Identification of Predominant Genes that Causes Autism Using MLP
Autism or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disorder comprising a group of psychiatric conditions originating in childhood that involve serious impairment in different areas. This paper aims to detect the principal genes which cause autism. Those genes are identified using a multi-layer perceptron network with sigmoid as an activation function. The multi-layer perceptron model selected sixteen genes through different feature selection techniques and also identified a combination of genes that caused the disease. From the background study, it is observed that CAPS2 and ANKUB1 are the major disease-causing genes but the accuracy of the model is less. The selected 16 genes along with CAPS2 and ANKUB1 produce more accuracy than the existing model which proved 95% prediction rate. The analysis of the proposed model shows that the combination of the predicted genes along with CAPS2 and ANKUB1 will help to identify autism at an early stage. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -
Identification Of Quality Of Tea Leaves By Using Artificial Intelligence Techniques: A Review
This paper summarizes the outcome of the survey carried out for quality identification of a tea leaf and eventually price prediction. Quality identification can allow to categorizing leaf in different grades, which helps the buyer and seller to acquire suitable quality to their need. Price prediction is an important feature, which can bring certainty at price and farmers can be benefitted more for their good quality. Additionally, if the leaf disease is identified at the initial stage that would also allow farmers to timely resolve the concerned issues and save their corps. In the field of agriculture, this has been always a research area to identify and predict the quality of tea leaves. Various artificial intelligence techniques are hot topics in the field of recognition and their effective combination can not only solve the problem but also enhance recognition accuracy. Therefore, there is an imminent need for a detailed survey on compiling techniques used for the identification of different varieties of tea plants. In this research, we aim to propose a review of the various techniques which can be utilized for determining the quality and price prediction. The Survey is hybrid with a combination of different artificial techniques, which is a suitable approach to target effective tea leaf identification. Further for the classification of tea leaf images, various algorithms can be combined as well to obtain better results and different algorithms can be used for feature extraction based on texture extraction, color extraction, and shape extraction.

Identification of Student Programming Patterns through Clickstream Data
In present educational era, teaching programming to the undergraduates is challenging. For an instructor, focusing on each of the aspect of programming like coding language, logical reasoning, debugging errors, troubleshooting code and problem solving is very daunting task. So, educational researchers are identifying ways to easily identify the student's struggles during programming so that timely assistance can be provided. Using programming platforms or software, a lot of programming data is generated in the form of activity logs or clickstream data. Using machine learning along with data analytics over this programming data can reveal programming patterns of students that may help in early interventions. This study focusses on identifying programming patterns of the students through clustering and groups the students into three major categories namely low performers, strugglers, and high scorers. Further, relevant features like test case success, code compile success and failure, finish test etc. that majorly contribute towards the student programming scores are identified through regression analysis. Through this research, educators can early categorize the students based on their programming patterns and provide timely intervention when necessary, ensuring that no student gets left behind in the fast-paced world of programming education. 2024 IEEE. -
Identification of Superclusters and Their Properties in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Using the WHL Cluster Catalog
Superclusters are the largest massive structures in the cosmic web, on tens to hundreds of megaparsec scales. They are the largest assembly of galaxy clusters in the Universe. Apart from a few detailed studies of such structures, their evolutionary mechanism is still an open question. In order to address and answer the relevant questions, a statistically significant, large catalog of superclusters covering a wide range of redshifts and sky areas is essential. Here, we present a large catalog of 662 superclusters identified using a modified friends-of-friends algorithm applied on the WHL (Wen-Han-Liu) cluster catalog within a redshift range of 0.05 ? z ? 0.42. We name the most massive supercluster at z ? 0.25 as the Einasto Supercluster. We find that the median mass of superclusters is ?5.8 1015 M ? and the median size ?65 Mpc. We find that the supercluster environment slightly affects the growth of clusters. We compare the properties of the observed superclusters with the mock superclusters extracted from the Horizon Run 4 cosmological simulation. The properties of the superclusters in the mocks and observations are in broad agreement. We find that the density contrast of a supercluster is correlated with its maximum extent with a power-law index, ? ? ?2. The phase-space distribution of mock superclusters shows that, on average, ?90% of part of a supercluster has a gravitational influence on its constituents. We also show the mock halos average number density and peculiar velocity profiles in and around the superclusters. 2023. The Author(s). Published by the American Astronomical Society. -
Identification of the Functional Limitation of Marine Loading or Unloading Arm; A Case Study
Marine loading or unloading arms are used to transfer product from tanker vessels that often carries products like petroleum or chemicals from or to the tankers. Cochin Port has dedicated Tanker jetties for handling petroleum with Marine Loading Arms installed for safe handling of cargo. However, my studies in Cochin Port Trust have shown that it has a potential threat to tackle while it is taken for the maintenance process. The case study aids in understanding of the working of marine unloading arm installed in the port and to identify the functional or safety limitations of the existing model installed. This case study also proves that a small change in the design can bring about a big change in the safety of the people working with the equipment. The identified parameters have been studied for providing the necessary alterations of the design which could be implemented on the upcoming project of constructing the marine unloading arm in Cochin Port Trust. To support faster and safety loading/unloading requirement these hydraulically operated marine loading arms are fitted with emergency release couplings and emergency release system. Marine Loading Arms are operated by using the hydraulic system. During maintenance procedure while checking the Emergency Release System (ERS) functionality, accidental release of Emergency release coupling can cause fatality. Hence a fool proof design is suggested with an extra locking arrangement. The studies conducted till now and the reviews conducted contributed in the analysis of the development and validation of the design. A design of a locking machanism for preventing the fatality is created and analysed for suggesting it to the industry so that it could be incorperated in the upcoming project of constructing the marine loading and unloading arm. 2023 American Institute of Physics Inc..

Identifying Social-Cognitive Factors Influencing Aggression in Adolescents: A Cross-Sectional Indian Study
Adolescence is a critical period during which the likelihood of experiencing self-regulation failures like aggressive outbursts is increased. Recent Indian studies on adolescents have reported an increasing incidence of aggressive acts during this time of transition, which is a threat to the adolescent, the victim and society in general. This study focuses on the social-cognitive perspective, implying that aggression is a social behaviour that is largely affected by ones beliefs about the acceptability of aggression and the degree of cognitive and effortful control they have over their emotions. Such beliefs are likely to be influenced by emotion socialisation, wherein parents and peers act as key agents. With this perspective, the current study, through a mediational model, explains the social-cognitive factors predicting aggressive behaviour in adolescents. This is a cross-sectional, descriptive study carried out on a sample of 475 adolescent students from the Delhi-NCR region recruited through purposive sampling. The data were collected through self-report questionnaires from schools and colleges. The model was tested using SPSS AMOS and was found to be a good fit for the data. The findings of this study are crucial from a risk and intervention perspective. It emphasises the need to build socially and emotionally competent students who not only have the skills needed to succeed but also nurture healthy social relationships and maintain positive mental health through adaptive emotion regulation skills. 2024 Department of Psychology, University of Allahabad. -
Identifying the Determinants of Maladaptive Pain Perception and Response Patterns: Predictive Analysis With XGBoost and Random Forests
A complex interplay of psychological, biological, and social factors influences pain perception and response patterns. This study aims to identify the determinants of maladaptive pain perception and response patterns through predictive analysis using psychological variables such as resilience, neuroticism, extraversion, grit, and optimism. A quantitative approach was used, incorporating predictive modeling techniques (decision trees, XGBoost, and Random Forests) to assess pain cata strophizing and sensitivity among 305 Indians. The XGBoost classifier predicting clinically significant pain catastrophizing achieved an accuracy of 74%. Findings indicate that neuroticism is a key predictor of pain-related outcomes, with resil ience & optimism serving as protective factors. The study highlights the potential for personalized interventions by utilizing machine learning models to optimize predictor levels for improved pain management. The results underscore the need for further research incorporating biological and environmental factors to develop holistic pain management strategies. 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.

Identifying the population of T-Tauri stars in Taurus: UVoptical synergy
With the third data release of the Gaia mission, Gaia DR3 with its precise photometry and astrometry, it is now possible to study the behavior of stars at a scale never seen before. In this paper, we developed new criteria to identify T-Tauri stars (TTS) candidates using UV and optical color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) by combining the GALEX and Gaia surveys. We found 19 TTS candidates and five of them are newly identified TTS in the Taurus molecular cloud (TMC), not cataloged before as TMC members. For some of the TTS candidates, we also obtained optical spectra from several Indian telescopes. We also present the analysis of distance and proper motion of young stars in the Taurus using data from Gaia DR3. We found that the stars in Taurus show a bimodal distribution with distance, having peaks at 130.17-1.241.31 pc and 156.25-5.001.86 pc. The reason for this bimodality, we think, is due to the fact that different clouds in the TMC region are at different distances. We further showed that the two populations have similar ages and proper motion distribution. Using the Gaia DR3 CMD, we showed that the age of Taurus is consistent with 1Myr. 2023, Indian Academy of Sciences. -
Identifying Wage Inequality in Indian Urban Informal Labour Market: A Gender Perspective
This chapter elucidates the wage differential between male and female informal workers in urban labour market by using employment and unemployment survey 61st (2004-2005) round, 68th (2011-2012), and Periodic Labour Force Survey 2019-2020 data of National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) unit level data. This study found that gender inequality not only increased during getting job but also persists after getting job during wage distribution. Based on the Oaxaca-Blinder (OB) decomposition, it is revealed that gender wage inequality is more in the labour market due to the labour market discrimination, that is, unexplained components. Hence, this study helps researcher, policy makers and government to fix the gender wage discrimination issues exist in the Indian labour market. This will enhance economic growth through the rise of the women labour force participation. 2024 A. Vinodan, S. Mahalakshmi, and S. Rameshkumar. -
IDENTITIES AT THE DINNER TABLE: COMMENSALITY, SELF-PERCEPTION, AND RELATIONSHIPS IN ANNE CHERIANS A GOOD INDIAN WIFE
Food studies is rapidly gaining ground as a multidisciplinary area of research. Within it, literary food studies brings an interdisciplinary perspective as works of literature are viewed through the lens of food that is informed by frameworks and concepts that are rooted in a variety of fields including cultural anthropology, sociology, and more. one such concept that is in focus here is that of commensality that is associated with food and food practices. Commensality, drawing from notions of conviviality, refers to the practice of sharing a table and consuming food together. Deeper meanings of communal identities come to the fore in this social practice, leading it to shape how identities are understood and projected. Commensality can be a complex site of belonging and alienation depending on the context, and this paper seeks to explore the representation of the same in Anne Cherians A Good Indian Wife (2008). Leila, the titular Indian wife in the novel, moves to the US from India after her marriage to Neel and grapples with finding her place in the foreign land. With this displacement comes the endeavor to reaffirm her new identity, which now includes the role of being a wife and the aspect of being an immigrant. Neel also deals with complicated feelings towards the projection of his identity. With food playing a crucial role in the everyday experiences of their lives, commensality becomes a point of enquiry into how they see themselves and how their relationships with each other and themselves evolve through the course of the narrative. 2024 Nayana George. -
Identity and access management for IOT devices
Identity and Access Management (IAM) for Internet of Things (IoT) devices is crucial in safeguarding the security and integrity of interconnected systems. This critical analysis explores the unique challenges and solutions associated with IAM in the context of IoT environments. IoT devices, characterized by their diverse types and widespread deployment, present significant complexities in managing identities and controlling access. Traditional IAM frameworks often fall short when applied to the dynamic and distributed nature of IoT networks, where devices frequently interact autonomously and may lack standardization. The analysis identifies key issues such as scalability, interoperability, and real-time authentication. It highlights the need for advanced IAM solutions that can handle the vast number of devices, support diverse protocols, and ensure robust security measures. Emerging technologies, including blockchain and AI-driven authentication, offer promising avenues for enhancing IAM in IoT contexts. Blockchain can provide decentralized, tamper-proof identity management, while AI can enhance real-time threat detection and adaptive access control. The review underscores the importance of developing IAM frameworks that are both flexible and scalable to address the evolving security requirements of IoT environments. By addressing these challenges, organizations can better secure their IoT infrastructure and mitigate risks associated with unauthorized access and identity breaches. 2026 Elsevier Inc.

Identity in Consumption: Reading Food and Intersectionality in Anita Desai's Fasting, Feasting
With the resurging interest in Food Studies, this rapidly emerging field of study has seen multiple disciplines adding in their distinct flavours that truly make this an area to savour. Literary food studies, in particular, has become a relevant field of study with the understanding that food in literature always plays a symbolic role, as food in literature is never depicted for the sustenance of the literary characters. This paper seeks to explore the novel Fasting, Feasting (1999) by Anita Desai through the lens of food and foodways to explicate how the characters interact with the culinary arena, and ultimately, interact with each other and themselves. These interactions will serve as crucial insights into their identities, particularly their intersectional gender identities considering the facets of nationality, class, and the like. A special focus will also be rendered on the notion of marginalisation seen in the text, of which gender is a crucial deciding factor. The title of the novel hints at consumption-at both its presence and absence-which will prove as the gateway to the interactions of the characters with food in the novel to examine who it is that gets to feast while who are forced to starve. 2022 Aesthetics Media Services.

Identity-based message authentication scheme using proxy vehicles for vehicular ad hoc networks
Message authentication verifies the identity of the sender vehicle, ensuring it in between vehicles and Road Side Units (RSU) is an essential part of Vehicular Adhoc Networks. Signature verification in RSUs will be troublesome if a large number of vehicles enters in its region at the same time. In such cases the efficiency of the RSUs will be affected due to high computational overhead. To address this issue, proxy vehicle based message authentication scheme (ID-MAP) is proposed by Asaar et al. (ITVT 67: 5409, 2018). It uses proxy vehicles to reduce the overheads of the RSU by verifying multiple messages at the same time. Even though it deals with the efficiency issues of RSU, the computational cost of signature generation is high. Since the ability of a vehicle to act as a proxy vehicle is based on the number of signed messages, it has a major impact. It also cannot guarantee privacy preservation and hence it is insecure against attacks based on privacy preservation. It also has other drawbacks like storage issues and high overheads. Hence, a new identity based message authentication using proxy vehicles is proposed in this paper. Elliptic Curve Cryptography based scheme is used without pairings for message authentication. Proxy vehicles will verify multiple messages from vehicles through batch verification and send the result to the RSU. The identity of multiple proxy vehicles will be verified by RSU, it can also cross check the correctness of the received result. Thereby RSUs can verify a large number of messages at the same time with the help of proxy vehicles. Security analysis shows that if each proxy vehicle verifies 300 messages of its neighbor vehicles, then with the help of proxy vehicles an RSU can verify 226,244 messages per second which is 40% less than that of ID-MAP scheme. It also shows that the computational cost to generate a signature in the proposed scheme is 50% less than that of ID-MAP scheme. 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature. -

Idiosyncratic Deals and Motherhood Stress: Understanding the Mediating Effect of Work to Family Enrichment with Moderating Effect of Workplace Dignity
Motherhood stress has developed as a substantial yet underexplored outcome of present-day employment practices, particularly in organizational contexts where flexibility is increasingly individualized. While prior research has examined motherhood stress, flexible work arrangements, and idiosyncratic deals largely in isolation, limited attention has been given to how personalized flexibility shapes the psychological experiences of working mothers. This study attempts to bridge this gap by examining how I-deals influence motherhood stress through psychological and relational mechanisms embedded within organizational and socio-cultural contexts. Drawing on interdisciplinary literature, this study positions I-deals as context-dependent resources whose effects on motherhood stress are mediated by work family enrichment and where workplace dignity has a moderating role. The study adopts a quantitative survey approach across 410 female employees in the Indian IT sector to test the proposed hypotheses among working mothers. The study establishes a direct and negative association between Idiosyncratic deals and work to family enrichment which further plays a mediating role with motherhood stress. It also found that workplace dignity plays a significant role in moderating the association between I-deals and work to family enrichment. The study contributes by integrating organizational behaviour and motherhood research, reconceptualizing flexibility as a psychologically contingent practice, and highlighting the importance of work to family enrichment and dignity in shaping stress outcomes. The findings offer an understanding and practical insights for organizations looking to design flexibility policies that genuinely support working mothers without inadvertently intensifying stress. 2026, Iquz Galaxy Publisher.

Idiosyncratic Deals: Understanding Effect of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation I-Deals on Innovative Work Behaviour
I-deals or Idiosyncratic deals are specialised, adaptable work patterns by mutual agreement between employees and their managers to meet demands of a dynamic work place. Innovative work behaviour also known as IWB is referred to as the employee behaviour that intends to create and introduce novel and valuable products, processes, innovations and ways of working within a job-role or work-group of an organization. This research discovers the connection between various types of intrinsic and extrinsic motivational deals such as the work responsibility idiosyncratic deals, flexibility deals and financial ones and innovative behaviour, specially within the purview of the working women. It also provides an overview on the outcome of these deals on innovation at a workplace. Our study adopted descriptive research to assess the association of Idiosyncratic deals with IWB using a quantitative study across 352 female employees of Indian Corporate sector. It was found that there exists a direct and positive association amid intrinsically and extrinsically motivated Idiosyncratic deals and an innovative mind-set, in the context of Indian IT sector. This study establishes the influence of idiosyncratic deals and the motivational factors within them in driving an innovative mind set. Thus, the study helps to recognize the value that I-deals brings in establishing an effective innovative environment for employees playing a vital role in the growth of the organization. 2024, Iquz Galaxy Publisher.

IDS for Internet of things (IoT) and Industrial IoT Network
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a swiftly increasing domain of interconnected gadgets, technologies, and structures that may be achieved in a small, tightly associated environment or can travel across big geographic areas, including Smart Cities. IoT devices are increasingly deployed for numerous goals inclusive of records sensing, accumulating, and controlling. The IoT enhances user affairs by permitting a huge variety of smart gadgets to link and possible information. IoT gadgets are hastily evolving universally while IoT offerings have become pervasive. IoT devices include a big assortment of devices, along with small, embedded sensors, AI assistants, digital cameras, and so on, which can be found in various backgrounds, i.e., Smart Homes, Smart Communities, and Smart Cities. Smart Cities have developed into intriguing areas with technologies consisting of traffic-conscious streetlights which dynamically react to emergencies by editing site visitors styles. Moreover, with the adoption of 5G networks, technologies and techniques throughout towns have become blended. This persevered improvement of IoT advocated the expansion of sophisticated and complicated systems which appreciably adjust the community. However, these technologies have guided to a brand new threat to the security of grids. Many present-day malware assaults, targeted at classic computer systems linked to the Internet, will also be required for IoT gadgets. With those enhancements, malicious actors have found new methods to control their weaknesses. One of the biggest cyber-attacks in instances of terabits in step with 2d operated, infected IoT gadgets harmonized within a botnet provides a massive DDoS assault which disrupts the Internet range for large geographic regions. This attack underlines the increasing hazard posed via uncertain IoT devices. Moreover, attacks that include those are evolving as greater threats as a larger quantity of exposed gadgets is introduced to networks throughout the globe. Their actions are anomalous and higher are the numbers of hazards and assaults toward IoT devices. Cyber-attacks arent new to the IoT, however as the IoT may be deeply interwoven in our lives and societies, traditional protection resolutions are inadequate when managing these dangers. Oftentimes, safety answers are created to run locally on host appliances, i.e., antivirus software, or as standalone machines (i.e. community firewalls and intrusion detection structures (IDSs). However, the IoT has obtained a clean set of community protocols, together with Zigbee, Ant+, and 6LoWPAN, that traditional safety solutions, such as rule-primarily based firewalls and host-based total antivirus software programs, had been not equipped with or have no longer been revised to account for. Moreover, many IoT gadgets suffer from computational, storehouse, or network situations. Due to those constraints, IoT safety answers, especially an IoT IDS, must be lightweight enough, in phrases of the computational, garage, and networking resources, to be living on the devices but sturdy enough to accurately hit upon potential intrusions. Therefore, a holistic method needs to be regular while coming to IoT intrusion detection. IoT devices cant be considered in a vacuum as self-contained machines due to the fact a totally fledged, modern protection answer is just too aid-annoying for constructing on those gadgets. The normal safety of the network necessitates IoT gadgets to be included as associates within a security answer rather than as man or woman nodes. Therefore, green protection of IoT devices could keep millions of net customers away from malicious moves. However, present malware detection techniques are afflicted by excessive computational complexity. Hence, theres a real necessity to protect the IoT, which has therefore resulted in a requirement to completely recognize the threats and assaults in an IoT infrastructure. 2024 selection and editorial matter, Mayank Swarnkar and Shyam Singh Rajput; individual chapters, the contributors.
