Brain tumors are the 10th leading reason for the death which is common among the adults and children. On the basis of texture, region, and shape there exists various types of tumor, and each one has the chances of survival very low. The wrong classification can lead to the worse consequences. As a result, these had to be properly divided into the many classes or grades, which is where multiclass classification comes into play. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) pictures are the most acceptable manner or method for representing the human brain for identifying the various tumors. Recent developments in image classification technology have made great strides, and the most popular and better approach that has been considered best in this area is CNN, and therefore, CNN is used for the brain tumor classification issue in this paper. The proposed model was successfully able to classify the brain image into four different classes, namely, no tumor indicating the given MRI of the brain does not have the tumor, glioma, meningioma, and pituitary tumor. This model produces an accuracy of 99%.

CNN Based Multiclass Brain Tumor Detection Using Medical Imaging

During data transmission, a decentralised Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) might result in high Energy Consumption (EC) and a short Network Lifetime (NLife). To address these difficulties, an on-demand Power and Load-Aware multipath node-disjoint source routing is presented based on the Enhanced Opportunistic Routing (PLAEOR) protocol. This unique protocol aims at using power, load, and latency to manage routing costs depending on control packet flooding from the destination node. However, the exchange of control packets from the target to all nodes may impact network efficiency. As a result, the PLAEOR is designed with a Multichannel Cooperative Neighbor Discovery (MCND) protocol to locate the nearby cooperative nodes for each node in the routing path during control packet transmission. Furthermore, when the packet rate of CBR is 20 packets/sec, the simulated results show that the PLAEOR-MCND achieves 120 sec of NLife and 20 J of EC than the state-of-the-art protocols.

Delay-Driven Opportunistic Routing with Multichannel Cooperative Neighbor Discovery for Industry 4.0 Wireless Networks Based on Power and Load Awareness

Human pose estimation is a profound, established computer vision issue that has uncovered numerous past difficulties. Breaking down human exercise is advantageous in multiple fields like surveillance, biometrics, and many healthcare applications. Workout with yoga poses is famous these days since yoga activities can expand adaptability and muscular quality, and the respiration procedure will be improvised. The yoga postures evaluation is hard to check, so specialists will most likely be unable to benefit from the exercises ultimately. IoT-based yoga frameworks are required for individuals who need to rehearse Yoga at home. A few studies are recommended camera-oriented or wearable gadget-oriented yoga posture finding strategies with more precision. Nonetheless, camera-based plans have security and privacy issues, and the wearable device-based methods are illogical in the earlier applications. To build such systems, one must have a strong foundation and current research in pose estimation. In this paper, first, the impact of Yoga on humans with various stress levels is analysed on the real-time data. Second, the comprehensive review of yoga posture recognition systems from machine learning to deep learning strategies and evaluation metrics discussed

The Analysis of the Impact of Yoga on Healthcare and Conventional Strategies for Human Pose Recognition

Lung cancer is the cellular fission of abnormal cells inside the lungs that leads to 72% of total deaths worldwide. Lung cancer are also recognized to be one of the leading causes of mortality, with a chance of survival of only 19%. Tumors can be diagnosed using a variety of procedures, including X-rays, CT scans, biopsies, and PET-CT scans. From the above techniques, Computer Tomography (CT) scan technique is considered to be one of the most powerful tools for an early diagnosis of lung cancers. Recently, machine and deep learning algorithms have picked up peak energy, and this aids in building a strong diagnosis and prediction system using CT scan images. But achieving the best performances in diagnosis still remains on the darker side of the research. To solve this problem, this paper proposes novel saliency-based capsule networks for better segmentation and employs the optimized pre-trained transfer learning for the better prediction of lung cancers from the input CT images. The integration of capsule-based saliency segmentation leads to the reduction and eventually reduces the risk of computational complexity and overfitting problem. Additionally, hyperparameters of pretrained networks are tuned by the whale optimization algorithm to improve the prediction accuracy by sacrificing the complexity. The extensive experimentation carried out using the LUNA-16 and LIDC Lung Image datasets and various performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, specificity, and F1-score are evaluated and analyzed. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework has achieved the peak performance of 98.5% accuracy, 99.0% precision, 98.8% recall, and 99.1% F1-score and outperformed the DenseNet, AlexNet, Resnets-50, Resnets-100, VGG-16, and Inception models.

A deep learning based convolutional neural network model with VGG16 feature extractor for the detection of Alzheimer Disease using MRI scans

Elderly people are the assets of the country and the government can ensure their peaceful and healthier life. Life expectancy of individuals has expanded with technological advancements and survey tells that the elderly population will become double in the year 2030. The noninfectious cognitive dysfunction is the most important risk factor among elderly people due to a decline in their physiological function. Alzheimer, Vascular Dementia, and Dementia are the key reasons for cognitive inabilities. These diseases require manual assistance, which is difficult to provide in this fast-growing world. Prevention and early detection are the wise solution for the above diseases. Diabetes and hypertension are considered as main risk factors allied with Alzheimer's disease. Our proposed work applies a two-stage classification technique to improve prediction accuracy. In the first stage, we train a Support vector machine and a Random Forest algorithm to analyze the influence of diabetes and high blood pressure on cognitive decline. In the second stage, the cognitive function of the person with the possibility of Dementia is assessed using the neuropsychological test called Cognitive Ability Test (CAT). Multinomial Logistic Regression algorithm is applied to CAT results to predict the possibility of cognitive decline in their postlife. We classified the risk factor using the operational definitions: “No Alzheimer’s,” “Uncertain Alzheimer’s,” and “Definite Alzheimer’s”. SVM of stage 1 classifier predicts with an accuracy of 0.86 and Random Forest with an accuracy of 0.71. Multinomial Logistic algorithm of stage 2 classifier accuracy is 0.89. The proposed work enables early prediction of a person at risk of Alzheimer's Disease using clinical data.

Introduction: Increase in computing power and the deeper usage of the robust computing systems in the financial system is propelling the business growth, improving the operational efficiency of the financial institutions, and increasing the effectiveness of the transaction processing solutions used by the organizations. Problem: Despite that the financial institutions are relying on the credit scoring patterns for analyzing the credit worthiness of the clients, still there are many factors that are imminent for improvement in the credit score evaluation patterns. There is need for improving the pattern to enhance the quality of analysis. Objective: Machine learning is offering immense potential in Fintech space and determining a personal credit score. Organizations by applying deep learning and machine learning techniques can tap individuals who are not being serviced by traditional financial institutions. Methodology: One of the major insights into the system is that the traditional models of banking intelligence solutions are predominantly the programmed models that can align with the information and banking systems that are used by the banks. But in the case of the machine-learning models that rely on algorithmic systems require more integral computation which is intrinsic. Hence, it can be advocated that the models usually need to have some decision lines wherein the dynamic calibration model must be streamlined. Such structure demands the dynamic calibration to have a decision tree system to empower with more integrated model changes. Results: The test analysis of the proposed machine learning model indicates effective and enhanced analysis process compared to the non-machine learning solutions. The model in terms of using various classifiers indicate potential ways in which the solution can be significant. Conclusion: If the systems can be developed to align with more pragmatic terms for analysis, it can help in improving the process conditions of customer profile analysis, wherein the process models have to be developed for comprehensive analysis and the ones that can make a sustainable solution for the credit system management. Originality: The proposed solution is effective and the one conceptualized to improve the credit scoring system patterns. If the model can be improved with more effective parameters and learning metrics, it can be sustainable outcome. Limitations: The model is tested in isolation and not in comparison to any of the existing credit scoring patterns. Only the inputs in terms of shortcomings from the existing models are taken in to account and accordingly the proposed solution is developed.

Review of Machine Learning models for Credit Scoring Analysis

The Internet of Things (IoT) is bringing a new dimension to the smart farming market. This helps the user to collect the data from the agricultural fields in real time and move it to remote areas for processing. With the available sensor data and the image taken from the fields, automated disease prediction is possible. Deep neural network is used for classification of disease using the leaf images. Agriculture is the backbone of our country, but our output is poor when compared to the global standards due to lack of using technologies in the fields. In this work, various sensors like humidity sensor, pH level monitoring sensor, Temperature sensor, and Soil moisture sensor are used in the agricultural fields for collecting the real-time data. Multiple Sensors are installed in various locations of farms with one common controller Raspberry PI 3 module (RPI3), which was used to control all these sensors. Camera interfacing with RPI can be observed on leaf disease. Convolutional neural network architecture is used for leaf disease detection and classification. The accuracy of the disease classification system using convolutional neural network is 96% when the system is iterated for 50 epochs.

Early diagnosis in the case of the sleep apnea has its own set of benefits for treating the cases. However, there are many challenges and limitations that impact the current conditions for testing. In this manuscript, a model is proposed for early diagnosis of OSA, using the non-conventional metrics. Profoundly, the metrics used are combination of symptoms, causes, and effects of the problem. Using a machine learning model and two sets of classifiers, the inputs collected as part of the training datasets are used for analysis. The data classifiers used for the model tests are NB and SVM. In a comparative analysis of the results, it is imperative that SVM classifier-based training of the proposed algorithm is giving more effective performance.
