In today's digital world, app stores have become an essential part of software distribution, providing customers with a wide range of applications and opportunities for software developers to showcase their work. This study elaborates on the importance of end-user feedback for software evolution. However, in the literature, more emphasis has been given to high-rating & popular software apps while ignoring comparatively low-rating apps. Therefore, the proposed approach focuses on end-user reviews collected from 64 low-rated apps representing 14 categories in the Amazon App Store. We critically analyze feedback from low-rating apps and developed a grounded theory to identify various concepts important for software evolution and improving its quality including user interface (UI) and user experience (UX), functionality and features, compatibility and device-specific, performance and stability, customer support and responsiveness and security and privacy issues. Then, using a grounded theory and content analysis approach, a novel research dataset is curated to evaluate the performance of baseline machine learning (ML), and state-of-the-art deep learning (DL) algorithms in automatically classifying end-user feedback into frequently occurring issues. Various natural language processing and feature engineering techniques are utilized for improving and optimizing the performance of ML and DL classifiers. Also, an experimental study comparing various ML and DL algorithms, including multinomial naive Bayes (MNB), logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), multi-layer perception (MLP), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), AdaBoost, Voting, convolutional neural network (CNN), long short-term memory (LSTM), bidirectional long short term memory (BiLSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU), and recurrent neural network (RNN) classifiers, achieved satisfactory results in classifying end-user feedback to commonly occurring issues. Whereas, MLP, RF, BiGRU, GRU, CNN, LSTM, and Classifiers achieved average accuracies of 94%, 94%, 92%, 91%, 90%, 89%, and 89%, respectively. We employed the SHAP approach to identify the critical features associated with each issue type to enhance the explainability of the classifiers. This research sheds light on areas needing improvement in low-rated apps and opens up new avenues for developers to improve software quality based on user feedback.

Development in Computer vision applications, most prominently in Artificial Intelligence (AI) over the past decade, has encouraged researchers to use computational algorithms. Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms are getting attention in the biomedical area to early diagnosis and prognosis of lethiferous diseases with higher accuracy using statistical analysis. Cervical cancer is one of the predominant gynecological infectious forms of cancer in females ecumenically, generally transpiring in less-developed nations. DL algorithms are more optimized and convenient due to the automatic feature extraction in Cervical lesion detection at an early phase. Here we analyze the convolutional neural network (CNN) models' performance using variation in channels depth comprises in the convolution layers to classify multi-class liquid-based cytology (LBC) Whole slide images (WSI). We propose three CNN models having two convolution layers with the number of channels (4,8), (8,16), and (32,64) and two pooling layers. CNN model with the highest number of channels in the convolution layers gives the leading performance with an accuracy of 96.89%, precision of 93.38%, the sensitivity of 93.75%, and F-score of 94.15%.

The dynamic modulus (|E*|) of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) is a crucial mechanistic characteristic essential in defining the strain response of asphalt concrete (AC) mixtures under varying loading rates and temperatures. This paper aims to conduct a comprehensive investigation of classical machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms as applied to the prediction of |E*| and compare their performance with renowned |E*| regression models (Witczak NCHRP 1-37A, Witczak NCHRP 1-40D, and Hirsch). Eight state-of-the-art ML and DL algorithms are attempted with diverse structures, including multiple linear regression (MLR), decision trees (DT), support vector regression (SVR), ensemble trees (ET), Gaussian process regression (GPR), artificial neural networks (ANN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), and convolutional neural networks (CNN). A comprehensive database was assembled, incorporating 50 AC mixtures, of which 25 were from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and 25 were from the state of Idaho, USA. This database encompasses an extensive dataset of 3,720 |E*| measurements, associated with thirteen input features representing the proposed AC mixtures’ aggregate gradations, binder characteristics, and volumetric properties. This pioneering study surpasses existing research by examining various algorithms to predict |E*| on the same dataset, applying them with different structures and individual optimization to achieve optimal performance. The developed models are evaluated based on multi-stage assessment criteria, including the accuracy and complexity performance measures and rationality based on a sensitivity analysis. The multi-stage comparative analysis results reveal that the bagging ETs, GPR with exponential kernel, and DT record the highest prediction accuracy; however, only the bagging ETs yield the highest accuracy, lowest training and testing complexity, and rational trends throughout the sensitivity analysis. The research outcome has the potential to provide pavement engineers with advanced tools for predicting |E*| and, therefore, optimizing pavement designs and rehabilitations.

Cervical cancer is caused by changes within the cells of the cervix, which connects the female internal reproductive organ and also the epithelial duct canal. This malignancy will affect the deeper tissues of the cervix and may spread to other organs of the body. The human papilloma virus (HPV) is the most prevalent cause of cervical cancer, and this may be avoided with a vaccine. Findings have suggested that inadequate knowledge was the most major reason for not being immunized against HPV. In particular, this cancer is caused by the HPV 16 and HPV 18 variants, which account for around three-quarters of cases. The cervical smear test is a frequent screening tool for the early detection of cervical cancer. However, because of human error, this manual screening approach currently has a high rate of false-positive findings. Traditional cervical cancer-type labelling relies heavily on the pathologist’s skill, which can sometimes be slow or inaccurate. As a result, machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms are now being used to develop computer-aided healthcare systems which have been widely investigated to categorize cervical Pap cells to improve manual screening techniques. DL algorithms have replaced all others as the preferred method for medical picture analysis, face identification, and emotion recognition. Cervical cancer can be detected early, treated well, and perhaps prevented through the use of such technologies. The purpose of this research is to create a viable deep convolutional neural network (CNN) model that can help pathologists to detect cervical cancer. As a result, the method reduces pathologists’ workload and allows them to dedicate their attention to more complex cases.

Modeling time series of vegetation indices in tallgrass prairie using machine and deep learning algorithms

Insect taxonomy lies at the heart of many aspects of ecology, and identification tasks are challenging due to the enormous inter- and intraspecies variation of insects. Conventional methods used to study insect taxonomy are often tedious, time-consuming, labor intensive, and expensive, and recently, computer vision with deep learning algorithms has offered an alternative way to identify and classify insect images into their taxonomic levels. We designed the classification task according to the taxonomic ranks of insects—order, family, and genus—and compared the generalization of four state-of-the-art deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) architectures. The results show that different taxonomic ranks require different deep learning (DL) algorithms to generate high-performance models, which indicates that the design of an automated systematic classification pipeline requires the integration of different algorithms. The InceptionV3 model has advantages over other models due to its high performance in distinguishing insect order and family, which is having F1-score of 0.75 and 0.79, respectively. Referring to the performance per class, Hemiptera (order), Rhiniidae (family), and Lucilia (genus) had the lowest performance, and we discuss the possible rationale and suggest future works to improve the generalization of a DL model for taxonomic rank classification.

ABSTRACTDue to the ever-expanding volume of observed spectroscopic data from surveys such as SDSS and LAMOST, it has become important to apply artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for analysing stellar spectra to solve spectral classification and regression problems like the determination of stellar atmospheric parameters Teff, $\rm {\log g}$, and [Fe/H]. We propose an automated approach for the classification of stellar spectra in the optical region using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Traditional machine learning (ML) methods with ‘shallow’ architecture (usually up to two hidden layers) have been trained for these purposes in the past. However, deep learning methods with a larger number of hidden layers allow the use of finer details in the spectrum which results in improved accuracy and better generalization. Studying finer spectral signatures also enables us to determine accurate differential stellar parameters and find rare objects. We examine various machine and deep learning algorithms like artificial neural networks, Random Forest, and CNN to classify stellar spectra using the Jacoby Atlas, ELODIE, and MILES spectral libraries as training samples. We test the performance of the trained networks on the Indo-U.S. Library of Coudé Feed Stellar Spectra (CFLIB). We show that using CNNs, we are able to lower the error up to 1.23 spectral subclasses as compared to that of two subclasses achieved in the past studies with ML approach. We further apply the trained model to classify stellar spectra retrieved from the SDSS data base with SNR > 20.

Deep leaning in food safety and authenticity detection: An integrative review and future prospects

Deep learning has gained immense popularity in scientific computing, and its algorithms are widely used in complex problem-solving industries. Every deep learning algorithm use different types of neural networks to perform indented tasks. Deep learning (DL) algorithms have emerged from different machine learning and soft computing methodologies. Since then, a number of deep learning (DL) algorithms have been recently introduced in the scientific community and applied in various application fields. Today, the use of DLs has become indispensable due to their intelligence, effective learning, accuracy and reliability in model creation. However, a comprehensive list of DL algorithms has not yet been presented in the scientific literature. This article lists the most popular DL algorithms and their application areas. Deep learning uses ANN artificial neural networks to perform convoluted calculations on huge amounts of data. It is a type of machine learning based on the structure and function of the human brain. Deep learning algorithms train machines by learning from examples. Industries such as healthcare, e-commerce, entertainment and advertising often use deep learning.

Feature mining for encrypted malicious traffic detection with deep learning and other machine learning algorithms

Channel identification is a useful function to support wireless telecommunication operations because the knowledge of the radio frequency propagation channel characteristics can improve communication efficiency and robustness. In recent times, the application of machine learning (ML) algorithms to the problem of channel identification has been proposed in the literature. In particular, Deep Learning (DL) has demonstrated superior performance to ’shallow’ machine learning algorithms for many wireless communication functions. Inspired by the success of DL in literature, the authors in this paper apply Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to the problem of channel identification, which is still an emerging research area. CNN is a deep learning algorithm that has demonstrated superior performance to ML algorithms, in particular for image processing tasks. Because the digitized RF signal is a one-dimensional time series, different algorithms are applied to convert the time series to images using various Time Frequency Transform (TFT) including the CWTs, spectrogram, and Wigner Ville distribution. The images are then provided as input to the CNN. The approach is applied to a data set based on weather radar pulse signals generated in the laboratory of the author’s facilities on which different fading models are applied. These models are inspired by the tap-delay-line 3GPP configurations defined in the standards, but they have been customized with Nakagami-m fading distribution (3GPP-like fading models). The results show the superior performance of time–frequency CNN in comparison to 1D CNN for different values of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) in dB. In particular, the study shows that the Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) has the optimal performance in this data set, but the choice of the mother wavelet remains a problem to be solved (this is a well-known problem in the research literature). Then, this study also proposes an adaptive technique for the choice of the optimal mother wavelet, which is evaluated on the mentioned data set. The results show that the adaptive proposed approach is able to obtain the optimal performance for most of the SNR conditions.

Background Combining the artificial intelligence algorithm with the known clinical risk factors may provide enhanced accuracy for prediction of the hidden atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with embolic stroke with undetermined source (ESUS). Purpose We aimed to develop enhanced prediction models for AF with deep learning algorithm (DLA) and clinical predictors in patients with ESUS. The DLA was created to identify the patients with paroxysmal AF based on their electrocardiograms (ECG) during sinus rhythm. Methods We analyzed the 221 patients who underwent insertable cardiac monitor (ICM) for AF detection following ESUS. The DLA was previously developed with sinus rhythm ECGs of 10,605 paroxysmal AF patients and 50,522 non-AF patients. The convolutional neural network was used for the DLA. The primary endpoint was defined as any AF episode lasting over 5 min by ICM. The atrial ectopic burden (AEB) was calculated as the percentage of the number of conducted QRS by atrial ectopy on Holter monitoring. Results AF (≥5 min) was detected by ICM in 32 patients (14.5%) during follow-up period of 15.1±8.6 months. AF patients had higher AEB (0.199% vs 0.023%, p<0.001), larger left atrial diameters (LAD, 41.2 mm vs 35.7 mm, p<0.001), and larger left atrial volume index (LAVI, 46.4 ml/m2 vs 32.3 ml/m2, p<0.001) than those without AF. The means of calculated probabilities of AF by DLA were higher in patients with AF than those without AF (63.8% vs 40.2%, p<0.001). In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the areas under the curve (AUC) were the highest in DLA (0.824) followed by AEB (0.784), LAVI (0.780), and LAD (0.768). The multivariable model with AEB, LAVI, and DLA demonstrated excellent prediction accuracy for paroxysmal AF (AUC: 0.902, Figure 1) Conclusions In patients with ESUS, the DLA outperformed other clinical risk factors for prediction of AF. Combining DLA with AEB, LAD and LAVI could is a potential useful tool to predict AF in ESUS patients. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding sources: None.
