Evaluating the Performance of Two Hybrid Feature Selection Model of Machine Learning for Credit Card Fraud Detection on Classification and Prediction Methods | Chapter 06 | Advances in Applied Science and Technology Vol. 2


The hybrid and non-hybrid feature selection model aimed at predicting and classifying whether a transaction is fraudulent or non-fraudulent using machine learning approaches. The objective of this study was to use supervised learning framework to differentiate fraudulent and genuine transactions. The proposed hybrid model utilizes feature selection methods namely; the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and PCA-Backward elimination with multiple linear regression and Reduced Error Pruning Tree classifier (RepT) using Python and WEKA. Through five experiments carried out in this study, the proposed approach has proven to be effective for eliminating redundant features in the dataset that does not have significant impact using PCA and Backward elimination method to optimize the predictive behaviour of the credit card transactions. Our first findings from the experimental results revealed that the RepT with PCA-Backward-Elimination prediction accuracy 87.37% is higher than that of multiple linear regressions with PCA 73.35% and PCA-Backward-Elimination 73.34%. Our second findings also revealed that the RepT with PCA-Backward-Elimination classification accuracy of 99.9368% is higher than that of multiple linear regressions with PCA 99.9122% and PCA-Backward-Elimination 99.9105%. The performance metrics measures on the classification model of the logistic regression with PCA-Backward-Elimination indicates that the hybrid model negates it with the expectation of maximization to minimization (99.9122% to 99.9105%) but returns the same results on the RepT decision tree classification in both cases of  99.9368%. The proposed hybrid feature selection method with machine learning algorithms outperforms the non-hybrid feature selection method with machine learning algorithms for classification and prediction accuracy.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

There is No Standard Model of ZFC and ZFC2 | Chapter 03 | Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science Vol. 1

In this Chapter we obtain a contradictions in formal set theories under assumption that these theories have omega-models or nonstandard model with standard part. An possible generalization of Lob’s theorem is considered. Main results are: (i) ¬Con(ZF C+ ∃ M ZFC st ), (ii) ¬Con(N F+ ∃ M NF st ), (iii) ¬Con(ZF C 2 ), (iv) let k be an inaccessible cardinal then ¬Con(ZF C+ ∃ κ), (v) ¬Con(ZF C+ (V=L)), (vi) ¬Con(ZF+ (V=L)).

Occipital Dermal Sinus Tract Causing Craniospinal Infection: A Review | Chapter 13 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  Dermal sinus is a rare congenital condition characterized by a pathological tract connecting the skin to deeper tissues of the central nervous system, potentially leading to severe infectious complications. It arises from a failure in the separation of ectodermal layers during early gestation. Diagnosing dermal sinus tract in newborns requires a careful physical examination, focusing on midline dimples in the occipital region associated with cutaneous abnormalities like hairy nevus or hyperpigmentation. The presence of drainage, abnormal hair distribution, or localized swelling may indicate a sinus tract. Regular examination for dimples or sinuses is recommended for infants and children with recurrent meningitis or infections. Early detection is crucial to prevent severe complications like meningitis, with Staphylococcus aureus being a common causative organism. Neuroradiological studies, including computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with histopath...
