Application of the Nadaraya-Watson estimator based attention mechanism to the field of predictive maintenance.

Attention mechanism has recently gained immense importance in the natural language processing (NLP) world. This technique highlights parts of the input text that the NLP task (such as translation) must pay "attention" to. Inspired by this, some researchers have recently applied the NLP domain, deep-learning based, attention mechanism techniques to predictive maintenance. In contrast to the deep-learning based solutions, Industry 4.0 predictive maintenance solutions that often rely on edge-computing, demand lighter predictive models. With this objective, we have investigated the adaptation of a simpler, incredibly fast and compute-resource friendly, "Nadaraya-Watson estimator based" attention method. We develop a method to predict tool-wear of a milling machine using this attention mechanism and demonstrate, with the help of heat-maps, how the attention mechanism highlights regions that assist in predicting onset of tool-wear. We validate the effectiveness of this adaptation on the benchmark IEEEDataPort PHM Society dataset, by comparing against other comparatively "lighter" machine learning techniques - Bayesian Ridge, Gradient Boosting Regressor, SGD Regressor and Support Vector Regressor. Our experiments indicate that the proposed Nadaraya-Watson attention mechanism performed best with an MAE of 0.069, RMSE of 0.099 and R2 of 83.40 %, when compared to the next best technique Gradient Boosting Regressor with figures of 0.100, 0.138, 66.51 % respectively. Additionally, it produced a lighter and faster model as well.•We propose a Nadaraya-Watson estimator based "attention mechanism", applied to a predictive maintenance problem.•Unlike the deep-learning based attention mechanisms from the NLP domain, our method creates fast, light and high-performance models, suitable for edge computing devices and therefore supports the Industry 4.0 initiative.•Method validated on real tool-wear data of a milling machine.

Plain-Woven Areca Sheath Fiber-Reinforced Epoxy Composites: The Influence of the Fiber Fraction on Physical and Mechanical Features and Responses of the Tribo System and Machine Learning Modeling.

Recent studies focus on enhancing the mechanical features of natural fiber composites to replace synthetic fibers that are highly useful in the building, automotive, and packing industries. The novelty of the work is that the woven areca sheath fiber (ASF) with different fiber fraction epoxy composites has been fabricated and tested for its tribological responses on three-body abrasion wear testing machines along with its mechanical features. The impact of the fiber fraction on various features is examined. The study also revolves around the development and validation of a machine learning predictive model using the random forest (RF) algorithm, aimed at forecasting two critical performance parameters: the specific wear rate (SWR) and the coefficient of friction (COF). The void fraction is observed to vary between 0.261 and 3.8% as the fiber fraction is incremented. The hardness of the mat rises progressively from 40.23 to 84.26 HRB. A fair ascent in the tensile strength and its modulus is also observed. Even though a short descent in flexural strength and its modulus is seen for 0 to 12 wt % composite specimens, they incrementally raised to the finest values of 52.84 and 2860 MPa, respectively, pertinent to the 48 wt % fiber-loaded specimen. A progressive rise in the ILSS and impact strength is perceptible. The wear behavior of the specimens is reported. The worn surface morphology is studied to understand the interface of the ASF with the epoxy matrix. The RF model exhibited outstanding predictive prowess, as evidenced by high R-squared values coupled with low mean-square error and mean absolute error metrics. Rigorous statistical validation employing paired t tests confirmed the model's suitability, revealing no significant disparities between predicted and actual values for both the SWR and COF.

Multimodal Abstractive Summarization using bidirectional encoder representations from transformers with attention mechanism.

In recent decades, abstractive text summarization using multimodal input has attracted many researchers due to the capability of gathering information from various sources to create a concise summary. However, the existing methodologies based on multimodal summarization provide only a summary for the short videos and poor results for the lengthy videos. To address the aforementioned issues, this research presented the Multimodal Abstractive Summarization using Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (MAS-BERT) with an attention mechanism. The purpose of the video summarization is to increase the speed of searching for a large collection of videos so that the users can quickly decide whether the video is relevant or not by reading the summary. Initially, the data is obtained from the publicly available How2 dataset and is encoded using the Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (Bi-GRU) encoder and the Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) encoder. The textual data which is embedded in the embedding layer is encoded using a bidirectional GRU encoder and the features with audio and video data are encoded with LSTM encoder. After this, BERT based attention mechanism is used to combine the modalities and finally, the BI-GRU based decoder is used for summarizing the multimodalities. The results obtained through the experiments that show the proposed MAS-BERT has achieved a better result of 60.2 for Rouge-1 whereas, the existing Decoder-only Multimodal Transformer (D-MmT) and the Factorized Multimodal Transformer based Decoder Only Language model (FLORAL) has achieved 49.58 and 56.89 respectively. Our work facilitates users by providing better contextual information and user experience and would help video-sharing platforms for customer retention by allowing users to search for relevant videos by looking at its summary.

Performance analysis of hybrid deep learning framework using a vision transformer and convolutional neural network for handwritten digit recognition.

Digitization created a demand for highly efficient handwritten document recognition systems. A handwritten document consists of digits, text, symbols, diagrams, etc. Digits are an essential element of handwritten documents. Accurate recognition of handwritten digits is vital for effective communication and data analysis. Various researchers have attempted to address this issue with modern convolutional neural network (CNN) techniques. Even after training, CNN filter weights remain unchanged despite the high identification accuracy. As a result, the process cannot flexibly adapt to input changes. Hence computer vision researchers have recently become interested in Vision Transformers (ViTs) and Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs). The shortcomings of CNNs gave rise to a hybrid model revolution that combines the best elements of the two fields. This paper analyzes how the hybrid convolutional ViT model affects the ability to recognize handwritten digits. Also, the real-time data contains noise, distortions, and varying writing styles. Hence, cleaned and uncleaned handwritten digit images are used for evaluation in this paper. The accuracy of the proposed method is compared with the state-of-the-art techniques, and the result shows that the proposed model achieves the highest recognition accuracy. Also, the probable solutions for recognizing other aspects of handwritten documents are discussed in this paper.•Analyzed the effect of convolutional vision transformer on cleaned and real-time handwritten digit images.•The model's performance improved with the implication of cross-validation and hyper-parameter tuning.•The results show that the proposed model is robust, feasible, and effective on cleaned and uncleaned handwritten digits.

Cervical Cancer Classification From Pap Smear Images Using Deep Convolutional Neural Network Models.

As one of the most common female cancers, cervical cancer often develops years after a prolonged and reversible pre-cancerous stage. Traditional classification algorithms used for detection of cervical cancer often require cell segmentation and feature extraction techniques, while convolutional neural network (CNN) models demand a large dataset to mitigate over-fitting and poor generalization problems. To this end, this study aims to develop deep learning models for automated cervical cancer detection that do not rely on segmentation methods or custom features. Due to limited data availability, transfer learning was employed with pre-trained CNN models to directly operate on Pap smear images for a seven-class classification task. Thorough evaluation and comparison of 13 pre-trained deep CNN models were performed using the publicly available Herlev dataset and the Keras package in Google Collaboratory. In terms of accuracy and performance, DenseNet-201 is the best-performing model. The pre-trained CNN models studied in this paper produced good experimental results and required little computing time.

HVDROPDB datasets for research in retinopathy of prematurity.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a retinal disorder that may bring about blindness in preterm infants. Early detection and treatment of ROP can prevent this blindness. The gold standard technique for ROP screening is indirect ophthalmoscopy performed by ophthalmologists. The scarcity of medical professionals and inter-observer heterogeneity in ROP grading are two of the screening concerns. Researchers employ artificial intelligence (AI) driven ROP screening systems to assist medical experts. A major hurdle in developing these systems is the unavailability of annotated data sets of fundus images. Anatomical landmarks in the retina, such as the optic disc, macula, blood vessels, and ridge, are used to identify ROP characteristics. HVDROPDB is the first dataset to be published for the retinal structure segmentation of fundus images of preterm infants. It is prepared from two diverse imaging systems on the Indian population for segmenting the lesions mentioned above and annotated by a group of ROP experts. Each dataset contains retinal fundus images of premature infants with the ground truths prepared manually to assist researchers in developing explainable automated screening systems.

Remaining Useful-Life Prediction of the Milling Cutting Tool Using Time-Frequency-Based Features and Deep Learning Models.

The milling machine serves an important role in manufacturing because of its versatility in machining. The cutting tool is a critical component of machining because it is responsible for machining accuracy and surface finishing, impacting industrial productivity. Monitoring the cutting tool's life is essential to avoid machining downtime caused due to tool wear. To prevent the unplanned downtime of the machine and to utilize the maximum life of the cutting tool, the accurate prediction of the remaining useful life (RUL) cutting tool is essential. Different artificial intelligence (AI) techniques estimate the RUL of cutting tools in milling operations with improved prediction accuracy. The IEEE NUAA Ideahouse dataset has been used in this paper for the RUL estimation of the milling cutter. The accuracy of the prediction is based on the quality of feature engineering performed on the unprocessed data. Feature extraction is a crucial phase in RUL prediction. In this work, the authors considers the time-frequency domain (TFD) features such as short-time Fourier-transform (STFT) and different wavelet transforms (WT) along with deep learning (DL) models such as long short-term memory (LSTM), different variants of LSTN, convolutional neural network (CNN), and hybrid models that are a combination of CCN with LSTM variants for RUL estimation. The TFD feature extraction with LSTM variants and hybrid models performs well for the milling cutting tool RUL estimation.

Machine learning for cognitive behavioral analysis: datasets, methods, paradigms, and research directions.

Human behaviour reflects cognitive abilities. Human cognition is fundamentally linked to the different experiences or characteristics of consciousness/emotions, such as joy, grief, anger, etc., which assists in effective communication with others. Detection and differentiation between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are paramount in learning to control our emotions and respond more effectively in stressful circumstances. The ability to perceive, analyse, process, interpret, remember, and retrieve information while making judgments to respond correctly is referred to as Cognitive Behavior. After making a significant mark in emotion analysis, deception detection is one of the key areas to connect human behaviour, mainly in the forensic domain. Detection of lies, deception, malicious intent, abnormal behaviour, emotions, stress, etc., have significant roles in advanced stages of behavioral science. Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning (AI/ML) has helped a great deal in pattern recognition, data extraction and analysis, and interpretations. The goal of using AI and ML in behavioral sciences is to infer human behaviour, mainly for mental health or forensic investigations. The presented work provides an extensive review of the research on cognitive behaviour analysis. A parametric study is presented based on different physical characteristics, emotional behaviours, data collection sensing mechanisms, unimodal and multimodal datasets, modelling AI/ML methods, challenges, and future research directions.

Integrative gene expression analysis for the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease using machine learning and explainable AI.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder. Various symptoms and diagnostic tests are used in combination for the diagnosis of PD; however, accurate diagnosis at early stages is difficult. Blood-based markers can support physicians in the early diagnosis and treatment of PD. In this study, we used Machine Learning (ML) based methods for the diagnosis of PD by integrating gene expression data from different sources and applying explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techniques to find the significant set of gene features contributing to diagnosis. We utilized the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), and Ridge regression for the feature selection process. We utilized state-of-the-art ML techniques for the classification of PD cases and healthy controls. Logistic regression and Support Vector Machine showed the highest diagnostic accuracy. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) based global interpretable model-agnostic XAI method was utilized for the interpretation of the Support Vector Machine model. A set of significant biomarkers that contributed to the diagnosis of PD were identified. Some of these genes are associated with other neurodegenerative diseases. Our results suggest that the utilization of XAI can be useful in making early therapeutic decisions for the treatment of PD. The integration of datasets from different sources made this model robust. We believe that this research article will be of interest to clinicians as well as computational biologists in translational research.

Multi-Ideology, Multiclass Online Extremism Dataset, and Its Evaluation Using Machine Learning.

Social media platforms play a key role in fostering the outreach of extremism by influencing the views, opinions, and perceptions of people. These platforms are increasingly exploited by extremist elements for spreading propaganda, radicalizing, and recruiting youth. Hence, research on extremism detection on social media platforms is essential to curb its influence and ill effects. A study of existing literature on extremism detection reveals that it is restricted to a specific ideology, binary classification with limited insights on extremism text, and manual data validation methods to check data quality. In existing research studies, researchers have used datasets limited to a single ideology. As a result, they face serious issues such as class imbalance, limited insights with class labels, and a lack of automated data validation methods. A major contribution of this work is a balanced extremism text dataset, versatile with multiple ideologies verified by robust data validation methods for classifying extremism text into popular extremism types such as propaganda, radicalization, and recruitment. The presented extremism text dataset is a generalization of multiple ideologies such as the standard ISIS dataset, GAB White Supremacist dataset, and recent Twitter tweets on ISIS and white supremacist ideology. The dataset is analyzed to extract features for the three focused classes in extremism with TF-IDF unigram, bigrams, and trigrams features. Additionally, pretrained word2vec features are used for semantic analysis. The extracted features in the proposed dataset are evaluated using machine learning classification algorithms such as multinomial Naïve Bayes, support vector machine, random forest, and XGBoost algorithms. The best results were achieved by support vector machine using the TF-IDF unigram model confirming 0.67 F1 score. The proposed multi-ideology and multiclass dataset shows comparable performance to the existing datasets limited to single ideology and binary labels.

Enhancing the Breast Histopathology Image Analysis for Cancer Detection Using Variational Autoencoder.

A breast tissue biopsy is performed to identify the nature of a tumour, as it can be either cancerous or benign. The first implementations involved the use of machine learning algorithms. Random Forest and Support Vector Machine (SVM) were used to classify the input histopathological images into whether they were cancerous or non-cancerous. The implementations continued to provide promising results, and then Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were applied for this purpose. We propose an approach for reconstructing the images using a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) and the Denoising Variational Autoencoder (DVAE) and then use a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model. Afterwards, we predicted whether the input image was cancerous or non-cancerous. Our implementation provides predictions with 73% accuracy, which is greater than the results produced by our custom-built CNN on our dataset. The proposed architecture will prove to be a new field of research and a new area to be explored in the field of computer vision using CNN and Generative Modelling since it incorporates reconstructions of the original input images and provides predictions on them thereafter.
