They are used to bind particular target molecules. Aptamers play vital roles in various practical applications and physiological functions. Consequently, several diseases can be treated using therapies based on aptamer proteins and designing the binding of aptamers to specific proteins is essential to advance understanding into processes of interaction between aptamer-protein. Despite the wide applications of aptamers, identification of interaction between aptamer protein is always inadequate and challenging. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a computational approach for achieving good predictions of interaction between aptamer-protein. In the present study, a novel method for enhancing the prediction of interacting aptamer-target pairs based on sequence features obtained from both aptamers and their target proteins by employing a novel k-mean based intuitionistic fuzzy rough feature selection method is proposed. Firstly, an intuitionistic fuzzy rough set model based on k nearest neighbour concept is proposed. Then, a novel feature selection technique is introduced by using this model. Furthermore, non-redundant and relevant features are selected from training as well as testing datasets by using proposed feature selection technique. Secondly, SMOTE (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique) is applied to obtain the optimal balanced training and testing datasets. Thirdly, we apply various machine learning algorithms on optimally balanced reduced training and testing datasets to evaluate their performances. Experimental results shows that the best prediction performance is obtained by boosted random forest learning algorithm. Using a 10 fold cross-validation test, the proposed method is a good performer, with sensitivity of 91.3, 86.4, specificity of 91.9, 84.8, overall accuracy of 91.60%, 85.60%, Mathews correlation coefficient of 0.832, 0.713, AUC (area under curve) of 0.969, 0.908, and g-means of 91.5, 85.5 on optimal balanced reduced training and testing datasets consisting of aptamer-protein interacting pairs.

An aggressive online environment can lead to negative attitudes that negatively impact the victim, bystanders, and the bullies themselves. One of the main reasons for the increase in this type of behavior is contagion from bystanders—a phenomenon that needs to be stopped. In recent years, many studies have looked at cyberbullying detection, considering various factors to improve detection, such as extracting different types of features, comparing the performance of different classifiers, and processing datasets in myriad ways. It is evident from our findings that previous works in the literature fell short of detecting cyberbullying by ignoring the characteristics of bystanders and their roles. Thus, this paper aims to present a systematic literature review of research conducted over the past 10 years to determine which methods encompassed features related to bystanders and their role and analyzed the contagion and causal factors of the spread of cyberbullying. There are different studies confirmed the existence of bystander contagion, which researchers rarely consider to detect cyberbullying. This gap could be exploited in future studies and used to improve the detection of cyberbullying. Therefore, in this paper, the summary and comparison of findings from the selected studies that examined the role of bystanders in cyberbullying are presented, concluding how bystander-related features could contribute to the detection of cyberbullying.</p>","PeriodicalId":14959,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141741484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The term “Deep fake” originates from deep learning technology, which effortlessly and seamlessly steers someone toward digital media. Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are a crucial component of deep fakes. The generative powers of generative capabilities greatly reinforce the advancements in language modeling for content generation. Due to low-cost computing infrastructure, sophisticated tools, and readily available content on social media, deep fakes propagate misinformation and hoaxes. These technologies make it simple to produce misinformation that spreads fear and confusion to everyone. As such, distinguishing between authentic and fraudulent content can be challenging. This study presents a novel automated approach for the identification of deep fakes, based on Adaptive Gaining Sharing Knowledge (AGSK) and using DenseNet121 architecture. During pre-processing, the image’s sensitive data variance or noise is eliminated. Following that, CapsuleNet is used to extract the feature vectors. The deep fake is identified from the resulting feature vectors by an AGSK with DenseNet121 architecture, together with the hyper-parameter that has been optimized using the AGSK model. Propaganda and defamation pose less of a concern, and the results of the suggested deepfake image recognition model show how reliable and successful the model is.

Uncertain differential equation has become the main tool to deal with dynamic uncertain systems. One of the key issues within the research of uncertain differential equations is the estimation of parameters involved based on the observed data. However, it is relatively difficult to solve this issue when the structures of the corresponding terms in the equations are not known in advance. To address this problem, one nonparametric estimation technique called weighted threshold moment estimation for homogeneous uncertain differential equations is proposed in this paper when no prior information about the terms is obtained.

In this study, we propose three Seq2Seq-based architectures specifically tailored for Urdu image caption generation.

This correlation can potentially aid in the early detection of mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety. Current research focuses on embedding pressure sensors in bedsheets, attaching accelerometers on a subject’s chest, and installing cameras in bedrooms for sleep posture monitoring. However, such solutions sacrifice either the user's sleep comfort or privacy. This study explores the effectiveness of using contactless ultra-wideband (UWB) sensors for sleep posture monitoring. We employed a UWB dataset that is composed of the measurements from 12 volunteers during sleep. A stacking ensemble learning method is introduced for the monitoring of sleep postural transitions, which constitute two levels of learning. At the base-learner level, six transfer learning models (VGG16, ResNet50V2, MobileNet50V2, DenseNet121, VGG19, and ResNet101V2) are trained on the training dataset for initial predictions. Then, the logistic regression is employed as a meta-learner which is trained on the predictions gained from the base-learner to obtain final sleep postural transitions. In addition, a sleep posture monitoring algorithm is presented that can give accurate statistics of total sleep postural transitions. Extensive experiments are conducted, achieving the highest accuracy rate of 86.7% for the classification of sleep postural transitions. Moreover, time-series data augmentation is employed, which improves the accuracy by 13%.

So, we need a clinical screening analysis to diagnose cervical cancer early and support the doctor to heal and evade cervical cancer?s spread in women?s other organs and save several lives.

Genetic algorithm and mutual information approaches utilize feature selection methodology in this suggested research and form a hybrid feature selection (HFS) method to generate the most significant features from the input dataset. This paper also utilizes a novel Bayesian optimization-based hyperparameter optimization approach: optimized CatBoost (OCB) method to provide the most optimal hyperparameters for the CatBoost algorithm. The CatBoost algorithm is used to classify cervical cancer risk. There are two real-world, publicly available cervical cancer-based datasets utilized in this suggested research to evaluate and verify the suggested approach?s performance. A 20-fold cross-validation strategy and a renowned performance evaluation metric are utilized to assess the suggested approach?s performance. The outcome implies that the possibility of forming cervical cancer can be efficiently foretold using the suggested HFS-OCB method.
