Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) stands as a pervasive catalyst for illness and mortality on a global scale, underscoring the imperative for sophisticated prediction methodologies within the ambit of healthcare data analysis. The vast volume of medical data available necessitates effective data mining techniques to extract valuable insights for decision-making and prediction. While machine learning algorithms are commonly employed for CVD diagnosis and prediction, the high dimensionality of datasets poses a performance challenge. Methods: This research paper presents a novel hybrid model for predicting CVD, focusing on an optimal feature set. The proposed model encompasses four main stages namely: preprocessing, feature extraction, feature selection (FS), and classification. Initially, data preprocessing eliminates missing and duplicate values. Subsequently, feature extraction is performed to address dimensionality issues, utilizing measures such as central tendency, qualitative variation, degree of dispersion, and symmetrical uncertainty. FS is optimized using the self-improved Aquila optimization approach. Finally, a hybridized model combining long short-term memory and a quantum neural network is trained using the selected features. An algorithm is devised to optimize the LSTM model's weights. Performance evaluation of the proposed approach is conducted against existing models using specific performance measures. Results: Far dataset-1, accuracy-96.69%, sensitivity-96.62%, specifity-96.77%, precision-96.03%, recall-97.86%, F1-score-96.84%, MCC-96.37%, NPV-96.25%, FPR-3.2%, FNR-3.37% and for dataset-2, accuracy-95.54%, sensitivity-95.86%, specifity-94.51%, precision-96.03%, F1-score-96.94%, MCC-93.03%, NPV-94.66%, FPR-5.4%, FNR-4.1%. The findings of this study contribute to improved CVD prediction by utilizing an efficient hybrid model with an optimized feature set. Discussion: We have proven that our method accurately predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD) with unmatched precision by conducting extensive experiments and validating our methodology on a large dataset of patient demographics and clinical factors.

Prevalence and risk factors analysis of postpartum depression at early stage using hybrid deep learning model.

Postpartum Depression Disorder (PPDD) is a prevalent mental health condition and results in severe depression and suicide attempts in the social community. Prompt actions are crucial in tackling PPDD, which requires a quick recognition and accurate analysis of the probability factors associated with this condition. This concern requires attention. The primary aim of our research is to investigate the feasibility of anticipating an individual's mental state by categorizing individuals with depression from those without depression using a dataset consisting of text along with audio recordings from patients diagnosed with PPDD. This research proposes a hybrid PPDD framework that combines Improved Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory (IBi-LSTM) with Transfer Learning (TL) based on two Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architectures, respectively CNN-text and CNN audio. In the proposed model, the CNN section efficiently utilizes TL to obtain crucial knowledge from text and audio characteristics, whereas the improved Bi-LSTM module combines written material and sound data to obtain intricate chronological interpersonal relationships. The proposed model incorporates an attention technique to augment the effectiveness of the Bi-LSTM scheme. An experimental analysis is conducted on the PPDD online textual and speech audio dataset collected from UCI. It includes textual features such as age, women's health tracks, medical histories, demographic information, daily life metrics, psychological evaluations, and 'speech records' of PPDD patients. Data pre-processing is applied to maintain the data integrity and achieve reliable model performance. The proposed model demonstrates a great performance in better precision, recall, accuracy, and F1-score over existing deep learning models, including VGG-16, Base-CNN, and CNN-LSTM. These metrics indicate the model's ability to differentiate among women at risk of PPDD vs. non-PPDD. In addition, the feature importance analysis demonstrates that specific risk factors substantially impact the prediction of PPDD. The findings of this research establish a basis for improved precision and promptness in assessing the risk of PPDD, which may ultimately result in earlier implementation of interventions and the establishment of support networks for women who are susceptible to PPDD.

A hybrid LBP-CNN with YOLO-v5-based fire and smoke detection model in various environmental conditions for environmental sustainability in smart city.

Smart, secure, and environmentally friendly smart cities are all the rage in urban planning. Several technologies, including the Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing, are used to develop smart cities. Early and accurate fire detection in a Smart city is always desirable and motivates the research community to create a more efficient model. Deep learning models are widely used for fire detection in existing research, but they encounter several issues in typical climate environments, such as foggy and normal. The proposed model lends itself to IoT applications for authentic fire surveillance because of its minimal configuration load. A hybrid Local Binary Pattern Convolutional Neural Network (LBP-CNN) and YOLO-V5 model-based fire detection model for smart cities in the foggy scenario is presented in this research. Additionally, we recommend a two-part technique for extracting features to be applied to YOLO throughout this article. Using a transfer learning technique, the first portion of the proposed approach for extracting features retrieves standard features. The section part is for retrieval of additional valuable information related to the current activity using the LBP (Local Binary Pattern) protective layer and classifications layers. This research utilizes an online Kaggle fire and smoke dataset with 13950 normal and foggy images. The proposed hybrid model is premised on a two-cascaded YOLO model. In the initial cascade, smoke and fire are detected in the normal surrounding region, and the second cascade fire is detected with density in a foggy environment. In experimental analysis, the proposed model achieved a fire and smoke detection precision rate of 96.25% for a normal setting, 93.2% for a foggy environment, and a combined detection average precision rate of 94.59%. The proposed hybrid system outperformed existing models in terms of better precision and density detection for fire and smoke.

The patients' vocal Parkinson's disease (PD) changes could be identified early on, allowing for management before physically incapacitating symptoms appear. In this work, static as well as dynamic speech characteristics that are relevant to PD identification are examined. Speech changes or communication issues are among the challenges that Parkinson's individuals may encounter. As a result, avoiding the potential consequences of speech difficulties brought on by the condition depends on getting the appropriate diagnosis early. PD patients' speech signals change significantly from those of healthy individuals. This research presents a hybrid model utilizing improved speech signals with dynamic feature breakdown using CNN and LSTM. The proposed hybrid model employs a new, pre-trained CNN with LSTM to recognize PD in linguistic features utilizing Mel-spectrograms derived from normalized voice signal and dynamic mode decomposition. The proposed Hybrid model works in various phases, which include Noise removal, extraction of Mel-spectrograms, feature extraction using pre-trained CNN model ResNet-50, and the final stage is applied for classification. An experimental analysis was performed using the PC-GITA disease dataset. The proposed hybrid model is compared with traditional NN and well-known machine learning-based CART and SVM & XGBoost models. The accuracy level achieved in Neural Network, CART, SVM, and XGBoost models is 72.69%, 84.21%, 73.51%, and 90.81%. The results show that under these four machine approaches of tenfold cross-validation and dataset splitting without samples overlapping one individual, the proposed hybrid model achieves an accuracy of 93.51%, significantly outperforming traditional ML models utilizing static features in detecting Parkinson's disease.

Brain tumors in Magnetic resonance image segmentation is challenging research. With the advent of a new era and research into machine learning, tumor detection and segmentation generated significant interest in the research world. This research presents an efficient tumor detection and segmentation technique using an adaptive moving self-organizing map and Fuzzyk-mean clustering (AMSOM-FKM). The proposed method mainly focused on tumor segmentation using extraction of the tumor region. AMSOM is an artificial neural technique whose training is unsupervised. This research utilized the online Kaggle Brats-18 brain tumor dataset. This dataset consisted of 1691 images. The dataset was partitioned into 70% training, 20% testing, and 10% validation. The proposed model was based on various phases: (a) removal of noise, (b) selection of feature attributes, (c) image classification, and (d) tumor segmentation. At first, the MR images were normalized using the Wiener filtering method, and the Gray level co-occurrences matrix (GLCM) was used to extract the relevant feature attributes. The tumor images were separated from non-tumor images using the AMSOM classification approach. At last, the FKM was used to distinguish the tumor region from the surrounding tissue. The proposed AMSOM-FKM technique and existing methods, i.e., Fuzzy-C-means and K-mean (FMFCM), hybrid self-organization mapping-FKM, were implemented over MATLAB and compared based on comparison parameters, i.e., sensitivity, precision, accuracy, and similarity index values. The proposed technique achieved more than 10% better results than existing methods.

HIDM: Hybrid Intrusion Detection Model for Industry 4.0 Networks Using an Optimized CNN-LSTM with Transfer Learning.

Industrial automation systems are undergoing a revolutionary change with the use of Internet-connected operating equipment and the adoption of cutting-edge advanced technology such as AI, IoT, cloud computing, and deep learning within business organizations. These innovative and additional solutions are facilitating Industry 4.0. However, the emergence of these technological advances and the quality solutions that they enable will also introduce unique security challenges whose consequence needs to be identified. This research presents a hybrid intrusion detection model (HIDM) that uses OCNN-LSTM and transfer learning (TL) for Industry 4.0. The proposed model utilizes an optimized CNN by using enhanced parameters of the CNN via the grey wolf optimizer (GWO) method, which fine-tunes the CNN parameters and helps to improve the model's prediction accuracy. The transfer learning model helps to train the model, and it transfers the knowledge to the OCNN-LSTM model. The TL method enhances the training process, acquiring the necessary knowledge from the OCNN-LSTM model and utilizing it in each next cycle, which helps to improve detection accuracy. To measure the performance of the proposed model, we conducted a multi-class classification analysis on various online industrial IDS datasets, i.e., ToN-IoT and UNW-NB15. We have conducted two experiments for these two datasets, and various performance-measuring parameters, i.e., precision, F-measure, recall, accuracy, and detection rate, were calculated for the OCNN-LSTM model with and without TL and also for the CNN and LSTM models. For the ToN-IoT dataset, the OCNN-LSTM with TL model achieved a precision of 92.7%; for the UNW-NB15 dataset, the precision was 94.25%, which is higher than OCNN-LSTM without TL.

Hybrid model for precise hepatitis-C classification using improved random forest and SVM method.

Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a viral infection that causes liver inflammation. Annually, approximately 3.4 million cases of HCV are reported worldwide. A diagnosis of HCV in earlier stages helps to save lives. In the HCV review, the authors used a single ML-based prediction model in the current research, which encounters several issues, i.e., poor accuracy, data imbalance, and overfitting. This research proposed a Hybrid Predictive Model (HPM) based on an improved random forest and support vector machine to overcome existing research limitations. The proposed model improves a random forest method by adding a bootstrapping approach. The existing RF method is enhanced by adding a bootstrapping process, which helps eliminate the tree's minor features iteratively to build a strong forest. It improves the performance of the HPM model. The proposed HPM model utilizes a 'Ranker method' to rank the dataset features and applies an IRF with SVM, selecting higher-ranked feature elements to build the prediction model. This research uses the online HCV dataset from UCI to measure the proposed model's performance. The dataset is highly imbalanced; to deal with this issue, we utilized the synthetic minority over-sampling technique (SMOTE). This research performs two experiments. The first experiment is based on data splitting methods, K-fold cross-validation, and training: testing-based splitting. The proposed method achieved an accuracy of 95.89% for k = 5 and 96.29% for k = 10; for the training and testing-based split, the proposed method achieved 91.24% for 80:20 and 92.39% for 70:30, which is the best compared to the existing SVM, MARS, RF, DT, and BGLM methods. In experiment 2, the analysis is performed using feature selection (with SMOTE and without SMOTE). The proposed method achieves an accuracy of 41.541% without SMOTE and 96.82% with SMOTE-based feature selection, which is better than existing ML methods. The experimental results prove the importance of feature selection to achieve higher accuracy in HCV research.
