Drawing on all data available in 2003, the WoE of the human epidemiological data for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) demonstrates that exposure to a mixture of PCBs (i.e. Aroclors) did not pose a cancer risk to humans ( Golden et al. (2003) . This evaluation was based on criteria established by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as well as on a different methodology used by the Agenc...

The exploitation of remote sensing techniques has substantially improved pre- and post- disaster landslide management over the last decade. A variety susceptibility methods exists, with capabilities limitations related to scale spatial accuracy issues, as well data availability. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) have significantly contributed detection, monitoring, mapping phenom...

Fraudulent transaction data tend to have several categorical features with high cardinality. It makes preprocessing complicated if categories in such do not an order or meaningful mapping numerical values. Even though many encoding techniques exist, their impact on highly imbalanced massive sets is thoroughly evaluated.
 Two datasets imbalance lower than 1\% of frauds been used our study. ...

Any inquiry into the condition of churches to-day must consider gulf existing between church and working class. We hardly realize, I think, that by a great section proletariat our religious organizations are regraded as stronghold hypocrisy oppression. realize bitterness these workers fell toward us they repeat once again: “Woe unto you, scribes Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ hous...

Abstract Land-use suitability assessment crucial is for coal mine rehabilitation planning, especially the mines that have undergone varying degrees of mining subsidence. In this study, we present an on crop cultivation in Dawu district NW Jiangsu province, Eastern China. Distribution local land subsidence delineated with topographic analysis, and weight-of-evidence (WoE) has encompassed various...

In this study, asthma-prone area modeling of Tehran, Iran was provided by employing three ensemble machine learning algorithms (Bootstrap aggregating (Bagging), Adaptive Boosting (AdaBoost), and Stacking). First, a spatial database created with 872 locations asthma patients affecting factors (particulate matter (PM10 PM2.5), ozone (O3), sulfur dioxide (SO2), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen (NO2)...

ABSTRACT The commercial exploitation of personal information has raised concerns regarding privacy, illegal data use, and security, among others. Therefore, protection systems (PDPS) play a significant role, corporations are the primary enforcers these systems’ regulation. However, PDPS require investment from companies, there is no consensus economic outcomes establishing systems. This study i...

Modelling and classification difficulties are fundamental issues in natural hazard assessment. A geographic information system (GIS) is a domain that requires users to use various tools to perform different types of spatial modelling. Bivariate statistical analysis (BSA) assists in hazard modelling. To perform this analysis, several calculations are required and the user has to transfer data fr...
