The internet of things (IoT) has contributed to improving the quality of service and operational efficiency in many areas, such as smart cities, but this technology has faced a major dilemma: the problem of cyber-attacks of various types. In this study, we relied on the use of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques to present a proposed model of an intrusion detection system (IDS) for detecting different types of IoT attacks that include ARP_poisoning, DOS_SYN_Hping, MQTT_Publish, NMAP_FIN_SCAN, NMAP_OS_DETECTION, and Thing_Speak. However, the proposed model is built using Orange3 data mining tools. The model consists of random forest (RF), artificial neural network (ANN), logistic regression (LR), and support vector machine (SVM) classifiers. On the other hand, the data set that is used was obtained from the Kaggle platform's real-time IoT infrastructure data set, called RT-IoT2022. The data set consists of a huge number of records, which are processed and then reduced to 7,481 records using linear discriminant analysis. In the next stage, the data set is fed to the Orange3 data mining tool, which is divided into 70% of the training dataset and 30% of the test dataset, in addition to using fold-cross validation to increase accuracy and avoid overfitting. Thus, the experimental results showed the superiority of RF with a classification accuracy of (99.9%), while the accuracy in ANN reached (99.8%), (97.8%) in LR, and finally, for SVM, the accuracy reached (92.9%).

The rapid growth of sophisticated Android malware (AM) threats is significant, as Android devices often store private and sensitive personal and financial information. These threats allow stealing of data, interference with device functioning, and network compromise. One of the greatest difficulties in efficient interception systems is ensuring a high level of detection accuracy for distinguishable AM variants. This study focuses on developing a robust Android malware detection model via machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques. The model combines ML classifiers, which consist of logistic regression (LR) and decision trees (DTs), and a DL classifier, an artificial neural network (ANN). The model was implemented via an open-source data mining program called Orange. The NATICUSdroid dataset was used to train and test the model, which was measured in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure and AUC. The experimental findings revealed that the ANN performed the best (accuracy: 98.0%, precision/recall/F-measure: 98.0%, AUC: 0.997) and was better than the LR (accuracy: 96.1%, AUC: 0.989) and DT (accuracy: 96.0%, AUC: 0.971) methods. The results highlight the high potential of DL-based approaches, especially ANNs, to detect Android malware and reinforce their suitability for enhancing mobile security systems.

One of the most common causes of road accidents is driver behavior. To reduce abnormal driver behavior, it must be detected early on. Previous research has demonstrated that behavioral and physiological indicators affect drivers' performance. The goal of this study is to consider the feasibility of classifying driver behavior as either aggressive (sudden left or right turns, accelerating and braking), normal (average driving events) or slow (keeping a lower-than-average speed). Innovation in data mining and machine learning (ML) has allowed for the creation of powerful prediction tools. ML techniques have shown potential in predicting driver behavior, with classification being a critical study area. The data set was gathered using the Kaggle platform. This study classifies driver behavior using Orange3 data mining tools and tests several classifiers, including AdaBoost, CN2 rule inducer, and random forest (RF) classifiers. The results showed that AdaBoost was superior in predicting driver behavior, with 100% accuracy, while the classification accuracy in CN2 rule inducer and RF was 99.8% and 95.4%, respectively. These results demonstrate the possibility of early and highly accurate driver behavior prediction and use it to create a ML-based driver behavior detection system.

Traffic sign recognition systems are an important concern of advance driver assistance systems (ADAS) and intelligent autonomous vehicles. Recently, many studies have emerged that aim to employ artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to detect and classify traffic signs to improve a system that can be embedded in vehicles to increase efficiency and safety. This work's primary goal is to address traffic sign identification and recognition utilizing a 2,339-image open-source dataset from Kaggle. Our detection model for extracting and classifying traffic sign suggestions is built using Orange3 data mining tools, based on four classifiers random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), decision tree (DT), and adaptive boosting (AdaBoost). Signs are classified into eight categories: don't go signs, go signs, horn signs, roundabout signs, danger signs, crossing signs, speed limit sign, and unallowed signs. The results of examining and evaluating the proposed model based on the performance evaluation metrics showed that RF outperformed with an accuracy rate of 99.8%, followed by AdaBoost with a classification accuracy of 99.2%, and the classification accuracy of DT and KNN was 98.3% and 94.9%, respectively.

The brain is one of the most important vital organs in the human body. It is responsible for most of the body’s basic activities, such as breathing, heartbeat, thinking, remembering, speaking, and others. It also controls the central nervous system. Cerebral hemorrhage is considered one of the most dangerous diseases that a person may be exposed to during his life. Therefore, the correct and rapid diagnosis of the hemorrhage type is an important medical issue. The innovation in this work lies in extracting a huge number of effective features from computed tomography (CT) images of the brain using the Orange3 data mining technique, as the number of features extracted from each CT image reached (1,000). The proposed system then uses the extracted features in the classification process through logistic regression (LR), support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbor algorithm (KNN), and convolutional neural networks (CNN), which classify cerebral hemorrhage into four main types: epidural hemorrhage, subdural hemorrhage, intraventricular hemorrhage, and intraparenchymal hemorrhage. A total of (1,156) CT images were tested to verify the validity of the proposed model, and the results showed that the accuracy reached the required success level with an average of (97.1%).

Traffic congestion is a significant issue in cities, impacting the environment, commuters, and the economy. Predicting congestion is crucial for efficient network operation, but high-quality data and computational techniques are challenging for scientists and engineers. The revolution of data mining and machine learning has enabled the development of effective prediction methods. Machine learning (ML) approaches have shown potential in predicting traffic congestion, with classification being a key area of study. Open-source software tools WEKA and Orange are used to predict and classify traffic congestion. However, there is no single best strategy for every situation. This study compared the effectiveness of both data mining tools for predicting congestion in one of the areas of the capital of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Amman, by testing several classifiers including support vector machine (SVM), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), logistic regression (LR), and random forest (RF) classifications. The results showed that the Orange mining tool was superior in predicting traffic congestion, with a prediction accuracy of 100% for Random forest, logistic regression, and 99.8% for KNN. On the other hand, results were better in WEKA for the SVM classifier with an accuracy of 99.7%.
