Abstract Cyberbullying is a form of harassment or bullying that takes place online or through digital devices like smartphones, computers, or tablets. It can occur through various channels, such as social media, text messages, online forums, or gaming platforms. Cyberbullying involves using technology to intentionally harm, harass, or intimidate others and may take different forms, including exclusion, doxing, impersonation, harassment, and cyberstalking. Unfortunately, due to the rapid growth of malicious internet users, this social phenomenon is becoming more frequent, and there is a huge need to address this issue. Therefore, the main goal of the research… More >

Abstract Resin composites are commonly applied as the material for dental restoration. Wear of these materials is a major issue. In this study specimens made of dental composite materials were subjected to an in-vitro test in a pin-on-disc tribometer. Four different dental composite materials applied in the experiment were soaked in a solution of chewing tobacco for certain days before being removed and put through a wear test. Subsequently, four different machine learning (ML) algorithms (AdaBoost, CatBoost, Gradient Boosting, Random Forest) were implemented for developing models for the prediction of wear of dental materials.

Abstract In an era marked by escalating cybersecurity threats, our study addresses the challenge of malware variant detection, a significant concern for a multitude of sectors including petroleum and mining organizations. This paper presents an innovative Application Programmable Interface (API)-based hybrid model designed to enhance the detection performance of malware variants. This model integrates eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) classifier, offering a potent response to the sophisticated evasion and obfuscation techniques frequently deployed by malware authors. The model’s design capitalizes on the benefits of both static and dynamic analysis to extract… More >

Abstract Obesity is a critical health condition that severely affects an individual’s quality of life and well-being. The occurrence of obesity is strongly associated with extreme health conditions, such as cardiac diseases, diabetes, hypertension, and some types of cancer. Therefore, it is vital to avoid obesity and or reverse its occurrence. Incorporating healthy food habits and an active lifestyle can help to prevent obesity. In this regard, artificial intelligence (AI) can play an important role in estimating health conditions and detecting obesity and its types. This study aims to see obesity levels in adults by implementing… More >

Abstract Currently, the risk factors of pregnancy loss are increasing and are considered a major challenge because they vary between cases. The early prediction of miscarriage can help pregnant ladies to take the needed care and avoid any danger. Therefore, an intelligent automated solution must be developed to predict the risk factors for pregnancy loss at an early stage to assist with accurate and effective diagnosis. Machine learning (ML)-based decision support systems are increasingly used in the healthcare sector and have achieved notable performance and objectiveness in disease prediction and prognosis. Thus, we developed a model… More >

Abstract Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is an infrastructure-less network that is comprised of a set of nodes that move randomly. In MANET, the overall performance is improved through multipath multicast routing to achieve the quality of service (quality of service). In this, different nodes are involved in the information data collection and transmission to the destination nodes in the network. The different nodes are combined and presented to achieve energy-efficient data transmission and classification of the nodes. The route identification and routing are established based on the data broadcast by the network nodes. In transmitting… More >

Abstract Survival data with a multi-state structure are frequently observed in follow-up studies. An analytic approach based on a multi-state model (MSM) should be used in longitudinal health studies in which a patient experiences a sequence of clinical progression events. One main objective in the MSM framework is variable selection, where attempts are made to identify the risk factors associated with the transition hazard rates or probabilities of disease progression. The usual variable selection methods, including stepwise and penalized methods, do not provide information about the importance of variables. In this context, we present a two-step More >

Abstract A severe problem in modern information systems is Digital media tampering along with fake information. Even though there is an enhancement in image development, image forgery, either by the photographer or via image manipulations, is also done in parallel. Numerous researches have been concentrated on how to identify such manipulated media or information manually along with automatically; thus conquering the complicated forgery methodologies with effortlessly obtainable technologically enhanced instruments. However, high complexity affects the developed methods. Presently, it is complicated to resolve the issue of the speed-accuracy trade-off. For tackling these challenges, this article put… More >

Abstract Accurate prediction of monthly oil and gas production is essential for oil enterprises to make reasonable production plans, avoid blind investment and realize sustainable development. Traditional oil well production trend prediction methods are based on years of oil field production experience and expertise, and the application conditions are very demanding. With the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, big data analysis methods are gradually applied in various sub-fields of the oil and gas reservoir development. Based on the data-driven artificial intelligence algorithm Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT), this paper predicts the initial single-layer production by More >

Abstract In recent years, cervical cancer is one of the most common diseases which occur in any woman regardless of any age. This is the deadliest disease since there were no symptoms shown till it is diagnosed to be the last stage. For women at a certain age, it is better to have a proper screening for cervical cancer. In most underdeveloped nations, it is very difficult to have frequent scanning for cervical cancer. Data Mining and machine learning methodologies help widely in finding the important causes for cervical cancer. The proposed work describes a multi-class More >
