Many industries, including healthcare, banking, the auto industry, education, and retail, have already undergone significant changes because of artificial intelligence (AI). Business-to-Customer (B2C) e-commerce has considerably increased the use of AI in recent years. The purpose of this research is to examine the significance and impact of AI in the realm of fashion e-commerce. To that end, a systematic review of the literature is carried out, in which data from the Web Of Science and Scopus databases were used to analyze 219 publications on the subject. The articles were first categorized using AI techniques. In the realm of fashion e-commerce, they were divided into two categories. These categorizations allowed for the identification of research gaps in the use of AI. These gaps offer potential and possibilities for further research.
The use of new technologies along with the popularity of social networks has given the power of anonymity to the users. The ability to create an alter-ego with no relation to the actual user, creates a situation in which no one can certify the match between a profile and a real person. This problem generates situations, repeated daily, in which users with fake accounts, or at least not related to their real identity, publish news, reviews or multimedia material trying to discredit or attack other people who may or may not be aware of the attack. These acts can have great impact on the affected victims' environment generating situations in which virtual attacks escalate into fatal consequences in real life. In this article, we present a methodology to detect and associate fake profiles on Twitter social network which are employed for defamatory activities to a real profile within the same network by analysing the content of the comments generated by both profiles. Accompanying this approach we also present a successful real life use case in which this methodology was applied to detect and stop a cyberbullying situation in a real elementary school.
Over the last few years, computers and smartphones have become essential tools in our ways of communicating with each other. Nowadays, the amount of applications in the Google store has grown exponentially, therefore, malware developers have introduced malicious applications in that market. The Android system uses the Dalvik virtual machine. Through reverse engineering, we may be able to get the different opcodes for each application. For this reason, in this paper an approach to detect malware on Android is presented, by using the techniques of reverse engineering and putting an emphasis on operational codes used for these applications. After obtaining these opcodes, machine learning techniques are used to classify apps.
This paper presents the design of a multi-objective tool for sizing shell and tube heat exchangers (STHX), developed under a University/Industry collaboration. This work aims to show the feasibility of implementing artificial intelligence tools during the design of Heat Exchangers in industry. The design of STHX optimisation tools using artificial intelligence algorithms is a visited topic in the literature, nevertheless, the degree of implementation of this concept is uncommon in industrial companies. Thus, the challenge of this research consists of the development of a tool for the design of STHX using artificial intelligence algorithms that can be used by industrial companies. The approach is implemented using a simulated dataset contrasted with ARA TT, the company taking part in the project. The given dataset to develop a theoretical STHX calculator was modeled using MATLAB. This dataset was used to train seven neural networks (NNs). Three of them were mono-objective, one per objective to predict, and four were multi-objective. The last multi-objective NN was used to develop an inverse neural network (INN), which is used to find the optimal configuration of the STHXs. In this specific case, three design parameters, the pressure drop on the shell side, the pressure drop on the tube side and heat transfer rate, were jointly and successfully optimised. As a conclusion, this work proves that the developed tool is valid in both terms of effectiveness and user-friendliness for companies like ARA TT to improve their business activity.
