A Posthuman Analysis of Human - Machine Relationship in Select American Science Fiction Films
The research A Posthuman Analysis of Human Machine Relationship in Select American Science Fiction Films attempts to foreground the emerging posthuman scenario brought about by the explosion of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in contemporary life by analysing the posthuman representations achieved by depicting AI characters and their relationship with humans in the select American science fiction films. The primary texts for the study are Stephen Spielberg s AI: Artificial Intelligence (2001), Spike Jonze s Her (2013), Mathew Leutwyler s Uncanny (2015), and Drake Doremus Zoe (2018). The research analyses the posthuman newlinerepresentations in the select films using the methodological framework of philosophical posthumanism of Francesca Ferrando with its constituent elements of post-humanism, post-anthropocentrism, and post-dualism. The term posthuman in philosophical posthumanism refers to the critique of the notion of human preserved by the Western humanistic traditions. The three constitutive elements of philosophical posthumanism, namely, post-humanism, postanthropocentrism, and post-dualism, offer a revisit of the notion of human propagated by Western humanistic traditions and offer a renewed worldview of being human in the contemporary technocentric society where nonhuman agency is being widely newlinerecognized. From an epistemological perspective, this research adds to the evolving posthuman discussions, providing a new dimension to what it means to be a human and challenging the age-old assumptions about the human condition. -
A Potential Review on Self-healing Material Bacterial Concrete Methods and Its Benefits
Building plays an important role for survival of human being in a safe place to live and store basic requirements. The building can be constructed for any purpose and the architecture of each building (official, residential) differs according to the plan. Beyond the plan for a building, it is also significant in designing plans for the construction of bridges, dams, canals, etc. In all the construction, the key goal is the strength of a building which completely depends on the materials that are chosen for each work. Hence, it is essential to prefer high quality materials for the construction of a building and the major materials are such as cement, concrete, steel, bricks, and sand. Among these materials, the concrete is often used for construction which enables to harden the building by combining cement, sand, and water. The concrete looks like a paste that reinforce to prolong life of the building. In this paper, we discuss a review on the use of bacteria in concrete that has the ability of self-healing cracks in the building. The procedural process behind the activation and reaction of bacteria into concrete is studied with the benefits of this process. This bacterial concrete usage assures to enhance the property of durability and but still it is yet to be introduced in the industries. Hereby, we review the recent research works undergone in concrete using bacteria. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. -

A Pre-trained YOLO-v5 model and an Image Subtraction Approach for Printed Circuit Board Defect Detection
Almost every electronic product used regularly contains printed circuit boards, which in addition to being used for business purposes are also used for security applications. Manual visual inspection of anomalies and faults in circuit boards during manufacture and usage is extremely challenging. Due to a shortage of training data and the uncertainty of new abnormalities, identifying undiscovered flaws continues to be complicated. The YOLO-v5 technique on a customized PCB dataset is used in the study to incorporate computer vision to detect six potential PCB defects. The algorithm is designed to be feasible, deliver precise findings, and operate at a considerable pace to be effective. A technique of image subtraction is also implemented to detect flaws in printed circuit boards. The structural similarity index, a perception-based method, gauges how similar non-defective and defective PCB images are to one another. 2023 IEEE. -
A Precise Computational Method for Hippocampus Segmentation from MRI of Brain to Assist Physicians in the Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease
Hippocampus segmentation on magnetic resonance imaging is more significant for diagnosis, treatment and analyzing of neuropsychiatric disorders. Automatic segmentation is an active research field. Previous state-of-the-art hippocampus segmentation methods train their methods on healthy or Alzheimer's disease patients from public datasets. It arises the question whether these methods are capable for recognizing the hippocampus in a different domain. Therefore, this study proposes a precise computational method for hippocampus segmentation from MRI of brain to assist physicians in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (HCS-MRI-DAD-LBP). Initially, the input images are pre-processed by Trimmed mean filter for image quality enhancement. Then the pre-processed images are given to ROI detection, ROI detection utilizes Weber's law which determines the luminance factor of the image. In the region extraction process, Chan-Vese active contour model (ACM) and level sets are used (UACM). Finally, local binary pattern (LBP) is utilized to remove the erroneous pixel that maximizes the segmentation accuracy. The proposed model is implemented in MATLAB, and its performance is analyzed with performance metrics, like precision, recall, mean, variance, standard deviation and disc similarity coefficient. The proposed HCS-MRI-DAD-LBP method attains in OASIS dataset provides high disc similarity coefficient of 12.64%, 10.11% and 1.03% compared with the existing methods, like HCS-DAS-MLT, HCS-DAS-RNN and HCS-DAS-GMM and in ADNI dataset provides high precision of 20%, 9.09% and 1.05% compared with existing methods like HCS-MRI-DAD-CNN-ADNI, HCS-MRI-DAD-MCNN-ADNI and HCS-MRI-DAD-CNN-RNN-ADNI, respectively. 2022 World Scientific Publishing Europe Ltd. -

A prediction technique for heart disease based on long short term memory recurrent neural network
In recent years, heart disease is one of the leading cause of death for both women and men. So, heart disease prediction is considered as a significant part in the clinical data analysis. Standard data mining techniques like Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naive Bayes and other machine learning techniques used in the earlier research for heart disease prediction. These methods are not sufficient for effective heart disease prediction due to insufficient test data. In this research, Bi-directional Long Short Term Memory with Conditional Random Field (BiLSTM-CRF) has been proposed to increase the efficiency of heart disease prediction. The input medical data were analyzed in a bidirectional manner for effective analysis, and CRF provided the linear relationship between the features. The BiLSTMCRF method has been tested on the Cleveland dataset to analyze the performance and compared with existing methods. The results showed that the proposed BiLSTM-CRF outperformed the existing methods in heart disease prediction. The average accuracy of the proposed BiLSTM-CRF is 90.04%, which is higher than the existing methods. 2020 by the authors. -
A Predictive Framework for Sustainable Human Resource Management Using tNPS-Driven Machine Learning Models
This study proposes a predictive framework that integrates machine learning techniques with Transactional Net Promoter Score (tNPS) data to enhance sustainable Human Resource management. A synthetically generated dataset, simulating real-world employee feedback across divisions and departments, was used to classify employee performance and engagement levels. Six machine learning models such as XGBoost, TabNet, Random Forest, Support Vector Machines, K-Nearest Neighbors, and Neural Architecture Search were applied to predict high-performing and at-risk employees. XGBoost achieved the highest accuracy and robustness across key performance metrics, including precision, recall, and F1-score. The findings demonstrate the potential of combining real-time sentiment data with predictive analytics to support proactive HR strategies. By enabling early intervention, data-driven workforce planning, and continuous performance monitoring, the proposed framework contributes to long-term employee satisfaction, talent retention, and organizational resilience, aligning with sustainable development goals in human capital management. 2025 by the authors. -

A Predictive Modelling of Factors Influencing Job Satisfaction Through a CNN-BiGRU Algorithm
The fields of humanities, psychology, and sociology are where the word 'job satisfaction' originated. According to psychology, it is a condition in which a worker experiences his circumstances emotionally and responds by experiencing either pleasure or suffering. It is regarded as a variable in various sociological categories pertaining to how each employee assesses and thinks about his work. Because a satisfied employee contributes to and builds upon an organization's success, job satisfaction is intimately tied to an employee's performance and the quality of the work they do. As a result, job satisfaction directly correlates to an organization's success. The proposed strategy incorporates data preprocessing, feature selection, and model training. The missing value is a common feature of data preparation. Feature selection is chosen using the ANOVA F-Test Filter, the Chi-Square Filter, and the full Data Set Construction procedure. The model's efficacy can be evaluated with the help of CNN-BiGRU. The proposed technique is compared to two more models: BiGRU and CNN. It has been shown that our proposed technique outperforms two other models. 2023 IEEE. -

A primary study on the degradation of low-density polyethylene treated with select oxidizing agents and starch
Polyethylene has become an integral part of our contemporary lives. The neoteric versatile nature of polyethylene is used in constructing various applications. Out of the plastic waste discarded, 60% of the plastic waste enters landfills. The polyethylene discarded in the soil and water on exposure to the environment forms macroplastics (>2.5 cm), mesoplastics (5 mm-2.5 cm) and microplastics (<5 mm). Microplastics in the water and soil are observed to have lethal and ecotoxicological effects on aquatic and terrestrial organisms. They enter the food chain and permeate into the food that one eats. In order to address this impending concern, the present study aimed to treat plastics to form a degradable, safe and earthy material. The dissolved polyethylene was treated with starch and was made to react with oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, nitric acid and acetic acid to lower its inert ability to withstand its degradation. The effect of starch and oxidizing agents on dissolved low density polyethylene was subsequently analysed. The analysis of treated polyethylene showed a decrease in its crystallinity percentage by 6.19 and an increase in its functional groups on reaction with solvent trichloroethylene made to react with starch and oxidizing agents. In the present research, tests were conducted to obtain the various methods that can be utilized to reverse the inert ability of polyethylene. The prevailing recycling model that uses antioxidation techniques is counterproductive since it was found that such techniques appeared to make the polyethylene more resistant to further degradation. In this study, the polyethylene was dissolved in the solvents, such as xylene and trichloroethylene, to make the polyethylene more susceptible to reactants and hence a viable model for treating polyethylene. : Author (s).

A Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning Protocol for Secure Analytics of IoT Sensor Data Using Homomorphic Encryption
The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has led to massive amounts of sensitive data generation, making data security a paramount concern. Existing methods often struggle with protecting heterogeneous IoT data efficiently, particularly during model training and communication. In this work, we propose a federated learning framework integrated with secure encryption mechanisms to safeguard IoT data during model training and aggregation. Each client device trains a local model using its own sensor data, encrypts the model parameters, and sends them to a server. The server aggregates the encrypted models and sends back the global model for decryption by the clients, ensuring data privacy throughout the process. The proposed framework reduces the unauthorized access risks and also the experimental results demonstrate that the model results in an accuracy of 92% during prediction tasks. The system's encryption overhead was minimal, with only a 7.5% increase in computation time compared to unencrypted federated learning methods. Future work will focus on optimizing the encryption techniques for resource-constrained IoT devices and exploring adaptive security mechanisms powered by machine learning to detect emerging threats dynamically.

A privatised approach in enhanced spam filtering techniques using TSAS over cloud networks
Major problem over cloud networks is the effect of malicious code that protrudes its own activity without intend of network user in resource sharing. One such activity is the spam-filtering techniques which assumes the data with training and testing sets and also rely on fundamental classification through distribution. A privatised spam filtering approach is a classic problem which automatically recognises user context and incoming mail information relevance. To filter mail contents learning based methods, probabilistic based method trying to improve their accuracy but they cannot attain an improvement in identifying suspicious contents and also in segregating legitimate mail entries. Here a novel representation of structured abstraction scheme (SAS) used to generate abstraction in e-mail process using HTML tag content in e-mail and its algorithm for filtering such process of spam filtering is depicted. In this SAS methodology near duplicate matching process with HTML tag ordering will be processed and newly assigned position ordering were deliberated. The experimental setup shows that there will be a great improvement while filtering spam in accuracy of e-mail content while sharing in cloud networks. Copyright 2022 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd. -
A probabilistic inference algorithm for early detection of age related macular degeneration
Age Related Macular Degeneration or ARMD is a retinal disorder that causes blindness over people of older age group. ARMD is associated with age and is a leading cause of blindness around the world. There is no specific medicine to fully cure ARMD but its development can be controlled by regular exercises and a healthy lifestyle if it is detected early. With a rising population of old age group of people, it becomes important to detect ARMD as early as possible in order to contain its development further. This research attempts to develop an algorithm based on probabilistic inference through Bayesian Network by analyzing large datasets collected from previous cases where datasets include elements of risk factors that could cause ARMD along with eye images. Unlike most of the approaches in detecting ARMD this work not only analyses eye images but also includes analysis of various factors causing the disorder. To include the study and analysis of the presence of factors causing ARMD is sensible because those factors are good indicators when the need is an early detection. 2020, Engg Journals Publications.
