Herbarium contains treasures of millions of specimens which have been preserved for several years for scientific studies. To speed up more scientific discoveries, a digitization of these specimens is currently on going to facilitate easy access and sharing of its data to a wider scientific community. Online digital repositories such as IDigBio and GBIF have already accumulated millions of specimen images yet to be explored. This presents a perfect time to automate and speed up more novel discoveries using machine learning and computer vision. In this study, a thorough analysis and comparison of more than 50 peer-reviewed studies which focus on application of computer vision and machine learning techniques to digitized herbarium specimen have been examined. The study categorizes different techniques and applications which have been commonly used and it also highlights existing challenges together with their possible solutions. It is our hope that the outcome of this study will serve as a strong foundation for beginners of the relevant field and will also shed more light for both computer science and ecology experts.

Machine learning may enable the automated generation of test oracles. We have characterized emerging research in this area through a systematic literature review examining oracle types, researcher goals, the ML techniques applied, how the generation process was assessed, and the open research challenges in this emerging field. Based on a sample of 22 relevant studies, we observed that ML algorithms generated test verdict, metamorphic relation, and - most commonly - expected output oracles. Almost all studies employ a supervised or semi-supervised approach, trained on labeled system executions or code metadata - including neural networks, support vector machines, adaptive boosting, and decision trees. Oracles are evaluated using the mutation score, correct classifications, accuracy, and ROC. Work-to-date show great promise, but there are significant open challenges regarding the requirements imposed on training data, the complexity of modeled functions, the ML algorithms employed - and how they are applied - the benchmarks used by researchers, and replicability of the studies. We hope that our findings will serve as a roadmap and inspiration for researchers in this field.
Federated learning is an emerging machine learning paradigm where clients train models locally and formulate a global model based on the local model updates. To identify the state-of-the-art in federated learning and explore how to develop federated learning systems, we perform a systematic literature review from a software engineering perspective, based on 231 primary studies. Our data synthesis covers the lifecycle of federated learning system development that includes background understanding, requirement analysis, architecture design, implementation, and evaluation. We highlight and summarise the findings from the results, and identify future trends to encourage researchers to advance their current work.
Abnormal gait, its associated falls and complications have high patient morbidity, mortality. Computer vision detects, predicts patient gait abnormalities, assesses fall risk and serves as clinical decision support tool for physicians. This paper per forms a systematic review of how computer vision, machine learning models perform an abnormal patients gait assessment. Computer vision is beneficial in gait analysis, it helps capture the patient posture. Several literature suggests the use of different machine learning algorithms such as SVM, ANN, K-Star, Random Forest, KNN, among others to perform the classification on the features extracted to study patient gait abnormalities.
Machine translation (MT) plays an important role in benefiting linguists, sociologists, computer scientists, etc. by processing natural language to translate it into some other natural language. And this demand has grown exponentially over past coupl e of years, considering the enormous exchange of information between different regions with different regional languages. Machine Translation poses numerous challenges, some of which are: a) Not all words in one language has equivalent word in another language b) Two given languages may have completely different structures c) Words can have more than one meaning. Owing to these challenges, along with many others, MT has been active area of research for more than five decades. Numerous methods have been proposed in the past which either aim at improving the quality of the translations generated by them, or study the robustness of these systems by measuring their performance on many different languages. In this literature review, we discuss statistical approaches (in particular word-based and phrase-based) and neural approaches which have gained widespread prominence owing to their state-of-the-art results across multiple major languages.

Blockchain has been increasingly used as a software component to enable decentralisation in software architecture for a variety of applications. Blockchain governance has received considerable attention to ensure the safe and appropriate use and evol ution of blockchain, especially after the Ethereum DAO attack in 2016. To understand the state-of-the-art of blockchain governance and provide an actionable guidance for academia and practitioners, in this paper, we conduct a systematic literature review, identifying 34 primary studies. Our study comprehensively investigates blockchain governance via 5W1H questions. The study results reveal several major findings: 1) the adaptation and upgrade of blockchain are the primary purposes of blockchain governance, while both software quality attributes and human value attributes need to be increasingly considered; 2) blockchain governance mainly relies on the project team, node operators, and users of a blockchain platform; and 3) existing governance solutions can be classified into process mechanisms and product mechanisms, which mainly focus on the operation phase over the blockchain platform layer.
