As electronic commerce has gained widespread popularity, payments made for users' transactions through credit cards also gained an equal amount of reputation. Whenever shopping through the web is made, the chance for the occurrence of fraudulent activities are escalating. In this paper, we have proposed a three-phase scheme to detect fraudulent activities. A profile for the card users based on their behavior is created by employing a machine learning technique in the second phase extraction of a precise communicative pattern for the card users depending upon the accumulated transactions and the user's earlier transactions. A collection of classifiers are then trained based on all behavioral pattern. The trained collection of classifiers are then used to detect the fraudulent online activities that occurred. If an emerging transaction is fraudulent, feedback is taken, which resolves the drift's difficulty in the notion. Experiments performed indicated that the proposed scheme works better than other schemes.

Cloud Computing has drastically simplified the management of IT resources by introducing the concept of resource pooling. It has led to a tremendous improvement in infrastructure planning. The major goals of cloud computing include maximization of computing resources with minimization of cost. But the truth is that everything has a price and cloud computing is no different. With Cloud computing there comes a number of security concerns which need to be addressed. Cloud forensics plays a vital role to address the security issues related to cloud computing by identifying, collecting and studying digital evidence in cloud environment. The aim of the research paper is to explore the concept of cloud forensic by applying optimization for feature selection before classification of data on cloud side. The data is classified as malicious and non-malicious using convolutional neural network. The proposed system makes a comparison of models with and without feature selection algorithms before applying the data to CNN. A comparison of different metaheuristics algorithms- Particle Swarm Optimization, Shuffled Frog Leap Optimization and Fire fly algorithm for feature optimization is done based on convergence rate and efficiency.

This paper describes a series of experiments in using logistic regression machine learning as a method for entity resolution. From these experiments the authors concluded that when a supervised ML algorithm is trained to classify a pair of entity references as linked or not linked pair, the evaluation of the model’s performance should take into account the transitive closure of its pairwise linking decisions, not just the pairwise classifications alone. Part of the problem is that the measures of precision and recall as calculated in data mining classification algorithms such as logistic regression is different from applying these measures to entity resolution (ER) results.. As a classifier, logistic regression precision and recall measure the algorithm’s pairwise decision performance. When applied to ER, precision and recall measure how accurately the set of input references were partitioned into subsets (clusters) referencing the same entity. When applied to datasets containing more than two references, ER is a two-step process. Step One is to classify pairs of records as linked or not linked. Step Two applies transitive closure to these linked pairs to find the maximally connected subsets (clusters) of equivalent references. The precision and recall of the final ER result will generally be different from the precision and recall measures of the pairwise classifier used to power the ER process. The experiments described in the paper were performed using a well-tested set of synthetic customer data for which the correct linking is known. The best F-measure of precision and recall for the final ER result was obtained by substantially increasing the threshold of the logistic regression pairwise classifier.

The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) is a government institution that has the authority to carry out statistical activities in the form of censuses and surveys, to produce statistical data needed by the government, the private sector and the general public, as a reference in planning, monitoring, and evaluation of development results. Therefore, providing quality statistical data is very decisive because it will have an impact on the effectiveness of decision making. This paper aims to develop a framework to determine priority of solutions in overcoming data quality problems using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The framework is built by conducting interviews and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) on experts to get the interrelationship between problems and solutions. The model that has been built is then tested in a case study, namely the Central Jakarta Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS). The results of the study indicate that the proposed model can be used to formulate solutions to data problems in BPS.

Human Identification has been widely implemented to enhance the efficiency of surveillance systems, however, systems based on common CCTV (closed-circuit television) cameras are mostly incompatible with the advanced identification algorithms which aim to extract the facial features or speech of an individual for identification. Gait (i.e., an individual’s unique walking pattern/style) is a leading exponent when compared to first-generation biometric modalities as it is unobtrusive (i.e., it requires no contact with the individual), hence proving gait to be an optimal solution to human identification at a distance. This paper proposes an automatic identification system that analyzes gait to identify humans at a distance and predicts the strength of the match (i.e., probability of the match being positive) between two gait profiles. This is achieved by incorporating computer vision, digital image processing, vectorization, artificial intelligence, and multi-threading. The proposed model extracts gait profiles (from low-resolution camera feeds) by breaking down the complete gait cycle into four quarter-cycles using the variations in the width of the region-of-interest and then saves the gait profile in the form of four distinct projections (i.e., vectors) of length 20 units each, thus, summing up to 80 features for each individual’s gait profile. The focus of this study revolved around the speed-accuracy tradeoff of the proposed model where, with a limited dataset and training, the model runs at a speed of 30Hz and yields 85% accurate results on average. A Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (ROC) is obtained for comparison of the proposed model with other machine learning models to better understand the efficiency of the system

This paper focuses on the contribution of digital government (DGOV) to Whistleblowing (WB). While considerable efforts have been devoted to DGOV and WB separately, research work at the intersection of these two domains is very scarce; hence and a systematic DGOV for WB (DGOV4WB) research framework has yet to emerge. This paper aims to identify the potential issues in whistleblowing and explore how digital government has been used to address these issues. To this end, this paper uses explanatory case study research methodology and analyses four case studies of existing DGOV initiatives with explicit WB dimensions. The result of the cross-case analysis shows that DGOV4WB initiatives contribute to address goals of the different dimensions of whistleblowing. The most common WB problems addressed are: easily accessible reporting and response whistleblowing channels (Whistleblowing Procedure), easy and timely communication channel with top management (Whistleblowing Organizational culture), and anonymous and confidential communication platforms (Whistleblower Protection). In addition, based on the analysis of the case studies, all the initiatives are classified as either engagement or contextualization stage of the digital government evolution model.

Agriculture is one of the essential sources of occupation and revenue in India. Conferring to existing statistics, most agriculturalists are facing severe losses due to poor farming yield. Farming activities are challenged by various environmental factors that affect agricultural productivity to a greater extent. The present farming situation is above the average of the process involves more biochemical bases for managing the diseases and other destructing facts. The foremost problems they are facing in day-to-day farming tasks are crop or plant diseases affecting productivity. Also, the growth of weeds along with field crops has been another challenge.  The technology has developed to rectify the problems using some machine learning algorithms like Random Forest algorithms, Decision trees, Naïve Bayes, KNN, K-Means clustering, Support vector machines. The result has been evaluated and observed through the performance evaluation metrics using confusion matrix, accuracy, precision, Sensitivity, specificity with the observations, research, and studies. The statistics have expressed the overall accuracy of 98% by achieving the detection of diseases in plants and by removing the weeds that ruin the growth of plants.

The introduction of information technology in the structure of procedural legal relations contributes to the full implementation of the principles of procedural law and optimization of civil proceedings. The purpose of this study is to develop scientifically sound proposals and recommendations for the latest concept of optimization of civil justice by means of information technology. The study of the impact of information technology in civil proceedings was conducted on the basis of integrated use of general and special methods of scientific knowledge. The optimization of civil proceedings as a system of theoretical ideas and views on civil procedural activity from the standpoint of means, methods and techniques of its improvement is considered. The basic elements of the latest concept are the provisions of the general methodological basis for studying the problem of optimization, the concept and structural characteristics of optimization, civil jurisdiction in terms of optimization and ensuring the right to due process, optimization of procedures for preparation and trial of civil cases, cassation in the system of instance review of court decisions. It has proved that the search for a harmonious combination of protective and conciliatory functions of civil proceedings, as a characteristic concept of modern procedural systems, determines the main directions of optimizing the preparation of civil cases for trial. It has established that in the reform of the judiciary of Ukraine it is important not only to digitize existing processes. The most important thing is to change the approach to justice itself, making it simpler and more accessible to all with the help of information technology. In this sense, the introduction of affordable online court involves not only the introduction of innovative technologies, but also the revision and significant simplification of procedural rules.
