Identify Type of Squint of Human's Eye through Deep Network EfficientNet-B0 with Grad-CAM

Wafaa H. Alwan , Sabah M. Imran

Finding and treating different types of strabismus, which is when the eyes do not line up properly, can be challenging. This study introduces a deep learning system that automatically identifies five types of strabismus: esotropia, exotropia, hypertropia, hypotropia, and normal eye alignment. It combines EfficientNet-B0 with Grad-CAM to improve how the system recognizes and classifies these conditions accurately. These help EfficientNet-B0 improve how it picks out important features using squeeze-and-excitation blocks, which capture key details needed for accurate classification. Grad-CAM further refines this process and localizes the critical regions in the feature maps more effectively to improve interpretability. We trained the model on a dataset of 10,000 balanced images across the five classes, achieving a classification accuracy of 99.43% and 96.33% for training and testing data, respectively. The model's focus-based architecture ensures that clinicians' set goals are met in terms of the model's efficiency and reliability for predictions.

Particulate Matter (PM) concentration significantly affects public health, exacerbating respiratory conditions and contributing to environmental challenges. This study presents a real-time Internet of Things (IoT)-based portable particulate matter monitoring device utilizing the PMS5003 sensor. The device measures PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10 concentrations and uploads the data to the cloud at 15-second intervals for real-time visualization. A two-week observational study in South Tangerang, Indonesia, revealed peak PM2.5 and PM10 levels of 218 µg/m³ and 232 µg/m³, respectively, on weekdays, compared to a weekend low of 19.76 µg/m³ for PM2.5. Variations were influenced by anthropogenic factors, including vehicular and industrial activity. Data analysis showed a 78% reduction in PM2.5 levels during weekends, highlighting the impact of human activity on air quality. These findings underscore the impact of anthropogenic activities on air quality and demonstrate the effectiveness of IoT-based systems in environmental monitoring. The study highlights the potential for such technology to support data-driven strategies for pollution management and public health improvement.

Optimizing Performance in Modern Web Systems and Applications: An Analysis of Caching and Load Balancing Techniques

Ebtehal Akeel Hamed , Ahmed Mahdi Abdulkadium , Enas Faris Yahya

To increase scalability, response speed, and fault tolerance, modern web systems must have load balancing and caching solutions. Better resource allocation and traffic management control help to prevent system overload. This is essential to satisfy the growing need for perfect digital experiences. This work intends to demonstrate an adaptive load balancing system using real-time job scheduling, predictive analytics, and multi-layer caching, integrating artificial intelligence technology. Our hybrid deep learning and storage systems lower data retrieval time and estimate traffic. This approach tremendously increases the efficiency of online systems. Unlike conventional load balancing systems, which rely on either static or rule-based traffic distribution, our approach employs artificial intelligence-based dynamic allocation to real-time resource adjustment. Our solution forecasts workload surges and pre-allocated resources suitably using deep neural networks in conjunction with past traffic data. To hasten data retrieval, the multi-layer caching approach makes use of content delivery networks (CDNs) and cloud-based storage. This lessens the double effort required and helps one discover objects more easily. Among the several advantages, the new approach offers over the old ones are a 40% decrease in energy use, a 20% improvement in resource use, and a 50% improvement in reaction time. This approach has exceeded round robin and dynamic load balancing in actual AWS simulations. These findings highlight how incorporating predictive analytics driven by artificial intelligence might improve current site designs. For cloud platforms, IoT systems, and high-traffic online applications needing efficiency and fast adaption, this approach performs well.

A Systematic Review of Blockchain and Metaheuristic Algorithms for Secure and Scalable Healthcare Systems

Karam Hatem Alkhater , Mohana Shanmugam , Pritheega Magalingam

The integration of blockchain technology and metaheuristic optimization has transformed healthcare systems by improving security, scalability, and data interoperability. Blockchain ensures decentralization, immutability, and privacy, making it a viable solution for electronic medical records (EMRs) and secure healthcare data management. Meanwhile, metaheuristic algorithms optimize blockchain networks by enhancing transaction efficiency, consensus mechanisms, and real-time medical data processing. This paper systematically reviews recent advancements in blockchain and metaheuristics for healthcare applications. We discuss existing privacy-preserving models, AI-driven optimization techniques, and hybrid consensus mechanisms, addressing their strengths and limitations. Through a structured methodology, we analyze research trends, security challenges, and computational bottlenecks. This study encompassed 300 research articles from nine global databases. Then, inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied, leading to the exclusion of 144 studies and the retention of 156 studies. Subsequently, quality assessments were conducted, resulting in the final inclusion of only 8 studies for data extraction. A three-phase methodology was followed: planning, conducting, and reporting. The studies covered the period from January 2020 to January 2025, and 10 evaluation questions were used to assess the quality of the studies. Our findings reveal that while blockchain enhances data security and interoperability, metaheuristic-driven AI further optimizes system efficiency. However, challenges such as scalability constraints, energy consumption, regulatory compliance, and AI-based cyber threats remain significant. Future research should focus on developing lightweight blockchain architectures, quantum- resistant cryptographic models, and federated AI-enhanced security frameworks to address these issues. By leveraging advanced blockchain and AI-driven metaheuristics, healthcare systems can achieve greater resilience, efficiency, and adaptive security.

The significance of the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is due to its capability in detecting attacks over the network. The current paper proposes a new feature selection method for misuse intrusion detection systems based on RNA encoding, where the proposed method includes five steps. Firstly, the KDD-Cup99 dataset is used and then select random records are used for both training and testing. Secondly, RNA encoding to encode each possible value in the dataset into RNA characters. Thirdly, the keys and their locations are extracted by dividing the achieved RNA sequences from previous steps into blocks with different sizes, then finding the most repeated blocks, choosing them as keys, and storing their location. The next step is the proposed feature selection method based on the extracted keys and their locations, depending on the place of the key within the feature number. Finally, the Raita algorithm for matching to search for keys before and after the applied features selection method. In terms of IDS performance evaluation, experimental outcomes of the proposed feature selection method show the capability of optimizing the time complexity and metrics.

Noorishta Hashmi , Mohammad Haroon

Rice plant disease detection is crucial in agriculture to prevent crop loss and enhance productivity. Traditional manual inspection methods often lead to inaccuracies, delays in diagnosis, and excessive pesticide use. To address these challenges, this study proposes an Artificial Layered Fuzzy Neural Network-based African Vulture Optimization (ALFNN-AVO) algorithm for early and accurate detection of rice plant diseases. The proposed framework integrates multiple advanced techniques, including Cross Fusion former (CF former) for feature extraction, Squeeze Excitation (SE) fusion for enhancing feature representation, and Spatial Fuzzy C-Means (SPFCM) for precise segmentation of affected plant regions. Furthermore, an Artificial Layered Depth Separable Neural Network (ALDSNN) is employed for multi-class classification of rice plant diseases. The Differential Bitwise African Vultures Optimization Algorithm (DBAVOA) is introduced to optimize the hyperparameters, ensuring improved convergence and classification performance. Experimental results validate the efficiency of the proposed model, achieving an accuracy of 98.87% and an execution time of 0.09 minutes, outperforming existing methodologies. The findings demonstrate that the proposed framework offers a reliable and computationally efficient solution for real-time rice plant disease detection, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices.

Enhancing EEG-Based Emotion Recognition in Computer Games Using KNN Optimized by the iHOW Optimization Algorithm

Abdelhameed Ibrahim , Christos Gatzoulis , El-Sayed M. El-kenawy , Marwa M. Eid

Emotion recognition using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals has become a pivotal area in affective computing, particularly within the context of human–computer interaction and game-based environments. This study aims to enhance the accuracy and robustness of EEG-based emotion classification by introducing a hybrid framework that combines the k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) classifier with advanced metaheuristic feature selection techniques. Using the publicly available GAMEEMO dataset, which includes EEG recordings from 28 subjects engaged in four emotionally distinct computer games (boring, calm, horror, and funny), EEG data were acquired through a 14-channel Emotiv Epoc+ device and labeled using the Self-Assessment Manikin (SAM) scale. Baseline machine learning models including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree (DT), Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), and KNN were evaluated, with KNN achieving the highest base line performance. The KNN classifier was further optimized using several metaheuristic algorithms—namely WAO, BBO, GWO, GA, FA, PSO—and the proposed Improved Human Optimization Algorithm (iHOW). Experimental results show that the iHOW+KNN model achieved the best overall performance with an accuracy of 96.85%, sensitivity of 95.50%, specificity of 95.82%, and F1-score of 95.54%. Visual assessments using heatmaps, radar plots, and confidence intervals further validated the model’s reliability. These findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the iHOW+KNN framework in addressing the challenges of high-dimensional EEG data and highlight the potential of wearable EEG devices for real-time emotion recognition in affective computing applications into user experiences within the gaming environment.

Enhancing Classification Accuracy through Cluster-Based Ensemble Learning and Adaptive Weighting

Mustafa Radif , Zainab Fahad alnaseri , Salam saad alkafagi , Ali Hakem Al-saeedi , Riyadh Rahef Nuiaa Alogaili , Mazin Abed Mohammed

As digital devices continue to process ever-increasing volumes of complex data, ensuring accurate and efficient machine learning performance has become a significant challenge. Traditional ensemble learning methods often attempt to address these issues through data sampling or partitioning; however, such approaches can introduce biases and fail to fully capture the underlying structure of the data. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a novel classification framework that integrates clustering with adaptive weighting strategies. The process begins by dividing the training data into clusters, each representing a specific subset of the overall data distribution. Separate machine learning models are then trained on these clusters, allowing each model to specialize in different areas of the data. When analyzing a test instance, its relationship to the individual clusters is evaluated using two key measures: the correlation coefficient, which assesses feature similarity, and the Mahalanobis distance, which calculates the statistical proximity to the cluster center. These values are subsequently used to generate optimized weights that determine the influence each model should have in the final ensemble prediction. By aligning model contributions with the structural similarities between the test and training data, the proposed approach enhances both the reliability and precision of classification. Experimental results demonstrate that this cluster-aware ensemble consistently outperforms both baseline and advanced classifiers on benchmark datasets.

Mohammed Abdulhasan Hussein , Rajaa Daami Resen , Ali Nafea Yousif , Oday Ali Hassen , Ansam A. Abdulhussein

Remote sensing image evaluation faces continual challenges in extracting discriminative capabilities from complex; multi-scale landscapes the use of conventional spectral-spatial techniques, which often fail to capture hierarchical structures correctly. This examine proposes a brand-new methodology that leverages the discrete wavelet remodel (DWT) for multi-scale characteristic extraction. It is carried out thru Python and the PyWavelets library to offer an open-source, reproducible solution. The framework decomposes pictures into subscales of path and directional detail throughout multiple scales, extracting statistical and textural descriptors optimized for remote sensing obligations. A complete assessment of 500 multispectral patches (Sentinel-2, Landsat-8, and high-decision sensors) demonstrates advanced overall performance in land cover class, accomplishing an accuracy of 92.4%, outperforming uncooked pixel methods (84.1%), important issue evaluation (PCA) (87.3%), and GLCM-based totally techniques (89.6%). A sensitivity analysis famous that Daubeches wavelet 4 at decomposition level three improves function discriminability, in particular for agricultural textures (91.2% accuracy) and concrete limitations (IoU=0.873), while directional subbands (LH/HL) reduce transition area mistakes by way of 23%. The computational efficiency (184 ms/megapixel) remains possible. These consequences show that DWT is an effective and handy device for improving faraway sensing analysis, with the full code and datasets being made publicly available to promote community adoption and foster innovation.

Image Tag Generation Based on Deep Features Using Deep Learning Techniques

Heba Adnan Raheem , Hiba Jabbar Aleqabie , Ameer Sameer Hamood Mohammed Ali

The task of automatically generating descriptive and accurate image tags has gained significant attention in recent years due to the exponential growth of image data. Traditional methods for image tagging rely on manual annotation, which is time-consuming and subjective. Automated imagine description fills the gap between visual content and human comprehension, making it vital for activities such as information retrieval, editing, and accessibility. The expanding number of unannotated photographs makes manual tagging impossible. This paper provides a deep learning-based system that combines CNNs for feature extraction, RNNs for caption production, and attention techniques to focus on significant image areas. The model uses a sequence-to-sequence architecture to create coherent captions using pre-trained CNN features and attention-enhanced RNNs. Experiments on datasets such as Flickr8k and Flickr30k show higher performance, as evidenced by BLEU, ROUGE, and CIDEr measures. This approach provides a scalable, cutting-edge solution for image captioning, with potential applications in video analysis, enriched language production, and larger datasets.

Secure and Decentralized Plant Disease Detection via Federated Learning with Differential Privacy and Homomorphic Encryption

Vetripriya M. , S. Amsavalli , R. Sivasankari , Vetri Selvan M. , N. Kanimozhi

Plant disease detection using deep learning has achieved high accuracy, but traditional centralized training poses significant privacy risks and incurs high data transmission costs. This study presents a privacy-preserving federated learning (FL) framework for plant disease diagnosis that enables decentralized model training across geographically distributed agricultural sites. Rather than transferring raw farm data to a central server, local models are trained on edge devices and share only model updates. To address data heterogeneity from diverse climates, soils, and plant species, we introduce adaptive aggregation strategies that improve model generalization. Furthermore, we incorporate differential privacy and homomorphic encryption to ensure secure model updates and protect sensitive information from potential breaches. Experimental evaluations on benchmark datasets, including Plant Village and real-world field images, show that the proposed FL-based system achieves comparable accuracy to centralized models while significantly enhancing data privacy and reducing communication overhead. The framework maintains over 93% classification accuracy across 38 plant disease categories, with minimal degradation from added privacy mechanisms. Additionally, we analyze the trade-off between accuracy and communication efficiency, demonstrating the method’s practicality in bandwidth-constrained rural environments. The proposed system offers a scalable, secure, and field-deployable solution for real-time plant disease monitoring, supporting the widespread adoption of AI in precision agriculture without compromising data confidentiality.

Novel Prediction on Breast Cancer through Lazy Learning Approach by Linear Neural Network Search with Distance with Euclidean

S. Amsavalli , Vetripriya M. , R. Sivasankari , Vetri Selvan M. , Vijayakumar K.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer-affecting women worldwide and remains a major cause of mortality. Early detection and accurate prognosis are critical to improving survival outcomes. This study introduces a novel predictive model for breast cancer diagnosis that integrates a lazy learning paradigm with the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm, optimized through a Linear Nearest Neighbor (NN) Search technique and the use of Euclidean distance as the similarity measure. The dataset, comprising 4,024 patient records with 15 clinical and demographic attributes, was obtained from a public repository and underwent rigorous preprocessing, including handling of missing values, normalization, and categorical encoding. The classification model was trained and evaluated using 1:9 cross-validation, with K values ranging from 1 to 9 and a constant batch size of 100 to identify the optimal configuration. Among various configurations tested, the model with K=5 demonstrated the highest performance, achieving an accuracy of 88.02%, precision of 0.87, and recall of 0.88. Additional performance metrics such as F-measure, Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC), and Kappa statistic further confirmed the robustness of the selected configuration. The proposed model shows superior predictive capability compared to traditional settings and can serve as a decision-support tool for clinicians. The findings suggest that the combination of lazy learning, effective neighbor search strategy, and robust distance metric can substantially enhance the predictive accuracy of breast cancer diagnosis. This study highlights the potential of machine learning-based tools in clinical oncology, offering a data-driven approach for early intervention and patient outcome improvement.

M. E. ElAlami , S. M. Khater , M. El. R. Rehan

Technological developments have produced methods that can generate educational videos from input text or sound. Recently, the use of deep learning techniques for image and video generation has been widely explored, particularly in education. However, generating video content from conditional inputs such as text or speech remains a challenging area. In this paper, we introduce a novel method to the educational structure, Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), which develop frame-for-frame frameworks and are able to create full educational videos. The proposed system is structured into three main phases in the first phase; the input (either text or speech) is transcribed using speech recognition. In the second phase, key terms are extracted and relevant images are generated using advanced models such as CLIP and diffusion models to enhance visual quality and semantic alignment. In the final phase, the generated images are synthesized into a video format, integrated with either pre-recorded or synthesized sound, resulting in a fully interactive educational video. The proposed system is compared with other systems such as TGAN, MoCoGAN, and TGANS-C, achieving a Fréchet Inception Distance (FID) score of 28.75%, which indicates improved visual quality and better over existing methods.

Hybrid Adaptive Swarm Enhanced Vision Transformer for Accurate Corn Leaf Disease Prediction

Nilam Sachin Patil , E. Kannan

Early and precise detection of corn leaf diseases is important for maintaining crop yield and quality. This work suggests a new end-to-end system Hybrid Adaptive Swarm-enhanced Vision Transformer (HAS-ViT) to overcome the limitations of current techniques such as poor accuracy, high computational expense, and overfitting and inefficient feature extraction. The suggested framework combines a three-stage pipeline such as segmentation, classification and optimization to overcome the issues. First, Adaptive Gradient Masking with Color Entropy (AGM-CE) is a novel segmentation technique that isolates diseased areas through an integration of local color entropy and gradient energy in the LAB color space. This guarantees accurate area selection and removal of the background. Then, a transformer model is constructed named Vision Transformer with Enhanced Visual Attention (ViT-EVA). It integrates depthwise attention layers as well as lesion-aware region concentration, enhancing separation of disease classes and model simplification. Finally, Adaptive Bio-Inspired Gradient Tuning (ABGT) optimizer integrates the Bat Algorithm, AdamW and gradient sign flipping for effective learning and convergence. The mechanism speeds up convergence, prevents local minima and maintains exploration exploitation trade-offs at training. The performance of proposed work is measured on a corn disease dataset and performs at 98.1% accuracy and 0.12 loss than conventional and current transformer-based models.

Govindan Rajesh , Nandagopal Malarvizhi

Arthritis significantly affects mobility and quality of life due to joint inflammation and dysfunction. Its most common type, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), primarily influences multiple joints and tissues, especially in women aged 30–50. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, and stiffness. The growing prevalence of RA, projected to reach 44 million globally by 2045, underscores the need for advanced diagnostic methods. MRI offers detailed visualization of joint structures, essential for accurate diagnosis. However, current grading systems like OARSI and Kellgren-Lawrence are subjective and prone to variability. This study introduces the KL Grading DeepNetX framework, a deep learning-based model for automated RA grading and classification. The approach integrates image preprocessing and segmentation to extract key features such as joint space narrowing and cartilage thickness. Comparative analysis shows that KL Grading DeepNetX outperforms traditional methods with high precision, sensitivity, specificity, and F1-score. This framework enables earlier, more accurate and efficient detection of arthritis using knee MRI images.

JPEG-Resistant DCT Steganography for Secure Communication

Israa Abdulkadhim Jabbar Al Ali , Zainab A. Abdulazeez , Rawaa.M.aljubouri

In this work, the researchers presented an ingenious new way to conceal secret messages within images, a practice called steganography. This technique embedded secret messages within images undetectably. To embed the secret data, it applies a mathematical trick called Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) that is commonly used to compress image files to hide the secret data in areas of the image that are not too complex or too simple. The algorithm adaptively selected embedding locations based on image texture to the appearance of the image, choosing the most appropriate places to hide the secret and the picture to appear normal. This new method of hiding data is more magical and less detectable than older methods, which modify the smallest details of an image (so-called Least Significant Bit techniques). It examines the patterns of the image such as whether it is smooth or has many details and selects obscure, secure locations to conceal the message. They tried this with 1,000 images, and in each image, they embedded a small message (a paragraph of text). The pictures came out great afterwards with just minor adjustments that most people would not have noticed. 95% of the buried messages could be dragged out flawlessly even after the images had been reduced in size with the JPEG. An artificial intelligence-based high-tech detection tool only detected the hidden data half the time 52%, a significant improvement over the older techniques where it located 85 percent or 65% of the secrets.

Kamalanathan Sundararajan , Prasanna Santhanam

Nowadays, virtual reality (VR) and immersive environments are research fields used in various educational and scientific areas. Immersive digital media desires new techniques for its immersive and interactive features it implies the model of new relationships and narratives with users. VR and technologies related to the virtuality sequence, like digital and immersive environments, are developing media. 3D environments generated with VR compatibility can be skilled from a stereoscopic and egocentric view that outperforms the immersion of the ‘classical’ screen-based view of 3D gamed virtual environments. Recent video games have complete, interactive scenes generated with innovative modeling and animation software and provided with hardware speeded-up graphics and physics. Their communication takes place with body-based sensing and commodity 3D motion controllers, like and in certain ways more progressive, than those discovered in conventional VEs do. Currently, artificial intelligence-based deep learning (DL) methods have been progressively applied to identify and assess user immersion levels in VR environments. In this paper, we present an Advanced Immersion Level Prediction Using Ensemble Classification Model and Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithm (ILPECM-MOA) in 3D Games Virtual Environments. This paper aims to develop a predictive model for assessing advanced immersion levels in 3D game virtual environments using behavioral and contextual data. At the primary stage, the data pre-processing stage uses Z-score normalization to transform input data into a beneficial pattern. Followed by, the presented ILPECM-MOA method designs ensemble models such as the temporal convolutional network (TCN) model, sparse denoising autoencoder (SDAE) method, and stacked long short-term memory (SLSTM) technique for the classification process. At last, the Hybrid ebola and Bald Eagle search optimization (HEBEO) approach fine-tunes the hyperparameter values of ensemble methods and results in the superior performance of classification. The effectiveness of the ILPECM-MOA model has been validated by the detailed studies utilizing the benchmark dataset. The mathematical outcome indicates that the ILPECM-MOA approach has improved performance and scalability in terms of various measures over the recent methods.

A Model for the Prediction of Cardiovascular Disease in IoMT Based on AI's Binary and Multi-Class Structures

Ahmed A. F. Osman , Nesren Farhah , Rajit Nair , Mohammed Awad Mohammed Ataelfadiel , Rami Taha shehab

Heart disease is a severe hazard to the public's health and safety because of the high rates of disability and mortality it causes. Accurate disease prediction and diagnosis are more critical than ever in this era of earlier illness prevention, faster disease detection, and earlier disease treatment. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) have made it possible to detect, forecast, and diagnose cardiovascular disease more precisely. However, the bulk of these prediction models can only state whether a person is sick; they cannot and do not forecast the severity of the ailment. We present a machine-learning-based technique for predicting cardiovascular disease. Using this strategy, we hope to perform binary and multimodal classifications at the same time. To get things started, we will go through the fuzzy-adaboost approach, which will serve as the foundation for the rest of our work. By combining fuzzy logic and the Adaboost method, this method aims to increase the number of applications that can use binary classification prediction to simplify data analysis. If it is completed, both objectives will be met, and we will eliminate overfitting by merging bagging and fuzzy adaboost into a single approach. It is the ideal solution to the challenge we are currently facing. Because it has a separate classification for the severity of the presentation of heart disease, the bagging fuzzy adaboost can be used for multiclassification prediction. This is because Adaboost's assessment of the severity of the observed heart disease presentations is unclear and imprecise. The results of the experiment reveal that, in addition to a wide range of other classes, the Bagging-Fuzzy-Adaboost can anticipate binary data accurately. When compared to traditional procedures, it is evident that this has significant advantages.
