Machine Learning-Based Recognition On Crowdsourced Food Images, Aditya Kulkarni

Honors Scholar Theses

With nearly a third of the world’s population suffering from food-induced chronic diseases such as obesity, the role of food in community health is required now more than ever. While current research underscores food proximity and density, there is a dearth in regard to its nutrition and quality. However, recent research in geospatial data collection and analysis as well as intelligent deep learning will help us study this further.

Employing the efficiency and interconnection of computer vision and geospatial technology, we want to study whether healthy food in the community is attainable. Specifically, with the help of deep learning in …

Chaos In Metaheuristic Based Artificial Intelligence Algorithms:A Short Review, Gökhan Atali, İhsan Pehli̇van, Bi̇lal Gürevi̇n, Hali̇l İbrahi̇m Şeker

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Metaheuristic based artificial intelligence algorithms are commonly used in the solution of optimization problems. Another area -besides engineering systems- where chaos theory is widely employed is optimization problems. Being applied easily and not trapping in local optima, chaos-based search algorithms have attracted great attention. For example, it has been reported that when random number sequences generated from different chaotic systems are replaced with parameter values in bioinspired and swarm intelligence algorithms, an increase in the performance of metaheuristic algorithms is observed. Many scientific studies on developing hybrid algorithms in which metaheuristic algorithms and chaos theory are used together are already …

A Novel Method For Soc Estimation Of Li-Ion Batteries Using A Hybrid Machinelearning Technique, Eymen İpek, Murat Yilmaz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The battery system is one of the key components of electric vehicles (EV) which has brought groundbreaking technologies. Since modern EVs have mostly Li-ion batteries, they need to be monitored and controlled to achieve safe and high-performance operation. Particularly, the battery management system (BMS) uses complex processing systems that perform measurements, estimation of the battery states, and protection of the system. State of charge (SOC) estimation is a major part of these processes which defines remaining capacity in the battery until the next charging operation as a proportion to the total battery capacity. Since SOC is not a parameter that …

A Novel Fibonacci Hash Method For Protein Family Identification By Usingrecurrent Neural Networks, Talha Burak Alakuş, İbrahi̇m Türkoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Identification and classification of protein families are one of the most significant problem in bioinformatics and protein studies. It is essential to specify the family of a protein since proteins are highly used in smart drug therapies, protein functions, and, in some cases, phylogenetic trees. Some sequencing techniques provide researchers to identify the biological similarities of protein families and functions. Yet, determining these families with sequencing applications requires huge amount of time. Thus, a computer and artificial intelligence based classification system is needed to save time and avoid complexity in protein classification process. In order to designate the protein families …

Iso 9001:2015 Risk-Based Thinking: A Framework Using Fuzzy-Support Vector Machine, Ralph Sherwin A. Corpuz

Makara Journal of Technology

Risk-based thinking (RBT) is one of the distinct new features of the International Organization for Standardization 9001:2015. Interestingly, the standard does not prescribe any tools. Hence, organizations are puzzled as to the extent of conformance. Some organizations have adopted formal tools. However, these tools seem insufficient in linking the standard into an evidence-based decision support system. To resolve gaps in RBT implementation, this paper proposes a framework based on fuzzy inference system (FIS) and support vector machine (SVM) to automate risk analysis and evaluation, proposal and verification of action plans, and prediction of the feasibility of risks and opportunities according …

A Bibliometric Survey On The Reliable Software Delivery Using Predictive Analysis, Jalaj Pachouly, Swati Ahirrao, Ketan Kotecha

Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal)

Delivering a reliable software product is a fairly complex process, which involves proper coordination from the various teams in planning, execution, and testing for delivering software. Most of the development time and the software budget's cost is getting spent finding and fixing bugs. Rework and side effect costs are mostly not visible in the planned estimates, caused by inherent bugs in the modified code, which impact the software delivery timeline and increase the cost. Artificial intelligence advancements can predict the probable defects with classification based on the software code changes, helping the software development team make rational decisions. Optimizing the …

Chess As A Testing Grounds For The Oracle Approach To Ai Safety, James D. Miller, Roman Yampolskiy, Olle Häggström, Stuart Armstrong

Faculty and Staff Scholarship

To reduce the danger of powerful super-intelligent AIs, we might make the first such AIs oracles that can only send and receive messages. This paper proposes a possibly practical means of using machine learning to create two classes of narrow AI oracles that would provide chess advice: those aligned with the player's interest, and those that want the player to lose and give deceptively bad advice. The player would be uncertain which type of oracle it was interacting with. As the oracles would be vastly more intelligent than the player in the domain of chess, experience with these oracles might …

Research On Geographical Battlefield Environment Model Facing Autonomous Platform, You Xiong, Jiangpeng Tian

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Battlefield environment model is an abstraction and description of the complex battlefield environment for specific needs. It supports the research and application of the nature and evolution of the battlefield environment.

Automated Recognition Of Facial Affect Using Deep Neural Networks, Behzad Hasani

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Automated Facial Expression Recognition (FER) has been a topic of study in the field of computer vision and machine learning for decades. In spite of efforts made to improve the accuracy of FER systems, existing methods still are not generalizable and accurate enough for use in real-world applications. Many of the traditional methods use hand-crafted (a.k.a. engineered) features for representation of facial images. However, these methods often require rigorous hyper-parameter tuning to achieve favorable results.

Recently, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have shown to outperform traditional methods in visual object recognition. DNNs require huge data as well as powerful computing units …

Mining Semantic Knowledge Graphs To Add Explainability To Black Box Recommender Systems, Mohammed Alshammari, Olfa Nasraoui, Scott Sanders

Faculty and Staff Scholarship

Recommender systems are being increasingly used to predict the preferences of users on online platforms and recommend relevant options that help them cope with information overload. In particular, modern model-based collaborative filtering algorithms, such as latent factor models, are considered state-of-the-art in recommendation systems. Unfortunately, these black box systems lack transparency, as they provide little information about the reasoning behind their predictions. White box systems, in contrast, can, by nature, easily generate explanations. However, their predictions are less accurate than sophisticated black box models. Recent research has demonstrated that explanations are an essential component in bringing the powerful predictions of …
