  • Detection of diabetic retinopathy and classification of its stages by using convolutional neural network
    Sachin Gaur, Anirudh Kandwal, Bhaskar Pandey
    Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2025
    Diabetes detection is pivotal in disease management and complication prevention. Traditional screening methods, like blood tests, are invasive and time-consuming. Deep learning has emerged as a non-invasive and automated alternative for diabetes detection. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) excel in image analysis tasks, making them ideal for this purpose. This paper employs a CNN-based method for diabetes prediction using retinal images, utilizing the DenseNet169 architecture for feature extraction and diabetic retinopathy (DR) prediction. The APTOS 2019 blindness detection dataset from Kaggle, containing around 13,000 retinal images, is used for training. Pre-processing and normalization precede feature extraction, followed by the prediction of the DR stage. The model aims to classify retinal images into five stages of DR (0 to 4), ranging from no DR to proliferative DR. Our model achieved over 82% accuracy, outperforming advanced algorithms. Model evaluation includes accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score measures.
  • Efficient virtual machine placement in cloud computing environment using BSO-ANN based hybrid technique
    Pradeep Singh Rawat, Sachin Gaur, Varun Barthwal, Punti Gupta, Debjani Ghosh, Deepak Gupta, Joel JP C. Rodrigues
    Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2025
    Cloud computing has revolutionized the way businesses and individuals access and utilize computing resources. Efficient virtual machine placement is a critical aspect of optimizing resource utilization, reducing operational costs, energy consumption, service level agreement and minimum virtual machine migrations, execution time, and ensuring the overall performance of cloud services. This manuscript introduces a novel approach that combines the creative problem-solving capabilities of brainstorming with the computational power of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) to address the virtual machine placement problem in cloud environments. In this study, we propose a hybrid technique that leverages the collective intelligence of human brainstorming to generate a diverse set of placement strategies. These strategies are then evaluated, refined, and optimized using an ANN model trained on historical cloud resource allocation workload logs. By integrating the human creative process with the data-driven predictive capabilities of ANN, our approach aims to overcome the limitations of traditional virtual machine placement algorithms, which often struggle to adapt to dynamic workloads and changing resource requirements. The manuscript provides a detailed description of the hybrid technique, including the process of brainstorming for generating placement strategies, data collection and preprocessing, ANN model development, and the integration of these components into an efficient placement system. We present experimental results demonstrating the effectiveness of our approach in optimizing resource allocation, improving service performance, and optimizing resource utilization, reducing energy consumption, service level agreement and minimum virtual machine migrations, reducing execution time compared to existing static, and meta-heuristic methods. The proposed Brain Storming with ANN based Hybrid Technique offers a promising solution for enhancing the efficiency of virtual machine placement in cloud computing environments. BSO-ANN outperforms the existing techniques using performance metrics (energy consumption(Kwh), execution time(ms), SLA violations, and number of migrations). It combines human ingenuity with data-driven insights to adapt to the ever-changing dynamics of cloud workloads. This manuscript contributes to the ongoing research in cloud resource management, offering a practical approach for cloud service providers and organizations to better utilize their resources and enhance the overall quality of cloud-based services. © 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

    International Journal of Electrical and Electronics Research, 2024
    Recent developments in deep learning techniques have led to remarkable progress in facial recognition. As a component of biometric verification, human face recognition has become widely used in a variety of applications, including surveillance systems, home entry access, mobile face unlocking, and network security. Conventional facial recognition techniques are especially useful when dealing with low-resolution photos or difficult lighting situations. The K-nearest neighbor (KNN) classifier has been used in this paper. KNN is a non-parametric, instance-based learning algorithm that is commonly used for classification tasks. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and local binary pattern (LBP) are used in this study to develop face identification. Both contrast stretching and grayscale were used to ensure ease of computation. The study was conducted on two separate and through multiple tests with different values for k, the highest accuracy obtained was at k=1 for both datasets. The smaller user dataset achieved 91% accuracy and CASIA-WebFace obtained 87% model accuracy.

  • A Hybrid DWT-SVD Based Adaptive Image Watermarking Scheme
    Sachin Gaur, Navneet Tripathi, Jyoti Pandey
    Journal of Image and Graphics United Kingdom, 2023
    In the digital age, protecting the ownership and data veracity of digital documents is a major challenge. To address the issues concerning copyright protection and data verification of digital media, digital watermarking has emerged as a solution. In this paper, we aspire to make a modest contribution to this emerging and exciting field by presenting our proposed adaptive hybrid image watermarking approach that combines Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). Our method involves applying DWT to both the host image and watermark, followed by singular decomposition using SVD on the Low-Low (LL) component of both images. Now modify the singular values of the host image by the singular values of the watermark, and then inverse SVD is applied, followed by inverse DWT, to obtain the watermarked image. After that, the reverse process is applied to obtain the watermark image. Finally, we evaluate our approach’s performance by measuring the Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) between the original and watermarked image as well as the Normalized Cross-Correlation (NCC) between the original and extracted watermark. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method is rich in terms of robustness, imperceptibility and capacity than the previously presented schemes.
