Robotic-powered exoskeletons represent a promising avenue for aiding individuals with movement disorders in their daily activities and rehabilitation efforts. However, achieving precise joint torque estimation, particularly during dynamic movements, remains a significant challenge. While machinelearning and deep learning techniques have been explored for estimation, their efficacy has been limited, especially in dynamic scenarios. Our target is to improve ankle joint torque estimation during dynamic movements by employing multiple data augmentation techniques. Augmentation methods did not significantly improve cases involving the same subject or session. However, our experiments reveal substantial performance gains when combining spatial and signal augmentation methods, particularly in scenarios involving different subjects. This indicated that when facing an over-fitting problem caused by a lack of subjects, a combined data augmentation method will be a proper solution to improve the predicting performance.

With the growing data privacy concerns, federated machinelearning algorithms capable of preserving the confidentiality of sensitive information while enabling collaborative model training across decentralized data sources are attracting increasing interest. In this paper, we address the problem of collaboratively learning effective ranking models from non-independently and identically distributed (non-IID) training data owned by distinct search clients. We assume that the learning agents cannot access each other's data, and that the models learned from local datasets might be biased or underperforming due to a skewed distribution of certain document features or query topics in the learning-to-rank training data. Thus, we aim to instill in the local ranking model learned from local data the knowledge from other models to obtain a more robust ranker capable of effectively handling documents and queries underrepresented in the local collection. To achieve this, we explore different methods for merging the ranking models, thus obtaining in each client a model that excels in ranking documents from the local data distribution but also performs well on queries retrieving documents having distributions typical of a partner's node. In particular, our findings suggest that by relying on a linear combination of the local models, we can improve IR models effectiveness by up to +17.92% in NDCG@10 (moving from 0.619 to 0.730), and by up to +19.64% in MAP (moving from 0.713 to 0.853).

In the last years there has been a growing interest in adopting learning analytics (LA) in higher and further education systems. LA assists the institutional stakeholders to enhance the learning process, ameliorate the teaching activities, make adequate decisions and take appropriate actions based on the collection, analysis, and reporting of data generated from individual learners. The learning analytics approach aims to achieve many objectives, one of them is prediction which is the center of this research. In this paper, we conduct a comparative study between three machinelearning algorithms;Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), and Support Vector machine (SVM);to predict the stream of new enrollments in the first year of higher education. As a case study, the predictive model is applied to new enrollments in the first year of the University Diploma of Technology (DUT) at the Higher School of Technology in Meknes, Morocco (ESTM). The performance of the classifiers is tested with and without the use of SMOTE data balancing on a dataset of 53554 students collected between 2016 and 2019. The obtained results show the best algorithm to predict the most accurate enrollments of students.

Spatial datasets are used extensively to train machinelearning (ML) models for applications such as spatial regression, classification, clustering, and deep learning. Most of the real-world spatial datasets are often too large, and many spatial ML algorithms represent the geographical region as a grid consisting of several spatial cells. If the granularity of the grid is too fine, that results in a large number of grid cells leading to long training time and high memory consumption issues during the model training. To alleviate this problem, we propose a machinelearning-aware spatial data re-partitioning framework that substantially reduces the granularity of the spatial grid. Our spatial data re-partitioning approach combines fine-grained, adjacent spatial cells from a grid into coarser cells prior to training an ML model. During this re-partitioning phase, we keep the information loss within a user-defined threshold without significantly degrading the accuracy of the ML model. According to the empirical evaluation performed on several real-world datasets, the best results achieved by our spatial re-partitioning framework show that we can reduce the data volume and training time by up to 81%, while keeping the difference in prediction or classification error below 5% as compared to a model that is trained on the original input dataset, for most of the ML applications. Our re-partitioned framework also outperforms the state-of-the-art data reduction baselines by 2% to 20% w.r.t. prediction and classification errors.
