Flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC) of carbon steel piping is a significant problem in nuclear power plants. The basic process of FAC is currently understood relatively well; however, the accuracy of prediction models of the wall-thinning rate under an FAC environment is not reliable. Herein, we propose a methodology to construct pipe wall-thinning rate prediction models using artificial neural networks and a convolutional neural network, which is confined to a straight pipe without geometric changes. Furthermore, a methodology to generate training data is proposed to efficiently train the neural network for the development of a machine learning-based FAC prediction model. Consequently, it is concluded that machine learning can be used to construct pipe wall thinning rate prediction models and optimize the number of training datasets for training the machine learning algorithm. The proposed methodology can be applied to efficiently generate a large dataset from an FAC test to develop a wall thinning rate prediction model for a real situation.

Haze removal is an object of scientific desire due to its various practical applications. Existing algorithms are founded upon histogram equalization, contrast maximization, or the growing trend of applying machine learning in image processing. Since machine learning-based algorithms solve problems based on the data, they usually perform better than those based on traditional image processing/computer vision techniques. However, to achieve such a high performance, one of the requisites is a large and reliable training database, which seems to be unattainable owing to the complexity of real hazy and haze-free images acquisition. As a result, researchers are currently using the synthetic database, obtained by introducing the synthetic haze drawn from the standard uniform distribution into the clear images. In this paper, we propose the enhanced equidistribution, improving upon our previous study on equidistribution, and use it to make a new database for training machine learning-based haze removal algorithms. A large number of experiments verify the effectiveness of our proposed methodology.

Cyberbullying is a problem that is faced in many cultures. Due to their popularity and interactive nature, social media platforms have also been affected by cyberbullying. Social media users from Arab countries have also reported being a target of cyberbullying. Machine learning techniques have been a prominent approach used by scientists to detect and battle this phenomenon. In this paper, we compare different machine learning algorithms for their performance in cyberbullying detection based on a labeled dataset of Arabic YouTube comments. Three machine learning models are considered, namely: Multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB), Complement Naïve Bayes (CNB), and Linear Regression (LR). In addition, we experiment with two feature extraction methods, namely: Count Vectorizer and Tfidf Vectorizer. Our results show that, using count vectroizer feature extraction, the Logistic Regression model can outperform both Multinomial and Complement Naïve Bayes models. However, when using Tfidf vectorizer feature extraction, Complement Naive Bayes model can outperform the other two models.

By Digital Transformation, new technologies like ML (Machine Learning), Big Data, Cloud, VR/AR are being used to video streaming technology. We choose ML to provide optimal QoE (Quality of Experience) in various network conditions. In other words, ML helps DASH in providing non-stopping video streaming. In DASH, the source video is segmented into short duration chunks of 2-10 seconds, each of which is encoded at several different bitrate levels and resolutions. We built and compared the performances of five prototypes after applying five different machine learning algorithms to DASH. The prototype consists of a dash.js, a video processing server, web servers, data sets, and five machine learning models.

Quantum machine learning (QML) is an area of quantum computing that leverages its principles to develop machine learning algorithms and techniques. QML is aimed at combining traditional machine learning with the capabilities of quantum computing to devise approaches for problem solving and (big) data processing. Nevertheless, QML is in its early stage of the research and development. Thus, more theoretical studies are needed to understand whether a significant quantum speedup can be achieved compared with classical machine learning. If this is the case, the underlying physical principles may be explained. First, fundamental concepts and elements of QML should be established. We describe the inception and development of QML, highlighting essential quantum computing algorithms that are integral to QML. The advent of the noisy intermediate-scale quantum era and Google's demonstration of quantum supremacy are then addressed. Finally, we briefly discuss research prospects for QML.

Owing to advancements in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and artificial-intelligence technologies, various machine-learning models can be employed to simulate and predict the number of traffic accidents under different weather conditions. Furthermore, we can analyze the relationship between weather and traffic accidents, allowing us to assess whether the current weather conditions are suitable for travel, which can significantly reduce the risk of traffic accidents. In this study, we analyzed 30000 traffic flow data points collected by traffic cameras at nearby intersections in Washington, D.C., USA from October 2012 to May 2017, using Pearson's heat map. We then predicted, analyzed, and compared the performance of the correlation between continuous features by applying several machine-learning algorithms commonly used in ITS, including random forest, decision tree, gradient-boosting regression, and support vector regression. The experimental results indicated that the gradient-boosting regression machine-learning model had the best performance.

The continuous shrinking of transistors in integrated circuits leads to difficulties in improving performance, resulting in the emerging transistors such as nanosheet field-effect transistors. In this paper, we propose a TCAD-machine learning framework of nanosheet FETs to model the current-voltage characteristics. Sentaurus TCAD simulations of nanosheet FETs are performed to obtain a large amount of device data. A machine learning model of I-V characteristics is trained using the multi-layer perceptron from these TCAD data. The weights and biases obtained from multi-layer perceptron are implemented in a PSPICE netlist to verify the accuracy of I-V and the DC transfer characteristics of a CMOS inverter. It is found that the proposed machine learning model is applicable to the prediction of nanosheet field-effect transistors device and circuit performance.
