    Cyberbullying refers to the utilization of Social Media (SM) by individuals to engage in actions, such as humiliating, embarrassing, and defaming a target, all of which occur without any face-to-face contact. Recently, cyberflashing has emerged as an important conc ern on WhatsApp. However, previous research has neglected to address the issue of cyberflashing on SM platforms. Likewise, most of the existing works didn’t identify the harmfulness of cyberbullying content. Therefore, a novel PTS-GReLU-GRU-based model for classifying cyberbullying and cyberflashing on WhatsApp, with the prediction of levels of harmfulness, is proposed in this paper. Initially, cyber flashing images are taken, which are preprocessed to enhance the image quality and to remove unwanted information. Second, human presence in the image is detected using the YOLOv3 technique. The YCbCr color model analyzes the amount of skin visible in the image. Later, the image is annotated. In the meantime, cyberbullying, offensive texts, and hate speech data are preprocessed by NLP techniques. This preprocessed data is then merged using Dice’s Coefficient String similarity technique. The features are then extracted from the text and images. Thereafter, by employing I-CapSA, the best features of texts and images are selected. Likewise, the preprocessed data is given as input to the CS-Cyber BERT-based word embedding process. Eventually, cyberbullying and cyberflashing are classified with the help of a novel PTS-GReLU-GRU classifier and the level of harmfulness is predicted using the LE-ANFIS techniques. The experimental outcomes prove that the proposed model attained better accuracy and precision of 98.14% and 98.85%, respectively, thus outperforming all state-of-the-art methods.

    Several researchers have focused in recent years on improving the efficiency of abdominal diagnostics by segmenting colonoscopy images with machine learning techniques. Previously, colonoscopy images were manually segmented by experts in this field. This eventually became time-consuming work that was prone to human error. Advances in technology, such as increased computer power and the availability of libraries for manipulating colonoscopy images, enabled automated segmentation. In recent year, deep learning networks are using in medical segmentation field due to its versatility, high performance, high generalization capacity. Recently, new heights of effectiveness have been achieved in the process of medical image segmentation carried out by deep learning model. The process of medical image segmentation has been effectively improved by the application of deep learning models such as U-NET, RS-NET, and RS-NET++. In this study, we apply the benefits of U-Net, Bi-directional Conv-LSTM, and method of dense convolution. We applied these to the Kvasir-SEG and CVC-Clinic DB datasets and achieved the 0.92 and 0.93 dice coefficient respectively.

    Community structures are common features of many real-world networks, and community detection is necessary to understand how these networks are organized. Various approaches have been devised for community detection, with each providing varying degrees of both accuracy and structural understanding. One of them, the Label Propagation Algorithm, is so common because it is simple and computationally cheap. Nevertheless, it does not usually reach great modularity and yields inaccurate community counts and structures in real-world networks. This is mostly due to its naive criteria of selecting the neighbor nodes when it comes to label propagation. To tackle the issue, we developed an adjusted algorithm, which we call Embedding-based Label Propagation (ELP), a hybrid between LPA and node embedding that allows us to combine both local connectivity and global structural data. ELP update step takes into consideration not only the local neighborhood, as in conventional LPA, but also embedding-based similarities to inform more productive neighbor selection. We tested ELP on popular benchmark datasets such as Karate Club, Dolphins, Football, Polbooks, and LFR synthetic networks and compared its results with LPA and other well-established algorithms. The empirical findings show that ELP can always perform better in modularity, NMI and NF1 scores, but it is also scalable to large and complex networks. These results can be used to identify ELP as an effective and powerful method of community-finding in real and artificial-world scenarios.

    Traffic congestion has become a persistent challenge in urban areas, leading to significant delays and economic losses. Several Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have been developed to address this issue, but traditional methods for traffic signal decision-making often fall short due to inefficiencies such as excessive delays and energy wastage. To overcome these limitations, this study presents a novel transfer learning-based Long Short-Term Memory-Generative Adversarial Network (TL-LSTM-GAN) model. The system optimizes traffic signal control for priority vehicles in both daytime and nighttime conditions. The proposed system improves traffic conditions, reduces congestion, and enhances energy efficiency by addressing the limitations of current methods. It leverages transfer learning through a ResNet-50 discriminator pre-trained on ImageNet to enhance feature recognition and decision accuracy. An experimental study was conducted using evaluation metrics to compare the performance of the TL-LSTM-GAN model with state-of-the-art methods, and the results demonstrate its superior effectiveness. This application underscores the model's potential to significantly reduce traffic congestion and energy usage, making it a valuable contribution to advanced metropolitan transportation systems.

    Colorectal cancer is responsible for a high proportion of cancer mortality. The most effective way to avoid colorectal cancer is to have a colonoscopy. However, not every polyp in the colon is prone to cancer. As a result, different techniques are employed to classify polyps. A video endoscopy can diagnose stomach ulcers, bleeding, and polyps. Doctors spend a lot of time reviewing medical video endoscopy images. The challenge of diagnosing images manually has spurred research into computer-assisted methods that can accurately and swiftly assess any created image. The suggested approach develops a framework for identifying digestive problems. The methods and treatment plan would be determined by the gastrointestinal state classification. In the present study, publicly accessible datasets, such as Kvasir, in used. In the Kvasir dataset, 5000 images are evenly distributed across five different digestive tract-related categories: ulcerative colitis, dye-lifted polyps, resection margins, normal cecum, and polyps. Preprocessing is done to improve the quality of the images and reduce the noise. These improved images were employed using deep learning networks. The present study proposes a stacking ensemble approach to boost the model's accuracy for prediction. The ensemble approach included five meticulously tuned deep convolutional neural network architectures, namely Xception, ResNet-101, VGG-19, EfficientNetB2v3, and MobileNetV2. These models were trained using weights obtained from the ImageNet dataset. Highest accuracy of 96.50% was achieved using meta models based on K-nearest neighbour (K-NN) method.

    COVID-19 pandemic is a situation where every person is looking for solution towards disease. Once a person tested positive for COVID-19, he/she has to get admitted in hospital or home isolation as per the available resources and guidance by doctors and local authorities. The hospitals are equipped with necessary requirements for patients, but home isolation requires various daily usage medical equipment, medicines and data reporting. Authorities are struggling a lot to supply medical aids and other required necessary items to be delivered at home isolation persons. For such type of pandemic situation, we have proposed a Medical Kit Delivery Drone (MKDD) algorithm to deliver medical aids, lightweight equipment and data reports from hospitals to home isolations. The proposed algorithm is very well simulated in CupCarbon simulator and obtained results are compared with state-of-the-art algorithms like M63P–H7DM, GHSP-D-19-00119, MedART & PMC9451063. We observed that our proposed algorithm achieved the highest date rate in payload delivery time, payload weight, speed & maximum distance covered by various drones.

    The development of automated methods for analyzing medical images of colon cancer is one of the main research fields. A colonoscopy is a medical treatment that enables a doctor to look for any abnormalities like polyps, cancer, or inflammatory tissue inside the colon and rectum. It falls under the category of gastrointestinal illnesses, and it claims the lives of almost two million people worldwide. Video endoscopy is an advanced medical imaging approach to diagnose gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory bowel, ulcerative colitis, esophagitis, and polyps. Medical video endoscopy generates several images, which must be reviewed by specialists. The difficulty of manual diagnosis has sparked research towards computer-aided techniques that can quickly and reliably diagnose all generated images. The proposed methodology establishes a framework for diagnosing coloscopy diseases. Endoscopists can lower the risk of polyps turning into cancer during colonoscopies by using more accurate computer-assisted polyp detection and segmentation. With the aim of creating a model that can automatically distinguish polyps from images, we presented a modified DeeplabV3+ model in this study to carry out segmentation tasks successfully and efficiently. The framework's encoder uses a pre-trained dilated convolutional residual network for optimal feature map resolution. The robustness of the modified model is tested against state-of-the-art segmentation approaches. In this work, we employed two publicly available datasets, CVC-Clinic DB and Kvasir-SEG, and obtained Dice similarity coefficients of 0.97 and 0.95, respectively. The results show that the improved DeeplabV3+ model improves segmentation efficiency and effectiveness in both software and hardware with only minor changes.

    Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers with a significant mortality rate. Colonoscopy is the primary colorectal cancer screening method since it reduces CRC mortality. Considering this, a dependable computer-assisted polyp identification and classification system has the potential to considerably increase colonoscopy efficiency. Automated diagnosis utilizes computer-aided ways to analyze all the results quickly and correctly. In this paper, we used the Kvasir-SEG dataset to classify gastrointestinal disorder. The Kvasir dataset contains 5000 images divided evenly into five gastrointestinal tract-related groups: normal cecum, polyps, ulcerative colitis, dye-lifted polyps, and colored resection margins. By updating Efficient Model B0 and applying it to B7, we achieved 97% testing accuracy.

    For real-time patient heart rate management, most widely used biomedical implantable devices in the cardiovascular system is the cardiac pacemaker (CP). A key factor in keeping the patient alive is the development of novel heart pacing techniques which can reduce the risk of cardiac arrhythmia. The present work is inspired to achieve this goal. To achieve an accurate, controlled, and regulated heart rate, a pacemaker with an intelligent proportional integral derivative (PID) controller is considered. The proposed PID controller is an integration of the traditional PID controller with appropriate tuning, that uses a swarm intelligence-based artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm for handling the bio-electrical signals. To ensure the efficacy of the proposed controller experiments are conducted. MATLAB/Simulink software is used to test and simulate the suggested model and to adjust the controller gains. The simulation is performed in the time and frequency domain. The resulting pulse rate from the ABC-PID controller has a rise time (0.0985 s), settling time (0.3293 s), maximum overshoot (0.111367%), and MSE (0.0040565). External disturbances of various duty cycles are also introduced in the proposed CP control system. The proposed ABC-PID controller for implanted pacemakers reduces the risk of heart rate over-run.

    Blockchain (BC) technology has overtaken Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) platforms. It is necessary to explore efficient implementation. Fault tolerance, decentralised control, authentication, cryptographic security, immutability, data integrity, and BC smart contracts are recommended IIoT features. If entities are authenticated and trusted, the internet can be used for industrial activities. Despite several methods, communication is insecure due to scalability, dependability, latency, insufficient transmission security, and uneven data loads. The paper created safe User authentication and optimal BC node selection using AFHENN (Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network) for IIoT to solve the problem. Mutual authentication, secrecy, and integrity protect user data. A registration process secures new User authentication. To protect registered data, it uses cryptographic methods like Transient key congruential generator based Elliptic curve cryptography (TKCG-ECC) and Dual keyed Cipolla's Extended Euclidean Algorithm based lattice cryptosystem (DKCEED-LC). To access BCN, the gateway verifies registered users utilising keyed-based Zero Knowledge of Proof (k-ZKP) and Approximation Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network-based Blockchain. Finally, Approximation Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network-based Blockchain networking authenticates data (AFHENN-BCN). The BCN avoids legal selection of miner nodes and harmful activities. Compared to top techniques, the proposed work achieves improved throughput and PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio) values with minimal computing time and strong security.

    Trajectory planning and obstacle negotiation rate are two fundamental problems in mobile robot locomotion. The proposed work addresses the problem of locomotion in mobile robots using Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN). The RBFNN controller initializes if the sensors detected obstacles inside the environment. The proposed RBFNN navigational control algorithm provides smooth and continuous steering angle commands to the robot using sensory reading. Distance received from the sensors for obstacle negotiation and the target-seeking rate is taken as the input parameter of the proposed control algorithm. The output of the control algorithm is the steering angle and optimum trajectory length toward the target. To show the results in terms of simulation, MATLAB and CoppeliaSim GUI platform has been used. To validate the simulation results, a real-time experiment has been proposed in the same environment. The error for path length and navigational time is less than 5% and has been recorded in terms of both environments (simulation and real-time experiment). The simulation and experimental results established the stability check for the proposed control algorithm.

    In the pay-per-click (PPC) model of online advertising, an advertiser pays an amount to the publishers for every click generated on the published advertisement, which results in click fraud. Click fraud is deliberate clicking by a publisher on the advert. The highly skewed class distribution of the dataset makes the identification of fraudsters more challenging for current machine learning methods. This work thus proposes a reliable click-fraud detection (CFD) system for the efficient investigation of fraudulent publishers. The proposed CFD system has many novel features. First, the problem of class imbalance is overcome using the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and random under-sampling (RUSBOOST). Second, a novel Hybrid-Manifold Feature Subset Selection (H-MFSS) is proposed to obtain optimal informative features. Third, the gradient tree boosting (GTB) model addresses the challenges encountered in investigating and classifying the behavior of fraudsters from balanced and optimally selected user-click data. Experiments are conducted on FDMA2012 mobile advertising user-click data in dual mode: with all features (original data and data sampled through data sampling methods); and with selected features (original data and data sampled through data sampling methods). Classification bias towards the majority class is avoided by evaluating the performance of the models using the average precision (AP), recall (SE), specificity (SP), and G-mean (GM) metrics rather than accuracy. The efficacy of the proposed GTB model is further evaluated by comparing the performance with 12 other conventional machine learning models. The empirical results prove that GTB generalizes well with an achieved AP score of 64.86% without sampling, 65.25% with RUSBoost and 66.78% with SMOTE using significant selected features. A significant improvement in the classification performance is achieved with the impact of sampling methods and selected optimal features.

    The colonoscopy is the most reliable method for monitoring the digestive tract. Colonography can detect a variety of conditions, including polyps in the colon. Despite advancements in technology, many colorectal polyps still go undetected in the early stages. When polyps are detected at an early stage, the severity of the disease can be mitigated with the use of polyp segmentation. Coherence transfer and contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization were two of the image pre-processing approaches used by the researchers in this work to address these issues. Following this, a U-Net based deep learning segmentation model was utilized to isolate the polyp in the image. Using a bottleneck attention module and a residual network, the BAMRes encoder-decoder component of the Unet framework's architecture is combined with feature concatenation on the same layer. With the publicly accessible Kvasir-SEG dataset, we were able to empirically validate the model, which yielded a dice coefficient of 92.27%.

    Robots in the medical industry are becoming more common in daily life because of various advantages such as quick response, less human interference, high dependability, improved hygiene, and reduced aging effects. That is why, in recent years, robotic aid has emerged as a blossoming solution to many challenges in the medical industry. In this manuscript, meta-heuristics (MH) algorithms, specifically the Firefly Algorithm (FF) and Genetic Algorithm (GA), are applied to tune PID controller constraints such as Proportional gain Kp Integral gain Ki and Derivative gain Kd. The controller is used to control Mobile Robot System (MRS) at the required set point. The FF arrangements are made based on various pre-Analysis. A detailed simulation study indicates that the proposed PID controller tuned with Firefly Algorithm (FF-PID) for MRSis beneficial and suitable to achieve desired closed-loop system response. The FF is touted as providing an easy, reliable, and efficient tuning technique for PID controllers. The most suitable ideal performance is accomplished with FF-PID, according to the display in the time response. Further, the observed response is compared to those received by applying GA and conventional off-line tuning techniques. The comparison of all tuning methods exhibits supremacy of FF-PID tuning of the given nonlinear Mobile Robot System than GA-PID tuning and conventional controller.

It has a highly nonlinear characteristic that includes complexities in its control and design. Dynamic performance is compassionate to change in system parameters which need more effort for planning a significant controller for CSTR. The reactor temperature changes in either direction from the defined reference value. It is important to note that the intensity of chemical actions inside the CSTR is dependent on the various levels of temperature, and deviation from reference values may cause degradation of biomass quality. Design and implementation of an appropriate adaptive controller for such a nonlinear system are essential. In this paper, a conventional Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller is designed. The conventional techniques to deal with constraints suffer severe limitations like it has fixed controller parameters. Hence, A novel method is applied for computing the PID controller parameters using a swarm algorithm that overcomes the conventional controller’s limitation. In the proposed technique, PID parameters are tuned by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). It is not easy to choose the suitable objective function to design a PID controller using PSO to get an optimal response. In this article, a multi-objective function is proposed for PSO based controller design of CSTR.

    In the next generation of computing environment e-health care services depend on cloud services. The Cloud computing environment provides a real-time computing environment for e-health care applications. But these services generate a huge number of computational tasks, real-time computing and comes with a deadline, so conventional cloud optimization models cannot fulfil the task in the least time and within the deadline. To overcome this issue many resource optimization meta-heuristic models are been proposed but these models cannot find a global best solution to complete the task in the least time and manage utilization with the least simulation time. In order to overcome existing issues, an artificial neural-inspired whale optimization is proposed to provide a reliable solution for healthcare applications. In this work, two models are proposed one for reliability estimation and the other is based on whale optimization technique and neural network-based binary classifier. The predictive model enhances the quality of service using performance metrics, makespan, least average task completion time, resource usages cost and utilization of the system. From results as compared to existing algorithms the proposed ANN-WHO algorithms prove to improve the average start time by 29.3%, average finish time by 29.5% and utilization by 11%.

    The algorithm works by dividing the nodes of a graph G into two groups; one is non-visited type of groups including the nodes that are not colored and visited type of groups including the nodes that are already colored and hence finds minimum number of colors that have been filled into visited nodes. An assumption is taken that k number of colors is already given, and the colors are selected from the same k colors. The proposed algorithm is implemented on random graphs along with some well-known graph coloring DIMACS benchmarks. In this research paper, an efficient graph color algorithm is proposed that uses a reduced number of colors for the well-known graph coloring problem. This projected algorithm can be applied to all types of graphs.

    Steganography plays a big role in secret communication by concealing secret information in the carrier. This paper presents a graph signal processing-based robust image steganography technique for posting images over social networks. In the embedding, we first obtained a scrambled version of the secret image using quantum scrambling. Next, we applied graph wavelet transformation on both the cover image and scrambled secret image followed by α (alpha) blending on both image signals (cover image signal and scrambled image signal). Finally, inverse graph wavelet transformation of the resulting image was undertaken to obtain the stego image. In this paper, the use of graph wavelet transformation improved interpixel correlation, which resulted in the excellent visual quality of both the stego image and the extracted secret image. Our experiments show that the picture quality of both the cover image and the stego image is exactly the same.

    Cerebrum signals can be acquired and broken down with various techniques, as represented in the paper. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are damaged by various conventional i.e. signals related to muscle action, eye development, and body movement, which have non-cerebral inception. The outcomes of such traditions are superior to that of the cerebrum’s electrical movement, so they cover the cortical signs of interest and bring a one-sided investigation. A few visually impaired source partition techniques have been created to expel ancient rarities from the EEG accounts. The iterative procedure for estimating detachment inside multichannel chronicles is computationally immovable in all cases. The curiosity segments require a tedious disconnected procedure except physically. The proposed work gives a curio expulsion calculation that depends on the authoritative connection examination (CCA) and Gaussian Mix-Model (GMM) to expand the nature of signs of EEG. In particular, EEG signs can be investigated utilizing various techniques, proposing a mix of strategies ideal for simplicity of automated examination and conclusion of epileptic seizures.

    Sleep stages classification avails the diagnosis and treatment of sleep-related disorders. The traditional visual inspection methods used by sleep-experts are time-consuming and error-prone. This framework proposes, an automatic sleep stages classification method based on optimize flexible analytic wavelet transform (OFAWT) for electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. In OFAWT, the parametric optimization is performed to obtain the most appropriate basis for the representation of EEG signals. The OFAWT parameters are selected by solving inequality constraints problem using the genetic algorithm. OFAWT decomposes EEG signal into band-limited basis or sub-bands (SBs). Time domain measures of SBs are used as features for the sleep stages EEG signals. The statistical significance of extracted features is assessed by multiple-comparison post hoc analysis of Kruskal–Wallis test, which ensures that reported features are statistically significant for the discrimination of sleep stages. The SB-wise features set is tested through the variants of decision tree, discriminant analysis, k-nearest neighbor, and ensemble classifiers for sleep stages classification. The ensemble classification model bagged-tree yields better classification accuracies for the classification of six to two sleep stages 96.03%, 96.39%, 96.48%, 97.56%, and 99.36%, respectively as compared to other existing methods.

    Graph coloring problem is a famous NP-complete problem and there exist several methods which have been projected to resolve this issue. For a graph colouring algorithm to be efficient, it ought to paint the input graph by minimum colours and must also find the solution in the minimum possible time. Here, we have proposed a different method to solve the graph coloring problem using maximal independent set. In our method, we used the concept of maximal independent sets using trees. In the first part, it converts a massive graph into a sequence of step by step smaller graphs by eliminating big independent sets from the initial graph. The second part starts by assigning a proper colour to each maximal independent set within the sequence. The proposed method is estimated on the DIMACS standards and presented reasonable outcomes concerning to other latest methods.

    Data deduplication refers to size reduction of data by eliminating data redundancy due to duplication. Possibility of duplication is high when size of data is huge. As the data especially digital data is growing drastically on the Internet due to emerging online ways of communication and interaction in various areas such as social media, banking, and marketing, the problem of duplicate data has become serious. There are various data deduplication techniques that can be used to reduce its size. Apart from reducing the required storage space this reduction may result into different adjoining benefits. For example, it saves device cost and time required for backup and archive when data is to be stored on secondary storage. In case of primary storage, it eliminates duplicate disk I/Os and thus reduce the time of program execution. When data is meant for cloud storage, deduplication reduces time for data uploading on WAN. When data is to be stored on virtual machine, it saves time for its migration. When data is on network, its size reduction reduces time of transmission and reduces redundancy for WAN optimization.

    Data deduplication (DD) approaches are used to eliminate redundant data from the existing data. It means that DD helps for the effective utilization of storage space and then reduces accessing time of data. It is regarded as a propitious approach to manage duplicate data. DD originally permits the uploading of exclusive data copy to the storage, whereas the succeeding copies (duplicates) are rendered with pointers to the genuine amassed duplicates. Nevertheless, numerous DD methods were posited and utilized; no particular best solution was developed to manage all sorts of redundancies. Every DD approach was created with dissimilar designs in addition to DD time-centered on performance together with overhead. Presume that the datasets have numerous duplicates for a file. In this scenario, the DD relates files devoid of observing at their content for a quick running time. Nevertheless, for similar files (not identical), DD approaches look within the files for verifying which portion of the file contents are existent (same) in the formerly saved data for effectually saving the storage space. Here various prevailing DD approaches are organized centered on granularity, deduplication’s location, and deduplication time. This work commences by clarifying the effective detection of redundancy utilizing hashing (chunk index) and bloom filters. After that, it illustrates how every DD approach functions.

    Since, channel assignment problem has been shown to be an NP-hard problem. Also, it is shown that the channel assignment problem is very similar to the graph k-color ability problem. But Graph k-Color ability (for k ≥ 3) Problem (GCP) is still a well known NP-complete problem. There are many approaches have been proposed to solve NP-complete problem, but none of the approaches could give the deterministic solution. One of the recent approach to solve NP-complete problem in deterministic way is Boolean satisfiability (SAT). Reduction between graph k-color ability problem to/from satisfiability expression can be a important concept to solve channel assignment problem in cellular network. For analyzing the behaviors of NP-Complete problems, in recent years, there has been much interest in study of phase transitions. Analytical and experimental research has shown that the "phase transition" phenomenon is often associated with the hardness of complexity. Each of the problems has a standard known phase transition. Previously, in [1] [2], we have reduced graph k-color ability problem to/from 3-satisfiability expression in polynomial way. In this paper, we analyzed and calculated the phase transition of systematically generated 3-colorable graph and 3-CNF-SAT expression by our reduction method of 3-SAT to/from 3-colorable graph. We observed that calculated phase transitions are lower than the know phase transition as well as phase transition obtained by Alaxander [3]. This lower phase transition shows that our reduction method is better than previously proposed methods to transform two NP-complete problems into each other more efficiently. © 2012 IEEE.

    In cellular network, the frequency spectrum has become an important resource for communication services; since nowadays numbers of cellular users are rapidly increasing but available frequency spectrum is limited. Therefore, there is need of a proper channel assignment approach by which co-channel interference could be minimized and reusability of channels could be maximized using the limited span of the frequency band while satisfying the communication quality constraints. Since, channel assignment problem has been shown to be an NP-hard problem. Also, it is shown that the channel assignment problem is very similar to the graph k-colorability problem. But Graph k-Colorability (for k ≥ 3) Problem (GCP) is a well known NP-Complete problem. There are many approaches has been proposed to solve graph k-colorability and one of the recent approach is propositional satisfiability (SAT). In this paper, we reduce the channel assignment problem in cellular network to 3-satisfiability (3-CNF-SAT) expression using graph k-colorability and also it is illustrated by a small instance of channel assignment in cellular network. Our reduction formulation generates the 3-CNF-SAT formula corresponding to any channel assignment instance in polynomial time. © 2012 IEEE.

    Graph Colorability Problem (GCP) is a well known NP-Complete problem consisting on finding the k minimum number of colors to paint the vertexes of a graph in such a way that two adjacent vertexes joined by an edge has always different colors. GCP is very important because it has many applications; one of the great application in cellular network is channel assignment[16]. Efficiant Channel assignment is a big challange in cellular network. Here, a cellular network is modeled as graph[12], set of channels (colors) must be assigned to cells (vertices) while avoiding interference. Since, till now there are not any known deterministic methods that can solved a GCP in a polynomial time [1]. But with the help of polynomial solvability of 3-SAT [14], we can solved GCP into polynomial time. In this paper, we transformed GCP into a 3-CNF-Satisfiability Problem [1,13]. Further, we illustrate it by one of the instance of graph coloring, the 3-colorable graph into 3-CNF-SAT. © 2011 IEEE.

    Cyberbullying refers to the utilization of Social Media (SM) by individuals to engage in actions, such as humiliating, embarrassing, and defaming a target, all of which occur without any face-to-face contact. Recently, cyberflashing has emerged as an important conc ern on WhatsApp. However, previous research has neglected to address the issue of cyberflashing on SM platforms. Likewise, most of the existing works didn’t identify the harmfulness of cyberbullying content. Therefore, a novel PTS-GReLU-GRU-based model for classifying cyberbullying and cyberflashing on WhatsApp, with the prediction of levels of harmfulness, is proposed in this paper. Initially, cyber flashing images are taken, which are preprocessed to enhance the image quality and to remove unwanted information. Second, human presence in the image is detected using the YOLOv3 technique. The YCbCr color model analyzes the amount of skin visible in the image. Later, the image is annotated. In the meantime, cyberbullying, offensive texts, and hate speech data are preprocessed by NLP techniques. This preprocessed data is then merged using Dice’s Coefficient String similarity technique. The features are then extracted from the text and images. Thereafter, by employing I-CapSA, the best features of texts and images are selected. Likewise, the preprocessed data is given as input to the CS-Cyber BERT-based word embedding process. Eventually, cyberbullying and cyberflashing are classified with the help of a novel PTS-GReLU-GRU classifier and the level of harmfulness is predicted using the LE-ANFIS techniques. The experimental outcomes prove that the proposed model attained better accuracy and precision of 98.14% and 98.85%, respectively, thus outperforming all state-of-the-art methods.

    Several researchers have focused in recent years on improving the efficiency of abdominal diagnostics by segmenting colonoscopy images with machine learning techniques. Previously, colonoscopy images were manually segmented by experts in this field. This eventually became time-consuming work that was prone to human error. Advances in technology, such as increased computer power and the availability of libraries for manipulating colonoscopy images, enabled automated segmentation. In recent year, deep learning networks are using in medical segmentation field due to its versatility, high performance, high generalization capacity. Recently, new heights of effectiveness have been achieved in the process of medical image segmentation carried out by deep learning model. The process of medical image segmentation has been effectively improved by the application of deep learning models such as U-NET, RS-NET, and RS-NET++. In this study, we apply the benefits of U-Net, Bi-directional Conv-LSTM, and method of dense convolution. We applied these to the Kvasir-SEG and CVC-Clinic DB datasets and achieved the 0.92 and 0.93 dice coefficient respectively.

    Community structures are common features of many real-world networks, and community detection is necessary to understand how these networks are organized. Various approaches have been devised for community detection, with each providing varying degrees of both accuracy and structural understanding. One of them, the Label Propagation Algorithm, is so common because it is simple and computationally cheap. Nevertheless, it does not usually reach great modularity and yields inaccurate community counts and structures in real-world networks. This is mostly due to its naive criteria of selecting the neighbor nodes when it comes to label propagation. To tackle the issue, we developed an adjusted algorithm, which we call Embedding-based Label Propagation (ELP), a hybrid between LPA and node embedding that allows us to combine both local connectivity and global structural data. ELP update step takes into consideration not only the local neighborhood, as in conventional LPA, but also embedding-based similarities to inform more productive neighbor selection. We tested ELP on popular benchmark datasets such as Karate Club, Dolphins, Football, Polbooks, and LFR synthetic networks and compared its results with LPA and other well-established algorithms. The empirical findings show that ELP can always perform better in modularity, NMI and NF1 scores, but it is also scalable to large and complex networks. These results can be used to identify ELP as an effective and powerful method of community-finding in real and artificial-world scenarios.

    Traffic congestion has become a persistent challenge in urban areas, leading to significant delays and economic losses. Several Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have been developed to address this issue, but traditional methods for traffic signal decision-making often fall short due to inefficiencies such as excessive delays and energy wastage. To overcome these limitations, this study presents a novel transfer learning-based Long Short-Term Memory-Generative Adversarial Network (TL-LSTM-GAN) model. The system optimizes traffic signal control for priority vehicles in both daytime and nighttime conditions. The proposed system improves traffic conditions, reduces congestion, and enhances energy efficiency by addressing the limitations of current methods. It leverages transfer learning through a ResNet-50 discriminator pre-trained on ImageNet to enhance feature recognition and decision accuracy. An experimental study was conducted using evaluation metrics to compare the performance of the TL-LSTM-GAN model with state-of-the-art methods, and the results demonstrate its superior effectiveness. This application underscores the model's potential to significantly reduce traffic congestion and energy usage, making it a valuable contribution to advanced metropolitan transportation systems.

    Colorectal cancer is responsible for a high proportion of cancer mortality. The most effective way to avoid colorectal cancer is to have a colonoscopy. However, not every polyp in the colon is prone to cancer. As a result, different techniques are employed to classify polyps. A video endoscopy can diagnose stomach ulcers, bleeding, and polyps. Doctors spend a lot of time reviewing medical video endoscopy images. The challenge of diagnosing images manually has spurred research into computer-assisted methods that can accurately and swiftly assess any created image. The suggested approach develops a framework for identifying digestive problems. The methods and treatment plan would be determined by the gastrointestinal state classification. In the present study, publicly accessible datasets, such as Kvasir, in used. In the Kvasir dataset, 5000 images are evenly distributed across five different digestive tract-related categories: ulcerative colitis, dye-lifted polyps, resection margins, normal cecum, and polyps. Preprocessing is done to improve the quality of the images and reduce the noise. These improved images were employed using deep learning networks. The present study proposes a stacking ensemble approach to boost the model's accuracy for prediction. The ensemble approach included five meticulously tuned deep convolutional neural network architectures, namely Xception, ResNet-101, VGG-19, EfficientNetB2v3, and MobileNetV2. These models were trained using weights obtained from the ImageNet dataset. Highest accuracy of 96.50% was achieved using meta models based on K-nearest neighbour (K-NN) method.

    COVID-19 pandemic is a situation where every person is looking for solution towards disease. Once a person tested positive for COVID-19, he/she has to get admitted in hospital or home isolation as per the available resources and guidance by doctors and local authorities. The hospitals are equipped with necessary requirements for patients, but home isolation requires various daily usage medical equipment, medicines and data reporting. Authorities are struggling a lot to supply medical aids and other required necessary items to be delivered at home isolation persons. For such type of pandemic situation, we have proposed a Medical Kit Delivery Drone (MKDD) algorithm to deliver medical aids, lightweight equipment and data reports from hospitals to home isolations. The proposed algorithm is very well simulated in CupCarbon simulator and obtained results are compared with state-of-the-art algorithms like M63P–H7DM, GHSP-D-19-00119, MedART & PMC9451063. We observed that our proposed algorithm achieved the highest date rate in payload delivery time, payload weight, speed & maximum distance covered by various drones.

    The development of automated methods for analyzing medical images of colon cancer is one of the main research fields. A colonoscopy is a medical treatment that enables a doctor to look for any abnormalities like polyps, cancer, or inflammatory tissue inside the colon and rectum. It falls under the category of gastrointestinal illnesses, and it claims the lives of almost two million people worldwide. Video endoscopy is an advanced medical imaging approach to diagnose gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory bowel, ulcerative colitis, esophagitis, and polyps. Medical video endoscopy generates several images, which must be reviewed by specialists. The difficulty of manual diagnosis has sparked research towards computer-aided techniques that can quickly and reliably diagnose all generated images. The proposed methodology establishes a framework for diagnosing coloscopy diseases. Endoscopists can lower the risk of polyps turning into cancer during colonoscopies by using more accurate computer-assisted polyp detection and segmentation. With the aim of creating a model that can automatically distinguish polyps from images, we presented a modified DeeplabV3+ model in this study to carry out segmentation tasks successfully and efficiently. The framework's encoder uses a pre-trained dilated convolutional residual network for optimal feature map resolution. The robustness of the modified model is tested against state-of-the-art segmentation approaches. In this work, we employed two publicly available datasets, CVC-Clinic DB and Kvasir-SEG, and obtained Dice similarity coefficients of 0.97 and 0.95, respectively. The results show that the improved DeeplabV3+ model improves segmentation efficiency and effectiveness in both software and hardware with only minor changes.

    Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers with a significant mortality rate. Colonoscopy is the primary colorectal cancer screening method since it reduces CRC mortality. Considering this, a dependable computer-assisted polyp identification and classification system has the potential to considerably increase colonoscopy efficiency. Automated diagnosis utilizes computer-aided ways to analyze all the results quickly and correctly. In this paper, we used the Kvasir-SEG dataset to classify gastrointestinal disorder. The Kvasir dataset contains 5000 images divided evenly into five gastrointestinal tract-related groups: normal cecum, polyps, ulcerative colitis, dye-lifted polyps, and colored resection margins. By updating Efficient Model B0 and applying it to B7, we achieved 97% testing accuracy.

    For real-time patient heart rate management, most widely used biomedical implantable devices in the cardiovascular system is the cardiac pacemaker (CP). A key factor in keeping the patient alive is the development of novel heart pacing techniques which can reduce the risk of cardiac arrhythmia. The present work is inspired to achieve this goal. To achieve an accurate, controlled, and regulated heart rate, a pacemaker with an intelligent proportional integral derivative (PID) controller is considered. The proposed PID controller is an integration of the traditional PID controller with appropriate tuning, that uses a swarm intelligence-based artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm for handling the bio-electrical signals. To ensure the efficacy of the proposed controller experiments are conducted. MATLAB/Simulink software is used to test and simulate the suggested model and to adjust the controller gains. The simulation is performed in the time and frequency domain. The resulting pulse rate from the ABC-PID controller has a rise time (0.0985 s), settling time (0.3293 s), maximum overshoot (0.111367%), and MSE (0.0040565). External disturbances of various duty cycles are also introduced in the proposed CP control system. The proposed ABC-PID controller for implanted pacemakers reduces the risk of heart rate over-run.

    Blockchain (BC) technology has overtaken Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) platforms. It is necessary to explore efficient implementation. Fault tolerance, decentralised control, authentication, cryptographic security, immutability, data integrity, and BC smart contracts are recommended IIoT features. If entities are authenticated and trusted, the internet can be used for industrial activities. Despite several methods, communication is insecure due to scalability, dependability, latency, insufficient transmission security, and uneven data loads. The paper created safe User authentication and optimal BC node selection using AFHENN (Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network) for IIoT to solve the problem. Mutual authentication, secrecy, and integrity protect user data. A registration process secures new User authentication. To protect registered data, it uses cryptographic methods like Transient key congruential generator based Elliptic curve cryptography (TKCG-ECC) and Dual keyed Cipolla's Extended Euclidean Algorithm based lattice cryptosystem (DKCEED-LC). To access BCN, the gateway verifies registered users utilising keyed-based Zero Knowledge of Proof (k-ZKP) and Approximation Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network-based Blockchain. Finally, Approximation Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network-based Blockchain networking authenticates data (AFHENN-BCN). The BCN avoids legal selection of miner nodes and harmful activities. Compared to top techniques, the proposed work achieves improved throughput and PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio) values with minimal computing time and strong security.

    Trajectory planning and obstacle negotiation rate are two fundamental problems in mobile robot locomotion. The proposed work addresses the problem of locomotion in mobile robots using Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN). The RBFNN controller initializes if the sensors detected obstacles inside the environment. The proposed RBFNN navigational control algorithm provides smooth and continuous steering angle commands to the robot using sensory reading. Distance received from the sensors for obstacle negotiation and the target-seeking rate is taken as the input parameter of the proposed control algorithm. The output of the control algorithm is the steering angle and optimum trajectory length toward the target. To show the results in terms of simulation, MATLAB and CoppeliaSim GUI platform has been used. To validate the simulation results, a real-time experiment has been proposed in the same environment. The error for path length and navigational time is less than 5% and has been recorded in terms of both environments (simulation and real-time experiment). The simulation and experimental results established the stability check for the proposed control algorithm.

    In the pay-per-click (PPC) model of online advertising, an advertiser pays an amount to the publishers for every click generated on the published advertisement, which results in click fraud. Click fraud is deliberate clicking by a publisher on the advert. The highly skewed class distribution of the dataset makes the identification of fraudsters more challenging for current machine learning methods. This work thus proposes a reliable click-fraud detection (CFD) system for the efficient investigation of fraudulent publishers. The proposed CFD system has many novel features. First, the problem of class imbalance is overcome using the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and random under-sampling (RUSBOOST). Second, a novel Hybrid-Manifold Feature Subset Selection (H-MFSS) is proposed to obtain optimal informative features. Third, the gradient tree boosting (GTB) model addresses the challenges encountered in investigating and classifying the behavior of fraudsters from balanced and optimally selected user-click data. Experiments are conducted on FDMA2012 mobile advertising user-click data in dual mode: with all features (original data and data sampled through data sampling methods); and with selected features (original data and data sampled through data sampling methods). Classification bias towards the majority class is avoided by evaluating the performance of the models using the average precision (AP), recall (SE), specificity (SP), and G-mean (GM) metrics rather than accuracy. The efficacy of the proposed GTB model is further evaluated by comparing the performance with 12 other conventional machine learning models. The empirical results prove that GTB generalizes well with an achieved AP score of 64.86% without sampling, 65.25% with RUSBoost and 66.78% with SMOTE using significant selected features. A significant improvement in the classification performance is achieved with the impact of sampling methods and selected optimal features.

    The colonoscopy is the most reliable method for monitoring the digestive tract. Colonography can detect a variety of conditions, including polyps in the colon. Despite advancements in technology, many colorectal polyps still go undetected in the early stages. When polyps are detected at an early stage, the severity of the disease can be mitigated with the use of polyp segmentation. Coherence transfer and contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization were two of the image pre-processing approaches used by the researchers in this work to address these issues. Following this, a U-Net based deep learning segmentation model was utilized to isolate the polyp in the image. Using a bottleneck attention module and a residual network, the BAMRes encoder-decoder component of the Unet framework's architecture is combined with feature concatenation on the same layer. With the publicly accessible Kvasir-SEG dataset, we were able to empirically validate the model, which yielded a dice coefficient of 92.27%.

    Robots in the medical industry are becoming more common in daily life because of various advantages such as quick response, less human interference, high dependability, improved hygiene, and reduced aging effects. That is why, in recent years, robotic aid has emerged as a blossoming solution to many challenges in the medical industry. In this manuscript, meta-heuristics (MH) algorithms, specifically the Firefly Algorithm (FF) and Genetic Algorithm (GA), are applied to tune PID controller constraints such as Proportional gain Kp Integral gain Ki and Derivative gain Kd. The controller is used to control Mobile Robot System (MRS) at the required set point. The FF arrangements are made based on various pre-Analysis. A detailed simulation study indicates that the proposed PID controller tuned with Firefly Algorithm (FF-PID) for MRSis beneficial and suitable to achieve desired closed-loop system response. The FF is touted as providing an easy, reliable, and efficient tuning technique for PID controllers. The most suitable ideal performance is accomplished with FF-PID, according to the display in the time response. Further, the observed response is compared to those received by applying GA and conventional off-line tuning techniques.

    CSTR (Continuous stirred tank reactor) is employed in process control and chemical industries to improve response characteristics and system efficiency. It has a highly nonlinear characteristic that includes complexities in its control and design. Dynamic performance is compassionate to change in system parameters which need more effort for planning a significant controller for CSTR. The reactor temperature changes in either direction from the defined reference value. It is important to note that the intensity of chemical actions inside the CSTR is dependent on the various levels of temperature, and deviation from reference values may cause degradation of biomass quality. Design and implementation of an appropriate adaptive controller for such a nonlinear system are essential. In this paper, a conventional Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller is designed. The conventional techniques to deal with constraints suffer severe limitations like it has fixed controller parameters. Hence, A novel method is applied for computing the PID controller parameters using a swarm algorithm that overcomes the conventional controller’s limitation. In the proposed technique, PID parameters are tuned by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). It is not easy to choose the suitable objective function to design a PID controller using PSO to get an optimal response. In this article, a multi-objective function is proposed for PSO based controller design of CSTR.

    In the next generation of computing environment e-health care services depend on cloud services. The Cloud computing environment provides a real-time computing environment for e-health care applications. But these services generate a huge number of computational tasks, real-time computing and comes with a deadline, so conventional cloud optimization models cannot fulfil the task in the least time and within the deadline. To overcome this issue many resource optimization meta-heuristic models are been proposed but these models cannot find a global best solution to complete the task in the least time and manage utilization with the least simulation time. In order to overcome existing issues, an artificial neural-inspired whale optimization is proposed to provide a reliable solution for healthcare applications. In this work, two models are proposed one for reliability estimation and the other is based on whale optimization technique and neural network-based binary classifier. The predictive model enhances the quality of service using performance metrics, makespan, least average task completion time, resource usages cost and utilization of the system. From results as compared to existing algorithms the proposed ANN-WHO algorithms prove to improve the average start time by 29.3%, average finish time by 29.5% and utilization by 11%.

    The algorithm works by dividing the nodes of a graph G into two groups; one is non-visited type of groups including the nodes that are not colored and visited type of groups including the nodes that are already colored and hence finds minimum number of colors that have been filled into visited nodes. An assumption is taken that k number of colors is already given, and the colors are selected from the same k colors. The proposed algorithm is implemented on random graphs along with some well-known graph coloring DIMACS benchmarks. In this research paper, an efficient graph color algorithm is proposed that uses a reduced number of colors for the well-known graph coloring problem. This projected algorithm can be applied to all types of graphs.

    Steganography plays a big role in secret communication by concealing secret information in the carrier. This paper presents a graph signal processing-based robust image steganography technique for posting images over social networks. In the embedding, we first obtained a scrambled version of the secret image using quantum scrambling. Next, we applied graph wavelet transformation on both the cover image and scrambled secret image followed by α (alpha) blending on both image signals (cover image signal and scrambled image signal). Finally, inverse graph wavelet transformation of the resulting image was undertaken to obtain the stego image. In this paper, the use of graph wavelet transformation improved interpixel correlation, which resulted in the excellent visual quality of both the stego image and the extracted secret image. Our experiments show that the picture quality of both the cover image and the stego image is exactly the same.

    Cerebrum signals can be acquired and broken down with various techniques, as represented in the paper. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are damaged by various conventional i.e. signals related to muscle action, eye development, and body movement, which have non-cerebral inception. The outcomes of such traditions are superior to that of the cerebrum’s electrical movement, so they cover the cortical signs of interest and bring a one-sided investigation. A few visually impaired source partition techniques have been created to expel ancient rarities from the EEG accounts. The iterative procedure for estimating detachment inside multichannel chronicles is computationally immovable in all cases. The curiosity segments require a tedious disconnected procedure except physically. The proposed work gives a curio expulsion calculation that depends on the authoritative connection examination (CCA) and Gaussian Mix-Model (GMM) to expand the nature of signs of EEG. In particular, EEG signs can be investigated utilizing various techniques, proposing a mix of strategies ideal for simplicity of automated examination and conclusion of epileptic seizures.

    Sleep stages classification avails the diagnosis and treatment of sleep-related disorders. The traditional visual inspection methods used by sleep-experts are time-consuming and error-prone. This framework proposes, an automatic sleep stages classification method based on optimize flexible analytic wavelet transform (OFAWT) for electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. In OFAWT, the parametric optimization is performed to obtain the most appropriate basis for the representation of EEG signals. The OFAWT parameters are selected by solving inequality constraints problem using the genetic algorithm. OFAWT decomposes EEG signal into band-limited basis or sub-bands (SBs). Time domain measures of SBs are used as features for the sleep stages EEG signals. The statistical significance of extracted features is assessed by multiple-comparison post hoc analysis of Kruskal–Wallis test, which ensures that reported features are statistically significant for the discrimination of sleep stages. The SB-wise features set is tested through the variants of decision tree, discriminant analysis, k-nearest neighbor, and ensemble classifiers for sleep stages classification. The ensemble classification model bagged-tree yields better classification accuracies for the classification of six to two sleep stages 96.03%, 96.39%, 96.48%, 97.56%, and 99.36%, respectively as compared to other existing methods.

    Graph coloring problem is a famous NP-complete problem and there exist several methods which have been projected to resolve this issue. For a graph colouring algorithm to be efficient, it ought to paint the input graph by minimum colours and must also find the solution in the minimum possible time. Here, we have proposed a different method to solve the graph coloring problem using maximal independent set. In our method, we used the concept of maximal independent sets using trees. In the first part, it converts a massive graph into a sequence of step by step smaller graphs by eliminating big independent sets from the initial graph. The second part starts by assigning a proper colour to each maximal independent set within the sequence. The proposed method is estimated on the DIMACS standards and presented reasonable outcomes concerning to other latest methods.

    Data deduplication refers to size reduction of data by eliminating data redundancy due to duplication. Possibility of duplication is high when size of data is huge. As the data especially digital data is growing drastically on the Internet due to emerging online ways of communication and interaction in various areas such as social media, banking, and marketing, the problem of duplicate data has become serious. There are various data deduplication techniques that can be used to reduce its size. Apart from reducing the required storage space this reduction may result into different adjoining benefits. For example, it saves device cost and time required for backup and archive when data is to be stored on secondary storage. In case of primary storage, it eliminates duplicate disk I/Os and thus reduce the time of program execution. When data is meant for cloud storage, deduplication reduces time for data uploading on WAN. When data is to be stored on virtual machine, it saves time for its migration. When data is on network, its size reduction reduces time of transmission and reduces redundancy for WAN optimization.

    Data deduplication (DD) approaches are used to eliminate redundant data from the existing data. It means that DD helps for the effective utilization of storage space and then reduces accessing time of data. It is regarded as a propitious approach to manage duplicate data. DD originally permits the uploading of exclusive data copy to the storage, whereas the succeeding copies (duplicates) are rendered with pointers to the genuine amassed duplicates. Nevertheless, numerous DD methods were posited and utilized; no particular best solution was developed to manage all sorts of redundancies. Every DD approach was created with dissimilar designs in addition to DD time-centered on performance together with overhead. Presume that the datasets have numerous duplicates for a file. In this scenario, the DD relates files devoid of observing at their content for a quick running time. Nevertheless, for similar files (not identical), DD approaches look within the files for verifying which portion of the file contents are existent (same) in the formerly saved data for effectually saving the storage space. Here various prevailing DD approaches are organized centered on granularity, deduplication’s location, and deduplication time. This work commences by clarifying the effective detection of redundancy utilizing hashing (chunk index) and bloom filters. After that, it illustrates how every DD approach functions.

    Since, channel assignment problem has been shown to be an NP-hard problem. Also, it is shown that the channel assignment problem is very similar to the graph k-color ability problem. But Graph k-Color ability (for k ≥ 3) Problem (GCP) is still a well known NP-complete problem. There are many approaches have been proposed to solve NP-complete problem, but none of the approaches could give the deterministic solution. One of the recent approach to solve NP-complete problem in deterministic way is Boolean satisfiability (SAT). Reduction between graph k-color ability problem to/from satisfiability expression can be a important concept to solve channel assignment problem in cellular network. For analyzing the behaviors of NP-Complete problems, in recent years, there has been much interest in study of phase transitions. Analytical and experimental research has shown that the "phase transition" phenomenon is often associated with the hardness of complexity. Each of the problems has a standard known phase transition. Previously, in [1] [2], we have reduced graph k-color ability problem to/from 3-satisfiability expression in polynomial way. In this paper, we analyzed and calculated the phase transition of systematically generated 3-colorable graph and 3-CNF-SAT expression by our reduction method of 3-SAT to/from 3-colorable graph. We observed that calculated phase transitions are lower than the know phase transition as well as phase transition obtained by Alaxander [3]. This lower phase transition shows that our reduction method is better than previously proposed methods to transform two NP-complete problems into each other more efficiently. © 2012 IEEE.

    In cellular network, the frequency spectrum has become an important resource for communication services; since nowadays numbers of cellular users are rapidly increasing but available frequency spectrum is limited. Therefore, there is need of a proper channel assignment approach by which co-channel interference could be minimized and reusability of channels could be maximized using the limited span of the frequency band while satisfying the communication quality constraints. Since, channel assignment problem has been shown to be an NP-hard problem. Also, it is shown that the channel assignment problem is very similar to the graph k-colorability problem. But Graph k-Colorability (for k ≥ 3) Problem (GCP) is a well known NP-Complete problem. There are many approaches has been proposed to solve graph k-colorability and one of the recent approach is propositional satisfiability (SAT). In this paper, we reduce the channel assignment problem in cellular network to 3-satisfiability (3-CNF-SAT) expression using graph k-colorability and also it is illustrated by a small instance of channel assignment in cellular network. Our reduction formulation generates the 3-CNF-SAT formula corresponding to any channel assignment instance in polynomial time. © 2012 IEEE.

    Graph Colorability Problem (GCP) is a well known NP-Complete problem consisting on finding the k minimum number of colors to paint the vertexes of a graph in such a way that two adjacent vertexes joined by an edge has always different colors. GCP is very important because it has many applications; one of the great application in cellular network is channel assignment[16]. Efficiant Channel assignment is a big challange in cellular network. Here, a cellular network is modeled as graph[12], set of channels (colors) must be assigned to cells (vertices) while avoiding interference. Since, till now there are not any known deterministic methods that can solved a GCP in a polynomial time [1]. But with the help of polynomial solvability of 3-SAT [14], we can solved GCP into polynomial time. In this paper, we transformed GCP into a 3-CNF-Satisfiability Problem [1,13]. Further, we illustrate it by one of the instance of graph coloring, the 3-colorable graph into 3-CNF-SAT. © 2011 IEEE.

    Cyberbullying refers to the utilization of Social Media (SM) by individuals to engage in actions, such as humiliating, embarrassing, and defaming a target, all of which occur without any face-to-face contact. Recently, cyberflashing has emerged as an important conc ern on WhatsApp. However, previous research has neglected to address the issue of cyberflashing on SM platforms. Likewise, most of the existing works didn’t identify the harmfulness of cyberbullying content. Therefore, a novel PTS-GReLU-GRU-based model for classifying cyberbullying and cyberflashing on WhatsApp, with the prediction of levels of harmfulness, is proposed in this paper. Initially, cyber flashing images are taken, which are preprocessed to enhance the image quality and to remove unwanted information. Second, human presence in the image is detected using the YOLOv3 technique. The YCbCr color model analyzes the amount of skin visible in the image. Later, the image is annotated. In the meantime, cyberbullying, offensive texts, and hate speech data are preprocessed by NLP techniques. This preprocessed data is then merged using Dice’s Coefficient String similarity technique. The features are then extracted from the text and images. Thereafter, by employing I-CapSA, the best features of texts and images are selected. Likewise, the preprocessed data is given as input to the CS-Cyber BERT-based word embedding process. Eventually, cyberbullying and cyberflashing are classified with the help of a novel PTS-GReLU-GRU classifier and the level of harmfulness is predicted using the LE-ANFIS techniques. The experimental outcomes prove that the proposed model attained better accuracy and precision of 98.14% and 98.85%, respectively, thus outperforming all state-of-the-art methods.

    Several researchers have focused in recent years on improving the efficiency of abdominal diagnostics by segmenting colonoscopy images with machine learning techniques. Previously, colonoscopy images were manually segmented by experts in this field. This eventually became time-consuming work that was prone to human error. Advances in technology, such as increased computer power and the availability of libraries for manipulating colonoscopy images, enabled automated segmentation. In recent year, deep learning networks are using in medical segmentation field due to its versatility, high performance, high generalization capacity. Recently, new heights of effectiveness have been achieved in the process of medical image segmentation carried out by deep learning model. The process of medical image segmentation has been effectively improved by the application of deep learning models such as U-NET, RS-NET, and RS-NET++. In this study, we apply the benefits of U-Net, Bi-directional Conv-LSTM, and method of dense convolution. We applied these to the Kvasir-SEG and CVC-Clinic DB datasets and achieved the 0.92 and 0.93 dice coefficient respectively.

    Community structures are common features of many real-world networks, and community detection is necessary to understand how these networks are organized. Various approaches have been devised for community detection, with each providing varying degrees of both accuracy and structural understanding. One of them, the Label Propagation Algorithm, is so common because it is simple and computationally cheap. Nevertheless, it does not usually reach great modularity and yields inaccurate community counts and structures in real-world networks. This is mostly due to its naive criteria of selecting the neighbor nodes when it comes to label propagation. To tackle the issue, we developed an adjusted algorithm, which we call Embedding-based Label Propagation (ELP), a hybrid between LPA and node embedding that allows us to combine both local connectivity and global structural data. ELP update step takes into consideration not only the local neighborhood, as in conventional LPA, but also embedding-based similarities to inform more productive neighbor selection. We tested ELP on popular benchmark datasets such as Karate Club, Dolphins, Football, Polbooks, and LFR synthetic networks and compared its results with LPA and other well-established algorithms. The empirical findings show that ELP can always perform better in modularity, NMI and NF1 scores, but it is also scalable to large and complex networks. These results can be used to identify ELP as an effective and powerful method of community-finding in real and artificial-world scenarios.

    Traffic congestion has become a persistent challenge in urban areas, leading to significant delays and economic losses. Several Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) have been developed to address this issue, but traditional methods for traffic signal decision-making often fall short due to inefficiencies such as excessive delays and energy wastage. To overcome these limitations, this study presents a novel transfer learning-based Long Short-Term Memory-Generative Adversarial Network (TL-LSTM-GAN) model. The system optimizes traffic signal control for priority vehicles in both daytime and nighttime conditions. The proposed system improves traffic conditions, reduces congestion, and enhances energy efficiency by addressing the limitations of current methods. It leverages transfer learning through a ResNet-50 discriminator pre-trained on ImageNet to enhance feature recognition and decision accuracy. An experimental study was conducted using evaluation metrics to compare the performance of the TL-LSTM-GAN model with state-of-the-art methods, and the results demonstrate its superior effectiveness. This application underscores the model's potential to significantly reduce traffic congestion and energy usage, making it a valuable contribution to advanced metropolitan transportation systems.

    Colorectal cancer is responsible for a high proportion of cancer mortality. The most effective way to avoid colorectal cancer is to have a colonoscopy. However, not every polyp in the colon is prone to cancer. As a result, different techniques are employed to classify polyps. A video endoscopy can diagnose stomach ulcers, bleeding, and polyps. Doctors spend a lot of time reviewing medical video endoscopy images. The challenge of diagnosing images manually has spurred research into computer-assisted methods that can accurately and swiftly assess any created image. The suggested approach develops a framework for identifying digestive problems. The methods and treatment plan would be determined by the gastrointestinal state classification. In the present study, publicly accessible datasets, such as Kvasir, in used. In the Kvasir dataset, 5000 images are evenly distributed across five different digestive tract-related categories: ulcerative colitis, dye-lifted polyps, resection margins, normal cecum, and polyps. Preprocessing is done to improve the quality of the images and reduce the noise. These improved images were employed using deep learning networks. The present study proposes a stacking ensemble approach to boost the model's accuracy for prediction. The ensemble approach included five meticulously tuned deep convolutional neural network architectures, namely Xception, ResNet-101, VGG-19, EfficientNetB2v3, and MobileNetV2. These models were trained using weights obtained from the ImageNet dataset. Highest accuracy of 96.50% was achieved using meta models based on K-nearest neighbour (K-NN) method.

    COVID-19 pandemic is a situation where every person is looking for solution towards disease. Once a person tested positive for COVID-19, he/she has to get admitted in hospital or home isolation as per the available resources and guidance by doctors and local authorities. The hospitals are equipped with necessary requirements for patients, but home isolation requires various daily usage medical equipment, medicines and data reporting. Authorities are struggling a lot to supply medical aids and other required necessary items to be delivered at home isolation persons. For such type of pandemic situation, we have proposed a Medical Kit Delivery Drone (MKDD) algorithm to deliver medical aids, lightweight equipment and data reports from hospitals to home isolations. The proposed algorithm is very well simulated in CupCarbon simulator and obtained results are compared with state-of-the-art algorithms like M63P–H7DM, GHSP-D-19-00119, MedART & PMC9451063. We observed that our proposed algorithm achieved the highest date rate in payload delivery time, payload weight, speed & maximum distance covered by various drones.

    The development of automated methods for analyzing medical images of colon cancer is one of the main research fields. A colonoscopy is a medical treatment that enables a doctor to look for any abnormalities like polyps, cancer, or inflammatory tissue inside the colon and rectum. It falls under the category of gastrointestinal illnesses, and it claims the lives of almost two million people worldwide. Video endoscopy is an advanced medical imaging approach to diagnose gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory bowel, ulcerative colitis, esophagitis, and polyps. Medical video endoscopy generates several images, which must be reviewed by specialists. The difficulty of manual diagnosis has sparked research towards computer-aided techniques that can quickly and reliably diagnose all generated images. The proposed methodology establishes a framework for diagnosing coloscopy diseases. Endoscopists can lower the risk of polyps turning into cancer during colonoscopies by using more accurate computer-assisted polyp detection and segmentation. With the aim of creating a model that can automatically distinguish polyps from images, we presented a modified DeeplabV3+ model in this study to carry out segmentation tasks successfully and efficiently. The framework's encoder uses a pre-trained dilated convolutional residual network for optimal feature map resolution. The robustness of the modified model is tested against state-of-the-art segmentation approaches. In this work, we employed two publicly available datasets, CVC-Clinic DB and Kvasir-SEG, and obtained Dice similarity coefficients of 0.97 and 0.95, respectively. The results show that the improved DeeplabV3+ model improves segmentation efficiency and effectiveness in both software and hardware with only minor changes.

    Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers with a significant mortality rate. Colonoscopy is the primary colorectal cancer screening method since it reduces CRC mortality. Considering this, a dependable computer-assisted polyp identification and classification system has the potential to considerably increase colonoscopy efficiency. Automated diagnosis utilizes computer-aided ways to analyze all the results quickly and correctly. In this paper, we used the Kvasir-SEG dataset to classify gastrointestinal disorder. The Kvasir dataset contains 5000 images divided evenly into five gastrointestinal tract-related groups: normal cecum, polyps, ulcerative colitis, dye-lifted polyps, and colored resection margins. By updating Efficient Model B0 and applying it to B7, we achieved 97% testing accuracy.

    For real-time patient heart rate management, most widely used biomedical implantable devices in the cardiovascular system is the cardiac pacemaker (CP). A key factor in keeping the patient alive is the development of novel heart pacing techniques which can reduce the risk of cardiac arrhythmia. The present work is inspired to achieve this goal. To achieve an accurate, controlled, and regulated heart rate, a pacemaker with an intelligent proportional integral derivative (PID) controller is considered. The proposed PID controller is an integration of the traditional PID controller with appropriate tuning, that uses a swarm intelligence-based artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm for handling the bio-electrical signals. To ensure the efficacy of the proposed controller experiments are conducted. MATLAB/Simulink software is used to test and simulate the suggested model and to adjust the controller gains. The simulation is performed in the time and frequency domain. The resulting pulse rate from the ABC-PID controller has a rise time (0.0985 s), settling time (0.3293 s), maximum overshoot (0.111367%), and MSE (0.0040565). External disturbances of various duty cycles are also introduced in the proposed CP control system. The proposed ABC-PID controller for implanted pacemakers reduces the risk of heart rate over-run.

    Blockchain (BC) technology has overtaken Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) platforms. It is necessary to explore efficient implementation. Fault tolerance, decentralised control, authentication, cryptographic security, immutability, data integrity, and BC smart contracts are recommended IIoT features. If entities are authenticated and trusted, the internet can be used for industrial activities. Despite several methods, communication is insecure due to scalability, dependability, latency, insufficient transmission security, and uneven data loads. The paper created safe User authentication and optimal BC node selection using AFHENN (Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network) for IIoT to solve the problem. Mutual authentication, secrecy, and integrity protect user data. A registration process secures new User authentication. To protect registered data, it uses cryptographic methods like Transient key congruential generator based Elliptic curve cryptography (TKCG-ECC) and Dual keyed Cipolla's Extended Euclidean Algorithm based lattice cryptosystem (DKCEED-LC). To access BCN, the gateway verifies registered users utilising keyed-based Zero Knowledge of Proof (k-ZKP) and Approximation Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network-based Blockchain. Finally, Approximation Fully Homomorphic encryption neural network-based Blockchain networking authenticates data (AFHENN-BCN). The BCN avoids legal selection of miner nodes and harmful activities. Compared to top techniques, the proposed work achieves improved throughput and PDR (Packet Delivery Ratio) values with minimal computing time and strong security.

    Trajectory planning and obstacle negotiation rate are two fundamental problems in mobile robot locomotion. The proposed work addresses the problem of locomotion in mobile robots using Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN). The RBFNN controller initializes if the sensors detected obstacles inside the environment. The proposed RBFNN navigational control algorithm provides smooth and continuous steering angle commands to the robot using sensory reading. Distance received from the sensors for obstacle negotiation and the target-seeking rate is taken as the input parameter of the proposed control algorithm. The output of the control algorithm is the steering angle and optimum trajectory length toward the target. To show the results in terms of simulation, MATLAB and CoppeliaSim GUI platform has been used. To validate the simulation results, a real-time experiment has been proposed in the same environment. The error for path length and navigational time is less than 5% and has been recorded in terms of both environments (simulation and real-time experiment). The simulation and experimental results established the stability check for the proposed control algorithm.

    In the pay-per-click (PPC) model of online advertising, an advertiser pays an amount to the publishers for every click generated on the published advertisement, which results in click fraud. Click fraud is deliberate clicking by a publisher on the advert. The highly skewed class distribution of the dataset makes the identification of fraudsters more challenging for current machine learning methods. This work thus proposes a reliable click-fraud detection (CFD) system for the efficient investigation of fraudulent publishers. The proposed CFD system has many novel features. First, the problem of class imbalance is overcome using the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) and random under-sampling (RUSBOOST). Second, a novel Hybrid-Manifold Feature Subset Selection (H-MFSS) is proposed to obtain optimal informative features. Third, the gradient tree boosting (GTB) model addresses the challenges encountered in investigating and classifying the behavior of fraudsters from balanced and optimally selected user-click data. Experiments are conducted on FDMA2012 mobile advertising user-click data in dual mode: with all features (original data and data sampled through data sampling methods); and with selected features (original data and data sampled through data sampling methods). Classification bias towards the majority class is avoided by evaluating the performance of the models using the average precision (AP), recall (SE), specificity (SP), and G-mean (GM) metrics rather than accuracy. The efficacy of the proposed GTB model is further evaluated by comparing the performance with 12 other conventional machine learning models. The empirical results prove that GTB generalizes well with an achieved AP score of 64.86% without sampling, 65.25% with RUSBoost and 66.78% with SMOTE using significant selected features. A significant improvement in the classification performance is achieved with the impact of sampling methods and selected optimal features.

    The colonoscopy is the most reliable method for monitoring the digestive tract. Colonography can detect a variety of conditions, including polyps in the colon. Despite advancements in technology, many colorectal polyps still go undetected in the early stages. When polyps are detected at an early stage, the severity of the disease can be mitigated with the use of polyp segmentation. Coherence transfer and contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization were two of the image pre-processing approaches used by the researchers in this work to address these issues. Following this, a U-Net based deep learning segmentation model was utilized to isolate the polyp in the image. Using a bottleneck attention module and a residual network, the BAMRes encoder-decoder component of the Unet framework's architecture is combined with feature concatenation on the same layer. With the publicly accessible Kvasir-SEG dataset, we were able to empirically validate the model, which yielded a dice coefficient of 92.27%.

    Robots in the medical industry are becoming more common in daily life because of various advantages such as quick response, less human interference, high dependability, improved hygiene, and reduced aging effects. That is why, in recent years, robotic aid has emerged as a blossoming solution to many challenges in the medical industry. In this manuscript, meta-heuristics (MH) algorithms, specifically the Firefly Algorithm (FF) and Genetic Algorithm (GA), are applied to tune PID controller constraints such as Proportional gain Kp Integral gain Ki and Derivative gain Kd. The controller is used to control Mobile Robot System (MRS) at the required set point. The FF arrangements are made based on various pre-Analysis. A detailed simulation study indicates that the proposed PID controller tuned with Firefly Algorithm (FF-PID) for MRSis beneficial and suitable to achieve desired closed-loop system response. The FF is touted as providing an easy, reliable, and efficient tuning technique for PID controllers. The most suitable ideal performance is accomplished with FF-PID, according to the display in the time response. Further, the observed response is compared to those received by applying GA and conventional off-line tuning techniques. The comparison of all tuning methods exhibits supremacy of FF-PID tuning of the given nonlinear Mobile Robot System than GA-PID tuning and conventional controller.

    CSTR (Continuous stirred tank reactor) is employed in process control and chemical industries to improve response characteristics and system efficiency. It has a highly nonlinear characteristic that includes complexities in its control and design. Dynamic performance is compassionate to change in system parameters which need more effort for planning a significant controller for CSTR. The reactor temperature changes in either direction from the defined reference value. It is important to note that the intensity of chemical actions inside the CSTR is dependent on the various levels of temperature, and deviation from reference values may cause degradation of biomass quality. Design and implementation of an appropriate adaptive controller for such a nonlinear system are essential. In this paper, a conventional Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller is designed. The conventional techniques to deal with constraints suffer severe limitations like it has fixed controller parameters. Hence, A novel method is applied for computing the PID controller parameters using a swarm algorithm that overcomes the conventional controller’s limitation. In the proposed technique, PID parameters are tuned by Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). It is not easy to choose the suitable objective function to design a PID controller using PSO to get an optimal response. In this article, a multi-objective function is proposed for PSO based controller design of CSTR.

    In the next generation of computing environment e-health care services depend on cloud services. The Cloud computing environment provides a real-time computing environment for e-health care applications. But these services generate a huge number of computational tasks, real-time computing and comes with a deadline, so conventional cloud optimization models cannot fulfil the task in the least time and within the deadline. To overcome this issue many resource optimization meta-heuristic models are been proposed but these models cannot find a global best solution to complete the task in the least time and manage utilization with the least simulation time. In order to overcome existing issues, an artificial neural-inspired whale optimization is proposed to provide a reliable solution for healthcare applications. In this work, two models are proposed one for reliability estimation and the other is based on whale optimization technique and neural network-based binary classifier. The predictive model enhances the quality of service using performance metrics, makespan, least average task completion time, resource usages cost and utilization of the system. From results as compared to existing algorithms the proposed ANN-WHO algorithms prove to improve the average start time by 29.3%, average finish time by 29.5% and utilization by 11%.

    Multiple-inputs and multiple-outputs (MIMO) referring to the fact that it is a wireless technology, which is used to transfer more data at the same time between transmitter and receiver to increase data rate and minimize errors. Basically, this concept is a type of technology for wireless networks that allows access points or wireless routers to have multiple antenna. In this paper, the basic patch antenna using coaxial probe feed and basic patch antenna using a microstrip line feed, which is fed by a microstrip line, were designed by using resonant frequencies of 2.45 GHz which is used for applications like industrial, scientific, and medical (ISM) band. The main objective of this paper to implement 2 × 2 multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system and also to design four mutually orthogonal MIMO patch antennas with a single substrate, which are fed by four microstrip lines using the same resonant frequency of 2.45 GHz which is also applicable to the WLAN. All antenna parameters such as VSWR, insertion loss, return loss, and correlation coefficient are calculated. The characteristics of the proposed antennas are simulated using CST Microwave Studio 2018 software.

    The algorithm works by dividing the nodes of a graph G into two groups; one is non-visited type of groups including the nodes that are not colored and visited type of groups including the nodes that are already colored and hence finds minimum number of colors that have been filled into visited nodes. An assumption is taken that k number of colors is already given, and the colors are selected from the same k colors. The proposed algorithm is implemented on random graphs along with some well-known graph coloring DIMACS benchmarks. In this research paper, an efficient graph color algorithm is proposed that uses a reduced number of colors for the well-known graph coloring problem. This projected algorithm can be applied to all types of graphs.

    Steganography plays a big role in secret communication by concealing secret information in the carrier. This paper presents a graph signal processing-based robust image steganography technique for posting images over social networks. In the embedding, we first obtained a scrambled version of the secret image using quantum scrambling. Next, we applied graph wavelet transformation on both the cover image and scrambled secret image followed by α (alpha) blending on both image signals (cover image signal and scrambled image signal). Finally, inverse graph wavelet transformation of the resulting image was undertaken to obtain the stego image. In this paper, the use of graph wavelet transformation improved interpixel correlation, which resulted in the excellent visual quality of both the stego image and the extracted secret image. Our experiments show that the picture quality of both the cover image and the stego image is exactly the same.

    Cerebrum signals can be acquired and broken down with various techniques, as represented in the paper. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are damaged by various conventional i.e. signals related to muscle action, eye development, and body movement, which have non-cerebral inception. The outcomes of such traditions are superior to that of the cerebrum’s electrical movement, so they cover the cortical signs of interest and bring a one-sided investigation. A few visually impaired source partition techniques have been created to expel ancient rarities from the EEG accounts. The iterative procedure for estimating detachment inside multichannel chronicles is computationally immovable in all cases. The curiosity segments require a tedious disconnected procedure except physically. The proposed work gives a curio expulsion calculation that depends on the authoritative connection examination (CCA) and Gaussian Mix-Model (GMM) to expand the nature of signs of EEG. In particular, EEG signs can be investigated utilizing various techniques, proposing a mix of strategies ideal for simplicity of automated examination and conclusion of epileptic seizures.

    Agriculture is a well-known term that refers to one of the most important sources of vegetarian food. Agriculture produces fabrics, wool, cotton, and leather in addition to food. Agriculture affects more than 65 percent of the world's population, either directly or indirectly. For many individuals, it is their main source of income. It accounts for a substantial portion of global GDP. Farmers, however, despite spending a lot of money, are unable to produce enough quantities and quality food owing to poor weather conditions and other issues. Farmers have difficulty in detecting illness in plants, and farmers also face challenges in managing these diseases. Plant classification/recognition, fruit classification/counting, weed classification/counting, disease identification, and other agricultural topics are covered in this chapter. We also go through different deep learning methods such as CNN, RNN, and GAN, as well as preset networks like as VGG and ResNet, and solutions to specific agricultural issues.

    Sleep stages classification avails the diagnosis and treatment of sleep-related disorders. The traditional visual inspection methods used by sleep-experts are time-consuming and error-prone. This framework proposes, an automatic sleep stages classification method based on optimize flexible analytic wavelet transform (OFAWT) for electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. In OFAWT, the parametric optimization is performed to obtain the most appropriate basis for the representation of EEG signals. The OFAWT parameters are selected by solving inequality constraints problem using the genetic algorithm. OFAWT decomposes EEG signal into band-limited basis or sub-bands (SBs). Time domain measures of SBs are used as features for the sleep stages EEG signals. The statistical significance of extracted features is assessed by multiple-comparison post hoc analysis of Kruskal–Wallis test, which ensures that reported features are statistically significant for the discrimination of sleep stages. The SB-wise features set is tested through the variants of decision tree, discriminant analysis, k-nearest neighbor, and ensemble classifiers for sleep stages classification. The ensemble classification model bagged-tree yields better classification accuracies for the classification of six to two sleep stages 96.03%, 96.39%, 96.48%, 97.56%, and 99.36%, respectively as compared to other existing methods.

    Graph coloring problem is a famous NP-complete problem and there exist several methods which have been projected to resolve this issue. For a graph colouring algorithm to be efficient, it ought to paint the input graph by minimum colours and must also find the solution in the minimum possible time. Here, we have proposed a different method to solve the graph coloring problem using maximal independent set. In our method, we used the concept of maximal independent sets using trees. In the first part, it converts a massive graph into a sequence of step by step smaller graphs by eliminating big independent sets from the initial graph. The second part starts by assigning a proper colour to each maximal independent set within the sequence. The proposed method is estimated on the DIMACS standards and presented reasonable outcomes concerning to other latest methods.

    Data deduplication refers to size reduction of data by eliminating data redundancy due to duplication. Possibility of duplication is high when size of data is huge. As the data especially digital data is growing drastically on the Internet due to emerging online ways of communication and interaction in various areas such as social media, banking, and marketing, the problem of duplicate data has become serious. There are various data deduplication techniques that can be used to reduce its size. Apart from reducing the required storage space this reduction may result into different adjoining benefits. For example, it saves device cost and time required for backup and archive when data is to be stored on secondary storage. In case of primary storage, it eliminates duplicate disk I/Os and thus reduce the time of program execution. When data is meant for cloud storage, deduplication reduces time for data uploading on WAN. When data is to be stored on virtual machine, it saves time for its migration. When data is on network, its size reduction reduces time of transmission and reduces redundancy for WAN optimization.

    Data deduplication (DD) approaches are used to eliminate redundant data from the existing data. It means that DD helps for the effective utilization of storage space and then reduces accessing time of data. It is regarded as a propitious approach to manage duplicate data. DD originally permits the uploading of exclusive data copy to the storage, whereas the succeeding copies (duplicates) are rendered with pointers to the genuine amassed duplicates. Nevertheless, numerous DD methods were posited and utilized; no particular best solution was developed to manage all sorts of redundancies. Every DD approach was created with dissimilar designs in addition to DD time-centered on performance together with overhead. Presume that the datasets have numerous duplicates for a file. In this scenario, the DD relates files devoid of observing at their content for a quick running time. Nevertheless, for similar files (not identical), DD approaches look within the files for verifying which portion of the file contents are existent (same) in the formerly saved data for effectually saving the storage space. Here various prevailing DD approaches are organized centered on granularity, deduplication’s location, and deduplication time. This work commences by clarifying the effective detection of redundancy utilizing hashing (chunk index) and bloom filters. After that, it illustrates how every DD approach functions.

    Since, channel assignment problem has been shown to be an NP-hard problem. Also, it is shown that the channel assignment problem is very similar to the graph k-color ability problem. But Graph k-Color ability (for k ≥ 3) Problem (GCP) is still a well known NP-complete problem. There are many approaches have been proposed to solve NP-complete problem, but none of the approaches could give the deterministic solution. One of the recent approach to solve NP-complete problem in deterministic way is Boolean satisfiability (SAT). Reduction between graph k-color ability problem to/from satisfiability expression can be a important concept to solve channel assignment problem in cellular network. For analyzing the behaviors of NP-Complete problems, in recent years, there has been much interest in study of phase transitions. Analytical and experimental research has shown that the "phase transition" phenomenon is often associated with the hardness of complexity. Each of the problems has a standard known phase transition. Previously, in [1] [2], we have reduced graph k-color ability problem to/from 3-satisfiability expression in polynomial way. In this paper, we analyzed and calculated the phase transition of systematically generated 3-colorable graph and 3-CNF-SAT expression by our reduction method of 3-SAT to/from 3-colorable graph. We observed that calculated phase transitions are lower than the know phase transition as well as phase transition obtained by Alaxander [3]. This lower phase transition shows that our reduction method is better than previously proposed methods to transform two NP-complete problems into each other more efficiently. © 2012 IEEE.

    In cellular network, the frequency spectrum has become an important resource for communication services; since nowadays numbers of cellular users are rapidly increasing but available frequency spectrum is limited. Therefore, there is need of a proper channel assignment approach by which co-channel interference could be minimized and reusability of channels could be maximized using the limited span of the frequency band while satisfying the communication quality constraints. Since, channel assignment problem has been shown to be an NP-hard problem. Also, it is shown that the channel assignment problem is very similar to the graph k-colorability problem. But Graph k-Colorability (for k ≥ 3) Problem (GCP) is a well known NP-Complete problem. There are many approaches has been proposed to solve graph k-colorability and one of the recent approach is propositional satisfiability (SAT). In this paper, we reduce the channel assignment problem in cellular network to 3-satisfiability (3-CNF-SAT) expression using graph k-colorability and also it is illustrated by a small instance of channel assignment in cellular network. Our reduction formulation generates the 3-CNF-SAT formula corresponding to any channel assignment instance in polynomial time. © 2012 IEEE.

    Graph Colorability Problem (GCP) is a well known NP-Complete problem consisting on finding the k minimum number of colors to paint the vertexes of a graph in such a way that two adjacent vertexes joined by an edge has always different colors. GCP is very important because it has many applications; one of the great application in cellular network is channel assignment[16]. Efficiant Channel assignment is a big challange in cellular network. Here, a cellular network is modeled as graph[12], set of channels (colors) must be assigned to cells (vertices) while avoiding interference. Since, till now there are not any known deterministic methods that can solved a GCP in a polynomial time [1]. But with the help of polynomial solvability of 3-SAT [14], we can solved GCP into polynomial time. In this paper, we transformed GCP into a 3-CNF-Satisfiability Problem [1,13]. Further, we illustrate it by one of the instance of graph coloring, the 3-colorable graph into 3-CNF-SAT. © 2011 IEEE.
