Multilayered Perceptron Feed-Forward Artificial Neural Network Approach for E-mail Classification

-- Ogwueleka Francisca Nonyelum

E-mail messages are originally designed to be sent and accumulated in repository for periodical use which amounts to the details of an event or a meeting’s upcoming agenda for a particular organization. These messages range from static organizational knowledge to conversations and pose a lot of difficulties to users in terms of prioritizing and processing of the contents of both stored and new incoming messages. This research has established a classification model which classifies the accumulated e-mails in the mail inbox known as dataset into four classes: critical, urgent, important and others. Electronic mail extractor application was designed and implanted to extract e-mail contents. The application used heuristic technique based on Term Frequency- Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) to determine what keywords in a dataset of e-mail messages might be more favorable to use in a query. Nuclass 7.1 Artificial Neural Network (ANN) software was used in the implementation of automated e-mail classification into userdefined word classes corresponding to preformatted class identity, and was able to learn in an associative learning approach, in which the network was trained by providing it with input and matching output patterns. This study showed that Neural Networks (NN) using Back Propagation (BP) technique combined with electronic mail extractor can be successfully used for automated e-mail classification into meaningful classes.

Machine Learning for Social Network Analysis: A Systematic Literature Review

--Sagar S De, Satchidananda Dehuri and Gi-Nam Wang

The importance of machine learning for social network analysis is realized as an inevitable tool in forthcoming years. This is due to the unprecedented growth of social-related data, boosted by the proliferation of social media websites and the embedded heterogeneity and complexity. Alongside the machine learning derives much effort from psychologists to build computational model for solving tasks like recognition, prediction, planning and analysis even in uncertain situations. Therefore, it is significant to study the synergy of machine learning techniques in social network analysis, focus on practical applications, and open avenues for further research. In this paper, we have reviewed the theoretical aspects of social network analysis with a combination of machine learning-based techniques, its representation, tools and techniques used for analysis. Additionally, the source of data and its applications are also highlighted in this paper.

Windows-Based and Web-Enabled ATMs: Issues and Scopes

--Jyotiranjan Hota

Single vendor ATM software applications and monitoring are less complex. However, it takes more time to monitor and update these ATMs with antiviruses and security patches. Closed operating systems like OS/2 were deployed along with X.25 or SNA-based network in single vendor ATMs. Multivendor ATMs were facilitated by central ATM monitoring software and open operating systems like Microsoft Windows with a support of TCP/IP-based networks. This paper discusses the scope and issues of common APIs in ATMs as well as ATM monitoring and application software in both single and multivendor ATMs. It also discusses the emergence of web-enabled ATMs.

A Newly Established Symmetric Key Encryption Algorithm for Small Amount of Data

-- K S S Narayana and G Veereswara Swamy

During data transmission between the source and the destination in a computer network, the data is exposed to external modifications with malicious intentions. Cryptography is widely used to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access and modifications while on transit. There are various forms of cryptographic algorithms used in computer communications and are broadly divided into two types—symmetric key and asymmetric key. Symmetric key algorithms are the quickest and most commonly used type of encryption like Data Encryption Standard (DES), International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA), Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), etc. In symmetric key algorithms, a single key is used for both encryption and decryption. In this paper, a new symmetric key algorithm is proposed. The advantages of this new algorithm are also explained.

Automated Teller Machines (ATMs): The Changing Face of Banking in India

Bank Management
Information and communication technology has changed the way in which banks provide services to its customers. These days the customers are able to perform their routine banking transactions without even entering the bank premises. ATM is one such development in recent years, which provides remote banking services all over the world, including India. This paper analyzes the development of this self-service banking in India based on the secondary data.

The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is playing a very important role in the progress and advancement in almost all walks of life. The deregulated environment has provided an opportunity to restructure the means and methods of delivery of services in many areas, including the banking sector. The ICT has been a focused issue in the past two decades in Indian banking. In fact, ICTs are enabling the banks to change the way in which they are functioning. Improved customer service has become very important for the very survival and growth of banking sector in the reforms era. The technological advancements, deregulations, and intense competition due to the entry of private sector and foreign banks have altered the face of banking from one of mere intermediation to one of provider of quick, efficient and customer-friendly services. With the introduction and adoption of ICT in the banking sector, the customers are fast moving away from the traditional branch banking system to the convenient and comfort of virtual banking. The most important virtual banking services are phone banking, mobile banking, Internet banking and ATM banking. These electronic channels have enhanced the delivery of banking services accurately and efficiently to the customers. The ATMs are an important part of a bank’s alternative channel to reach the customers, to showcase products and services and to create brand awareness. This is reflected in the increase in the number of ATMs all over the world. ATM is one of the most widely used remote banking services all over the world, including India. This paper analyzes the growth of ATMs of different bank groups in India.
International Scenario

If ATMs are largely available over geographically dispersed areas, the benefit from using an ATM will increase as customers will be able to access their bank accounts from any geographic location. This would imply that the value of an ATM network increases with the number of available ATM locations, and the value of a bank network to a customer will be determined in part by the final network size of the banking system. The statistical information on the growth of branches and ATM network in select countries.

Indian Scenario

The financial services industry in India has witnessed a phenomenal growth, diversification and specialization since the initiation of financial sector reforms in 1991. Greater customer orientation is the only way to retain customer loyalty and withstand competition in the liberalized world. In a market-driven strategy of development, customer preference is of paramount importance in any economy. Gone are the days when customers used to come to the doorsteps of banks. Now the banks are required to chase the customers; only those banks which are customercentric and extremely focused on the needs of their clients can succeed in their business today.
