Abstract: Currently, word segmentation errors and polysemy problems are common in the field of Chinese relationship extraction. Although character-based model input can avoid word segmentation errors, in order to obtain the word information of a sentence, it is often necessary to introduce a dictionary or an external knowledge base to expand the word information, which requires a lot of manpower and time. In response to the above existing problems, this article uses characters as input, uses multiple embedding models to jointly form a character vector sequence, and obtains features containing character information through BiLSTM and attention layers; considering that convolutional neural …networks are good at extracting local features, obtain features containing word information through multi-kernel convolutional layers and multi-head self-attention layers, and finally use a gating mechanism to fuse the features. The model was tested on the public SanWen data set and our own cultural-travel data set, and obtained F1 values of 61.22% and 60.26% respectively. Experimental results show that our method can achieve better relationship extraction effects without using word segmentation tools and without building a dictionary or external knowledge base, and the effect is better than most commonly used models currently.

Abstract: Higher vocational mathematics education is advanced and related to real-time applications providing vast knowledge. Teaching and training peculiar mathematical problems improve their educational and career-focused performance. Therefore optimal performance assessment methods are required for reducing the lack of knowledge in mathematics learning. This article hence introduces an Articulated Performance Assessment Model (APAM) for consenting mathematics assessment. In this model, fuzzy optimization is used for consenting different factors such as understandability, problem-solving, and replication. The understandability is identified using similar problem progression by the students, whereas replication is the application of problem-solving skills for articulated mathematical models. From perspectives, problem-solving and …solution extraction is the theme that has to be met by the student. The assessments hence generate a perplexed outcome due to which the fuzzy optimization for high and low-level understandability is evaluated. The optimization recommends the change in varying steps in problem explanation and iterated replication for leveraging the students’ performance. This process swings between irrelevant and crisp inputs during fuzzification. In this process, the crisp inputs are the maximum replications produced by the students for better understanding. Therefore, the proposed model is evaluated using efficiency, maximum replication, fuzzification rate, and analytical time. Show more

Abstract:  The theory of interval-valued formal contexts was originally derived from fuzzy formal contexts. While the fuzzy formal context can extract information from fuzzy formal contexts more precisely, it lacks theoretical analysis of formal contexts with interval-valued data types. This paper incorporates the three-way concept into interval-valued formal contexts, and partitions the interval value range of objects and attributes into three regions utilizing the notion of three-way decisions. On the basis of interval-valued information granules, the concepts of negative operators and interval-valued three-way concepts are proposed. They can conduct profounder knowledge discovery in interval-valued formal contexts, and a generation algorithm of …interval-valued three-way concepts is devised. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm is substantiated through experimentation Show more

Abstract:  The text information processing technology of public health service is one of the hot research topics at present. To improve the defects of public health service texts, such as inaccurate word segmentation, spelling errors and professional vocabulary understanding, this study designed a character-level deep neural network model on the characteristics of public health service texts. In this model, the bidirectional short and short time memory and the attention pooling operation layer are introduced to make the model better classify the text according to the context. In addition, counter perturbation is introduced in this study to improve the robustness and generalization …ability of the model, thus improving its classification effect. The performance verification results show that the proposed model has better classification performance on the public health service text data set. The anti-disturbance samples generated by the model are all in the range of 0–0.2 when WMD deviation degree is measured, while most of the other methods are in the range of 0.4–0.6. The experimental object of this study is ultrasonic examination data. The experimental results show that the automatic analysis model of public health service text based on character level convolutional neural network constructed in this study has excellent accuracy and convergence speed, and has excellent performance in the classification of public health service text in different subject areas.

Abstract: In the theory of interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS), the rating/grade of an element is the subset of the closed interval [0, 1], therefore the IVIFS doctrine is more useful for the decision expert to present their judgments in terms of intervals rather than the crisp values. The present work develops an integrated decision-making methodology for evaluating sustainable wastewater treatment technologies within the context of IVIFS. The proposed decision-making framework is divided into three stages. First, some Yager weighted aggregation operators and their axioms are developed to combine the interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy information. These operators can offer us a flexible …way to solve the realistic multi-criteria decision-making problems under IVIFS context. Second, an extension of Symmetry Point of Criterion model is introduced to determine the criteria weights under IVIFS environment. Third, an integrated alternative ranking order model accounting for two-step normalization (AROMAN) approach is proposed from IVIF information perspective. Next, the practicability and efficacy of the developed model is proven by implementing it on a case study of sustainable wastewater treatment technologies evaluation problem with multiple criteria and decision experts. Finally, comparative analysis is discussed to illustrate the consistency and robustness of the obtained outcomes. Show more

It is essential to find eye cancer early in order to successfully treat it and enhance patient outcomes. The usage of DL methods for medical image analysis, particularly the identification of eye cancer, has fascinated increasing consideration in current era. The demand for efficient tool to detect the eye cancer emphasize the need for reliable detection systems. Examining how explainable …deep learning techniques, in which the model’s decision-making process can be understood and visualized, can increase confidence in and adoption of the deep learning-based approach for detecting eye cancer. Expert input is necessary to train machine learning algorithms properly. As it necessitates knowledge of ophthalmology, radiography, and pathology, this can be difficult for eye cancer identification. The main purpose of the study is to detect the eye cancer with at most accuracy with the utilization of Deep learning-based approach.

The Circle Hough Transform is applied to detect the edges in the image. The dataset size is increased by shifting, rotating and flipping augmentation techniques. Deep learning-based approach is suggested for the automatic detection of eye cancer. The two methods named 3XConPool and 10XCon5XPool were investigated using Python learning environment. The two techniques 3XConPool and 10XCon5XPool imply on the Sine Cosine Fitness Grey Wolf Optimization (SCFGWO) algorithm for the adjustment of the hyperparameters. The 3XConPool and 10XCon5XPool methods with SCFGWO are compared with each other and also with the other existing methods. RESULTS: As a comparison to the earlier techniques, the suggested configured Convolution Neural Network with SCFGWP exceeds with regard to high accuracy, recall and precision. The suggested 10XCon5XPool with SCFGWO obtains 98.01 as accuracy compared to other method 3XConPool which results 97.23% accuracy. CONCLUSION: The Proposed Method 1 and Proposed Method 2 is presented here, where Proposed Method 2 with 5 times convolution layer with pooling layer yields high accuracy compared to proposed method 1. The main contribution by the SCFGWO algorithm resulted in the achievement of accuracy. This study will open the door for further investigation and the creation of deep learning-based techniques with optimization for ophthalmic processing. Show more

Abstract: The central nervous system can develop complex and deadly neoplastic growths called brain tumors. Despite being relatively uncommon in comparison to other cancers, brain tumors pose particular challenges because of their delicate anatomical placement and interactions with critical brain regions. The data are taken from TCIA (The Cancer Image Archive) and Kaggle Datasets. Images are first pre-processed using amplified median filter techniques. The pre-processed images are then segmented using the Grabcut method. Feature extraction is extracted using the Shape, ABCD rule, and GLCM are the features were retrieved. The MRI images are then classified into several classes using the Bi-directional …Encoder Representations from Transformers-Bidirectional Long Short Term Memory (BERT-Bi-LSTM) model. Kaggle and TICA datasets are used to simulate the proposed approach, and the results are evaluated in terms of F1-score, recall, precision and accuracy. The proposed model shows improved brain tumour identification and classification. To evaluate the expected technique’s efficacy, a thorough comparison of the current techniques with preceding methods is made. The trial results showed that an efficient hybrid bert model for brain tumor classification suggested strategy provided precision of 98.65%, F1-score of 98.25%, recall of 99.25%, and accuracy of 99.75%.
