Abstract: Nature-inspired algorithms as problem-solving methodologies are extremely effective in discovery of optimized solutions in multi-dimensional and multi-modal problems. Because of qualities like “self-optimization”, “flexibility” and etc., nature-inspired algorithms for problem solving are effectively optimal. Feature selection is an approach to find approximate optimal subset of the features which are more relevant towards the particular outcome. In this study, we focused on how feature selection may improve the credit scoring model’s performance for prediction. Nature-inspired algorithms are applied for feature selection to improve the predictive performance of the credit scoring model. Additionally, four benchmark credit scoring datasets collected from the UCI …repository are used to test feature selection by several Nature-inspired algorithms aggregated with “Random Forest (RF)”, “Logistic Regression (LR),” and “Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP)” for classification and results are compared in terms of classification accuracy and G-measures.

Abstract: When data are hazy or uncertain, estimators given under classical statistics are ineffective. Given that it deals with uncertainty, neutrosophic statistics is the sole alternative. Due to the vast range of applications, extensive research has been done in this area. The objective of this study is to determine the most accurate predictions for the population mean with the least amount of mean square error. We have created neutrosophic ratio type estimators, when working with ambiguous, hazy, and neutrosophic-type data, the proposed estimation methods are very useful for computing results. These estimators produce findings that are not single-valued but rather have …an interval form, where our population parameter may lie more frequently. Since we have an estimated interval with the unknown population mean value given a minimal mean square error, it improves the estimators’ efficiency. Real life neutrosophic line losses data and simulation are both used to analyze the effectiveness of the proposed neutrosophic ratio-type estimators. Additionally, a comparison is made to show how helpful Neutrosophic ratio type estimator is in comparison to existing estimators. Show more

Abstract: The advancements in technology, particularly in the field of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be advantageous for the agricultural sector to enhance the yield. Establishing an agricultural ontology as part of the development would spur the expansion of cross-domain agriculture. Semantic and syntactic knowledge of the domain data is required for building such a domain-based ontology. To process the data from text documents, a standard technique with syntactic and semantic features are needed because the availability of pre-determined agricultural domain-based data is insufficient. In this research work, an Agricultural Ontologies Construction framework (AOC) is proposed for …creating the agricultural domain ontology from text documents using NLP techniques with Robustly Optimized BERT Approach (RoBERTa) model and Graph Convolutional Network (GCN). The anaphora present in the documents are resolved to produce precise ontology from the input data. In the proposed AOC work, the domain terms are extracted using the RoBERTa model with Regular Expressions (RE) and the relationships between the domain terms are retrieved by utilizing the GCN with RE. When compared to other current systems, the efficacy of the proposed AOC method achieves an exceptional result, with precision and recall of 99.6% and 99.1% respectively. Show more

Abstract: In order to improve the remanufacturing efficiency of scrap mechanical parts and comprehensively detect their surface fault status, this paper proposes a color three-dimensional reconstruction method of scrap mechanical parts based on an improved semi-global matching (SGM) algorithm. In experiments, this method demonstrated significant performance advantages in dealing with complex mechanical component structures and large illumination interference environments. Experimental results show that the three-dimensional color model reconstructed by this method has clear texture and small dimensional error, and is suitable for online analysis of surface fault information of scrap mechanical parts in actual production lines. Through quantitative analysis, compared with …the traditional SGM method, the method in this paper improves the structural similarity index (SSIM) by an average of 19.8% and reduces the mean square error (MSE) by an average of 33.1%.

Abstract: This paper focuses on solving the fully fuzzy transportation problem in which the parameters are triangular Type-2 fuzzy numbers due to the instinctive of human imprecision. To deal with uncertainty more precisely, a triangular Type-1 fuzzy transportation problem is reformed as a transportation problem with triangular Type-2 fuzzy parameters in this paper. In order to compare triangular Type-2 fuzzy numbers, a new ranking(ordering) technique is proposed by extending the Yager’s function. However, two efficient algorithmic approaches namely, triangular Type-2 fuzzy zero suffix method (TT2FZSM) and triangular Type-2 fuzzy zero average method (TT2FZAM) are proposed to generate the initial transportation cost …of the fully triangular Type-2 fuzzy transportation problem. Both TT2FZSM and TT2FZAM are converging towards an optimal solution. In addition to TT2FZSM and TT2FZAM, the modified distribution method is applied to ensure optimality. Subsequently, we carry out a comprehensive discussion of the obtained results to establish the validation of the proposed approach. Show more

Abstract: Assessing fetal growth and development requires accurate identification of the fetal area contour and measurement of the Crown-Rump Length (CRL). In this paper, we presented a unique method for autonomously segmenting the fetal region in ultrasound images and calculating the CRL based on the U-Net architecture. Because of its capacity to capture both global and local information, the U-Net model is a popular choice for image segmentation tasks. Our method employs the U-Net model to extract the fetal region contour and measure the CRL, resulting in a dependable and efficient prenatal evaluation solution.
