DTDO: Driving Training Development Optimization enabled deep learning approach for brain tumour classification using MRI
A brain tumour is an abnormal mass of tissue. Brain tumours vary in size, from tiny to large. Moreover, they display variations in location, shape, and size, which add complexity to their detection. The accurate delineation of tumour regions poses a challenge due to their irregular boundaries. In this research, these issues are overcome by introducing the DTDO-ZFNet for detection of brain tumour. The input Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) image is fed to the pre-processing stage. Tumour areas are segmented by utilizing SegNet in which the factors of SegNet are biased using DTDO. The image augmentation is carried out using eminent techniques, such as geometric transformation and colour space transformation. Here, features such as GIST descriptor, PCA-NGIST, statistical feature and Haralick features, SLBT feature, and CNN features are extricated. Finally, the categorization of the tumour is accomplished based on ZFNet, which is trained by utilizing DTDO. The devised DTDO is a consolidation of DTBO and CDDO. The comparison of proposed DTDO-ZFNet with the existing methods, which results in highest accuracy of 0.944, a positive predictive value (PPV) of 0.936, a true positive rate (TPR) of 0.939, a negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.937, and a minimal false-negative rate (FNR) of 0.061%. 2024 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. -
Autism spectrum disorder detection using brain MRI image enabled deep learning with hybrid sewing training optimization
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is brain enabled disorder representing behaviors in a repetitive manner and social deficits. In this paper, ASD is diagnosed using brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enabled deep learning with a hybrid optimization algorithm. Also, the hybrid optimization algorithm utilized is hybrid sewing training optimization (HSTO) which trains ZFNet for ASD detection. Pre-processing of the MRI image is done by Wiener filter and the filtered image is fed for region of interest extraction. Moreover, pivotal region extraction is carried out by the proposed HSTO, which is finally allowed for ASD detection by ZFNet. The proposed HSTO is formed by combining sewing training-based optimization and hybrid leader-based optimization. Furthermore, the performance of HSTO_ZFNet is found by five performance metrics of accuracy with 95.7%, true negative rate with 92.6%, true positive rate with 93.7%, false negative rate with 68.7%, and false positive rate with75.9%. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag London Ltd., part of Springer Nature. -

Complex Network Articulation Points Detection and Centrality Measures
To clearly understand how network structure and function interact is a basic difficulty in the study of large networked systems. An old-fashioned idea from graph theory, called articulation points, may be used to do this. In a network, a node If removing it causes the network to become disconnected or causes more network components to get linked, it is an articulation point (AP). Single points of collapse are represented as articulation points in networks. The major goal of this research is to provide a method for identifying the articulation points and centrality measures. We can locate the articulation points considerably more quickly and effectively by using TARJANS Algorithm, which uses depth-first search. It must fulfill two requirements to qualify as an articulation point. For the root node of a DFS traversal to be an articulation point, it must contain at least two offspring nodes that are members of various sub graphs. It has been discovered that articulation points (APS) are crucial for maintaining the reliability and connection of several real-world networks. By assigning each node in the graph a scalar value based on an assumption, centrality metrics may be used to quantify each nodes significance. A fundamental centrality metric is node degree. In terms of node neighbors, it is equivalent. Hence, the more neighbors a node has, the more central and densely linked it is, and the more it affects the network by having more neighbors.

Mathematical models in waste management
Waste management is a major issue faced by municipalities all over the world. The major problem associated with the waste managements newlineis its high cost and main part of the cost comes from its collection and transportation. This problem can be effectively overcome by the application of mathematical models. newlineAn important aspect of waste management is locating facilities like truck locations, transfer stations, compost units etc. The location of facilities when collection of waste happens at multiple time periods is newlineconsidered for cost minimization. The rapid increase in the population of cities as a result of vast urbanization and the corresponding shrinking of land has given rise to increase in apartment complexes in newlineall the cities. The waste management practices here have to be planned carefully as they are sources of large quantities of waste. They are also potential sites for recycling and composting as waste management newlinepractices can be introduced at apartment level itself, so that transportation burden is less. Components like fixed cost /maintenance cost and operational costs are considered for the study in cities as well newlineas in apartments. Testing the mathematical model is done using different scenarios and the results are used to draw conclusions. These results showed that the model works best when processing facilities are nearer to the transfer stations so that there is no additional cost incurred at that point for transportation. In addition, it was clear that the cost of the transportation is brought down using the model, as the newlineamount transported to landfills decreases. newlineScheduling a set of resources to a set of jobs can be done using resource calendar, which shows the availability of resources and the various time periods at which it a particular resource is available. There are different types of jobs and various types of resources. -

From Concept to Clinic
Virtual reality (VR) is an innovative technology with various applications in fields such as simulation, gaming, sports, and entertainment. VR technology has extended its reach into the medical industry, leveraging computer-generated information and visuals to simulate real-world sensory experiences. Augmented reality (AR) is an expertise that covers computer-generated virtual objects onto the real world when it is seen through mobile phones, tablets, or AR glasses. VR and AR have started popular in 2016. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a many-sided neurodevelopmental condition and is caused because of difficulties in social interaction, communication, and iterative behavior. ASD is increasingly predominant globally, touching roughly 2 in 100. If there is timely diagnosis and intervention, then there will be fewer problems. In recent years, AR and VR technologies have become one best option and novel means in the analysis and treatment of autism. Controlled environments that can imitate real-life social situations, contribution clinician's critical insights into the perceptions, and interactions of individuals with ASD in relation to their surroundings will be provided by AR and VR. These technologies assist customized intermediations, rendering them extremely adaptable to the distinct requirements of each individual. 2026 Scrivener Publishing LLC. -

The effect of hopeful lyrics on levels of hopelessness among college students
Hopelessness is a product of negative future expectations, negative feelings toward the future, and feeling a lack of control over future improvements. College students are seen to experience hopelessness. This study aimed to reduce levels of hopelessness in college students through an intervention that involved listening to songs having hopeful lyrics. The sample consisted of college students (N = 66), who were randomly assigned to three groups, namely the lyrics-music group, music-only group, and the control group (no intervention). The Becks Hopelessness Scale was used to measure their levels of hopelessness before the intervention and at the end of four weeks. The lyrics-music group and the music group participants were exposed to songs and instrumental tracks, respectively, twice a week, for four weeks. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test for related samples was used to analyze the effect of the intervention on levels of hopelessness. The KruskalWallis test was used to analyze the differences across the three groups. Results indicated that the lyrics-music group had a significant decrease in levels of hopelessness after the intervention. However, the music group and the control group showed no significant decrease. There was a significant difference between the three groups with regard to the difference score obtained from pre to post intervention. Thus, the evidence suggests that hopeful lyrics do have an effect on hopelessness and can be seen as differing from the functions of music alone. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
