One of the classification algorithms is k-nearest neighbor (kNN) which computes distance amongst various rows in a dataset. The performance of kNN is evaluated based on K-value and distance metric used, where K is the total count of neighboring elements. Many different distance metrics have been used by researchers in literature, one of them is Canberra distance metric. In this paper the performance of kNN based on Canberra distance metric is measured on different datasets, further the proposed Canberra distance metric, namely, Modified Euclidean-Canberra Blend Distance (MECBD) metric has been applied to the kNN algorithm which led to improvement of class prediction efficiency on the same datasets measured in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score for different values of k. Further, this study depicts that MECBD metric use led to improvement in accuracy value 80.4% to 90.3%, 80.6% to 85.4% and 70.0% to 77.0% for various data sets used. Also, implementation of ROC curves and auc for k= 5 is done to show the improvement is kNN model prediction which showed increase in auc values for different data sets, for instance increase in auc values from 0.873 to 0.958 for Spine (2 Classes) dataset, 0.857 to 0.940, 0.983 to 0.983 (no change), 0.910 to 0.957 for DH, SL and NO class for Spine (3 Classes) data set and 0.651 to 0.742 for Haberman’s data set.","PeriodicalId":43932,"journal":{"name":"Intelligent Decision Technologies-Netherlands","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135140458","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}

The current emotional analysis employs interest points as landmarks in facial images affected by a few emotions Many researchers have proposed 7 different types of emotions (amusement, anger, disgust, fear, and sadness). In our work, we propose a deep learning-based multi-level graded facial emotions of 21 different types with our proposed facial emotional feature extraction technique called as Deep Facial Action Extraction Units (DFAEU). Then using our Multi-Class Artificial Neural Network (MCANN) architecture the model is trained to classify different emotions. The proposed method makes use of VGG-16 for the analysis of emotion grades. The performance of our model is evaluated using two algorithms Sparse Batch Normalization CNN (SBN-CNN) and CNN with Attention mechanism (ACNN) along with datasets Facial Emotion Recognition Challenge (FERC-2013). Our model outperforms 86.34 percent and 98.6 percent precision.","PeriodicalId":43932,"journal":{"name":"Intelligent Decision Technologies-Netherlands","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136215667","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}

Engineering and management systems have relied on knowledge generated from several related areas including Decision Support Systems, Artificial Intelligence and Operations Research. Most recently, in the last decade, a business management perspective realized through Knowledge Management (KM) approach has been incorporated to this research stream driven by a knowledge-based services economy [9,11]. Thus, a new type of IT system called Knowledge Management System (KMS) [2] has emerged to leverage “professional and managerial activities by focusing on creating, gathering, organizing, and disseminating an organization’s “knowledge” as opposed to “information” or “data” (idem, p. 1). While KMS are engineered and managed by using multiple IT, we consider relevant the development of KMS based on intelligent decision technologies and the enhancement of the decision-making process [6]. Through following the seminal directions [7,8] established by the eminent AI scientists Herbert A. Simon (1916–2001) and Alan Newell (1927–1992), and the system’s emergent property established by the Theory of Systems [1,4], we support also the notion of a “distinct computer systems level, lying immediately above the symbol level, which is characterized by knowledge as the medium and the principle of rationality as the law of behavior” (Newell, p. 7) as a core conceptualization for the realization of such KMS. We believe that the five invited and peer-reviewed research papers in this special issue in “Engineering and Management of IDTs for Knowledge Management Systems”, advance our scientific knowledge on the state of the art of intelligent knowledge management systems in a context of decision-making process. One research paper reports an improved algorithm for an automatic joint of knowledge stored via ontologies. Three another research papers analyze deeply the KMS support challenges and the KMS emergent simulation-based design architectures and paradigms. Finally, a fifth paper, reviews the state of the art of KMS focused on the particular problem of improving the utilization of standards and models of process in the context of software and systems engineering. In first paper, titled “Automatic Fusion of knowledge stored in Ontologies”, Dr. Alma-Delia Cueva and Professor Adolfo Guzmán-Arenas (Computer Research Center, Instituto Politecnico Nacional, México), investigate the knowledge fusion problem which is a seamless process in human beings. However, for an automated system, authors report that algorithms of ontologies fusion lack of critical features such as the processing of synonyms, homonyms, redundancies, apparent contradictions, and inconsistencies.
