Machine Learning and Knowledge Extraction, Volume 7, Issue 4

In this study, a structured and methodological evaluation approach for eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) methods in medical image classification is proposed and implemented using LIME and SHAP explanations for chest X-ray interpretations. The...

A receipt information extraction task requires both textual and spatial analyses. Early receipt analysis systems primarily relied on template matching to extract data from spatially structured documents. However, these methods lack generalizability a...

Vasovagal syncope (VVS) affects 17% of children, significantly impairing quality of life. Machine learning (ML) models achieve high predictive accuracy of VVS in adults using blood pressure (BP) monitoring, but pediatric implementation remains challe...

Background: Automated pain assessment aims to enable objective measurement of patients’ individual pain experiences for improving health care and conserving medical staff. This is particularly important for patients with a disability to communi...

This work investigates how different language modeling techniques affect the performance of an end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) system for the Amazigh language. A (CNN-BiLSTM-CTC) model enhanced with an attention mechanism was used as th...

Operation and maintenance (O&M) events resulting from environmental factors (e.g., precipitation, temperature, seasonality, and unexpected weather conditions) are among the primary sources of operating costs and downtime in run-of-river small hyd...

Topic modeling is a fundamental technique in natural language processing used to uncover latent themes in large text corpora, yet existing approaches struggle to jointly achieve interpretability, semantic coherence, and scalability. Classical probabi...

This study explores a learning knowledge representation, using an iteratively reevaluated lattice of equivalence-classified properties. The proposed methodology is based on the evaluation feedback between the maximal and minimal elements of the compa...

Improving financial time series forecasting presents challenges because models often struggle to identify diverse fault patterns in unseen data. This issue is critical in fintech, where accurate and reliable forecasting of financial data is essential...

Sleep is increasingly acknowledged as a cornerstone of public health, with chronic sleep loss implicated in preventable injury and deaths. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects over one billion people worldwide but remains widely under-diagnosed due...
