A novel method of Skin lesion segmentation based on the combination of Texture and Neural Network is proposed in this paper. This paper combines the textures of different pixels in the skin images in order to increase the performance of lesion segmentation. For segmenting skin lesions, a two-step process is done. First, automatic border detection is performed to separate the lesion from the background skin. This begins by identifying the features that represent the lesion border clearly by the process of Texture analysis. In the second step, the obtained features are given as input towards the Recurrent Echo state neural networks in order to obtain the segmented skin lesion region. The proposed algorithm is trained and tested for 862 skin lesion images in order to evaluate the accuracy of segmentation. Overall accuracy of the proposed method is compared with existing algorithms. An average accuracy of 98.8% for segmenting skin lesion images has been obtained.

We propose a network traffic prediction model based on linear and nonlinear model combination. Network traffic is modeled by an autoregressive moving average model, and the error between the measured and predicted network traffic values is obtained. Then, an echo state network is used to fit the prediction error with nonlinear components. In addition, an improved slime mold algorithm is proposed for reservoir parameter optimization of the echo state network, further improving the regression performance. The predictions of the linear (autoregressive moving average) and nonlinear (echo state network) models are added to obtain the final prediction. Compared with other prediction models, test results on two network traffic datasets from mobile and fixed networks show that the proposed prediction model has a smaller error and difference measures. In addition, the coefficient of determination and index of agreement is close to 1, indicating a better data fitting performance. Although the proposed prediction model has a slight increase in time complexity for training and prediction compared with some models, it shows practical applicability.

Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), a machine learning model which can handle time-series data, can possess more varied structures than a feed-forward neural network, since a RNN allows hidden-to-hidden connections. This research focuses on the network structure among hidden neurons, and discusses the information processing capability of RNN. Time-series learning potential and dynamics of RNNs are investigated upon several well-established network structure models. Hidden neuron network structure is found to have significant impact on the performance of a model, and the performance variations are generally correlated with the criticality of the network dynamics. Especially Preferential Attachment Network model showed an interesting behavior. These findings provide clues for performance improvement of the RNN.

The application of machine learning models for trend prediction in the domestic stock market is increasing. In particular, utilizing machine learning is essential for analyzing and predicting complex time-series data, such as stock price data. This study proposes a machine learning system for financial time-series trend prediction, utilizing cloud computing services. First, for data collection, the serverless service of Amazon Web Services was employed, and the thresholds of technical analysis indicators were optimized through a genetic algorithm. The optimized indicators were then used as training data for Echo State Network, Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), and various machine learning classification models to predict the trend of each stock. Based on the predicted trends, backtesting was conducted, and the results showed that the average returns were 334% for ESN, 175% for RNN, and 199% for classification models. Therefore, this study suggests that machine learning exhibits high predictive power in domestic stock investment and holds various potential applications.
