RETINOPATHY DISEASE DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION USING COORDINATE ATTENTION MODULE BASED CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORK WITH LEAKY RECTIFIED LINEAR UNIT Pravin Balaso Chopade, Prabhakar N. Kota, Bhagvat D. Jadhav, Pravin Marotrao Ghate, Shriram Sadashiv Kulkarni Iium Engineering Journal, 2025 The detection of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is an emergent research topic in recent decades, where DR is a primary cause of vision loss in humans. The existing techniques have limitations such as neuron death issues, vanishing gradient, and output offset. To overcome these issues, this paper proposes a Deep Learning (DL)-based technique for early and accurate DR detection. The Coordinate Attention Module (CAM) based Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with Leaky Rectified Linear Unit (LReLU) is proposed for early and accurate detection of DR. The MESSIDOR dataset is preprocessed through the median filter to eliminate noise, and Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) is utilized to increase the contrast level in an input image. The preprocessed images are given to Mayfly Optimization Algorithm-based Region Growing (MOARG) for image segmentation. Then, the features are extracted using ResNet50 and SqueezeNet, which extract deep learning features. The extracted features are given to CAM-based CNN with LReLU to detect DR, which overcomes the dead issues of neurons and minimizes the probability of inactive neurons. The proposed model achieves better results on the MESSIDOR datasets on the metrics of accuracy, precision, recall, specificity, f1-score, and Area Under Curve (AUC) values of about 99.72%, 99.46%, 99.25%, 99.61%, 99.37% and 99.14%, correspondingly, proving to be superior to the existing method, Capsule Network and Hybrid Adaptive DL based DR (HADL-DR). ABSTRAK: Pengesanan Retinopati Diabetik (DR) merupakan topik penyelidikan yang semakin mendapat perhatian dalam dekad-dekad kebelakangan ini, di mana DR merupakan punca utama kehilangan penglihatan pada manusia. Teknik sedia ada mempunyai beberapa kekangan seperti isu kematian neuron, vanishing gradient, dan output offset. Untuk mengatasi isu-isu ini, kertas ini mencadangkan teknik berasaskan Pembelajaran Mendalam (DL) untuk pengesanan awal dan tepat bagi DR. Modul Coordinate Attention Module (CAM) berasaskan Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) dengan Leaky Rectified Linear Unit (LReLU) dicadangkan untuk pengesanan awal dan tepat bagi DR.

GLOBAL-LOCAL SELF-ATTENTION BASED LONG SHORT-TERM MEMORY WITH OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM FOR SPEAKER IDENTIFICATION Pravin Marotrao Ghate, Bhagvat D. Jadhav, Shriram Sadashiv Kulkarni, Pravin Balaso Chopade, Prabhakar N. Kota Iium Engineering Journal, 2025 Speaker identification (SI) involves recognizing a speaker from a group of unknown speakers, while speaker verification (SV) determines if a given voice sample belongs to a particular person. The main drawbacks of SI are session variability, noise in the background, and insufficient information. To mitigate the limitations mentioned above, this research proposes Global Local Self-Attention (GLSA) based Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) with Exponential Neighborhood – Grey Wolf Optimization (EN-GWO) method for effective speaker identification using TIMIT and VoxCeleb 1 datasets. The GLSA is incorporated in LSTM, which focuses on the required data, and the hyperparameters are tuned using the EN-GWO, which enhances speaker identification performance. The GLSA-LSTM with EN-GWO method acquires an accuracy of 99.36% on the TIMIT dataset, and an accuracy of 93.45% on the VoxCeleb 1 datasets, while compared to SincNet and Generative Adversarial Network (SincGAN) and Hybrid Neural Network – Support Vector Machine (NN-SVM). ABSTRAK: Pengenalpastian pembicara (Speaker Identification, SI) melibatkan pengenalan pembicara daripada kumpulan pembicara yang tidak dikenali, manakala pengesahan pembicara (Speaker Verification, SV) menentukan sama ada sampel suara tertentu milik seseorang individu. Kekurangan utama dalam SI ialah variasi sesi, bunyi latar belakang, dan maklumat yang tidak mencukupi. Untuk mengatasi kekangan tersebut, kajian ini mencadangkan kaedah Global Local Self-Attention (GLSA) berasaskan Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) dengan Pengoptimuman Grey Wolf Jiranan Eksponen (EN-GWO) bagi pengenalpastian pembicara yang berkesan menggunakan set data TIMIT dan VoxCeleb 1. GLSA digabungkan dalam LSTM yang memberi tumpuan pada data yang diperlukan, manakala parameter hiper ditala menggunakan EN-GWO untuk meningkatkan prestasi pengenalpastian pembicara. Kaedah GLSA-LSTM dengan EN-GWO mencapai ketepatan 99.36% pada dataset TIMIT dan ketepatan 93.45% pada dataset VoxCeleb 1, berbanding dengan SincNet dan Generative Adversarial Network (SincGAN) serta Hybrid Neural Network – Support Vector Machine (NN-SVM).
SIMULATED ANNEALING-SALP SWARM ALGORITHM BASED VARIATIONAL AUTOENCODER FOR PEAK-TO-AVERAGE POWER RATIO REDUCTION Prabhakar Narasappa Kota, Pravin Balaso Chopade, Bhagvat D Jadhav, Shriram Sadashiv Kulkarni, Pravin Marotrao Ghate International Journal of Computer Networks and Communications, 2025 Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) have achieved significant advancements in spectral effectiveness and data rates within wireless communication systems. However, it is accompanied by a critical challenge: the high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). This issue demands attention and effective solutions to ensure optimum performance and reliability of OFDM-based systems. Currently, deep Learning (DL) algorithms perform well on end-to-end wireless communication systems. This study introduces a novel approach to PAPR reduction in OFDM systems by integrating a Simulated AnnealingSalp Swarm Algorithm (SA-SSA) with a Variational AutoEncoder (VAE). The proposed method effectively mitigates peaks while preserving favorable spectral properties, thereby facilitating seamless PAPR migration. The SA-SSA - based VAE method is used to develop a peak-canceling signal method depending on the input signal which reduces the PAPR signal. Constellation mapping and remapping of symbols are considered in each subcarrier of the VAE method that minimizes the Bit Error Rate (BER) and PAPR in OFDM systems. To further improve the performance of VAE, proposed an SA-SSA algorithm that tuned the hyperparameters of the VAE method to select optimum hyperparameters of VAE for better performance. The performance of the developed method is analyzed with characteristics of BER, Symbol Error Rate (SER), and Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF) under various subcarriers. The proposed method obtained less PAPR of 1.9 dB, 2.0 dB, 2.4 dB, 2.8 dB, and 3.2 dB for 64, 128, 256, 512, and 1024 subcarriers which is less when compared to existing methods like Hyperparameter Tuned Deep Learning based Stacked Sparse Autoencoder (HPT-SSAE and Conditionally Applied Neural Network (CANN).
IOT RESOURCE ALLOCATION AND OPTIMIZATION USING IMPROVED REPTILE SEARCH ALGORITHM Prabhakar Narasappa Kota, Pravin Balaso Chopade, Bhagvat D. Jadhav, Pravin Marotrao Ghate, Shankar Dattatray Chavan International Journal of Computer Networks and Communications, 2023 The Internet of Things (IoT) is a dispersed network system that connects the world through the Internet. The architecture of IoT consists of more gateways and resources which cannot be allocated in a manual process. The allocation of resources in IoT is a challenging process due to the higher consumption of energy and high latency rate. To overcome the challenges in existing works, this research introduced an Improved Reptile Search Algorithm (IRSA) to solve the optimization problem which occurs during the time of allocation resources among IoT networks. IRSA employs the methodology of levy flight and cross-over to update the candidate position and enhance the search speed in a single iteration. The proposed method consumes less energy and has low latency during data transmission from User equipment (UE) to the base station.IRSA has been compared with the existing Scalable Resource Allocation Framework (SRAF) and Improved Chaotic Firefly Algorithm (ICFA). The obtained experimental results show that the proposed IRSA attained better performance with an allocation rate of 96.40% which is comparatively higher than SRAF and ICFA with 92.40% and 91.67% respectively.
Lucy Richardson and Mean Modified Wiener Filter for Construction of Super-Resolution Image Pravin Balaso Chopade, Prabhakar N. Kota, Bhagvat D. Jadhav, Pravin Marotrao Ghate, Shankar Dattatray Chavan International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering Systems, 2023 The ultimate goal of the Super-Resolution (SR) technique is to generate the High-Resolution (HR) image by combining the corresponding images with Low-Resolution (LR), which is utilized for different applications such as surveillance, remote sensing, medical diagnosis, etc. The original HR image may be corrupted due to various causes such as warping, blurring, and noise addition. SR image reconstruction methods are frequently plagued by obtrusive restorative artifacts such as noise, stair casing effect, and blurring. Thus, striking a balance between smoothness and edge retention is never easy. By enhancing the visual information and autonomous machine perception, this work presented research to improve the effectiveness of SR image reconstruction The reference image is obtained from DIV2K and BSD 100 dataset, these reference LR image is converted as composed LR image using the proposed Lucy Richardson and Modified Mean Wiener (LR-MMWF) Filters. The possessed LR image is provided as input for the stage of bicubic interpolation. Afterward, the initial HR image is obtained as output from the interpolation stage which is given as input for the SR model consisting of fidelity term to decrease residual between the projected HR image and detected LR image. At last, a model based on Bilateral Total Variation (BTV) prior is utilized to improve the stability of the HR image by refining the quality of the image. The results obtained from the performance analysis show that the proposed LR-MMW filter attained better PSNR and Structural Similarity (SSIM) than the existing filters. The results obtained from the experiments show that the proposed LR-MMW filter achieved better performance and provides a higher PSNR value of 31.65dB whereas the Filter-Net and 1D,2D CNN filter achieved PSNR values of 28.95dB and 31.63dB respectively.
