    Overfitting in Machine Learning: A Comparative Analysis of Decision Trees and Random Forests

    Erblin Halabaku, Eliot Bytyçi*
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.39, No.6, pp. 987-1006, 2024, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2024.059429 - 30 December 2024
    Abstract Machine learning has emerged as a pivotal tool in deciphering and managing this excess of information in an era of abundant data. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of machine learning algorithms, focusing on the structure and efficacy of random forests in mitigating overfitting—a prevalent issue in decision tree models. It also introduces a novel approach to enhancing decision tree performance through an optimized pruning method called Adaptive Cross-Validated Alpha CCP (ACV-CCP). This method refines traditional cost complexity pruning by streamlining the selection of the alpha parameter, leveraging cross-validation within the pruning process to achieve More >

    Evaluating the Effectiveness of Graph Convolutional Network for Detection of Healthcare Polypharmacy Side Effects

    Omer Nabeel Dara1,*, Tareq Abed Mohammed2, Abdullahi Abdu Ibrahim1
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.39, No.6, pp. 1007-1033, 2024, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2024.058736 - 30 December 2024
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Medical Imaging Decision Support Systems Using Deep Learning and Machine Learning Algorithms)
    Abstract Healthcare polypharmacy is routinely used to treat numerous conditions; however, it often leads to unanticipated bad consequences owing to complicated medication interactions. This paper provides a graph convolutional network (GCN)-based model for identifying adverse effects in polypharmacy by integrating pharmaceutical data from electronic health records (EHR). The GCN framework analyzes the complicated links between drugs to forecast the possibility of harmful drug interactions. Experimental assessments reveal that the proposed GCN model surpasses existing machine learning approaches, reaching an accuracy (ACC) of 91%, an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.88, and an More >

    Enhanced Diagnostic Precision: Deep Learning for Tumors Lesion Classification in Dermatology

    Rafid Sagban1,2,*, Haydar Abdulameer Marhoon3,4, Saadaldeen Rashid Ahmed5,6,*
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.39, No.6, pp. 1035-1051, 2024, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2024.058416 - 30 December 2024
    Abstract Skin cancer is a highly frequent kind of cancer. Early identification of a phenomenon significantly improves outcomes and mitigates the risk of fatalities. Melanoma, basal, and squamous cell carcinomas are well-recognized cutaneous malignancies. Malignant We can differentiate Melanoma from non-pigmented carcinomas like basal and squamous cell carcinoma. The research on developing automated skin cancer detection systems has primarily focused on pigmented malignant type melanoma. The limited availability of datasets with a wide range of lesion categories has hindered in-depth exploration of non-pigmented malignant skin lesions. The present study investigates the feasibility of automated methods for… More >

    A Deep Learning-Based Automated Approach of Schizophrenia Detection from Facial Micro-Expressions

    Anum Saher1, Ghulam Gilanie1,*, Sana Cheema1, Akkasha Latif1, Syeda Naila Batool1, Hafeez Ullah2
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.39, No.6, pp. 1053-1071, 2024, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2024.057047 - 30 December 2024
    Abstract Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness responsible for many of the world’s disabilities. It significantly impacts human society; thus, rapid, and efficient identification is required. This research aims to diagnose schizophrenia directly from a high-resolution camera, which can capture the subtle micro facial expressions that are difficult to spot with the help of the naked eye. In a clinical study by a team of experts at Bahawal Victoria Hospital (BVH), Bahawalpur, Pakistan, there were 300 people with schizophrenia and 299 healthy subjects. Videos of these participants have been captured and converted into their frames using… More >

    Secure Digital Image Watermarking Technique Based on ResNet-50 Architecture

    Satya Narayan Das1,2,*, Mrutyunjaya Panda2,*
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.39, No.6, pp. 1073-1100, 2024, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2024.057013 - 30 December 2024
    Abstract In today’s world of massive data and interconnected networks, it’s crucial to burgeon a secure and efficient digital watermarking method to protect the copyrights of digital content. Existing research primarily focuses on deep learning-based approaches to improve the quality of watermarked images, but they have some flaws. To overcome this, the deep learning digital image watermarking model with highly secure algorithms is proposed to secure the digital image. Recently, quantum logistic maps, which combine the concept of quantum computing with traditional techniques, have been considered a niche and promising area of research that has attracted… More >
