Abstract The analysis of microstates in EEG signals is a crucial technique for understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of brain electrical activity. Traditional methods such as Atomic Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering (AAHC), K-means clustering, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Independent Component Analysis (ICA) are limited by a fixed number of microstate maps and insufficient capability in cross-task feature extraction. Tackling these limitations, this study introduces a Global Map Dissimilarity (GMD)-driven density canopy K-means clustering algorithm. This innovative approach autonomously determines the optimal number of EEG microstate topographies and employs Gaussian kernel density estimation alongside the GMD index for… More >

Abstract Due to the exponential growth of video data, aided by rapid advancements in multimedia technologies. It became difficult for the user to obtain information from a large video series. The process of providing an abstract of the entire video that includes the most representative frames is known as static video summarization. This method resulted in rapid exploration, indexing, and retrieval of massive video libraries. We propose a framework for static video summary based on a Binary Robust Invariant Scalable Keypoint (BRISK) and bisecting K-means clustering algorithm. The current method effectively recognizes relevant frames using BRISK… More >

Abstract The dimensionality of data is increasing very rapidly, which creates challenges for most of the current mining and learning algorithms, such as large memory requirements and high computational costs. The literature includes much research on feature selection for supervised learning. However, feature selection for unsupervised learning has only recently been studied. Finding the subset of features in unsupervised learning that enhances the performance is challenging since the clusters are indeterminate. This work proposes a hybrid technique for unsupervised feature selection called GAk-MEANS, which combines the genetic algorithm (GA) approach with the classical k-Means algorithm. In… More >

Abstract Several pests feed on leaves, stems, bases, and the entire plant, causing plant illnesses. As a result, it is vital to identify and eliminate the disease before causing any damage to plants. Manually detecting plant disease and treating it is pretty challenging in this period. Image processing is employed to detect plant disease since it requires much effort and an extended processing period. The main goal of this study is to discover the disease that affects the plants by creating an image processing system that can recognize and classify four different forms of plant diseases, More >

Abstract An appropriate optimal number of market segments (ONS) estimation is essential for an enterprise to achieve successful market segmentation, but at present, there is a serious lack of attention to this issue in market segmentation. In our study, an independent adaptive ONS estimation method BWCON-NSDK-means++ is proposed by integrating a new internal validity index (IVI) Between-Within-Connectivity (BWCON) and a new stable clustering algorithm Natural-SDK-means++ (NSDK-means++) in a novel way. First, to complete the evaluation dimensions of the existing IVIs, we designed a connectivity formula based on the neighbor relationship and proposed the BWCON by integrating… More >

Abstract Data mining and analytics involve inspecting and modeling large pre-existing datasets to discover decision-making information. Precision agriculture uses data mining to advance agricultural developments. Many farmers aren’t getting the most out of their land because they don’t use precision agriculture. They harvest crops without a well-planned recommendation system. Future crop production is calculated by combining environmental conditions and management behavior, yielding numerical and categorical data. Most existing research still needs to address data preprocessing and crop categorization/classification. Furthermore, statistical analysis receives less attention, despite producing more accurate and valid results. The study was conducted on… More >

Abstract An improved fuzzy time series algorithm based on clustering is designed in this paper. The algorithm is successfully applied to short-term load forecasting in the distribution stations. Firstly, the K-means clustering method is used to cluster the data, and the midpoint of two adjacent clustering centers is taken as the dividing point of domain division. On this basis, the data is fuzzed to form a fuzzy time series. Secondly, a high-order fuzzy relation with multiple antecedents is established according to the main measurement indexes of power load, which is used to predict the short-term trend More >

Abstract Specific medical data has limitations in that there are not many numbers and it is not standardized. to solve these limitations, it is necessary to study how to efficiently process these limited amounts of data. In this paper, deep learning methods for automatically determining cardiovascular diseases are described, and an effective preprocessing method for CT images that can be applied to improve the performance of deep learning was conducted. The cardiac CT images include several parts of the body such as the heart, lungs, spine, and ribs. The preprocessing step proposed in this paper divided… More >

Abstract Colorization is the practice of adding appropriate chromatic values to monochrome photographs or videos. A real-valued luminance image can be mapped to a three-dimensional color image. However, it is a severely ill-defined problem and not has a single solution. In this paper, an encoder-decoder Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model is used for colorizing gray images where the encoder is a Densely Connected Convolutional Network (DenseNet) and the decoder is a conventional CNN. The DenseNet extracts image features from gray images and the conventional CNN outputs a * b * color channels. Due to a large number of desaturated… More >

Abstract Accurate electricity forecasting is the key basis for guiding the power sector to arrange operation plans and guaranteeing the profitability of electric power companies. However, with the increasing demand of enterprises and departments for data security, the phenomenon of “Isolated Data Island” becomes more and more serious, resulting in the accuracy loss of the traditional electricity prediction model. Federated learning, as an emerging artificial intelligence technology, is designed to ensure data privacy while carrying out efficient machine learning, which provides a new way to solve the problem of “Isolated Data Island” in terms of electricity… More >
