Discrimination has proved a core feature in many societies based on Race, Poverty, Gender and Caste etc. But with the advancement of societies, the problem of discrimination has not diminished. In India, caste system holds the major ground on behalf of which discrimination is practiced. The...

Adaptive and innovative application of classical data mining principles and techniques in time series analysis has resulted in development of a concept known as time series data mining. Since the time series are present in all areas of business and scientific research, attractiveness of mining...

The evolution of Industry 5.0, along with its predecessor Industry 4.0, has significantly boosted the adoption of predictive maintenance through integrating Internet of Things (IoT) sensors and real-time big data analysis, enabling the identification and prevention of equipment failures. This...

Accurate time-series forecasting of energy consumption and photovoltaic (PV) production is essential for effective energy management and sustainability. Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are effective tools for learning complex patterns in such data; however, optimizing their architecture remains a...

It is a widely known fact that the intraday seasonality of trading intervals for financial transactions such as stocks is short at the beginning of business hours and long in the middle of the day. In this paper, we extend the stochastic conditional duration (SCD) model to capture the pattern of...

We consider the basic problem of refi tting a time series over a finite period of time and formulate it as a stochastic dynamic program. By changing the underlying Markov decision process we are able to obtain a model that at optimality considers historical data as well as forecasts of future...
