In previous years, significant attempts have been made to enhance computer-aided diagnosis and prediction applications. This paper presents the results obtained using different machine learning (ML) algorithms and a special type of a neural network map to uncover previously unknown comorbidities associated with chronic diseases, allowing for fast, accurate, and precise predictions. Furthermore, we are presenting a comparative study on different artificial intelligence (AI) tools like the Kohonen self-organizing map (SOM) neural network, random forest, and decision tree for predicting 17 different chronic non-communicable diseases such as asthma, chronic lung diseases, myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease, hypertension, stroke, arthrosis, lower back diseases, cervical spine diseases, diabetes mellitus, allergies, liver cirrhosis, urinary tract diseases, kidney diseases, depression, high cholesterol, and cancer. The research was developed as an observational cross-sectional study through the support of the European Union project, with the data collected from the largest Institute of Public Health “Dr. Milan Jovanovic Batut” in Serbia. The study found that hypertension is the most prevalent disease in Sumadija and western Serbia region, affecting 9.8% of the population, and it is particularly prominent in the age group of 65 to 74 years, with a prevalence rate of 33.2%. The use of Random Forest algorithms can also aid in identifying comorbidities associated with hypertension, with the highest number of comorbidities established as 11. These findings highlight the potential for ML algorithms to provide accurate and personalized diagnoses, identify risk factors and interventions, and ultimately improve patient outcomes while reducing healthcare costs. Moreover, they will be utilized to develop targeted public health interventions and policies for future healthcare frameworks to reduce the burden of chronic diseases in Serbia.

Hyperinsulinemia is a condition characterized by excessively high levels of insulin in the bloodstream. It can exist for many years without any symptomatology. The research presented in this paper was conducted from 2019 to 2022 in cooperation with a health center in Serbia as a large cross-sectional observational study of adolescents of both genders using datasets collected from the field. Previously used analytical approaches of integrated and relevant clinical, hematological, biochemical, and other variables could not identify potential risk factors for developing hyperinsulinemia. This paper aims to present several different models using machine learning (ML) algorithms such as naive Bayes, decision tree, and random forest and compare them with a new methodology constructed based on artificial neural networks using Taguchi’s orthogonal vector plans (ANN-L), a special extraction of Latin squares. Furthermore, the experimental part of this study showed that ANN-L models achieved an accuracy of 99.5% with less than seven iterations performed. Furthermore, the study provides valuable insights into the share of each risk factor contributing to the occurrence of hyperinsulinemia in adolescents, which is crucial for more precise and straightforward medical diagnoses. Preventing the risk of hyperinsulinemia in this age group is crucial for the well-being of the adolescents and society as a whole.

The multidisciplinary of contemporary societies compel us to look at Information Technology (IT) systems as one of the most significant grants that we can remember. However, its increase implies a mandatory security force for users, a force in the form of effective and robust tools to combat cybercrime to which users, individual or collective, are ex-posed almost daily. Monitoring and detection of this kind of problem must be ensured in real-time, allowing companies to intervene fruitfully, quickly and in unison. The proposed framework is based on an organic symbiosis between credible, affordable, and effective open-source tools for data analysis, relying on Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Big Data and Machine Learning (ML) techniques commonly applied for the development of real-time monitoring systems. Dissecting this framework, it is composed of a system based on SIEM methodology that provides monitoring of data in real-time and simultaneously saves the information, to assist forensic investigation teams. Secondly, the application of the Big Data concept is effective in manipulating and organising the flow of data. Lastly, the use of ML techniques that help create mechanisms to detect possible attacks or anomalies on the network. This framework is intended to provide a real-time analysis application in the institution ISCTE – Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (Iscte), offering a more complete, efficient, and secure monitoring of the data from the different devices comprising the network.

Por último, o uso de técnicas de ML que ajudam a criação de mecanismos de deteção de possíveis ataques ou anomalias na rede. Esta framework tem como objetivo uma aplicação de análise em tempo real na instituição ISCTE – Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (Iscte), apresentando uma monitorização mais completa, eficiente e segura dos dados dos diversos dispositivos presentes na mesma.

— We all know that agriculture is important to the majority of Indians. Farmers nowadays are curious about crop yields when seasons, ambient temperature, rain, and soil conditions change. Farmers can grow new types of crops, which supports the prediction and boosts the crop's profit. Farmers will be aided in picking which crop to plant in order to maximise yield by machine learning algorithms' forecasts, which will take into consideration elements such as temperature, rainfall, and area. Crop yield prediction in Python is the best and easiest way to improve accuracy by include N, P, K, and soil type as attributes. We're trying to figure out the best and most accurate way to anticipate crop yields . The ML Algorithms like SVM and Random Forest Regressor,XGB regressor are used to predict crop yield.

Breast cancer is the leading cause of mortality globally. Several attempts have been made to use data mining methodology together with machine learning techniques to develop systems that can detect or prevent breast cancer. In line with the reviewed paper; large datasets for illness analysis have been developed. In this study, the results of selected Machine Learning algorithms are compared: Decision Table, J48, SGD, bagging, and Naïve Bayes Updateable on Wisconsin Breast Cancer Original dataset was conducted using weka tools. Exploratory data analysis, pre-processed with supervised attribute selection and class order, was used to identify potential features to aid the performance of the chosen algorithms in classification. The empirical result showed that Decision Table explores greater likelihood (74% correctly classified instances, True Positive Rate of 0.752, False Positive Rate of 0.478, Precision of 0.77, receiver operating characteristic Area of 0.682) in terms of accuracy and efficiency compared with others. This study's comparison technique is thought to aid breast cancer detection.

Aim: The development of coronary artery disease (CAD), a highly prevalent disease worldwide, is influenced by several modifiable risk factors. Predictive models built using machine learning (ML) algorithms may assist clinicians in timely detection of CAD and may improve outcomes. Materials & methods: In this study, we applied six different ML algorithms to predict the presence of CAD amongst patients listed in ‘the Cleveland dataset.’ The generated computer code is provided as a working open source solution with the ultimate goal to achieve a viable clinical tool for CAD detection. Results: All six ML algorithms achieved accuracies greater than 80%, with the ‘neural network’ algorithm achieving accuracy greater than 93%. The recall achieved with the ‘neural network’ model is also the highest of the six models (0.93), indicating that predictive ML models may provide diagnostic value in CAD., Lay abstract Coronary artery disease (CAD) is correlated with many preventable risk factors. Early diagnosis of CAD allows for prevention of worsening of CAD and its complications. This study aims to utilize machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict for CAD in patients. Our results indicate that ML algorithms can accurately predict for CAD. Furthermore, by providing our code publicly, we hope to improve the ability for ML algorithms as a diagnostic tool for CAD.
