description: According to the data released by the World Health Organization (WHO). Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are still the leading thread worldwide. Every year around 17.9 million fatalities worldwide are attributed to CVDs, making up 31% of overall deceases. Heart attacks and strokes are the main causes account for most of these deaths, and a large fraction happen so early in the age group of under 70. Check-ups are essential to monitor the healthcondition of the elderly people, which generates a considerable challenge to the existing medical field. Subsequently,It's becoming more crucial to diagnose diseases quickly and accurately with an affordable cost. The World's population growth need for a smart and affordable healthcare solutions to reduce the medical costs. Thus, the development of an effective health monitoring system that can quickly identify irregularities in health and provide precise diagnoses based on gathered data is imperative. New developments in cloud computing and mobile technologies have led to the development of a number of cloud-based healthcare products and services. These cloud systems allow for the automatic collection and transmission of medical data to providers from any place, allowing for the network-based delivery of patient feedback. This project's goal is to use the ThingSpeak IoT platform to create and implement an Internet of Things-based patient health monitoring system in order to meet these goals. 2026 Author(s).

SARIMA-Random Forest Framework for Forecasting Anthracnose Severity in Bottle Gourd Under Variable Transplanting Dates
subject: artificial intelligence; climate-resilient disease management; disease forecasting; epidemiological modelling; machine learning; time series modelling
description: Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum lagenarium, is an economically important disease affecting bottle gourd. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of transplanting time and weather parameters on anthracnose progression and to develop a forecasting framework using statistical and machine-learning models. Field experiments were conducted during the monsoon seasons of 2023 and 2024, with four transplanting dates: 1 June, 15 June, 1 July and 15 July. Disease severity was assessed weekly on leaves and fruits along with concurrent recording of weather data. Correlation and regression analyses revealed minimum temperature as the most influential weather variables, particularly during early transplanting dates. The regression models yielded the highest explanatory power for 1 June fruits (R2 = 0.675), while later transplanting dates showed reduced disease pressure and lower model accuracy. To capture seasonal trends and short-term predictability, Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models with configuration (1,1,1) (1,1,1) [15] were applied. These models effectively forecasted disease progression, especially for July transplanting with lower mean squared errors (MSE < 200). Time series decomposition showed strong seasonal and trend components in early sowings, while cross-correlation analysis confirmed a 13-week lag between weather triggers and disease expression. This study emphasises the importance of transplanting time in disease development and demonstrates the potential of combining SARIMA and random forest models for developing weather-based early warning systems. These findings contribute to climate-resilient crop protection strategies and can aid in timely decision-making for anthracnose management in bottle gourd and related cucurbits. 2025 British Society for Plant Pathology.

subject: Crop plants; Endonuclease enzyme; Genome editing; Zinc-finger nucleases
description: The chapter provides a comprehensive exploration of zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs), intricate molecular tools designed to integrate genes of interest into target sites, thereby instigating both phenotypic and genotypic transformations. The focal point of this genetic manipulation lies in the activity of the FokI endonuclease enzyme, which, through the formation of homodimers, orchestrates precise cleavage at integration sites. Leveraging the wealth of genomic information across diverse organisms, the chapter elucidates the mechanistic underpinnings of ZFNs. A particular emphasis is placed on the modular assembly of ZFNs, unravelling the formation of ??? motifs and explicating the nuanced mechanisms governing their actions. The application of this methodology in plant engineering holds paramount significance, particularly in the realm of augmenting stress tolerance and nutritional value. The chapter systematically examines the gene of interest for various plants, including tobacco, soybean, Arabidopsis thaliana, rice, and wheat, elucidating the corresponding ZFN mechanisms. The amalgamation of sophisticated genetic tools with a detailed understanding of plant genomes presents a promising avenue for tailoring crops to meet diverse agricultural challenges. This work not only contributes to the fundamental understanding of ZFNs but also underscores their practical implications in advancing crop improvement strategies for sustainable agriculture.

Pneumonia classification from chest X-rays using significant feature selection and machine learning
subject: Feature selection; Machine learning; Pneumonia; Radiomics; Wavelet features; X-ray
description: The chest X-ray images of normal lungs differ only subtly from those of lungs with pneumonia, making image-based diagnosis highly challenging. To address this issue, we developed a machine learning (ML)-based, lightweight, end-to-end Python package that processes chest X-ray images, implements robust feature selection methods, and classifies the images using various algorithms. While many studies have focused on improving classification accuracy using newer methods, few have addressed the interpretability of the extracted features or the growing computational demands of complex models. We used four publicly available datasets and extracted first-order, textural, and transform-based radiomic features to test our package. Features were selected using the Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) combined with recursive feature elimination (RFE) and stability selection algorithms. Our final solution contains a method that extracts a finite set of features identified by stability selection and feeds them as inputs into classical ML algorithms. Our model achieved 98% accuracy on the primary dataset, and 97%1, 96%2, and 94%2% accuracy on the other three datasets. Our approach is fast, self-contained, and requires only an ideal set of features, making it suitable for resource-constrained clinical environments.

HCI Authentication to Prevent Internal Threats in Cloud Computing
subject: Biometric authentication; Cloud computing; FIDO; HCI; Multi-authentication
description: Cloud computing reduces physical resources and simplifies common management tasks. Over the past decade, cloud computing has become an important IT (information technology) industry, driving cost savings, flexibility, convenience, and scalability. Despite these advantages, many government organizations and companies are still cautious about using cloud computing. They continue to believe that the threats inherent in cloud computing technology are greater and deadly than traditional technologies. Cloud computing security threats typically include insider attacks, malware attacks, information leaks and losses, distributed denial of service, and application programming interface vulnerability attacks. Technical security improvements for virtual networks are actively researched, and many are working hard. But defending against internal attackers is more than just a technical solution but a complement to manuals and company policy. In reality, however, there are cases of damage by internal attackers, and the damage is getting bigger. Technically malicious internal attackers can relatively easily manipulate the control system and cause malfunctions. This paper provides comprehensive information about security threats in cloud computing, shows the severity of attacks by insiders, analyzes the latest authentication technologies for humancomputer interaction, and identifies the pros and cons. This shows how HCI (humancomputer interaction) technology can be applied to cloud computing management servers. The result is an innovative security certification model that can be applied. 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Advancing Tibetan Text-to-Speech: Challenges and Innovations
subject: FastPitch; Fine-tuned machine learning models; HiFi-GAN; Phonetic adaptation; Text to audio processing; Tibetan Text-to-Speech
description: This initiative aims to develop a platform for Tibetan Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology, addressing the significant demand for this technology for the Tibetan language. The main objective of this project is to create a system that is capable of converting text into natural and good quality speech. Through the compilation of Tibetan text-audio datasets, the project meets the increasing demand for technology that preserves oral traditions and allows Tibetans to communicate with other people interested in the language. The process includes the gathering of varied Tibetan text and audio samples, such as news articles, followed by processing of data through cleaning processes and statistical analysis. A benchmark dataset is created to enable the testing of models. The lack of certain resources for Tibetan TTS is addressed by the development of pre-trained machine learning models specific to acoustic modeling, using the adapted FastPitch model for waveform synthesis through the HiFi-GAN vocoder. The existing models were?further trained utilizing features particular to Tibetan phonetics and tonalities. The TTS approach is a key strategy for improving digital accessibility for Tibetan speakers and for safeguarding their cultural heritage; it finds applications in media, education, and communication, thus helping to preserve the Tibetan language in the digital era.

Drought PredictionA Comparative Analysis of Supervised Machine Learning Techniques
subject: Artificial neural network; Decision tree; K-nearest neighbors; Machine learning; Random forest; Supervised; Support vector machine
description: Drought is a natural phenomenon that puts many lives at risk. Over the last decades, the suicide rate of farmers in the agriculture sector has increased due to drought. Water shortage affects 40% of the world's population and is not to be taken lightly. Therefore, prediction of drought places a significant role in saving millions of lives on this planet. In this research work, six different supervised machine learning (SML) models namely support vector machine (SVM), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), decision tree (DT), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), long short-term memory (LSTM), and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are compared and analyzed. Three dimensionality reduction techniques principal component analysis (PCA), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and random forest (RF) are applied to enhance the performance of the SML models. During the experimental process, it is observed that RNN model yielded better accuracy of 88.97% with 11.26% performance enhancement using RF dimensionality reduction technique. The dataset has been modeled using RNN in such a way that each pattern is reliant on the preceding ones. Despite the greater dataset, the RNN model size did not expand, and the weights are observed to be shared between time steps. RNN also employed its internal memory to process the arbitrary series of inputs, which helped it outperform other SML models. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Victimizing Cyberbullying Mental Illness Through Social Media
subject: BiLSTM; Cyberbullying; EmoBERTa
description: With the exponential increase of technologies and the growth of social media users, bullying takes different methods to reach its targets. Cyberbullying has been emerging lately in the form of bullying through voice memos, videos, and most frequently in the form of text messages. Bullies might use the rich and expansive environment that social networks offer to target their victims with their attacks. Cyberbullying has an especially negative impact on younger generations, who value social affirmation above everything. Studies have found a clear link between cyberbullying and suicidal ideation, particularly in teens. This concerning trend needs the development of efficient ways for identifying and combating cyberbullying, thereby protecting young lives. Many techniques can be used to identify the bullies linguistic patterns and create a detection model that will automatically identify instances of cyberbullying and whether it can lead to the happening of suicide or not. This project proposes a hybrid model of BiLSTM and EmoBERTa for detecting cyberbullying and checking the possibilities of it leading to the happenings of suicide. The dataset was run on different models and the proposed model yields the best average performance. By putting such detecting mechanisms in place, we can make the Internet safer. Early detection of cyberbullying enables intervention, which protects vulnerable people and may avoid disasters. The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.

Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning for Hybrid Motion Planning in Dynamic Environments
subject: Autonomous agents; Distributed algorithms; Dynamic obstacles; Multi-agent systems; Trajectory optimization
description: This research presents a novel approach to addressing the challenges of gesture forecasting in impenetrable and dynamic atmospheres by integrating a hybrid algorithm within a multi-agent system framework. Traditional methods such as Force-based motion planning (FMP) & deep reinforcement learning (RL) often struggle to handle complex scenarios involving multiple autonomous agents due to their inherent limitations. To overcome these challenges, we propose a hybrid algorithm that seamlessly combines the strengths of RL and FMP while leveraging the coordination capabilities of a multi-agent system. By integrating this hybrid algorithm into a multi-agent framework, we demonstrate its effectiveness in enabling multiple agents to navigate densely populated environments with dynamic obstacles. Through extensive simulation studies, we illustrate the superior performance of our approach compared to traditional methods, achieving higher success rates and improved efficiency in scenarios involving simultaneous motion planning for multiple agents. A hybrid motion planning algorithm is also introduced in this very research. Performance Comparison of Hybrid Algorithm, Deep RL, and FMP are also discussed in the result section. This research paves the way for the development of robust and scalable solutions for motion planning in real-world applications such as collaborative robotics, autonomous vehicle fleets, and intelligent transportation systems. 2024 IEEE.
