Abstract: This paper introduces an expert system to decision-making. The expert system is linguistic summarization combined with prioritized operators. In the practical decision-making problems, the information of attributes is linguistic type and needs to be converted into numerical type. The validity of the linguistic summarization is recorded as the attribute value. We discuss how to calculate the validity of the linguistic summarization, and present three prioritized operators. Then the three prioritized operators are used to aggregate the attribute values. Finally, a practical example is given. In addition, we conduct a comparative analysis between the expert system method and another multi-attribute decision-making …method by using a measure of specificity, and conclude that the expert system method is better.

Abstract: The automatic generation of natural language is a complex and essential task in text processing. This study proposes a novel approach to address this fundamental problem by leveraging an improved version of DST_BERT, a model that converts input text into a vector representation. Our key contribution lies in the joint optimization of two models, NLU (Natural Language Under-standing) and NLG (Natural Language Generation), which enables us to obtain variable representations within a hidden space. This integration enhances the capabilities of both NLU and NLG in generating coherent and contextually appropriate language. The NLU and NLG …models are seamlessly integrated with the hidden variable space, forming a generative representation model. To assess the effectiveness of our proposed approach, we conducted extensive experiments on the E2E and Weather datasets. The results highlight the state-of-the-art performance achieved by our model in generating natural language. Show more

Abstract: Molecular graph representation learning has been widely applied in various domains such as drug design. It leverages deep learning techniques to transform molecular graphs into numerical vectors. Graph Transformer architecture is commonly used for molecular graph representation learning. Nevertheless, existing methods based on the Graph Transformer fail to fully exploit the topological structural information of the molecular graphs, leading to information loss for molecular representation. To solve this problem, we propose a novel molecular graph representation learning method called MTS-Net (Molecular Topological Structure-Network), which combines both global and local topological structure of a molecule. In global topological representation, the molecule …graph is first transformed into a tree structure and then encoded by employing a hash algorithm for tree. In local topological representation, paths between atom pairs are transcoded and incorporated into the calculation of the Transformer attention coefficients. Moreover, MTS-Net has intuitive interpretability for identifying key structures within molecules. Experiments on eight molecular property prediction datasets show that MTS-Net achieves optimal results in three out of five classification tasks, the average accuracy is 0.85, and all three regression tasks.

Abstract: Medical image fusion plays a crucial role in accurate medical diagnostics by combining images from various modalities. To address this need, we propose an AI model for efficient medical image fusion using multiple modalities. Our approach utilizes a Siamese convolutional neural network to construct a weight map based on pixel movement information extracted from multimodality medical images. We leverage medical picture pyramids to incorporate multiscale techniques, enhancing reliability beyond human visual intuition. Additionally, we dynamically adjust the fusion mode based on local comparisons of deconstructed coefficients. Evaluation metrics including F1-score, recall, accuracy, and precision are computed to assess performance, yielding …impressive results: an F1-score of 0.8551 and a mutual information (MI) value of 2.8059. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our method, achieving a remarkable 99.61% accuracy in targeted experiments. Moreover, the Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) of our approach is 0.8551. Compared to state-of-the-art approaches, our model excels in medical picture classification, providing accurate diagnosis through high-quality fused images. This research advances medical image fusion techniques, offering a robust solution for precise medical diagnostics across various modalities. Show more

Abstract: The triangular γ-graphyne structure is highlighted in particular, as it is a new configuration with possible applications in medicine. We shed light on this structure’s special qualities and potential uses in healthcare by computing several topological indices linked to it through computational research. Furthermore, we use Shannon’s entropy measure to express the information content of the connection-based topological indices in tandem. This method offers a thorough comprehension of the intricate features and structural properties of the triangular γ-graphyne structure. A logarithmic regression model is built to establish a quantifiable relationship between the computed indices and entropy. The SPSS program was …used in the development of this model, allowing for a thorough examination of the relationship between structural features and informational entropy. A regression model based on triangular graphyne topological indices is used as a predictive tool for entropy estimation. Show more

Abstract: With the rapid economic development and increasingly serious environmental problems, many regions have launched green credit policies. Green credit can reduce the loan interest rate of the environmental protection industry and lower the financing threshold. Traditional risk prediction methods cannot comprehensively evaluate the green credit risk of the enterprise based on the degree of green environmental protection and the industry environment in which the enterprise is located, resulting in the inconsistency between the credit financial risk prediction and the actual results, which increases the bank credit risk. In order to strengthen the management level of green credit and reduce the …probability of non-performing loans, a scientific risk assessment method was constructed by using a combination of automatic encoding network and bidirectional long short-term memory neural network model to predict the financial risks of green credit, driven by multi-modal data. Through the study of multimodal data, this paper took green credit financial risk as the research object, aggregated the information of various enterprises to improve the bank’s capital utilization rate, and also promoted enterprises to take the initiative to transform into the direction of green environmental protection. Finally, the experiment proved that multimodal data fusion model was more superior than random forest in risk prediction, reducing the bank’s non-performing loan rate by 3.1% and improving the bank’s risk control level.

Abstract: Due to its remarkable performance, the convolutional neural network (CNN) has gained widespread usage in image inpainting challenges. However, most of these CNN-based methods reconstruct images only in the spatial domain, which produces satisfactory outcomes for small-region inpainting tasks, but blurs the details and generates incomplete structures for large-region inpainting tasks with complex backgrounds. In this paper, we address the issue of large-region inpainting tasks by our novel Adaptive Fourier Neural Network . Specifically, in our network, a Fourier-based global receptive field module is introduced to incorporate frequency information and expand the receptive field by transforming local convolutions into …global convolutions, enabling the proposed network to transmit global information to the missing region. Furthermore, to better fuse spatial and frequency features, an attention-based joint space-frequency module is proposed to combine spatial and frequency information. Finally, to validate the effectiveness and robustness of our proposed method, we conduct qualitative and quantitative experiments on two popular datasets Paris StreetView and Places. The experimental results demonstrate that our proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods by generating sharper, more coherent, and visually plausible inpainting results. Code will be released after this work published: https://github.com/langka9/AFNN.git . Show more

In this article, modified AlexNet deep leaning model is proposed to category the source retinal images into either healthy or Glaucoma through the detection and segmentations of optic disc (OD) and optic cup (OC) regions in retinal pictures. The retinal images are preprocessed and OD region is detected and segmented using circulatory filter. Further, OC regions are detected and segmented using K-means classification algorithm. Then, the segmented OD and OC region are classified and trained by the suggested AlexNet …deep leaning model. This model classifies the source retinal image into either healthy or Glaucoma. Finally, performance measures have been estimated in relation to ground truth pictures in regards to accuracy, specificity and sensitivity. These performance measures are contrasted with the other previous Glaucoma detection techniques on publicly accessible retinal image datasets HRF and RIGA. The suggested technique as described in this work achieves 91.6% GDR for mild case and also achieves 100% GDR for severe case on HRF dataset. The suggested method as described in this work achieves 97.7% GDR for mild case and also achieves 100% GDR for severe case on RIGA dataset.

Abstract: China has emerged as one of the nations with the worst air pollution in recent years. The severe air pollution has caused a large number of population migration and also caused serious economic problems. Since the concentration of air pollutants can change quickly in a short amount of time, the study first tracked PM2.5 , PM10 , NO2 , CO, SO2 , and O3 as targets before using the particle swarm optimization algorithm to improve the PIO algorithm, which is based on the traditional pigeon swarm algorithm. To estimate the concentration of air pollutants, combine the wavelet packet decomposition …technique, MDS visualization method, and k-means algorithm. Then, apply the enhanced PIO algorithm to optimize the ELM algorithm. Finally, a new type of decomposition-optimization-clustering-integration hybrid learning model, namely DOCIAPC model, is constructed. The experimental findings indicate that, when predicting the concentration of various air pollutants, the DOCIAPC model’s average direction prediction accuracy is 90.37% . In conclusion, the model suggested in the study has excellent performance and applicability, and it can accurately predict the concentration of air pollutants, help the government take action to reduce air pollution, balance the environment and economy, as well as the allocation of labor and its resources in the city.

Abstract: In this technology world, education is also becoming one of the basic necessities of human life like food, shelter, and clothes. Even in day-to-day daily activities, the world is moving toward an automated process using technology developments. Some of the technology developments in day-to-day life activities are smartphone, internet activities, and home and office appliances. To cope with these advanced technologies, the persons must have basic educational qualification to understand and operate those appliances easily. Apart from this, the education helps the person to develop their personal growth in both knowledge and wealth. With the development of technologies, different Artificial …Intelligence techniques have been applied on the datasets to analyze these factors and enhance the teaching method. But the current techniques were applied to one or two data models that analyze either their educational performance or demographic variable. But these models were not sufficient for analyzing all the factors that affects the education. To overcome this, a single optimized machine-learning approach is proposed in this paper to analyze the factors that affect the education. This analysis helps the faculty to enhance their teaching methodology and understand the student’s mentality toward education. The proposed Hybrid Cuckoo search-particle swarm optimization was implemented on three datasets to determine the factors that affect the education. These optimal factors are determined by identifying their relations to the final results of an individual person. All these optimal factors are combined and grades are grouped to analyze the proposed optimization process performance using regression neural network. The proposed optimization-based neural network was tested on three data models and its performance analysis showed that the proposed model can achieve higher accuracy of 99% that affects the individual education. This shows that the proposed model can help the faculty to enhance their attention to the students individually. Show more
