Uncovering taste heterogeneity and non-linearity for urban mode choice using SHAP

European cities are implementing diverse strategies to curtail car usage. Understanding the impact of these policies necessitates insights into mode choice behaviour. However, for conventional discrete choice models, utility specifications must be defined upfront, potentially leading to misleading policy recommendations. This problem is solved...

Hydrogen Storage on Porous Carbon Adsorbents: Rediscovery by Nature-Derived Algorithms in Random Forest Machine Learning Model

Porous carbons as solid adsorbent materials possess effective porosity characteristics that are the most important factors for gas storage. The chemical activating routes facilitate hydrogen storage by adsorbing on the high surface area and microporous features of porous carbon-based adsorbents. The present research proposed to predict H<sub...

ELISL: early-late integrated synthetic lethality prediction in cancer

Motivation<br/><br/>Anti-cancer therapies based on synthetic lethality (SL) exploit tumour vulnerabilities for treatment with reduced side effects, by targeting a gene that is jointly essential with another whose function is lost. Computational prediction is key to expedite SL screening, yet existing methods are vulnerable to prevalent selection...

Measuring the quality of publicly available synthetic IDS datasets: A comparative study

Year after year, the amount of network intrusions and costs associated to them rises. Research in this area is, therefore, of high importance and provides valuable insight in how to prevent or counteract intrusions. Machine learning algorithms seem to be a promising answer for automated network intrusion detection, as their results often reach...

Landslide Detection using Random Forest Classifier

Landslides are destructive and recurrent natural disasters that cost annually significant social and economic losses all over the world. These events can be induced by natural factors as earthquakes and extreme rainfall, as well as by human intervention, including construction and mining. A primary resource to conduct landslides studies for...

Multi-Level Driver Workload Prediction Using Machine Learning and Off-The-Shelf Sensors

The present study aims to add to the literature on driver workload prediction using machine learning methods. The main aim is to develop workload prediction on a multi-class basis, rather than a binary high/low distinction as often found in litearature. The presented approach relies on measures that can be obtained unobtrusively in the driving...
