Calibrated Machine Learning with Temporal Leakage Controls for Rare-Event Forecasting of Port Activity Anomalies: Evidence from Selected African Countries and Indonesia

Port activity anomalies are rare but may signal operational constraints relevant to supply chains. The aim of the study was to develop and empirically evaluate a calibrated machine learning framework for forecasting rare, algorithmically de...

Improved railway track faults detection using Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient and constant-Q transform features

Abstract Regular inspection of the health of railway tracks is crucial to maintaining reliable and safe train operations. Some factors including cracks, rail discontinuity, ballast issues, burn wheels, super-elevation, loose nuts and bolts,...

PCPAm - A dataset of histopathological images of penile cancer for classification tasksZenodo

Penile cancer has an incidence strongly linked to sociocultural factors, being more common in underdeveloped countries like Brazil, where it represents approximately 2% of cancers affecting men. This dataset was created to address the scarc...

Predicting Urban Quality of Life Using Machine Learning on Street Images and Personal Information with Statistical Feature Selection: A Comparative Study of Bangkok and London

This study proposes a machine learning framework for predicting perceived urban quality of life (QoL) by integrating visual features from street-level imagery with personal attributes, including demographic, socioeconomic, and travel behavi...

Enhancing host-pathogen phenotyping dynamics: early detection of tomato bacterial diseases using hyperspectral point measurement and predictive modeling

Early diagnosis of plant diseases is needed to promote sustainable plant protection strategies. Applied predictive modeling over hyperspectral spectroscopy (HS) data can be an effective, fast, cost-effective approach for improving plant dis...

Learning-Aided Deep Path Prediction for Sphere Decoding in Large MIMO Systems

In this paper, we propose a novel learning-aided sphere decoding (SD) scheme for large multiple-input-multiple-output systems, namely, deep path prediction-based sphere decoding (DPP-SD). In this scheme, we employ a neural network (NN) to p...

Surface circulation properties in the eastern Mediterranean emphasized using machine learning methods

The eastern Mediterranean surface circulation is highly energetic and composed of structures interacting stochastically. However, some main features are still debated, and the behavior of some fine-scale dynamics and their role in shaping t...

Machine learning in materials science

Abstract Traditional methods of discovering new materials, such as the empirical trial and error method and the density functional theory (DFT)‐based method, are unable to keep pace with the development of materials science today due to the...
