Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessing the Comparative Effectiveness of Ensemble CatBoost Versus XGBoost Models in Predicting Heart Disease OutcomesManivannan D., G. Gifta Jerith, G. Chandra Sekhar et al.Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are a common form of heart disease that remains a significant global cause of mortality, responsible for more than 30% of all fatalities. Without intervention, the global fatality count is projected to reach 22 million by 2030. Arterial plaque buildup may impede blood flow, potentially causing heart attacks or strokes. A combination of risk causes, including lack … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 4 May 2026 · 1,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Fraud Detection Methods in Banking Using Machine Learning TechniquesYoussef Tounsi, Ennouri TaziFraud detection in banking requires algorithms that balance classification performance, computational efficiency, and regulatory interpretability, criteria that are rarely benchmarked together. We present a comprehensive evaluation of nine machine learning approaches (Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, SVM, SGD, XGBoost, CatBoost, LightGBM, and MLP) across three datasets differing in size, imbalance severity, and feature type (synthetic, real-world PCA-anonymized, and large-scale … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 6 · 22 Jun 2026 · 1,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Diabetes Risk Prediction Using Ensemble Boosting and SMOTE-Based Class BalancingKittipol Wisaeng, Pankom Sriboonlue, Benchalak MuangmeesriAccurate diabetes prediction is vital for early intervention, optimized resource allocation, and minimizing long-term complications. This study presents a comparative evaluation of traditional and advanced machine learning models for diabetes classification using a structured clinical dataset. Seven baseline algorithms were assessed against five advanced ensemble methods: CatBoost, LightGBM, XGBoost, Voting Ensemble, and Stacking Ensemble. To improve algorithm learning, the Synthetic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 1 Feb 2026 · 1,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOnline ML Streaming-Based Leading Ensemble Classifier for Intrusion Detection in IoTNeeraj Sharma, Neelu NihalaniIn the present decade, preventing IoT networks from malicious attacks and to ensure the privacy and integrity of data by strengthening their cybersecurity perspective is a critical concern. Traditional methods alone are not sufficient to detect multiple attacks. IDS-based system plays a crucial role to maintain security due to continuous expanding nature of IoT networks. Traditional methods alone are often … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 16 Dec 2025 · 2,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCrop Yield Prediction in Niger Using Machine Learning TechniquesMahaman Lawali Inoussa Garba, Naroua Harouna, Chaibou Kadri et al.Agriculture is the most impactful sector on Niger's economic growth. Stresses related to climate change and the environment are leading to a continuous decline in crop yield. Accurate crop yield forecasting is of paramount importance for farmers, government, policy makers, and other stakeholders to make most appropriate decisions regarding resource allocation and food security. This study examines the power of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 8 · 16 Sep 2025 · 5,792 accessesView PDFCite
