HRL-GT: A Hybrid Reinforcement Learning and Game Theory Framework for Energy-Efficient Cluster Head Election and Routing in Underwater Sensor Networks Sivsakthiselvan S, Palanivelan M, Sridevi N, Purushothaman K E 2025 2nd International Conference on Computing and Data Science Iccds 2025, 2025 Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) are critical for various marine applications, including environmental monitoring, disaster prediction, and military surveillance. However, these networks face persistent challenges such as energy constraints, dynamic topology, and high propagation delays. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a novel Hybrid Reinforcement Learning with Game Theory (HRL-GT) framework for cluster head (CH) election and adaptive routing in UWSNs. The proposed model integrates a Deep Q-Network (DQN)-based learning agent for optimizing routing decisions with a game-theoretic approach for fair and energy-efficient CH selection. By jointly considering factors such as residual energy, node depth, and link quality, HRL-GT ensures both stability and adaptability in routing and clustering mechanisms. Performance evaluation through MATLAB simulations demonstrates that HRL-GT significantly improves network lifetime, reduces energy consumption, enhances packet delivery ratio (PDR), and minimizes CH change rates when compared to existing protocols such as EA-DBSEP-IoUT, DBSEP, and EEACA. The results validate the effectiveness of HRL-GT in extending the operational longevity and reliability of UWSNs in harsh underwater environments.
EA-DBSEP-IoUT: An Edge-Assisted Depth-Based Stable Election Protocol for Energy-Efficient Routing in IoUT Sivsakthiselvan S, Pavithra S, Purushothaman K E, P Radhakrishnan, Samsudeen S Proceedings of the 2025 11th International Conference on Communication and Signal Processing Iccsp 2025, 2025 The Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) is a rapidly evolving field with applications in environmental monitoring, disaster prevention, and military surveillance. However, underwater sensor networks face unique challenges, including high propagation delay, energy constraints, and dynamic topology changes. Traditional routing protocols such as the Stable Election Protocol for IoUT (SEP-IoUT) and Depth-Based Routing (DBR) suffer from inefficient cluster head (CH) selection, leading to rapid energy depletion. This paper proposes Edge-Assisted Depth-Based Stable Election Protocol for IoUT (EA-DBSEP-IoUT), an energy-efficient, edge-assisted adaptive clustering scheme. The proposed method integrates Reinforcement Learning (RL) for optimal CH selection, data aggregation at edge nodes, and multi-hop routing to reduce communication overhead. Simulation results demonstrate that EA-DBSEP-IoUT outperforms SEP-IoUT, Depth-Based Unequal Clustering (DBUC), and Energy-Efficient Depth-Based Routing (EEDBR) in terms of network lifetime, energy efficiency, and stability period.
Precision Driven Sentiment and Topic Classification of News Articles using IndicBert Model (IBM) Banu Priya Prathaban, R Subash, Ben Sujin, K.E. Purushothaman, G Lakshmi 2025 8th International Conference on Circuit Power and Computing Technologies Iccpct 2025, 2025 This paper explores the application of machine learning models for sentiment analysis and topic classification of news articles. We employed multiple models including VGGNet, Alexnet and advanced transformer-based models like IndicBERT model (IBM) to classify news articles based on their sentiment and topics. The study utilized a dataset of news headlines from Indian Express, leveraging TF-IDF vectorization and BERT embeddings for feature extraction. Our results show that VGGNet on IndicBERT (IBM) embeddings outperforms traditional methods in terms of accuracy, precision, and recall. We also demonstrate the effectiveness of these models through confusion matrices and performance metrics, highlighting the potential for improving news classification systems. The VGGNet model achieved strong performance with an accuracy of 87.5%, precision of 65%, recall of 70%, and an $F 1$ score of 68%, showing good balance in sentiment classification. Similarly, the Alexnet model performed comparably with an accuracy of 87.1%, precision of 61%, recall of 68%, and an F1 score of 65%.
Enhanced Variational Quantum Networks for EarlyAlzheimer's Detection: A Quantum-Classical Approach S. Samsudeen, M. Salomi Samsudeen, K.E. Purushothaman, P. Radhakrishnan, S. Sivasakthiselvan Proceedings of the 2025 11th International Conference on Communication and Signal Processing Iccsp 2025, 2025 The population aged 60 years is rapid increased to 20% of the total Indian population according to the statistics. Alzheimer is a disease which is a neurogenerative disorder. It is considered as the major cause of dementia. India is in critical scenario that faces increase in the elder population suffering from dementia. Hence, there arise a need for early diagnosis of Alzheimer disease (AD) in order to improve the patient’s mental health condition. Though, the existing diagnostic methods are accurate and fast computing, there arise a need to propose a model that aids in improved accuracy and reducing the computational time for early prediction of AD.The proposed model uses Enhanced variational Quantum Network(VAQ) that aids in improving the potential of AD in terms of accuracy and time complexity is designed to decide the feature extraction by processing the huge voluminous images and then fed the outcome into the classifier model. Alzheimer disease neuroimaging stage I and stage II are the datasets considered for applying VAQ for AD prediction. Both stage I and stage II dataset were combined together in order to process the resource efficiently for the diagnosis performs feature extraction and then the results been fed as input to the Quantum classifier. The classifier processes the data and classify the images as no dement, mild dement, average dement, very mild dement. The results are compared with already existing Convolutional Neural Network model (CNN) and Ensemble Classifier.
Analysis and Prediction of Road Accidents using Vision Transformer Model (VTM) Banu Priya Prathaban, D Saveetha, M. Sangeetha, Ashwini, K.E. Purushothaman, Ganeshkumar N 2025 8th International Conference on Circuit Power and Computing Technologies Iccpct 2025, 2025 Road safety is a significant global concern, as accidents result in substantial fatalities, injuries, and economic costs. This work aims to build an intelligent system using a vast historical dataset of accidents assessing and forecasting road accidents. The system develops a Vision Transformer Model (VTM) using Apache Spark’s distributed computing capability for data preprocessing and TensorFlow’s sophisticated machine learning capability. To forecast accident severity, the model combines many elements including weather conditions, road characteristics, temporal patterns, and location data. The study underlines the need of knowing accident-prone areas and underlying causes to improve road safety and eventually lower the frequency of the next accidents. The dataset we have used is a sample one month dataset from the referred public dataset on accident. We have implemented multiple deep learning classification models to predict the severity of the accidents including CNN models specifically CoAtNet, ConvNeXt and RegNet. Also, we have compared performance metrics with other classification models. Our study has resulted in testing accuracy of around 0.9567 and training accuracy of around 0.9834.
Brain Tumor Classification Using CNNs D Saveetha, Banu Priya Prathaban, A Rashmi, K. E. Purushothaman 4th International Conference on Power Energy Control and Transmission Systems Harnessing Power and Energy for an Affordable Electrification of India Icpects 2024, 2024 Brain tumors are abnormal cell growths in the brain that can have a major negative impact on one's health. For efficient treatment planning, brain tumor classification must be precise. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been an effective technique for the automated classification of brain tumors in recent years. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is the most popular neural network model for the image classification problem, which has attracted a lot of interest in recent years. In this paper, we suggest a CNN model for classifying brain tumors that performs quite well on a publicly accessible dataset. We contrast our model's performance with that of earlier research and talk about how our findings might have medical applications. Our findings demonstrate the need for more research in this field and show how well CNNs can classify brain tumors. The proposed CNN-based approach aims to accurately classify three major types of brain tumors, namely glioma, meningioma, and pituitary tumor. The results obtained from the experiments show promising results, with an accuracy of over 93%. The proposed CNN-based approach provides a reliable and efficient tool for the classification of brain tumors, which can aid in the accurate diagnosis and treatment planning of patients.
Multibiometric Authentication System Using Gesture Recognition K.E. Purushothaman, A. Ashwini, L.K.Balaji Vignesh, A. Mahadevan 2nd International Conference on Intelligent Cyber Physical Systems and Internet of Things Icoici 2024 Proceedings, 2024 To successfully increase the security of the system in today's environment, person authentication is required. It is undeniably true that most individuals would prefer to be authenticated in the simplest and most transparent way possible, without having to remember a personal identification number. Identity verification is necessary for many everyday activities. Both the ear and the palm's features are recorded, and corresponding feature vectors are created. The score level values are obtained following the fusion process, and the values below the threshold values are deleted and the values over the threshold values are authenticated using the Gaussian Log Gabor filtering method. In this regard, a multi-biometric system based on a person's gesture can be employed. It uses the complementing physical and behavioral characteristics of the ear and palm, two separate biometrics. The transfer function is the log Gabor method. The system's reliability is effectively increased by the aforementioned technique. The main benefit was created based on the merging of two biometric systems to enhance performance as a whole. Various feature extraction, feature matching, and data fusion approaches are used to determine the saliency and correlation of the data that each sensor has collected. The outcomes also imply that the proposed algorithms outperform existing algorithms in terms of performance.
