Accurate prediction of concrete compressive strength can minimize the need for extensive, time-consuming, and costly mixture optimization testing and analysis. This study attempts to enhance the prediction accuracy of compressive strength using stacking ensemble machine learning (ML) with feature engineering techniques. Seven alternative ML models of increasing complexity were implemented and compared, including linear regression, SVM, decision tree, multiple layer perceptron, random forest, Xgboost and Adaboost. To further improve the prediction accuracy, a ML pipeline was proposed in which the feature engineering technique was implemented, and a two-layer stacked model was developed. The k-fold cross-validation approach was employed to optimize model parameters and train the stacked model. The stacked model showed superior performance in predicting concrete compressive strength with a correlation of determination (R²) of 0.985. Feature (i.e., variable) importance was determined to demonstrate how useful the synthetic features are in prediction and provide better interpretability of the data and the model. The methodology in this study promotes a more thorough assessment of alternative ML algorithms and rather than focusing on any single ML model type for concrete compressive strength prediction.

Clustering analysis is widely used in data mining to classify data into categories on the basis of their similarity. Through the decades, many clustering techniques have been developed, including hierarchical and non-hierarchical algorithms. In gene profiling problems, because of the large number of genes and the complexity of biological networks, dimensionality reduction techniques are critical exploratory tools for clustering analysis of gene expression data. Recently, clustering analysis of applying dimensionality reduction techniques was also proposed. PCA (principal component analysis) is a popular methd of dimensionality reduction techniques for clustering problems. However, previous studies analyzed the performance of PCA for only full data sets. In this paper, to specifically and robustly evaluate the performance of PCA for clustering analysis, we exploit an improved FCBF (fast correlation-based filter) of feature selection methods for supervised clustering data sets, and employ two well-known clustering algorithms: k-means and k-medoids. Computational results from supervised data sets show that the performance of PCA is very poor for large-scale features.

온라인 사용자들이 소셜 미디어상에 올린 온라인 리뷰 속 숨겨진 감정을 분석하는 감성분석은 소셜미디어의 확산에 힘입어 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 본 연구는 기존 연구들과 차별화된 방법으로 감성분석을 시도하기 위하여 베이지안 네트워크에 기반한 감성 분석 모델을 제안한다. 모델에는 MBFS(Markov Blanket-based Feature Selection)가 속성 선택 기법으로 사용된다. MBFS의 성과를 실증적으로 증명하기 위하여 소셜미디어인 Yelp의 리뷰 데이터를 활용하였다. 벤치마킹 속성 선택 기법으로는 상관관계기반 속성 선택, 정보획득 속성 선택, 획득비율 속성 선택을 사용하였다. 한편, 해당 속성선택방법을 토대로 4개의 머신러닝 알고리즘을 이용하여 분류성과를 비교하였다. 나아가 MBFS로 선택된 속성들 간 인과관계를 확인하고자 베이지안 네트워크를 통해 What-if 분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에서 택한 머신러닝 분류기는 베이지안 네트워크 기반의 TAN (Tree Augmented Naive Bayes), NB (Naive Bayes), S-Spouses(Sons & Spouses), A-markov (Augmented Markov Blanket)이다. 성과분석 결과 본 연구에서 제안한 MBFS 방법이 정확도, 정밀도, F1점수 측면에서 벤치마킹 방법보다 더 우수한 성과를 나타내었다.

본 논문은 항정신병 약물의 복용량에 따른 음성 특징의 상관관계 분석을 수행하였다. 항정신병 약물의 대표적 부작용 중 하나인 추체외로 증상(ExtraPyramidal Symptoms, EPS) 발생에 따른 음성 특징의 패턴을 알아보기 위하여, 문장 개발을 통해 한국어 기반 추체외로 증상 음성 코퍼스를 구축하였다. 수집된 자료는 추체외로 증상 군과 비 추체외로 증상 군으로 나누어 음성 특징 패턴을 조사하였으며, 특히 추체외로 증상 군의 높은 음성 특징 상관관계를 보였다. 또한, 발화 문장의 종류가 음성 특징 패턴에 영향을 미친다는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 이를 통해 음성 특징을 기반한 추체외로 증상의 조기 발견 가능성을 기대해볼 수 있었다.

As one of the fundamental survey to evaluate purification capacity of pollutants at the tidal flat sediments, we studied vertical environmental characteristics in three tidal flat sediments, Chunjangdae, Eueunri and Gyewhado. These are dissmilar to external feature in each other. The results of this study may be summarized as followed; As the results of particle analysis, Eueunri tidal flat fediment located in Keum river estuary consists of 98.98% as silt & clay, Chunjangdae tidal flat sediment located in SeocheonGun consists of 97.99% as sand. And Gyewhado tidal flat sediment located in Saemankeum in Saemankeum area consists area consists of 32.81% as silt & clay and 67.19% as sand. The concentration of organic pollutants(I.L., COD, POC, PON) in Eueunri tidal flat sediment which highly content of silt & clay were 3~4 times higher than others. The concentration of organic pollutants at each layer were slightly increase goes with deepen layer. The linear correlation between I.L. and COD, POC, PON were obtained. Correlation coefficients were in range of 0.821~0.940. Also the correlation between pH and COD, POC, PON were high(>r=0.9). Filteration rate in Chunjangdae tidal flat sediment was 0.01584cm/s as mean value, but the other were almost nothing filtered off.

According to living environment, the number of deaths due to thyroid diseases increased. In this paper, we proposed an algorithm for recognizing a thyroid detection using texture analysis based on shape, gray level co-occurrence matrix and gray level run length matrix. First of all, we segmented the region of interest (ROI) using active contour model algorithm. Then, we applied a total of 18 features (5 first order descriptors, 10 Gray level co-occurrence matrix features(GLCM), 2 Gray level run length matrix features and shape feature) to each thyroid region of interest. The extracted features are used as statistical analysis. Our results show that first order statistics (Skewness, Entropy, Energy, Smoothness), GLCM (Correlation, Contrast, Energy, Entropy, Difference variance, Difference Entropy, Homogeneity, Maximum Probability, Sum average, Sum entropy), GLRLM features and shape feature helped to distinguish thyroid benign and malignant. This algorithm will be helpful to diagnose of thyroid nodule on ultrasound images.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an insidious and degenerative neurological disease. It is a new topic for AD patients to use magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computer technology and is gradually explored at present. Preprocessing and correlation analysis on MRI data are firstly made in this paper. Then kernel principal component analysis (KPCA) is used to extract features of brain gray matter images. Finally supervised classification schemes such as AdaBoost algorithm and support vector machine algorithm are used to classify the above features. Experimental results by means of AD program Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) database which contains brain structural MRI (sMRI) of 116 AD patients, 116 patients with mild cognitive impairment, and 117 normal controls show that the proposed method can effectively assist the diagnosis and analysis of AD. Compared with principal component analysis (PCA) method, all classification results on KPCA are improved by 2%-6% among which the best result can reach 84%. It indicates that KPCA algorithm for feature extraction is more abundant and complete than PCA.

Objectives: The retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) is a site of glaucomatous optic neuropathy whose early changes need to be detected because glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness. This paper proposes an automated RNFL detection method based on the texture feature by forming a co-occurrence matrix and a backpropagation neural network as the classifier. Methods: We propose two texture features, namely, correlation and autocorrelation based on a co-occurrence matrix. Those features are selected by using a correlation feature selection method. Then the backpropagation neural network is applied as the classifier to implement RNFL detection in a retinal fundus image. Results: We used 40 retinal fundus images as testing data and 160 sub-images (80 showing a normal RNFL and 80 showing RNFL loss) as training data to evaluate the performance of our proposed method. Overall, this work achieved an accuracy of 94.52%. Conclusions: Our results demonstrated that the proposed method achieved a high accuracy, which indicates good performance.

This study describes the emotion classification using two different feature extraction methods for four-channel EEG signals. One of the methods is linear prediction analysis based on AR model. Another method is cross-correlation coefficients on frequencies of ${\theta}$, ${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$ bands. Using the linear predictor coefficients and the cross-correlation coefficients of frequencies, the emotion classification test for four emotions, such as anger, sad, joy, and relaxation is performed with a neural network. Comparing the results of two methods, it seems that the linear predictor coefficients produce the better results than the cross-correlation coefficients of frequencies for-emotion classification.
