Structured Query Language injection (SQLi) attack is a code injection technique where hackers inject SQL commands into a database via a vulnerable web application. Injected SQL commands can modify the back-end SQL database and thus compromise the security of a web application. In the previous...

Credit risk evaluation techniques that aid effective decisions in credit lending are of great importance to the financial and banking industries. Such techniques assist credit managers to minimize the risks often associated with wrong decision making. Several techniques have been developed in...

This article describes how the use of artificial intelligence applications as a consultation tool on a cytological laboratory's daily routine has been suggested for several decades. In addition to the use of high-resolution thyroid ultrasonography and fine-needle aspiration cytology, a further...

Purpose This paper aims to present the results of the comparison between different approaches to the prediction of electricity prices. It is well-known that the properties of the data generation process may prefer some modeling methods over the others. The data having an origin in social or...

Investigates the possibility of applying artificial intelligence to solve practical auditing problems faced by the public sector, namely the tax auditor of the Internal Revenue Services, when targeting firms for further investigation. Suggests that organizations which incorporate an operational...

Purpose For efficient trajectory control of industrial robots, a cumbersome computation for inverse kinematics and inverse dynamics is needed, which is usually developed using spatial transformation using Denavit–Hartenberg principle and Lagrangian or Newton–Euler methods, respectively. The...

Purpose This paper is a “Q&A interview” conducted by Joanne Pransky of Industrial Robot Journal as a method to impart the combined technological, business and personal experience of a prominent, robotic industry PhD-turned entrepreneur regarding his pioneering efforts of bringing...

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have many potential applications virtually in wide areas ranging from engineering to management. Recently, a great deal of interest (and effort) has been directed towards using ANNs in business practice. In particular, they have been used in areas which were...
