Resulting in China becoming the largest trading partner of many African countries. China’s ever-growing economy

Researcher: Mamphaga Ratshilengo, University of Venda, JohannesburgSupervisor: Dr Farai Mlambo, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg Wavelet is a wavy oscillation with width, scale, or magnitude that begin at zero point, rises, and decline to zero again [1]. Neural network (NN) is a series of algorithms aims in

Researcher: Sindisiwe Zulu, University of the Witwatersrand, JohannesburgSupervisor: Mr Rendani Mbuvha, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg Wind energy is seen as the next promising renewable energy to be used for future power generation. The stochastic wind behavior has resulted in the development of improved wind forecasting techniques.

Researcher: Seleme Shoky, University of VendaSupervisor: Dr Farai Mlambo, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg Each year credit card fraud is growing significantly with the advancements of technology resulting in extreme losses to those affected. We build ML model to detect fraudulent activity in credit card transaction systems.

Researcher: Makgoka Nkoana, University of the Witwatersrand, JohannesburgSupervisor: Dr Farai Mlambo, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg Wavelet Neural Networks were inspired by neural networks as well as wavelet decomposition, and as such Zhang and Beneveniste sort to combine the two concepts. This particular network is often used
