Internet-based social channels have turned into an important information repository for many people to get an idea about current trends and events happening around the world. As a result of Abundance of raw information on these social media platforms, it has become a crucial platform for businesses and individuals to make decisions based on social media analytics. The ever-expanding volume of online data available on the global network necessitates the use of specialized techniques and methods to effectively analyse and utilize this vast amount of information. This study's objective is to comprehend the textual information at the Lexical and Semantic level and to extract sentiments from this information in the most accurate way possible. To achieve this, the paper proposes to cluster semantically related words by evaluating their lexical similarity with respect to feature and sequence vectors. The proposed method utilizes Natural Language Processing, semantic and lexical clustering and hybrid C4.5 algorithm to extract six subcategories of emotions over three classes of sentiments based on word-based analysis of text. The proposed approach has yielded superior results with seven existing approaches in terms of parametric values, with an accuracy of 0.96, precision of 0.92, sensitivity of 0.94, and an f1-score of 0.92.

Cancer is an abnormal cell growth that occurs uncontrollably within the human body and has the potential to spread to other organs. One of the primary causes of mortality and morbidity for people is cancer, particularly lung cancer. Lung cancer is one of the non-communicable diseases (NCDs), causing 71% of all deaths globally, and is the second most common cancer diagnosed worldwide. The effectiveness of treatment and the survival rate of cancer patients can be significantly increased by early and exact cancer detection. An important factor in specifying the type of cancer is the histopathological diagnosis. In this study, we present a Simple Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and EfficientNetB3 architecture that is both straightforward and efficient for accurately classifying lung cancer from medical images. EfficientnetB3 emerged as the best-performing classifier, acquiring a trustworthy level of precision, recall, and F1 score, with a remarkable accuracy of 100%, and superior performance demonstrates EfficientnetB3’s better capacity for an accurate lung cancer detection system. Nonetheless, the accuracy ratings of 85% obtained by Simple CNN also demonstrated useful categorization. CNN models had significantly lower accuracy scores than the EfficientnetB3 model, but these determinations indicate how acceptable the classifiers are for lung cancer detection. The novelty of our research is that less work is done on histopathological images. However, the accuracy of the previous work is not very high. In this research, our model outperformed the previous result. The results are advantageous for developing systems that effectively detect lung cancer and provide crucial information about the classifier’s efficiency.

Microfinance institutions in India provide a set of financial services to the economically weaker sections. Recently, a large number of microfinance institutions have emerged in India and they have favorable impact for poverty reduction. The impact of these institutions on entrepreneurship and society, needs to be explored in greater depth. The objective of this study is to apply machine learning techniques to explore this impact. The research uses a MIX dataset for three successive years, namely 2017, 2018, and 2019. This dataset comprises eight variables centered on gross loan portfolio. Principal Component Analysis (PCM) has been applied on the sample dataset for dimensionality reduction, resulting in two main components and each component consist of fraction from eight variables. Then, the sample dataset has been labelled with the help of clustering using K-means clustering technique. Further, classification models based on K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are applied to predict the appropriate category of entrepreneurship. The experiment result shows that the machine learning techniques have been found effective and useful tools for estimating the impact of microfinance on entrepreneurship in India.

The application of machine learning technologies for cancer detection purposes are rising due to their ever-increasing accuracy. Melanoma is one of the most common types of skin cancer. Detection of melanoma in the early stages can significantly prevent illness and fetal death. The application of innovative machine learning technology is highly relevant and valuable due to medical practitioners' difficulty in early-stage diagnoses. This paper provides an open-source tutorial on the performance of an algorithm that helps to diagnose melanoma by extracting features from dermatoscopic images and their classification. First, we used a Dull-Razor preprocessing method to remove extra details such as hair. Next, histogram adjustments and lighting thresholds were used to increase the contrast and select lesion boundaries. After using a threshold, a binary-classified version of image was obtained, and the boundary of the lesion was determined. As a result, the features from skin tissue were extracted. Finally, a comparative study was conducted between three methods which are Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN). The results show that ANN could achieve better accuracy (83.5%). In order to mitigate the biases in existing studies, the source code of this research is available at hadi-naghavipour.com/ml to serve aspiring researchers for improvement, correction and learning and provide a guideline for technology manager practitioners.

Purpose: Despite the widespread diffusion and interest aroused by content marketing, little attention has been paid until this moment to building a framework that presents the main currents and studies of the field.

Multicasting is an important operation in software-defined wireless sensor networks (SDWSNs). In this operation, a group of nodes specified by their unique node identification numbers is supposed to receive the same multicast message at the approximately same time, if possible. These nodes are termed as multicast members or multicast destinations. They need not be physically close to one another to form a group. The present article proposes an energy-efficient scheduler exclusively for multicast operation in the SDWSN environment. Based on the advantages provided by underlying network architecture, a router can efficiently schedule multicast packets belonging to various multicast sessions. This promotes greenery in the network and significantly increases the packet delivery ratio. These claims are supported and justified by the experimental results presented in this paper. As far as the authors know, there is no multicast packet scheduler in the literature of wireless sensor networks or WSN. SDWSN is a more advanced version, and no multicast protocol has yet been proposed for these kinds of networks. Therefore, while designing the present fuzzy scheduler, we kept in mind all standard multicast protocols in the WSN environment.

Co-Saliency object detection is the process of identifying common and repetitive objects from the group of images. Earlier studies have looked over several state-of-art deep neural network methodologies for co-saliency detection approach. The Deep CNN approaches rely heavily on co-saliency detection due to their potent feature extraction capabilities both deep and wide. This article assess the performance of several state-of-art deep learning model (VGG19, Inceptionv3, modifiedResNet, MobileNetV2 and PoolNet) for the purpose of co-saliency detection among images from benchmark datasets. All the models were trained on   70% part of the dataset and remaining were used for testing purpose. Experimental results show that modified ResNetmodel outperforms getting 96.53% accuracy as compared to other state-of-the-art deep neural network models.

Diabetes is a type of metabolic disorder with a high level of blood glucose. Due to the high blood sugar, the risk of heart-related diseases like heart attack and stroke got increased. The number of diabetic patients worldwide has increased significantly, and it is considered to be a major life-threatening disease worldwide. The diabetic disease cannot be cured but it can be controlled and managed by timely detection. Artificial Intelligence (AI) with Machine Learning (ML) empowers automatic early diabetes detection which is found to be much better than a manual method of diagnosis. At present, there are many research papers available on diabetes detection using ML techniques. This article aims to outline most of the literature related to ML techniques applied for diabetes prediction and summarize the related challenges. It also talks about the conclusions of the existing model and the benefits of the AI model. After a thorough screening method, 74 articles from the Scopus and Web of Science databases are selected for this study. This review article presents a clear outlook of diabetes detection which helps the researchers work in the area of automated diabetes prediction.

The paper considers the possibilities of optimizing the search for agricultural information based on Shannon information entropy criterion. A comparison of the degree of uncertainty of information search through the Internet – search systems with similar indicators of Ukrainian agricultural websites. According to the number of hit count in Ukraine in July 2020 to the search engine, which consists of 10 sources, and to agricultural websites (43 sources) by estimating entropy, a conclusion was made about the significant degree of dispersion of agricultural information sources. It should be emphasized that the artificial division into 4 categories (AgroMedia, Agrotrade web resources, Information and advisory resources, Specialized web resources) did not improve the situation according to the degree of uncertainty compared to the search engine system. As for the entropy index, for almost all 4 categories of entropy indices (heterogeneity or diversity) is close to the case of uniform distribution, i.e., the same hit count of all possible resources (their number for all categories is approximately the same 10-11). As a result of the analysis of the potential client base of electronic consulting, it can be quantified as 4,700,000 of agricultural households and about 50,000 small and medium-sized farms. The transition to the land market is likely to lead to a substantial increase in the number of the latter. It was demonstrated that the current educational level of household owners indicates both the need to increase this indicator and the presence of a close relationship with the existing system of professional advisory in Ukraine, which operates in recent years through self-sufficiency and uncertain financial support from central and regional authorities. The existing official database of advisors should be restructured in line with the call of the times to reduce the degree of uncertainty in finding a specialist of the desired profile.
