Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Weighted Voting Deep Learning Approach for Plant Disease ClassificationAssia Ennouni, Noura Ouled Sihamman, My Abdelouahed Sabri, Abdellah AarabPlant destruction is usually caused by plant diseases. Without early and reliable detection, it can affect the plants and may eventually cause permanent losses, especially for inexperienced farmers. Therefore, intelligence in agriculture is becoming more and more required. Thereafter early diagnosis and classification are crucial and a very challenging research field in the agriculture sector for its treatment. In this … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 17, Issue 12 · 16 Dec 2021 · 6,557 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Conceptualization of Distributed Computation for Machine Learning: The Voting AlgorithmTalal Talib JameelThis paper describes a voting algorithm that can be used to find the most optimal solution to clustering problems in machine learning. As part of the family of algorithms known as Condorcet methods, the voting algorithm is used to choose a particular candidate, even in the absence of a definitive majority. The algorithm proceeds in two steps: Renormalization and reconciliation. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2017 · 7,890 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImproving 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 keywordsA Multi-Scale Feature Extraction and Fusion Deep Learning Method for Classification of Wheat DiseasesSajjad Saleem, Adil Hussain, Nabila Majeed et al.Wheat is an important source of dietary fiber and protein that is negatively impacted by a number of risks to its growth. The difficulty of identifying and classifying wheat diseases is discussed with an emphasis on wheat loose smut, leaf rust, and crown and root rot. Addressing conditions like crown and root rot, this study introduces an innovative approach that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2025 · 6,344 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Linear-Polynomial Kernel to Construct Support Vector Machines for Speech RecognitionBalwant A. Sonkamble, D.D. DoyeProblem statement: To accept the inputs as spoken word utterances uttered by various speakers, recognize the corresponding spoken words and initiate action pertaining to that word. Approach: A novel Linear-Polynomial (LP) Kernel function was used to construct support vector machines to classify the spoken word utterances. The support vector machines were constructed using various kernel functions. The use of well … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 7,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsE-DemocracyKevin Curran, Eric NicholsDemocracy means majority rule. This raises some interesting questions. In a truly democratic society, when a majority of citizens vote for one candidate to govern them, then that person would be the elected governor of those people. Following this line of reasoning, if the majority of people do not vote for a leader, does democracy mean not having a leader? … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,066 accessesView PDFCite
