Because it is difficult to gain new clients, the major focus of customer relationship management is on existing clients. Customer Churn is defined as when customers switch to another provider due to their low prices and better offers. There are many research papers that found solutions to solve the customer churn problem with the help of the techniques of machine learning. In this research paper, we have suggested a framework that introduces a solution to the problem of customer churn in the banking industry. We used the techniques of deep learning namely the artificial neural network to analyze bank customer data and predict the customer churn. The experiment was conducted on a dataset called churn modeling and the results reveal that we were able to attain an accuracy of 87 % for bank customer data by using the ANN algorithm. The proposed framework presented a cost-effective option for maintaining bank customers, which increases bank profits by retaining customers.","PeriodicalId":122550,"journal":{"name":"2022 5th International Conference on Computing and Informatics (ICCI)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125374287","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Predicting the pandemic's course is critical to combating and tracking its spread. The objective of our study is to evaluate, optimize and fine-tune state of the art prediction models in order to enhance its performance and to automate its function as possible. Therefore, a comparison between statistical versus compartmental methods for time series-based modeling and forecasting of infectious disease progression was conducted. The comparison included several classical univariate time series statistical models, including Exponential Smoothing, Holt, Holt-Winters, and Seasonal Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA), as opposed to an optimized version of the compartmental multivariate epidemiological model SEIRD, which is referred to in our study, as, Non-Linear L-BFGS-B Fitted SEIRD. The mentioned methods were implemented and fine-tuned to model and forecast COVID-19 outbreak situation represented by confirmed cases, recoveries, and fatalities in (Australia, Canada, Egypt, India, United States of America and United Kingdom). Through the implementing and tuning of both types of models, we have observed that while univariate time series forecasting models such as SARIMA produce highly accurate predictions due to their ease of use and procedure, as well as their ability to deal with seasonality and cycles in time series, multivariate epidemiological models are more powerful and extendible. Despite their complexity, epidemiological models have aided extensively in understanding the spread and severity of infectious disease pandemics such as the COVID-19 global pandemic. Using our optimized SEIRD, we have obtained a Mean Squared Log Error of 10−3 order, demonstrating the forecasts' elevated accuracy and reliability. In addition to forecasting the course of the pandemic for a 3 months season in all countries under investigation, we were able to estimate the transmission potential of COVID-19 represented by its effective reproduction number Rt. With $mathrm{R}_{mathrm{t}}=1$ is considered as the pandemic control threshold, it is evident that all of the countries under investigation are hovering just above the control threshold. This study might be relieving since it can demonstrate that the world is on the right track in terms of putting an end to the pandemic as soon as possible. The whole study shows how powerful is compartmental methods compared to classical statistical methods when used to model and forecast an infectious disease outbreak which encourages our further related research concerning the study of implementing advanced compartmental models considering additional parameters and controls.","PeriodicalId":122550,"journal":{"name":"2022 5th International Conference on Computing and Informatics (ICCI)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129801716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the use of machine learning, our paper aims to propose and evaluate an LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) model that can forecast daily COVID-19 cases in Indonesia. Several tests show that 50 epochs and a batch size of eight are the best parameters to use for our model. Furthermore, after comparison with differing amounts of lookbacks, we have decided that 10 is best for our model as it consistently does better than other numbers of lookbacks.

We present a unique deep learning-based approach for extracting high-level and compact features from medical images in this paper. To capture the discriminative features of medical images, we use Residual Networks (ResNets), a popular multi-layered deep neural network. The query is then broadened by reformulating the query image using the mean values for deep features from each database class's top-ranking images.

Previous research had introduced a botnet activity detection model, such as using activity time analysis through a sliding time-based traffic segmentation process. However, the introduced model has not analyzed the ideal time in the sliding process in the segmentation process. The sliding process is needed to detect the botnet attack activity chain correctly. This paper analyzed the ideal time in the sliding process in traffic data segmentation to detect botnet activity and obtain information about botnet attacks. It aimed to get the optimal time in the sliding process and see its effect on detection accuracy. The test was carried out using a public dataset, namely the CTU-13 dataset, based on the two detection models in previous research.

As a result, as business requirements expand, the demand on the testing team to deliver a high-quality product in a short amount of time grows. Software testing guarantees that customers receive high-quality software. Manual testing becomes difficult since it is time-consuming. Besides, its cost rises as test suite sizes grow. In addition, human mistakes can slip into a system, resulting in losses for the company. Therefore, automation testing is best suited in situations when requirements change frequently, and a large volume of regression testing is required. Automation testing enhances accuracy while also saving the tester's time and the organization's money. The aim of this work is to propose an improved parallel automation testing architecture to significantly decrease testing time. The main problem with parallel testing is the existence of idle nodes that causes an increase in execution time. The proposed architecture solved this problem by running test cases in parallel using Selenium, Docker containers and implementing a dispatcher to ease and faster the process of distributing test cases between the network's nodes. As a result, the proposed architecture decreases testing process time, and no idle nodes exists anymore.","PeriodicalId":122550,"journal":{"name":"2022 5th International Conference on Computing and Informatics (ICCI)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132000150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In our research, data collected from zones with concentrated Corona cases: China, Europe and the United States were analyzed to understand the relation with climate as well as data at the global level to understand the relation with health prevention measures. Feature importance analysis revealed that temperature is the most important contributing attribute to the Corona cases' prediction models, followed by relative humidity. As well, the percentage of mask use and percentage of fully vaccinated individuals were found to have a great influence on the number of new Corona daily cases. The designed machine learning ensemble techniques had a maximum predication accuracy of 89.08%, and the produced possible interpretations for the designed models agreed with the performed feature importance analyses. We believe that the analysis approach followed in this research as well as the achieved findings could be very useful to other researchers who are interested in conducting more research investigation in the same research area on the new Corona variants.
