Analysis of Fine Needle Aspiration Images by Using Hybrid Feature Selection and Various Machine Learning Classifiers
Women die of breast cancer most often worldwide. Breast tissue samples can be examined by radiologists, surgeons, and pathologists for evidence of this cancer. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) can be used to detect this cancer through a visual microscopic examination of breast tissue samples. This sample must be examined by a cytopathologist in order to determine the patient's risk of breast cancer. To determine if a tumor is malignant, the nuclei of the cells must be characterized by their chromatin texture patterns. A machine learning method is used in order to categorize FNA images into two classes, respectively Malignant and Benign. For detecting abnormalities, numerous feature collection methods and machine learning means are applied here. Using features extracted from the FNA image set, UCI machine learning datasets are used to validate the proposed approach. This paper compares three classification methodologies, namely random forests, Naive Bayes, and artificial neural networks, by examining their accuracy, specificity, precision, and sensitivity, respectively. With the ANN and PCA along with the Chi-square selection method, 99.1% of the classifiers are correctly classified. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -

Securing medical images using encryption and LSB steganography
Medical imaging plays a vital role in the healthcare industry. Due to the advancements in the healthcare industry medical images are being transferred between geographically spread regions. As the medical images are transmitted through public networks several security challenges may arise such as authentication, integrity, and confidentiality. In this paper, the research focus is on preserving the confidentiality and integrity of the medical images. In general, integrity and confidentiality can be achieved by encryption (a piece of cryptography). To incorporate one more layer of security, steganography is applied to the medical image. In this paper, a one-time pad encryption algorithm is used to encrypt the medical image, then the encrypted image is implanted into a cover image to give a stego image making the system more resilient to the attacker. Further in this paper, the above said method is being implemented using MATLAB and the experimental results are compared with hiding the medical image using LSB steganography without encryption (one layer of security). Various formats of medical images have been taken into consideration such as DICOM, TIFF, BMP, and JPEG. Results show that the combination of encryption and steganography performs better than applying only steganography, concerning MSE and PSNR values. 2021 IEEE -

On Statistical Tools in Finding Equitable Antimagic Labeling of Complete Graphs
Graph theory is a branch of mathematics that deals with representation of graphs with vertices and edges. Graph labeling is the assignment of integer labels to either vertices or edges. For a given graph G= (V, E), an edge-weighting is a function f:E(G)?{1,2,3,..,|E(G)|}. For a vertex v of G, let Wf(v) denotes the sum of edge-weights appearing on the edges incident at v under the edge-weighting f. A bijective edge-weighting f of G is said to be an equitable antimagic labeling (EAL) of G if |Wf(u) - Wf(v) | ? 1 for any pair of adjacent vertices u and v of G. A graph admitting an EAL is called an equitable antimagic graph (EAG). In this paper, the characterization of complete graphs Kn, for n? 6 is dealt using an algorithmic approach. 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -

A Comparative Assessment of Cascaded Double Voltage Lift Boost Converter
In several power conversion applications, dc-dc boost converters with voltage boost techniques are extensively used in order to meet the growing power demand. The main drawback of conventional dc-dc boost converter is obtaining high DC voltages, when operated at high duty ratio which causes switching losses and decreases overall efficiency because of the switch being used to be in 'ON' state for long time and voltage stresses across switch increases. The main objective of proposed converter is to obtain high voltage without extreme duty ratio. When input voltage of 15V DC is given, 201.1V DC output voltage is attained at duty ratio of 0.4 by the cascaded double voltage lift boost converter. To validate the performance of proposed converter, simulation is carried out in LTspice XVII and a comparative assessment of proposed converter with other converters at different duty ratio are realized. 2020 IEEE.
