Abstract. This study describes two machine learning techniques applied to predict liquefaction susceptibility of soil based on the standard penetration test (SPT) data from the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan earthquake. The first machine learning technique which uses Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based on multi-layer perceptions (MLP) that are trained with Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation algorithm. The second machine learning technique uses the Support Vector machine (SVM) that is firmly based on the theory of statistical learning theory, uses classification technique. ANN and SVM have been developed to predict liquefaction susceptibility using corrected SPT [(N1)60] and cyclic stress ratio (CSR). Further, an attempt has been made to simplify the models, requiring only the two parameters [(N1)60 and peck ground acceleration (amax/g)], for the prediction of liquefaction susceptibility. The developed ANN and SVM models have also been applied to different case histories available globally. The paper also highlights the capability of the SVM over the ANN models.

This study aimed to enhance the accuracy of extreme rainfall forecast, using a machine learning technique for forecasting hydrological impact. In this study, machine learning with XGBoost technique was applied for correcting the quantitative precipitation forecast (QPF) provided by the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) to develop a hydrological quantitative precipitation forecast (HQPF) for flood inundation modeling. The performance of machine learning techniques for HQPF production was evaluated with a focus on two cases: one for heavy rainfall events in Seoul and the other for heavy rainfall accompanied by Typhoon Kong-rey (1825). This study calculated the well-known statistical metrics to compare the error derived from QPF-based rainfall and HQPF-based rainfall against the observational data from the four sites. For the heavy rainfall case in Seoul, the mean absolute errors (MAE) of the four sites, i.e., Nowon, Jungnang, Dobong, and Gangnam, were 18.6 mm/3 h, 19.4 mm/3 h, 48.7 mm/3 h, and 19.1 mm/3 h for QPF and 13.6 mm/3 h, 14.2 mm/3 h, 33.3 mm/3 h, and 12.0 mm/3 h for HQPF, respectively. These results clearly indicate that the machine learning technique is able to improve the forecasting performance for localized rainfall. In addition, the HQPF-based rainfall shows better performance in capturing the peak rainfall amount and spatial pattern. Therefore, it is considered that the HQPF can be helpful to improve the accuracy of intense rainfall forecast, which is subsequently beneficial for forecasting floods and their hydrological impacts.

In Requirement Engineering, software requirements are classified into two main categories: Functional Requirement (FR) and Non-Functional Requirement (NFR). FR describes user and system goals. NFR includes all constraints on services and functions. Deeper classification of those two categories facilitates the software development process. There are many techniques for classifying FR; some of them are Machine Learning (ML) techniques, and others are traditional. To date, the classification accuracy has not been satisfactory. In this paper, we introduce a new ensemble ML technique for classifying FR statements to improve their accuracy and availability. This technique combines different ML models and uses enhanced accuracy as a weight in the weighted ensemble voting approach. The five combined models are Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Classification (SVC). The technique was implemented, trained, and tested using a collected dataset. The accuracy of classifying FR was 99.45%, and the required time was 0.7 s.

Specialty coffees have a big importance in the economic scenario, and its sensory quality is appreciated by the productive sector and by the market. Researches have been constantly carried out in the search for better blends in order to add value and differentiate prices according to the product quality. To accomplish that, new methodologies must be explored, taking into consideration factors that might differentiate the particularities of each consumer and/or product. Thus, this article suggests the use of the machine learning technique in the construction of supervised classification and identification models. In a sensory evaluation test for consumer acceptance using four classes of specialty coffees, applied to four groups of trained and untrained consumers, features such as flavor, body, sweetness and general grade were evaluated. The use of machine learning is viable because it allows the classification and identification of specialty coffees produced in different altitudes and different processing methods.

The topic of Machine Learning is so popular that it is not only the future trend, but also the money tide. Machine learning technique and intelligent system methods are very popular in mechanical engineering. Robot laser surface hardening is one of the most promising techniques for surface modification of the microstructure of a material to improve wear and corrosion resistance. For predicting the surface roughness of the hardened specimens, the support vector machine and multiple regression is used. The aim of this paper is to present modeling roughness of point robot laser hardened specimens with different parameters of robot laser cell.


Now days when someone decide to book a hotel, previous online reviews of the hotels play a major role in determining the best hotel within the budget of the customer. Previous Online reviews are the most important motivation for the information that are used to analyse public opinion. Because of the high impact of the reviews on business, hotel owners are always highly concerned and focused about the customer feedback and past online reviews. But all reviews are not true and trustworthy, sometime few people may intentionally generate the fake reviews to make some hotel famous of to defame. Therefore it is essential to develop and propose the techniques for analysis of reviews. With the help of various machine learning techniques viz. Supervised machine learning technique, Text mining, Unsupervised machine learning technique, Semi-supervised learning, Reinforcement learning etc we may detect the fake reviews. This paper gives some notions of using machine learning techniques in analysis of past online reviews of hotels, Based on the observation it also suggest the optimal machine learning technique for a particular situation

<p>Information extraction from data is one of the key necessities for data analysis. Unsupervised nature of data leads to complex computational methods for analysis. This paper presents a density based spatial clustering technique integrated with one-class Support Vector Machine (SVM), a machine learning technique for noise reduction, a modified variant of DBSCAN called Noise Reduced DBSCAN (NRDBSCAN). Analysis of DBSCAN exhibits its major requirement of accurate thresholds, absence of which yields suboptimal results. However, identifying accurate threshold settings is unattainable. Noise is one of the major side-effects of the threshold gap. The proposed work reduces noise by integrating a machine learning classifier into the operation structure of DBSCAN. The Experimental results indicate high homogeneity levels in the clustering process.</p>

A wide reach on cancer prediction and detection using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) by the application of artificial intelligence is highly appreciated in the current scenario of the medical field. Next generation sequences were extracted from NCBI (National Centre for Biotechnology Information) gene repository. Sequences of normal Homo sapiens (Class 1), BRCA1 (Class 2) and BRCA2 (Class 3) were extracted for Machine Learning (ML) purpose. The total volume of datasets extracted for the process were 1580 in number under four categories of 50, 100, 150 and 200 sequences. The breast cancer prediction process was carried out in three major steps such as feature extraction, machine learning classification and performance evaluation. The features were extracted with sequences as input. Ten features of DNA sequences such as ORF (Open Reading Frame) count, individual nucleobase average count of A, T, C, G, AT and GC-content, AT/GC composition, G-quadruplex occurrence, MR (Mutation Rate) were extracted from three types of sequences for the classification process. The sequence type was also included as a target variable to the feature set with values 0, 1 and 2 for classes 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Nine various supervised machine learning techniques like LR (Logistic Regression statistical model), LDA (Linear Discriminant analysis model), k-NN (k nearest neighbours’ algorithm), DT (Decision tree technique), NB (Naive Bayes classifier), SVM (Support-Vector Machine algorithm), RF (Random Forest learning algorithm), AdaBoost (AB) and Gradient Boosting (GB) were employed on four various categories of datasets. Of all supervised models, decision tree machine learning technique performed most with maximum accuracy in classification of 94.03%. Classification model performance was evaluated using precision, recall, F1-score and support values wherein F1-score was most similar to the classification accuracy.
