MarblingPredictor: A software to analyze the quality of dry-cured ham slices.

Dry-cured ham is a traditional Mediterranean meat product consumed throughout the world. This product is very variable in terms of composition and consumer's acceptability is influenced by different factors, among others, visual intramuscular fat and its distribution across the slice, also known as marbling. On-line inter and intramuscular fat evaluation and marbling assessment is of interest for classification purposes at the industry.

Machine Learning for Brain Stroke: A Review.

Machine Learning (ML) delivers an accurate and quick prediction outcome and it has become a powerful tool in health settings, offering personalized clinical care for stroke patients. An application of ML and Deep Learning in health care is growing however, some research areas do not catch enough attention for scientific investigation though there is real need of research. Therefore, the aim of this work is to classify state-of-arts on ML techniques for brain stroke into 4 categories based on their functionalities or similarity, and then review studies of each category systematically.

An extensive experimental survey of regression methods.

Regression is a very relevant problem in machine learning, with many different available approaches. The current work presents a comparison of a large collection composed by 77 popular regression models which belong to 19 families: linear and generalized linear models, generalized additive models, least squares, projection methods, LASSO and ridge regression, Bayesian models, Gaussian processes, quantile regression, nearest neighbors, regression trees and rules, random forests, bagging and boosting, neural networks, deep learning and support vector regression. These methods are evaluated using all the regression datasets of the UCI machine learning repository (83 datasets), with some exceptions due to technical reasons.
