An Analysis Conducted Retrospectively on the Use: Artificial Intelligence in the Detection of Uterine Fibroid
subject: DCNN; Deep Learning; Fibroids; Magnetic resonance imaging; Ultrasonography
description: The most frequent benign pelvic tumors in women of age of conception are uterine fibroids, sometimes referred to as leiomyomas. Ultrasonography is presently the first imaging modality utilized as clinical identification of uterine fibroids since it has a high degree of specificity and sensitivity and is less expensive and more widely accessible than CT and MRI examination. However, certain issues with ultrasound based uterine fibroid diagnosis persist. The main problem is the misunderstanding of pelvic and adnexal masses, as well as subplasmic and large fibroids. The specificity of fibroid detection is impacted by the existing absence of standardized image capture views and the variations in performance amongst various ultrasound machines. Furthermore, the proficiency and expertise of ultra sonographers determines the accuracy of the ultrasound diagnosis of uterine fibroids. In this work, we created a Deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) model that automatically identifies fibroids in the uterus in ultrasound pictures, distinguishes between their presence and absence, and has been internally as well as externally validated in order to increase the reliability of the ultrasound examinations for uterine fibroids. Additionally, we investigated whether Deep convolutional neural networks model may help junior ultrasound practitioners perform better diagnostically by comparing it to eight ultrasound practitioners at different levels of experience. 2024 IEEE.

subject: Adaptive Algorithms; Bias Mitigation; Content Embedding; Cosine Similarity; Cultural Nuances; Cultural Relevance Score; Cultural Sensitivity; Data Auditing; Diversity in Training Datasets; Named Entity Recognition (NER); Natural Language Processing (NLP); Personalized Learning Paths; Sentiment Analysis
description: This innovative study reimagines the role of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in individualized education by highlighting the critical need to incorporate cultural subtleties. While natural language processing (NLP) offers great potential for improving classroom instruction, current research frequently fails to account for the complex issues caused by cultural variation. This research fills a significant need by providing a novel framework for the detection and incorporation of cultural subtleties into individualized learning programs. Further research into common biases is driving the development of natural language processing models with greater cultural sensitivity and awareness, such as gender bias in Named Entity Recognition (NER) and sentiment bias in cultural preferences. In order to correct past biases and promote gender neutrality in educational content, the research makes use of an adaptive NER algorithm and a diverse training dataset. Similarly, to guarantee nuanced and fair sentiment evaluations, the study suggests regularly evaluating and retraining sentiment algorithms with datasets that represent multiple cultures. A Cultural Relevance Score of 0.9, Adaptive Content Embedding vectors [0.3, 0.6, -0.2.], and an impressive Cosine Similarity of 0.85 are some of the evaluation measures that highlight the effectiveness of the research. These measurements show encouraging gains, which confirms that the research might help make schools more welcoming and sensitive to different cultures. The research has the potential to revolutionize individualized education by making it more accessible and engagingfor students from all backgrounds. 2024 IEEE.

subject: Apache NiFi; Custom processor; Data ingestion; File validation; Frequency validation
description: In the industries of today, development and maintenance of data pipelines is of paramount importance. With large volumes of data being generated across industries on a continuous basis, there is a growing need to process and store this ingested data in a fast, and efficient manner. Apache NiFi is one such tool which possesses crucial capabilities that can be used to enhance, modify, and automate data pipelines. However, automation of the ingestion process creates certain inherent issues which, without being resolved, tend to be detrimental to the entire ingestion process. These issues vary in nature, ranging from corrupted data to changes in the file schema, to name a few. In this paper, a solution to this problem is proposed. By exploiting Apache NiFis custom processor development capabilities, problem-specific processors can be designed and deployed which can ensure accurate validation of the ingestion process on a real-time basis. To demonstrate this, two processors were developed as a proof-of-concept, which tackle specific file-related validation issues in the ingestion processthat of the file size, and, the ingestion frequency. These custom-built processors are designed to be inserted into the pipeline at key points to ensure that the ingested data is validated against certain standards and requirements. Having successfully demonstrated its capabilities, the paper presents the exploitation of Apache NiFis custom processor capabilities as a potential way forward to resolve the plethora of ingestion issues in industry, today.

A Comprehensive Review of Linear Regression, Random Forest, XGBoost, and SVR: Integrating Machine Learning and Actuarial Science for Health Insurance Pricing
subject: Actuarial science; Artificial intelligence; Data science; Machine learning; Supervised learning
description: Actuarial science and data science are being studied as a fusion using Industry 4.0 technologies such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, big data, and machine learning (ML) algorithms. When analyzing earlier components of actuarial science, it could have been more accurate and quick, but when later stages of AI and ML were integrated, the algorithms weren't up to the standard, and actuaries experienced some accuracy concerns. The company requires actuaries to be precise with analysis to acquire reliable results. As a result of the large amount of data these companies collect, a choice made manually may turn out to be incorrect. We will, therefore, examine alternative models in this article as part of the decision-making process. Once we have chosen the best path of action, we will use our actuarial expertise to evaluate the risk associated with specific charges features.

Insights on the Optical and Infrared Nature of MAXI J0709-159: Implications for High-Mass X-ray Binaries
subject: Circumstellar disks; Classical Be stars; HMXB; Photometry
description: In our previous study (Bhattacharyya et al., 2022), HD 54786, the optical counterpart of the MAXI J0709-159 system, was identified to be an evolved star, departing from the main sequence, based on comparisons with non-X-ray binary systems. In this paper, using color-magnitude diagram (CMD) analysis for High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) and statistical t-tests, we found evidence supporting HD 54786s potential membership in both Be/X-ray binaries (BeXRBs) and supergiant X-ray binaries (SgXBs) populations of HMXBs. Hence, our study points towards dual optical characteristics of HD 54786, as an X-ray binary star and also belonging to a distinct evolutionary phase from BeXRB towards SgXB. Our further analysis suggests that MAXI J0709-159, associated with HD 54786, exhibits low-level activity during the current epoch and possesses a limited amount of circumstellar material. Although similarities with the previously studied BeXRB system LSI +61? 235 (Coe et al., 1994) are noted, continued monitoring and data collection are essential to fully comprehend the complexities of MAXI J0709-159 and its evolutionary trajectory within the realm of HMXBs. 2024 Societe Royale des Sciences de Liege.

subject: Autoregression; Classifier-free guidance; Diffusion models; Generative adversarial networks; Guided diffusion; Image inpainting; Image tokenization; Image-to-Image generation; Text-to-image generation
description: In this study, researchers aimed to simplify text conversion into images using the latest text-to-image generation methods. While these methods have improved the quality and relevance of generated images, certain crucial questions remained unanswered, limiting their practicality and overall quality. To address these issues, the researchers introduced a novel text-to-image method. This method allows for better control of the scene depicted in the image through text, enhances the tokenization process by incorporating specific knowledge about key image regions such as faces and important objects, and provides guidance to the transformer model without needing a classifier. The outcome of this work was a model that achieved state-of-the-art results in terms of image quality and human evaluation, enabling the generation of high-fidelity 512?512-pixel images. Moreover, this method introduced new capabilities, including scene editing, text editing with reference scenes, handling out-of-distribution text prompts, and generating story illustrations.

Study of the Balmer Decrements for Galactic Classical Be Stars Using the Himalayan Chandra Telescope of India
subject: Balmer decrement; Be star; emission lines; spectroscopy; variability
description: In a recent study, Banerjee et al. (2021) produced an atlas of all major emission lines found in a large sample of 115 Galactic field Be stars using the 2-m Himalayan Chandra Telescope (HCT) facility located at Ladakh, India. This paper presents our further exploration of these stars to estimate the electron density in their discs. Our study using Balmer decrement values indicate that their discs are generally optically thick in nature with electron density (ne) in their circumstellar envelopes (CEs) being in excess of 1013 cm-3 for around 65% of the stars. For another 19% stars, the average ne in their discs probably range between 1012 cm-3 and 1013 cm-3. We noticed that the nature of the H? and H? line profiles might not influence the observed Balmer decrement values (i.e. D34 and D54) of the sample of stars. Interestingly, we also found that around 50% of the Be stars displaying D34 greater than 2.7 are of earlier spectral types, i.e. within B0B3. 2024 Societe Royale des Sciences de Liege.

Unsupervised Learning for Understanding Diversity: Applying Feature Engineering and Cluster Analysis to Deaf and Hard of Hearing Data
subject: DHH; feature engineering clustering; k-means; personalization
description: As e-Learning emerges as a promising tool for instruction delivery, personalizing the e-Learning platform for DHH learners will benefit them to improve their learning engagement and educational attainment. This study aims to collect and analyze the different features unique to DHH learners and analyze the significant features among them. This study highlights the importance of addressing the diversity among DHH learners, while creating a personalized learning environment for them. With this focus, we employ the K-Means clustering algorithm to group the learners based on similar needs and preferences and identified that distinguishing clusters can be formed within the DHH group. We also tried to understand the significant features contributing to forming well separated groups. These results provide valuable insights into the diverse preferences and requirements when they interact with the learning materials. These findings emphasize the significance of personalized approach for DHH learners in educational settings and serve as the stepping stone to develop a personalized learning environment for them. 2024 IEEE.

subject: Big data; Data; Data analytics; Data economy; Data monetization; Data sources; Data valuation; Digital ecosystem; Digital transformation
description: The article explores the concept of data economy, which is based on the sharing of data across platforms and ecosystems. Data has evolved from factual information to a new asset for companies worldwide, and the article discusses its evolution from brittle paper records to complex databases and algorithms like blockchain. With a prediction of a data explosion of about 175 zettabytes by 2025, data is used extensively in various domains, from agriculture to healthcare. The article also discusses how the data economy is not domain-specific but is a universal shift as all companies transition to become technology-driven companies. The data network effect is a cycle that uses data to acquire service users and generate more data. This has become a B2B service model that has added profits to various tech giants balance sheets. The article concludes by exploring the current need for data sharing across organizations and the future scope of the data economy.

Role of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics in Shaping the Students: A Higher Educational Perspective
subject: and Students; Artificial intelligence; Higher education; Robotics
description: An unprecedented shift in technology has begun in the modern era. Robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) advancements have created fresh positions while de-skilling or retraining many existing ones. Technical developments at higher education institutions (HEIs) protect students against potential changes in their field of study brought on by A) and prepare them for success in the workplace. This research aims to investigate how, over the past 150 years; globalization has fundamentally changed human civilization. Conventional education confronts enormous challenges as energy, the internet of things, and the cyber-physical systems they oversee diminish. One may argue that energy, the internet of things, and the cyber-physical systems that are under its jurisdiction are the foundations of all future education. The demise of these systems presents a significant threat to traditional schooling. Students' screen time is increased by this action, which has an impact on their mental health. Five-fold cross-validation with 210 students from Delhi NCR and abroad is beneficial for the classification techniques SVM, Naive Bayes, and Random Forest. The study examined the factors that contributed to an increased rate of mental health issues among undergraduate students in Delhi, India, following the introduction of the COVID-19 virus. The results have demonstrated that while technology's practical applications will likely have a positive influence on education in the future, there may be negative effects as well. This is an opportunity for educators and learners to support excellence and remove obstacles that prevent many kids and schools from achieving it. Therefore, in the future, every nation will need to create an education system that is more technologically sophisticated. 2024 IEEE.

subject: Artificial neural network; K-Nearest neighbors; Logistic regression; Machine learning; Naive bayes; Natural language processing; Random forest; Sentiment analysis; Supervised
description: Analyzing the sentiment behind emojis can provide valuable insights into the emotional context and user sentiment associated with textual content. To conduct a comparative analysis of diverse supervised machine learning models that can achieve the highest level of accuracy in Emoji Sentiment Analysis is the purpose of this research. Five machine learning models used in this research are K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes, and Random Forest. The experimental process resulted in ANN and KNN models giving an accuracy of 92%. The ANN model shows its proficiency in effectively managing large datasets. ANN also supports fault tolerance. The KNN model refrains from conducting calculations during the training phase and only constructs a model when a query is executed on the dataset. This characteristic makes KNN particularly well-suited for data mining. Both ANN and K-NN excelled in the experimental study due to these distinctive attributes.
