Robustness, Stability, and Fidelity of Explanations for a Deep Skin Cancer Classification Model
2022
Skin cancer is one of the most prevalent of all cancers. Because of its being widespread and externally observable, there is a potential that machine learning models integrated into artificial intelligence systems will allow self-screening and automatic analysis in the future. Especially, the recent success of various deep machine learning models shows promise that, in the future, patients could self-analyse their external signs of skin cancer by uploading pictures of these signs to an artificial intelligence system, which runs such a deep learning model and returns the classification results. However, both patients and dermatologists, who might use such a system to aid their work, need to …
DNA Computing: Concepts for Medical Applications
2022
The branch of informatics that deals with construction and operation of computers built of DNA, is one of the research directions which investigates issues related to the use of DNA as hardware and software. This concept assumes the use of DNA computers due to their biological origin mainly for intelligent, personalized and targeted diagnostics frequently related to therapy. Important elements of this concept are (1) the retrieval of unique DNA sequences using machine learning methods and, based on the results of this process, (2) the construction/design of smart diagnostic biochip projects. The authors of this paper propose a new concept of designing diagnostic biochips, the key elements o…
Context-Aware Visual Exploration of Molecular Datab
2006
Facilitating the visual exploration of scientific data has received increasing attention in the past decade or so. Especially in life science related application areas the amount of available data has grown at a breath taking pace. In this paper we describe an approach that allows for visual inspection of large collections of molecular compounds. In contrast to classical visualizations of such spaces we incorporate a specific focus of analysis, for example the outcome of a biological experiment such as high throughout screening results. The presented method uses this experimental data to select molecular fragments of the underlying molecules that have interesting properties and uses the res…
Prediction of defects using machine learning techniques in order to improve quality management system – A case study
2021
According to ISO 9000, a quality management system is part of a set of related or interacting elements of an organization that sets policies and objectives, as well as the processes necessary to achieve the quality objectives. Quality is the extent to which a set of intrinsic characteristics of an object meets the requirements. Based on these definitions, the factory, considered in this paper, S.C. APULUM S.A.,decided to implement a quality management system since 1998. Subsequently, the organization’s attention is focus on the continuous improvement of the implemented quality management system. The purpose of this paper is to study the percent of specified defects specific to ceramic produ…
Automatic early detection of decay in citrus fruit using optical technologies and machine learning techniques
2015
Los cítricos representan el cultivo frutal de mayor valor en términos de comercio internacional, siendo España el primer exportador mundial de cítricos para consumo en fresco. Sin embargo, la presencia de podredumbres causadas por hongos del género Penicillium se encuentra entre los principales problemas que afectan la postcosecha y comercialización de cítricos. Un número reducido de frutas infectadas puede contaminar una partida completa de cítricos durante el almacenamiento de la fruta por largos períodos de tiempo o en el transporte al extranjero, lo que conlleva grandes pérdidas económicas y el desprestigio de los productores de cítricos. Por lo tanto, la detección temprana de infeccion…
An integrated fuzzy cells-classifier
2007
This paper introduces a genetic algorithm able to combine different classifiers based on different distance functions. The use of a genetic algorithm is motivated by the fact that the combination phase is based on the optimization of a vote strategy. The method has been applied to the classification of four types of biological cells, results show an improvement of the recognition rate using the genetic algorithm combination strategy compared with the recognition rate of each single classifier.
A genetic integrated fuzzy classifier
2005
This paper introduces a new classifier, that is based on fuzzy-integration schemes controlled by a genetic optimisation procedure. Two different types of integration are proposed here, and are validated by experiments on real data sets of biological cells. The performance of our classifier is tested against a feed-forward neural network and a Support Vector Machine. Results show the good performance and robustness of the integrated classifier strategies.
Fuzzy Classifier Based on Fuzzy Decision Tree
2007
A popular method for making a fuzzy decision tree for classification is Fuzzy ID3 algorithm. We introduce a new approach that uses cumulative information estimations of initial data. Based on these estimations we propose a new greedy version of fuzzy ID3 algorithm to be used to generate understandable fuzzy classification rules. The goal is to find a sequence of rules that causes near minimal classification costs.
Deep Learning for Classifying Physical Activities from Accelerometer Data
2021
Physical inactivity increases the risk of many adverse health conditions, including the world’s major non-communicable diseases, such as coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and breast and colon cancers, shortening life expectancy. There are minimal medical care and personal trainers’ methods to monitor a patient’s actual physical activity types. To improve activity monitoring, we propose an artificial-intelligence-based approach to classify the physical movement activity patterns. In more detail, we employ two deep learning (DL) methods, namely a deep feed-forward neural network (DNN) and a deep recurrent neural network (RNN) for this purpose. We evaluate the proposed models on two phy…

2002
The paper deals with the question, if and how the process of learning can be modelled, analysed and maybe improved by means of Neural Networks. The problem is that most of the developed types of ne...
