Abstract Whole brain functional connectivity (FC) patterns obtained from resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) have been widely used in the diagnosis of brain disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Recently, an increasing number of studies have focused on employing deep learning techniques to analyze FC patterns for brain disease classification. However, the high dimensionality of the FC features and the interpretation of deep learning results are issues that need to be addressed in the FC-based brain disease classification. In this paper, we proposed a multi-scale attention-based deep neural network (MSA-DNN) model to classify FC… More >

Abstract Due to the difficulties of brain tumor segmentation, this paper proposes a strategy for extracting brain tumors from three-dimensional Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) scans utilizing 3D U-Net Design and ResNet50, taken after by conventional classification strategies. In this inquire, the ResNet50 picked up accuracy with 98.96%, and the 3D U-Net scored 97.99% among the different methods of deep learning. It is to be mentioned that traditional Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) gives 97.90% accuracy on top of the 3D MRI.

Abstract In the Smart Grid (SG) residential environment, consumers change their power consumption routine according to the price and incentives announced by the utility, which causes the prices to deviate from the initial pattern. Thereby, electricity demand and price forecasting play a significant role and can help in terms of reliability and sustainability. Due to the massive amount of data, big data analytics for forecasting becomes a hot topic in the SG domain. In this paper, the changing and non-linearity of consumer consumption pattern complex data is taken as input. To minimize the computational cost and… More >

Abstract In recent times, pattern recognition of communication modulation signals has gained significant attention in several application areas such as military, civilian field, etc. It becomes essential to design a safe and robust feature extraction (FE) approach to efficiently identify the various signal modulation types in a complex platform. Several works have derived new techniques to extract the feature parameters namely instant features, fractal features, and so on. In addition, machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) approaches can be commonly employed for modulation signal classification. In this view, this paper designs pattern recognition of communication… More >

Abstract While the internet has a lot of positive impact on society, there are negative components. Accessible to everyone through online platforms, pornography is, inducing psychological and health related issues among people of all ages. While a difficult task, detecting pornography can be the important step in determining the porn and adult content in a video. In this paper, an architecture is proposed which yielded high scores for both training and testing. This dataset was produced from 190 videos, yielding more than 19 h of videos. The main sources for the content were from YouTube, movies, More >

Abstract The detection of the objects in the ariel image has a significant impact on the field of parking space management, traffic management activities and surveillance systems. Traditional vehicle detection algorithms have some limitations as these algorithms are not working with the complex background and with the small size of object in bigger scenes. It is observed that researchers are facing numerous problems in vehicle detection and classification, i.e., complicated background, the vehicle’s modest size, other objects with similar visual appearances are not correctly addressed. A robust algorithm for vehicle detection and classification has been proposed… More >

Abstract Education acts as an important part of economic growth and improvement in human welfare. The educational sectors have transformed a lot in recent days, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an effective part of the education field. Almost every action in university and college, right from the process from counselling to admissions and fee deposits has been automated. Attendance records, quiz, evaluation, mark, and grade submissions involved the utilization of the ICT. Therefore, security is essential to accomplish cybersecurity in higher security institutions (HEIs). In this view, this study develops an Automated Outlier Detection… More >

Abstract Piwi-interacting Ribonucleic acids (piRNAs) molecule is a well-known subclass of small non-coding RNA molecules that are mainly responsible for maintaining genome integrity, regulating gene expression, and germline stem cell maintenance by suppressing transposon elements. The piRNAs molecule can be used for the diagnosis of multiple tumor types and drug development. Due to the vital roles of the piRNA in computational biology, the identification of piRNAs has become an important area of research in computational biology. This paper proposes a two-layer predictor to improve the prediction of piRNAs and their function using deep learning methods. The More >
