Liver disease indicates any pathology that can harm or destroy the liver or prevent it from normal functioning. The global community has recently witnessed an increase in the mortality rate due to liver disease. This could be attributed to many factors, among which are human habits, awareness issues, poor healthcare, and late detection. To curb the growing threats from liver disease, early detection is critical to help reduce the risks and improve treatment outcome. Emerging technologies such as machine learning, as shown in this study, could be deployed to assist in enhancing its prediction and treatment.

To present a more efficient system for timely prediction of liver disease using a hybrid eXtreme Gradient Boosting model with hyperparameter tuning with a view to assist in early detection, diagnosis, and reduction of risks and mortality associated with the disease.

The dataset used in this study consisted of 416 people with liver problems and 167 with no such history. The data were collected from the state of Andhra Pradesh, India, through https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/uciml/indian-liver-patient-records. The population was divided into two sets depending on the disease state of the patient. This binary information was recorded in the attribute "is_patient".

The results indicated that the chi-square automated interaction detection and classification and regression trees models achieved an accuracy level of 71.36% and 73.24%, respectively, which was much better than the conventional method. The proposed solution would assist patients and physicians in tackling the problem of liver disease and ensuring that cases are detected early to prevent it from developing into cirrhosis (scarring) and to enhance the survival of patients. The study showed the potential of machine learning in health care, especially as it concerns disease prediction and monitoring.

This study contributed to the knowledge of machine learning application to health and to the efforts toward combating the problem of liver disease. However, relevant authorities have to invest more into machine learning research and other health technologies to maximize their potential.

Sentiment analysis is a method to identify people's attitudes, sentiments, and emotions towards a given goal, such as people, activities, organizations, services, subjects, and products. Emotion detection is a subset of sentiment analysis as it predicts the unique emotion rather than just stating positive, negative, or neutral. In recent times, many researchers have already worked on speech and facial expressions for emotion recognition. However, emotion detection in text is a tedious task as cues are missing, unlike in speech, such as tonal stress, facial expression, pitch, etc. To identify emotions from text, several methods have been proposed in the past using natural language processing (NLP) techniques: the keyword approach, the lexicon-based approach, and the machine learning approach. However, there were some limitations with keyword- and lexicon-based approaches as they focus on semantic relations. In this article, we have proposed a hybrid (machine learning + deep learning) model to identify emotions in text. Convolutional neural network (CNN) and Bi-GRU were exploited as deep learning techniques. Support vector machine is used as a machine learning approach. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated using a combination of three different types of datasets, namely, sentences, tweets, and dialogs, and it attains an accuracy of 80.11%.

There is a wide variety of effects of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disease that can lead to cognitive decline, deterioration of daily life, and behavioral and psychological changes. A polymorphism of the ApoE gene ε 4 is considered a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that single-nucleotide polymorphic markers (SNPs) have a causal relationship with quantitative PET imaging traits. Additionally, the classification of AD is based on the frequency of brain tissue variations in PET images using a combination of k-nearest-neighbor (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), linear discrimination analysis (LDA), and convolutional neural network (CNN) techniques. According to the results, the suggested SNPs appear to be associated with quantitative traits more strongly than the SNPs in the ApoE genes. Regarding the classification result, the highest accuracy is obtained by the CNN with 91.1%. These results indicate that the KNN and CNN methods are beneficial in diagnosing AD. Nevertheless, the LDA and SVM are demonstrated with a lower level of accuracy.

In the contemporary era of unprecedented innovations such as the Internet of Things (IoT), modern applications cannot be imagined without the presence of a wireless sensor network (WSN). Nodes in WSN use neighbor discovery (ND) protocols to have necessary communication among the nodes. The neighbor discovery process is crucial as it is to be done with energy efficiency and minimize discovery latency and maximum percentage of neighbors discovered. The current ND approaches that are indirect in nature are categorized into methods of removal of active slots from wake-up schedules and intelligent addition of new slots. This work develops a lightweight intrusion detection system (IDS) based on two machine learning approaches, namely, feature selection and feature classification, in order to improve the security of the Internet of Things (IoT) while transferring medical data through a cloud platform. In order to take advantage of the comparatively cheap processing cost of the filter-based technique, the feature selection was carried out. The two methods are found to have certain drawbacks. The first category disturbs the original integrity of wake-up schedules leading to reduced chances of discovering new nodes in WSN as neighbors. When the second category is followed, it may have inefficient slots in the wake-up schedules leading to performance degradation. Therefore, the motivation behind the work in this paper is that by combining the two categories, it is possible to reap the benefits of both and get rid of the limitations of both. Making a hybrid is achieved by introducing virtual nodes that help maximize performance by ensuring the original integrity of wake-up schedules and adding efficient active slots. Thus, a Hybrid Approach to Neighbor Discovery (HAND) protocol is realized in WSN. The simulation study revealed that HAND outperforms the existing indirect ND models.

Cloud technology is a business strategy that aims to provide the necessary material to customers depending on their needs. Individuals and cloud businesses alike have embraced the cloud storage service, which has become the most widely used service. The industries outsource their data to cloud storage space to relieve themselves of the load of dealing with redundant data contents. This must be protected to prevent the theft of personal belongings, and privacy must be improved as well. Different research projects have been suggested to ensure the safe management of the information included within the data content. The security of current research projects, on the contrary, still needs improvement. As a result, this method has been suggested to address the security concerns associated with cloud computing. The primary goal of this study effort is to offer a safe environment for cloud users while also increasing the profit of cloud resource providers by managing and securely delivering data contents to the cloud users. The bulk of sectors, including business, finance, military, and healthcare industry, do not store data in cloud-based storage systems. This technique is used to attract these kinds of customers. Increasing public acceptance, medical researchers are drawn to cloud computing because it allows them to store their study material in a centralized location and distribute and access it in a more flexible manner. They were collected from numerous individuals who were being evaluated for medical care at the time. Scalable and enhanced key aggregate cryptosystem is a protected data protection method that provides highly effective security in the healthcare industry. When parties interested in a dispute disagree on the outflow of sensitive information, this technique manages the disputes and ensures the data security deployment of a cloud-based intelligent health monitoring system for the parties involved. The encrypted data structure of medical and healthcare prescriptions is recorded as they move through the hands of patients and healthcare facilities, according to the technique recommended. The double encryption approach is used in order to raise the overall degree of security. An encryption class is created by referring to the Ciphertext ID during the encryption procedure. The keyholder is a master secret key that facilitates in the recovery of the secret keys of various monsters and creatures by acting as a conduit between them. It is transferred and stored as a single aggregate for the benefit of the patient or customer in order to make decryption more convenient and efficient. A safe connection between cloud-based intelligent health monitoring systems and healthcare organizations and their patients may be established via the use of a key aggregation cryptosystem and a double encryption approach, according to the researchers. Because of this, when compared to earlier techniques, the findings reveal that the research methodology provides high levels of security in terms of confidentiality and integrity, in addition to excellent scalability.

The discipline of computer vision is becoming more popular as a research subject. In a surveillance-based computer vision application, item identification and tracking are the core procedures. They consist of segmenting and tracking an object of interest from a sequence of video frames, and they are both performed using computer vision algorithms. In situations when the camera is fixed and the backdrop remains constant, it is possible to detect items in the background using more straightforward methods. Aerial surveillance, on the other hand, is characterized by the fact that the target, as well as the background and video camera, are all constantly moving. It is feasible to recognize targets in the video data captured by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) using the mean shift tracking technique in combination with a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN). It is critical that the target detection algorithm maintains its accuracy even in the presence of changing lighting conditions, dynamic clutter, and changes in the scene environment. Even though there are several approaches for identifying moving objects in the video, background reduction is the one that is most often used. An adaptive background model is used to create a mean shift tracking technique, which is shown and implemented in this work. In this situation, the background model is provided and updated frame-by-frame, and therefore, the problem of occlusion is fully eliminated from the equation. The target tracking algorithm is fed the same video stream that was used for the target identification algorithm to work with. In MATLAB, the works are simulated, and their performance is evaluated using image-based and video-based metrics to establish how well they operate in the real world.

Background: The unprecedented development of Artificial Intelligence has revolutionised the healthcare industry. In the next generation of healthcare systems, self-diagnosis will be pivotal to personalised healthcare services. During the COVID-19 pandemic, new screening and diagnostic approaches like mobile health are well-positioned to reduce disease spread and overcome geographical barriers. This paper presents a non-invasive screening approach to predict the health of a person from visually observable features using machine learning techniques. Images like face and skin surface of the patients are acquired using camera or mobile devices and analysed to derive clinical reasoning and prediction of the person’s health.

Methods: In specific, a two-level classification approach is presented. The proposed hierarchical model chooses a class by training a binary classifier at the node of the hierarchy. Prediction is then made using a set of class-specific reduced feature set.

Results: Testing accuracies of 86.87% and 76.84% are reported for the first and second-level classification. Empirical results demonstrate that the proposed approach yields favourable prediction results while greatly reduces the computational time.

Conclusions: The study suggests that it is possible to predict the health condition of a person based on his/her face appearance using cost-effective machine learning approaches.
