MLLMs have the capability to process data from several sources, including structured and unstructured. It enables large language models (LLMs) to give insights to the user by analyzing data from various formats. The traditional way of analyzing the data was done with a single data format. While using MLLMs, multiple data modalities are handled to manage complicated multimodal tasks, like generating content, multimodal perception, and augmenting human-computer interaction. This chapter discusses in detail the insights from data from multiple modalities and domains of the use cases of MLLMs. We also discuss the advantages of MLLMs and explain the transformative benefits from unimodal systems to multimodal systems in different sectors. We also focus on the ethical usage of MLLMs by addressing the challenges related to privacy, operational limits, bias, computational difficulties, and data scarcity. The scarce assessment metrics and trials in accomplishing robust explainability are also discussed. To train these MLLMs, acquiring and training the data utilizes more computation and power consumption, along with addressing the data security and privacy concerns. The chapter also discusses the sensible usage of AI through different problems and practices. Detailed analysis and strategies for addressing global challenges and promoting novelty in model development, outlining how these MLLMs shape the upcoming technological innovation focusing on ethical application of technology with an advantage on society. 2026 Elsevier Inc.

Applications of artificial intelligence to neurological disorders: Current technologies and open problems
subject: Alzheimers disease; Artificial intelligence; Autism spectrum disorder; Dementia; Epilepsy; Machine learning; Mild cognitive impairment; Multiple sclerosis; Neurological disorder; Parkinsons disease; Schizophrenia; Stroke
description: Neurological disorders are caused by structural, biochemical, and electrical abnormalities involving the central and peripheral nervous system. These disorders may be congenital, developmental, or acute onset in nature. Some of the conditions respond to surgical interventions while most require pharmacological intervention and management, and are also likely to be progressive in nature. Owing to a high global burden of the most common neurological disorders, such as dementia, stroke, epilepsy, Parkinsons disease, multiple sclerosis, migraine, and tension-type headache, there exist multiple challenges in early diagnosis, management, and prevention domains, which are further amplified in regions with inadequate medical services. In such situations, technology ought to play an inevitable role. In this chapter, we review artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies for mitigating the challenges posed by neurological disorders. To that end, we follow three steps. First, we present the taxonomy of neurological disorders, derived from well-established findings in the medical literature. Second, we identify challenges posed by each of the common disorders in the taxonomy that can be defined as computational problems. Finally, we review AI/ML algorithms that have either stood the test of time or shown the promise to solve each of these problems. We also discuss open problems that are yet to have an effective solution for the challenges posed by neurological disorders. This chapter covers a wide range of disorders and AI/ML techniques with the goal to expose researchers and practitioners in neurological disorders and AI/ML to each others field, leading to fruitful collaborations and effective solutions. 2022 Elsevier Inc.

Applications of bioconvection for tiny particles due to two concentric cylinders when role of Lorentz force is significant
description: The bioconvection flow of tiny fluid conveying the nanoparticles has been investigated between two concentric cylinders. The contribution of Lorenz force is also focused to inspect the bioconvection thermal transport of tiny particles. The tiny particles are assumed to flow between two concentric cylinders of different radii. The first cylinder remains at rest while flow is induced due to second cylinder which rotates with uniform velocity. Furthermore, the movement of tiny particles follows the principle of thermophoresis and Brownian motion as a part of thermal and mass gradient. Similarly, the gyro-tactic microorganisms swim in the nanofluid as a response to the density gradient and constitute bio-convection. The problem is modeled by using the certain laws. The numerical outcomes are computed by using RKF-45 method. The graphical simulations are performed for flow parameters with specific range like 1?Re?5, 1?Ha?5, 0.5?Nt?2.5, 1?Nb?3, 0.2?Sc?1.8, 0.2?Pe?1.0 and 0.2???1.0. It is observed that the flow velocity decreases with the increase in the Hartmann number that signifies the magnetic field. This outcome indicates that the flow velocity can be controlled externally through the magnetic field. Also, the increase in the Schmidt numbers increases the nanoparticle concentration and the motile density. 2022 Zhang et al.

Applying a Multi-Agent Simulation Model for Examining Restorative Justice-Based Intervention in the Criminal Justice System: A Legal and Technological Perspective
subject: Artificial Intelligence; Child Sexual Abuse; JADE-NetLoGo Integration; Restorative Justice; Simulation; Victim rights
description: Previous studies on Restorative Justice (RJ) have focused on the theoretical underpinnings of RJ and its processes. Several systematic literature reviews on RJ point out its potential to assist in victim healing much better compared to the traditional criminal justice system. However, the potential and viability of RJ largely remain in the theoretical landscape. Few empirical studies or simulations have been conducted to explore the viability of this practice in the legal domain. Furthermore, apart from purely studying RJ, literature also points towards its potential use in addressing child sexual abuse cases (CSA) by providing a child and victim-centric approach. However, the practicality of this claim remains scant in present times. Given the gap in the global discourse on the use of RJ as an intervention strategy in the criminal justice system, this paper outlines a computational framework for including RJ into the legal system. The paper does so by applying a Multi-Agent Simulation model (MAS). By utilising JADE for agent orchestration and NetLogo for a visual structure, the framework encodes multiple stakeholders such as accused/ offender, victim, counsellors and judges as autonomous agents with state vectors, utility performance and ACL-communication. The criminal justice system is compared to the restorative justice system using metrics like resolution rate, time, victim healing, rehabilitation and reintegration into the community. Through this paper, a foundation is laid for the potential of RJ in CSA. This paper will enable law and policy makers to consider introducing alternative practices like RJ. 2026 IEEE.

description: More than fifty percent of all liver cognate deaths are caused by alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Excessive drinking over the time leads to alcohol-related steatohepatitis and fatty liver, this in turn can lead to alcoholic liver fibrosis (ALF) and in due course alcohol-related liver cirrhosis (ALC). Detecting ALD at an early stage will reduce the treatment cost to the patient and reduce mortality. In this research, a two-step model is developed for predicting the liver cirrhosis using different ensemble classifiers. Among 41 features recorded during data collection, only 15 features arefound to be effective determinants of the class variable. The proposed stacked ensemble technique for ALD prediction is compared with other ensemble models such as random forest, AdaBoost, and bagging. Through experimentation, it is observed that the proposed model with XGBoost and decision tree as base models and logistic regression as Meta model exhibits prediction accuracy of 93.86%. The prediction accuracy of theproposed stacked ensemble technique is 0.2% better in prediction accuracy and 0.3% reduced error rate in comparison with random forest classifier. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

APPLYING SOLUTION-FOCUSED BRIEF THERAPY IN COGNITIVE REHABILITATION: Insights from Positive Neuropsychology
description: Neurocognitive rehabilitation refers to the procedure involved in helping patients recover or regain some of the lost functions of the brain after an internal and external injury. Specific psychotherapeutic procedures are also combined with these rehabilitation strategies for the maximum benefit of the patients. Solution-focused brief therapy (SFBT) is a psychotherapy that allows clients to focus their attention on the solution rather than exploring the origin of the problem and focusing on their strengths and resources. It is a brief therapy based on a positive psychology approach. The traditional cognitive rehabilitation techniques focus on deficit remediation, while SFBT offers a strength-based approach that focuses on the clients resources, exceptions to the problems, and goal-oriented behavior. The integration of these approaches will bring a shift in the paradigm of neurorehabilitation by providing a balance between cognitive challenges and preserved strengths. In the realm of cognitive rehabilitation, SFBT can empower individuals with neurological impairments by fostering resilience, adapting coping strategies, and self-efficacy. This chapter explores the innovative application of SFBT principles within cognitive rehabilitation settings, which can be viewed from the lens of positive neurorehabilitation. It will also propose a framework for integrating the CAPE model (Compensatory, Activity, Preventive & Enhancement) with salient principles of SFBT, emphasizing the potential role of positive neuropsychology in cognitive rehabilitation. 2026 selection and editorial matter, K.

Appraisal of prolyl 4-hydroxylase alpha subunit gene polymorphisms in Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia of Handigodu type (SEMDHG)
subject: 4-hydroxyproline; Collagen; Handigodu; Prolyl 4-hydroxylase; Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia
description: Background: The Handigodu variant of Spondyloepimetaphyseal Dysplasia (SEMDHG) is a severe, progressive osteoarthritic disorder characterized by chronic pain and joint degeneration. Clinically, the disorder presents in three distinct phenotypic forms, each exhibiting varying degrees of stature reduction and disease severity. Urine analysis of affected individuals reveals an elevated peptide-bound proline to 4-hydroxyproline ratio relative to controls, suggesting disruptions in collagen metabolism. Given the critical role of prolyl 4-hydroxylase enzymes in stabilizing collagen structure, this study undertook a comprehensive sequence analysis of all three isoforms of prolyl 4-hydroxylase in both affected and unaffected individuals to elucidate potential molecular underpinnings of the disorder. Method: The entire exonic regions and 2000 base pairs upstream of the translation start sites of the P4HA1, P4HA2, and P4HA3 genes were sequenced in a cohort of 300 individuals, comprising 166 affected and 134 unaffected individuals. Results: Sequence analysis of the ? (I), ? (II), and ? (III) subunit genes identified three novel SNPs and a 39-bp deletion variant, in addition to ten previously reported SNPs catalogued in dbSNP. The SNP rs28384495 in P4HA1, the 39-bp deletion variant, and a novel mutation (SNP3) in P4HA3 exhibited significantly different allele frequencies between patients and controls. Genotype association analysis revealed that SNPs in P4HA1 and P4HA3 were associated with Type 2 and Type 3 HD under various genetic models. Notably, all Type 2 HD patients were heterozygous for the 39-bp deletion, whereas all Type 3 HD patients were homozygous for the variant. Haplotype analysis corroborated the findings of the genotype association analysis. Conclusion: This study is the first to account an association between the P4H gene and disease. Further research is needed to evaluate the functional implications of the identified mutations. 2024

title: Appraisal of the potential of endophytic bacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens from Alternanthera philoxeroides: A triple approach to heavy metal bioremediation, diesel biodegradation, and biosurfactant production
subject: Alternanthera philoxeroides; Bacillus amyloliquefaciens; Bioremediation; Biosurfactant, Diesel biodegradation; Endophyte; Heavy metal
description: Endophytic microbes have been associated with many positive traits due to their endurance mechanisms. The current study was designed at exploring the potential of the endophytic bacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MEBAphL4 isolated from Alternanthera philoxeroides for biosurfactant production and bioremediation efficiency. This endophyte, isolated from the polluted Madiwala lake in Bangalore, displayed elevated resistance to Cr and Pb till 2000 mg/L. The metal removal efficiency was found to be higher for Cr (25.7 %) at pH 6 and for Pb (92.3 %) at pH 9. Further, the present study also describes biosurfactant production with good emulsification ability (E24-52 %) and stability over a range of pH (8?12), temperature (2040C) and salinity (515 %). Biosurfactant production was enhanced 1.18-fold using the Response Surface Methodology approach and characterised by Fourier Transformation Infra-red Spectroscopy and Ultra-Performance Liquid Chromatography- Mass Spectrometry showing the presence of lipopeptides, fengycin, iturin and surfactin of molecular weights 1463.65, 1043.44 and 1012.56 Da respectively. The potential application of the biosurfactant in degrading various hydrocarbons was evaluated, demonstrating its effectiveness in bioremediation of oil-contaminated sites. Specifically, diesel biodegradation was measured at 56.460.95 %. These findings underscore the potential of B. amyloliquefaciens in environmental applications such as heavy metal biosorption and the bioremediation of contaminated sites, particularly those affected by oil spills and correlates to UN SDG6 of clean water and sanitation. 2024 Elsevier Ltd
