Abstract

Skin disease prediction using artificial intelligence has shown great potential in improving early diagnosis and treatment outcomes. However, the presence of class imbalance within skin disease datasets poses a significant challenge for accurate prediction, particularly for rare diseases. This study proposes a novel approach to address class imbalance through data balancing using classes weighting, coupled with transfer learning techniques, to enhance the performance of skin disease prediction models. Two experiments were conducted using a tuned EfficientNetV2L based classifier. In the first experiment, a default dataset structure was utilized for training and testing. The second experiment involved employing classes weighting approach to balance the dataset. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is evaluated using the ISIC 2018 dataset, which comprises a diverse collection of skin lesion images. By assigning appropriate weights to different classes based on their prevalence, the proposed method aims to balance the representation of rare disease classes. To evaluate the performance of the proposed methodology, several performance evaluation metrics, including accuracy, precision, and recall, were employed. These findings revealed that the balanced dataset achieved enhanced generalization, mitigating the biases associated with class imbalance. As a result, the efficacy of artificial intelligence models is enhanced.

Abstract

Significant health concerns are associated with skin diseases, and accurate and timely diagnosis is essential for effective treatment and patient management. To improve the classification of cutaneous diseases, we propose a novel hybrid system that incorporates the strengths of random forest (RF) and deep neural network (DNN) algorithms. The system employs data augmentation and balancing techniques to enhance model performance and generalizability. The HAM10000 dataset of diverse dermatoscopic images is used for training and evaluation in this study. In the hybrid system proposed, the RF model provides an initial diagnosis based on patient-reported symptoms, while the DNN analyzes images of skin lesions, resulting in more precise and efficient diagnoses. Using hyper-parameter optimization, we fine-tune the system for optimal performance. The evaluation demonstrates the accuracy of the hybrid model, which achieves a classification accuracy of 96.8% overall. According to our findings, the hybrid system demonstrates exceptional efficacy in six of seven skin disease classes. Variations in sensitivity and reliance on data quality and quantity are however cited as limitations. Nevertheless, this hybrid system has the potential to revolutionize skin disease diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract

E-learning has emerged as a prominent educational method, providing accessible and flexible learning opportunities to students worldwide. This study aims to comprehensively understand and categorize learner performance on e-learning platforms, facilitating timely support and interventions for improved academic outcomes. The proposed model utilizes various classifiers (random forest (RF), neural network (NN), decision tree (DT), support vector machine (SVM), and K-nearest neighbors (KNN)) to predict learner performance and classify students into three groups: fail, pass, and withdrawn. Commencing with an analysis of two distinct learning periods based on days elapsed (≤120 days and another exceeding 220 days), the study evaluates the classifiers’ efficacy in predicting learner performance. NN (82% to 96%) and DT (81%-99.5%) consistently demonstrate robust performance across all metrics. The classifiers exhibit significant performance improvement with increased data size, suggesting the benefits of sustained engagement in the learning platform. The results highlight the importance of selecting suitable algorithms, such as DT, to accurately assess learner performance. This enables educational platforms to proactively identify at-risk students and offer personalized support. Additionally, the study highlights the significance of prolonged platform usage in enhancing learner outcomes. These insights contribute to advancing our understanding of e-learning effectiveness and inform strategies for personalized educational interventions.

Abstract

This study develops a two-axis gimbal system designed to maintain a target within its field of view by compensating for motion of either the target or the platform. The focus is on inertial stabilization platforms (ISPs), where accurate, real-time tracking is essential for applications such as surveillance, navigation, and scientific observation. The research prioritizes the design and optimization of inverse kinematics algorithms to enhance system performance. A detailed analysis of mathematical models underpins the development, addressing challenges in real-time processing with advanced optimization techniques to minimize latency and maximize accuracy. The proposed algorithms achieve a mean tracking error of 0.002 m and a mean convergence time of 2.12 seconds, surpassing traditional methods in precision and efficiency. Performance is evaluated within a simulation framework using Simscape Multibody, testing the algorithms under various conditions. Validation extends to real-world scenarios to ensure robustness and practical applicability. The results demonstrate significant improvements in tracking accuracy and responsiveness, offering a reliable solution for dynamic environments. This work paves the way for more efficient gimbal systems, contributing to advancements in technologies requiring stable and precise tracking in dynamic and challenging settings.
