Improving Arabic Spam classification in social media using hyperparameters tuning and Particle Swarm Optimization

Amr Mohamed El Koshiry , Entesar H. Ibraheem Eliwa , Ahmed Omar

Online social networks continue to evolve, serving a variety of purposes, such as sharing educational content, chatting, making friends and followers, sharing news, and playing online games. However, the widespread flow of unwanted messages poses significant problems, including reducing online user interaction time, extremist views, reducing the quality of information, especially in the educational field. The use of coordinated automated accounts or robots on social networking sites is a common tactic for spreading unwanted messages, rumors, fake news, and false testimonies for mass communication or targeted users. Since users (especially in the educational field) receive many messages through social media, they often fail to recognize the content of unwanted messages, which may contain harmful links, malicious programs, fake accounts, false reports, and misleading opinions. Therefore, it is vital to regulate and classify disturbing texts to enhance the security of social media. This study focuses on building an Arabic disturbing message dataset extracted from Twitter, which consists of 14,250 tweets. Our proposed methodology includes applying new tag identification technology to collected tweets. Then, we use prevailing machine learning algorithms to build a model for classifying disturbing messages in Arabic, using effective parameter tuning methods to obtain the most suitable parameters for each algorithm. In addition, we use particle swarm optimization to identify the most relevant features to improve the classification performance. The results indicate a clear improvement in the classification performance from 0.9822 to 0.98875, with a 50% reduction in the feature set. Our study focuses on Arabic spam messages, classifying spam messages, tuning effective parameters, and selecting features as key areas of investigation.

EEG-Based Brain-Computer Interfaces Using Gazelle Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning for Motor-Imagery Classification

P. Radhakrishnan , Abullaıs Nehal Ahmed , K. Kalaiarasi , Koppisetti Giridhar , S. Thenappan

Brain-computer interface (BCI) is a procedure of connecting the central nervous system to the device. In the past few years, BCI was conducted by Electroencephalography (EEG). By linking EEG with other neuro imaging technologies like functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), promising outcomes were attained. An important stage of BCI is brain state identification from verified signal properties. Classifying EEG signals for motor imagery (MI) is a common use in the BCI system. Motor imagery includes imagining the movement of certain body parts without executing the physical movement. Deep Artificial Neural Network (DNN) obtained unprecedented complex classification outcomes. Such performances were obtained by an effective learning algorithm, improved computation power, restricted or back-fed neuron connection, and valuable activation function. Therefore, this study develops a Gazelle Optimization Algorithm with Deep Learning based Motor-Imagery Classification (GOADL-MIC) technique for EEG-Based BCI. The GOADL-MIC technique aims to exploit hyperparameter-tuned DL model for the recognition and identification of MI signals. To achieve this, the GOADL-MIC model initially undergoes the conversion of one dimensional-EEG signals into 2D time-frequency amplitude one. Besides, the EfficientNet-B3 system is applied for the effectual derivation of feature vector and its hyperparameters can be selected by using GOA. Finally, the classification of MIs takes place using bi-directional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM). The experimentation result analysis of the GOADL-MIC method is verified utilizing the BCI dataset and the results demonstrate the promising results of the GOADL-MIC algorithm over its counter techniques

Sathyamoorthy k. , Ravikumar S.

In this work, a statistical model is constructed to forecast the possibility of lung nodules that may grow in the future. This study segments all potential lung nodule candidates using the Multi-scale 3D UNet (M-3D-UNet) method. 34 patients' CT scan series yielded an average of approximately 600 nodule candidates larger than 3 mm, which were then segmented. After removing the arteries, non-nodules and 3D shape variation analysis, 34 actual nodules remained. On actual nodules, the nodule growth Rate (NGR) was calculated in terms of 3D-volume change. Three of the 34 actual nodules had RNG values greater than one, indicating that they were malignant. Compactness, Tissue deficit, Tissue excess, Isotropic Factor and Edge gradient were used to develop the nodule growth predictive measure.

Ramitha M. A. , N. Mohanasundaram , R. Santhosh

Pneumonia is a medical condition affecting 100 million people globally, and rates are predicted to reach epidemic levels within the next several decades. As a result of the air sacs in both or even one lung becoming inflamed, the patient may experience fever, chills, and trouble breathing. Coughs with pus may also occur. Various organisms can cause pneumonia, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Early detection of pneumonia can allow the severity of the purulent material to be reduced. The ability of computer-aided detection techniques to reliably diagnose pneumonia has made them popular among scientists. We used a pre-trained Inception V3Net, Squeeze Excitation-based deep Convolutional Neural Network (SE-CNN) that was trained on the Kermany dataset and the RSNA Pneumonia Detection Challenge dataset in this study. In early-stage detection, the suggested technique beat previous state-of-the-art networks, achieving 91% precision in severity rating. Furthermore, our network's accuracy, recall, f1-score, as well as quadratic weighted kappa were reported to be 91.56%, 91%, and 90%, respectively. In terms of processing time and space, our suggested framework is simple, precise, and effective.

Efficient Intrusion Detection using OptCNN-LSTM Model based on hybrid Correlation-based Feature Selection in IoMT

Sultan Almotairi , Deepak Dasaratha Rao , Olayan Alharbi , Zaid Alzaid , Yasser M. Hausawi , Jaber Almutairi

Intrusion detection in the IoMT (Internet of Medical Things) represents the process of keeping track of and discovering unauthorized or malicious actions in medical devices and networks. Some of its benefits include early detection of potential threats, prevention of data breaches, and protection of patient privacy. Aside from these benefits, some difficulties are evident, like alarm fatigue due to false positives, the complexity in the standardizing detection across different devices, and resource limits that hinder qualitative implementations, thus leaving some vulnerabilities in the healthcare infrastructure. This paper proposes a new Efficient Intrusion Detection model based on the Correlation-Based Feature Selection and the OptCNN-LSTM model to address these problems. The proposed methodology comprises five key phases: (i) Data Acquisition (ii) Pre-processing (iii) Feature Extraction (iv) Feature Selection (v) OptCNN-LSTM Model-based intrusion detection. The raw data is first gathered and then preprocessed using z-score normalization and data cleaning. Then, the best features are extracted using central tendency, the degree of dispersion, and correlation. A mixed IHHO-PSO feature with the Correlation-based Feature Selection (CFS) framework is employed to choose the best features amongst the collected features. At last, the OptCNN-LSTM model is performed to detect the intrusion in the IoMT based on features-selected data. The CNN is tuned using the Levy Flight Optimization (LF) which can be further combined with the LSTM to get the expected results. The code is written in Python and the model is then run to determine its performance which is measured in terms of accuracy, precision, f-measure, and a Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC). Compared to the current models, the proposed model has the highest accuracies 97.6% and 96.5% for learning rates 70 and 80, respectively…

Deep Neural Network Discipline and Consequence to be Achieved through Internet Implementation Dropdown

Haitham S. Hasan

The difficulty of automatically modifying and updating operations within Deep Learning (DL) frameworks can slow down the performance of Deep Neural Network processing (DNNs). This research presents a novel approach to software optimization by leveraging dynamically collected profile data. A unique online auto-tuning system for DNNs was developed to enhance both the training and inference phases. Python Distributed Training of Neural Networks (PyDTNN) is a lightweight toolkit designed for distributed DNN training and estimation. It is utilized to evaluate the VGG19 model on two distinct multi-core architecture options. In testing, our auto-tuning system performs comparably, if not better, than a static selection strategy. The performance of each variation of PyDTNN that employs static selection remains consistently high throughout execution. Conversely, the auto-tuned version initially performs at a set level and progressively improves as more feasible choices become available. While both variations yield similar results in training, the selection strategy outperforms all other inference options by autonomously determining the best strategy for each layer in VGG19. The new online implementation selection tool assists in choosing the best performance option from numerous alternatives while the program is running. Its key features include constructing layered judgments and thoroughly examining 35 possibilities. Our advanced systems represent the optimal choice for monitoring sustainable environmental systems with maximum effectiveness, efficiency, and timeliness.

Efficient Sink Node Position Estimation using Harris Hawks Optimization Algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks

R. Padmaraj , K. Selvakumar

Wireless sensor network (WSN) was utilized widely in numerous areas owing to their accessibility in data collection, processing, and transmission, and the strength and reliability of data processing and transmission are based on the accuracy of the positions of sensor nodes (SNs) in the WSN. Sink node location estimation in WSN is a vital task intended to define the geographical position of the sink node in the network area of coverage. This procedure normally includes using numerous localization techniques that trust data like received signal strength, arrival time, time variance of arrival, or angle of arrival from adjacent SNs. The accuracy of sink node localization directly influences the efficiency of data aggregation, routing procedures, and complete performance of the network in tasks like environmental monitoring, target tracking, and event recognition. As WSNs are frequently used in remote environments where physical involvement is unusable, an effective and accurate sink node localization model plays a vital part in certifying the network's longevity and reliability. This study develops an Efficient Sink Node Position Estimation using the Harris Hawks Optimization (SNPE-HHO) Algorithm in WSN. The main intention of the SNPE-HHO technique is to recognize the optimal position of the sink node in the network. To achieve this, the SNPE-HHO technique employs the HHO system which gets inspiration from the hunting tactics of Harris Hawk. Moreover, the SNPE-HHO technique computes a fitness function that can drive the searching direction of the HHO algorithm and enhance the node estimation performance. The performance analysis of the SNPE-HHO method is verified by utilizing distinct metrics. The experimentation values confirmed the improved estimation performance of the SNPE-HHO technique over other existing methods

Combines diesel fuel with cheese to enhance engine efficiency and mitigate detrimental pollutants. Analyzed using a meticulous approach derived from the ISO 8178 standard, combinations containing different ratios of cheese are investigated. The aim of the research is to conduct a multivariate analysis that provides insights into the rheology of diesel and kerosene mixes, thereby enhancing our understanding of the fuel's properties and performance. The researchers conducted experimental trials utilizing diesel blends with varying proportions of cheese, including 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%. A descriptive and multivariate analysis was conducted to measure parameters such as opacity, NOx, CO, HC emissions, and fuel efficiency under different load circumstances. The study identified key elements that determine gasoline characteristics and emissions, including density, viscosity, calorific value, and sulfur content. It emphasized that the addition of cheese had a significant impact on these crucial factors. Two separate categories were created based on the composition of fuel. Blends containing a lower amount of cheesesine (up to 20%) formed a cluster that exhibited an ideal equilibrium in terms of both performance and emissions. The groupings of factors are interconnected, with substantial correlations shown between the physical qualities of the fuel and emissions. This highlights the direct impact of the fuel composition on the engine's environmental performance.

María Lorena Merızalde Avıles , Emver Nivela Ortega , Kleber Eduardo Carrion Leon , Wiem Abdelbaki

This study addresses a particular issue in relation to the disambiguation of human views, which remains critical in the current era that is the quest for suitable instruments that can cognize, simulate, and interpret the multilayered nature of the standpoint. Today, in contexts where a decision must be made that requires a synthesis of different and often-opposed points of view, such methods are very limited. This methodological gap focuses on the question where ways and means are lacking, which combine analytical accuracy and the flexibility of approaches for dealing with huge amounts of complex and unstructured information. To mitigate this problem, the study seeks for the application of neutrosophic methods and languages as a new approach for understanding human perceptions, which present a great deal of uncertainty. From the combined angles of neutrosophic logic and special linguistic devices, images from different practical situations are scrutinized. The results indicate that this method not only enhances the accuracy with which human subjectivity is simulated but also renders stronger analytical models for application in the area of organizational strategy, public policy formulation and even marketing research. In conclusion, this research extends new and significant methodological boundaries to the social and applied sciences and provides a useful approach to the problem of interpretation and decision-making in a multidimensional and time-changing society.
