    Ensuring the security of picture data on a network presents considerable difficulties because of the requirement for conventional embedding systems, which ultimately leads to subpar performance. It poses a risk of unauthorized data acquisition and misuse. Moreover, the previous image security-based techniques faced several challenges, including high execution times. As a result, a novel framework called Graph Convolutional-Based Twofish Security (GCbTS) was introduced to secure the images used in healthcare. The medical data are gathered from the Kaggle site and included in the proposed architecture. Preprocessing is performed on the data inserted to remove noise, and the hash 1 value is computed. Using the generated key, these separated images are put through the encryption process to encrypt what they contain. Additionally, to verify the user’s identity, the encrypted data calculates the hash 2 values contrasted alongside the hash 1 value. Following completion of the verification procedure, the data are restored to their original condition and made accessible to authorized individuals by decrypting them with the collective key. Additionally, to determine the effectiveness, the calculated results of the suggested model are connected to the operational copy, which depends on picture privacy.

    Malignant lymphoma, which impacts the lymphatic system, presents diverse challenges in accurate diagnosis due to its varied subtypes—chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), follicular lymphoma (FL), and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Lymphoma is a form of cancer that begins in the lymphatic system, impacting lymphocytes, which are a specific type of white blood cell. This research addresses these challenges by proposing ensemble and non-ensemble transfer learning models employing pre-trained weights from VGG16, VGG19, DenseNet201, InceptionV3, and Xception. For the ensemble technique, this paper adopts a stack-based ensemble approach. It is a two-level classification approach and best suited for accuracy improvement. Testing on a multiclass dataset of CLL, FL, and MCL reveals exceptional diagnostic accuracy, with DenseNet201, InceptionV3, and Xception exceeding 90% accuracy. The proposed ensemble model, leveraging InceptionV3 and Xception, achieves an outstanding 99% accuracy over 300 epochs, surpassing previous prediction methods. This study demonstrates the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed approach, showcasing its potential in real-world medical applications for precise lymphoma diagnosis.

    <abstract><p>Fake face identity is a serious, potentially fatal issue that affects every industry from the banking and finance industry to the military and mission-critical applications. This is where the proposed system offers artificial intelligence (AI)-based supported fake face detection. The models were trained on an extensive dataset of real and fake face images, incorporating steps like sampling, preprocessing, pooling, normalization, vectorization, batch processing and model training, testing-, and classification via output activation. The proposed work performs the comparative analysis of the three fusion models, which can be integrated with Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) based on the performance evaluation. The Model-3, which contains the combination of DenseNet-201+ResNet-102+Xception, offers the highest accuracy of 0.9797, and the Model-2 with the combination of DenseNet-201+ResNet-50+Inception V3 offers the lowest loss value of 0.1146; both are suitable for the GAN integration. Additionally, the Model-1 performs admirably, with an accuracy of 0.9542 and a loss value of 0.1416. A second dataset was also tested where the proposed Model-3 provided maximum accuracy of 86.42% with a minimum loss of 0.4054.</p></abstract>

    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    The adoption of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS) and metaheuristic optimization approaches has been widely observed in recent research. Even so, integrating these methods improves the model’s capability to solve complex problems. A novel enhanced prediction method based on COOT bird optimization was developed for selecting the optimal parameters of ANFIS in the current study. This method combines COOT optimization with ANFIS to model the quality of service (QoS) characteristics of web services by using the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system COOT (ANFIS-COOT). In this instance, the quality of the web service (QWS) dataset was obtained from the GitHub database, which consists of 120 web services data, and then evaluated using the presented model on the dataset for estimating response time and throughput of web services. As significant evidence of ANFIS-COOT’s efficiency, the similar QWS data set is analyzed using four different prediction models: ANFIS, ANFIS-Beetle Antennae Search (ANFIS-BAS), ANFIS-Reptile Search Algorithm (ANFIS-RSA), and ANFIS-Snake Optimizer (ANFIS-SO). Moreover, the exploratory study used statistical benchmarks such as root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and determination coefficient (<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$R^{2}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>) to emphasize the accuracy of the proposed model. Based on analysis results, the presented model achieved optimal values of RMSE (59.7473), MAE (15.8531), MAPE (0.0705), and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$R^{2}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> of 96.32 %, as well as RMSE (1.335), MAE (1.1255), MAPE (0.1818), and <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$R^{2}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> of 97.12 % for modelling response time and throughput of web services, compared to other models. Eventually, this report demonstrates the viability of the ANFIS-COOT while tackling a complex problem and improving predictive performance.

  • FedEHR: A Federated Learning Approach towards the Prediction of Heart Diseases in IoT-Based Electronic Health Records

    MDPI AG
    In contemporary healthcare, the prediction and identification of cardiac diseases is crucial. By leveraging the capabilities of Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled devices and Electronic Health Records (EHRs), the healthcare sector can largely benefit to improve patient outcomes by increasing the accuracy of disease prediction. However, protecting data privacy is essential to promote participation and adhere to rules. The suggested methodology combines EHRs with IoT-generated health data to predict heart disease. For its capacity to manage high-dimensional data and choose pertinent features, a soft-margin L1-regularised Support Vector Machine (sSVM) classifier is used. The large-scale sSVM problem is successfully solved using the cluster primal–dual splitting algorithm, which improves computational complexity and scalability. The integration of federated learning provides a cooperative predictive analytics methodology that upholds data privacy. The use of a federated learning framework in this study, with a focus on peer-to-peer applications, is crucial for enabling collaborative predictive modeling while protecting the confidentiality of each participant’s private medical information.

    Sign language recognition is a worldwide concern across the globe. The use of technology has a scope in aiding the necessary help in the recognition of sign language. The major challenge lies in detecting and understanding signs, as the language differs across the various geographical regions, and there are no specific rules for understanding them. Hence, this research article uses a transfer learning algorithm with TensorFlow object detection to recognize Indian sign language. The proposed model has achieved an accuracy of around 97.87% for different types of sentences used in the experimentation. The main advantage of the proposed model is that it is feasible to identify Indian sign language and produce the corresponding voice output using speech synthesis system. The system is helpful to the deaf and dumb community's society and encourages such people's upliftment.

  • Blockchain-based IoT e-healthcare
    Harpreet Kaur Channi and Chiranji Lal Chowdhary

    IGI Global
    Numerous industries, including e-healthcare, are capitalizing on and using blockchain and internet of things (IoT) technology. IoT devices may collect patient vitals and other sensory information in real-time, which medical professionals can then examine. All information gathered from the internet of things is stored, processed, and computed in one place. Such concentration raises concerns since it increases the likelihood of a catastrophic failure, distrust, tampering with data, and even the circumvention of privacy protections. By offering decentralized processing and storage for IoT data, blockchain has the potential to address these critical issues. As a result, designing a decentralized IoT-based e-healthcare system that incorporates IoT and blockchain technology might be a viable option. First, the authors provide some context about blockchain in this essay. The viability of blockchain systems for the internet of things-based e-healthcare is then assessed.

    Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
    Object formation is imperative to the recent computer vision, pattern recognition, healthcare, and automation applications. The objects are generated from images by defining edges and the segmentation process. This article introduced a novel method, Outer Totality Cellular Automata (OTCA), for defining actual and continuous edges of the image objects. The OTCA analysis nearby 25 neighbourhood pixels of all the pixels and generate a unique and efficient threshold. The proposed method has three primary functions, i.e. vitality, rule mapping, and improved morphological functions. The key objectives are image smoothing, neighbourhood analysis, defining game of life rule, and edges smoothing. Notably, the proposed method aimed to segment different coloured images, i.e., RGB, HSV, and YUV. The proposed method also aimed to produce more truthful results on blurred, reflected, shaded night vision images. The experimental process demonstrates using standard open-source datasets and validated using image quality assessment parameters, i.e., entropy, PSNR, SSIM, and MSE. The results claim 3% – 12% more structural analogous, factual, and accurate than existing classical methods and recent searches.
