An unprecedented shift in technology has begun in the modern era. Robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) advancements have created fresh positions while de-skilling or retraining many existing ones. Technical developments at higher education institutions (HEIs) protect students against potential changes in their field of study brought on by A) and prepare them for success in the workplace. This research aims to investigate how, over the past 150 years; globalization has fundamentally changed human civilization. Conventional education confronts enormous challenges as energy, the internet of things, and the cyber-physical systems they oversee diminish. One may argue that energy, the internet of things, and the cyber-physical systems that are under its jurisdiction are the foundations of all future education. The demise of these systems presents a significant threat to traditional schooling. Students' screen time is increased by this action, which has an impact on their mental health. Five-fold cross-validation with 210 students from Delhi NCR and abroad is beneficial for the classification techniques SVM, Naive Bayes, and Random Forest. The study examined the factors that contributed to an increased rate of mental health issues among undergraduate students in Delhi, India, following the introduction of the COVID-19 virus. The results have demonstrated that while technology's practical applications will likely have a positive influence on education in the future, there may be negative effects as well. This is an opportunity for educators and learners to support excellence and remove obstacles that prevent many kids and schools from achieving it. Therefore, in the future, every nation will need to create an education system that is more technologically sophisticated. 2024 IEEE.

Artificial intelligence; Deep learning; Fake news; Machine learning; Sentiment analysis
Even though research on artificial intelligence (AI) is still in its early phases, the field is growing in popularity. We created a hybrid machine learning model to better understand the pattern of results connected to illegal user behaviour. Then, after identifying the components of illegal user activity, we created a theory for forecasting criminal user behaviour that explains the patterns and results. Our study focuses on offenders spreading misleading information online and makes use of a Bengali dataset. Sentiment analysis is a modern technology that can help us understand how individuals feel in different scenarios during their everyday lives. To comprehend the pattern behind this agenda, machine learning and deep learning techniques will be applied throughout the categorization process. To determine the possible attitudes driving criminal conduct that spreads misleading information, sentiment levels on social media may be monitored or studied. This study examines the use of several artificial intelligence approaches to assess sentiment in social media data in order to identify criminal user activity occurring throughout the world. The hybrid model CNN with Adam optimizer exhibits higher precision levels while doing sentiment analysis. In addition to identifying solutions to the issues that people currently face in the modern world, we also propose a new categorization system for illicit user activity. In our analysis of the research's shortcomings, we make recommendations for a broader research agenda on illicit user conduct and how one can forecast the criminal user behaviour on psychological aspects. Our model was thus able to draw 87.33% accuracy in determining criminal behaviour patterns. The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.

Classification of Diseased Leaves in Plants Using Convolutional Neural Networks
Convolutional neural network; Diseased leaf
The article focuses on the classification of diseased leaves using a machine learning algorithm. The main focus in agriculture is controlling pests and weeds, for which farmers spray chemical pesticides to get a good yield. The issue here is over-usage and under-usage of pesticides, which might harm the end consumer. To achieve the goal of reducing pesticide use and detecting pests in the crop early, the machine learning algorithm is deployed on the leaf image. The image data of the leaf of the cauliflower plant is collected for 40days. The data was collected from the day the plant was seeded in a pot until the day it was ready to be planted in the soil. From this data, the pest attack on the plants is tracked without the application of pesticides. To achieve this, the CNN algorithm is used on the collected image data. The outcome of the study would be to classify the diseased leaves based on the pest attack and know the right time to spray the pesticides to reduce the damage to the plant. This also reduces the use of pesticides and costs to the farmer. The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.

Deep Learning; EfficientNetB3; Mobile Application; Pathology detection; Plant Disease; Regularization; Transfer Learning
It is known that accurately identifying, early and timely treatment and elimination of the plant diseases is essential for crop protection and healthy crop growth. In traditional or conventional methods, identification and classification were done by testing in laboratories or through visual inspection by farmers. Now going through the testing in labs is very time consuming, while the visual inspection requires enough experience and knowledge. To solve this problem, our study proposes a robust plant pathogen detection method based on a Deep Learning approach on a large dataset containing about 38 categories of different species like Maize, Potatoes, Tomatoes, Bell Pepper, Peach, Strawberry etc. and diseases like rust, molds, blight (late and early). This crop disease detection model leverages the power of the EfficientNetB3 architecture, a state-of-art convolutional neural network(CNN). The main backbone is served by EfficientNetB3and then it is fine-tuned using different hyperparameters and other regularization techniques like weight decay, dropout method and optimizers like RAdam,to enhance the overall accuracy coupled with dynamic learning rate adjustment. In the testing set of the dataset, the proposed model shows encouraging accuracy of about 99.25%, high precision of about 97.35%. A thorough evaluation of the model's functionality is given by the help of training and validation line chart and loss chart that gives the in-depth information on the prediction. And then we implemented the detection model in our mobile application whose interface screen shots are given below.

cervical cancer; classification; machine learning; medical imaging; preprocessing
This study analyzes the effectiveness of machine learning models in the classification of cervical cancer using a dataset of 900 cancer and 200 non-cancer images gathered from online resources and hospitals. The dataset, covering both CT and MRI images, undergoes rigorous preprocessing, including standardization, normalization, and noise reduction, to enhance its quality for model training. Four machine learning models, namely VGG16, CNN, KNN, and RNN, are recruited to predict cancer and non-cancer cases. During the testing phase, VGG16 emerges as the most accurate, achieving an impressive accuracy of 95.44%, followed by CNN at 92.3%, KNN at 89.99%, and RNN at 86.233%. Performance parameters, such as precision, recall, F1 score, and accuracy, are fully analyzed, providing insights into each model's strengths and capabilities. These discoveries not only contribute to the advancement of cervical cancer diagnostic techniques but also underscore the potential of machine learning in medical imaging. The study emphasizes the relevance of model selection and provides a framework for future research endeavors seeking to enhance the accuracy and performance of cervical cancer diagnosis through the merger of advanced computational techniques with standard diagnostic practices. 2024 IEEE.
