Abstract: A wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), also referred to as a sewage treatment plant or a water
reclamation facility, is a facility designed to treat wastewater and sewage from residential, commercial, and
industrial sources. Wastewater treatment (WWT) facilities are essential for maintaining the well-being of our
communities by safeguarding water supplies, maintaining public health, and minimizing environmental pol-
lution. The specific design and processes employed by a WWTP can change based on variables like the size of
the facility, the characteristics of the wastewater, and the required effluent quality standards. This paper pre-
sents the comprehensive technological review of PID, FLC, PLC, and MPC controllers for an industrial WWT
plant with advantages and disadvantages of the same and results are shown. In addition, this overview includes
Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the field of water treatment by enhancing model prediction and control
strategies.

Abstract: The advent of cloud computing has advanced tremendously in the realm of information technology,
resulting in a transformative influence on the IT sector. Cloud computing provides the provision and delivery of
services, software, and computing over the Internet. Due to the utilization of resources such as the virtualiza-
tion of servers, networks, and storage, as well as workload distribution through load-balancing processes, it
consumes a lot of power and energy. In this paper, we have defined the “Green IT component” which refers to
the utilization of energy-saving and environmentally friendly techniques within data centers and their compo-
nents as processing, storage, and network elements. This paper gives the concept of a “greener cloud” and its
implications for sustainability. We have examined various research papers discussing the challenges and oppor-
tunities associated with green cloud computing, with the application of green software-as-a-service models such
as desktop as a service, integration as a service, prognostic, and health management as a service.. Green cloud
technology ensures high performance and productivity through an energy-efficient approach, enabling busi-
nesses while also promoting a sustainable future for the planet. In future work, we will propose a new architec-
ture for a greener cloud for the utilization of different software-as-a-service models of delivery.

or WLANs, are critical and indispensable platforms for the future. They are employed in the military, health-
care, industry, and habitat for the purposes of tracking, monitoring, and regulating numerous applications.
However, anomalies that arise for a variety of causes, including node failures, reading mistakes, odd events, and
malicious attacks, have an impact on the quality of data that sensor nodes collect. Thus, before sensor data is
used to inform choices, anomaly detection is a crucial step in ensuring its quality.
We outline the difficulties in detecting anomalies in WSNs and the conditions that must be met in order to
create models that are both successful and efficient. Next, we examine the most recent developments in data
anomaly detection research in WSNs and group existing detection techniques into five major classes according
to the detection techniques used to create these techniques. Variations of the most advanced models in each
class are discussed, and their drawbacks are emphasized to give insight into possible future research directions.
In addition, the methods under assessment are contrasted and assessed according to how well they fulfill the
specified criteria. In conclusion, the overall constraints of existing methodologies are referenced and potential
avenues for future research are proposed and deliberated.

Abstract: In the world of computer vision and object detection, there’s a strong connection between these areas.
Object recognition is all about recognizing specific things in pictures and videos. But this paper goes a step fur-
ther than the usual methods of finding objects. It tries to understand images in more detail, like how our eyes
do. The work starts by looking at deep learning and well- known object detection systems like CNN, R-CNN,
and YOLO. These systems can typically find only a few objects in a picture, and they work best at distance of
5–6 meters. However, our new model is much better at this task and has an interesting feature it can even tell
you the names of the objects it sees using Google Translate. This is especially helpful for people with vision
problems because it helps them understand what’s around them better. In summary, the research combines
computer vision, deep learning, and real-time object recognition to enhance visual perception and offer valuable
assistance to individuals with visual impairments.

5 Investigating efficacy of emerging ICTs
for the Indian construction sector
Sanjay Pandeya and G. T. Thampib
Thadomal Shahani Engineering College Bandra(w), Mumbai, India
Abstract: The construction sector, being one of the least digitized and major contributors in developed or
developing economies faces lots of challenges. We see an opportunity for reorienting the sector with cutting-
edge information and communication technologies (ICTs) integration. The construction sector challenges
namely poor productivity, lower efficiencies, safety, and sustainability can be addressed by ICT adaptation. The
research objective is to investigate the efficacy of utilizing ICTs as a technological intervention for the Indian
construction sector. The methodology adopted in this research study encompasses a hybrid approach, combin-
ing qualitative interviews of industry professionals and quantitative analytics of data gathered from question-
naire survey of construction projects. The findings of the questionnaire survey highlight that we can harness
emerging digital technology in various construction tasks to overcome challenges of the sector, and also identify
numerous potential benefits of utilizing ICTs. Additionally, the study also explores the challenges and barriers
faced by stakeholders in the adoption and implementation of cutting-edge ICTs within construction companies.

7 Online and offline learning in
universities: A student’s dilemma
Ruchi Agarwala and Rahul Pradhanb
Department of Computer Engineering and Applications, GLA University, Mathura, Uttar Pradesh,
India
Abstract: The pandemic, heatwave brought life to a standstill, if not for older but for young ones and students
it brings things to a standstill, presenting a significant obstacle to humanity. However, online learning offers
flexibility, interaction, and cooperation. This article aims to compare and contrast the results of student surveys
and explore the differences between live online instruction and conventional classroom instruction, as well
as the future of education in universities and colleges. The study was conducted at several universities in the
Mathura region of Uttar Pradesh, India, with 150 participants selected from those enrolled in online and offline
university courses, aged between 16 and 40 years. The students were then asked to complete a detailed question-
naire. 58.95% of students mostly agreed with the question in the survey, while 36.69% disagreed. As per the
survey analysis, online learning seems to be more effective. It is concluded that traditional classroom teaching
has advantages for students, saves them time, and improves their academic performance in the current environ-
ment of the COVID-19 epidemic. Higher education institutions must collaborate to make these initiatives effec-
tive, especially by decentralizing educational teleconferences and granting access to surrounding institutions to
ensure that all students have reliable internet connectivity.

Abstract: This article delves into contemporary Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) designed for Unmanned
Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks, emphasizing authentication-based approaches. With UAVs playing pivotal roles
across sectors, securing their communications is paramount. Traditional IDS often falls short in UAV scenarios,
necessitating innovative strategies. The proposed IDS employs advanced authentication mechanisms, including
cryptography, biometrics, and dynamic key generation. Cryptographic techniques ensure secure key exchange,
while biometric authentication ties UAV activities to verified identities. Dynamic key generation, bolstered by
chaotic maps, enhances security, making it computationally challenging for attackers. Anomaly detection and
machine learning contribute to the IDS’s adaptability, distinguishing normal and malicious UAV behavior.
Simulated evaluations using tools like ns3 quantify system performance, with metrics like Packet Delivery
Ratio, Delay, and Overhead providing insights. This authentication-based IDS presents a robust solution for
safeguarding UAV network integrity, addressing unique security challenges in diverse operational scenarios.

Abstract: There are various security issues, challenges, and threats in wireless networks. In this paper, we review
recent work in this field that primarily addresses such issues and challenges. Different researchers have taken
various approaches to justify their research based on different parameters. Methods such as enhanced packet
delivery, residual energy, and link quality, on-demand link and energy aware dynamic multipath (O-LEADM),
Rate aware congestion control (RACC), Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM), Quadrature Phase Shift
Keying (QPSK), Network function virtualization (NFV), Software-defined network (SDN), hidden Markov
model (HMM), IDS, scalable and energy-efficient cluster-based anomaly detection (SEECAD) etc. are used to
identify jamming signal problems in fuzzy logic. The article discusses various issues and approaches covered by
many researchers in last few years paying close attention to wireless network-related topics.

Abstract: Data centers having optical nature are the heart of modern day communication. The data is rising
continuously and thus increasing the demand for more bandwidth. The current data center relies on the elec-
tronics thus producing lot of heat and for connecting them huge amount of cabling is required. To reduce copper
cabling, use of fiber optic technology with fiber cable was proposed, and optical components produce lesser heat
as compared to electronic devices. However, fiber cabling is still an issue. To deal the cabling and heat dissipa-
tion, free space optical communication can be a better choice. This paper, presents the cascadability analysis
of the free space optical wireless data centers. In this work line of sight links are considered for cascadability
analysis and bit error rate is evaluated for various distances.
Keywords: Bit error rate, data center, free space optical communication, line of sight

Data centres are the core of modern day
communication, and as the amount of data
kept in DCs grows, the size of the data cen-

heat released. As a result, it is now important
to develop a new communication paradigm

approach is challenging. At the beginning of this work, the fundamental basic concepts of (ML) machine learn-
ing and (DL)deep learning in different wireless networks are presented. Because of the constantly changing
network conditions present in many ad-hoc networks, preparing data collection and training with that data is
a particularly difficult process. In addition, this study gives an overview of several studies that used deep learn-
ing and machine learning techniques in a range of research areas, including networking, communications, and
dissipative settings. Finding possible issues and challenging tasks is the main objective of this survey activity.

Abstract: The landscape of dentistry is undergoing transformative changes, driven by the imperative for reform.
This literature review critically examines key themes in dental reform, focusing on policy changes, technological
advancements, patient-centered care, and public health initiatives within the field. The methodology employed
a systematic approach, selecting recent literature (2013-2023) from diverse sources, including peer-reviewed
journals and reports from reputable dental associations. Thematic analysis reveals challenges in the current
dental system, policy reforms promoting preventive care, technological innovations like digital imaging and AI
integration, the shift toward patient-centered care, and collaborative public health initiatives. The review incor-
porates prominent theories such as the Social Determinants of Health and the Biopsychosocial Model. Major
findings emphasize the impact of socioeconomic factors on oral health, the importance of preventive care, and
debates surrounding technological integration. By elucidating these aspects, this literature review contributes to
a comprehensive understanding of the ongoing reforms in dentistry and sets the stage for future research and
policy development.

Abstract: The exploration into leveraging deep learning (DL) to recognize false or deceptive information, com-
monly referred to as Falsehood, is a rapidly evolving field of study. Deep structure learning, a subset of artificial
intelligence employing algorithms to learn from extensive datasets, has exhibited promise in the detection of
counterfeit news. The dissemination of fake news poses potential economic, political, and social risks to soci-
ety, underscoring the growing need to develop effective methods for identification along with prevention. This
paper reviews recent studies employing DL techniques, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and
recurrent neural networks (RNNs), as well as a cross media approach, for the purpose of detecting fake news.
Additionally, it explores the use of word embedding models for converting script into vector representations
and delves into the datasets utilized for model learning. Furthermore, the paper discusses the incorporation of
attention mechanisms in conjunction with DL to process sequential data.

Abstract: Recent Developments in IOT Technologies (Review) with the increasing traffic in confidential data
being passed over networks, it becomes vulnerable to various security threats that can affect its confidentiality,
integrity and availability. Intrusion Detection System (IDS) helps to monitor and provide alerts in case of any
malicious activity on the network. Though many machine learning methodologies have had their successes in
the anomaly detection domain, very few attempt to reflect the sequential nature of network data. The authors of
this study explicitly apply a sequential methodology and choose to compare multiple models, including Random
Forests (RF) Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLP), and Long-, Short-Term Memory (LSTM) on the CIDDS-001 data-
set. Our evaluations show that the sequential detection is more effective than typical point-wise approaches. In
the experimental results, it shows that long short-term memory significantly outperforms in detection order-
dependent traffic data logs of tracing code-level anomalies with 99.94% accuracy and an F1-score of 91.66%.

Abstract: Aircraft identification via satellite images is difficult because of the variance in aircraft appearance,
size, orientation, reliable dataset, and complex backgrounds. This aircraft detection is mainly used for defense
and military purposes to keep enemies in check. Even though various state-of-the-art algorithms have been
proposed to address aircraft detection the lack of structured datasets makes it difficult to achieve high accu-
racy, speed, and efficiency. This study focuses on end-to-end processes from datasets, aircraft detection frame-
works, algorithms, and performance on various applications. It includes the steps to collect and process both
synthetic and satellite sensing images, and the inclusion of image augmentation techniques. It is observed that
the majority of existing works on aircraft detection are the variants of convolutional neural networks (CNNs).
The analysis is done on these approaches critically throughout our survey by emphasizing the data sets, the
design parameters, accuracy of aircraft detection model performance, and the research openings to address in
the future.

Abstract: The escalating utilization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks across various domains accen-
tuates the critical need for robust security protocols. UAV networks, being susceptible to diverse security chal-
lenges, especially Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks, require innovative authentication mechanisms to fortify
their defenses. Recognizing the limitations of existing methods, the proposed chaotic-map-based authentica-
tion system dynamically generates cryptographic keys, introducing a pioneering approach to counteract MitM
threats effectively. By harnessing the inherent unpredictability of chaotic maps, the system not only rectifies
current authentication shortcomings but also exhibits superior resilience against sophisticated MitM attacks.
Extensive simulations conducted using ns3 validate the proposed system’s computational efficiency and its
heightened defense mechanisms, solidifying its position as an advanced and effective security enhancement for
UAV networks in real-world scenarios.

Abstract: Sentiment analysis is a field of natural language processing (NLP) that determines the emotional tone
and attitude expressed in the content, whether it’s a text, audio, video, or social media post. This technology
has found in several domains, like marketing, social media monitoring and customer service. The goal of this
project is to develop a robust, adaptable, and real-time sentiment analysis system that can assess sentiments
and emotions across various data sources. Understanding the sentiment behind this data is essential for making
informed decisions, improving user experiences, and responding to trends in the digital age where individuals
and organizations are constantly bombarded with data in many different formats. The development of a multi-
modal sentiment analysis system that can process text, audio, social media posts, and live video streams is the
main goal of this project. This system should be able to identify subtle emotions and offer insightful informa-
tion in addition to determining basic sentiments (positive, negative, and neutral). For simple access to results, it
should be built with real-time monitoring features and an intuitive dashboard. In today’s digital environment,
sentiment analysis is crucial for various reasons.

Abstract: Global vehicle population is growing steadily, which makes it ever more harder to manage traffic. To
resolve this problem, advance traffic control techniques is developed to which V2V (Vehicle-to-Vehicle) com-
munication via VANETs (Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks) is proven as an efficient solution. VANET allows vehi-
cles to communicate within the network by using different routing protocols (Graph based, Broadcast based,
Multicast/Geographic and Group-based routing protocol). Given the fact of the importance of VANET rout-
ing protocols in intelligent transportation systems, a need for their evaluation and selection arises. This paper
concludes that the increasing traffic leading to greater complexity of global traffic management and stresses on
VANET being the most suitable technology for V2V communication. This paper presents findings related to
VANET services, and routing protocols, with an especial concentration on the Application-Oriented Dynamic
Vehicle (AODV) method applied for delay reduction. It also gives a comparative study of routing protocols
specifying the advantages and disadvantage each has in detail.

22 Securing the secrets of 5G: Mitigating
eavesdropping threats and enhancing
network integrity
Mamidisetti Saia
Applied Computer Science and Engineering, Lovely Professional University, Punjab, India
Abstract: 5G is a fifth-generation network that is intended to be more dependable, faster, and have a lower
latency than the past 4G network. It offers a more reliable connection, can connect more devices simultane-
ously, and operates on a higher-frequency spectrum that can carry enormous amounts of data. Although 5G
networks offer numerous benefits, their open network architecture renders them vulnerable to security threats.
This study discusses the serious security issues of eavesdropping, a passive attack that can provide unauthor-
ized access to private information, including financial and personal information. The integrity and secrecy of
5G networks are at serious risk because passive eavesdropping is difficult to detect. To solve this problem, we
thoroughly review the suggested fixes for guarding against eavesdropping attacks on 5G networks. This review
covers handover procedures, pilot signals, device-to-device, communication, user equipment itself, and other
attack vectors. The use of strong encryption, the establishment of secure communication protocols, and care-
ful network traffic monitoring to spot any unusual activity are key preventative steps to reduce the danger of
eavesdropping. We identified and assessed various eavesdropping solutions in this study, providing a thorough
analysis of their effectiveness and implementation.

and improving the broadcast signal quality.
Finally, they discovered that every data trans-
mission from the BS to the UT, regardless of
the location of the eavesdropper, was main-

Abstract: Crop prediction is crucial in modern agriculture, guiding decisions on resource allocation, plant-
ing schedules, and yield optimization. This study introduces a novel approach by integrating optimization
algorithms and machine learning classifiers, enhancing accuracy and adaptability. Genetic algorithms, particle
swarm optimization, decision trees, support vector machines, and neural networks collectively form a robust
predictive model. Evaluation metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, and ROC-AUC, showcase
superiority over existing models. Implications for agriculture include informed decision-making, resource opti-
mization, and increased resilience. The model’s impact on sustainable farming practices is significant, providing
a technological edge in precision agriculture. Challenges in model development, like data quality and computa-
tional complexities, are discussed. Future research should focus on enhanced interpretability, data augmenta-
tion, and exploring edge computing for more accessible and scalable crop prediction models.

24 Malaria detection using convolutional
neural networks: A deep learning
approach
Navin Kumar Agrawal
Department of Computer Engineering and Applications, GLA university Mathura, India
Abstract: Malaria remains an important worldwide challenge, with millions of cases reported annually, espe-
cially in resource-constrained regions. Effective treatment and disease management of malaria depend on a
prompt and precise diagnosis. In this work, we present a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based deep
learning method for malaria identification. Our research leverages a comprehensive dataset comprising thou-
sands of blood smear images collected from diverse malaria-endemic regions. We pre-process the images to
enhance their quality and ensure consistency across the dataset. We then employ a CNN architecture, trained
on this dataset, to automatically learn discriminative features from the blood smear images. The trained CNN
model demonstrates remarkable performance in malaria detection, achieving an accuracy of over 95% on a
hold-out test set. Moreover, our model exhibits high sensitivity and specificity, which are essential for reduc-
ing false positives and false negatives in the diagnosis of malaria. We compare our CNN-based approach with
traditional machine learning methods and highlight its superior performance.

Abstract: Efficient path finding for emergency vehicles is essential for saving lives by taking the optimal path
from source to destination point that takes less time and covered less area by avoid traffic and any obstacles.
The purpose of this paper is to compare three animal-inspired heuristic search algorithms—Sparrow, Monkey,
and Frog to optimize emergency vehicle routes. We examine their performance in terms of the length of their
path, the time it takes, and how well they adapt to obstacles. We use a grid-world simulation framework to
reproduce real-world scenarios, taking into account obstacles and dynamic environments. We evaluate the
effectiveness of different algorithms in balancing exploration and exploitation to find optimal paths through
extensive experimentation. By highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, they provide insight
into their applicability for emergency vehicle routing. In this paper, we mainly focus on effective routing algo-
rithms in urban areas, which is useful for optimizing path finding in emergency response systems.

(QoS). This research explores the implementation of LoRa-Based Multi-Hop Networks as a promising solu-
tion. LoRa (Long Range) technology’s long-range, low-power communication capabilities enable efficient data
transmission across extensive urban areas, enhancing connectivity and scalability. The proposed framework
leverages LoRa’s strengths to establish a robust, interoperable IoT ecosystem, ensuring high QoS despite the
heterogeneous nature of devices and dynamic networking environments. By integrating LoRa networks with
cloud computing, this study aims to optimize urban infrastructure management, offering insights into creating

Abstract: In today’s digital world, a strong website design is essential for effective marketing. Web mining tech-
niques have become essential tools for understanding how users behave and what they like, providing valuable
insights that can be used to improve website layouts. This research paper focuses on the use of web mining tech-
niques to optimize marketing websites. We examine various web mining approaches and discuss their benefits
and limitations for website development. The purpose is to show how web mining techniques can significantly
improve website design and effectively achieve marketing goals through SEO.

Abstract: In the modern era, cloud computing has become widely utilized across various sectors, including
information sharing in organizations, educational institutions, and military establishments. Its primary pur-
pose is to efficiently manage extensive data repositories. The key advantage of cloud computing lies in its ability
to provide ubiquitous and on-demand access to data, enabling users to retrieve information seamlessly from
anywhere and at any time. However, this convenience also raises security concerns, especially when dealing
with large volumes of data. To address this issue, this study introduces an innovative cryptographic algorithm
based on symmetric cryptography prin ciples. In the proposed algorithm, we implement the blockchain meth-
odology to encrypt and decrypt the data based on the symmetric key algorithm. This algorithm empowers users
with the knowledge of a confidential key, which is leveraged for both data encryption and decryption processes.
By executing these operations at the user end rather than within the cloud storage infrastructure, the proposed
method effectively strengthens data against diverse cyber threats. The proposed cryptographic approach fosters
enhanced transparency between users and cloud service providers, concurrently security vulnerabilities.

Abstract: Neuralink, founded by Elon Musk, leads in merging human brains with technology. Our unique
perspective complements and challenges existing paradigms. Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) hold profound
therapeutic potential, restoring mobility for those with spinal cord injuries through direct brain-computer com-
munication. BMIs offer groundbreaking hope, bypassing the visual pathway to potentially restore sight to the
blind, revolutionizing their lives. Our research extends beyond presenting BMI’s current state. We explore
a project reshaping BMI understanding, pushing boundaries. We also unveil a novel theoretical solution to
blindness, diverging from convention. This innovative framework promises a unique path to address visual
impairments, injecting excitement into the BMI narrative. In summary, our research provides a comprehensive
perspective on Neuralink and BMIs. It highlights their therapeutic potential for spinal cord injuries and curing
blindness. Moreover, it introduces fresh viewpoints and a novel theoretical solution, promising an engaging
journey through the evolving landscape of brain- machine interfaces.

Abstract: The honeypot method detects banned users and network intruders. The Honeypot software goal is
to create a method of spotting network intruders. This paper describes the honeypot methodologies to imple-
ment intrusion detection and prevention systems. The invaders are now being traced using an unprotected
network and an unused IP address, and various IP trapping tactics are being used. Here, a honeypot approach
is employed to identify and trap the target. Honeypots use real replicated operating systems on the deployed
network of the servers. Honeypots and honeynets are utilised as security tools to entice attackers into a trap
and gather valuable intelligence regarding their tactics, strategies, and goals. These tools can be set up on differ-
ent computer components, such as software, networks, servers, routers, and more. They are classified based on
their usage and level of interaction as production or research honeypots and high or low-interaction honeypots.
Honeynets, compared to a single honeypot, offer greater insight and observations. Honeypots and honeynets
can detect and investigate a wide range of attack vectors. These factors include the honeypot’s purpose, engage-
ment, reality, isolation, and the distinct goals, available resources, constraints, and challenges of each situation.

Abstract: With the goal to create a safer and more effective training environment, our recommended strategy
encompasses a learning- based structure entails identifying flaws perpetrated by individuals during autonomous
physical rehabilitation and exercises and gives substitutes for restoration. Instead of relying on rigid, empirical
tenets our design learns from accumulated data, enabling it to customize itself to the needs of each user. This
is accomplished by interpreting the user’s posture sequence using a graph convolutional network architecture,
which enables an exhaustive understanding of the connections between the body joint trajectories. We proposed
a dataset with a trio of physical activity regimens to gauge the efficacy of our approach. The outcomes were
quite encouraging, with our system accurately detecting concerns 90% of the time and effectively prescribing
remedial actions for 93.9% of those issues. This demonstrates that our learning-based approach can offer sig-
nificant assistance for individual training, which is greatly enhancing the security and efficiency of unsupervised
training sessions.

Abstract: The objective of this project is to ascertain the speed of a vehicle by utilizing data extracted from a
recorded video source. Traffic congestion is a prevalent problem in major cities across the globe. One poten-
tial approach for mitigating congestion levels is the use of improved traffic management techniques, which
may effectively regulate and control the number of vehicles present on roadways. The utilization of traffic
modeling enables the evaluation of the impacts of traffic management strategies before their actual applica-
tion on a specific route. Accurate monitoring of vehicle position and speed is essential for the proper calibra-
tion of traffic modeling parameters. The objective of this project is to provide a precise calibration procedure
utilizing recorded vehicle motion in a perspective view. The proposed methodology outlines the process of
camera calibration for the purpose of traffic simulation, with the objective of estimating the average speed
of vehicles. The software application is constructed utilizing the Python programming language and incor-
porates technologies like as openCV [1]. The generated video output provides a comprehensive examination
of the vehicle’s position track and average speed data. The experiment’s outcomes evaluate the precision of
vehicle position detection.

Abstract: This study introduces an intelligent surveillance system for real-time image captioning that uses power-
ful computer vision and natural language processing to describe surveillance photos. The method extracts high-
level features by encoding images with the residual network-101 pre-trained model in two steps. A long short-term
memory-based caption generation model employs these attributes and an attention mechanism that dynamically
focuses on important picture areas during text production. A beam search technique improves caption quality and
variety. The technique helps security experts and analysts understand surveillance photos better. By automating
visual data interpretation, providing descriptive textual annotations, and boosting surveillance situational aware-
ness, our technique improves picture captioning. Comprehensive assessments of varied picture datasets show that
our approach generates accurate, contextually appropriate, and fluent captions. Our intelligent surveillance system
empowers a variety of security and analysis tasks and provides a solid foundation for future research in intelligent
surveillance by bridging computer vision and natural language processing.

in India’s rural areas. However, the yield rate of crops is undesirable in India. Some challenges faced by farmers
are, dealing with uncertain climate, shortage of important minerals in soil due to soil erosion, and cultivating
without crop rotation. This paper proposes a crop recommender and crop yield prediction system for farmers
using machine learning algorithms. It is necessary to collect and preprocess a large amount of data, includ-
ing soil characteristics, weather patterns, historical crop yields, and specific crop requirements. Then using
this data, machine learning models are trained to forecast which crop would be best under particular factors.
Farmers input their local conditions using the system’s interface, and they will quickly obtain personalized crop

Abstract: Cloud is a model of computing various services such as storing data, and performing specific opera-
tions. Security is a major factor in the cloud. The information on the cloud can be easily destroyed by malicious
attacks. Cloud malware detection can be used to detect the various malicious files present in the cloud. In this
paper, our methodology centers on disassembling binary executables into opcode sequences and subsequently
transforming these opcodes into image representations. We employ convolutional neural networks to perform
a comparative analysis between the opcode images generated from the binary executable under examination
and those produced from established malware sample codes. The primary objective is to ascertain whether the
target binary executable contains malicious code, thus enabling effective malware detection. Our evaluation
primarily centers on the critical metric of accuracy. convolutional neural networks+, consistently deliver impres-
sive accuracy rates ranging from 93% to 97%. This underscores the superior performance and effectiveness of
our approach in comparison to existing alternatives.

become more advanced providing users with enhanced control and safety features. In this paper, we intend
an approach, to home protection that integrates motion discovery holder permission and a captcha-located
approach control plan. Once detected a notification is sent to the homeowner’s smartphone or device. The
homeowner can then view the camera feed. Decide whether to permit or deny access. If access is granted a

Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive examination of the challenges and corresponding solutions
associated with wireless sensor networks (WSNs), particularly focusing on energy constraints, communication
issues, network deployment, and security concerns. Through an in-depth analysis, it identifies the criticality of
energy efficiency due to the limited power resources of sensor nodes, especially in inaccessible environments.
Solutions such as energy harvesting from renewable sources and power-efficient communication protocols are
explored. The paper further delves into the intricacies of communication protocols, emphasizing the need for
adaptability and scalability to address the diverse requirements of WSN applications. It also discusses optimal
network deployment strategies that mitigate coverage issues and maximize energy utilization. Security is high-
lighted as a paramount issue, given the sensitive nature of the data handled by WSNs, and the paper outlines
various lightweight cryptographic measures and privacy-preserving techniques to safeguard against threats. A
case study on forest monitoring is presented to illustrate the real-world application of these solutions, showcas-
ing the effectiveness of energy-efficient protocols and adaptive strategies in extending the network’s lifespan
while ensuring robust performance. The paper concludes with insights into the future advancements expected in
WSN technologies, which promise to enhance their sustainability, autonomy, and security, further integrating
WSNs into the fabric of emerging Internet of Things.

Abstract: Understanding children’s personalities is crucial for their emotional and social development. This
study proposes an innovative approach for automatic personality assessment in children based on their emo-
tional speech patterns. An essential component of human conduct, emotions are crucial to the manifestation of
one’s individuality. Our research leverages advanced machine learning techniques to extract valuable insights
from children’s vocal cues, aiming to provide a non-invasive and efficient means of personality assessment.
From the voice data, linguistic and acoustic characteristics are retrieved, including pitch, intonation, and speech
rate. CNN and MFCC algorithms are used in the creation of the developed model. The developed system is
capable of accurately predicting personality traits such as extroversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, open-
ness, and neuroticism in children based on their emotional speech. Our results demonstrate promising accuracy
levels when compared to traditional personality assessment methods, showcasing the potential of this technol-
ogy in educational and clinical settings. This automated approach can aid educators, psychologists, and parents
in gaining deeper insights into children’s personalities, enabling more tailored support and interventions to
foster healthy development. The goal of automatic personality perception is to predict, using nonverbal cues,
the speaker’s behavior as viewed by the audience.

In this way, three sets of LSTM and GRU lay-

output from these layers. A flattening layer is
used to restructure the output from the recur-
rent layers into a format that a dense layer
can handle. Furthermore, the flattened layer’s
output is fed into the dense layer as an input.

Abstract: The world wide web has revolutionized interconnectivity, interweaving smart components into our
daily lives, homes, and critical infrastructure. However, this digital transformation has brought forth an emerg-
ing and complex threat landscape. This research explores the synergy of two potent cyber threats, namely the
Wormhole Attack and the Blackhole Attack, within the realm of IoT. Wormhole attacks involve the surrepti-
tious tunneling of data between distant points in an IoT network, potentially allowing malicious actors to
eavesdrop on, alter, or disrupt communications. On the other hand, Blackhole attacks involve the creation of
malicious nodes that attract data packets but intentionally drop or manipulate them. Both attacks exploit vul-
nerabilities in IoT communication protocols and can severely affect data integrity, privacy, and network perfor-
mance. IoT devices become increasingly integrated into our daily lives, and the security of these interconnected
systems takes on unprecedented importance. The convergence of Wormhole and Blackhole attacks serves as a
stark reminder that the IoT ecosystem is not immune to the tactics of sophisticated cyber adversaries.

Abstract: Harmful content on the internet poses a significant challenge to maintaining a safe and inclusive
online environment. To remove this issue, we propose a novel approach for harmful content classification,
combining the power of recurrent neural networks and pre-trained transformers. Specifically, we utilize gated
recurrent units (GRUs) for text preprocessing and bidirectional encoder representations from transformers
(BERT) for the final classification task. In the preprocessing stage, GRUs are employed to capture sequential
dependencies in textual data, allowing for the effective extraction of context-based features from the input text.
This preprocessing step is crucial for understanding the nuanced structure and context of potentially harmful
content, such as hate speech, cyberbullying, or offensive language. Subsequently, the pre-processed data is fed
into a fine-tuned BERT model for classification. BERT is a state-of-the-art transformer model that excels in
understanding the semantics of text, making it particularly well-suited for the nuanced and context-dependent
nature of harmful content detection. By leveraging BERT’s pre-trained contextual embeddings, we can effi-
ciently classify text into different categories of harm, including hate speech, harassment, or misinformation.
Our proposed approach is capable of handling multi-class classification, making it versatile for a huge range of
harmful content identification tasks. Furthermore, the combination of GRU-based preprocessing and BERT-
based classification offers a powerful and adaptable solution for detecting harmful content, contributing to the
ongoing efforts to create safer online spaces, and promoting responsible content moderation.

Abstract: The voice recognition community is currently paying more attention to “mispronunciation detection”.
This study interest and the focus of this work are primarily driven by two areas of application: speech recogni-
tion and language learning adaption. There are many Systems for CALL that use CAPT methods. This thesis
introduces a new text-dependent mispronunciation method based on AFCC for text. This approach is demon-
strated to perform better than the traditional HMM method based on MFCCs. To assist language learners in
recognizing and correcting pronunciation errors, a PCA-based system for mispronunciation detection and clas-
sification is also developed. Two projects have been investigated in order to improve voice recognition through
adaptation. As one method of making grammar-based name recognition adaptive, the initial one enhances name
awareness by teaching permissible variances when pronouncing names. The second project involves detecting
accents by looking at how fundamental vowels vary in speech with accents. It has been demonstrated that this
method, which detects accents using both acoustic and phonetic information, is effective with accented English.
To enhance name and speech recognition, these apps able to incorporated into a foreign phone system that is
automated. Based on a short speech sample, it estimates the accent of the caller. For better detection outcomes,
it moves away from the default switching from an accent-adaptive speech recognition engine once the type of
accents is identified.

46 Detection of melanoma using
DenseNet-based adaptive weighted loss
function
Rishi Agrawal
Department of CEA, GLA University, Mathura, India
Abstract: Skin cancer is currently the most prevalent and terrible disease on a global scale. Malignant mela-
noma (MM) is less common than other forms of skin cancer in terms of incidence, but it has the highest mor-
tality rate. Lesion removal can be used to treat MM when it is diagnosed at an earlier stage. However, the risk
of death increases if the diagnosis has been made later. So an early melanoma detection method is proposed
using the DenseNet-based Adaptive Weighted Loss function. The experimental work was performed on the
ISIC-2019 Dataset. The proposed model scored a balanced accuracy of 68.4% which is better than traditional
deep learning methods.

47 Advanced reconfigured solar arrays to
attenuate shading loss under partial
shading conditions: experimental

Vijay Laxmi Mishraa, Yogesh K. Chauhanb, and Kripa S. Vermac
Electrical Engineering, Kamla Nehru Institute of Technology, Sultanpur, Uttar Pradesh, India
Abstract: The traditional total cross-tied (TCT) model and an advanced permutation combination reconfigura-
tion (PCR) are employed to analyze the performance of the solar arrays under realistic partial shading condi-
tions (PSCs). The model uses a single-diode solar cell using the MATLAB/SIMULINK tool. The performance
indicators are evaluated to show the high potency of advanced PCR over TCT under various PSCs. Results
show that the advanced PCR has minimized the shading loss (SL) by 9.28% and 76.78% under lamp post-shape
shading and corner shading (CS) against TCT. Also, advanced PCR has maximized the global power (GP) by
14.55% which has been verified by a hardware prototype under CS. These outstanding results of the advanced
PCR support the practicality of the suggested technique (PCR).

Abstract: The field of quantum mechanics is yet to be explored fully but still has great applications particularly
in quantum information processing. The need of alliance of quantum mechanics and machine learning (ML)
is discussed. The speed up achieved in quantum computation is the main reason of looking forward to use
quantum mechanics to reduce time complexity in learning process. Quantum superposition seems to be able
to reduce sample complexity of ML algorithm by reducing number of examples required to learn a task. The
hurdles in this path and the possible techniques to conquer these are examined at the understanding level. The
main aspects of quantum ML are discussed.

Abstract: The current study targets to find a suitable machine learning (ML) model that helps in predicting
computer science students’ employability. Three different ML models have been implemented on the collected
data after consideration of six features. The data is collected from 210 students and the algorithms that have
been used are a Support vector machine, decision tree, and artificial neural network. Different performance
metrics have been used while implementing ML algorithms. The metrics that have been used are accuracy,
F1-score, precision, recall, and Matthew’s correlation coefficient (MCC). SVM has outperformed the other two
algorithms in the case of Accuracy, Recall, F1-score, and MCC. These values for SVM are 88.10%, 96.97%,
92.75% and 0.6159 respectively whereas for DT is 83.33%, 89.19%, 90.41% and 0.2701 and for ANN is
85.71%, 96.88%, 91.18% and 0.5705. It can be seen that SVM has outperformed the other two algorithms.
This study can be very beneficial to colleges and universities and will help them to put stress on only the features
that students are lacking for employability.

Abstract: Management of stray cattle population and control is an issue that has received extensive attention in
the past few years due to its effects on the health of the public, their safety, and the welfare of cattle as a whole.
This paper intends to provide an extensive review of the current breakthroughs in the perception of stray ani-
mal technologies and the employed methodologies used to achieve the same. It shall cover an expansive range
of techniques, including computer-vision based systems, approaches using sensor mechanisms and IoT, as well
as those making use of machine learning algorithms. Moreover, the paper discusses the challenges and future
scope of this field, outlining the requirement for interdisciplinary teamwork and innovative solutions to address-

Abstract: Sentiment analysis is a branch of natural language processing (NLP) that is essential to comprehend-
ing customer preferences, public opinion, and the emotional nuances found in textual data. This study explores
the complex field of sentiment analysis, using sophisticated NLP methods to identify and analyze sentiments
in a variety of textual datasets. This research paper offers a comprehensive grasp of sentiment analysis using
NLP, which will be beneficial to scholars, practitioners, and policymakers. This work opens the door for the
creation of more precise, trustworthy, and ethical sentiment analysis systems by tackling technical difficulties,
moral dilemmas, and domain-specific nuances. It also makes a substantial contribution to the field of NLP and
its applications in comprehending human feelings and viewpoints.

Abstract: Crop diseases substantially hinder agriculture, which has an impact on people’s capacity to support
themselves and the stability of the economy. In this investigation, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) were
used to develop a novel method for identifying the three potato plant diseases: late blight, early blight, and
healthy. The model demonstrated exceptional accuracy in identifying diseases. Viability assessments revealed
simple integration into existing systems at affordable implementation costs. Stakeholders acknowledged the
model’s value in decision-making and provided positive feedback. This study demonstrates how deep learning
models can improve overall agricultural health, effectively manage illnesses, and lower crop losses.

Abstract: Lung cancer remains the prime global demise inciting factor, especially with the highest mortality
rates since 1985. Detecting it early and accurately is crucial for improving patient survival chances. This study
conducts an approximate analysis of automated algorithms for early-stage respiratory tumor identification via
CT images. CT imaging is recommended for their effectiveness in revealing lung cancer nodules. The research
evaluates various approaches, utilizing data arrays like LIDC, ELCAP, LUNA-16, and AAPM. Segmentation,
feature extraction, neural system identification, and image pre-processing are all steps in the detection pro-
cess. It may be possible to improve accuracy and enable early-stage cancer prediction by placing emphasis on
ResNet-50 transfer learning models, which have demonstrated good accuracy in COVID-19 and breast cancer
detection. This finding could revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer by providing patients
with a more tolerable course for recovery.

Abstract: It offers the brief description of the novel work done in combining the cryptography with the deep
learning strategies for the purpose of ensuring the maximum security and immunity in the data hiding pro-
cesses executed on the images. The method outlined in this work capitalizes on the training abilities of neural
networks to learn statistical details from pictures that are obtainable in various environments. In this way, it
also obtains a higher data-hiding capacity within these photos, and at the same time, maintains a higher image
quality of the stego-image. The hidden data shows fairly good immunity to a number of assaults and trans-
formations; the examples showed quite a stability in compression, noise, and geometrical attacks. The used
method proves a high professionalism to hide the hidden information and, therefore, makes the steganalysis or
revealing the data by other unauthorized persons or software quite difficult. However, one must point out some
challenges that arise with neural network training like the fact that it is a highly computationally expensive
operation is one of the biggest challenges as well as the fact that parameters need to be selected properly. This
approach can be considered as effective for creating secure communication and can be implemented in several
domains such as military use, medical and financial spheres. As for the issues arising from the application of
the developed methodology, it is assumed that further studies will expand on the methodology effectively and
examine the problems related to its large-scale use.

Abstract: This paper focuses on the automated animal entry detection as an important factor in wildlife conser-
vation, agricultural practices, and security, for which CNNs are used. Based on the idea of deep learning and
obraz processing, the suggested approach can successfully recognize and sort animals in the captured photo
or video stream to save the ecosystems and protect people’s concerns. The structural design involves a CNN
model, which is well designed and fine tuned for the purpose of identifying the presence of animals. The method
also includes complex processing of the picture, which enhances the model’s stability when handling a range
of illumination conditions and backdrop issues. It employs a buena calidad dataset for training and evaluation.
It is evident that the CNN model assures an appropriate recognition of the animal presence in a given frame
including multiple animals due to the training carried out in the model to detect many types of animals. This
type of research reduces the likelihood of animals intruding and using electricity, water, etc. by letting com-
puter systems observe them and alert about potential danger without human input. The CNN-based method
described in the work can be considered as the potential response to the growing need in the efficient techniques
for the detection of animal infiltrations, which is the pressing issue for both, conservation of the species and
enhancement of security measures in various fields.

Abstract: This abstract provides a summary concerning the research manuscript entitled “Next-Generation
Smart Cities: Integrating Blockchain, IoT, Deep Learning, and Dingo Optimization,” delving into the amalga-
mation of cutting-edge technologies to revolutionize urban settings. Against the backdrop of swift urbaniza-
tion and the evolution of technology, embedding Blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), Deep Learning, along
with Dingo Optimization manifests as an essential strategy for cultivating smart cities that exhibit both intel-
ligence and resilience. The investigation articulates a prospective view where urban milieus adeptly assimilate
contemporary techniques to redefine urban living paradigms. The abstract outlines the manner in which the
security alongside transparency availed by Blockchain, the propensity for data production inherent to IoT, the
prowess in data scrutiny facilitated by Deep Learning, and the efficacy in resource allocation afforded by Dingo
Optimization conjoin to address complex urban challenges. Through the adoption of such strategies, smart
cities can potentially provide improved security, anticipatory analysis, data-driven resource management, and
optimized services for their inhabitants.

Abstract: This abstract presents a succinct summary of the research proposal entitled “Diagnosis of DR utiliz-
ing ML and DL Techniques.” The proposal aims to tackle the urgent matter of DR, which stands as a prominent
contributor to visual impairment in individuals with diabetes. The current diagnostic procedures employed in
traditional practices are characterized by a manual approach that is both labor-intensive and time-consuming.
Consequently, there is a growing demand for automated diagnostic solutions that can provide accurate results.
This study is to create a resilient model utilizing ML and DL methodologies in order to improve the effective-

Abstract: Rainstorms are sudden, intense rainfall situations that occur frequently over a very small area. The
mountainous regions are the most susceptible to rainstorms and cloudbursts. It helps us deal with the situation
effectively and improves weather prediction systems for rainfall. Hence, we evaluate these various prediction
methods as well as their theories and how each one worked in multiple circumstances. This project proposes
a novel approach to the rainstorm prediction system using machine learning and artificial intelligence. The
rainstorm prediction system is distinguished by its comprehensive data integration, cutting-edge technology,
machine learning algorithms, real-time monitoring, user-friendly interfaces, and cross-sector applications. So,

Abstract: This project investigates the active realm of Bitcoin price forecasting through the glass of machine
intelligence models, including Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machines (SVM), and XGBoost Classifier.
Leveraging a different dataset including historical and actual-occasion Bitcoin price dossier, the study employs
an orderly method for dossier collection, feature collection, model preparation, and judgment. The aim is to
embellish the veracity of short-term and unending forecasts, making the challenges posed apiece explosive cryp-
tocurrency retail. The project extends further hypothetical exploration, climactic in the incident of a convenient
web connect. This connects employs HTML, CSS, and Flask API to provide authentic-opportunity forecasts,
extending the gap betwixt leading predictive models and proficient uses.

Abstract: In today’s environment, artificial intelligence and machine learning are major players. They are used
in the medical fields as well as in self driving cars. A lost of patient data is produced by the medical industry, and
there are several ways to handle this data. Thus, we have developed a forecasting system proficient in identify-
ing numerous conditions forthwith with automated learning. Most of the current systems have poor accuracy
and can only forecast one disease at a time. Inaccurate results can gravely endanger a patient’s health. Heart,
liver, Parkinson’s, and diabetes are the four disorders we have currently considered; many more diseases may be
included in the future. The user needs to provide a number of parameters.

Abstract: Tomato plants, a globally essential crop, are susceptible to a wide range of diseases that can impact correctly.
both crop yield as well as quality. The early identification of these diseases is important for maintaining agri-
cultural productivity. Recently, deep learning (DL) models have gained prominence as a powerful tool for
automatic tomato leaf disease detection. This report offers a thorough examination of several DL approaches
used to address this important agricultural problem. An outline of the significance of tomato crops in world
agriculture as well as the numerous dangers they encounter, such as illnesses and pests, opens the review. It cov-
ers important discoveries and illness detection techniques. These studies use a range of DL models, including
transfer learning, Inception modules, and convolutional neural networks, to identify tomato leaf illnesses with
remarkable accuracy rates that frequently surpass 99%. Using publically accessible datasets, like Plant Village,
and optimizing model performance through data augmentation, regularization strategies, and hyper parameter
tuning are recurring themes in these works. In an effort to increase precision and lower computing complex-
ity, a number of research also investigate the application of hybrid models and feature selection techniques.
The analyzed research show that DL-based methods offer a promising way to protect agricultural productivity
worldwide by revolutionizing disease detection for other crops as well as tomato plants. To sum up, this exten-
sive analysis offers a clear grasp of the state of DL applications in tomato leaf disease detection at the moment.

Abstract: In the past few years, Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) have surfaced as a revolutionary innovation,
captivating the world’s attention by offering a novel way to tokenize and trade unique digital assets and col-
lectibles. This paper presents a comprehensive exploration of the development and implementation of a decen-
tralized NFT marketplace, underpinned by the power of blockchain technology. It harnesses a sophisticated
stack of cutting-edge technologies, including MetaMask, Truffle, Infura, ReactJs, Tailwind CSS, Ganache,
Solidity, Web3js, and Faucet. These technologies have been meticulously integrated to create an ecosystem that
prioritizes security, efficiency, and user-friendliness, redefining the way NFTs are bought and sold in the digital
realm. It delves into the intricate architectural design of the decentralized NFT marketplace, offering in-depth
insights into its underlying infrastructure and the intricate interplay of its constituent technologies. It meticu-
lously outlines the implementation process, illuminating the steps taken to transform this ambitious vision into
reality. The paper also candidly discusses the challenges encountered throughout the development journey,
providing valuable lessons learned.

Abstract: There is a rapidly growing push to combat e-waste a global dilemma having severe impacts on the
environment and human health. So, we are providing a solution to this using the MERN Stack: e-waste facil-
ity locator With this web application, users can search for e-waste facilities with criteria such as location and
e-waste type to recycle at a distance they are willing to travel. Developed at the Triple-I Lab, this locator will
help users easily recycle their e-waste and minimize the environmental impact of e-waste. This research is also
valuable for e-waste recycling centers, government authorities, and environmentalists. This e-waste facility
locator has to be optimized for such applications and will be a unique and original method in addressing the
problem of Disposal of e-waste can contribute significantly to reducing the environmental impact of e- waste
as a whole.

Abstract: The basic purpose of picture fusion is combining complimentary information from multiple pictures
into a single picture while maintaining the significant and necessary elements from each of the original picture.
The final picture is more suited for both human and machine perception and offers a more precise depiction
of scene than any of individual source pictures. Fusion at pixel level, one of three stages of picture fusion, is
typically used in practice due to preserving the original measured values. A transform-based approach is widely
used to do pixel level picture fusion; hence, the best picture fusion method to maximize productivity of the fused
picture is transform-based picture fusion. The most effective transform methodologies are Discrete Wavelet
Transforms (DWT), Discrete Cosine Transforms (DCT), and hybrid transforms (DWT with NSCT - Non-Sub -
Sampled Contourlet Transform). The merged picture of the deconstructed sub bands is produced using inverse
transforms. In this paper, the various transform techniques have been applied to perform the picture fusion
process. A relatively powerful transform technique, known as curvelet Transform, which is capable of multi-
resolution and multi-direction flexible breakdown and capture the essence of the picture for sub-sampled data,
has been also used for picture fusion. A detailed comparison of these transform techniques has been carried out
with respect to the following performance parameters: The Correlation coefficients, MSE (Mean Square Error)
and PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio), to evaluate the quality of a fused picture. Low MSE and PSNR ratio
are criterion of a high-quality fused picture. To analyze various transform techniques, fusions of two mode of
pictures, i.e., multimodel and multi-view, have been carried out and detailed comparison has been provided.

Abstract: This paper delves into the transformative shift from traditional databases to blockchain technology
motivated by challenges such as tampering and central control inherent in databases. Traditional databases
(e.g., relational databases) are structured in rows and columns while blockchain is structured as a chain of
blocks secured through cryptographic primitives. Blockchain technology has paved the way for developing more
practical solutions with its features, which include decentralization, security, and immutability etc. We intro-
duce traditional databases and blockchain technology focusing on the shift towards the later. A emphasis is also
placed on the pivotal role of consensus, a notable divergence that renders blockchain unique. Furthermore, we
discuss key consensus algorithms, their challenges, and the opportunities they present.

Abstract: The pervasive growth of social media platforms has brought about a surge in the creation of fake
profiles, posing significant challenges to online security, trust, and information integrity. With the exponential
rise of social media platforms, the prevalence of fake profiles has become a critical concern, leading to various
malicious activities and misinformation dissemination. The study encompasses a diverse range of approaches,
including machine learning algorithms, natural language processing, behavioral analysis, and network-based
methods. The review begins by outlining the motivations behind the creation of fake profiles, emphasizing the
potential harm they inflict on individuals, organizations, and the broader online community. Subsequently, it
delves into the various features and characteristics commonly exploited by researchers to distinguish between
authentic and deceptive profiles. These features encompass textual, visual, and behavioral attributes, revealing
the multidimensional nature of fake profile detection. This study focuses on the development and implementa-
tion of a robust fake social media profile detection system. Leveraging machine learning techniques, specifically
Convolution Neural Networks (CNN), the model is trained on a dataset comprising genuine and fake social
media profiles. Features including user names, gender classification, language usage, and profile statistics are
extracted and utilized to discern patterns indicative of fake profiles. The model’s performance is evaluated
through rigorous testing and validation, showcasing its efficacy in accurately identifying fake profiles. The
proposed detection system contributes to the ongoing efforts to mitigate the adverse impacts of fake profiles on
social media platforms, promoting a safer and more trustworthy online environment.

Abstract: This paper is a survey of recent research on prompted large language models (LLMs) as chatbot mod-
ules for long open-domain conversation. The document covers the following topics:
• The motivation and challenges of using prompted LLMs for open-domain dialogue, such as avoiding fine-
tuning, increasing flexibility, and enhancing reasoning abilities.
• The methods and techniques for creating and using prompted LLMs, such as prompting, instruction-tuning,
chain-of-thought, and external memory.
• The applications and challenges of prompted LLMs in different domains, such as dialogue, question answer-
ing, summarization, and reasoning.
• The future directions and open problems for prompted LLMs, such as improving their generalization,
robustness, efficiency, and ethics.
This paper also presents a systematic literature review (SLR) on the applications of LLMs for open-domain
dialogue tasks, following a rigorous methodology that includes literature search, data collection, data synthesis,
critical analysis, and comparison. The document aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-
art and the potential of prompted LLMs, as well as to inspire new research directions and collaborations in

Abstract: This research paper explores the integration of face and fingerprint recognition technologies in the
strategy and execution of a Smart Locking System, with a focus on enhancing security and user authentica-
tion. In an age where access control plays a pivotal role in ensuring the safety of both personal and commercial
spaces, the need for robust, user-friendly, and versatile solutions is paramount. Face recognition and fingerprint
recognition are two widely used biometric authentication methods known for their accuracy, uniqueness, and
non-intrusive nature. This paper investigates the benefits and challenges of incorporating both features within
a single smart locking system. In conclusion, this research paper underscores the significance of combining
face and fingerprint recognition for smart locking systems. By enhancing security and user authentication, this
multi-modal approach addresses the evolving needs of access control in a changing technological environment.

Abstract: The mental health stigma persists in society and refrains people from speaking up about their psy-
chological issues. They conceal their feelings and display a cheerful demeanor in front of others, convinced that
nobody will offer a listening ear or provide support. These individuals go in isolation to recharge themselves
mentally. They cannot comprehend their struggles as most of their words are considered excuses and juvenile.
We extend aid to them by proposing a mental health application that aims to foster their psychological health
using CBT Chatbot and the option to find a psychotherapist near their location. The operator can share his or
her feelings and get the right assistance. The paper critically reviews existing frameworks that utilize smart-
phones for mental health treatment, highlighting the innovative approaches and novel methodologies employed
in the application. The Android application presents a promising avenue for effectively managing mental health

Abstract: This study examines the changing field of health analysis and management, highlighting the need
for a thorough and integrated strategy to address the range of issues facing modern healthcare systems. Given
the fast improvements in technology, data analytics, and healthcare delivery, there is an urgent need for crea-
tive solutions to improve patient outcomes, optimize operations, and guarantee the sustainability of healthcare
practices. The study’s first part evaluates health analysis and management as it is today, emphasizing the short-
comings and inadequacies of the current system. In order to improve the precision and effectiveness of health
assessments, the study then presents a novel framework that combines artificial intelligence, sophisticated data
analytics, and personalized medicine. This framework not only addresses the diagnosis and treatment of dis-
eases but also places a significant emphasis on preventive strategies and proactive health management.

Abstract: A data distributor shared sensitive data with an aggregate that claimed to be trusted representatives
(third parties). If this data is later found in the public or private sector, it becomes difficult for the distributor to
identify the culprit. Traditionally, watermarking was used to control data leaks, but it requires data transforma-
tion and can be defeated by others. Therefore, modern methods of data distribution are used to increase the
chances of identifying a guilty third party. In this work, we propose a model of guilt that refers to users who do
not modify the original data distribution channels. The responsible party for the leak is someone who partially
distributed the data. The idea is to distribute data intelligently and explicitly for representation based on sample
data queries and data requests to improve the chances of discovering the guilty agent. Implementing algorithms
with fake products can also increase the distributor’s chances of finding the guilty party. It is worth noting that
reducing the sum value can increase the chances of identifying the guilty party. We present a framework for
generating fake objects.

Abstract: The landscape of dentistry is undergoing transformative changes, driven by the imperative for reform.
This literature review critically examines key themes in dental reform, focusing on policy changes, technological
advancements, patient-centered care, and public health initiatives within the field. The methodology employed
a systematic approach, selecting recent literature (2013-2023) from diverse sources, including peer-reviewed
journals and reports from reputable dental associations. Thematic analysis reveals challenges in the current
dental system, policy reforms promoting preventive care, technological innovations like digital imaging and AI
integration, the shift toward patient-centered care, and collaborative public health initiatives. The review incor-
porates prominent theories such as the Social Determinants of Health and the Biopsychosocial Model. Major
findings emphasize the impact of socioeconomic factors on oral health, the importance of preventive care, and
debates surrounding technological integration. By elucidating these aspects, this literature review contributes to
a comprehensive understanding of the ongoing reforms in dentistry and sets the stage for future research and
policy development.

Abstract: In proactive healthcare, machine learning for disease prediction is a game changer. This survey starts
by looking at the history of machine learning in healthcare, the context and the exponential growth of the field.
Then a range of machine learning algorithms for disease prediction are reviewed which are divided into super-
vised learning, unsupervised learning and other new techniques. The review looks at the strengths and weak-
nesses of each algorithm and its applications in different medical fields. The importance of privacy techniques
in health data analysis is also highlighted and data security and user confidentiality is stressed. But like any
frontier there are challenges. This survey is forward looking and identifies areas of research yet to be explored
and future directions in disease prediction through machine learning. In this summary, the essence of the field
is distilled but also real-world case studies of important disease prediction projects are brought to the fore.
These real-world case studies provide practical insights into methodologies, outcomes and benefits and add to
our understanding of the topic.

Abstract: Identifying missing persons and returning them to their families has become a universal problem. A
variety of research publications are reviewed in this paper. Each existing mechanism has advantages and disad-
vantages. However, the issues related to repatriation of missing persons are still not 100% resolved. Computing
technology has evolved in recent years and includes many variations that can be used in virtually every field.
Every day, significant numbers of people go missing around the world, including children, young people, the
mentally ill, and the elderly with Alzheimer’s disease. It is estimated that over 500 missing person concerns go
un-resolved in India every day. Facial recognition technology has become increasingly important over the past
decades. A facial recognition system is a computer application that uses digital images or video frames from a
video source to recognize or verify a person’s identity. This technology finds widespread use across different
industries and scenarios. Artificial intelligence has played a significant role in advancing facial recognition tech-
nology and solving modern-day problems. The proposed mechanism for facial recognition has been successfully
implemented, achieving 90% accuracy compared to 59% using ANN and 43% using SVM with PCA. This
system uses image segmentation, PCA, KNN, feature extraction, and SVM.

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) gadgets are subject to a number of protection vulnerabilities and attacks
because they are resource-constrained and diverse devices are networked to deliver multiple application tech-
nology. The functional design of a remote security management server is introduced in this project to improve
the protection and safe guard of IoT gadgets in the IoT ecosystem. The remote security management server inte-
grates and controls a variety of security functions in a systematic and integrated manner. As a result, numerous
infringement instances that may occur in the IoT environment may be avoided ahead of time, and harm can be
mitigated by enabling swift and effective responses even if a significant attack happens. We are using Raspberry
Pi for this project. For now, we are focusing on network security of interconnected-IoT devices from outer net-
work attacks such as “Man-In-The-Middle” attack and “Distributed Denial of service (DDoS)” attack. We are
further going to test our Openwrt firmware using Hping-active Network Security Tool.

Abstract: The discipline of bio-sciences has advanced to a more noteworthy level, and electronic health records
have made immense volumes of information. Thus, there is a squeezing need to produce data from this mon-
strous measure of information in this area of bio-sciences. Persistent kidney disease (CKD) is a problem wherein
the kidneys become harmed and can never again channel blood as proficiently as they once did. CKD can be
brought about by a family background of renal illness, over the top circulatory strain, or type 2 diabetes. This
is a drawn-out kidney issue with a high gamble of deteriorating over the long run. Heart issues, iron deficiency,
and bone diseases are genuinely predominant outcomes of kidney disappointment. Potassium and calcium levels
are raised. In the worst imaginable situation, absolute renal disappointment happens, surviving requires a kid-
ney relocate. Quick distinguishing proof of CKD can upgrade one’s personal satisfaction fundamentally. This
requires the improvement of a dependable expectation framework to distinguish CKD at a beginning phase. A
wide scope of AI methods have been utilized to foresee CKD. This review predicts CKD utilizing information
readiness, information change, and a few classifiers, as well as proposing the ideal CKD expectation structure.
The system’s demonstrate that Random Forest Classifier ut-performs other classifiers for CKD forecast.

Abstract: Due to the absence of a central network authority and decentralized communication among mobile
hosts, mobile ad hoc networks are susceptible to several security issues. A well-known threat is the black hole
attack, in which malicious nodes purposefully trash packets they receive from other nodes. The work aims to
determine packet-dropping reasons by monitoring the nodes in communication and then designing the mecha-
nism to mitigate the attack. The proposed work extends the existing secure knowledge algorithm to accurately
detect and minimize black hole attacks. The effectiveness of the proposed mechanism performance compared
with existing secure knowledge algorithms against black hole attack mitigation in MANETs. Experimental
results confirmed the improvement in the network’s overall security.

Abstract: The rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the digital landscape, transforming both con-
sumer behavior and marketing strategies across various industries. This research paper explores current trends
in digital marketing and their influence on consumer purchasing behavior, with a particular emphasis on the
pharmaceutical sector.
AI technologies, including natural language processing, machine learning, and predictive analytics, have
revolutionized the way businesses interact with customers in the digital landscape. The pharmaceutical indus-
try, known for its intricate regulations and demand for precision marketing, offers a compelling case to exam-
ine AI’s profound impact on marketing strategies. This study adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining
qualitative insights from consumers and industry experts with quantitative data analysis. Key objectives include
assessing the adoption of AI-driven marketing techniques in the pharmaceutical sector, analyzing the impact
of AI-powered personalized content delivery on consumer engagement, and understanding how these strategies
influence purchasing patterns. Findings reveal that AI-driven marketing has enabled pharmaceutical companies
to enhance consumer engagement through personalized content, increased targeting precision, and improved
customer service. Furthermore, it has expedited the product development and approval process, leading to a
more agile response to consumer demands. However, data privacy and ethics concerns have also emerged as
significant challenges. This study offers valuable insights into the transformative potential of artificial intelli-
gence in digital marketing, with a specific focus on its revolutionary impact in the pharmaceutical industry. The
implications of these findings extend to other sectors and underscore the importance of ethical AI utilization as
companies navigate the evolving digital frontier to meet consumer expectations and regulatory requirements.

Management, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India
Abstract: The increasing computational power has rendered deep learning algorithms highly potent, facilitat-
ing the effortless creation of convincingly human- synthesized videos, commonly known as deepfakes. The
potential misuse of such realistic face-swapped fake videos in scenarios involving political turmoil, fabricated
terrorism incidents, revenge pornography, and the blackmailing of individuals is readily foreseeable. In this
study, we present a novel deep learning-based approach designed to effectively discern AI-generated fake videos
from authentic ones. Our methodology excels at automatically identifying instances of replacement and reenact-
ment deepfakes. We aim to deploy Artificial Intelligence (AI) a s a countermeasure against Artificial Intelligence
(AI) manipulations A Res-Next Convolutional Neural Network is used by our method to retrieve frame-level
characteristics. These attributes are then employed to train a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) with Long
Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to classify videos depending on whether or not they have been altered, indicat-
ing their authenticity. We validate our approach using a large and heterogeneous dataset in order to simulate
real-time scenarios and improve the model’s performance with real data. The careful duration of this dataset
involves combining several pre-existing datasets, including Face-Forensic++, Deepfake Detection Challenge,
and Celeb-DF. Additionally, we demonstrate how our system can yield competitive results using a straightfor-
ward and robust approach.

Abstract: The Olympics, a global event with 200+ nations, highlights exceptional athleticism. This study, uti-
lizing Python for data analysis, explores factors influencing a nation’s Olympic success. Examining data from
1896 to 2016, we analyze athlete count, funding, and coaching quality. Visualizations reveal insights into
nations roles in the Olympics. Our findings link success to factors like athlete count, sports funding, and coach-
ing quality. This study deepens understanding of country performance, informing policies to enhance Olympic
results. Implications extend to policymakers and sports institutions, guiding tailored approaches for improved
performance. Adaptability emerges as crucial for sustained competitiveness over time. Acknowledging histori-
cal data constraints, future research could delve into qualitative cultural influences and recent Olympic Games
for contemporary trends.

Abstract: This research paper investigates the convergence of machine learning and the Internet of Things (IoT)
within modern agriculture, with the objective of improving agricultural practices to meet global food demands.
The study adopts a comprehensive exploration, employing a holistic approach to smart farming by integrating
insights from diverse sources. The incorporation of practical demonstrations highlights high-accuracy results
with specific machine learning algorithms, imparting a practical dimension to the research. A robust literature
review establishes the paper within the existing knowledge landscape. The paper underscores the significance
of data preparation for feature selection, encompassing aspects such as comprehensive data collection, meticu-
lous data cleaning, and normalization of numerical features. However, it is acknowledged that the discussion
on challenges faced in deploying machine learning in agriculture is somewhat limited. The paper concludes
by advocating for enhanced methodological discussions, more detailed quantitative insights, and a thorough
exploration of challenges and prospects. Despite certain weaknesses, this research significantly contributes to
the evolving field of agricultural machine learning, providing valuable insights for researchers, practitioners,
and stakeholders actively involved in shaping the future of smart farming.

Abstract: The crucial phase in the women’s life is pregnancy. Being healthy during pregnancy is essential for
a birth. Nowadays pregnant women often encounter many complications due to lack of proper guidance and
knowledge. This leads to an increase of miscarriages, premature births, and infant deaths. Healthy diet and

Abstract: Travel planning can be a daunting task, but it doesn’t have to be. There are various applications online
for booking hotels, rentals, and cafes and checking reviews and feedback. In this paper, we are proposing a
single platform with all the above-mentioned features a user needs while planning a vacation or tour. I-Tourism
Planner is a web application that revolutionizes the way customers plan and book their trips. With a sleek, mod-
ern, and intuitive interface, the platform offers an extensive range of features and services to meet the diverse
needs of the users. They can seamlessly search for hotels, vacation rentals, cafes, landmarks, and fun activities,
and check reviews and feedback all in one place. The platform integrates secure payment options and real-time
availability updates, ensuring a seamless booking process. With its comprehensive and user-centric approach,
the application aims to redefine how travelers discover, plan, and book their journeys, making travel arrange-
ments convenient, efficient, and enjoyable. Also, there is a customer relationship management feature where the
customer can send their queries and feedback which can be helpful in future development of the project. This

Abstract: The concept of blockchain was first presented by the mysterious person known only as Satoshi
Nakamoto in a 2008 essay. It has applications in a number of domains, including data management, the Internet
of Things, and healthcare. In order to help a company make better business decisions, data management is the
act of obtaining, evaluating, safeguarding, and preserving information about an organization. Information
must be shielded from misuse and illegal access because it is commonly transferred throughout organizations
without the permission of the parties who submitted it. Therefore, in order to encourage user confidence,
organizations need to ensure that their systems are transparent.

Abstract: With the recent emergence of the notion of the “Internet of Things,” wireless sensor networks (WSNs),
or WLANs, are critical and indispensable platforms for the future. They are employed in the military, health-
care, industry, and habitat for the purposes of tracking, monitoring, and regulating numerous applications.
However, anomalies that arise for a variety of causes, including node failures, reading mistakes, odd events,
and malicious attacks, have an impact on the quality of data that sensor nodes collect. Thus, before sensor data
is used to inform choices, anomaly detection is a crucial step in ensuring its quality. We outline the difficulties
in detecting anomalies in WSNs and the conditions that must be met in order to create models that are both
successful and efficient. Next, we examine the most recent developments in data anomaly detection research
in WSNs and group existing detection techniques into five major classes according to the detection techniques
used to create these techniques. Variations of the most advanced models in each class are discussed, and their
drawbacks are emphasized to give insight into possible future research directions. In addition, the methods
under assessment are contrasted and assessed according to how well they fulfill the specified criteria. In conclu-
sion, the overall constraints of existing methodologies are referenced and potential avenues for future research
are proposed and deliberated.

consensus procedures, redundancy, and replication. By replicating data or services among several nodes, redun-
dancy through replication guarantees system availability, and consensus techniques allow nodes to concur on
the state of the system even in the event of a failure. The study also addresses the obstacles associated with fault
tolerance, such as resource consumption, consistency vs availability trade-offs, and the difficulties associated
with failure detection and recovery in distributed systems. It discusses the consistency, availability, and parti-
tion tolerance (CAP) theorem and how system design is affected by it, highlighting the necessity of making
trade-offs according to the demands of the system. Furthermore, cooperation between distributed nodes, the
difficulties in preserving consistency in duplicated data, and the function of fault tolerance in guaranteeing data
consistency are all covered in detail. In order to preserve consistency throughout the system, the study looks at a
number of coordination techniques, including distributed locking, transactional models, and dispute-resolution
techniques.

102 Predicting breast cancer risk: A machine

Department of Computer Engineering and Applications, GLA University, Mathura, India
Abstract: One of the most fatal diseases is breast cancer, which originate in breast cells. It majorly effects the
females worldwide, although it may also in male, though very less frequently. When cells in the breast tissue
begin to grow uncontrolled, breast cancer develops. It may occur in the connective tissue of the lobes, among
other areas of the breast. Breast cancer analysis and prediction have emerged as crucial components in the fight
against one of the most prevalent and life-threatening diseases affecting women worldwide. In the realm of
predictive modelling, machine learning algorithms have gained prominence. These models leverage a multitude
of patient data, encompassing demographic information, genetic markers, and histopathological features, to
forecast risk, treatment response, and survival outcomes. Personalized medicine, guided by these predictions, is
transforming the landscape of breast cancer treatment, optimizing therapeutic strategies for individual patients.

103 A multi-objective optimization
algorithm for fog computing with trust
and energy awareness
Ruchi Agarwala, Saurabh Singhalb, and Ashish Sharmac
Department of Computer Engineering and Applications, GLA University, Mathura, Mathura, Uttar
Pradesh, India
Abstract: Resource provisioning in fog computing is a crucial research area that focuses on optimizing resource
allocation and ensuring secure data transmission in Fog Computing Environments (FCE). The challenge lies
in balancing computational load, security, and energy efficiency, requiring an effective optimization algorithm
to address these multiple objectives simultaneously. A trust-based energy-aware secure load balancing and
resource provisioning framework in fog computing has been proposed, which incorporates methods such as
Fog Node Trust Computation, Trust Credibility Assessment, Allocation (DEER), Time-Constraint Energy
Minimum Problem (TCEMP), and the utilization of the Multi-objective MSA algorithm. The future potential
of this framework, utilizing a Multi-objective MSA algorithm, is in fog computing, potentially leading to wide-
spread adoption as a secure alternative to traditional cloud computing.

104 Pediatric brain tumor detection in MRI:
A machine learning perspective

Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and IT, Integral
University, Lucknow, India
Abstract: This study introduces early detection of brain tumors in children and focused on magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) characteristic of children brain tumors and to create an automated segmentation system that
might use machine learning techniques to separate and categorize tumors and compare the results with radi-
ologist diagnoses. Accurate and timely identification of brain tumors, especially in children, is paramount for
effective planning of treatment and improving patient welfare. The intricate structure of the developing brain,
coupled with the heterogeneity of tumor types, presents significant challenges for conventional diagnostic meth-
ods. This study introduces automated approach for the detection and generalization of brain tumors in children
using MRI and advanced machine learning algorithm. Artificial intelligence-automated tumor description for
pediatric gliomas would enable real-time volumetric assessment to support clinical decision-making, treatment
response evaluation, and diagnosis. Auto-segmentation algorithms for pediatric brain tumor are uncommon
and have not yet demonstrated clinical translation due to a lack of available data.

105 Enhancing trust in the social internet of
things (SIoT): A comprehensive review
Gyanendra Kumara and Anuradha Misrab
Amity School of Engineering and Technology, Amity University, Lucknow, India
Abstract: An essential mechanism that enhances sensor network security is trust management. In order to
develop smart nodes for social connections, the IoT-enhanced social networks combines the internet of things
(IoT) with social networks. Service requestors must evaluate service providers’ levels of trustworthiness in order
to deal with misbehaving ones. In order to lower the danger of being exposed to malicious nodes, this study
suggests a novel trust management method for the social internet of things (SIoT) that anticipates which service
providers will be the most dependable for each requestor. A new paradigm known as the SIoT has emerged as
a result of the IoT integration of social networking. Building trust between things is still important, though.
This work investigates an effective paradigm for context-aware trustworthiness inference, which distinguishes
between familiarity and similarity trust. While similarity trust may be determined using both internal and
external similarity trust, familiarity trust can be determined using direct trust and suggestion trust. and lastly,
design to solve data sparsity and cold start difficulties, identify reliable nodes, and extract latent characteris-
tics from SIoT-enhanced social networks nodes, a matrix factorization approach is employed. A field of study
called SIoT integrates social networks and the IoT. The SIoT allows things to communicate with each other as
customers or service providers based on their social behavior. It should be simple and reliable for these items to
find the services they are looking for. Objects that discriminate and do not enhance the quality of services are
seen as sensible behavior. To tackle this problem, A trust management system with discriminative awareness is
introduced for service delivery in socially enabled IoT.

Abstract: The early diagnosis of plant diseases is essential for maximizing crop output and quality since the
agriculture sector is critical to guaranteeing global food security. A key issue in agriculture is leaf disease, which
can result in large losses in agricultural productivity. Deep learning algorithms have been utilized more often
recently in identification and categorization. This study uses the cutting-edge object identification algorithm
YOLOv7 to provide a unique method for automated leaf disease diagnosis and is particularly suited for use in
precision agriculture because of its real-time and precise object identification capabilities. Popular object detec-
tion method YOLO (You Only Look Once) can identify and categorize things in the real world. This study
proposes a YOLO v7-based method for detecting leaf diseases. YOLO v7 utilizes a deep convolution neural
network (CNN) to automatically recognize and categorize leaf diseases in real time. To correctly identify the
illness types detected in the leaves, the system is trained using a sizable collection of plant photos. The YOLOv7
design is optimized to focus on identifying certain illness patterns, improving its accuracy.

Abstract: In this work, a computer-based detection (CADe) system for lung nodule early diagnosis was pro-
posed by using low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). Since the low dosage images are very challenging, the
proposed method preprocesses the raw data to enhance (increase) the contrast of them. Next is coarse-grained
deep learning feature extraction, where we evaluate multiple deep learning architectures (AlexNet, VGG16, and
VGG19 networks) for the same. To enhance the selected feature set a procedure based on one genetic algorithm
(GA) is used for learning the top importance factors in early detection. Then different categories of classifier are
evaluated to ensure a lung nodule can be detected by the models successfully. The system is evaluated using 320
LDCT images from fifty individual patients. DETECTION SYSTEMS PUBLIC INTERNETDataBase for the

Abstract: This project revolves around the implementation of a cutting-edge parking system utilizing Internet
of Things (IoT) technology. The system functions through an intricate network of sensors and devices, auto-
mating the parking process for efficiency and security enhancement. At its core, the system integrates IR sen-
sors to detect incoming vehicles, triggering servo motors to open the parking gate and allocate a slot for the
vehicle. When all parking slots are occupied, a clear indication is displayed on an LCD monitor, prohibiting
further entries until a space becomes available. Upon a vehicle exiting the parking area, the display dynamically
updates, signaling the availability of a slot. The project further ensures the security of the Arduino board by
incorporating measures against physical tampering. In the event of any unauthorized physical interference, the
IR sensor promptly activates a buzzer, emitting an alarm, fortifying the protection of the system. The entire
system is interconnected with a ThingSpeak account, facilitating remote access and monitoring capabilities for
users via smartphones or web interfaces through cloud integration. This seamless connectivity empowers users
to oversee parking availability and security status in real-time, enhancing convenience and peace of mind. By
harnessing IoT technology, this next-generation parking system not only optimizes parking management but
also prioritizes security measures, offering a comprehensive solution for modern parking infrastructure.

Abstract: The realm of cybersecurity undergoes constant evolution, characterized by an ongoing struggle
between malicious entities and defenders. Within this context, the identification of malicious Android applica-
tions emerges as a pivotal defense measure. This comprehensive review navigates the diverse landscape of meth-
odologies employed to detect and counteract these threats. The exploration encompasses three primary avenues
for detection: signature-based, behavior-based, and machine-learning approaches. Signature-based methods
rely on predefined patterns, behavior-based strategies scrutinize real-time actions and machine learning tech-
niques leverage data patterns. Each avenue is thoroughly dissected, shedding light on its strengths, limitations,
and evolving nuances. Delving further, the paper investigates the intricacies of feature extraction and selec-
tion, essential steps in preparing data for effective machine learning models. Feature extraction condenses raw
data, while feature selection hones in on the subset of attributes critical for distinguishing between benign and
malicious behavior. Lastly, the exploration extends to dynamic analysis and behavioral patterns, revealing the
importance of real-time scrutiny and the identification of anomalous behavior. This synthesis of methodologies
and techniques aims not only to encapsulate the present state of the field but also to pave the way for future
advancements in fortifying Android ecosystems against malicious intrusions.
