An Abstractive Text Summarization Using Decoder Attention with Pointer Network
Nowadays, large amounts of unstructured data are currently trending on social media and the Web. Text summarising is the process of extracting pertinent information in a concise manner without altering the content's core meaning. Summarising text by hand requires a lot of time, money, and effort. Although deep learning algorithms are commonly applied in abstractive text summarization, further research is clearly needed to fully understand their conjunction with semantic-based or structure-based approaches. The resume dataset is taken for this research work, which is gathered from Kaggle and the dataset includes 1,735 Resumes. This paper presents a unique framework based on the combination of semantic data transformations and deep learning approaches for improving abstractive text summarization. In an attempt to tackle the problem of unregistered words, a solution called Decoder Attention with Pointer Network (DA-PN) has been introduced. This method incorporates the use of a coverage mechanism to prevent word repetition in the generated text summaries. DA-PN is utilized for protecting the spread of increasing errors in generated text summaries. The performance of the proposed method is estimated using the evaluation indicator Recall Oriented Understudy for Gisting Evaluation (ROUGE) and attains an average of 26.28 which is comparatively higher than existing methods. 2023 IEEE. -
An Accurate Multiple Data Based Stock Prediction and Sentiment Analysis Using Synergic Deep Info Convolutional Neural Network
Sentiment analysis is one of the most widely used methods for forecasting stock market action from consumer feedback. Most of the methods associated with sentiment analysis are limited due to low accuracy and enhanced error rate. This is addressed by proposing a synergic squeeze deep info convolutional neural network-advanced variable capsule equilibrium auto encoder (SSDCNN-AVCEAE) for sentiment analysis and accurate multiple data-based stock prediction. Stock market data from NSE Nifty 50 (Mar 2, 2020May 10, 2021) and real-time twitter sentiment analysis are pre-processed through data cleaning and sentiment analyzer lexicon processes. Merging features using SSDCNN, optimized with random search algorithm, mitigates overfitting. SSDCNN eliminates redundant features. Selected features undergo classification by AVCEAE, a fusion of advanced capsule auto encoder (ACAE) and variable equilibrium optimization algorithm, enhancing prediction accuracy for rising or falling stock market movements while minimizing errors. Variable equilibrium optimization refines ACAE parameters. The proposed framework demonstrates exceptional performance with F1-Score, accuracy, false alarm rate, sensitivity, precision, specificity, and error rate reaching 98%, 99%, 0.1%, 99%, 99%, and 0.2%, respectively. The measurements highlight the model's ability to handle a variety of issues, making it a reliable option for precise stock prediction.

An Adaptive Cluster based Vehicular Routing Protocol for Secure Communication
In todays scenario, Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) is one of the modern fields in vehicle communication; it includes a large number of nodes that can be changed arbitrarily with the ability to link or exit the system anytime. Moreover, it has various complexities because of the attacks model in the transmission and communication channel. Besides, most of the attacks are known as black hole attack and wormhole attack. The presence of these attacks causes large damage in the data broadcasting region that ends in data drops or collapses. To defeat these problems, a novel Clustered Vehicle Location protocol for Hybrid Krill Herd and Bat Optimization (CVL-HKH-BO) technique is proposed. Thus, the proposed mechanism of hybrid krill herd and bat optimization is to detect and prevent attacks based on the fitness function. Moreover, secure communication can be enhanced by the proposed technique. Consequently, the solution to energy consumption and packet delay issues are solved using the CVL protocol. The projected strategy is implemented in the Network simulator (Ns-2) platform, and the outcomes show the node energy, overload and delay are minimized by increasing the quantity of packets transmitted in the network. Sequentially, the proposed technique is compared with existing techniques in terms of throughput, packet loss, delay time and data broadcasting ratio. Therefore, the duration of the node can be enhanced and can attain high energy capable data transmission. 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature. -
AN ADAPTIVE HYBRID SCHEDULING APPROACH FOR SUSTAINABLE AND RELIABLE CLOUD SERVICES
The modern cloud computing systems have to plan the heterogeneous workloads and balance performance effectiveness, service availability, and sustainability. In this study, an adaptive hybrid scheduling framework is developed Adaptive Ant-guided Min-Max (AAMM) combining ant-guided optimization with dynamic Min-Min and Max-Min in deciding how to allocate cloud tasks as a multi-objective. The scheduler jointly evaluates task completion time, the likelihood of Service Level Agreement violations, energy consumption, and monetary cost within a unified scoring framework, enabling informed trade-offs among competing objectives. AAMM is assessed based on a real disaggregated Deep Learning Recommendation Model workload of 1,544 heterogeneous tasks, running on heterogeneous virtual machines. Comparative experiments are done with Min-Min, Max-Min and ACO-guided Min-Min scheduling strategies. According to experimental findings, the suggested approach has been very effective in reducing energy per task, cost per task, SLA violations are significantly lowered, and flow time stability is enhanced. Though moderate growth in the makespan is witnessed, the accompanying trade-off has created equal distribution of resources and service reliability. 2026 Academy and Industry Research Collaboration Center (AIRCC).

An adaptive inertia weight teachinglearning-based optimization for optimal energy balance in microgrid considering islanded conditions
The energy balance in islanded microgrids is a complex task due to various operational constraints. This paper proposes a new approach to multi-objective optimization for achieving energy balance in aMicrogrid(MG) in both islanded and normal modes. Optimal load control (OLC)is achallenge, due to a lack of capacity to generate the global optimum after each run. The latest variant of Teaching Learning Based Optimization (TLBO), known as Adaptive-TLBO, includes both modifications during exploitation and exploration stages (ATLBO). The results achievedwith the proposed method are exceptional on a modified IEEE 33-bus system. In addition to the improvement of the voltage profile and the decrease of the distribution losses, the energy balance improves with the method. The proposed ATLBO algorithm overrides any proposed other algorithm, as shown by comparison with PSO, base TLBO, Backtrackingsearch algorithm (BSA) and cuckoo search algorithms, etc. (CSA).

An adept approach to ascertain and elude probable social bots attacks on twitter and twitch employing machine learning approach
There has been a tremendous increase in the popularity of social media such as blogs, Instagram, twitter, online websites etc. The increasing utilization of these platforms have enabled the users to share information on a regular basis and also publicize social events. Nevertheless, most of the multimedia events are filled with social bots which raise concerns on the authenticity of the information shared in these events. With the increasing advancements of social bots, the complexity of detecting and fact-checking is also increasing. This is mainly due to the similarity between authorized users and social bots. Several researchers have introduced different models for detecting social bots and fact checking. However, these models suffer from various challenges. In most of the cases, these bots become indistinguishable from existing users and it is challenging to extract relevant attributes of the bots. In addition, it is also challenging to collect large scale data and label them for training the bot detection models. The performance of existing traditional classifiers used for bot detection processes is not satisfactory. This paper presents: A machine learning based adaptive fuzzy neuro model integrated with a hist gradient boosting (HGB) classifier for identifying the persisting pattern of social bots for fake news detection. And Harris Hawk optimization with Bi-LSTM for social bot prediction. Results validate the efficacy of the HGB classifier which achieves a phenomenal accuracy of 95.64 % for twitter bot and 98.98 % for twitch bot dataset. 2023 -
An Adoptable Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Analysis to Select a Best Hair Mask Product-Extended Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment Method
Hair masks (HMs) act as one of the solutions for most of the hair problems like dandruff, frizziness, breakage, premature- greying and so on. Due to its various benefits, HM products are acquiring more popularity among the individuals. As there are different varieties of HM products available in the market, the confusion arises in choosing a HM which suits the individuals hair profile and causes less side effects. Here, we have employed multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) combined with fuzzy set theory to obtain better results. We used the extended Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS) method based on trapezoidal interval type-2 fuzzy set (TIT2FS) in this research paper to handle vagueness and complexity in real-world problems. For determining the objective weights of the criteria, we used the entropy method of weight finding. An example of selecting a hair mask product (HMP) among four alternatives based on five criteria is provided to illustrate the applicability of the proposed method. In comparison to other MCDM methods, the approach yielded more practical results. By doing a sensitive study, the methods stability is also assessed. 2021, The Author(s). -
An Advanced and Ideal Method for Tumor Detection and Classification from MRI Image Using Gamma Distribution and Support Vector Machine
As indicated by a measurable report distributed by the registry of central brain tumor at United States (CBTRUS), roughly 59,550 individuals were recently diagnosed to have essential benign and essential harmful brain tumors in 2017. Besides, in excess of 91,000 individuals, in the United States alone, were living with an essential harmful cerebrum tumor and 367,000 were living with an essential kind brain tumor. The task of detecting the position of the tumor in the body of the patient is the starting point for a medical treatment in the diagnosis process. The main aim of this study is to design a computer system, which is able to detect the tumor presence in the digital images of the brain in the patient and to accurately define its borderline. In this proposed model, gamma distribution method is used for training, testing, and for the feature extraction process, while SVM, support vector machine is used for the classification process. Most of the algorithms find it difficult to segment the tumors that were present in the edges. But with the help of gamma distribution along with the use of edge analysis, it is easier to identify those tumor areas that are present in the edges, thus making it easier for the preprocessing process. Gamma distribution also provides us with high accuracy, and it can also point the exact location of the tumor than compared to other algorithms. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -

An Adversarial-Resilient Multi-Agent AI Framework for Autonomous Robotic Warfare Defense
Next-generation AI-enabled defense is essential to deter enemy drones, swarms, and autonomous vehicles in contested and deceptive environments, with modern battlefields becoming increasingly dependent on autonomous robot platforms. To discover and dissect and eliminate hostile autonomous threats in real-time, this study presents an integrated Adversarial-Resilient Swarm Defense AI Framework (AR-SDAI) with a Spatio-Temporal Transformer, a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning Countermeasure Module, and a Hybrid Graph Attention Network. To identify hidden or counterfeit threats and improve defense against enemy attacks, the system begins with applying a Transformer-based situational awareness model to merge multi-sensor battlefield data to fuse. Autonomous defense drones are then controlled by a multi-agent reinforcement learning framework to perform actions of dynamic electronic jamming and optimal interception maneuvers in a swarm environment. Finally, the system can find unusual patterns and create human-understandable counter-strategies for human-in-the-loop control with the help of a graph-based explainability layer that models the interactions of adversary swarms as dynamic graphs. Compared to traditional rule-based and CNN-RNN baselines using experiments on a simulated Red-Blue drone warfare test benchmark, the suggested AR-SDAI is better by 23% in threat detection accuracy, 31% in swarm interception success rate, and 19% in response latency. With its provision of robust, explainable, and flexible AI capability for next-generation robotic warfare settings, the paper in general enhances the state of autonomous defense operations. 2026 Saurav Mallik, Sandeep Kumar Mathivanan, Basu Dev Shivahare. -

An AI Approach to Pose-based Sports Activity Classification
Artificial intelligence systems have permeated into all spheres of our life-impacting everything from our food habits to our sleep patterns. One untouched area where such intelligent systems are still in their infancy is sports. There has not been enough indulgence of AI techniques in sports, and most of the works are carried on manually by coaching staff and human appointees. We believe that intelligent systems can make coaching staff's work easier and produce findings that the human eye can often overlook. Here, we have proposed an intelligent system to analyze the beautiful game of tennis. With the use of computer vision architecture Detectron2 and activity-based pose estimation and subsequent classification, it can identify an action from a tennis shot (activity). It can produce a performance score for the player based on pose and movement like forehand and backhand. It can also be used to understand and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the player. The proposed approach provides a piece of valuable information for a player's performance and activity detection to be used for better coaching. The study achieves a classification accuracy of 98.60% and outperforms other SOTA CNN models. 2021 IEEE -
An AI-Based Forensic Model for Online Social Networks
With the growth of social media usage, social media crimes are also creeping sprightly. Investigation of such crimes involves the thorough examination of data like user, activity, network, and content. Although investigating social media looks quite straight forward process, it is always challenging for the investigators due to the complex process involved in it. Due to the immense growth of social media content, manual processing of data for investigation is not possible. Most of the works from this area provide an automatic model or semi-automated, and much of the contributions lacks the logical reasoning and explainability of the evidence extracted. Searching techniques like entity-based search and explainable AI add value to the quick retrieval within appropriate scope and explain the results to the court of law. This paper provides a model by adding these new techniques to the basic forensic process. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -
An AI-Driven Framework for Computational Literary Analysis: Bridging English Literature and Technology
Artificial Intelligence is emerging to be significantly used in the field of digital humanities, yet the focus of achieving interpretability and predictive level of performance simultaneously in the field of literary analysis is challenging. This paper highlights the study of a newly proposed effective model that is the Interpretable and Pedagogical Artificial Intelligence Framework (IPAF), a novel model that is designed for the analysis of poetry, prose and drama, while suitable outputs are provided by the model that are explainable in the field of education and literature research. The traditional models, such as the Random Forest, XG Boost and the Light BGM model, were used as base learners and have been integrated into the IPAF model by using Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) and the BERT embedding towards feature-level representations. The evaluation of this framework is carried out by utilising standard levels of classification metrics such as precision, accuracy level, F1 score and the SHAP-based explainability, which is applied for identifying the significant features of text that are influencing predictions. The results show that the IPAF model significantly outperforms the existing baseline models, by achieving a model with high accuracy, stability and robustness, that provides actionable insights towards educators and literary researchers. The interpretability of the framework allows users towards linking the computational outputs of the model alongside stylistic and theme-based patterns, by bridging the need for qualitative analysis along critical understanding of the literature. The future scope of the work extends the IPAF model to explore multi-modal levels of literary analysis by integrating data for audio, text and image together for digital archives for the further enhancement of cross-genre interpretation and applications of pedagogy. 2025 IEEE. -

An algorithm for IoT based vehicle verification system using RFID
The verification of vehicle documents is an important role of transport department which is rising day by day due to the mass registration of the vehicles. An automated vehicle verification system can improve the efficiency of this process. In this paper, we propose an IOT based vehicle verification system using RFID technology. As a result, the vehicle checking which is done now manually can be replaced by automation. There is a loss of a significant amount of time when the normal vehicle checking is done manually. The proposed system will make this process automated. The present verification process is using inductive loops that are placed in a roadbed for detecting vehicles as they pass through the loop of the magnetic field. Similarly, the sensing devices spread along the road can detect passing vehicles through the Bluetooth mechanism. The fixed audio detection devices that can be used to identify the type of vehicles on the road. Other measurements are fixed cameras installed in specific points of roads for categorising the vehicles. But all these mechanisms cannot verify the documents and certificates of the vehicles. In our work, we have suggested an algorithm using RFID technology to automate the documentation verification process of the vehicles like Pollution, Insurance, Rc book etc with the help of RFID reader placed at road checking areas. This documents will be updated by the motor vehicle department at specific periods. Copyright 2019 Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science. All rights reserved.
