Greetings to everyone! I had a small question. I'm currently trying to do my bachelor's thesis with a title called "Estimation of the wind potential through the computational intelligence tool for the production of electrical energy in the district of Ocucaje, Ica". I really wanted to combine wind energy and IA in one thesis but I'm kind of stuck right now. The region of Ica as a whole (Ocucaje city is part of the region of Ica) already has a wind potential estimation made by the government in 2016. So I'm unsure if I'm repeating the same thing as the government did or not, should I shape my title differently or add any other thing? I would appreciate any comments. Have a good day
Relevant answer
Answer
Given that the government has already made a wind potential estimation for the region of Ica, you may want to consider focusing on a more specific area within Ocucaje, or looking at a different aspect of wind energy production that hasn't been fully explored yet. For example, you could examine the optimal placement of wind turbines in the district of Ocucaje using computational intelligence techniques, or investigate the feasibility of using wind energy to power a specific industry or application in the area.
Another option could be to focus on the application of computational intelligence tools to optimize the performance of existing wind turbines in the region, which could be a valuable contribution to the field. This could involve developing a machine learning model to predict wind speed and direction, and using this information to adjust the pitch of the turbine blades for optimal energy production.

As part of ongoing technological advances and continually improving, could artificial intelligence equipped with new Big Data analytics solutions and full access to data on the Internet be equipped in future with solutions for self-learning and self-improvement and perhaps also with a kind of artificial consciousness and therefore ultimately prove to be more intelligent than humans?
Year after year, microprocessors will be developed to process ever faster and ever larger data sets. More and more perfect artificial intelligence solutions will also be built, and successive generations of artificial intelligence will be created, e.g. much more perfect than what is currently offered, for example, by the technology on which ChatGPT was developed, which is offered on the Internet in open access. However, the ever-increasing computational capabilities of ICT information technology and the ever-larger, multi-terabyte datasets that can be efficiently processed do not yet ensure the success of a specific, highly intelligent outcome. An important issue is the use of increasingly sophisticated, multi-criteria, complex analytical models, including models composed of multiple algorithms and equipped with the capacity for self-learning and self-improvement using large amounts of data and information retrieved from, for example, the Internet. But it cannot be ruled out that perhaps in the future, a constantly improved artificial intelligence equipped with new Big Data Analytics solutions and full access to data on the Internet may prove to be more intelligent, but it will not be smarter than humans even if it is equipped with a kind of artificial awareness in the future. Perhaps citizens will receive on their smartphones in the future a kind of much more enhanced personal advisors than those currently in use, who will provide highly professional answers to the various questions asked by smartphone users on the basis of data available on the Internet and processed in real time on the Big Data Analytics platform and on the basis of the new generations of machine learning, deep learning and artificial intelligence technology used in these automated advisory solutions. And beyond that, whether such solutions can significantly deepen the issue of new cybercrime techniques and new cyber security systems.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
Within the framework of the technological advances that are taking place and which are constantly being improved, could artificial intelligence equipped with new Big Data Analytics solutions and full access to data on the Internet in the future be equipped with solutions for self-learning and self-improvement and perhaps also with a kind of artificial consciousness and therefore ultimately prove to be more intelligent than humans?

Now my articles on electronic medicine have been read by 203 readers. This confirms the relevance of the development of this area of science and practice. The Eidos universal intelligent system has 55 operating modes, not counting the Exit mode. Any mistake you make will bring the system to a halt or you will get wrong results. If, without explanation, you begin to study several operating modes of the system per day, then in order to learn how to work in the Eidos system, you will need to spend more than a month. I appreciate your time, so I posted my lectures on the site. And he did it almost for free. For one lecture, the professor receives about $50. Compare this to the cost of a monthly subscription to https://www.patreon.com/user?u=87599532. And you will be pleasantly surprised. The best investment you can make is an investment in education.

Hi,
Does anyone know how to get rid of wicked production editors of Hindawi, especially those who take care of the journal "computational intelligence and neuroscience". A manuscript was accepted and APC was made some 4 months ago, since then nothing was shown by them.
Also, does anyone know how to contact Hindawi for a complaint? I have contacted academic editors, production editors, research integrity specialists, help, journal, press, and all of the attempts in these 4 months have gone unfruitful.

Answer
Prestigious might be a bit too strong but Hindawi is more and more considered as a well-established publisher dedicated to open access publishing. Their partnership with Wiley (for numerous titles) is a good sign as well https://www.hindawi.com/publishing-partnerships/wiley-hindawi-publishing-partnership/
The journal “Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience” has some comforting quality features:
-Scopus indexed, CiteScore 3.900
-SCIE indexed, IF 3.100
-PubMed indexed and included in EI Compendex
Personally, I find the APC (at least without a possible waiver) somewhat too high but apart from that this journal is a pretty good and safe choice and worthwhile to publish in.

In general, a heuristic might be suitable when an exact algorithm cannot easily solve a problem. Heuristics have increased in popularity because the problems we want to solve become more complex as time passes.

Suppose I have a network with 32x128x256x64. For example there are two kernels out of 256 at the third layer, to learn some features.
My main question: Is it possible for these two kernels to learn the same (or nearly similar) feature while being on the same layer?
Questions:
- If yes to the above question, is there any way to avoid this, and what is the method?
- if yes, Is it possible to use eigen value or any other decomposition method to retain only independent signals (kernels) and discard the similar ones?
Relevant answer
Answer
Stochastic gradient-descent algorithm can lead multiple kernels to converge to similar values while the optimal solution may require different values for them. You can only hope using random initialization and drop-out will reduce the likelihood.

Recently, several works have been published on predictive analytics:
Besides, there is a paper on how to discover a process model using neural networks:
My questions for this discussion are:
  • It seems, that the field for machine learning approaches in process mining in not limited to predictions/discovery. Can we formulate the areas of possible applications?
  • Can we use process mining techniques in machine learning? Can we, for example, mine how neural networks learn (in order to better understand their predictions)?
  • If you believe that the subjects are completely incompatible, then, please, share your argument. Why do you think so?
  • Finally, please, share known papers in which: process mining (PM) is applied in machine learning (ML) research, ML is applied in PM research, both PM and ML are applied to solve a problem. I believe, this will be useful for any reader of this discussion.
Relevant answer
Answer
There are actually quite a lot of nice application of machine learning techniques in the context of business process variant analysis, which is a fairly large subset of the process mining literature.
For example, Folino, Cuzzocrea et al. have done a series of studies on variant analysis (or deviance mining) using various machine learning methods, including ensemble learning and clustering:
We recently conducted a literature survey of methods in the field of variant analysis, many of them based on machine learning techniques:
Related to the above, there is work on bayesian networks for delay analysis (explanatory rather than predictive):
The above is related to variant analysis and performance mining. But there is also work on anomaly detection in event logs using bayesian networks:
And using deep learning architectures:
As well as using deep learning models to compute alignments in order to correct anomalies:
And a bit related to the above, there was quite a bit of research on using trace clustering in the context of automated process discovery (e.g. Jochen De Weerdt)
So we can say that process mining and machine learning go well together. One should not forget though that BPM and process mining are application-oriented disciplines - their objective is to design approaches to improve business processes. Whereas machine learning is a horizontal discipline, it seeks to develop methods that can be adapted to a broad range of problems/settings. Process mining has tapped a lot into machine learning, but sure it has a lot more to exploit from it.

I think you need to narrow very much your search space. Are you interested in image or video processing, signals, networks, big data, cloud, modeling and simulation, high performance computing, etc? It is better to build on your experience and your interest. I can recommend some examples if you are interested in image and video processing, as these are my fields of interest.

hey all, I am working for building a firewall for prevention of SQL Injection in website. I am planning this through artificial neural network. need your comments and suggestions on this.
if anybody is working on similar then guidance is needed..
thanks in advance
Chetan
Relevant answer
Answer
For building a firewall for detection of SQL injection, you model based on neural netowrk (NN) must go through two phases. The former one, is to train the NN with a dataset that contains SQL injection attacks, so NN will build the model or profile of those attacks; it is able to learn and then recognize novel attacks as it have a high capability of generalization. The last phase, it is evaluation of your firewall; after NN leans, you firewall based NN be able to distinguish SQL injection attacks from normal SQL queries.
So, try to find a dataset that contains both SQL injection attacks and normal SQL queries, then divide this dataset in two parts, 70% of that database wil serves as training dataset and the 30% of that database will be used as testing dataset.
good luck.

There are many different kinds of soft computing methods used for identification of complex system including robotic manipulators and mechatronic systems. But for making an intelligent choice to extract the best dynamic of under study systems, we will not be successful to model them very well.
Relevant answer
Answer
Nonlinear system modeling has attracted great attention in engineering sciences as well in many other fields such as meteorology, economics, biology, etc. This is simply due to two main reasons. First, the presence of nonlinear phenomena in most physical systems is rather the rule than the exception. Second, nonlinear system analysis and control can only be achieved if the mathematical model of the system is known . This model can be constructed using the physical modeling approach which leads to the white box models. This approach consists in decomposing the considered system in different parts (electrical part, mechanical part, heat conduction part, etc.) and then applying the appropriate first principles that govern each part. This approach can clearly be very complex since it requires detailed specialist knowledge in many different domains of science. In addition, the first principle models are often non linear and non stationary and consequently the obtained models are too complex for most practical purposes. System identification represents an interesting solution of constructing models, known as black box models, since it allows to overcome most of these problems. Furthermore, it can be applied to all physical systems. This approach consists in constructing mathematical models from observed input and output data based on five main steps : data collection, model class selection, model structure estimation , model. parameter estimation and model validation. The model class selection represents the corner stone toward the objective of nonlinear system identification because the model accuracy depends on the used model class. Numerous classes have been proposed in the literature for nonlinear black-box models such as Volterra models, NARMAX (Nonlinear AutoRegressive Moving Average model with eXogenous inputs models), nonlinear state space, block-oriented models structures, etc. All of these models are able to approximate any nonlinear system with arbitrary accuracy. The choice of the best class depends on the model purposes : emulation, prediction, simulation, controller design, fault detection, etc. For control purpose for example, a mathematical model must ensure a compromise between accuracy, model extraction cost and parametric simplicity of model in order to ensure the implementation of the controller.

What is relation between Machine Intelligence and Smart Networks?
Relevant answer
Answer
Artificial Intelligence has been around for a long time – the Greek myths contain stories of mechanical men designed to mimic our own behavior. Very early European computers were conceived as “logical machines” and by reproducing capabilities such as basic arithmetic and memory, engineers saw their job, fundamentally, as attempting to create mechanical brains.
As technology, and, importantly, our understanding of how our minds work, has progressed, our concept of what constitutes AI has changed. Rather than increasingly complex calculations, work in the field of AI concentrated on mimicking human decision making processes and carrying out tasks in ever more human ways.
Artificial Intelligences – devices designed to act intelligently – are often classified into one of two fundamental groups – applied or general. Applied AI is far more common – systems designed to intelligently trade stocks and shares, or manoeuvre an autonomous vehicle would fall into this category.
Neural Networks – Artificial Intelligence And Machine [+]
Generalized AIs – systems or devices which can in theory handle any task – are less common, but this is where some of the most exciting advancements are happening today. It is also the area that has led to the development of Machine Learning. Often referred to as a subset of AI, it’s really more accurate to think of it as the current state-of-the-art.
The Rise of Machine Learning
Two important breakthroughs led to the emergence of Machine Learning as the vehicle which is driving AI development forward with the speed it currently has.
One of these was the realization – credited to Arthur Samuel in 1959 – that rather than teaching computers everything they need to know about the world and how to carry out tasks, it might be possible to teach them to learn for themselves.
The second, more recently, was the emergence of the internet, and the huge increase in the amount of digital information being generated, stored, and made available for analysis.
Once these innovations were in place, engineers realized that rather than teaching computers and machines how to do everything, it would be far more efficient to code them to think like human beings, and then plug them into the internet to give them access to all of the information in the world.
Neural Networks
The development of neural networks has been key to teaching computers to think and understand the world in the way we do, while retaining the innate advantages they hold over us such as speed, accuracy and lack of bias.
A Neural Network is a computer system designed to work by classifying information in the same way a human brain does. It can be taught to recognize, for example, images, and classify them according to elements they contain.
Essentially it works on a system of probability – based on data fed to it, it is able to make statements, decisions or predictions with a degree of certainty. The addition of a feedback loop enables “learning” – by sensing or being told whether its decisions are right or wrong, it modifies the approach it takes in the future.
Machine Learning applications can read text and work out whether the person who wrote it is making a complaint or offering congratulations. They can also listen to a piece of music, decide whether it is likely to make someone happy or sad, and find other pieces of music to match the mood. In some cases, they can even compose their own music expressing the same themes, or which they know is likely to be appreciated by the admirers of the original piece.
These are all possibilities offered by systems based around ML and neural networks. Thanks in no small part to science fiction, the idea has also emerged that we should be able to communicate and interact with electronic devices and digital information, as naturally as we would with another human being. To this end, another field of AI – Natural Language Processing (NLP) – has become a source of hugely exciting innovation in recent years, and one which is heavily reliant on ML.
NLP applications attempt to understand natural human communication, either written or spoken, and communicate in return with us using similar, natural language. ML is used here to help machines understand the vast nuances in human language, and to learn to respond in a way that a particular audience is likely to comprehend.
A Case Of Branding?
Artificial Intelligence – and in particular today ML certainly has a lot to offer. With its promise of automating mundane tasks as well as offering creative insight, industries in every sector from banking to healthcare and manufacturing are reaping the benefits. So, it’s important to bear in mind that AI and ML are something else … they are products which are being sold – consistently, and lucratively.
Machine Learning has certainly been seized as an opportunity by marketers. After AI has been around for so long, it’s possible that it started to be seen as something that’s in some way “old hat” even before its potential has ever truly been achieved. There have been a few false starts along the road to the “AI revolution”, and the term Machine Learning certainly gives marketers something new, shiny and, importantly, firmly grounded in the here-and-now, to offer.
The fact that we will eventually develop human-like AI has often been treated as something of an inevitability by technologists. Certainly, today we are closer than ever and we are moving towards that goal with increasing speed. Much of the exciting progress that we have seen in recent years is thanks to the fundamental changes in how we envisage AI working, which have been brought about by ML. I hope this piece has helped a few people understand the distinction between AI and ML. In my next piece on this subject I go deeper – literally – as I explain the theories behind another trending buzzword – Deep Learning.

The stackoverflow section above misses the point. TF/IDF LSA and many similar techniques rely on statistical properties of language. These properties only emerge in the large - so an argument based on keyword matching over two documents is a spurious argument for these techniques. 
So really one of the key shortages and limitation of TF/IDF and the many improved variants is that they will only work well if you have a large document collection to deal with.

Dear Colleagues,
We are organizing a session at the 2017 Fall AGU meeting, titled: " Applications of machine learning and novel statistical approaches to the study of weather and climate using large datasets" by Jiali Wang, Paul Loikith, Won Chang, and  Roman Olson.
The motivation and goals of the session are described below. 
“The increasing volume of climate data from observations, analysis products, and climate model output presents the climate science community with unprecedented data analysis challenges and opportunities. This challenge becomes greater when targeting extreme events as standard data reduction techniques like multi-model ensemble averaging reduce the magnitude of extremes. To address this, several sophisticated statistical and machine learning algorithms have been developed and applied to distill critical information from this growing trove of climate data. This session invites speakers that develop and/or apply machine learning or related novel statistical techniques to mine climate data for the study of climate projection, climate/weather extreme events, and more.”
We hope that you are interested in submitting an abstract to this session.

I'm modelling a small amount of data and the performance plot shows that the data is clearly overfitting. It's a prediction problem and i'm using a back propagation neural network. The input data is divided across different binary systems. I was thinking about combining the systems and model the data since neural network performance generally increases with increase in amount of data but on the other hand, modelling the systems individually will bring a more direct relationship for the given pair of data since each system have their own  properties.  The regression plot i obtained showed showed a very good agreement between output and target data with R values of 1.  Though the performance plot showed that the test curve increased significantly before the validation curve increased which is a clear sign of overfitting. Even after initializing the weights i still observed the same trend. So i was looking for ways to improve the network performance. 
If the regression value is 1 for the test set do i need to decrease the fraction of the Training and Validation set to find out the limit when the results on the test set start getting below some target (e.g. 0.995)?

Answer
At a macro level the various competitions that invite researchers to submit machine learning solutions for a common problem address the effective comparison of different methods. With each competition, it is hoped that there is enough variety of techniques that a valid enough comparison has been made. Of course, it may be that only popular, quick or easy techniques are used within the various solutions but any other approach requires a research team to spend a very long time trying every possible combination of meta parameter, technique and data feature.  While competitions don't directly address your question about computation time, in a sense they do answer it indirectly in that the various submissions have addressed the same problem within the same timeframe.
Computation time is a factor in my own work and what I have learnt to do is to test ideas using smaller models and then once I think that I have found a reasonable set of circumstances then (sometimes) I scale up, looking for a more optimal solution. However, mostly I am disinterested in proving that one technique is the "best" and more interested in showing that a particular technique works well enough to be usable. This, however, reflects my own research aims and is not intended to be a criticism of researchers who do want to try to prove that their technique is better than someone else's.

I would like to learn how Artificial intelligence methods such as rule-based system are used in document summarization.
Relevant answer
Answer
In AI, the rules are generally learned.  In general, AI without "learning" collapsed as a field of study and was in some cases such as Terry Winograd explicitly renounced.  Furthermore, most symbolic AI researchers only criticized Perceptrons, not the concept of learning itself - but they found it difficult to learn by purely symbolic means.   
Today most of what we think of as "rule-based AI" survives as Bayesian Networks, which start from a graph that captures the joint-probability relationships between entities.   The fact that we will typically start with a graph that is not fully connected represents the injection of human prior beliefs which are "rule-like."   In its most naive form, this has the drawback that a link initially omitted can never spontaneously generate other than by human intervention.
Exposure to repeated cases can be used to refine the probabilities, and today there are "pretty good" algorithms for learning Bayesian networks.
Can these Bayesian networks and the rules they represent be created and refined purely by hand?  Yes, however, in general, it is an NP-complete problem and trying to solve such problems by hand was the general point of failure for non-learning AI projects.
So, if you insist, the rules can be crafted by hand, but if addressing large problems you may need a lot of time, and therefore first should work on problems related to (a) becoming immortal, and (b) extending the life of the universe exponentially beyond its current practical limitations.

In my artificial intelligence application, I am working in a high-dimensional space with the following metric: The set of dimensions is partitioned into domains and the distance between two points is computed by measuring the Euclidean distance with respect to each of these domains and then summing up these group-wise distances. This is basically a combination of the Euclidean (within-domain) and the Manhattan (between-domains) distances.
For my application, I need to compute the hypervolume of a hyperball in this space (i.e., the set of all points with a distance of less than r to the origin). I managed to find a formula for this hypervolume and also a mathematical proof for it. As I spent quite some time on developing this, I would like to publish my findings somewhere.
The problem is that the proof itself is not really related to artificial intelligence any more, so I highly doubt that any of the typical AI venues would publish this. It seems that this is more of a mathematical problem than anything else, but I don't know what could be an appropriate journal/conference/workshop for something like this.

Dear Dr. Babbar,
I think the need for using event classification, awareness building, situation recognition, context-driven reasoning, unsupervised learning, data-induced strategy development, adaptation planning, and knowledge mining algorithms/mechanisms is most obvious in the field of software development for smart cyber-physical systems. For instance, in our practice, an engagement monitoring and enhancing cyber-physical system solution for stroke rehabilitation or a dynamic context information-based personalized fire evacuation cyber-physical system solution could not be developed without them. As far as the development methodology is concerned, we adopted, adapted and combined algorithms from the fields of AI, HBR and AGI, but we have also developed simple and compound algorithms and mechanisms for specific 'intellectualizing' functionalities. A typical example is the overall mechanism of procedural abduction as decision making and strategy planning enabler for second generation (smart) cyber-physical systems.

Collaborative Filtering ", I did not understand the phase of its alogorithm: A = {a1, a2 ...} and B = {b1, b2 ...}, how can we generate association rules from these two sets, Knowing that I understood the rules of association and I know for example the algorithm Apriori but there I can not understand.

In the article Feature Selection Based on Mutual Information: Criteria of Max-Dependency, Max-Relevance, and Min-Redundancy (Peng, Long, Ding, 2005) in section 2.3, the theorem about equivalence of first-order incremental search for mRMR and Max-Dependency criterion is presented (using mutual information and MID).
I have created dataset (details in attachment), for which greedy algorithms mRMR and Max-Dependency select different subsets with two features. What is wrong with my example?
