This thesis is focused on the analysis of experimental ECG records drawn up in isolated rabbit hearts and aims to describe changes in EKG caused by ischemia and left ventricular hypertrophy. It consists of a theoretical analysis of the problems in the evaluation of ECG during ischemia and hypertrophy, and describes an experimental ECG recording. Theoretical part is followed by a practical section which describes the method for calculating morphological parameters, followed by ROC analysis to evaluate their suitability for the classification of hypertrophy and at the end is focused on classification.

This thesis is carried out in collaboration with a private company, DANSiC AB This study is an extension of a research work started by DANSiC AB in 2019 to classify a source. This study is about classifying a source into two classes with the sensitivity of one source higher than the other as one source has greater importance. The data provided for this thesis is based on sensor measurements on different temperature cycles. The data is high-dimensional and is expected to have a drift in measurements. Principal component analysis (PCA) is used for dimensionality reduction. “Differential”, “Relative” and “Fractional” drift compensation techniques are used for compensating the drift in data. A comparative study was performed using three different classification algorithms, which are “Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA)”, “Naive Bayes classifier (NB)” and “Random forest (RF)”. The highest accuracy achieved is 59%,Random forest is observed to perform better than the other classifiers. / <p>This work is done with DANSiC AB in collaboration with Linkoping University.</p>

The execution of the scientific applications on the Cloud comes with great flexibility, scalability, cost-effectiveness, and substantial computing power. Market-leading Cloud service providers such as Amazon Web service (AWS), Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offer various general purposes, memory-intensive, and compute-intensive Cloud instances for the execution of scientific applications. The scientific community, especially small research institutions and undergraduate universities, face many hurdles while conducting high-performance computing research in the absence of large dedicated clusters. The Cloud provides a lucrative alternative to dedicated clusters, however a wide range of Cloud computing choices makes the instance selection for the end-users. This thesis aims to simplify Cloud instance selection for end-users by proposing a probabilistic machine learning framework to allow to users select a suitable Cloud instance for their scientific applications. This research builds on the previously proposed A2Cloud-RF framework that recommends high-performing Cloud instances by profiling the application and the selected Cloud instances. The framework produces a set of objective scores called the A2Cloud scores, which denote the compatibility level between the application and the selected Cloud instances. When used alone, the A2Cloud scores become increasingly unwieldy with an increasing number of tested Cloud instances. Additionally, the framework only examines the raw application performance and does not consider the execution cost to guide resource selection. To improve the usability of the framework and assist with economical instance selection, this research adds two Naïve Bayes (NB) classifiers that consider both the application’s performance and execution cost. These NB classifiers include: 1) NB with a Random Forest Classifier (RFC) and 2) a standalone NB module. Naïve Bayes with a Random Forest Classifier (RFC) augments the A2Cloud-RF framework's final instance ratings with the execution cost metric. In the training phase, the classifier builds the frequency and probability tables. The classifier recommends a Cloud instance based on the highest posterior probability for the selected application. The standalone NB classifier uses the generated A2Cloud score (an intermediate result from the A2Cloud-RF framework) and execution cost metric to construct an NB classifier. The NB classifier forms a frequency table and probability (prior and likelihood) tables. For recommending a Cloud instance for a test application, the classifier calculates the highest posterior probability for all of the Cloud instances. The classifier recommends a Cloud instance with the highest posterior probability. This study performs the execution of eight real-world applications on 20 Cloud instances from AWS, Azure, GCP, and Linode. We train the NB classifiers using 80% of this dataset and employ the remaining 20% for testing. The testing yields more than 90% recommendation accuracy for the chosen applications and Cloud instances. Because of the imbalanced nature of the dataset and multi-class nature of classification, we consider the confusion matrix (true positive, false positive, true negative, and false negative) and F1 score with above 0.9 scores to describe the model performance. The final goal of this research is to make Cloud computing an accessible resource for conducting high-performance scientific executions by enabling users to select an effective Cloud instance from across multiple providers.

Several studies have been conducted within machine learning, and various variations have been applied to a wide spectrum of other fields. However, a thorough feasibility study within the payment processing industry using machine learning classifier algorithms is yet to be explored. Here, we construct a rule-based response vector and use that in combination with a magnitude of varying feature vectors across different machine learning classifier algorithms to try and determine whether individual transactions can be considered profitable from a business point of view. These algorithms include Naive-Bayes, AdaBoosting, Stochastic Gradient Descent, K-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Trees and Random Forests, all helped us build a model with a high performance that acts as a robust confirmation of both the benefits and a theoretical guide on the implementation of machine learning algorithms in the payment processing industry. The results as such are a firm confirmation on the benefits of data intensive models, even in complex industries similar to Swedbank Pay’s. These Implications help further boost innovation and revenue as they offer a better understanding of the current pricing mechanisms. / Många studier har utförts inom ämnet maskininlärning, och olika variationer har applicerats på ett brett spektrum av andra ämnen. Däremot, så har en ordentlig genomförbarhetsstudie inom betalningsleveransindustrin med hjälp av klassificeringsalgortimer har ännu ej utforskats. Här har vi konstruerat en regelbaserad responsvektor och använt den, tillsammans med en rad olika och varierande egenskapvektorer på olika maskininlärningsklassificeringsalgoritmer för att försöka avgöra ifall individuella transaktioner är lönsamma utifrån företagets perspektiv. Dessa algoritmer är Naive-Bayes, AdaBoosting, Stokastisk gradient medåkning, K- Närmaste grannar, beslutsträd och slumpmässiga beslutsskogar. Alla dessa har hjälpt oss bygga en teoretisk vägledning om implementering av maskininlärningsalgoritmer inom betalningsleveransindustrin. Dessa resultat är en robust bekräftelse på fördelarna av dataintensiva modeller även inom sådana komplexa industrier Swedbank Pay är verksamma inom. Implikationerna hjälper vidare att förstärka innovationen och öka intäkterna eftersom de erbjuder en bättre förståelse för deras nuvarande prissättningsmekanism.

The selection of machine learning algorithm used to solve a problem is an important choice. This paper outlines research measuring three performance metrics for eight different algorithms on a prediction task involving under- graduate admissions data. The algorithms that were tested are k-nearest neighbours, decision trees, random forests, gradient tree boosting, logistic regression, naive bayes, support vector machines, and artificial neural net- works. These algorithms were compared in terms of accuracy, training time, and execution time. / Thesis / Master of Applied Science (MASc)

Este trabalho apresenta a formulação de um sistema híbrido de apoio à decisão que, através de técnicas adaptativas, permite que múltiplos dispositivos sejam utilizados de forma colaborativa para encontrar uma solução para um problema de tomada de decisão. É proposta uma estratégia particular para o trabalho colaborativo que restringe o acesso aos dispositivos mais lentos com base na dificuldade encontrada pelos dispositivos mais rápidos para solucionar um problema específico. As soluções encontradas por cada dispositivo são propagadas aos demais, permitindo que cada um deles agregue estas novas soluções com o auxílio de técnicas adaptativas. É feito um estudo sobre aprendizagem de máquina mediante incertezas para verificar e minimizar os impactos negativos que uma nova solução, possivelmente errônea, possa ter. O sistema híbrido proposto é apresentado numa aplicação particular, utilizando testes padronizados para compará-lo com os dispositivos individuais que o compõem e com sistemas híbridos de mesma finalidade. Através destes testes, é mostrado que dispositivos consolidados, mesmo que de naturezas distintas, podem ser utilizados de maneira colaborativa, permitindo não só calibrar um compromisso entre o tempo de resposta e a taxa de acerto, mas também evoluir de acordo com o histórico de problemas processados. / This work presents a formulation of a hybrid decision-making system that employs adaptive techniques as a way to coordinate multiple devices in order to make a collaborative decision. The strategy proposed here is to restrict the use of slower devices, based on how difficult the specific problem is - easier problems may be solved on faster devices. Each device is able to learn through solutions given by the others, aggregating new knowledge with the aid of adaptive techniques. In order to evaluate and minimize the negative impact those new solutions may have, a study concerning machine learning under uncertainty is carried out. A particular application of this system has been tested and compared, not only to each individual device that is part of the system itself, but to similar hybrid systems as well. It is shown that even devices of distinct natures may be reused in a collaborative manner, making it possible to calibrate the trade-off between hit rate and response time, and to evolve according to the input stimuli received as well.

This thesis employs data-mining techniques and modern information and communication technology to develop methods which may improve efficiency of prevention oriented telemedical programs. In particular this thesis uses the ITAREPS program as a case study and demonstrates that an extension of the program based on the proposed methods may significantly improve the program's efficiency. ITAREPS itself is a state of the art telemedical program operating since 2006. It has been deployed in 8 different countries around the world, and solely in the Czech republic it helped prevent schizophrenic relapse in over 400 participating patients. Outcomes of this thesis are widely applicable not just to schizophrenic patients but also to other psychotic or non-psychotic diseases which follow a relapsing path and satisfy certain preconditions defined in this thesis. Two main areas of improvement are proposed. First, this thesis studies various temporal data-mining methods to improve relapse prediction efficiency based on diagnostic data history. Second, latest telecommunication technologies are used in order to improve quality of the gathered diagnostic data directly at the source.
