    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1085-1112, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.053603
    Abstract This paper investigates the application of machine learning to develop a response model to cardiovascular problems and the use of AdaBoost which incorporates an application of Outlier Detection methodologies namely; Z-Score incorporated with Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) as well as Interquartile Range (IQR) coupled with Ant Colony Optimization (ACO). Using a performance index, it is shown that when compared with the Z-Score and GWO with AdaBoost, the IQR and ACO, with AdaBoost are not very accurate (89.0% vs. 86.0%) and less discriminative (Area Under the Curve (AUC) score of 93.0% vs. 91.0%). The Z-Score and GWO… More >

    Zakir Hussain Ahmed1,*, Maha Ata Al-Furhood2, Abdul Khader Jilani Saudagar3, Shakir Khan4
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1113-1131, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.053574
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Metaheuristics Optimization for Real-World Applications)
    Abstract The generalized travelling salesman problem (GTSP), a generalization of the well-known travelling salesman problem (TSP), is considered for our study. Since the GTSP is NP-hard and very complex, finding exact solutions is highly expensive, we will develop genetic algorithms (GAs) to obtain heuristic solutions to the problem. In GAs, as the crossover is a very important process, the crossover methods proposed for the traditional TSP could be adapted for the GTSP. The sequential constructive crossover (SCX) and three other operators are adapted to use in GAs to solve the GTSP. The effectiveness of GA using More >

    A Double-Interactively Recurrent Fuzzy Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller Model Combined with an Improved Particle Swarm Optimization Method for Fall Detection

    Jyun-Guo Wang*
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1149-1170, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.052931
    Abstract In many Eastern and Western countries, falling birth rates have led to the gradual aging of society. Older adults are often left alone at home or live in a long-term care center, which results in them being susceptible to unsafe events (such as falls) that can have disastrous consequences. However, automatically detecting falls from video data is challenging, and automatic fall detection methods usually require large volumes of training data, which can be difficult to acquire. To address this problem, video kinematic data can be used as training data, thereby avoiding the requirement of creating… More >

    Amita U. Dessai*, Hassanali G. Virani
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1193-1211, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.052710

    Abstract Emotion recognition is a growing field that has numerous applications in smart healthcare systems and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI). However, physical methods of emotion recognition such as facial expressions, voice, and text data, do not always indicate true emotions, as users can falsify them. Among the physiological methods of emotion detection, Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a reliable and efficient way of detecting emotions. ECG-enabled smart bands have proven effective in collecting emotional data in uncontrolled environments. Researchers use deep machine learning techniques for emotion recognition using ECG signals, but there is a need to develop efficient models… More >

    Building a Smart Management System for the Field Training Course at the Faculty of Specific Education-Mansoura University

    Soha A. Shaban*, Amira A. Atta, Dalia L. Elsheweikh
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1213-1250, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.052603
    Abstract Field training is the backbone of the teacher-preparation process. Its importance stems from the goals that colleges of education aim to achieve, which include bridging the gap between theory and practice and aligning with contemporary educational trends during teacher training. Currently, trainee students attendance in field training is recorded manually through signatures on attendance sheets. However, this method is prone to impersonation, time wastage, and misplacement. Additionally, traditional methods of evaluating trainee students are often susceptible to human errors during the evaluation and scoring processes. Field training also lacks modern technology that the supervisor can… More >

    MPDP: A Probabilistic Architecture for Microservice Performance Diagnosis and Prediction

    Talal H. Noor*
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1273-1299, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.052510
    Abstract In recent years, container-based cloud virtualization solutions have emerged to mitigate the performance gap between non-virtualized and virtualized physical resources. However, there is a noticeable absence of techniques for predicting microservice performance in current research, which impacts cloud service users’ ability to determine when to provision or de-provision microservices. Predicting microservice performance poses challenges due to overheads associated with actions such as variations in processing time caused by resource contention, which potentially leads to user confusion. In this paper, we propose, develop, and validate a probabilistic architecture named Microservice Performance Diagnosis and Prediction (MPDP). MPDP… More >

    Abstract As an important application of intelligent transportation system, Internet of Vehicles (IoV) provides great convenience for users. Users can obtain real-time traffic conditions through the IoV’s services, plan users' travel routes, and improve travel efficiency. However, in the IoV system, there are always malicious vehicle nodes publishing false information. Therefore, it is essential to ensure the legitimacy of the source. In addition, during the peak period of vehicle travel, the vehicle releases a large number of messages, and IoV authentication efficiency is prone to performance bottlenecks. Most existing authentication schemes have the problem of low… More >

    Research on Feature Matching Optimization Algorithm for Automotive Panoramic Surround View System

    Guangbing Xiao*, Ruijie Gu, Ning Sun, Yong Zhang
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1329-1348, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.050817
    Abstract In response to the challenges posed by insufficient real-time performance and suboptimal matching accuracy of traditional feature matching algorithms within automotive panoramic surround view systems, this paper has proposed a high-performance dimension reduction parallel matching algorithm that integrates Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Dual-Heap Filtering (DHF). The algorithm employs PCA to map the feature points into the lower-dimensional space and employs the square of Euclidean distance for feature matching, which significantly reduces computational complexity. To ensure the accuracy of feature matching, the algorithm utilizes Dual-Heap Filtering to filter and refine matched point pairs. To further More >

    P. K. A. Chitra1, S. Appavu alias Balamurugan2, S. Geetha3, Seifedine Kadry4,5,6, Jungeun Kim7,*, Keejun Han8
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1367-1385, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.034373
    Abstract A generalization of supervised single-label learning based on the assumption that each sample in a dataset may belong to more than one class simultaneously is called multi-label learning. The main objective of this work is to create a novel framework for learning and classifying imbalanced multi-label data. This work proposes a framework of two phases. The imbalanced distribution of the multi-label dataset is addressed through the proposed Borderline MLSMOTE resampling method in phase 1. Later, an adaptive weighted l21 norm regularized (Elastic-net) multi-label logistic regression is used to predict unseen samples in phase 2. The proposed… More >

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.48, No.5, pp. 1387-1403, 2024, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.033902
    Abstract Handwritten character recognition becomes one of the challenging research matters. More studies were presented for recognizing letters of various languages. The availability of Arabic handwritten characters databases was confined. Almost a quarter of a billion people worldwide write and speak Arabic. More historical books and files indicate a vital data set for many Arab nations written in Arabic. Recently, Arabic handwritten character recognition (AHCR) has grabbed the attention and has become a difficult topic for pattern recognition and computer vision (CV). Therefore, this study develops fireworks optimization with the deep learning-based AHCR (FWODL-AHCR) technique. The… More >
