Deep learning-based feature extraction; Fuzzy neural classifier; Internet of things; Intrusion detection systems; Spotted hyena-based rider optimization
A kind of wireless network called a mobile ad hoc network (MANET) can transfer data without the aid of any infrastructure. Due to its short battery life, limited bandwidth, reliance on intermediaries or other nodes, distributed architecture, and self-organisation, the MANET node is vulnerable to many security-related attacks. The Internet of Things (IoT), a more modern networking pattern that can be seen as a superset of the paradigms discussed above, has recently come into existence. It is extremely difficult to secure these networks due to their scattered design and the few resources they have. A key function of intrusion detection systems (IDS) is the identification of hostile actions that impair network performance. It is extremely important that an IDS be able to adapt to such difficulties. As a result, the research creates a deep learning-based feature extraction to increase the machine learning technique's classification accuracy. The suggested model uses outstanding network-constructed feature extraction (RNBFE), which pulls structures from a deep residual network's many convolutional layers. Additionally, RNBFE's numerous parameters cause a lot of configuration issues because they require manual parameter adjustment. Therefore, the integration of the Rider Optimization Algorithm (ROA) and the Spotted Hyena Optimizer (SHO) to frame the new algorithm, Spotted Hyena-based Rider Optimization (S-ROA), is used to adjust the RNBFEs settings. Attack classification is performed on the resulting feature vectors using fuzzy neural classifiers (FNC). The experimental analysis uses two datasets that are publicly accessible.

Parental Attachment, Perceived Parental-Partner Similarity, and Relationship Satisfaction among Indian Emerging Adults
Culture; Emerging adults; Parental attachment; Personality; Relationship satisfaction; Relationships
Theories of mate selection debate about whether people tend to choose partners based on similarities to their parents. The present study aimed to address whether a similarity in how people perceive their parents and their partners is associated with the relationship between parental attachment and relationship satisfaction by adopting a template-matching framework. Participants were urban, emerging adults in India (n = 263, 137 male and 126 female) who were measured for how they perceive the traits of a parental figure, traits of a partner, attachment to the parent, and relationship satisfaction with the partner. Data analysis was conducted using correlations, linear regressions, and moderation analyses. Findings show that perceived neuroticism of parents was associated with perceived neuroticism of the partner. Additionally, perceptions of neuroticism of parents predicted neuroticism in partners. Perceived agreeableness, neuroticism, and openness to experience moderated the relationship between parental attachment and relationship satisfaction. A gender difference with a small effect size in perceptions of similarity was observed for openness to experience and agreeableness. Finally, perceived agreeableness also moderated the relationship between parental attachment and relationship satisfaction for men and women separately. However, for men, perceived neuroticism also significantly moderated this relationship. The findings imply that, to an extent, the more emerging adults perceive similarities of certain traits in their parents and partners, the higher likelihood that their attachment to their parent predicts relationship satisfaction with their partner. Limitations and future directions have been discussed. The Author(s) under exclusive licence to National Academy of Psychology (NAOP) India 2024.

Hydrogen Sulfide-Induced Activatable Photodynamic Therapy Adjunct to Disruption of Subcellular Glycolysis in Cancer Cells by a Fluorescence-SERS Bimodal Iridium Metal-Organic Hybrid
activatable PDT; ATP reduction; clinical validation; disrupting glycolysis; enhanced apoptosis; H2S depletion; stimuli-responsive activation
The practical application of photodynamic therapy (PDT) demands targeted and activatable photosensitizers to mitigate off-target phototoxicity common in always on photosensitizers during light exposure. Herein, a cyclometalated iridium complex-based activatable photodynamic molecular hybrid, Cy-Ir-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD), is demonstrated as a biomedicine for molecular precision. This design integrates a hydrogen sulfide (H2S)-responsive NBD unit with a hydroxy-appended iridium complex, Cy-Ir-OH. In normal physiological conditions, the electron-rich Ir metal center exerts electron transfer to the NBD unit, quenches the excited state dynamics, and establishes a PDT-off state. Upon exposure to H2S, Cy-Ir-NBD activates into the potent photosensitizer Cy-Ir-OH through nucleophilic substitution. This mechanism ensures exceptional specificity, enabling targeted phototherapy in H2S-rich cancer cells. Additionally, we observed that Cy-Ir-NBD-induced H2S depletion disrupts S-sulfhydration of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase enzyme, impairing glycolysis and ATP production in the cellular milieu. This sequential therapeutic process of Cy-Ir-NBD is governed by the positively charged central iridium ion that ensures mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in cancer cells. Dual-modality SERS and fluorescence imaging validate apoptotic events, highlighting Cy-Ir-NBD as an advanced theranostic molecular entity for activatable PDT. Finally, as a proof of concept, clinical assessment is evaluated with the blood samples of breast cancer patients and healthy volunteers, based on their H2S overexpression capability through SERS and fluorescence, revealing Cy-Ir-NBD to be a promising predictor for PDT activation in advanced cancer phototherapy. 2024 American Chemical Society.

Ultra-low loss compact active TM mode pass polarizer using phase change material in silicon waveguide
Ge2Sb2Te5; photonic integrated circuit; silicon photonics; silicon waveguide; TM pass polarizer
An active low-loss transverse magnetic (TM) pass polarizer, based on the phase change material (Ge2Sb2Te5), is proposed. The proposed polarizer is based on silicon-on-insulator technology that consists of a silicon waveguide that incorporates a thin layer of Si3N4 placed in-between GST. Enhancing the interaction between light and GST is achieved by strategically placing a double-layer GST adjacent to the slot waveguide. The polarizers tunability, on the other hand, depends on the shift in the refractive index (RI) of GST as it transitions between its crystalline and amorphous phases. By optimizing the structure, the polarizer exhibits negligible loss for both modes in the amorphous phase, and with the change of phase to crystalline, the loss of TE mode is more than 8 dB. In contrast, the loss of TM is less than 0.05 dB with a high ER of 21.82 dB, propagation length of 79.89 m and Figure of merit reaches up to 108 at 1550 nm. Due to the combination of these performance parameters, the suggested active TM pass polarizer is an appealing and effective device for various photonic applications. In addition, the fabrication technique of the proposed active TM pass polarizer is explained. 2024 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Structural, optical and electrochromic properties of WAW films for profound electrochromic applications deposited by DC & RF magnetron sputtering
Electrochromism; Sputtering and colorationefficiency; Tungsten oxide (WO3); WO3/Ag/WO3 (WAW)
One of the most frequently used transition conducting oxides (TCO) is indium tin oxide. Indium is very expensive because of the lack of availability. So Most of the researchers focused on cost-effective materials and they have developed Dielectric/Metal/Dielectric (DMD) structures for ITO-free applications. Examples of dielectric materials are AZO, MoO3, TiO2, and WO3. The dielectric material is sandwiched between metals such as Au, Ag, Pt, Cu, and Al. The efficacy of these DMD structures is purely based on the thickness of the dielectric and metal layers. Once the metal layer thickness is more than 15 nm, the transmittance is much less due to the thickness of the material and it will work as a reflector. Moreover, as WO3 is the most widely and frequently used material we focus on the fabrication of WO3/Ag/WO3 (WAW) for replacing TCO in the electrochromic device and making it indium-free. WAW structures are widely used in smart windows, gas sensors, solar cells, photodetectors, etc. For electrochromic applications, these WAW structures showed good transmittance, fast switching speed, best coloration efficiency, and best optical modulation in comparison to WO3/ITO structure and are also cost-effective. 2024 The Author(s)

Biosynthesis of CuFe2O4@Ag hybrid nanocomposite: Ultrasensitive detection and catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol
4-nitrophenol; Catalytic reduction; CuFe2O4@Ag; Electrochemical sensors; Green synthesis; Senna didymobotrya
Due to the dearth of extremely capable, sensitive, and stable catalysts, the efficient detection and catalytic removal of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in industrial wastewater remains a serious challenge. The detection and determination of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) presence in the environment is a matter of paramount importance because it is a high-priority hazardous pollutant that can affect people, animals, and plants. Here, we present a promising and economically viable green synthetic route for fabricating CuFe2O4 and CuFe2O4@Ag hybrid nanocomposites from the leaf extract of Senna didymobotrya. The UVVis, FTIR, XRD, FE-SEM, EDXA, BET and VSM analysis were performed to characterize the synthesis of CuFe2O4@Ag nanocomposite. To evaluate the electrocatalytic capacity of CuFe2O4@Ag, electrochemical sensing stratergy was performed with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The modified CuFe2O4@Ag glassy carbon electrode (GCE) (CuFe2O4@Ag/GCE) demonstrated a linear response in the range of 0.01-15 ?g/ml (71 nm-107 ?M) and the ability to detect 4-NP at low concentration (0.006 ?g/ml (43 nM)). Due to the increased surface area of CuFe2O4@Ag/GCE by ? 1.5-fold, a greater cathodic current response (-16 ?A/cm2) at a low potential of -0.81 V was observed compared to CuFe2O4/GCE alone for the detection of 4-NP. Additonally, CuFe2O4@Ag showed excellent reduction ability towards 4-NP using NaBH4 with an efficiency of 96.4 % which was higher than the CuFe2O4 (only 87.3 %) in 12 min due to the synergistic relationship among Ag NPs and CuFe2O4 nanostructures. The outcomes from this study shows that the bi-functional electrocatalyst holds vast potential for environmental remediation. 2024 The Author(s)

Strengthening of brick masonry using biaxial polypropylene geogrid as confinement reinforcement
Confinement; Cost Analysis; Geogrid; Masonry behavior; Strength
Recent and past earthquakes have once again reiterated the requirement of strengthening the masonry structures to withstand both in-plane and out-of-plane loads. In this experimental investigation, biaxial polypropylene geogrid was used as a confinement reinforcement on the surfaces to strengthen masonry specimens. The masonry specimens without and with geogrid have been subjected to a compression test, flexural bond strength test and diagonal tension (shear) test as per IS 1905, ASTM E518 and ASTM E519, respectively. From the results, it has been found that biaxial polypropylene geogrid significantly enhances the strength in masonry specimens with geogrid and also reduces crack propagation in all three tests. The relationship between compressive strength and flexural bond strength, compressive strength and shear strength of masonry specimens with geogrid has been established. Furthermore, based on the cost analysis of various strengthening techniques, it was concluded that the use of biaxial polypropylene geogrid is an economically feasible alternative to other reinforcing materials, such as stainless-steel wire mesh and polyester geogrid.

Real-time human action prediction using pose estimation with attention-based LSTM network
Attention mechanism; LSTM; Pose estimation; Skeleton key joints
Human action prediction in a live-streaming videos is a popular task in computer vision and pattern recognition. This attempts to identify activities in an image or video performed by a human. Artificial intelligence(AI)-based technologies are now required for the security and human behaviour analysis. Intricate motion patterns are involved in these actions. For the visual representation of video frames, conventional action identification approaches mostly rely on pre-trained weights of various AI architectures. This paper proposes a deep neural network called Attention-based long short-term memory (LSTM) network for skeletal based activity prediction from a video. The proposed model has been evaluated on the BerkeleyMHAD dataset having 11 action classes. Our experimental results are compared against the performance of the LSTM and Attention-based LSTM network for 6 action classes such as Jumping, Clapping, Stand-up, Sit-down, Waving one hand (Right) and Waving two hands. Also, the proposed method has been tested in a real-time environment unaffected by the pose, camera facing, and apparel. The proposed system has attained an accuracy of 95.94% on BerkeleyMHAD dataset. Hence, the proposed method is useful in an intelligent vision computing system for automatically identifying human activity in unpremeditated behaviour.

Corporate Default Prediction Model: Evidence from the Indian Industrial Sector
Bankruptcy; Credit Default; Financial Ratios; IBC; India; Logistic Regression
The unprecedented pandemic COVID-19 has impacted businesses across the globe. A significant jump in the credit default risk is expected. Credit default is an indicator of financial distress experienced by the business. Credit default often leads to bankruptcy filing against the defaulting company. In India, the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) is the law that governs insolvency and bankruptcy. As reported by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI), the number of companies filing for bankruptcy under IBC is on a rise, and the industrial sector has witnessed the maximum number of bankruptcy filings. The present article attempts to develop a credit default prediction model for the Indian industrial sector based on a sample of 164 companies comprising an equal number of defaulting and nondefaulting companies. A total of 120 companies are used as training samples and 44 companies as the testing samples. Binary logistic regression analysis is employed to develop the model. The diagnostic ability of the model is tested using receiver operating characteristic curve, area under the curve and annual accuracy. According to the study, return on assets, current ratio, debt to total assets ratio, sales to working capital ratio and cash flow to total assets ratio is statistically significant in predicting default. The findings of the study have significant implications in lending and investment decisions. 2021 MDI.

Secure approach to sharing digitized medical data in a cloud environment
Attribute-based encryption; Authentication; Cloud computing; Data privacy; Electronic medical records
Without proper security mechanisms, medical records stored electronically can be accessed more easily than physical files. Patient health information is scattered throughout the hospital environment, including laboratories, pharmacies, and daily medical status reports. The electronic format of medical reports ensures that all information is available in a single place. However, it is difficult to store and manage large amounts of data. Dedicated servers and a data center are needed to store and manage patient data. However, self-managed data centers are expensive for hospitals. Storing data in a cloud is a cheaper alternative. The advantage of storing data in a cloud is that it can be retrieved anywhere and anytime using any device connected to the Internet. Therefore, doctors can easily access the medical history of a patient and diagnose diseases according to the context. It also helps prescribe the correct medicine to a patient in an appropriate way. The systematic storage of medical records could help reduce medical errors in hospitals. The challenge is to store medical records on a third-party cloud server while addressing privacy and security concerns. These servers are often semi-trusted. Thus, sensitive medical information must be protected. Open access to records and modifications performed on the information in those records may even cause patient fatalities. Patient-centric health-record security is a major concern. End-to-end file encryption before outsourcing data to a third-party cloud server ensures security. This paper presents a method that is a combination of the advanced encryption standard and the elliptical curve Diffie-Hellman method designed to increase the efficiency of medical record security for users. Comparisons of existing and proposed techniques are presented at the end of the article, with a focus on the analyzing the security approaches between the elliptic curve and secret-sharing methods. This study aims to provide a high level of security for patient health records. 2023 Xi'an Jiaotong University

Two dimensional fuzzy context-free languages and tiling patterns
Fuzzy languages; Fuzzy pushdown automata; Picture languages; Two dimensional fuzzy languages
Fuzzy context-free languages are powerful compared to fuzzy regular languages as they are generated by fuzzy context-free grammars and fuzzy pushdown automata, which follow an enhanced computational mechanism. A two dimensional language (picture language) is a collection of two dimensional words, which are a rectangular array of symbols made up of finite alphabets. Two dimensional automata can recognize two dimensional languages that could not be recognized by one dimensional automata. In this paper, we introduce two dimensional fuzzy context-free languages generated by the two dimensional fuzzy context-free grammars and accepted by the two dimensional fuzzy pushdown automata in order to deal with the vagueness that arises in two dimensional context-free languages. We can construct a two dimensional fuzzy context free grammar from the given two dimensional fuzzy pushdown automata and vice versa. In addition, we prove that two dimensional fuzzy context-free languages are closed under union, column concatenation, column star, homomorphism, inverse homomorphism, reflection about right-most vertical, reflection about base, conjugation and half-turn and also show that two dimensional fuzzy context-free languages are not closed under matrix homomorphism, quarter-turn and transpose. Further, we have given the applications and the uses of closure properties in the formation of tiling patterns. 2024 Elsevier B.V.

Does environmental reporting ofbanks affect their financial performance? Evidence from India
Banking sector; Environmental reporting; Financial performance; Panel regression analysis; Sustainability
Purpose: The present study aims to investigate the effect of environmental reporting on the financial performance of banks in India. Design/methodology/approach: The study is based on the secondary data. The sample includes the banks listed in the NSE Nifty Bank Index from 20162017 to 20202021. The environmental reporting data was obtained through the content analysis technique. The financial data was collected from the CMIE Prowess database. Panel regression analysis was used to analyse the data. Findings: The findings indicate a negative significant influence of environmental reporting on the ROA and ROE of banks. On the other hand, environmental reporting does not significantly influence the EPS of banking institutions. Originality/value: To the best of the authors knowledge, this study is the first to contribute to the scarce literature on the influence of environmental reporting on financial performance, pertinently in the context of a developing nation's banking sector. 2023, Emerald Publishing Limited.

Enhancement of tensile strength and elastic modulus using bio-waste based carbon nanospheres doped polymer nanocomposites
Bio-waste; Carbon nanospheres; Elastic modulus; Polymer nanocomposites; Tensile Strength
The Carbon Nano Spheres (CNS) derived from areca nuts were synthesized from pyrolysis process and were used as fillers for fabrication of polymer nano composite materials. The filler materials are loaded in 0.05%, 0.1% and 0.5% loading percentages. The optimum sample was subjected to heat treatment. The tensile strength, elastic modulus and % of elongation were investigated for all samples. The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images revealed the morphological features of optimum samples and hence the uniform dispersion of CNS in polymer matrix. The 0.1% samples showed 10% improvement in Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) and 24% improvement in Elastic modulus compared to bare epoxy material. When 0.1% samplewas subjected to heat treatment under 200C the UTS improved by 23%. Hence, CNS reinforced composite materials exhibited unique properties like high strength, less weight and low cost making them suitable for various structural applications such as aerospace, automotive, construction, and electronics industries.

Imidazopyridine Hydrazine Conjugates as Potent Anti-TB Agents with their Docking, SAR, and DFT Studies
and X-ray; Anti-TB; DFT studies; Docking; Imidazopyridine
Novel imidazopyridines hydrazine conjugates were designed and synthesized for their anti-tubercular (anti-TB) activity. A cytotoxicity assay was conducted with Vero cells to determine the safety profile of the most effective compounds. It was found that compound (IA3) (MIC=0.78 ?M) and (IA8) (MIC=1.12 ?M) were nearly 3.7 and 2.5 times more active than pyrazinamide. Based on Density functional theory (DFT), these molecules exhibited better charge transfer between molecular orbital's, which made them suitable for biological applications. Molecular docking on Mycobacterium tuberculosis InhA bound to NITD-916 (PDB: 4R9S) revealed that compounds possessed greater binding affinity towards proteins. In addition, the most active anti-TB compounds (IA3) and (IA8) exhibited high levels of interaction with the target protein and exceptional safety profile, suggesting they may prove to be effective leads for new drugs. 2024 Wiley-VCH GmbH.

Unpacking the burden of hypertension and diabetes in Karnataka: implications for policy and practice based on NFHS-5 findings
Diabetes; Healthcare-seeking behaviour; Hypertension; Prevalence; Risk factors
Objective: To investigate the prevalence, risk factors, and healthcare-seeking patterns of hypertension and diabetes in Karnataka, India, and to offer knowledge that might guide public health initiatives intended to lessen the burden of these illnesses. Methods: In order to examine the prevalence, risk factors, and healthcare-seeking behaviour of hypertension and diabetes in Karnataka, India, a cross-sectional study is carried out using the information gathered from 26,574 households on 30,455 women and 4516 men (who were in their reproductive period) from the National Family Health Survey (201920). The information was summarised using descriptive statistics, which included frequencies and percentages. The association between different risk variables and the likelihood of getting diabetes and hypertension was examined using the chi-squared test and a logistic regression model. Data were analysed using STATA software version 16. Results: The study found that age, gender, education level, religion, and BMI are all significantly associated with hypertension and diabetes (p < 0.001). Tobacco use and alcohol consumption were not significantly associated with hypertension, but tobacco use was significantly associated with diabetes (p < 0.001). However, alcohol consumption was not found to be significantly associated with diabetes whereas the older age groups, males, underweight, overweight and obese, and tobacco use were all associated with increased odds of diabetes. On the other hand, females, secondary education or higher, and alcohol consumption were associated with decreased odds of diabetes. Conclusion: In conclusion, the study found a high prevalence of hypertension and diabetes in Karnataka, India, and identified several risk factors associated with these diseases. The study also highlighted the need for improved healthcare-seeking behaviour among people with hypertension and diabetes. The findings can inform public health interventions aimed at reducing the burden of these diseases in Karnataka and similar settings.

Social support and help-seeking worldwide
Cross-cultural; Cultural values; Regional; Social support; Subjective social status
Social support has long been associated with positive physical, behavioral, and mental health outcomes. However, contextual factors such as subjective social status and an individuals cultural values, heavily influence social support behaviors (e.g., perceive available social support, accept support, seek support, provide support). We sought to determine the current state of social support behaviors and the association between these behaviors, cultural values, and subjective social support across regions of the world. Data from 6,366 participants were collected by collaborators from over 50 worldwide sites (67.4% or n = 4292, assigned female at birth; average age of 30.76). Our results show that individuals cultural values and subjective social status varied across world regions and were differentially associated with social support behaviors. For example, individuals with higher subjective social status were more likely to indicate more perceived and received social support and help-seeking behaviors; they also indicated more provision of social support to others than individuals with lower subjective social status. Further, horizontal, and vertical collectivism were related to higher help-seeking behavior, perceived support, received support, and provision of support, whereas horizontal individualism was associated with less perceived support and less help-seeking and vertical individualism was associated with less perceived and received support, but more help-seeking behavior. However, these effects were not consistently moderated by region. These findings highlight and advance the understanding of how cross-cultural complexities and contextual distinctions influence an individual's perception, processing, and practice of social support embedded in the changing social landscape.

Analysis of zoochemical from Meretrix casta (Mollusca: Bivalvia) extracts, collected from Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, India and their pharmaceutical activities
Marine Anti-diabetic Agents; Marine Ethnomedicine; Marine natural products; Marine Pharmacognosy; Therapeutic exploration
The marine ecosystem's diverse animal species offer a unique opportunity to discover marine-derived natural products. While numerous invertebrates have been studied, research on Indian marine invertebrates, especially Meretrix casta, remains limited. This study explores the zoochemical composition of ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts from Meretrix casta off Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, India, and evaluates their bioactive potential, focusing on antioxidant properties, glucose uptake in yeast cells, and alpha-amylase activity. The results reveal the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, sterols, terpenoids, and cardiac glycosides in both extracts, highlighting their bioactive potential. Although their antioxidant capacity is slightly lower than ascorbic acid, the extracts demonstrated significant alpha-amylase inhibition, suggesting their potential in blood sugar regulation and diabetes management. These findings underscore the therapeutic potential of M. casta in developing anti-diabetic compounds, warranting further pharmacological exploration. Authors.
