An emerging theme for explanation techniques research is their application to the improvement of human-system interfaces for autonomous anti-drone or C-UAV defense systems. In the present paper a novel proposal based on natural language processing technology concerning explanatory discourse using relations is briefly described. The proposal is based on the use of relations pertaining to the possible malicious actions of an intruding alien drone swarm and the defense decisions proposed by an autonomous anti-drone system. The aim of such an interface is to facilitate the supervision that a user must exercise on an autonomous defense system in order to minimize the risk of wrong mitigation actions and unnecessary spending of ammunition.","PeriodicalId":93188,"journal":{"name":"International journal of artificial intelligence & applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45540219","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}

{"title":"Predictive Model for Maize Stem Borers’ Classification in Precision Farming","authors":"Ezeofor J. Chukwunazo, Akpado Kenneth, Ulasi Afamefuna","doi":"10.5121/ijaia.2021.12403","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5121/ijaia.2021.12403","url":null,"abstract":"This paper presents Predictive Model for Stem Borers’ classification in Precision Farming. The recent announcement of the aggressive attack of stem borers (Spodoptera species) to maize crops in Africa is alarming. These species migrate in large numbers and feed on maize leaf, stem, and ear of corn. The male of these species are the target because after mating with their female counterpart, thousands of eggs are laid which produces larvae that create the havoc. Currently, Nigerian farmers find it difficult to distinguish between these targeted species (Fall Armyworm-FAW, African Armyworm-AAW and Egyptian cotton leaf worm-ECLW only) because they look alike in appearance. For these reasons, the network model that would predict the presence of these species in the maize farm to farmers is proposed. The maize species were captured using delta pheromone traps and laboratory breeding for each category. The captured images were pre-processed and stored in an online Google drive image dataset folder created. The convolutional neural network (CNN) model for classifying these targeted maize moths was designed from the scratch. The Google Colab platform with Python libraries was used to train the model called MothNet. The images of the FAW, AAW, and ECLW were inputted to the designed MothNet model during learning process. Dropout and data augmentation were added to the architecture of the model for an efficient prediction. After training the MothNet model, the validation accuracy achieved was 90.37% with validation loss of 24.72%, and training accuracy 90.8% with loss of 23.25%, and the training occurred within 5minutes 33seconds. Due to the small amount of images gathered (1674), the model prediction on each image was of low confident. Because of this, transfer learning was deployed and Resnet 50 pretrained model selected and modified. The modified ResNet-50 model was fine-tuned and tested. The model validation accuracy achieved was 99.21%, loss of 3.79%, and training accuracy of 99.75% with loss of 2.55% within 10mins 5 seconds. Hence, MothNet model can be improved on by gathering more images and retraining the system for optimum performance while modified ResNet 50 is recommended to be integrated in Internet of Things device for maize moths’ classification on-site.","PeriodicalId":93188,"journal":{"name":"International journal of artificial intelligence & applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47690916","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}

Business Intelligence (BI) allows to better manage the various activities as for companies working in the insurance sector. Business Intelligence based on the Decision Support System (DSS), makes it possible to improve the efficiency of decisions and processes, by improving them to the individual characteristics of the agents. In this direction, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are valid tools that help insurance companies to understand the current market and to anticipate future trends. The purpose of the present paper is to discuss a case study, which was developed within the research project \"DSS / BI HUMAN RESOURCES\", related to the implementation of an intelligent platform for the automated management of agents' activities. The platform includes BI, DSS, and KPIs. Specifically, the platform integrates Data Mining (DM) algorithms for agent scoring, K-means algorithms for customer clustering, and a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) artificial neural network for the prediction of agents KPIs. The LSTM model is validated by the Artificial Records (AR) approach, which allows to feed the training dataset in data-poor situations as in many practical cases using Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms. Using the LSTM-AR method, an analysis of the performance of the artificial neural network is carried out by changing the number of records in the dataset. More precisely, as the number of records increases, the accuracy increases up to a value equal to 0.9987.","PeriodicalId":93188,"journal":{"name":"International journal of artificial intelligence & applications","volume":"12 1","pages":"01-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49098210","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}

Most of the existing research efforts focus on the identification of a meso scale structure called community structure. Core periphery structures are another equally important meso scale property in a graph that can help to gain deeper insights about the relationships between different nodes. In this paper, we provide a definition of core periphery structures suitable for weighted graphs. We further score and categorize these relationships into different types based upon the density difference between the core and periphery nodes. Next, we propose an algorithm called CP-MKNN (Core Periphery-Mutual K Nearest Neighbors) to extract core periphery structures from weighted graphs using a heuristic node affinity measure called Mutual K-nearest neighbors (MKNN). Using synthetic and real-world social and biological networks, we illustrate the effectiveness of developed core periphery structures.","PeriodicalId":93188,"journal":{"name":"International journal of artificial intelligence & applications","volume":"12 1","pages":"1-18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41345462","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}
