Analysis of Workloads for Cloud Services
Capturing best quality datasets for a study is the first evidence for better outcomes of research. If the analysis are based on such datasets, then the metrics, the characteristics and few factors determines proof point for well proven theories. Hence it is obvious that we rely on the best possible ways to arrive at such data acquiring sources. It can be either based on historical techniques or from the innovations in application of it to industry. This paper introduces a mapping framework for analyzing, and characterizing data previously used by research community and how they are made to fit for Cloud systems, i.e. using 'workloads' and 'datasets' as the 'refined definitions'. It was contributed in the past two decades within the scientific community setting their own workflow analysis mechanisms. The framework thus is validated by acquiring a sample workload per layer of cloud. The sources are form the literature that are available from existing scientific theories. These workloads are then experimented against the three tiers of the cloud computing ie., IaaS(Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS(Platform as a Service), & SaaS(Software as a Service). The selected data is analyzed by the authors for an offline model presented here based on the Machine Learning tool-kits. There are future studies planned for and to be experimented in a cloud auto scaled environment with online model as well. 2022 IEEE. -

DKMI: Diversification ofWeb Image Search Using Knowledge Centric Machine Intelligence
Web Image Recommendation is quite important in the present-day owing to the large scale of the multimedia content on the World Wide Web (WWW) specifically images. Recommendation of the images that are highly pertinent to the query with diversified yet relevant query results is a challenge. In this paper the DKMI framework for web image recommendation has been proposed which is mainly focused on ontology alignment and knowledge pool derivation using standard crowd-sourced knowledge stores like Wikipedia and DBpedia. Apart from this the DKMI model encompasses differential classification of the same dataset using the GRU and SVM, which are two distinct differential classifiers at two different levels. GRU being a Deep Learning classifier and the SVM being a Machine Learning classifier, enhances the heterogeneity and diversity in the results. Semantic similarity computation using Cosine Similarity, PMI and SOC-PMI at several phases ensures strong relevance computation in the model. The DKMI model yields overall Precision of 97.62% with an accuracy of 98.36% along with the lowest FDR score of 0.03 and is much better than the other models that are considered to be the baseline models. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. -

Pneumonia Detection using Ensemble Transfer Learning
Pneumonia is among the most common illnesses and causes to death among the young children worldwide. It is more serious in under-developed countries as it is hard to diagnose due to the absence of specialists. Chest X-ray images have essentially been utilized in the diagnosis of this disease. Examining chest X-rays is a difficult task, even for an experienced radiologist. Information Technology, especially Artificial Intelligence, have started contributing to accurate diagnosis of pneumonia from chest X-ray images. In this work, we used deep learning, transfer learning, and ensemble voting to increase the accuracy of pneumonia detection. The models utilized are VGG16, MobileNetV2, and InceptionV3, all pre-trained on ImageNet, and used the Kaggle RSNA CXR image dataset. The results from these models are ensembled using the weighted average ensemble approach to achieve better accuracy and obtained 98.63% test accuracy. The results are promising, and the proposed model can assist doctors in detecting pneumonia quickly and accurately from Chest X-Ray. 2022 IEEE. -
Real-time Litter Recognition Using Improved YOLOv4 Tiny Algorithm
Littered roads have become a familiar sight in India. The main reason is the increasing population and inefficient waste disposal system. Since garbage collectors cannot pick litter in all the places, there is a need for an efficient way to detect it. Hence, a machine learning-based object detection model is used. In this, we have applied an improved YOLOv4-Tiny algorithm to detect the garbage, classify it and make the detection process easier on custom datasets. We have improved the algorithm in terms of the object prediction time, this is done by replacing a max pooling layer with one of two layers present in a fully connected layer. When an input is given, the algorithm detects the litter in the image with a bounding box around it along with the label and confidence score. The proposed model reduces the prediction time by 0.517 milliseconds less than the original algorithm employed which concludes that the object is predicted faster. 2022 IEEE. -
A Performance Investigations of Modular Multilevel Inverter with Reduced Switch Count
A multilevel inverter is a special variant of converter for dc-Ac conversion in medium and high voltage and power requirements. In this paper, a novel configuration with fewer switches needed has been developed for the staircase output voltage levels. Two direct current voltage sources and eight transistors are required to synthesize five levels across the load using the conventional topology. The modular topology has two dc voltage sources, and six switches with a five-level output. Using the optimum multi-carrier pulse width modulation approach, the voltage quality is enhanced and total harmonic distortion is reduced. Furthermore, the viability of the proposed topology in contrast to the conventional cascaded H-bridged multilevel inverter with five levels is established by presenting comparable results showing reduced power losses with varied modulation indexes and increased efficiency. The simulation analysis has been carried out using the MATLAB/SIMULINK tool. 2022 IEEE. -
Comparative Study Analysis on News Articles Categorization using LSA and NMF Approaches
Due to exponentially growing news articles every day, most of their important data goes unnoticed. It is important to come up with the ability to automatically analyse these articles and segregate them based on the context and related to their particular domain. This paper applies topic modelling which is one of the most growing unsupervised machine learning fields on a million headlines articles in order to produce topics to describe the context of the news article. There are various generative models but we specifically focusing on the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) and Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA) for implementing and evaluating news dataset. Furthermore, the findings reveal that both NMF and LSA are useful topic modelling tools and classification frameworks, but based on the experimental results the LSA model performed well to identify the hidden data with better mean coherence values and also consumes lesser execution time than NMF. 2022 IEEE. -

A JSON Web Signature Based Adaptive Authentication Modality for Healthcare Applications
In the era of fast internet-centric systems, the importance of security cannot be stressed more. However, stringent and multiple layers of security measures tend to be a hindrance to usability. This even prompts users to bypass multi-factor authentication schemes recommended by enterprises. The need to balance security and usability gave rise to Adaptive authentication. This system of utilizing the user's behavioral context and earlier access patterns is gaining popularity. Continuously analyzing the user's request patterns and attributes against an established contextual profile helps maintain security while challenging the user only when required. This paper proposes an Open standards based authentication modality that can seamlessly integrate with an Adaptive Authentication system. The proposed authentication modality uses JavaScript Object Notation(JSON), JSON Web Signature(JWS) and supports a means of verifying the authenticity of the requesting client. The proposed authentication modality has been formally verified using Scyther and all the claims have been validated. 2022 IEEE. -

IRIS Data Classification using Genetic Algorithm Tuned Random Forest Classification
Optimising hyper-parameters in Random Forest is a time-consuming undertaking for several academics as well as professionals. To acquire greater performance hyper-parameters, specialists should explicitly customize a series of hyper-parameter settings. The best outcomes from this manual setting are then modelled and implemented in a random forest algorithm. Several datasets, on the other side, need various prototypes or hyper-parameter combinations, which may be time-consuming. To solve this, we offered various machine learning models and classifiers for correctly optimising hyper-parameters. Both genetic algorithm-based random forest and randomised CV random forest were assessed on performance measures such as sensitivity, accuracy, specificity, and F1-score. Finally, when compared to randomised CV random forest, our suggested model genetic algorithm-based random forest delivers more incredible accuracy. 2022 IEEE. -
Scalable, Cost Effective IoT Based Medical Oxygen Monitoring System for Resource Constrained Hospital Environment
Oxygen therapy is one of the critical treatments employed in epidemics, pandemics, and natural calamities. Recent covid pandemic worldwide witnessed many deaths due to improper management, delayed delivery, and wastage of medical oxygen. Therefore, efficient utilization of available oxygen is very important. To monitor and manage oxygen, several hospitals employ IoT-based systems. Scalability is an essential feature in such monitoring systems in order to cater to the needs of a sudden surge in the number of patients requiring oxygen.

In this paper, a slotted circular patch antenna with Defected Ground Structure (DGS) is presented. The slots created on radiating element and the defect introduced on the ground plane shifted the resonance frequency from 2.49 GHz to 1.17 GHz. This corresponds to 53% reduction in size at 1.17 GHz. The proposed antenna is designed on FR-4 substrate (r=4.4) with thickness of 1.6 mm. Simulations are carried out using HFSS Ver. 18.2. The simulated reflection coefficient of Circular Patch Antenna (CPA) at 2.49 GHz, Slotted Circular Patch antenna (SCPA) at 2.34 GHz and Slotted Circular Patch antenna with Defected Ground Structure (SCPA-DGS) at 1.17 GHz are - 28.7 dB, -31.33 dB and -11.03 dB respectively. For validating the simulated design, SCPA-DGS is fabricated and measured its reflection coefficient and VSWR using Vector Network Analyzer (Anritrsu S820E). The measured and simulated values are very well matched with each other. Therefore the proposed antennas may be used in sub 6 GHz 5G communication applications. 2022 IEEE. -
Efficiency Enhancement using Least Significant Bits Method in Image Steganography
Over the years, there has been a tremendous growth in the field of steganography. Steganography is a technique of hidden message passing i.e. transferring a message which is not visible to human eyes, through some media such as an image, music, games etc. In this particular article we focus on Image steganography which has its own advantages and has undergone a lot of improvements in the past years. The most basic image steganography can be achieved by changing the LSBs (Least Significant Bits) of the image pixels. These bits can usually be called the redundant bits. However, changing a large numbers of LSBs of an image can distort the image to an extent where it would be easily noticeable that the image maybe carrying a hidden message rendering it useless. These LSBs are changed according to the message bits allowing the person to hide their data which can be decoded later by reading the LSBs of image pixels. This paper introduces and explains a method to improve the efficiency of LSB method. 2022 IEEE -

The presents of noises degrade the quality of ultrasound images and diminishes the disease diagnosis accuracy. Thus, an effective automatic stone and cyst detection system is beneficial to both the medical practitioners and patients. In this paper, an automatic detection and classification system for kidney stone and cyst image is proposed. The Gaussian filtering and Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLHE) techniques are applied to improve the quality of the images. In the next step, segmentation has been done based on the entropy of the image. The gamma correction technique has been applied to improve the overall brightness and an optimal global threshold value is selected to extract the region.
