Harmonizing financial systems for a greener future: Exploring sustainable finance strategies in India
description: Sustainable finance represents the next biggest transformation in the financial sector to aid the process of sustainable development. Sustainable finance comprises traditional investment which provides financial profits as well as financing the projects or investments that have social, economic and governance impact. The transition from traditional investment to sustainable finance is underway in different markets at different capacities. This study seeks to examine the performance of sustainability indices representing sustainable finance in the Indian and global markets by analysing returns. It was found that sustainable finance gained significant appreciation in the Indian market. In comparing the performance of sustainability indices in developing and developed markets, there was no development divide identified. In this path towards widespread adoption of sustainable finance, data science as a field also provides promising applications for facilitating this transformation. 2024, IGI Global.

Information extraction and text mining of Ancient Vattezhuthu characters in historical documents using image zoning
subject: Character Recognition; Image Zoning; Machine Translation; Segmentation; Vattezhuthu
description: The aim of this paper is to develop a system that involves character recognition of Brahmi, Grantha and Vattezuthu characters from palm manuscripts of historical Tamil ancient documents, analyzed the text and machine translated the present Tamil digital text format. Though many researchers have implemented various algorithms and techniques for character recognition in different languages, ancient characters conversion still poses a big challenge. Because image recognition technology has reached near-perfection when it comes to scanning English and other language text. But optical character recognition (OCR) software capable of digitizing printed Tamil text with high levels of accuracy is still elusive. Only a few people are familiar with the ancient characters and make attempts to convert them into written documents manually. The proposed system overcomes such a situation by converting all the ancient historical documents from inscriptions and palm manuscripts into Tamil digital text format. It converts the digital text format using Tamil unicode. Our algorithm comprises different stages: i) image preprocessing, ii) feature extraction, iii) character recognition and iv) digital text conversion. The first phase conversion accuracy of the Brahmi script rate of our algorithm is 91.57% using the neural network and image zoning method. The second phase of the Vattezhuthu character set is to be implemented. Conversion accuracy of Vattezhuthu is 89.75%. 2016 IEEE.

Artificial Neural Network with Firefly Algorithm-Based Collaborative Spectrum Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks
subject: Channel Selection; Cognitive radio; Improved genetic algorithm; Spectrum assignment; Spectrum Sensing
description: 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 tha…

A Neuro Fuzzy with Improved GA for Collaborative Spectrum Sensing in CRN
subject: channel selection; Cognitive radio; improved genetic algorithm; spectrum assignment; spectrum sensing
description: Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN) have recently emerged as an important solution for addressing spectrum constraint and meeting the stringent criteria of future wireless communication. Collaborative spectrum sensing is incorporated in CRNs for proper channel selection since spectrum sensing is a critical capability of CRNs. According to this viewpoint, this study introduces a new Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy logic with Improved Genetic Algorithm based Channel Selection (ANFIGA-CS) technique for collaborative spectrum sensing in CRN. The suggested methods purpose is to find the best transmission channel. To reduce spectrum sensing error, the suggested ANFIGA-CS model employs a clustering technique. The Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Logic (ANFL) technique is then used to calculate the channel weight value and the channel with the highest weight is selected for transmission. To compute the channel weight, the proposed ANFIGA-CS model uses three fuzzy input parameters: Primary User (PU) utilization, Cognitive Radio (CR) count and channel capacity. To improve the channel selection process in CRN, the rules in the ANFL scheme are optimized using an updated genetic algorithm to increase overall efficiency. The suggested ANFIGA-CS model is simulated using the NS2 simulator and the results are investigated in terms of average interference ratio, spectrum opportunity utilization, average throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) and End to End (ETE) delay in a network with a variable number of CRs. 2022, Tech Science Press.

Enhancing Prognostication in Colorectal Cancer with Integrated Machine Learning for Improved Survival Prediction
subject: Colorectal cancer; Machine learning; Personalized treatment; Prognostication; Survival outcomes
description: Machine learning methods are recently used to predict patient survival in colorectal cancer using such models as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), VGG16, and Support Vector Machines (SVM). Taking advantage of a combination of CT, MRI scan images, and clinical records with drug recommendations, the study also checks to see how these models compare for distinguishing between patients in terms of their illness course-whether they are going to get better or worse over time. The results reveal VGG16 has better accuracy than CNN, RNN and SVM; as the highest-performing model tested, it also demonstrates superior precision, recall and F1-score. The research findings also validate these proposed models as they compare favorably with existing literature. This presents a promising proposition: a new, revolutionary approach to using artificial intelligence to boost prognostic accuracy. 2025 IEEE.

subject: brain tumor; classification; feature selection; Machine learning; MRI image processing; neural network; stochastic spin model
description: Brain tumor detection is a developing defect finding task in medical imaging, as premature and early identification is a critical once for recommending early treatment. The tumor are identified by the laboratory through MRI images by finding the tumor regions. The Artificial intelligence play a vital role for finding, analyzing, the image data to attain the target results in medical image using various learning methodologies. Most of the existing system failed to find the find the feature dimension leads poor accuracy for identifying tumor regions due to low precision, recall rate, lower intensity in image coverage region. To resolve this problem, to propose an Optimal Support Scaling Vector Based Feature Selection (OSSCV) brain tumor identification using Stochastic Spin-Glass Model Classification (SSGM). Initially the preprocessing is done by bilateral filter and segmentation is applied by suing Active Region Slice Window Segmentation (ARSWS). To separate the tumor entity feature projection using Histogram color quantization and the features process are carried by Optimal Support Scaling Vector Based Feature Selection (OSSCV). The selected features get trained using Stochastic Spin-Glass Model Classification (SSGM) to find the tumor region. The proposed system outperforms traditional machine learning methods in brain tumor detection. Finally proposed system of Stochastic Spin-Glass Model (SSGM) performance of recall is 95.5%, the performance of F1-score is 96.1% and the performance of the 96.5%. The proposed approach has the potential to assist radiologists in diagnosing brain tumors more accurately and efficiently, leading to improved patient outcomes. 2024, Ismail Saritas.

Value Addition for Technology Start-Ups Through Physical Co-Location
subject: Co-location; Coworking; Opportunity; Start-up life cycle; Value addition; Vicarious learning
description: Numerous economic theories, knowledge, social, and communication theories have extensively explored the phenomenon of physical co-location in various contexts. However, limited scholarly attention has been given to co-location in emerging contexts such as co-working spaces, predominantly used by start-ups. One of the critical questions examined is how co-location adds value to technology start-ups in the early and growth stages of their development. We chose a premium coworking space in Bangalore, Indias start-up capital, as the studys research setting during January March 2020. The qualitative research employed semi-structured interviews to explore the phenomenon. Our findings revealed that start-ups actively used co-located resources to explore, experiment, and validate new business ideas in the early stage. As they transitioned into the growth phase, they exploited co-located industry networks to expand into new markets. They also learned vicariously from other co-located resources and used them to solve complex problems and refined their processes and routines. As start-ups begin to grow and expand, co-location infrastructure-related costs are not justifiable, operations are less secure, and the meta culture of the co-located environment is in conflict with the firms operating culture. The results of this study have the potential to be significant for technology start-ups that are exploring new ways of working and addressing uncertainties during the early and growth stages of their development. 2021, Associated Management Consultants Pvt.

Physical Co-location: an intersection of problem-solving and vicarious learning
subject: Co-location; Emergent learning; problem-solving; vicarious learning; Revans' praxeology
description: Scholars have examined Revans' problem-solving praxeology in many contexts but have not fully explored the concept in the case of physical co-location. Hence, we focussed on investigating Revans' conceptualisation in a co-located context by paying particular attention to the different forms of learning' that emerged from it. The research setting for this study involved two coworking spaces in Bangalore, India, whose constituents were co-located start-ups and established enterprises. Held from January to March 2020, the study involved conducting exploratory, semi-structured interviews with twelve firms. The findings suggested that in a co-located environment, a) firms learnt vicariously' from a rich, external knowledge base during the enquiry-led Alpha phase b) firms learnt experientially', through learning by doing and reflecting in the implementation-focussed Beta phase c) firms learnt through the process of emergence that resulted from personal reflection and team interaction, in the revelatory Gamma phase. This study lends a novel direction in acknowledging that vicarious learning, that is, learning through the experience of others, serves as a starting point for problem-solving in a co-located context. We demonstrate that firms gain familiarity with the problem through vicarious sources, that is, from those experienced co-located firms who had journeyed on a similar path. 2021 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.

subject: Accuracy; Feature Extraction; Hyperparameter Tuning; Image Preprocessing; Normalization; Precision; Recall; Resizing; Transfer Learning on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)
description: Wheat disease identification is essential for agricultural output and food security. Traditional diagnostic approaches are slow, ineffective, and need expert assistance, restricting their ability to grow in agriculture. Suggested innovative diagnostic method uses transfer learning on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to effectively identify and classify wheat leaf diseases. To increase model predictions, high-quality image datasets from open-access platforms are normalised, resized, and augmented. The proposed CNN model performed best with 98.90% accuracy, 98.87% precision, and 98.80% recall. Transfer learning improved model performance by recycling knowledge from pre-trained CNN architectures, reducing training time and enhancing feature extraction. The results show improved precision as well as strength over standard methods and before. This technology helps farmers and agricultural professionals make timely disease management and crop management decisions. To improve disease recognition, future study may use a wider dataset range and other CNN designs. 2025 IEEE.

Optimizing Interpretability in Recommender Systems using a Hybrid Model based on Matrix Factorization and Neural Networks
subject: Deep Learning; Hybrid Model; Interpretability; Matrix Factorization; Neural Networks; Recommender Systems
description: Recommender systems play a crucial role in the direction of user choices in e-commerce, media, and online services, clearly, there is a trade-off between predictive accuracy and interpretability. In this paper, a new hybrid model that combines Matrix Factorization and a Neural Network framework to maximize the performance of recommendation as well as explainability has been suggested. The model uses Latent factor representation of Matrix Factorization to provide the global user item interactions, and the Neural Network component finds nonlinear interaction and contextual patterns in the data. The hybrid architecture is trained and tested on a Kaggle dataset of 100,000 user-item interactions with several numerical and categorical characteristics. It compares to standalone methods in that the system is more superior with an accuracy of 94.5, F1-score of 0.945, mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.087 and root mean squared error (RMSE) of 0.112. It is proven by computational analysis to have efficient training convergence and low inference latency, allowing real-time recommendations on Google Colab. The proposed solution bridges the gap between performance and transparency since it can be applied and is credible by being predictive and understandable at the same time. The study has implications in intelligent, explainable and scalable recommenders systems in diverse areas of application. 2025 IEEE.

subject: ASPP; Convolutional neural network; EffUnet; Glaucoma detection; Tensor tubal PCA
description: Main problem in current research area focused on generating automatic AI technique to detect bio medical images by slimming the dataset. Reducing the original dataset with actual unwanted noises can accelerate new data which helps to detect diseases with high accuracy. Highest level of accuracy can be achieved only by ensuring accuracy at each level of processing steps. Dataset slimming or reduction is NP hard problems due its resembling variants. In this research work we ensure high accuracy in two phases. In phase one feature selection using Normalized Tensor Tubal PCA (NTT-PCA) method is used. This method is based on tensor with single value decomposition (SVD) for accurate dimensionality reduction problems. The dimensionality reduced output from phase one is further processed for accurate classification in phase two. The classification of affected images is detected using ASPP EffUnet. The atrous spatial pyramid pooling (ASPP) with efficient convolutional block in Unet is combined to provide ASPP EffUnet CNN architecture for accurate classification. This two phase model is designed and implemented on benchmark datasets of glaucoma detection. It is processed efficiently by exploiting fundus image in the dataset. We propose novel AI techniques for segmenting the eye discs using EffUnet and perform classification using ASPP-EffUnet techniques. Highest accuracy is achieved by NTT-PCA dimensionality reduction process and ASPP-EffUnet based classification which detects the boundaries of eye cup and optical discs very curiously. Our resulting algorithm NTT-PCA with ASPP-EffUnet for dimensionality reduction and classification process which is optimized for reducing computational complexity with existing detection algorithms like PCA-LA-SVM,PCA-ResNet ASPP Unet. We choose benchmark datasets ORIGA for our experimental analysis. The crucial areas in clinical setup are examined and implemented successfully. The prediction and classification accuracy of proposed technique is…

subject: Data transition; End-to-end delay; Energy consumption; Flexibility; Hidden Markov model; Intrusion detection; Link optimization; Packet delivery ratio; Privacy; Searching; Security; Throughput
description: Ad hoc mobile cloud computing networks are affected by various issues, like delay, energy consumption, flexibility, infrastructure, network lifetime, security, stability, data transition, and link accomplishment. Given the issues above, route failure is prevalent in ad hoc mobile cloud computing networks, which increases energy consumption and delay and reduces stability. These issues may affect several interconnected nodes in an ad hoc mobile cloud computing network. To address these weaknesses, which raise many concerns about privacy and security, this study formulated clustering-based storage and search optimization approaches using cross-layer analysis. The proposed approaches were formed by cross-layer analysis based on intrusion detection methods. First, the clustering process based on storage and search optimization was formulated for clustering and route maintenance in ad hoc mobile cloud computing networks. Moreover, delay, energy consumption, network lifetime, and link accomplishment are highly addressed by the proposed algorithm. The hidden Markov model is used to maintain the data transition and distributions in the network. Every data communication network, like ad hoc mobile cloud computing, faces security and confidentiality issues. However, the main security issues in this article are addressed using the storage and search optimization approach. Hence, the new algorithm developed helps detect intruders through intelligent cross layer analysis with the Markov model. The proposed model was simulated in Network Simulator 3, and the outcomes were compared with those of prevailing methods for evaluating parameters, like accuracy, end-to-end delay, energy consumption, network lifetime, packet delivery ratio, and throughput. 2022 Tech Science Press.

subject: Biogeography-based optimization; Computer vision; Convolutional neural network; Covid-19; Deep learning
description: The COVID-19 pandemic has created a major challenge for countries all over the world and has placed tremendous pressure on their public health care services. An early diagnosis of COVID-19 may reduce the impact of the coronavirus. To achieve this objective, modern computation methods, such as deep learning, may be applied. In this study, a computational model involving deep learning and biogeography-based optimization (BBO) for early detection and management of COVID-19 is introduced. Specifically, BBO is used for the layer selection process in the proposed convolutional neural network (CNN). The computational model accepts images, such as CT scans, X-rays, positron emission tomography, lung ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging, as inputs. In the comparative analysis, the proposed deep learning model CNN is compared with other existing models, namely, VGG16, InceptionV3, ResNet50, and MobileNet. In the fitness function formation, classification accuracy is considered to enhance the prediction capability of the proposed model. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms InceptionV3 and ResNet50. 2022 Tech Science Press. All rights reserved.
