Deep learning for search
\"Deep learning handles the toughest search challenges, including imprecise search terms, badly indexed data, and retrieving images with minimal metadata. And with modern tools like DL4J and TensorFlow, you can apply powerful DL techniques without a deep background in data science or natural language processing (NLP). This book will show you how. \"Deep learning for search\" teaches you to improve your search results with neural networks. You'll review how DL relates to search basics like indexing and ranking. Then, you'll walk through in-depth examples to upgrade your search with DL techniques using Apache Lucene and Deeplearning4j. As the book progresses, you'll explore advanced topics like searching through images, translating user queries, and designing search engines that improve as they learn!\"-- Provided by publisher.

On the Integration of In Silico Drug Design Methods for Drug Repurposing
Drug repurposing has become an important branch of drug discovery. Several computational approaches that help to uncover new repurposing opportunities and aid the discovery process have been put forward, or adapted from previous applications. A number of successful examples are now available. Overall, future developments will greatly benefit from integration of different methods, approaches and disciplines. Steps forward in this direction are expected to help to clarify, and therefore to rationally predict, new drug-target, target-disease, and ultimately drug-disease associations.

Machine learning prediction and optimization of compressive strength for blended concrete by applying ANN and genetic algorithm
Before using concrete for a particular purpose, its strength must be determined because its physical properties vary depending on the type of supplementary cementitious material (SCMs). Initially, researchers anticipated it with statistical processes; more recently, they started implementing deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) models. This research employed ensemble machine learning (EML) approaches to predict the compressive strength (CS) of concrete developed for ground-granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) along with Alccofine 1203 (AF). Ensemble regressions of Random Forest Regression (RFR) and AdaBoost Regression (ABR) were considered for model prediction using the Jupyter Notebook. The models were created based on the outcome of the compressive strength under the 90 experimental conditions. Moreover, a comparative study was performed between the RFR and ABR to benchmark the proposed model against a given combination of features and CS. The experimental conditions were optimized using a genetic algorithm (GA) after the model was created by ANN. With the two EML algorithms, the smallest errors, along with the largest coefficient of determination, were observed in the RFR algorithm. It was recognized that the optimized value of CS is 48.606 MPa, and their optimized process elements such as cement, alccofine, GGBS, water, and days were 261.506 kg/m

Computational trust models and machine learning
\"This book provides an introduction to computational trust models from a machine learning perspective. After reviewing traditional computational trust models, it discusses a new trend of applying formerly unused machine learning methodologies, such as supervised learning. The application of various learning algorithms, such as linear regression, matrix decomposition, and decision trees, illustrates how to translate the trust modeling problem into a (supervised) learning problem. The book also shows how novel machine learning techniques can improve the accuracy of trust assessment compared to traditional approaches\"-- Provided by publisher.

Complex competencies for leader education: artificial intelligence analysis in student achievement profiling
Future education requires fostering high-level competencies to enhance student talent, and artificial intelligence (AI) can help in profile analysis. The aim was to determine the variables that predict the GPA of students in the 'Leaders of Tomorrow' program through an integrated methodology of data analytics, machine learning modeling, and feature engineering in order to generate knowledge about the application of AI in social impact programs. This research focused on 466 graduates of a 'Leaders of Tomorrow'. A regression analysis was performed to model the relationship between the dependent variable and multiple independent variables. The findings revealed: (a) Analysis of variance (ANOVA) demonstrated exceptional model fit for predicting 'student.term_Grade Academic Performance (GPA)_program' with an R-squared of 0.999; (b) Visual analysis showed that significant variables like age and origin-school Grade-Point Average (GPA) affect term GPA; (c) Kendall tau correlation revealed a positive correlation of origin-school GPA with term GPA and a slightly negative one with age; (d) Support Vector Machine (SVM) regression aligned actual and predicted GPAs closely, indicating high accuracy; and (e) Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) identified 'student_originSchool.gpa' as the most predictive feature. This study is intended to be of value to academic communities interested in enhancing the academic profiles of students with complex competencies, as well as communities interested in applying AI in education for predictions that contribute to trajectories for training.

Alternative cancer therapy through modeling pteridines photosensitizer quantum yield singlet oxygen production using swarm-based support vector regression and extreme learning machine
Photodynamic cancer therapy circumvents the major side effects associated with the conventional cancer treatment methods, such as chemotherapy, surgery and exposure to radiation. Experimental measurement of photosensitizer quantum yield (PQY) singlet production of oxygen through either sensitive laser spectroscopy or luminescence detection at the wavelength of 1270 nm is costly; time consuming and intensive while unreliability of chemical traps experimental approach is of serious concern. Quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) computational method proposed in the literature for computing PQY of singlet oxygen production has characteristics deviation from the measured values. PQY singlet oxygen production of twenty-nine pteridines photosensitizer compounds is modeled and predicted in this present contribution using extreme learning machine (ELM) and support vector regression (SVR) with hybridized particle swarm optimization (PSO) method for ensuring combinatory parameter selection. The performances of the developed SVR-PSO computational method are assessed using mean absolute error (MAE), correlation coefficient (CC), root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage deviation (MAPD). The developed SVR-PSO model outperforms QSAR (2016) model with performance superiority of 34.78%, 3.65%, 17.64% and 42.16% on the basis of RMSE, CC, MAE and MAPD performance measuring parameters, respectively. The developed ELM-SINE (with sine activation function) and ELM-SIG (with sigmoid activation function) respectively outperform the existing QSAR (2016) model with improvement of 6.54% and 4.70% using R-squared metric. The demonstrated outstanding performance of the present predictive models is immensely meritorious in strengthening the potentials of alternative cancer therapy and circumventing the experimental challenges of PQY singlet oxygen production determination.

A Cautionary Tale for Machine Learning Design: why we Still Need Human-Assisted Big Data Analysis
Supervised Machine Learning (ML) requires that smart algorithms scrutinize a very large number of labeled samples before they can make right predictions. And this is not always true either. In our experience, in fact, a neural network trained with a huge database comprised of over fifteen million water meter readings had essentially failed to predict when a meter would malfunction/need disassembly based on a history of water consumption measurements. With a second step, we developed a methodology, based on the enforcement of a specialized data semantics, that allowed us to extract only those samples for training that were not noised by data impurities. With this methodology, we re-trained the neural network up to a prediction accuracy of over 80%. Yet, we simultaneously realized that the new training dataset was significantly different from the initial one in statistical terms, and much smaller, as well. We had reached a sort of paradox: We had alleviated the initial problem with a better interpretable model, but we had changed the replicated form of the initial data. To reconcile that paradox, we further enhanced our data semantics with the contribution of field experts. This has finally led to the extrapolation of a training dataset truly representative of regular/defective water meters and able to describe the underlying statistical phenomenon, while still providing an excellent prediction accuracy of the resulting classifier. At the end of this path, the lesson we have learnt is that a human-in-the-loop approach may significantly help to clean and re-organize noised datasets for an empowered ML design experience.

Design of oscillatory neural networks by machine learning
We demonstrate the utility of machine learning algorithms for the design of oscillatory neural networks (ONNs). After constructing a circuit model of the oscillators in a machine-learning-enabled simulator and performing Backpropagation through time (BPTT) for determining the coupling resistances between the ring oscillators, we demonstrate the design of associative memories and multi-layered ONN classifiers. The machine-learning-designed ONNs show superior performance compared to other design methods (such as Hebbian learning), and they also enable significant simplifications in the circuit topology. We also demonstrate the design of multi-layered ONNs that show superior performance compared to single-layer ones. We argue that machine learning can be a valuable tool to unlock the true computing potential of ONNs hardware.

Recommender systems applied to the tourism industry: a literature review
Recommender systems -RS- have experienced exponential growth in various fields, especially in the tourism sector, improving tourism activities’ accuracy, personalization, and experience, thus strengthening indicators such as promotion. However, some challenges and opportunities exist to overcome, such as the lack of data on emerging destinations wishing to adopt these solutions. This manuscript presents a literature review of the current trends in RS applied to the tourism industry, including categories associated with their use and emerging techniques. Likewise, it presents a pathway for implementing an RS when insufficient data are available for a destination. The SLR followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and used the WoS, Science Direct, and Scopus databases. The results show that the hybrid RS integrates deep learning algorithms, data analytics, and optimisation techniques with collaborative tourism features to provide innovative solutions in terms of performance, accuracy, and personalisation of recommendations, thus achieving the management of tourist destinations or tourism-oriented services. Emerging destinations that lack RS data in tourism should use various data sources generated by tourists on social media, tourism portals, and through their interaction with tour operators. New tourism recommender system solutions can emerge following trends integrating new technologies based on user experience, collaboration, and the integration of multiple data sources.
