Engagement Detection through Facial Emotional Recognition Using a Shallow Residual Convolutional Neural Networks
Online teaching and learning has recently turned out to be the order of the day, where majority of the learners undergo courses and trainings over the new environment. Learning through these platforms have created a requirement to understand if the learner is interested or not. Detecting engagement of the learners have sought increased attention to create learner centric models that can enhance the teaching and learning experience. The learner will over a period of time in the platform, tend to expose various emotions like engaged, bored, frustrated, confused, angry and other cues that can be classified as engaged or disengaged. This paper proposes in creating a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and enabling it with residual connections that can enhance the learning rate of the network and improve the classification on three Indian datasets that predominantly work on classroom engagement models. The proposed network performs well due to introduction of Residual learning that carries additional learning from the previous batch of layers into the next batch, Optimized Hyper Parametric (OHP) setting, increased dimensions of images for higher data abstraction and reduction of vanishing gradient problems resulting in managing overfitting issues. The Residual network introduced, consists of a shallow depth of 50 layers which has significantly produced an accuracy of 91.3% on ISED & iSAFE data while it achieves a 93.4% accuracy on the Daisee dataset. The average accuracy achieved by the classification network is 0.825 according to Cohens Kappa measure. 2020, Intelligent Engineering & System. All rights reserved. -
Engine behavior analysis on a conventional diesel engine combustion mode powered by low viscous cedarwood oil/waste cooking oil biodiesel/diesel fuel mixture An experimental study
Binary biofuel is the best alternative source that completely replaces petroleum-based fuel. In this study, we have experimented with the waste cooking oil and cedarwood oil as biofuel in a DI CI engine for various proportions and related its combustion, emission, and performance characteristics to those of base diesel. This study aims to eliminate the utilization of fossil fuel in a diesel engine by introducing green binary fuel (low viscous fuel resulting from the blending of cedarwood oil with WCO biodiesel) successfully. The objective of the study is to convert cedarwood WCO into green binary fuel and investigate its performance, emission, and combustion properties. The transesterification process is utilized for the enhancement of WCO as biodiesel. It occasioned a reduction in brake thermal efficiency as the addition of waste cooking oil in the blend increased. At the same time, the maximum value of BTE of 27.8% was attained for B10C90 (10% transesterified waste cooking oil and 90% cedarwood oil in volume), whereas it was 28.1% for diesel at maximum load conditions. The BSEC was 15.4 MJ/kW-hr for B10C90 and 12.8 MJ/kWhr for diesel. The emission characteristics, CO, HC, NOx, CO2, and smoke for B10C90 were 17.93 g/kWhr, 0.55 g/kWhr., 20.09 g/kWhr, 2210.9 g/kWhr, and 25.55%. Combustion features such as NHRR, burn duration, MPRR, combustion efficiency, Ignition delay, and coefficient of variance for B10C90 were 53.74 bar, 29.38 CAD, 4.71 bar/CAD, 99.7%, 7.01 CAD, and 4.73% respectively. It showed that B10C90 had comparable performance (BTE) and combustion values to mineral diesel with better emission characteristics. 2024 The Institution of Chemical Engineers -
Engineered biocorona on microplastics as a toxicity mitigation strategy in marine environment: Experiments with a marine crustacean Artemia salina
The marine environment has become a major sink for microplastics (MPs) wastes. When MPs interact with biological macromolecules, the biocorona forms on their surface, which can alter their biological reactivity and toxicity. In this study, we investigated the impact of biocorona formation on the toxicity of aminated (NH2) and carboxylated (COOH) polystyrene MPs towards the marine crustacean Artemia salina. Biocoronated MPs were prepared using cell-free extracts (CFEs) from microalgae Chlorella sp. (phytoplankton) and the brine shrimp Artemia salina (zooplankton). The results revealed that biocorona formation effectively reduced the toxicity of MPs. Pristine NH2-MPs exhibited higher reactive oxygen species production (ROS) (182%) compared to COOH-MPs (162%) in Artemia salina. Notably, NH2-MPs coronated with brine shrimp CFE exhibited a substantial reduction in ROS production (127%) than those coronated with algal CFE, with COOH-MPs showing a similar trend (120%). Biocorona formation also significantly decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and antioxidant activity compared to pristine MPs. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations demonstrated a strong binding between polystyrene and acetylcholinesterase (AChE). In vitro studies indicated that pristine NH2-MPs exhibited more reduction in AChE activity (84%) compared to COOH-MPs (95%). However, no significant reduction in AChE activity was observed upon exposure to MPs coronated with either algal or brine shrimp cell-free extracts. Independent action modeling indicated an antagonistic interaction for MPs coronated with both the CFEs. Pearson correlation and cluster heatmap analysis suggested that the toxicity reduction in Artemia salina might be driven by decreased oxidative stress followed by the corona formation. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the potential of biomolecules from phytoplankton and zooplankton to reduce MPs toxicity in Artemia salina, while highlighting their role in modulating the toxicity of other marine pollutants. 2024 The Author(s) -
Engineering a low-cost diatomite with Zn-Mg-Al Layered triple hydroxide (LTH) adsorbents for the effectual removal of Congo red: Studies on batch adsorption, mechanism, high selectivity, and desorption
In this work, naturally occurring, low-cost diatomite (De) or diatomaceous earth (DE) adsorbent was treated with various molar concentrations (0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 M) of Zn-Mg-Al layered triple hydroxide (LTH) using a co-precipitation approach. The DE-modified samples were named 0.05 LDE, 0.1 LDE, and 0.2 LDE and employed to remove Congo Red (CR) dye from an aqueous solution. The adsorbents were examined using XRD, BET-N2 adsorption-desorption method, ATR-IR, FESEM-EDX, and XPS, and also analyzed for zeta potentials of adsorbents at pH values between 5 and 11 to observe their surface charges. The removal efficiencies of CR were 96.5%, 99.7%, and 94.5% for 20 mg of 0.05 LDE, 0.1 LDE, and 0.2 LDE, respectively, at pH 7. A bare DE, however, showed a removal efficiency of only 7.4%. After CR adsorption, the maximum adsorption capacities (qmax) of the adsorbents were examined using the Langmuir isotherm, and the results showed that 0.1 LDE-CR (44.0 mgg?1) had a higher qmax than 0.05 LDE-CR (35.6 mgg?1), 0.2 LDE-CR (27.9 mgg?1), and DE-CR (0.9 mgg?1). The optimal adsorbent of 0.1 LDE was utilized for the selectivity and salt effects based on the investigation's efficiency in removing contaminants. 0.1 LDE has been studied for reusability of up to five cycles and can remove CR up to three cycles with 77.7% and 79.9% efficiency using NaCl and NaOH, respectively. The adsorbents may therefore be particularly effective at removing CR from water and beneficial in industrial settings where dye is often used. 2023 Elsevier B.V. -

Engineering the functionality of porous organic polymers (POPs) for metal/cocatalyst-free CO2 fixation at atmospheric conditions
Carbon dioxide (CO2) utilization as C1 feedstock under metal/co-catalyst-free conditions facilitates the development of eco-friendly routes for mitigating atmospheric CO2 concentration and producing value-added compounds. In this regard, herein, we designed a bifunctional porous organic polymer (POP-1) by incorporating acidic (-CONH) and CO2-philic (-NH/N) sites by judicious choice of organic precursors. Indeed, POP-1 exhibits high heat of interaction for CO2 (40.2 kJ/mol) and excellent catalytic performance for transforming carbon dioxide to cyclic carbonates, a high-value commodity chemical with high selectivity and yield under metal/cocatalyst/solvent-free atmospheric pressure conditions. Interestingly, an analogous polymer (POP-2) that lacks basic (-NH/N) sites showed lower CO2 interaction energy (31.6 kJ/mol) and catalytic activity than that of POP-1. The theoretical studies further supported the superior catalytic activity of POP-1 in the absence of Lewis acidic metal and cocatalyst. Notably, POP-1 showed excellent reusability with retention of catalytic performance for multiple cycles of usage. Overall, this work presents a novel approach to metal/cocatalyst/solvent-free utilization of CO2 under eco-friendly atmospheric pressure conditions. 2024 Elsevier Ltd -

MT5 model outshines others in terms of an average loss of 4.75; meanwhile, LSTM has an average loss of 5.56, and the seq-to-seq model has an average loss of 6.09, implying weaker Translation. 2024 IEEE. -
Enhanced AIS Based Intrusion Detection System Using Natural Killer Cells
Intrusion detection system is used to monitor the system and network activities to identify anomalies and attacks so that integrity, availability, and confidentiality can be preserved. Here an intrusion detection system based on Artificial Immune System is proposed based on Natural Killer (NK) cells with immunological memory. NK cells are created and each NK cells detection radius is determined using the negative selection algorithm and is trained to detect various attacks. Effective cells with high fairness values are proliferated and distributed to the network using clonal selection algorithm. In this paper, two types of NK cell are used-a Heavyweight NK cell (HWNK) and a number of Lightweight NK cells (LWNK). The incoming data is vectorized and Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I (MHC1) is created. Then based on this MHC1, any of the receptors i.e. Activating Receptor or Inhibiting Receptor is activated. If it is the signature of an attack, Activating Receptor is activated. Activating receptor activation results in either cytokine release or apoptosis. Here cytokine release means an alarm is generated informing the administrator and apoptosis stands for dropping of the packet. If Inhibiting Receptor is activated, it's a normal packet there is no action taken. The technique proposed yields high accuracy, better detection rate and quick response time. 2020 River Publishers.

Enhanced Channel Division Method for Estimation of Discharge in Meandering Compound Channel
Accurate prediction of shear force distribution along the boundary in open channels is a key to the solution of numerous hydraulic problems. The problem becomes more complicated for meandering compound channels. A model is developed for predicting the percentage of shear force at the floodplain (%Sfp) of two-stage meandering channels using gene-expression programming (GEP) by considering five dimensionless parameters viz. the width ratio, relative depth, sinuosity, bed slope, and meander belt width ratio as the inputs in the model. Basing on the %Sfp, the apparent shear force along the division lines of separation in compound channels is selected for discharge calculation using the conventional channel division methods. An Enhanced Channel Division Method (ECDM) is introduced to calculate discharge by assuming interface line at main channel and floodplain junction. A modified variable-inclined (MVI) interface is suggested having zero apparent shear determined from flow contribution in the main channel and floodplain. The MVI interface is further used to calculate discharge in the meandering compound channels. Performance of the GEP model is tested against other analytical methods of calculating %Sfp. Error between the observed and calculated discharges using the MVI interface is found to be the minimum when compared to other interface methods. The enhance channel division method is successfully applied for validating the two available overbank discharge values for the river Baitarani at Anandapur (drainage area of 8570 sq. km), giving the minimum errors of 0.31% and 1.02% for flow depths of 7.5m and 8.63m, respectively. 2020, Springer Nature B.V. -

Enhanced Design and Performance Analysis of a Seven-Level Multilevel Inverter for High-Power Applications
The structure and performance analysis of a seven-level multilevel inverter is discussed in this study. Due to their capacity to get around the drawbacks of traditional two-level inverters, like high voltage stress on power devices and harmonic distortion, multilevel inverters have attracted a lot of attention lately. Multiple voltage levels can be produced by the seven-level multilevel inverter which is being proposed because it uses a sequential arrangement of power sources and capacitors. The design methodology involves selecting appropriate power devices and capacitance values to achieve the desired voltage levels while minimizing losses and ensuring reliable operation. Total harmonic distortion (THD), inverter efficiency, and voltage stress on power devices are all considered as part of the performance analysis. In comparison to conventional two-level inverters, simulation results indicate that the proposed seven-level multilevel inverter offers lower THD, increased efficiency, and reduced voltage stress. This research contributes to the advancement of multilevel inverter technology and its potential applications in various power conversion systems. 2023 IEEE. -
Enhanced dielectric and supercapacitive properties of spherical like Sr doped Sm2O3@CoO triple oxide nanostructures
Integrating the hybrid nanostructures exhibiting enhanced storage and electrical properties requires tuning of composition of constituents. To address this issue, we prepared Sr2+ nanoparticles (NPs) decorated over Sm2O3@CoO nanostructures (NS) by chemical precipitation. The structure integrity of the composite was determined by analytical tools. Based on the strongest peak of X-ray diffraction (XRD), crystallite size of the nanoparticles was determined to be 26.14 nm, indicating a mixed phase of monoclinic and tetragonal crystal formation. FESEM revealed a spherical-like morphology with a homogeneous distribution of microstructures with average sizes ranging from 68 nm to 60 nm. The optical absorptivity revealed a redshift in absorption bands centred at 337.0 nm, 343.9 nm, and 353.0 nm in UV-region. The optical band gap of NS was found to be in the range of 3.38 eV to 3.15 eV, and the BET surface area of Sr15%:Sm2O3@CoO was found to be 458469 cm2/g with a corresponding pore size of 13.17 nm. All Sr-doped Sm2O3@CoO NS exhibited higher ionic conductivity and dielectric constant than undoped material. In an aqueous KOH electrolyte, the NS showed a specific capacity of 234.2C/g (65.1mAh/g) demonstrating the material as potential candidate in energy storage and dielectrics. 2022 Elsevier Ltd -
Enhanced Edge Computing Model by using Data Combs for Big Data in Metaverse
The Metaverse is a huge project undertaken by Facebook in order to bring the world closer together and help people live out their dreams. Even handicapped can travel across the world. People can visit any place and would be safe in the comfort of their homes. Meta (Previously Facebook) plans to execute this by using a combination of AR and VR (Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality). Facebook aims to bring this technology to the people soon. However, a big factor in this idea that needs to be accounted for is the amount of data generation that will take place. Many Computer Science professors and scientists believe that the amount of data Meta is going to generate in one day would almost be equal to the amount of data Instagram/Facebook would have generated in their entire lifetime. This will push the entire data generation by at least 30%, if not more. Using traditional methods such as cloud computing might seem to become a shortcoming in the near future. This is because the servers might not be able to handle such large amounts of data. The solution to this problem should be a system that is designed specifically for handling data that is extremely large. A system that is not only secure, resilient and robust but also must be able to handle multiple requests and connections at once and yet not slow down when the number of requests increases gradually over time. In this model, a solution called the DHA (Data Hive Architecture) is provided. These DHAs are made up of multiple subunits called Data Combs and those are further broken down into data cells. These are small units of memory which can process big data extremely fast. When information is requested from a client (Example: A Data Warehouse) that is stored in multiple edges across the world, then these Data Combs rearrange the data cells within them on the basis of the requested criteria. This article aims to explain this concept of data combs and its usage in the Metaverse. 2023 IEEE. -
Enhanced electrical properties of CuO:CoO decorated with Sm2O3 nanostructure for high-performance supercapacitor
In the present investigation, we have synthesized samarium (Sm) nanoparticles (NPs) and anchored them onto the surface of CuO:CoO nanostructure (NS) by utilizing a simple chemical precipitation method. Nanostructures (NS) were characterized utilizing powdered X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM), transmission electron spectroscopy (TEM), UVvisible spectroscopy (UVVis), and BrunauerEmmettTeller (BET) studies. Resulting Smx CuO: CoO (x = 1%, 5%, 10%, and 12%) NS were investigated for their anomalous electrical and supercapacitive behavior. NS energy storage performance was experimentally determined using cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic chargedischarge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Sm10%CuO:CoO exhibited better electrochemical response than other samples and showed a maximum specific capacitance of 283.6F/g at 0.25A/g in KOH electrolyte. However, contrary to our expectation, NS displayed rectifying nature in I-V, intercalative nature in C-V, and polaronic permittivity in all concentrations of Sm2O3 doping as compared with undoped CuO:CoO NS. The outstanding properties of Smx CuO:CoO NS are attributed to the synergy of high charge mobility of Sm NPs, leading to significant variation in dielectric permittivity, currentvoltage (I-V) response, capacitancevoltage (C-V) behavior, with the formation of Sm3+ ionic cluster. The clusters lead to a change in dipole moment creating a strong local electric field. Additionally, a CR2032 type symmetric supercapacitor cell was fabricated using Sm10%CuO:CoO, which exhibited a maximum specific capacitance of 67.4F/g at 0.1A/g. The cell was also subjected to 5000 GCD cycles where it retained 96.3% Coulombic efficiency.

Enhanced encryption technique for secure iot data transmission
Internet of things is the latest booming innovation in the current period, which lets the physical entity to process and intervene with the virtual entities. As all the entities relate to each other, it generates load of data, which lacks proper security and privacy standards. Cryptography is one of the domains of Network Security, which is one such mechanism that helps the data transmission process to be secure enough over the wireless or wired channel and along with that, it provides authenticity, confidentiality, integrity of data and prevents repudiation. In this paper, we have proposed an alternate enhanced cryptographic solution combing the characteristic of symmetric, asymmetric encryption algorithms and Public Key Server. Here, the key pairs of end points (Users Device and IoT device) are generated using Elliptic Curve Cryptography and the respective public keys are registered in Public Key Server along with their unique MAC address. Thereafter, both the ends will agree on one common private secret key, which will be the base for further cryptographic process using AES algorithm. This model can be called as multi-phase protection mechanism. It will make the process of data transmission secure enough that no intermediate can tamper the data.
