Artificial intelligence: A new model for online proctoring in education
As a result of technological advancements, society is becoming increasingly computerized. Massive open online courses and other forms of remote instruction continue to grow in popularity and reach. COVID-19's global impact has boosted the demand for similar courses by a factor of ten. The ability to successfully assign distant online examinations is a crucial limiting factor in this next stage of education's adaptability. Human proctoring is now the most frequent method of evaluation, which involves either forcing test takers to visit an examination centre or watching them visually and audibly throughout tests via a webcam. However, such approaches are time-consuming and expensive. In this paper, we provide a multimedia solution for semi-automated proctoring that does not require any extra gear other than the student's computer's webcam and microphone. The system continuously monitors and analyses the user based on gaze detection, lip movement, the number of individuals in the room, and mobile phone detection, and captures audio in real time through the microphone and transforms it to text for assessment using speech recognition. Access the words gathered by speech recognition and match them for keywords with the questions being asked for higher accuracy using Natural Language Processing. If any inconsistencies are discovered, they are reported to the proctor, who can investigate and take appropriate action. Extensive experimental findings illustrate the correctness, resilience, and efficiency of our online exam proctoring system, as well as how it allows a single proctor to simultaneously monitor several test takers. 2023 Author(s). -

Artificial Neural Network with Firefly Algorithm-Based Collaborative Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks
Recent advances in Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN) have elevated them to the status of a critical instrument for overcoming spectrum limits and achieving severe future wireless communication requirements. Collaborative spectrum sensing is presented for efficient channel selection because spectrum sensing is an essential part of CRNs. This study presents an innovative cooperative spectrum sensing (CSS) model that is built on the Firefly Algorithm (FA), as well as machine learning artificial neural networks (ANN). This system makes use of user grouping strategies to improve detection performance dramatically while lowering collaboration costs. Cooperative sensing wasn't used until after cognitive radio users had been correctly identified using energy data samples and an ANN model. Cooperative sensing strategies produce a user base that is either secure, requires less effort, or is faultless. The suggested method's purpose is to choose the best transmission channel. Clustering is utilized by the suggested ANN-FA model to reduce spectrum sensing inaccuracy. The transmission channel that has the highest weight is chosen by employing the method that has been provided for computing channel weight. The proposed ANN-FA model computes channel weight based on three sets of input parameters: PU utilization, CR count, and channel capacity. Using an improved evolutionary algorithm, the key principles of the ANN-FA scheme are optimized to boost the overall efficiency of the CRN channel selection technique. This study proposes the Artificial Neural Network with Firefly Algorithm (ANN-FA) for cognitive radio networks to overcome the obstacles. This proposed work focuses primarily on sensing the optimal secondary user channel and reducing the spectrum handoff delay in wireless networks. Several benchmark functions are utilized We analyze the efficacy of this innovative strategy by evaluating its performance. The performance of ANN-FA is 22.72 percent more robust and effective than that of the other metaheuristic algorithm, according to experimental findings. The proposed ANN-FA model is simulated using the NS2 simulator, The results are evaluated in terms of average interference ratio, spectrum opportunity utilization, three metrics are measured: packet delivery ratio (PDR), end-to-end delay, and end-to-average throughput for a variety of different CRs found in the network.

Artistic Representation of Gender Nonconforming Female Bodies in Social Media: A Study of Select Indian Graphic Artists on Instagram
The study critically examines gender nonconforming female identities via their sex-ualized representations through artistic imagination on Instagram. Instagram representation becomes a political act where this visual subversion allows the queer to reclaim their non-binary identity and thus articulate their choices through their body. The digital graphic art taken under study is select images from the Instagram pages of Indian artists artwhoring, aorists, and sayartic. The research study examines the question of an ideal hegemonic femininity perpetuated by the rhetoric of Indian heteronormative patriarchal assertions. It analyses select images that defy hegemonic femininity and gender binary by embodying an amalgamation of masculinity and femininity and lesbian desire which forms an act of subversion. The methodology of critical discourse analysis is employed to study Instagram art and the critical frameworks of the fantasy female body, and the notion of hetero-patriarchal femininity. In conclusion, the study discusses the treatment of female gender non-conforming bodies, their appearance, lesbian desire, and body image. Such transgressive depiction of bodies successfully situates the female body beyond the dichotomy of masculinity and femininity. 2023 The Author(s). All rights reserved. -

Arts education, academic achievement and cognitive ability
Although art is often considered to be a means for maximizing human potential, the causes and consequences of artistic experiences are poorly understood. The present chapter reviews the relevant literature concerning the consequences of participating in the arts. It is clear that training in the arts improves performance on arts-specific tasks. For example, children who take music lessons perform better than their untrained peers on musical tasks such as perceiving musical key and harmony (Corrigall and Trainor, 2009). But training in the arts may also be associated with performance in non-arts domains. This chapter examines the possibility of four such associations, namely whether arts education is associated with academic achievement, general cognitive ability, language processing and visuospatial skills. In each case, the literature is evaluated in terms of the consistency of the findings and the evidence for claims of causation. Training in the arts and academic achievement Training in the arts is associated positively with academic achievement. For example, in a sample of Canadian high-school students, participation in musical activities in the eleventh grade predicted academic achievement in the twelfth grade (Gouzouasis, Guhn and Kishor, 2007). Other results point to similar associations between academic achievement and involvement in any type of arts-related activity. In one study that included more than 25,000 American high-school students, arts participation and school grades were recorded during the eighth, tenth and twelfth grades (Catterall, Chapleau and Iwanaga, 1999). At each point in time, students who were involved in the arts had better grades than other students. A similar positive association emerged in a meta-analysis of five correlational studies (Winner and Cooper, 2000). In a larger meta-analysis of 10 years of data from the American College Board (198898), Vaughn and Winner (2000) concluded that compared to students without arts training, students reporting any form of arts involvement (dance, drama, music and visual arts) obtained higher scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). This advantage for the arts group was evident for the verbal score, the mathematics score and the composite score. Students with drama lessons showed the strongest association, followed (in descending order) by students studying music, painting and dance. Even enrollment in theoretical classes (e.g., music or art history courses) was predictive of better SAT scores. Cambridge University Press 2014. -
AS-CL IDS: anomaly and signature-based CNN-LSTM intrusion detection system for Internet of Things
In recent years, the internet of things (IoT) has had a significant impact on our daily lives, offering various advantages for improving our quality of life. However, it is crucial to prioritize the security of IoT devices and the protection of user's personal data. Intrusion detection systems (IDS) play a critical role in maintaining data privacy and security. An IoT IDS continuously monitors network activity and identifies potential security risks or attacks targeting IoT devices. While traditional IDS solutions exist, intrusion detection heavily relies on artificial intelligence (AI). AI can greatly enhance the capabilities of IoT IDS through real-time monitoring, precise threat identification, and automatic response capabilities. It is essential to develop and utilize these technologies securely and responsibly to mitigate potential risks and safeguard user privacy. A hybrid IDS was proposed for anomaly-based and signature-based intrusions, leveraging convolutional neural network with long short-term memory (CNN-LSTM). The name of the proposed hybrid model is anomaly and signaturebased CNN-LSTM intrusion detection system (AS-CL IDS). The AS-CL IDS concentrated on two different IoT IDS detection strategies employing a combination of deep learning techniques. The model includes model training and testing as well as data preprocessing. The CIC-IDS 2018, IoT network intrusion dataset, MQTT-IoT-IDS2020, and BoTNeTIoTL01 datasets were used to train and test the AS-CL IDS. The overall performance of the proposed model was assessed using accepted assessment metrics. Despite reducing the number of characteristics, the model achieved 99.81% accuracy. Furthermore, a comparison was made between the proposed model and existing alternative models to demonstrate its productivity. As a result, the proposed model proves valuable for predicting IoT attacks. Looking ahead, the deployment strategy of the IoT IDS can anticipate the utilization of real-time datasets for future implementations. 2023 Jinsi Jose and Deepa V. Jose. -
Aspect Based Feature Extraction in Sentiment Analysis using Bi-GRU-LSTM Model
In Natural Language Processing (NLP), Sentiment Analysis (SA) is a fundamental process which predicts the sentiment expressed in sentences. In contrast to conventional sentiment analysis, Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (ABSA) employs a more nuanced approach to assess the sentiment of individual aspects or components within a document or sentence. Its objective is to identify the sentiment polarity, such as positive, neutral, or negative, associated with particular elements disclosed within a sentence. This research introduces a novel sentiment analysis technique that proves to be more efficient in sentiment analysis compared to current methods. The suggested sentiment analysis method undergoes three key phases: 1. Pre-processing 2. Extraction of aspect sentiment and 3. Sentiment analysis classification. The input text data undergoes pre-processing through the implementation of four typical text normalization techniques, which include stemming, stop word elimination, lemmatization, and tokenization. By employing these methods, the provided text data is prepared and fed into the aspect sentiment extraction phase. During the aspect sentiment extraction phase, features are obtained through a series of steps, including enhanced ATE (Aspect Term Extraction), assessment of word length, and determination of cosine similarity. By following these steps, the relevant features are extracted on the basis of aspects and sentiments involved in the text data. Further, a hybrid classification model is proposed to classify sentiments. In this work, two of the Deep Learning (DL) classifiers, Bi-directional Gated Recurrent Unit (Bi-GRU) and Long Short-Term memory (LSTM) are used in proposing a hybrid classification model which classifies the sentiments effectively and provides accurate final predicted results. Moreover, the performance of proposed sentiment analysis technique is analyzed experimentally to show its efficacy over other models. 2024 River Publishers. -
Aspect based sentiment analysis using a novel ensemble deep network
Aspect-based sentiment analysis (ABSA) is a fine-grained task in natural language processing, which aims to predict the sentiment polarity of several parts of a sentence or document. The essential aspect of sentiment polarity and global context have deep relationships that have not received enough attention. This research work design and develops a novel ensemble deep network (EDN) which comprises the various network and integrated to enhance the model performance. In the proposed work the words of the input sentence are converted into word vectors using the optimised bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) model and an optimised BERT-graph neural networks (GNN) model with convolutions is built that analyses the ABSA of the input sentence. The optimised GNN model with convolutions for context-based word representations is developed for the word-vector embedding. We propose a novel EDN for an ABSA model for optimised BERT over GNN with convolutions. The proposed ensemble deep network proposed system (EDN-PS) is evaluated with various existing techniques and results are plotted in terms of metrics for accuracy and F1-score, concluding that the proposed EDN-PS ensures better performance in comparison with the existing model. 2024, Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

Aspect based sentiment analysis using fine-tuned BERT model with deep context features
Sentiment analysis is the task of analysing, processing, inferencing and concluding the subjective texts along with sentiment. Considering the application of sentiment analysis, it is categorized into document-level, sentence-level and aspect level. In past, several researches have achieved solutions through the bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) model, however, the existing model does not understand the context of the aspect in deep, which leads to low metrics. This research work leads to the study of the aspect-based sentiment analysis presented by deep context bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (DC-BERT), main aim of the DC-BERT model is to improvise the context understating for aspects to enhance the metrics. DC-BERT model comprises fine-tuned BERT model along with a deep context features layer, which enables the model to understand the context of targeted aspects deeply. A customized feature layer is introduced to extract two distinctive features, later both features are integrated through the interaction layer. DC-BERT mode is evaluated considering the review dataset of laptops and restaurants from SemEval 2014 task 4, evaluation is carried out considering the different metrics. In comparison with the other model, DC-BERT achieves an accuracy of 84.48% and 92.86% for laptop and restaurant datasets respectively. 2024, Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science.

Assembly of discrete and oligomeric structures of organotin double-decker silsesquioxanes: Inherent stability studies
Double-decker silsesquioxane (DDSQ), a type of incompletely condensed silsesquioxane, has been used as a molecular precursor for synthesizing new organotin discrete and oligomeric compounds. The equimolar reaction between DDSQ tetrasilanol (DDSQ-4OH) and Ph2SnCl2 in the presence of triethylamine leads to obtaining discrete [Ph4Sn2O4(DDSQ)(THF)2] (1). The change of sterically bulky aryl Ph2SnCl2 precursor to linear alkyl nBu2SnCl2 led to the isolation of oligomeric [nBu4Sn2O4(DDSQ)] (2). The structures of compounds 1 and 2 have been demonstrated using single-crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. Indeed, the formation of oligomeric organotin DDSQ compound (2) was determined using GPC and MALDI-TOF mass spectroscopy. In compound 1, the geometry of the tin atom is five-coordinated trigonal bipyramidal by two phenyl groups, two Si-O from DDSQ and one tetrahydrofuran. Compound 2 contains four coordinated two peripheral tin atoms and two five-coordinated central tin atoms, in which, the fifth coordinating oxo groups in the central tin atoms create the bridge between two different DDSQ units that leads to the formation of oligomeric structure. Density functional theory calculations on organotin DDSQs infer that the obtained lattice energy for compound 1 is far higher than for the case of compound 2, which indicates that the crystal of compound 1 is better stabilized in its crystal lattice with stronger close packing via intermolecular interactions between discrete molecules with coordinated THF compared to the crystal of compound 2. The greater stability arises mainly due to the sterically bulkier phenyl groups attached to the tin centers in compound 1, which provide accessibility for accommodating the THF molecule per tin via Sn-THF bonding, while contrarily the smaller n-butyl groups aid the polymerization of the four repeating units of [SnSi4O7] or two Sn2O4(DDSQ) through ?-oxo groups. Both compounds 1 and 2 were chosen to be promising precursors for the synthesis of ceramic tin silicates. The thermolysis of 2 at 1000 C afforded the mixture of crystalline SnSiO4 and SiO2 but the same mixture was only formed by thermolysis of 1 at relatively higher temperature (1500 C), which infers that compound 1 is more stable than compound 2 that is in good synergy with theoretical lattice energy.
