Abstract

Ethereum and its native cryptocurrency, Ether, have played a worthy attention in the development of the blockchain and cryptocurrency space. Its programmability and smart contract capabilities have made it a foundational platform for decentralized applications and innovations across various industries. Because of its anonymous and decentralized structure, the hotheaded expansion of cryptocurrencies in the payment space has created both enormous potential and concerns related to cybercrime, including money laundering, financing terrorism, illegal and dangerous services. As more financial institutions attempt to integrate cryptocurrencies into their networks, there is an increasing need to create a more transparent network that can withstand these kinds of attacks. In this work, we are using different classification techniques, such as logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), adaptive boosting (AdaBoost), and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) for Ethereum fraud detection. The dataset we are using includes rows of legitimate transactions done using the cryptocurrency Ethereum as well as known fraudulent transactions. The “XGBoost” model, which is noteworthy, detects variations that might attract notice and prevent potential issues in this chore.

Abstract

Speech digit recognition research is growing decisively, and a bulk of digit recognition algorithms are used in European and a few Asian languages. Kui is a low-resourced tribal language locally used in several states of India. Despite its significance, there is not much research on Kui's speech. This research aims to present an in-depth analysis of novel Kui digit recognition using predefined machine learning (ML) techniques. For this purpose, we first gathered spoken numbers i.e. from 0 to 9 of eight different speakers containing a total of 200 words. Secondly, we choose the numbers: ଶୂନ (zero), ଏକ (one), ଦୁଇ (two), ତିନି(three), ସାରି(four), ପାସ (five), ସଅ (six), ସାତ (seven), ଆଟ (eight), ନଅ (nine). Meanwhile, we build nine different ML models to recognize Kui digits that take the Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) method to extract the relevant features for model predictions. Finally, we compared the performance of ML models for both augmented and non-augmented Kui data. The result shows that the SVM+Augmentation method for Kui digit recognition combined obtained the highest accuracy of 83% than other methods. Moreover, the difficulties and potential prospects for Kui digit recognition are also highlighted in this work.

Abstract

The behavior of the Bitcoin market is dynamic and erratic, impacted by a range of elements including news developments and investor mood. One well-known aspect of bitcoin is its extreme volatility. This study uses both conventional econometric techniques and deep learning algorithms to anticipate the volatility of Bitcoin returns. The research is based on historical Bitcoin price data spanning October 2014 to February 2022, which was obtained using the Yahoo Finance API. In this work, we contrast the efficacy of generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) and threshold ARCH (TARCH) models with long short-term memory (LSTM), bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM), and multivariate Bi-LSTM models. Model effectiveness is evaluated by means of root mean squared error (RMSE) and root mean squared percentage error (RMSPE) scores. The multivariate Bi-LSTM model emerges as mostly effective, achieving an RMSE score of 0.0425 and an RMSPE score of 0.1106. This comparative scrutiny contributes to understanding the dynamics of Bitcoin volatility prediction, offering insights that can inform investment strategies and risk management practices in this quickly changing environment of finance.

Abstract

Blockchain technology is the foundation of cryptocurrencies, which are virtual currencies. The decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies has resulted in a significant reduction of central authority over them, which has implications for global trade and relations. The need for an effective model to anticipate the price of cryptocurrencies is essential due to their wide variations in value. Due to the shortcomings of conventional production forecasting, in this work, four distinct models were used. The deep learning models are the long short-term memory (LSTM) and bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM), and both the Facebook-Prophet and Silverkite support the exponential smoothing technique. Silverkite is designed to handle a wide range of time series forecasting tasks. Considering past bitcoin information from January 2012 to March 2021, a period of nine years, we looked at the models. The Bi-LSTM model yields a 7.073 mean absolute error (MAE) and a 3.639 root mean squared error (RMSE). The Bi-LSTM model identifies the deviations that might draw attention and avert any problems.

Abstract

A digital currency known as a cryptocurrency uses blockchain technology to record transactions electronically, guaranteeing security and transparency. Cryptocurrencies, in contrast to conventional hard currency, are virtual or soft currencies; that do not exist in the actual world like coins or banknotes. Since all transactions occur digitally, cryptocurrencies are decentralized and frequently stand-alone from conventional financial institutions. Peer-to-peer transfers, increased anonymity, and often quicker transaction processing without middlemen are made possible by this. In this study, two machine learning models; autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and two deep learning models; long short-term memory (LSTM), bidirectional LSTM (Bi-LSTM) were compared. By employing past Bitcoin data from 2012 to 2020, we evaluated the models' mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean squared error (RMSE). Compared to other models, the Bi-LSTM model yields minimal RMSE scores of 67.18 and MAE scores of 24.73. This aids in capturing all temporal correlations, which are important for forecasting the price of Bitcoin.
