Pose variation has been one of the challenges of face recognition. To solve this challenge, the authors propose a classification algorithm using supervised subspace learning and non-local representation (SSLNR). In SSLNR, they first propose a supervised subspace learning algorithm (SSLA). SSLA includes three different terms. The first term is the difference term, which can reduce the intra-class differences. The second term is the block-diagonal regularisation term, which promotes the samples to be represented by intra-class samples. The last one is the noise robust term. Then, the original samples are mapped to the learned subspace by using SSLA. Thus, the intra-class differences of the samples mapped to the learned subspace are reduced. Finally, those mapped samples are classified by proposed non-local constraint-based extended sparse representation classifier. SSLNR is extensively evaluated using four databases, namely Georgia Tech, Label faces in the wild, FEI and CVL. Experimental results show that SSLNR achieves better performance than some state-of-the-art algorithms, such as DARG and RRNN.

The COVID-19 epidemic has highlighted the significance of sanitization and maintaining hygienic access to clean water to reduce mortality and morbidity cases worldwide. Diarrhea is one of the prevalent waterborne diseases caused due to contaminated water in many low-income countries with similar living conditions. According to the latest statistics from the World Health Organization (WHO), diarrhea is among the top five primary causes of death worldwide in low-income nations. The condition affects people in every age group due to a lack of proper water used for daily living. In this study, a stacking ensemble machine learning model was employed against traditional models to extract clinical knowledge for better understanding patients' characteristics;disease prevalence;hygienic conditions;quality of water used for cooking, bathing, and toiletries;chemicals used;therapist's medications;and symptoms that are reflected in the field study data. Results revealed that the ensemble model provides higher accuracy with 98.90% as part of training and testing phases when experimented against frequently used J48, Naive Bayes, SVM, NN, PART, Random Forest, and Logistic Regression models. Managing outcomes of this research in the early stages could assist people in low-income countries to have a better lifestyle, fewer infections, and minimize expensive hospital visits.

In recent years, the popularity of weight training has increased significantly. However, incorrect technique or physical form while performing an exercise can not only slow down progress but also cause serious injuries. Deadlift is a famous weight training exercise, which if done incorrectly, can lead to chronic back pain. In this paper, we present a wearable pressure sensor system that checks the posture of the user while performing deadlift. The suit employs a set of flexible pressure sensors, made using velostat (piezoresistive) material, to get the amount of bending for specific muscles. We have developed an algorithm to process the data in real-time so that feedback about incorrect posture can be provided to the user immediately. The algorithm has been configured using data from a single subject, however, it provides accurate classification for multiple subjects in the same weight class, thus eliminating the need for subject-wise configuration. The algorithm classifies a repetition (rep) of the exercise into a good rep or bad rep with an overall accuracy of 95.5%, across three subjects. With some enhancements, the system can also be configured to classify reps of other exercises.

Wireless networks have become integral to society as they provide mobility and scalability advantages. However, their disadvantage is that they cannot control the media, which makes them vulnerable to various types of attacks. One example of such attacks is the evil twin access point (AP) attack, in which an authorized AP is impersonated by mimicking its service set identifier (SSID) and media access control (MAC) address. Evil twin APs are a major source of deception in wireless networks, facilitating message forgery and eavesdropping. Hence, it is necessary to detect them rapidly. To this end, numerous methods using clock skew have been proposed for evil twin AP detection. However, clock skew is difficult to calculate precisely because wireless networks are vulnerable to noise. This paper proposes an evil twin AP detection method that uses a multiple-feature-based machine learning classification algorithm. The features used in the proposed method are clock skew, channel, received signal strength, and duration. The results of experiments conducted indicate that the proposed method has an evil twin AP detection accuracy of 100% using the random forest algorithm.

With 5G network globalization, consumers have higher requirements for telecom operators' services. It is necessary to predict consumer satisfaction for analyzing consumer requirements. Based on the understanding of telecommunications services, the wireless network consumer satisfaction prediction is divided into three sub-predictive models: network quality, promotional activities, and tariff packages. At the same time, a hybrid sampling algorithm based on support vector machine (HS-SVM) which is used to classify the consumer satisfaction imbalance dataset is proposed to predict the consumer satisfaction of these three sub-predictive models, and the consumer's overall satisfaction is obtained by merging the results of the three sub-predictive models. The validity of the model is verified by wireless network consumer satisfaction dataset compared with the popular five separate classification algorithms and SMOTE combined with the five classification algorithms. The experimental results show that the F-value and G-mean of the proposed algorithm are improved. The proposed method has better classification performance and stronger robustness in the prediction of wireless network consumer satisfaction.

Ischemic stroke is a major cause of death and disability in adulthood worldwide. Because it has highly heterogeneous phenotypes, phenotyping of ischemic stroke is an essential task for medical research and clinical prognostication. However, this task is not a trivial one when the study population is large. Phenotyping of ischemic stroke depends primarily on manual annotation of medical records in previous studies. This article evaluated various strategies for automated phenotyping of ischemic stroke into the four subtypes of the Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project classification based on structured and unstructured data from electronical medical records (EMRs). A total of 4640 adult patients who were hospitalized for acute ischemic stroke in a teaching hospital were included. In addition to the structured items in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, unstructured clinical narratives were preprocessed using MetaMap to identify medical concepts, which were then encoded into feature vectors. Various supervised machine learning algorithms were used to build classifiers. The study results indicate that textual information from EMRs could facilitate phenotyping of ischemic stroke when this information was combined with structured information. Furthermore, decomposition of this multi-class problem into binary classification tasks followed by aggregation of classification results could improve the performance.

The amount of information increases explosively in Internet of Things, because more and more data are sensed by large amount of sensors. The explosive growth of information makes it difficult to access information efficiently, so it is an effective method to decrease the amount of information to be transferred on network by text classification. This paper proposes a new text classification algorithm based on vector space model. This algorithm improves the feature selection and weighting methods by introducing synonym replacement to traditional text classification algorithms. The experimental results show that the proposed classification algorithm has considerably improved the precision and recall of classification.

Multi-view data represented in multiple views contains more complementary information than a single view, whereby multi-view learning explores and utilizes the multi-view data. In general, most existing multi-view learning methods consider the correlation between multiple views. However, the relationship between classes and views which is also important in multi-view learning has never been involved in the existing works. In this paper, we propose a fast and effective multi-view nearest-subspace classifier (MV-NSC) by taking advantage of both the two relationships simultaneously. MV-NSC consists of four main parts: 1) projection residual, 2) view-dependent class separability, 3) view similarity, and 4) final decision. The last part combines the first three parts in one final decision matrix, while the first three parts utilize the information of the multi-view data in various aspects. Our proposed method is evaluated on four benchmark datasets and compared with seven other classifiers including both multi-and single-view algorithms. According to the experimental results, it shows that our proposed method is effective, efficient, and robust in multi-view classification.

In this letter, we propose a multimodal method for improving radio frequency (RF) fingerprinting performance that uses multiple features cultivated from RF signals. Combining multiple features, including a falling transient feature that has not previously been used in RF fingerprinting studies, we aim to demonstrate that the proposed method results in improved accuracy. We show that a sparse representation-based classification (SRC) scheme can be a good platform for combining multiple features. The experimental results on RF signals acquired from eight walkie-talkies show that the RF fingerprinting accuracy of the proposed method improves significantly as the number of features increases.

Credit risk is the most important issue for financial institutions. Its assessment becomes an important task used to predict defaulter customers and classify customers as good or bad payers. To this objective, numerous techniques have been applied for credit risk assessment. However, to our knowledge several evaluations techniques are black-box models such as neural networks, SVM, etc. They generate applicants' classes without any explanation. In this paper, we propose to assess credit risk using rules classification method. Our output is a set of rules, which describe and explain the decision. To this end, we will compare seven classification algorithms (JRip, Decision Table, OneR, ZeroR, Fuzzy Rule, PART and Genetic programming (GP)) where the goal is to find the best rules satisfying many criteria: Accuracy, Sensitivity and Specificity. The obtained results confirm the efficiency of the GP algorithm for German and Australian datasets compared to other rule-based techniques to predict credit risk.
