An Innovative Approach for Osteosarcoma Bone Cancer Detection based on Attention Embedded R-CNN Approach
The malignant bone tumor osteosarcoma. Any bone is at risk, but lengthy bones like the limbs are more vulnerable. Although the precise cause of this malignant growth is uncertain, experts concur that it is caused by changes to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) inside the bones. This can cause the breakdown of good tissue and the growth of aberrant, pathological bone. Osteosarcoma has a 76% cure rate if detected early and treated before it spreads to other parts of the body. An X-ray is the primary tool for detecting bone tumors. Bone X-rays and other imaging tests can help detect osteosarcoma. A biopsy should be performed for an accurate diagnosis. This is a time-consuming and tedious task that might be greatly reduced with the help of appropriate tools. Data preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction, and model training are the four main pillars of the proposed approach. Unwanted noises can be filtered out with some preprocessing. Low-spatial-frequency and high-spatial-frequency components are separated using segmentation. The proposed approach employed Tumor Border Clarity, Joint Distance, Tumor Texture, and other features for feature extraction. Let's move on to A-Residual CNN model training. The success percentage of the proposed approach was 96.39 percent. 2023 IEEE. -
Full Swing Logic Based Full Adder for Low Power Applications
During the design of Application-Specific Integrated Circuits, a whole adder logic circuit plays a significant role. The full adder is a fundamental part of the majority of VLSI and DSP applications. Power consumption in full adders is one of the key factors; hence it is necessary to build full adders with low power consumption. Full adders are developed in this work employing full swing AND, OR, and XOR gates and compared with pass transistor logic (PTL) based AND, OR, and XOR gates, and complementary metal oxide semiconductor logic (CMOS) based AND gate, OR gate, and XOR gate. The Mentor Graphics Tool is used to construct and simulate every planned circuit. After receiving simulation data, we compared the power consumption, delay and PDP of several complete adder-based logic designs. In the proposed full swing XOR, the power dissipation and delay is decreased by 10.5% and 9.8% respectively and hence the full swing full adder PDP is decreased by 0.6%. As compared to alternative full adder designs based on logic, full swing by using gates like AND gate, by using the OR gate, and with the help XOR gate, full adder design consumes less power and hence suitable for low power applications. 2024, ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering. -

Various techniques, such as thresholding, pattern recognition, computer-aided diagnostics, and backpropagation calculations, have been explored by scientists. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have emerged as powerful tools in recent times, revolutionizing many aspects of this field. However, traditional computer-aided detection systems face challenges when categorizing lung nodule detection. Excessive reliance on classifiers at every stage of the process results in diminished recognition rates and an increased occurrence of false positives. To address these issues, we present a novel approach based on deep hybrid learning for classifying lung lesions. In this study, we explore multiple memory-efficient and hybrid deep neural network (DNN) architectures for image processing. Our proposed hybrid DNN significantly outperforms the current state-of-the-art, achieving an impressive accuracy of 95.21%, all while maintaining a balanced trade-off between specificity and sensitivity.

Leveraging Ensemble Methods for Accurate Prediction of Customer Spending Scores in Retail
This study primarily aims to estimate consumer spending trends in a retail context. The goal is to identify the best model for predicting Purchasing Scores, which indicate customer loyalty and potential income, using demographic and financial data. The dataset included information about customers' age, gender, and annual income, and the objective was to analyze their Spending Scores. Several regression models were tested, including Linear Regression, Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), and Lasso Regression. To improve the models, we engineered features like Age Squared, Income per Age, and Spending Score per Income. Each model was trained and tested using 3fold cross-validation. We evaluated their performance with Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and R-squared (R2) metrics. The results showed significant differences in model performance. The Random Forest model stood out, with the lowest Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.33, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 0.52, and the highest R-squared (R22) score of 0.9997. Gradient Boosting also performed well, achieving a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 1.77, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 2.41, and an Rsquared (R2) score of 0.9930. While Linear Regression showed moderate accuracy, KNN and Lasso Regression had higher errors and lower R2 values, indicating less reliable predictions. The findings suggest that ensemble methods, particularly Random Forest, excel at predicting customer Spending Scores. The high accuracy and reliability of this model point to its potential for customer segmentation and targeted marketing strategies, ultimately enhancing customer relationship management and boosting business value. Further refinement and exploration of additional features could further improve these prediction capabilities. 2024 IEEE. -
