Vol 4, No 2 (2019): Machine Learning for Cyber Security using Big Data Analytics
Abstract
Machine Learning is an Approach to AI that uses a system that is capable of learning from experience. It is intended not only for AI goals (e.g., copying human behavior) but it can also reduce the efforts and/or time spent for both simple and difficult tasks like stock price prediction. In other words, ML is a system that can recognize patterns by using examples rather than by programming them. Big data analytics in security involves the ability to gather massive amounts of digital information to analyze, picture and draw insights that can make it possible to predict and stop cyber attacks. Along with security technologies, it gives us stronger cyber defense posture. They allow organizations to recognize patterns of activity that represent network threats. In this paper, I emphasis on how Big Data be able to progress information security best practices. I am trying to apply machine learning procedures in cyber security using big data Analytics.

Vol 4, No 2 (2019): Handwritten Digit Recognition by Neural Networks
Abstract
This paper chronicles the development of an artificial neural network designed to recognize handwritten digits. The neural network described here is not a general-purpose neural network, and it's not some kind of a neural network workbench. Rather, we will focus on one very specific neural network (a five-layer convolutional neural network) built for one very specific purpose (to recognize handwritten digits). One of our goals here was to reproduce the accuracy achieved by Dr. LeCun, who was able to train his neural network to achieve 99.18% accuracy (i.e., an error rate of only 0.82%). This error rate served as a type of "benchmark", guiding our work.

Vol 4, No 2 (2019): Real Estate Properties Assessment Using Deep Neural Network
Abstract
Real estate properties assessment is the price estimation process for real estate properties. Nowadays, real estate brokers provide easy access to detailed online information on real estate properties to their clients. Regularly, the repeat sales model has been widely adopted to estimate real estate price. Generally for price prediction Regression is used i.e. prediction of continuous valued-function. But here we are going to use Deep Neural Network in order to improve productivity and accuracy. We introduce a deep learning approach to smartly and effectively evaluating real estate values. We propose a systematic method to derive a layered knowledge graph and design a structured Deep Neural Network (DNN) based on it. Neurons in a structured DNN are structurally connected, which makes the network time and space efficient; and thus, it requires fewer data points for training. The DNN model has been planned to learn from the most recently taken data points. We propose a systematic method to derive a layered knowledge graph and design a structured Deep Neural Network based on it. We introduce a deep learning approach to smartly and effectively assessing real estate values.

Vol 4, No 1 (2019): Real Estate Price Estimation Using Deep Neural Network
Abstract
REAL estate appraisal, which is the price estimation process for real estate properties, for both buyers and sellers it is essential as the basis for compromise and deal. Customarily, the repeat sales model has been widely adopted to estimate real estate price. Though, it depends on the design and calculation of a complex economic related index, which is challenging to estimate accurately the estate’s price. Nowadays, real estate brokers provide easy access to detailed online information on real estate properties to their clients. In a smart city, effective and accurate real estate assessments governed by a local government is crucial for determining the property taxes. Such assessments have never been trivial, and inappropriate assessments may result in disputes between property owners and the local government. Generally for price prediction Regression is used (Prediction of continuous valued-function). But here we are going to use Structured Deep Neural Network in order to improve efficiency and accuracy. We introduce a deep learning approach to smartly and effectively assessing real estate values. We propose a systematic method to derive a layered knowledge graph and design a structured Deep Neural Network (DNN) based on it. Neurons in a structured DNN are structurally connected, which makes the network time and space efficient; and thus, it requires fewer data points for training. The structured DNN model has been designed to learn from the most recently captured data points; therefore, it allows the model to adapt to the latest market trends.

Vol 4, No 1 (2019): A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning for Image Captioning
Abstract
This Paper will involve developing a model that generates suitable captions for images. This will help in analyzing image and converting the textual content to other useful forms. Image descriptions provide textual information about non-text content that appears on your website, allowing it to be presented auditory, as visual text, or in any other form that is best for the user. Image descriptions are plain text descriptions of images, gifs, videos, and other media. Humans have been captioning images involuntary since decades and now in the age of social media where every image has a caption over various social platforms. Psychologically those things are affected by events and scenarios running in mind or influenced by nearby activities and emotion. Sometimes those are far-far away from real context. Describing the content of an image is a fundamental problem in artificial intelligence that connects computer vision and natural language processing.

Authors:Â Apoorva Shanbhag, Deekshith G Nayak, Pai Akash Anilkumar*, Saniya, Narayan Naik
Abstract:Â The main idea behind this project is to detect and classify Brain Tumor using MRI images. Brain Tumor is an abnormal intracranial growth caused by cells reproducing themselves in an uncontrolled manner. The algorithm incorporates steps for pre-processing feature extraction and image classification using neural network techniques. Human investigation is the routine technique for brain MRI tumor detection and tumor classification. Interpretation of images is based on organized and explicit classification of brain MRI and also various techniques have been proposed. Information identified with anatomical structures and potential abnormal tissues which are noteworthy to treat are given by brain tumor segmentation on MRI, the proposed system uses the adaptive pillar KMeans algorithm for successful segmentation and the classification methodology is done by the two-tier classification approach. The proposed two-tier classification system classifies the brain tumors in double training process which gives preferable performance over the traditional classification method. The proposed system has been validated with the support of real data sets and the experimental results showed enhanced performance.

Vol 3, No 1 (2018): Diagnosis Children's with Dyslexia Using Machine Learning Technique
Abstract
Worldwide, around 10% of the population has dyslexia, a specific learning disorder. Most of previous eye tracking experiments with people with and without dyslexia have found differences between populations suggesting that eye movements reflect the difficulties of individuals with dyslexia. In this paper, we present the first statistical model to predict readers with and without dyslexia using eye tracking measures. The model is trained and evaluated in a 10-fold cross experiment with a dataset composed of 1,135 readings of people with and without dyslexia that were recorded with an eye tracker. Our model, based on a Support Vector Ma- chine binary classifier, reaches 80.18% accuracy using the most informative features. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that eye tracking measures are used to predict automatically readers with dyslexia using machine learning.

Vol 3, No 1 (2018): Review: Convolutional Neural Network Machine Learning Algorithm
Abstract
In machine learning, a convolutional neural network (CNN, or ConvNet) is a class of deep, feed-forward artificial neural networks that has successfully been applied to analyzing visual imagery. This paper, proposes the possibility of learning deep network structures and the relative study of their wide range of applications. CNNs use a variation of multilayer perceptron designed to require minimal preprocessing. The engineering of CNN is accomplished with neighborhood associations and tied weights overtaken by some type of pooling which brings about interpretation invariant highlights. Another advantage of CNNs is that they are less demanding to prepare and have numerous less parameters than completely associated systems with a similar number of concealed units. An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with numerous concealed layers between the info and yield layers is a profound neural system (DNN). Deep learning structures of CNN, have been connected to fields of computer vision, speech recognition, natural language processing, audio recognition, social network filtering, machine translation and bioinformatics where the delivered comes about tantamount to and at times better than human specialists.

Vol 2, No 2 (2017): Zero-Shot and Few-Shot Learning: Enabling Intelligence with Minimal Data
Abstract
Traditional machine learning models depend heavily on large labeled datasets for achieving good performance. However, in many real-world situations, collecting large amounts of labeled data is expensive, time consuming, or even impossible. This limitation motivated the development of Zero-Shot Learning (ZSL) and Few-Shot Learning (FSL) techniques, which aim to recognize new classes with little or no training examples. These approaches try to mimic the human ability of learning new concepts from very limited experience. Zero-shot learning relies on auxiliary information such as semantic attributes or textual descriptions to identify unseen classes, while few-shot learning leverages a small number of examples with advanced training strategies like meta-learning and metric learning. This paper presents a detailed review of the principles, techniques, architectures, and applications of ZSL and FSL. Recent advancements using deep learning, transformers, and large language models are also discussed. Challenges, evaluation methods, and future research directions are highlighted.
