Rhodamine 6G – polymethylmethacrylate/polycarbonate (Rh6G–PMMA/PC) were prepared by a casting method at room temperature with diverse volume ratios of Rh6G dye solution (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25) ml. The as-prepared films were categorised via UV–Vis spectrophotometer, and the optical properties were investigated in the wavelength range of (200-800) nm. The absorption peaks for pure PMMA/PC film were affected by inserting Rh6G dye solution, the wavelength of absorption peak of pure PMMA/PC film is at 300 nm and 340 nm while there are different behaveior at different concentration of RG6 after mixing with PMMA/PC films; there are red shift for concentrations (10 and 25 ml) of RG6 after mixing with PMMA/PC films by appear another peaks at 530 nm and 535 nm respectively. In addition, there is a blue shift for concentrations (15 and 20 ml) of RG6 after mixing with PMMA/PC films, as evidenced by the appearance of new peaks at wavelength 265 nm. Furthermore, new peaks appeared and were absorbed while the energy band gap was influenced, with values ranging from 4.3 eV for pure PMMA/PC film to 4.18 eV for mixtures 10 and 25 ml concentration of Rh6G/ PMMA/PC belonging to the red shift to 4.9 eV and 4.85 eV for mixtures 15 and 20 ml concentration of Rh6G/ PMMA/PC belonging to the blue shift.
采用浇铸法制备罗丹明6G -聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯/聚碳酸酯(Rh6G - pmma /PC),采用不同体积比的Rh6G染料溶液(5、10、15、20和25)ml,通过紫外可见分光光度计对制备的薄膜进行了分类,并在(200-800)nm波长范围内对其光学性能进行了研究。Rh6G染料溶液的加入影响了纯PMMA/PC膜的吸收峰,纯PMMA/PC膜的吸收峰波长分别为300 nm和340 nm,不同浓度的RG6与PMMA/PC膜混合后表现出不同的行为;浓度为10和25 ml的RG6与PMMA/PC膜混合后出现红移,分别在530 nm和535 nm处出现另一个峰。此外,浓度(15和20 ml)的RG6与PMMA/PC膜混合后出现蓝移,在波长265 nm处出现新峰。此外,随着能带间隙的影响,新的峰出现并被吸收,其值范围从纯PMMA/PC膜的4.3 eV到Rh6G/ PMMA/PC混合物浓度为10和25 ml时的4.18 eV属于红移,到混合物浓度为15和20 ml时的4.9 eV和4.85 eV属于蓝移。

The frequent occurrence of climate related events and changes in average temperature, are predicted to increase the vulnerability of the coastal population of Sindh. A climate vulnerability index (CVI) was established and applied to the coastal subdistricts of Badin, Sindh, Pakistan. This study aimed to recognize the vulnerabilities of the coastal population of Sindh exposed to climate change. According to the study, the subdistricts of Badin have been exposed to high temperatures and significant climatic tragedies during the last two decades. The highest vulnerability to climate variability was found in Tando Bago (0.72) and Badin (0.70). Matli is better off in adaptive capacity through socio-demographic (0.29). The vulnerability to resource dependency and knowledge and skill was low in the sub-district of Talhar. In terms of sensitivity, Tando Bago is the most sensitive subdistrict in terms of health (0.55) and resource variability (0.80). The study raises concerns related to coastal communities and their aptitude to address present and upcoming challenges connected with climate change and increased insecurity. The CVI calculated (0.59) can be utilized to improve adaptive capacity, minimize sensitivity, and mitigate exposure to climatic extremes in adaptation planning.
气候相关事件的频繁发生和平均温度的变化,预计会增加信德省沿海人口的脆弱性。建立了气候脆弱性指数(CVI),并将其应用于巴基斯坦信德省巴丁沿海各区。本研究旨在认识信德省沿海人口在气候变化下的脆弱性。根据这项研究,在过去的二十年里,巴丁的街道已经暴露在高温和重大的气候悲剧中。对气候变率的脆弱性最高的是坦多巴固(0.72)和巴丁(0.70)。马特利在社会人口适应能力方面表现较好(0.29)。Talhar分区对资源依赖、知识和技能的脆弱性较低。就敏感性而言,坦多巴固在卫生(0.55)和资源变异性(0.80)方面是最敏感的分区。该研究提出了对沿海社区的担忧,以及他们应对气候变化和不安全加剧带来的当前和未来挑战的能力。计算得到的CVI(0.59)可用于气候适应规划中提高适应能力、降低敏感性和减少极端气候暴露。

Coral deterioration is often linked with coastal pollution. This aimed to study biochemical stress responses in the common coral Stylophora pistillata collected and/or planted in coastal sites subject to pollution and sites without pollution in the Gulf of Aqaba. DNA damage and lipid peroxidation were analyzed to measure stress in corals. High DNA damage was found in natural corals from polluted sites, while higher lipid peroxidation was found in control site compared with polluted sites. Lipid peroxidation was higher in polluted sites after one-year of deployment. Corals’ incubations with copper and lead produced high levels of DNA damage and lipid peroxidation compared with control samples. The results suggested that although corals are visually looking healthy, but they are suffering at subcellular levels. The consequences of such stress might affect the fecundity and growth rates of corals. The results suggest that biomarkers used are efficient tools for early stress detection in corals, though the cost of assessing DNA damage is relatively expensive compared with lipid peroxidation.
珊瑚退化通常与海岸污染有关。本研究旨在研究在亚喀巴湾沿岸污染和无污染地点采集和/或种植的普通珊瑚柱头藻的生化应激反应。分析了珊瑚的DNA损伤和脂质过氧化,以测量压力。污染地点的天然珊瑚DNA损伤程度较高,而对照地点的脂质过氧化程度高于污染地点。一年后,污染地点的脂质过氧化率较高。与对照样本相比,与铜和铅孵育的珊瑚产生了高水平的DNA损伤和脂质过氧化。结果表明,虽然珊瑚在视觉上看起来很健康,但它们在亚细胞水平上却受到了伤害。这种压力的后果可能会影响珊瑚的繁殖力和生长速度。结果表明,使用的生物标志物是珊瑚早期应力检测的有效工具,尽管与脂质过氧化相比,评估DNA损伤的成本相对昂贵。

As Lab-on-Chip platforms with micro-and nano-dimensions evolve biosensors using miniaturized and high-sensitivity cantilevers are becoming more attractive. Although these sensors function in non-isothermal situations, computational mathematics generally ignores the temperature. Conversely, biosensor cannot be designed with a single-layered cantilever. Yet, in Nano-Electro- Mechanical-Systems, the influence of temperature is more likely to be dominant since the surfaceto- volume ratio is higher. In the context of this conclusion, the mathematical modelling comprises temperature and the associated material attributes. This work presents a simple and direct analytical technique for analysing the control of bimetallic cantilevers with NEMS-based sensing and actuation mechanisms. Methodological techniques were used to develop and solve some wellknown models of mathematical equations. Parametric analysis data is a major factor in the functioning of all of the other works studied. The findings of FEA comparisons and experiments reveal that the mathematical model's predictions are more than 20% correct.
随着微纳米级芯片实验室平台的发展,使用小型化和高灵敏度悬臂梁的生物传感器正变得越来越有吸引力。虽然这些传感器在非等温情况下起作用,但计算数学通常忽略温度。相反,生物传感器不能设计成单层悬臂结构。然而,在纳米机电系统中,由于表面体积比较高,温度的影响更有可能占主导地位。在这个结论的背景下,数学模型包括温度和相关的材料属性。这项工作提出了一种简单而直接的分析技术,用于分析基于nems的传感和驱动机构对双金属悬臂梁的控制。方法技术被用来发展和解决一些著名的数学方程模型。参数分析数据是所有其他研究工作的主要因素。有限元对比和实验结果表明,数学模型的预测正确率在20%以上。

Almost one out of five people, including children, suffers from musculoskeletal disorders. It is the second leading cause of disability worldwide. It affects the musculoskeletal system’s major areas, represented by the shoulder, forearm, and wrist. It causes severe pain, joint noises, and disability. To detect the abnormality, the radiologist analyzes the patient’s anatomy through X-rays of different views and projections. To automatically diagnose the abnormality in the musculoskeletal system is a challenging task. Previously, various researchers detected the abnormality in the musculoskeletal system from radiographic images by using several deep learning techniques. They used a capsule network, 169-layer convolutional neural network, and group normalized convolutional neural network in musculoskeletal abnormality detection. However, to propose methods for improving abnormality detection, further work needs to be done because the accuracy of the conventional methods is far away from 90%. This paper presents an ensemble learning-based classification system for detecting abnormality in wrist radiographs. Tags in radiographs may result in learning noisy features hence reducing the performance. Therefore, tags are segmented and removed using UNet trained on the annotated ground truths. Segmented images are then used for voting-based diagnosis. The simulation results show that the proposed methodology improves testing accuracy by 1.5%-4.5% compared to the available wrist abnormality detection methods. The proposed methodology can be used for any kind of musculoskeletal abnormality detection.
包括儿童在内,几乎五分之一的人患有肌肉骨骼疾病。它是全球第二大致残原因。它影响肌肉骨骼系统的主要区域,以肩膀、前臂和手腕为代表。它会导致严重的疼痛、关节噪音和残疾。为了检测异常,放射科医生通过不同角度和投影的x射线分析患者的解剖结构。自动诊断肌肉骨骼系统异常是一项具有挑战性的任务。以前,各种研究人员通过使用几种深度学习技术从放射图像中检测肌肉骨骼系统的异常。他们使用胶囊网络、169层卷积神经网络和组归一化卷积神经网络进行肌肉骨骼异常检测。然而,由于常规方法的准确率远低于90%,要提出提高异常检测的方法还需要进一步的工作。提出了一种基于集成学习的腕部x线片异常检测分类系统。x光片中的标签可能导致学习噪声特征,从而降低性能。因此,使用在注释的基础真理上训练的UNet对标签进行分割和删除。然后将分割后的图像用于基于投票的诊断。仿真结果表明,与现有的腕部异常检测方法相比,该方法的检测精度提高了1.5% ~ 4.5%。所提出的方法可用于任何类型的肌肉骨骼异常检测。

Fraud on health insurance impacts cost overruns and a quality decline in health services in the long term. The use of machine learning to detect fraud on health insurance is increasingly popular. However, one challenge in predicting health insurance fraud is the data imbalance. The data imbalance can cause a bias towards the majority class in many machine learning methods. Oversampling is a solution for data imbalance by augmenting new data based on the existing minority class data. Recently, there has been growing interest in employing deep learning for data augmentation. One of them is using Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN). This paper proposes using GAN as an oversampling method to generate additional data for minority classes. Since data for detecting health insurance fraud are tabular, we adopt Conditional Tabular GAN (CTGAN) architecture where the generator is conditioned to adjust the tabular data input and receive additional information to produce samples according to the specified class conditions. The new balanced data are used to train 17 classification algorithms. Our experiments showed that the proposed method performs better than other oversampling methods on several evaluation metrics, i.e., accuracy, precision score, F1-score, and ROC.
从长远来看,医疗保险欺诈会造成成本超支和卫生服务质量下降。使用机器学习来检测医疗保险欺诈越来越受欢迎。然而,预测健康保险欺诈的一个挑战是数据不平衡。在许多机器学习方法中,数据不平衡会导致对大多数类的偏见。过采样是一种解决数据不平衡的方法,它是在现有的少数类数据的基础上增加新的数据。最近,人们对利用深度学习进行数据增强越来越感兴趣。其中之一是使用生成对抗网络(GAN)。本文提出使用GAN作为过采样方法来生成少数类的附加数据。由于检测健康保险欺诈的数据是表格式的,我们采用条件表格式GAN (Conditional tabular GAN, CTGAN)架构,该架构对生成器进行条件调节,调整表格式数据输入并接收附加信息,从而根据指定的类条件生成样本。新的平衡数据被用来训练17种分类算法。我们的实验表明,该方法在准确性、精度评分、f1评分和ROC等多个评价指标上都优于其他过采样方法。

Egg prices are linked to people’s livelihoods, and layer farmers face the risk of large fluctuations. The “Insurance + Futures” mode, as one of new price risk management modes, suffers from the problems of inaccurately determining insurance price and premium rate: an approach that overcomes these problems by proposing a mode based on the autoregressive neural network(AR-Net) model is proposed. This study uses the data pertaining to China’s egg futures closing prices from November 2013 to March 2021 for analysis, a dataset of 1756 samples can be obtained from theWind database. The improved egg price risk management mode presented herein comprises three stages. Firstly, compared with the statistical models (Autoregressive model, ARIMA model, Monte Carlo simulation) and neural network model (Back propagation (BP) model, convolutional neural network (CNN) model), the AR-Net model improves the accuracy of insurance price forecast by its seasonal trend coefficients. Secondly, the AR-Net model is used for rolling forecasts of insurance price and premium rate during the insurance period. Scenario simulations predict that the new mode offers better risk management. Thirdly, the result of robustness analysis by value at risk-generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity(VaR-GARCH) model implies that the AR-Net model can improve the management of risk.
鸡蛋价格与人们的生计息息相关,蛋农面临着大幅波动的风险。“保险+期货”模式作为一种新型的价格风险管理模式,存在保险价格和保险费率确定不准确的问题,提出了一种基于自回归神经网络(AR-Net)模型的模式来克服这些问题。本研究使用2013年11月至2021年3月的中国鸡蛋期货收盘价格数据进行分析,从wind数据库获得1756个样本的数据集。本文提出的改进的鸡蛋价格风险管理模式包括三个阶段。首先,与统计模型(Autoregressive模型、ARIMA模型、Monte Carlo模拟)和神经网络模型(Back propagation (BP)模型、卷积神经网络(CNN)模型)相比,AR-Net模型通过季节趋势系数提高了保险价格预测的准确性。其次,利用AR-Net模型对保险期间的保险价格和保险费率进行滚动预测。情景模拟预测,新模式提供了更好的风险管理。第三,风险值广义自回归条件异方差(VaR-GARCH)模型的稳健性分析结果表明AR-Net模型可以改善风险管理。

Thirdly, the result of robustness analysis by value at risk-generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity(VaR-GARCH) model implies that the AR-Net model can improve the management of risk.","PeriodicalId":49933,"journal":{"name":"Kuwait Journal of Science & Engineering","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87292667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the last few decades, Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has been a centre of attraction in many research domains, and it is referred to as the potential of interpreting human body gestures through sensors and ascertaining the activity of a human being. The present work has proposed the voting classifier system for human activity recognition. For the voting classifier system, five machine learning classifiers are considered: Logistic Regression (LR), K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN), Random Forest (RF), Naive Bayes (NB), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). These machine learning classifiers are ensembled by analyzing the best performers among them. The ensemble voting classifiers are proposed under two variations, i.e., hard voting and soft voting. The various combinations of voting classifiers are compared and evaluated. For experiments, the benchmark dataset of the UCI-HAR dataset is considered, and all the data files are combined into a single file to avoid bias. The dimensionality of the dataset is reduced by using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) from 561 features to 200 components. The results reveal that Voting Classifier-II (a combination of SVM, KNN, and LR) using soft voting outperformed other machine learning classifiers.
在过去的几十年里,人类活动识别(HAR)已经成为许多研究领域的一个吸引人的中心,它被称为通过传感器解释人体手势和确定人类活动的潜力。本文提出了一种用于人体活动识别的投票分类器系统。对于投票分类器系统,考虑了五种机器学习分类器:逻辑回归(LR), k近邻(KNN),随机森林(RF),朴素贝叶斯(NB)和支持向量机(SVM)。这些机器学习分类器通过分析其中表现最好的分类器来集成。提出了硬投票和软投票两种类型的集成投票分类器。对投票分类器的各种组合进行了比较和评价。在实验中,考虑了UCI-HAR数据集的基准数据集,并将所有数据文件合并为一个文件,以避免偏差。通过主成分分析(PCA)将数据集的维数从561个特征降至200个特征。结果表明,使用软投票的投票分类器- ii(支持向量机,KNN和LR的组合)优于其他机器学习分类器。

A predictive analytics framework for opportunity sensing in stock market 股票市场机会感知的预测分析框架
Pub Date : 2022-06-22 DOI: 10.48129/kjs.splml.18993

Large volume, random fluctuations and distractive patterns in raw price data lead to overfitting in stock price prediction. Thus research papers in this area suffer from multiple limitations: Very short prediction period from one day to one week, consideration of few stocks only instead of whole of stock market spectrum, exploration of more suitable machine learning algorithms. By overcoming the problems of raw data these limitations can be conquered. Proposed work uses a supervised machine learning approach on statistically learned macro features obtained from gist of input data, free from raw data drawbacks, to predict the price band for the upcoming month and a half for almost all NIFTY50 stocks. The predicted bands are tested for precision in comparison with actual stock price bands. Motivating outcomes so obtained were used for automated sensing of opportunity to make buy / sell / wait decision using fuzzy logic. The results show that the price bands are quite accurate with reasonable tolerance. Monetization capability of the predicted bands has also been enhanced by using an opportunity controller k.
原始价格数据的大容量、随机波动和干扰模式导致股价预测的过拟合。因此,这一领域的研究论文受到多重限制:预测周期很短,从一天到一周,只考虑少数股票而不是整个股市频谱,探索更合适的机器学习算法。通过克服原始数据的问题,可以克服这些限制。提议的工作使用有监督的机器学习方法,对从输入数据的要点中获得的统计学习宏观特征进行学习,没有原始数据的缺点,以预测几乎所有NIFTY50股票未来一个半月的价格区间。将预测波段与实际股票价格波段进行比较,以检验其精度。所获得的激励结果用于使用模糊逻辑自动感知机会以做出买入/卖出/等待决策。结果表明,该价格区间具有较好的准确度和合理的公差。通过使用机会控制器k,预测波段的货币化能力也得到了增强。

Classifying horse activities with big data using machine learning 利用机器学习的大数据对马的活动进行分类
Pub Date : 2022-06-22 DOI: 10.48129/kjs.splml.19571

Using big data-assisted machine learning methods in animal science has received increasing attention in recent years since they extract useful insights from large-scale animal datasets. Especially, animal activity recognition is the task of identifying the actions performed by animals and can provide rich insight into their health, welfare, reproduction, survival, foraging, and interaction with humans/other animals. This paper aims to propose a new solution for this purpose by building a machine learning model that classifies the actions of horses based on big sensor data. Unlike the previous studies, our study is original in that it compares the accuracies of per-subject (personalized) and cross-subject (generalized) models. It is the first study that especially compares different ensemble learning algorithms for horse activity recognition in terms of classification accuracy, including bagging trees, extremely randomized trees, random forest, extreme gradient boosting, light gradient boosting, gradient boosting, and categorical boosting. The purpose of the study is to classify five horse activities: walking, standing, grazing, galloping, and trotting. The experimental results showed that our solution achieved very good performance (94.62%) on average on a real-world dataset. Furthermore, the results also showed that our method outperformed the state-of-the-art methods on the same dataset.
近年来,在动物科学中使用大数据辅助机器学习方法越来越受到关注,因为它们可以从大规模动物数据集中提取有用的见解。特别是,动物活动识别是识别动物行为的任务,可以为它们的健康、福利、繁殖、生存、觅食以及与人类/其他动物的互动提供丰富的见解。本文旨在通过构建一个基于大传感器数据对马的动作进行分类的机器学习模型,为此提出一种新的解决方案。与之前的研究不同,我们的研究是原创的,因为它比较了每个主题(个性化)和跨主题(广义)模型的准确性。这是第一个在分类精度方面特别比较不同的马活动识别集成学习算法的研究,包括bagging树、极度随机树、随机森林、极端梯度增强、轻梯度增强、梯度增强和分类增强。这项研究的目的是对五种马的活动进行分类:走路、站立、吃草、飞奔和小跑。实验结果表明,我们的解决方案在真实数据集上取得了非常好的平均性能(94.62%)。此外,结果还表明,我们的方法在相同的数据集上优于最先进的方法。
