler conflict, and then presents a TCAM-based two-dimensional PPC algorithm. This algorithm makes use of the parallelism of TCAM to lookup the longest prefix in one instruction cycle. Then it uses a memory image and associated data structures to eliminate the conflicts between rulers, and performs a fast two-dimeusional PPC. Compared with other algorithms, this algorithm has the least time complexity and less space complexity.
