Fake News Detection Using LSTM in TensorFlow and Deep Learning

2023-05-31T17:43:09+00:00

Today's culture has seen a significant rise in fake news, especially with the emergence of social media platforms where misinformation may spread swiftly. False information may have detrimental effects, such as influencing elections, encouraging hate speech, and eroding trust in reliable news sources. Identification of false news has become a hot topic in recent years, with several solutions being proposed for the problem. The paper discusses LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory), Bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM), and Convolu-tion Neural Network (CNN)-based deep learning-based algorithms for identifying fake news. The "ISOT Fake News dataset," "News Dataset from TI-CNN," and "Getting Real About Fake News dataset" are among the datasets that were used. Following prepro-cessing methods such as stop keyword removal, stemming, and tokenization are used, these datasets are subjected to word embedding. This processed data is used to train the LSTM model, which determines whether or not news reports are fake. Performance metrics including precision, recall, accuracy, and F1-score provide as proof of the rec-ommended model's efficacy in identifying fake news. Comparisons with other state-of-the-art models show its improved efficacy. In terms of both accuracy and F1-score, the CNN beat the standard LSTM and BiLSTM models. CNN-BiLSTM is most effective model, having superior findings as well as efficiency across the three datasets.

Thyroid Disease Detection Using Machine Learning

2023-05-19T05:50:25+00:00

The thyroid gland, which is in charge of controlling metabolism and other biological functions, is affected by thyroid illness, a frequent medical disorder. Successful thyroid disease management and therapy depends on early diagnosis and treatment. Recent years have seen the development of numerous machine learning methods and artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to help with the early detection and diagnosis of thyroid disease. These methods entail evaluating a range of patient data, such as laboratory results, imaging studies, and clinical complaints. These algorithms can find patterns and correlations in vast volumes of patient data that might not be obvious to human ex-perts. This may result in earlier identification and more precise diagnosis of thyroid ill-ness, enhancing patient outcomes and lowering medical expenses. Additional study and development are necessary to improve these methods and incorporate them into clinical practice.

Heart Disease Prediction by using Random Forest Classifier

2023-05-17T16:07:30+00:00

This research presents data on a Machine Learning-based Artificial Intelligence system used in predicting cardiac illness. In this research, we learn how advances in machine learning have improved our ability to foresee who will and will not get heart disease. In both developed and less developed, non-industrialized countries, cardiovascular dis- eases are majorly the main reason of immortality for decades. Reducing mortality from cardiovascular infections requires both early detection and constant clinical supervision. However, it is unrealistic to expect accurate, consistent patient screening, and having a specialist confer with a patient for 24 hours isn't feasible due to the additional knowledge, time, and training it would require. Here, we have used ML algorithms and methods which are likely as linear regression, Random Forest, Decision tree, SVM, KNN, and others to construct and explore models for coronary sickness expectancy via the various cardiac attributes of patient and to spot impending coronary ill-ness. For more accurate diagnosis of heart infections, a Random Forest is developed. Due to its near-perfect accuracy in data preparation, this application necessitates thorough data analysis.

Understanding Covid-19 Situation Using Mathematical Modeling

2023-08-24T16:43:03+00:00

In light of the absence of an effective vaccine or specific antiviral treatments, mathematical modeling assumes a crucial role in enhancing our comprehension of disease dynamics and in devising strategies to manage the rapid spread of infectious diseases. Particularly during this period, forecasting holds paramount significance for healthcare planning and for effectively addressing the COVID-19 pandemic. To eluci-date the dynamics of the COVID-19 outbreak, this study introduces an extended SEIR compartment model, refined with the inclusion of contact tracing and hospitalization strategies. The model is calibrated employing daily COVID-19 data encompassing various Indian regions, including Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, West Bengal, and the entirety of India. Employing the least squares method, we es-timate sensitive parameters after conducting a sensitivity analysis, which we ap-proach using partial rank correlation coefficient techniques. Our exploration focuses on the relative significance of system parameters, with a dedicated sensitivity analy-sis centered on the reproductive number R₀. To assess the model's resilience across parameter variations, we compute R₀ sensitivity indices. Our findings underscore the effectiveness of strategies that involve reducing disease transmission coefficients (s) and clinical outbreak rates (qa) in controlling COVID-19 outbreaks. Our study gener-ates short-term predictions for daily and cumulative confirmed COVID-19 cases across the five Indian provinces. These projections reveal distinct trends, with certain states demonstrating steady exponential growth, while others exhibit a decline in daily new cases. Examining the long-term perspective, our model predicts oscillatory dynamics for COVID-19 cases in India, suggesting the potential for the disease to follow a seasonal pattern. Consequently, our simulation points towards a power law trend in coronavirus cases in India by the close of September 2020, further contrib-uting to our understanding of the disease's progression.

2022-12-25T17:43:38+00:00

With the growing role and application of mathematics in almost every field it is no doubt that it plays an experimental and crucial role in an advancing field of neurosci-ence which is still under constant research. The aim of the report is two fundamental points: to show how mathematical models that enlighten a few pieces of neuroscience can be built, principally by depicting both "exemplary" and recent models; what's more, to make sense of mathematical techniques by which these models can be investigated, in this way yielding pre-expressions and clarifications that can be applied as a powerful influence for experimental information. To show how somewhat straightforward mathematical models and their investigations can help comprehension of certain areas and activity of brain and central nervous systems. In computational neuroscience a model is recorded which is an estimate of the connection between a bunch of infor-mation; however, there is no formal intelligent way to "demonstrate" the model right or wrong. So mathematical recreations are done. The role of mathematics in neuroscience has been elaborated and discussed.
