Clan Culture in Organizational Leadership and Strategic Emphases: Expectations Among School Teachers in India
Understanding the current and preferred organizational culture among school teachers in India is a primary requirement, particularly when the National Educational Policy (NEP) is being implemented. Measuring the competing values using the Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) provides information about the dominant characteristics of the organizational culture and the school teachers' preferences. We surveyed school teachers and received 273 responses. Research revealed that clan culture is the overall current and preferred organizational culture type. Many of the results are not a surprise. However, we found that organizational leadership is currently in the hierarchy culture and strategic emphasis is on adhocracy, whereas teachers prefer a clan culture on these dimensions. Teachers expect school leaders to be the ones who facilitate the path to achieve, provide mentoring, and are instrumental in team building. They prefer a culture that provides for the development of human capital, promotes high trust and transparency among teachers, and offers an opportunity to participate in decision-making. This study is unique as it measures schools' organizational culture that has not been done earlier in the Indian context. The results suggest implications on the leadership practices and the strategic emphasis that need to change, in order to facilitate the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP). 2022.

Classification Algorithms Used in the Study of EEG-Based Epileptic Seizure Detection
Epilepsy is a neurological illness that has become more frequent around the world. Nearly 80% of epileptic seizure sufferers live in low- and middle-income nations. In persons with encephalopathy, the risk of dying prematurely is three times higher than in the general population. Three-quarters of people with brain illnesses in low-income countries do not receive the treatment they require. Recurrent seizures are a symptom of epilepsy, characterized by strange bursts of excess energy in mind. Experts agree that most people diagnosed with epilepsy may be managed successfully, provided the episodes are discovered early on. As a result, machine learning plays an essential role in seizure detection and diagnosis. Support Vector Machine(SVM), Extreme Gradient Boosting(Xgboost), Decision Tree Classifier, Linear Discriminant Analysis(LDA), Perceptron, Naive Bayes Classifier, k-Nearest Neighbor(k-NN), and Logistic Regression are eight of the most widely used machine learning classification algorithms used to classify EEG based mostly Epileptic Seizures. Almost all classifiers, according to the study, give an efficient process. Despite this, the results show that SVM is the most effective method for detecting epileptic seizures, with a 96.84% accuracy rate. For diagnosing Epileptic Seizures using EEG signals, the perceptron model has a lower accuracy of 76.21% percent. 2021 IEEE. -
Classification and analysis of Alzheimer's Disease using Deep Learning methods on MRI and PET
Alzheimer's disease (AD) falls in the category of neurodegenerative illness in which an individual loses his or her power to remember things and behaviors. It affects memory in younger patients and as it progresses causes diffuse cortical functions. However, a major issue with the diagnosis and treatment of AD symptoms is that it has complex pathogenesis because of which there is no clinical intervention for its treatment. There is no disease-modifying treatment to cure AD symptoms that increases co-morbidities among the patients. The present research identified this gap and focuses on using Deep Learning methods on MRI and PET data so that there is early diagnosis of AD by healthcare experts and they could propose a better treatment process for reducing AD symptoms. The present research identified that by using deep learning-based approaches particularly ResNet50 architecture, there is the execution of quantitative assessment of brain MRI and PET to acquire insights about the internal abnormalities through self-learning features. It will help in initiating proper treatment and avoiding damage to the brain further. 2022 IEEE. -
Classification and characterization using HCT/HFOSC spectra of carbon stars selected from the HES survey
We present results from the analysis of 88 carbon stars selected from Hamburg/ESO (HES) survey using low-resolution spectra (R ?1330 & 2190). The spectra were obtained with the Himalayan Faint Object Spectrograph Camera (HFOSC) attached to the 2-m Himalayan Chandra Telescope (HCT). Using well-defined spectral criteria based on the strength of carbon molecular bands, the stars are classified into different groups. In our sample, we have identified 53 CH stars, four C-R stars, and two C-N type stars. Twenty-nine stars could not be classified due to the absence of prominent C2 molecular bands in their spectra. We could derive the atmospheric parameters for 36 stars. The surface temperature was determined using photometric calibrations and synthesis of the H-alpha line profile. The surface gravity log g estimates are obtained using parallax estimates from the Gaia DR3 database whenever possible. Microturbulent velocity (?) was derived using calibration equation of log g & ? . We could determine metallicity for 48 objects from near-infrared Ca II triplet features using calibration equations. The derived metallicity ranges from ?0.43 ? [Fe/H] ? ?3.49. Nineteen objects were found to be metal-poor ([Fe/H] ? ?1), 14 very metal-poor ([Fe/H] ? ?2), and five extremely metal-poor ([Fe/H] ? ?3.0) stars. Eleven objects were found to have a metallicity in the range ?0.43 ? [Fe/H] ? ?0.97. We could derive the carbon abundance for 25 objects using the spectrum synthesis calculation of the C2 band around 5165 The most metal-poor objects found will make important targets for follow-up detailed chemical composition studies based on high-resolution spectroscopy, and are likely to provide insight into the Galactic chemical evolution. 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. -

Classification Framework for Fraud Detection Using Hidden Markov Model
Machine learning is described as a computer program that learns from experience E with regard to some task T and some performance measure P, if its performance on T improves with E as measured by P. Suppose we have a credit card fraud detection which watches which transactions we mark as fraud or not, and on the basis, it knows how to filter better fraudulent transactions then, E is watching your transactions is fraud or not, T is classifying your transactions as fraud or not, P is number of transactions correctly differentiated as spam or not spam. Machine learning has two types: supervised learning and unsupervised learning. Supervised learning is the type of machine learning where machine is provided with input mapped with its output, and these inputs and outputs are used to make a machine learn a particular function from the trained dataset. There are two branches of supervised learning, i.e., classification and regression. In unsupervised learning, we do not supervise model instead we allow machine to work on its own to discover information. Clustering is type of unsupervised learning. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -
Classification of a New-Born Infant's Jaundice Symptoms Using a Binary Spring Search Algorithm with Machine Learning
A yellowing of the skin and eyes, called jaundice, is the consequence of an abnormally high bilirubin concentration in the blood. All across the world, both newborns and adults are afflicted by this illness. Jaundice is common in new-borns because their undeveloped livers have an imbalanced metabolic rate. Kernicterus is caused by a delay in detecting jaundice in a newborn, which can lead to other complications. The degree to which a newborn is affected by jaundice depends in large part on the mitotic count. Nonetheless, a promising tool is early diagnosis using AI-based applications. It is straightforward to implement, does not require any special skills, and comes at a minimal cost. The demand for AI in healthcare has led to the realisation that it may have practical applications in the medical industry. Using a deep learning algorithm, we created a method to categorise jaundice cases. In this study, we suggest using the binary spring search procedure (BSSA) to identify features and the XGBoost classifier to grade histopathology images automatically for mitotic activity. This investigation employs real-time and benchmark datasets, in addition to targeted methods, for identifying jaundice in infants. Evidence suggests that feature quality can have a negative effect on classification accuracy. Furthermore, a bottleneck in classification performance may emerge from compressing the classification approach for unique key attributes. Therefore, it is necessary to discover relevant features to use in classifier training. This can be achieved by integrating a feature selection strategy with a classification classical. Important findings from this study included the use of image processing methods in predicting neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Image processing involves converting photos from analogue to digital form in order to edit them. Medical image processing aims to acquire data that can be used in the detection, diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of disease. Newburn jaundice detection accuracy can be verified using image datasets. As opposed to more traditional methods, it produces more precise, timely, and cost-effective outcomes. Common performance metrics such as accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were also predictive. 2023 Lavoisier. All rights reserved. -
Classification of adaptive back propagation neural network along with fuzzy logic in chronic kidney disease
A steady deterioration in kidney function over months or years is known as chronic kidney disease (CKD). Through a range of techniques, such as pharmacological intervention in moderate cases and hemodialysis and renal transport in severe cases, early identification of CKD is crucial and has a substantial influence on reducing the patient's health development. The outcomes show the patient's kidneys' present state. It is suggested to develop a system for detecting chronic renal disease using machine learning. Finding the best feature sets typically involves using metaheuristic algorithms since feature selection is an NP-hard issue with amorphous polynomials. Semi-crystalline tabu search (TS) is frequently used for both local and global searches. In this study, we employ a brand-new hybrid TS with stochastic diffusion search (SDX)-based feature selection. The adaptive backpropagation neural network (ABPNN-ANFIS) is then classified using fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic may be used to combine the ABPNN findings. Consequently, these techniques can aid experts in determining the stage of chronic renal disease. The Adaptive Neuron Clearing Inference System (ABPNN-ANFIS) was utilised to develop adaptive inverse neural networks using the MATLAB programme. The outcomes demonstrate that the suggested ABPNN-ANFIS is 98 % accurate in terms of efficiency. 2024 -
Classification of Breast Invasive Ductal Carcinomas Using Histopathological Images Based on Deep Learning Techniques
Women suffer from cancer, which is the main reason for death for females around the world. With the use of artificial intelligence, it is possible to predict and detect all types of cancers in the near future. It is not just women who can heal, and most breast cancers are caused by the most vulnerable type of breast. Eighty percent of all diagnoses of carcinoma are invasive ductal carcinomas (IDCs). In this paper, deep learning techniques are extended to support visible semantic evaluation of tumor areas, using convolutional neural networks (CNNs).A CNN is skilled ended a large number of photo covers (tissue areas) after Whole Slide Images (WSI) to study ranked part-based total image. About 600 normal image patches and 200 breast invasive ductal carcinomas are selected for the experiment. It was intended to amount classifier correctness in the detection of IDC tissue areas in Whole Slide Images. We achieved excellent measurable outcomes for an automated finding of IDC areas with our technique. The results are evaluated based on performance measures and compared with a different number of neurons, and the results are highlighted. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -
Classification of countries based on development indices by using K-means and grey relational analysis
Clustering countries based on their development profile is important, as it helps in the efficient allocation and use of resources for institutions like the World Bank, IMF and many others. However, measuring the status of development in each country is challenging, as development encompasses several facets such as economic, social, environmental and institutional aspects. These dimensions should be captured and aggregated appropriately before attempting to classify countries based on development. In this context, this paper attempts to measure various dimensions of development through four indices namely, Economic Index (EI), Social Index (SI), Sustainability Index (SUI) and Institutional Index (II) for the period between 1996 through 2015 for 102 countries. And then we categorize the countries based on these development indices using the grey relational analysis and K-means clustering method. Our study classifies countries into four clusters with twelve countries in the first cluster, fifty in second, twenty-seven and thirteen countries in third and fourth clusters respectively. Having taken each of the dimensions of development independently, our results show that no cluster has performed poorly in all four aspects. 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V. -
Classification of Disaster Tweets using Machine Learning and Deep Learning Techniques
Social networks provide a plethora of information for gathering extra data on people's behavior, trends, opinions, and feelings during human-affecting occurrences, such as natural catastrophes. Twitter is an inevitable communication medium during calamities. People mainly depend on Twitter to announce real-time emergencies. However, it is rarely straightforward if someone is declaring a tragedy. Sentiment analysis of disaster tweets aid in situational awareness and realizing the disaster dynamics. In our paper, we perform a sentimental analysis of disaster tweets using techniques based on machine learning and deep learning. The tweets are pre-processed before being converted into a structured form using Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods. Supervised learning techniques such as the Support Vector Machine and the Naive Bayes Classifier algorithm are used to develop the Classifier, which categorizes tweets into distinct catastrophes and selects the most appropriate algorithm. The chosen algorithm is further enriched with an emoticon detection algorithm for explicit elucidation. Our research would help disaster relief organizations and news agencies to conclude about the state of affairs and do the needful. 2022 IEEE. -
Classification of Diseased Leaves in Plants Using Convolutional Neural Networks
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. -
Classification of epileptic seizures using wavelet packet log energy and norm entropies with recurrent Elman neural network classifier
Electroencephalogram shortly termed as EEG is considered as the fundamental segment for the assessment of the neural activities in the brain. In cognitive neuroscience domain, EEG-based assessment method is found to be superior due to its non-invasive ability to detect deep brain structure while exhibiting superior spatial resolutions. Especially for studying the neurodynamic behavior of epileptic seizures, EEG recordings reflect the neuronal activity of the brain and thus provide required clinical diagnostic information for the neurologist. This specific proposed study makes use of wavelet packet based log and norm entropies with a recurrent Elman neural network (REN) for the automated detection of epileptic seizures. Three conditions, normal, pre-ictal and epileptic EEG recordings were considered for the proposed study. An adaptive Weiner filter was initially applied to remove the power line noise of 50Hz from raw EEG recordings. Raw EEGs were segmented into 1s patterns to ensure stationarity of the signal. Then wavelet packet using Haar wavelet with a five level decomposition was introduced and two entropies, log and norm were estimated and were applied to REN classifier to perform binary classification. The non-linear Wilcoxon statistical test was applied to observe the variation in the features under these conditions. The effect of log energy entropy (without wavelets) was also studied. It was found from the simulation results that the wavelet packet log entropy with REN classifier yielded a classification accuracy of 99.70% for normal-pre-ictal, 99.70% for normal-epileptic and 99.85% for pre-ictal-epileptic. 2016, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht. -
Classification of fibroid using novel fully connected CNN with back propagation classifier (NFCCNNBP)
In this phase, we utilize features extracted from a prior stage to classify uterine fibroids. We employ a predefined dataset with feature values as our training set for a novel classifier called the "Novel Fully Connected CNN with Back Propagation Classifier."This classifier learns from the training set. We then put this method to the test with new images not included in the training dataset. Its primary objective is to assess the extent of infection across the entire uterine surface. Through the adoption of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) combined with Back Propagation (BP), we have achieved an impressive accuracy rate of 98.3% for predictions. When we compare this accuracy to existing classifiers like Fuzzy Logic, Naive Bayes, and SVM, our proposed model, NFCCNNBP, outperforms them significantly. 2024 Author(s). -

Classification of HHO-based Machine Learning Techniques for Clone Attack Detection in WSN
Thanks to recent technological advancements, low-cost sensors with dispensation and communication capabilities are now feasible. As an example, a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a network in which the nodes are mobile computers that exchange data with one another over wireless connections rather than relying on a central server. These inexpensive sensor nodes are particularly vulnerable to a clone node or replication assault because of their limited processing power, memory, battery life, and absence of tamper-resistant hardware. Once an attacker compromises a sensor node, they can create many copies of it elsewhere in the network that share the same ID. This would give the attacker complete internal control of the network, allowing them to mimic the genuine nodes' behavior. This is why scientists are so intent on developing better clone assault detection procedures. This research proposes a machine learning based clone node detection (ML-CND) technique to identify clone nodes in wireless networks. The goal is to identify clones effectively enough to prevent cloning attacks from happening in the first place. Use a low-cost identity verification process to identify clones in specific locations as well as around the globe. Using the Optimized Extreme Learning Machine (OELM), with kernels of ELM ideally determined through the Horse Herd Metaheuristic Optimization Algorithm (HHO), this technique safeguards the network from node identity replicas. Using the node identity replicas, the most reliable transmission path may be selected. The procedure is meant to be used to retrieve data from a network node. The simulation result demonstrates the performance analysis of several factors, including sensitivity, specificity, recall, and detection. 2023, Modern Education and Computer Science Press.

Classification of Hypothyroid Disorder using Optimized SVM Method
Hypothyroidism is an endocrine disorder where the thyroid organ doesn't provide the enough amount of thyroid hormones. It is one of the common diseases found in women. Detection of hypothyroidism needs suitable diagnostic tests to encourage prompt analysis and medication. Accurate and early detection of a disease is more important and compulsory in healthcare domain to facilitate correct and prompt diagnosis and timely treatment. The information generated in healthcare domain is on large scale, crucial and complex with multiple parameters. To interpret and understand such a huge data and retrieve the accurate and relevant information from it is a tedious as well as challenging task. However, there is a need and importance to facilitate the patients with better medical solutions. This will help to reduce the cost, time and give more relief to users by applying advanced and upgraded knowledge. It will also assist to prevent the further complications. The proposed study gains the knowledge from the hypothyroid dataset to predict the level of disease. To identify the level of hypothyroid disorder, we used four classification machine learning techniques, namely KNN (K-Nearest Neighbour), SVM (Support Vector Machines), LR (Logistic Regression) and NN (Artificial Neural Network). The Experimental results compared the classification accuracy of four methods. Logistic Regression method achieved 96.08% accuracy among other three classifiers. But, SVM is found the best classifier after standardizing the data and parameter tuning with accuracy of 99.08%. 2019 IEEE. -
Classification of myocardial ischemia in delayed contrast enhancement using machine learning
This chapter addresses the classification of myocardial ischemia in delayed contrast enhancement using machine-learning techniques for magnetic resonance imaging which solves the social issue of a sudden cardiac death. To automate the classification of myocardial ischemia, the computer-aided design has a crucial path on the mixture ensemble of machine learning. The mixture ensemble of machine learning can partition a high-dimensional image in a simultaneous and competitive way. The detection and the segmentation processes are carried out through Fuzzy C-Means multispectral and single-channel algorithms along with a morphological filtering technique for feature extraction. Furthermore, the feed forward neural network (FFNN) technique is trained through the Levenberg-Marquardt Back Propagation algorithm for the classification of myocardial ischemia in delayed contrast enhancement. The proposed classification model performs well for the classification of myocardial ischemia. The rigorous process of the proposed result reveals that the FFNN classifier produces 99.9% accuracy on the classification of myocardial ischemia and also shows that the given classifier is considered one of the best methods in classifying medical myocardial ischemia. 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Classification of Psychological Disorders by Feature Ranking and Fusion using Gradient Boosting Classification of Psychological Disorders
Negative emotional regulation is a defining element of psychological disorders. Our goal was to create a machine-learning model to classify psychological disorders based on negative emotions. EEG brainwave dataset displaying positive, negative, and neutral emotions. However, negative emotions are responsible for psychological health. In this paper, research focused solely on negative emotional state characteristics for which the divide-and-conquer approach has been applied to the feature extraction process. Features are grouped into four equal subsets and feature selection has been done for each subset by feature ranking approach based on their feature importance determined by the Random Forest-Recursive Feature Elimination with Cross-validation (RF-RFECV) method. After feature ranking, the fusion of the feature subset is employed to obtain a new potential dataset. 10-fold cross-validation is performed with a grid search created using a set of predetermined model parameters that are important to achieving the greatest possible accuracy. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed model has achieved 97.71% accuracy in predicting psychological disorders 2023, International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications.All Rights Reserved. -
Classification of Silicon (Si) Wafer Material Defects in Semiconductor Choosers using a Deep Learning ShuffleNet-v2-CNN Model
The silicon wafer is one of the raw materials used to make semiconductor chipsets. Semiconductor failure or dysfunction could be the result of defects in the layers of this material. As a result, it is essential to work toward the development of a system that is both quick and precise in identifying and classifying wafer defects. Wafer map analysis is necessary for the quality control and analysis of the semiconductor manufacturing process. There are some failure patterns that can be displayed by wafer maps. These patterns can provide essential details that can assist engineers in determining the reason of wafer failures. In this research, a deep-learning-based silicon wafer defect identification and classification model is proposed. The main objective of this research is to identify and classify the silicon wafer defects using the wafer map images. This proposed model identifies and classifies the defects based on the wafer map images from the WM-811K dataset. The proposed model is composed of a pretrained deep transfer learning model called ShuffleNet-v2 with convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture. This ShuffleNet-v2-CNN performs the defects identification and classification process following the workflow of data preprocessing, data augmentation, feature extraction, and classification. For performance evaluation, the proposed ShuffleNet-v2-CNN is evaluated with performance metrics like accuracy, recall, precision, and f1-score. The proposed model has obtained an overall accuracy of 96.93%, 95.40% precision, 96.26% recall, and 95.75% F1-score in classifying the silicon wafer defects based on the wafer map images. 2022 Rajesh Doss et al.
