AI-Based Prediction of Capital Structure: Performance Comparison of ANN SVM and LR Models.

Capital structure is an integral part of the corporate finance that sources the funds to finance growth and operations. Managers always have to maintain value of the firm to be higher than the cost of capital in order to maximize the shareholders wealth. Empirical studies have used sources of finance like debt and equity as variables of capital structure. A choice between debt and equity finance analyzes the firm's ability to perform under the financially constrained environment to attain the sustainable growth. Therefore, it gives rise to a dire need to estimate the cost of capital precisely. We examined the capital structure of top ten market capitalization of the stock markets included in MSCI Emerging index with the use of artificial neural networks, support vector regression, and linear regression in forecasting methods. The capital structure is measured as the proportion of total debt over total equity (Tang et al., 1991). Other financial ratios such as profitability, liquidity, solvent, and turnover ratios were considered as drivers of the capital structure. Applying logistic and hyperbolic tangent activation functions, it was concluded that ANN has a great potential of replacing other traditional forecasting models with the nonstationary data. This research contributes with a new dimension for estimation through different activation functions. There is a possibility of ANN dominance as compared to the other models applied for predictability in financial markets.

A Lightweight Hybrid Dilated Ghost Model-Based Approach for the Prognosis of Breast Cancer.

Most approaches use interactive priors to find tumours and then segment them based on tumour-centric candidates. A fully convolutional network is demonstrated for end-to-end breast tumour segmentation. When confronted with such a variety of options, to enhance tumour detection in digital mammograms, one uses multiscale picture information. Enhanced segmentation precision. The sampling of convolution layers are carefully chosen without adding parameters to prevent overfitting. The loss function is tuned to the tumor pixel fraction during training. Several studies have shown that the recommended method is effective. Tumour segmentation is automated for a variety of tumour sizes and forms postprocessing. Due to an increase in malignant cases, fundamental IoT malignant detection and family categorisation methodologies have been put to the test. In this paper, a novel malignant detection and family categorisation model based on the improved stochastic channel attention of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is presented. The lightweight deep learning model complies with tougher execution, training, and energy limits in practice. The improved stochastic channel attention and DenseNet models are employed to identify malignant cells, followed by family classification. On our datasets, the proposed model detects malignant cells with 99.3 percent accuracy and family categorisation with 98.5 percent accuracy. The model can detect and classify malignancy.
