In this work, a tool for inferring the degree of difficulty of cooking recipes will be proposed. The inference will be made by the textual classification of the recipe preparation methods. The tool will be a fundamental piece to the development of a context-aware cooking recipe recommendation system. Some of the main classifiers in Text Classification literature will be adopted, in addition to different feature extraction methods. An experimental evaluation is performed, in order to select the best approaches to compose the system.

ENIAC is a national forum for researchers, practitioners, educators and students to present and discuss innovations, trends, experiences, developments and work in progress in the fields of Artificial and Computational Intelligence. CTDIAC is a satellite event whose goals are to disseminate and award the best dissertations and theses (MSc and PhDs concluded in Brazilian universities from June 2018 to May 2020) in Artificial and Computational Intelligence areas.

In this year, the Symposium on Knowledge Discovery, Mining and Learning (KDMiLe) will be held in conjunction with BRACIS 2020. This sysposium aims at integrating researchers, practitioners, developers, students and users to present their research results, to discuss ideas, and to exchange techniques, tools, and practical experiences – related to the Data Mining and Machine Learning areas.

Presentation of the article A glance of gastronomic tourism: A case on TripAdvisor, in which the steps and methods used to extract knowledge from online reviews of Brazilian restaurants will be explained.

The correct identification of plants species is an important task in several areas. The identification is even more important when the consumption and use of those plants are adopted as a way of preventing and treating diseases, where incorrect classification can bring serious consequences. In this work, an automatic plant species identification system is proposed, using machine learning and computer vision techniques. For the experimental evaluation, a real database of medicinal plants, composed of color, shape and texture features from the leaves, is proposed. Some of the main classifiers in the Machine Learning literature were adopted and evaluated.

Medicinal Plant Recognition Using Color, Texture and Shape Features

The quota traveling car renter problem (QCaRS) consists of minimizing the cost of a trip between a group of cities, visiting only a subgroup, and ensuring the visit of cities that meet with minimum satisfaction for the traveler. Evolutionary algorithms are methods often used to solve the QCaRS problem. Reproducing the results obtained by existing algorithms in the literature can be difficult if the authors did not make their implementations available. This paper presents a C++ library for the development of evolutionary algorithms applied to QCaRS. The library uses the Strategy design pattern to provide the exchange of components of evolutionary algorithms and thus facilitate the evaluation of new solution proposals for the QCaRS problem.

Floresta Aleatória é um algoritmo popular e efetivo na resolução de problemas de classificação e regressão. As predições de uma Floresta Aleatória são feitas considerando que cada árvore possui igual contribuição no resultado final. Este trabalho propõe um novo método de ponderação de árvores de regressão com o objetivo de melhorar o poder de predição do modelo. Nossa estratégia é motivada em utilizar medidas de dispersão estatística, como desvio padrão ou erro padrão da média, como indicadores de qualidade da predição na folha. A estratégia de ponderação proposta foi comparada com outros métodos de ponderação. Nessa comparação observou-se que a mesma reduziu o Erro Absoluto Médio em cerca de 30% dos conjuntos de dados estudados.

We introduce robot journalists that cover two pressing topics in
Brazilian society: COVID-19 spread and Legal Amazon deforestation. Our approach is able to automatically analyse structured domain data, select relevant
content, generate news texts and publish them on the Web. We provide a thorough description of our system architecture, report on the results of automatic evaluation, discuss some of the advantages of robot-journalism in society, and point out further steps in our work. Corpus and code are publicly available.

Even though social networks can provide free space for discussing ideas, people can also use them to propagate Hate Speech and, given the amount of written material in such networks, it becomes necessary to rely on automatic methods for identifying this problem. In this work, we set out to verify the use of some classic Machine Learning algorithms for the task of Hate Speech detection in tweets written in Portuguese, by testing four different models (SVM, MLP, Logistic Regression and Naïve Bayes) with different configurations

The Brazilian Digital Library of Thesis and Dissertations (BDTD) provides essential data to support many social sciences investigations. Nevertheless, there is still a lack of computation tools tailored for helping extract and analyze the necessary information from the BDTD library. In this paper, we discuss the development of computational solutions to answer questions from a particular social sciences research using metadata from BDTD. The solutions involve the integration of data processing and presentation techniques, such as string-processing algorithms, knowledge graphs and information visualizations. All programming codes implemented at the scope of the project are available for helping other researchers. The paper also highlights the importance of having researchers from Social Science and Computer Science working together, what motivates future collaborations in these areas.

Glaucoma is a significant cause of blindness in the world. Doctors use computerized images to detect these diseases. Early detection of the disease increases the chances of treatment, reducing the adverse effects. This work proposes an evaluation of texture maps combinations as input to Convolutional Neural Networks for glaucoma classification in retinal images. In our experiments, we used three textures maps, three CNN architectures, and three classifiers. We achieve a Kappa = 0.708+-0.054 and a Accuracy = 0.859+-0.021. We conclude that using the combination of texture maps can improve the automatic detection of glaucoma compared to single-channel inputs, and could be used by state-of-the-art methods to improve their classification rates.

Evaluation of Texture Maps as Input to Extract Deep Features in Glaucoma Diagnosis

Approximate Computing is an emerging paradigm that takes advantage of inherently error resilient digital circuits to design circuits with higher energetic efficiency, lower delay, or a smaller occupied area on the chips. Traditional approaches do not handle multiple objectives and metaheuristics appear as a proper alternative. In particular, Multiobjective Cartesian Genetic Programming (MOCGP) can find good solutions to the design and optimization of approximate circuits. The performance of CGP depends on the mutation adopted, as normally CGP only uses mutation for creating new solutions. However, to the best of our knowledge, just the traditional point mutation (PM) was used by the previously proposed MOCGP. Thus, the literature lacks an analysis of the best mutation operators of MOCGP. We propose here the analysis of PM and Single Active Mutation(SAM) on the multiobjective optimization of 15 heterogeneous combinational logic circuits from scratch and starting with a feasible solution. The results indicate that SAM obtained better results than PM.

This presentation brings the application of the Fuzzy Triangular Naive Bayes method for assessment of users in a simulator for training in gynecological examination. This method is interesting for data that can be modeled by triangular statistical distribution. The method was analyzed with simulated data that represent two variables present in one of the stages of a gynecological examination. The performance of Fuzzy Triangular Naive Bayes are considered satisfactory when compared to a version that does not use fuzzy logic.
