One in every eight women is susceptible to breast cancer, at some point of time in her life. Early detection and effective treatment is the only rescue to reduce breast cancer mortality. Accurate classification of a breast cancer tumor is an important task in medical diagnosis. Machine learning techniques are gaining importance in medical diagnosis because of their classification capability. In this paper, we propose a new, Genetically Optimized Neural Network (GONN) algorithm, for solving classification problems. We evolve a neural network genetically to optimize its architecture (structure and weight) for classification. We introduce new crossover and mutation operators which differ from standard crossover and mutation operators to reduce the destructive nature of these operators. We use the GONN algorithm to classify breast cancer tumors as benign or malignant. To demonstrate our results, we had taken the WBCD database from UCI Machine Learning repository and compared the classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, confusion matrix, ROC curves and AUC under ROC curves of GONN with classical model and classical back propagation model. Our algorithm gives classification accuracy of 98.24%, 99.63% and 100% for 50–50, 60–40, 70–30 training–testing partition respectively and 100% for 10 fold cross validation. The results show that our approach works well with the breast cancer database and can be a good alternative to the well-known machine learning methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• Deep learning algorithm for identification of type and flight mode of detected drones. • Novel deep learning algorithm for detection of multiple drones in radio frequency domain. • Results of three indoor experiments concerning collecting and analyzing radio signals from drones. • Public available database with radio signals of drones from two different radio frequency bands. Unmanned aerial systems, especially drones have gone through remarkable improvement and expansion in recent years. Drones have been widely utilized in many applications and scenarios, due to their low price and ease of use. However, in some applications drones can pose a malicious threat. To diminish risks to public security and personal privacy, it is necessary to deploy an effective and affordable anti-drone system in sensitive areas to detect, localize, identify, and defend against intruding malicious drones. This research article presents a new publicly available radio frequency drone dataset and investigates detection and identification methodologies to detect single or multiple drones and identify a single detected drone's type. Moreover, special attention in this paper has been underlined to examine the possibility of using deep learning algorithms, particularly fully connected deep neural networks as an anti-drone solution within two different radio frequency bands. We proposed a supervised deep learning algorithm with fully-connected deep neural network models that use raw drone signals rather than features. Regarding the research results, the proposed algorithm shows a lot of potentials. The probability of detecting a single drone is 99.8%, and the probability of type identification is 96.1%. Moreover, the results of multiple drones detection demonstrate an average accuracy of 97.3%. There have not been such comprehensive publications, to this time, in the open literature that have presented and enlightened the problem of multiple drones detection in the radio frequency domain.

• Multi-hybrid neural network with EWT extraction and q -DSCID evaluation is pro-posed. • Novel algorithm based on random inheritance formula is advanced and engrafted. • Ameliorated DBLSTMNN, integrates deep bidirectional training configuration. • Variational learning rate arithmetic is put forward to optimize parameter selection. • Results show the high accuracy of the proposed model for crude oil futures. Machine learning algorithms provide feasibility for crude oil price prediction. In this paper, a novel multi-hybrid predictive neural network model is proposed based on complex deep learning algorithm, which integrates empirical wavelet transform, random inheritance formula error correction algorithm, deep bidirectional LSTM neural network and Elman recurrent neural network with variational learning rate. The prediction model is selected according to the sequence frequency after EWT feature extraction, and the prediction results are obtained by separately predicting and reintegrating. On the basis of individual model, the structure of deep bidirectional training, random inheritance formula and variational learning rate are proposed, which further ameliorate the performance of the model and achieve more effective data information capture. Simultaneously, the examination of variational learning rate provides us with a feasible parameter selection. The proposed model achieves high-precision prediction of crude oil futures price, and stands out in the multi-model comparison analysis and q -DSCID synchronous evaluation, with superior prediction accuracy.
