Cancer has been found as a heterogeneous disease with various subtypes and aims to destroy the body’s normal cells abruptly. As a result, it is essential to detect and prognosis the distinct type of cancer since they may help cancer survivors with treatment in the early stage. It must also divide cancer patients into high- and low-risk groups. While realizing efficient detection of cancer is frequently a time-taking and exhausting task with the high possibility of pathologist errors and previous studies employed data mining and machine learning (ML) techniques to identify cancer, these strategies rely on handcrafted feature extraction techniques that result in incorrect classification. On the contrary, deep learning (DL) is robust in feature extraction and has recently been widely used for classification and detection purposes. This research implemented a novel hybrid AlexNet-gated recurrent unit (AlexNet-GRU) model for the lymph node (LN) breast cancer detection and classification. We have used a well-known Kaggle (PCam) data set to classify LN cancer samples. This study is tested and compared among three models: convolutional neural network GRU (CNN-GRU), CNN long short-term memory (CNN-LSTM), and the proposed AlexNet-GRU. The experimental results indicated that the performance metrics accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and specificity (99.50%, 98.10%, 98.90%, and 97.50) of the proposed model can reduce the pathologist errors that occur during the diagnosis process of incorrect classification and significantly better performance than CNN-GRU and CNN-LSTM models. The proposed model is compared with other recent ML/DL algorithms to analyze the model’s efficiency, which reveals that the proposed AlexNet-GRU model is computationally efficient. Also, the proposed model presents its superiority over state-of-the-art methods for LN breast cancer detection and classification.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is an emerging paradigm that is transforming real-world things (objects) into smarter devices. IoT is applicable to a variety of application domains including healthcare, smart grid, and agriculture. This domain has started revolutionizing the agriculture industry by providing smart solutions for precision farming, greenhouse management, and livestock monitoring. This article aims to present a comprehensive survey on the role of IoT in the Livestock field by categorizing and synthesizing existing research work in this area. To this end, a detailed discussion has been provided on IoT network infrastructure, topologies and platforms employed for livestock management. In addition, a list of communication protocols and connections of IoT-based livestock systems with relevant technologies have also been explored. Furthermore, numerous IoT-based livestock monitoring, controlling, and tracking applications have been discussed. Apart from this, it also analyses distinct security issues in IoT-based livestock field and developed a collaborative security model to detect and minimize the security risk. Lastly, pertinent open research challenges in the domain of IoT-based livestock management have been presented with future research directions.
In this paper we have presented results for classification of electroencephalograph (EEG) signals produced by the random visual exposure of primary colours i.e. red, green and blue to the subject while sitting in a dark room. Event-related spectral perturbations (ERSP) are used as features for support vector machine (SVM). Our objective was to classify the EEG signals as Red, Green and Blue classes and we have successfully classified the three visual conditions having accuracy of 84%, 89% and 98% with linear, polynomial and radial basis function kernels respectively with in all the groups of data among all the subjects.
This review article provides a deep insight into the Brain–Computer Interface (BCI) and the application of Machine Learning (ML) technology in BCIs. It investigates the various types of research undertaken in this realm and discusses the role played by ML in performing different BCI tasks. It also reviews the ML methods used for mental state detection, mental task categorization, emotion classification, electroencephalogram (EEG) signal classification, event-related potential (ERP) signal classification, motor imagery categorization, and limb movement classification. This work explores the various methods employed in BCI mechanisms for feature extraction, selection, and classification and provides a comparative study of reviewed methods. This paper assists the readers to gain information regarding the developments made in BCI and ML domains and future improvements needed for improving and designing better BCI applications.
