Predicting Attrition - A Driver For Creating Value, Realizing Strategy, And Refining Key Hr Processes, Kevin Mendonsa, Maureen Stolberg, Vivek Viswanathan, Scott Crum

SMU Data Science Review

Talent is the most important asset for every organization's success. While attrition (or churn) and turnover can refer to both employees and customers, this paper will focus on employee attrition only. Many organizations accept attrition as an inevitable cost of doing business and do nothing to adopt or implement mitigating strategies to combat it. World class companies on the other hand take deliberate measures to understand, control and mitigate attrition (turnover) at every stage. Unmitigated attrition can have a devastating effect on an organization's bottom line and market value. In addition, the “invisible" costs of low employee morale, reduced employee …

Comparison Of Machine Learning Models: Gesture Recognition Using A Multimodal Wrist Orthosis For Tetraplegics, Charlie Martin

The Journal of Purdue Undergraduate Research

Many tetraplegics must wear wrist braces to support paralyzed wrists and hands. However, current wrist orthoses have limited functionality to assist a person’s ability to perform typical activities of daily living other than a small pocket to hold utensils. To enhance the functionality of wrist orthoses, gesture recognition technology can be applied to control mechatronic tools attached to a novel fabricated wrist brace. Gesture recognition is a growing technology for providing touchless human-computer interaction that can be particularly useful for tetraplegics with limited upper-extremity mobility. In this study, three gesture recognition models were compared—two dynamic time-warping models and a hidden …

Our paper describes and evaluates our undergraduate course at the University of Minnesota Morris, which fosters understanding of the main ideas behind ML. With Communication, Media & Rhetoric and Computer Science faculty expertise, students from a variety of majors, …

Atmospheric Contrail Detection With A Deep Learning Algorithm, Nasir Siddiqui

Scholarly Horizons: University of Minnesota, Morris Undergraduate Journal

Aircraft contrail emission is widely believed to be a contributing factor to global climate change. We have used machine learning techniques on images containing contrails in hopes of being able to identify those which contain contrails and those that do not. The developed algorithm processes data on contrail characteristics as captured by long-term image records. Images collected by the United States Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Management user facility(ARM) were used to train a deep convolutional neural network for the purpose of this contrail classification. The neural network model was trained with 1600 images taken by the Total Sky Imager(TSI) …

A negative relationship between Nitrogen Free Extract (NFE) and Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) at NFE content ≥25 % was observed. PER was predicted with 85 % accuracy, while Weight Gain …

Monocular Depth Image Mark-Less Pose Estimation Based On Feature Regression, Chen Ying, Shen Li

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Monocular camera mark-less pose estimation system suffers low accuracy, robustness and efficiency due to variety of action, self-occlusion of human body. A method of feature exaction from point clouds was proposed, in which a single-to-multiple (S2M) feature regressor and a joint position regressor were designed to quickly and accurately predict the 3D positions of body joints from a single depth image without any temporal information. Experiment result shows that the estimation accuracy is superior to that of state-of-the-arts and multi-camera based methods.

Dynamically Updated Diversified Ensemble-Based Approach For Handling Concept Drift, Kanu Goel, Shalini Batra

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Concept drift is the phenomenon where underlying data distribution changes over time unexpectedly. Examining such drifts and getting insight into the executing processes at that instance of time is a big challenge. Prediction models should be capable of handling drifts in scenarios where statistical properties show abrupt changes. Various strategies exist in the literature to deal with such challenging scenarios but the majority of them are limited to the identification of a particular kind of drift pattern. The proposed approach uses online drift detection in a diversified adaptive setting with pruning techniques to formulate a concept drift handling approach, named …

Satire Identification In Turkish News Articles Based On Ensemble Of Classifiers, Aytuğ Onan, Mansur Alp Toçoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Social media and microblogging platforms generally contain elements of figurative and nonliteral language, including satire. The identification of figurative language is a fundamental task for sentiment analysis. It will not be possible to obtain sentiment analysis methods with high classification accuracy if elements of figurative language have not been properly identified. Satirical text is a kind of figurative language, in which irony and humor have been utilized to ridicule or criticize an event or entity. Satirical news is a pervasive issue on social media platforms, which can be deceptive and harmful. This paper presents an ensemble scheme for satirical news …

Revised Polyhedral Conic Functions Algorithm For Supervised Classification, Gürhan Ceylan, Gürkan Öztürk

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In supervised classification, obtaining nonlinear separating functions from an algorithm is crucial for prediction accuracy. This paper analyzes the polyhedral conic functions (PCF) algorithm that generates nonlinear separating functions by only solving simple subproblems. Then, a revised version of the algorithm is developed that achieves better generalization and fast training while maintaining the simplicity and high prediction accuracy of the original PCF algorithm. This is accomplished by making the following modifications to the subproblem: extension of the objective function with a regularization term, relaxation of a hard constraint set and introduction of a new error term. Experimental results show that …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Lung cancer is one of the deadly cancer types, and almost 85 % of lung cancers are nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In the present study we investigated classification and feature selection methods for the differentiation of two subtypes of NSCLC, namely adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC). The major advances in understanding the effects of therapy agents suggest that future targeted therapies will be increasingly subtype specific. We obtained positron emission tomography (PET) images of 93 patients with NSCLC, 39 of which had ADC while the rest had SqCC. Random walk segmentation was applied to delineate three-dimensional tumor …

Sketic: A Machine Learning-Based Digital Circuit Recognition Platform, Mohamamd Abdel Majeed, Tasneem Almousa, Maysaa Alsalman, Abeer Yosef

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In digital system design, digital logic circuit diagrams are built using interconnects and symbolic representations of the basic logic gates. Constructing such diagrams using free sketches is the first step in the design process. After that the circuit schematic or code has to be generated before being able to simulate the design. While most of the mentioned steps are automated using design automation tools, drafting the schematic circuit and then converting it into a valid format that can be simulated are still done manually due to the lack of robust tools that can recognize the free sketches and incorporate them …
