Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) poses a significant challenge in early diagnosis and intervention due to its multifaceted clinical presentation and lack of objective biomarkers. This research presents a novel approach, termed Neuro Connect, which integrates data-driven techniques with Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU) classification to enhance the prediction of ASD using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data. This study uses both structural and functional neuroimaging data to investigate the complex brain underpinnings of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). They use an Auto-Encoder (AE) to efficiently reduce dimensionality while retaining critical information by learning and compressing important characteristics from high-dimensional data. We treat the feature-extracted data using a BiGRU model for the classification task of predicting ASD. They provide a new optimization strategy, the Horse Herd Algorithm (HHA), and show that it outperforms other established optimizers, such SGD and Adam, in order to improve classification accuracy. The model's performance is greatly enhanced by the HHA's novel optimization technique, which more precisely refines weight modifications made during training. The proposed ASD and EEG dataset accuracy value is 99.5%, and 99.3 compared to the existing method the proposed has a high accuracy value.

Interpretable machine learning models are instrumental in disease diagnosis and clinical decision-making, shedding light on relevant features. Notably, Boruta, SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations), and BorutaShap were employed for feature selection, each contributing to the identification of crucial features. These selected features were then utilized to train six machine learning algorithms, including LR, SVM, ETC, AdaBoost, RF, and LR, using diverse medical datasets obtained from public sources after rigorous preprocessing. The performance of each feature selection technique was evaluated across multiple ML models, assessing accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. Among these, SHAP showcased superior performance, achieving average accuracies of 80.17%, 85.13%, 90.00%, and 99.55% across diabetes, cardiovascular, statlog, and thyroid disease datasets, respectively. Notably, the LGBM emerged as the most effective algorithm, boasting an average accuracy of 91.00% for most disease states. Moreover, SHAP enhanced the interpretability of the models, providing valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms driving disease diagnosis. This comprehensive study contributes significant insights into feature selection techniques and machine learning algorithms for disease diagnosis, benefiting researchers and practitioners in the medical field. Further exploration of feature selection methods and algorithms holds promise for advancing disease diagnosis methodologies, paving the way for more accurate and interpretable diagnostic models.

As the number of patients increases, physicians are dealing with more and more cases of degenerative spine pathologies on a daily basis. To reduce the workload of healthcare professionals, we propose a modified Swin-UNet network model. Firstly, the Swin Transformer Blocks are improved using a residual post-normalization and scaling cosine attention mechanism, which makes the training process of the model more stable and improves the accuracy. Secondly, we use the log-space continuous position biasing method instead of the bicubic interpolation position biasing method. This method solves the problem of performance loss caused by the large difference between the resolution of the pretraining image and the resolution of the spine image. Finally, we introduce a segmentation smooth module (SSM) at the decoder stage. The SSM effectively reduces redundancy, and enhances the segmentation edge processing to improve the model's segmentation accuracy. To validate the proposed method, we conducted experiments on a real dataset provided by hospitals. The average segmentation accuracy is no less than 95%. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method over the original model and other models of the same type in segmenting the spinous processes of the vertebrae and the posterior arch of the spine.

Railway Point Machine (RPM) is a fundamental component of railway infrastructure and plays a crucial role in ensuring the safe operation of trains. Its primary function is to divert trains from one track to another, enabling connections between different lines and facilitating route selection. By judiciously deploying turnouts, railway systems can provide efficient transportation services while ensuring the safety of passengers and cargo. As signal processing technologies develop rapidly, taking the easy acquisition advantages of audio signals, a fault diagnosis method for RPMs is proposed by considering noise and multi-channel signals. The proposed method consists of several stages. Initially, the signal is subjected to pre-processing steps, including cropping and channel separation. Subsequently, the signal undergoes noise addition using the Random Length and Dynamic Position Noises Superposition (RDS) module, followed by conversion to a greyscale image. To enhance the data, Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) module is applied. Finally, the training data is fed into a Dual-input Attention Convolutional Neural Network (DIACNN). By employing various experimental techniques and designing diverse datasets, our proposed method demonstrates excellent robustness and achieves an outstanding classification accuracy of 99.73%.

Brain-controlled robotic arm systems are designed to provide a method of communication and control for individuals with limited mobility or communication abilities. These systems can be beneficial for people who have suffered from a spinal cord injury, stroke, or neurological disease that affects their motor abilities. The ability of a person to control a robotic arm to reach and grasp multiple objects using their brain signals. This technology involves the use of an electroencephalogram (EEG) cap that captures the electrical activity in the user's brain, which is then processed by an artificial intelligent to translate it into commands that control the movements of the robotic arm. With this technology, individuals who are unable to move their limbs due to paralysis or other conditions can still perform daily activities such as feeding themselves, drinking from a glass, or grasping objects. In this paper, we propose an artificial intelligent-based control strategy for reach and grasp of multi-objects using brain-controlled robotic arm system. The proposed control strategy consists of threefold process: feature extraction, feature optimization, and control strategy classification. Initially, we design an improved ResNet pre-trained architecture for deep feature extraction from the given EEG signal.

Generally, financial investments are necessary for portfolio management. However, the prediction of a portfolio becomes complicated in several processing techniques which may cause certain issues while predicting the portfolio. Moreover, the error analysis needs to be validated with efficient performance measures. To solve the problems of portfolio optimization, a new portfolio prediction framework is developed. Initially, a dataset is collected from the standard database which is accumulated with various companies' portfolios. For forecasting the benefits of companies, a Multi-serial Cascaded Network (MCNet) is employed which constitutes of Autoencoder, 1D Convolutional Neural Network (1DCNN), and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) is utilized. The prediction output for the different companies is stored using the developed MCNet model for further use. After predicting the benefits, the best company with the highest profit is selected by Integration of Artificial Rabbit and Hummingbird Algorithm (IARHA). The major contribution of our work is to increase the accuracy of prediction and to choose the optimal portfolio. The implementation is conducted in Python platform. The result analysis shows that the developed model achieves 0.89% and 0.56% regarding RMSE and MAE measures. Throughout the analysis, the experimentation of the developed model shows enriched performance.

Nowadays, Deep Learning (DL) techniques are being used to automate the identification and diagnosis of plant diseases, thereby enhancing global food security and enabling non-experts to detect these diseases. Among many DL techniques, a Deep Encoder-Decoder Cascaded Network (DEDCNet) model can precisely segment diseased areas from the leaf images to differentiate and classify multiple diseases. On the other hand, the model training depends on the appropriate selection of hyperparameters. Also, this network structure has weak robustness with different parameters. Hence, in this manuscript, an Optimized DEDCNet (ODEDCNet) model is proposed for improved leaf disease image segmentation.

Both datasets achieve noteworthy recall, F-score, Dice coefficient, and precision values: the Betel Leaf Image dataset shows values of 97.4%, 97.29%, 97.35%, and 0.9897; the PlantVillage dataset shows values of 97.5%, 97.42%, 97.46%, and 0.9901, all completed in remarkably short processing times of 0.07 and 0.06 seconds, respectively. The achieved outcomes are evaluated with the contemporary optimization algorithms using the considered datasets to comprehend the efficiency of DOA.

The recent wireless communication systems require high gain, lightweight, low profile, and simple antenna structures to ensure high efficiency and reliability. The existing microstrip patch antenna (MPA) design approaches attain low gain and high return loss. To solve this issue, the geometric dimensions of the antenna should be optimized. The improved Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm which is the combination of PSO and simulated annealing (SA) approach (PSO-SA) is employed in this paper to optimize the width and length of the inset-fed rectangular microstrip patch antennas for Ku-band and C-band applications. The inputs to the proposed algorithm such as substrate height, dielectric constant, and resonant frequency and outputs are optimized for width and height. The return loss and gain of the antenna are considered for the fitness function. To calculate the fitness value, the Feedforward Neural Network (FNN) is employed in the PSO-SA approach. The design and optimization of the proposed MPA are implemented in MATLAB software. The performance of the optimally designed antenna with the proposed approach is evaluated in terms of the radiation pattern, return loss, Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), gain, computation time, directivity, and convergence speed.
最近的无线通信系统需要高增益、重量轻、外形小巧和结构简单的天线,以确保高效率和高可靠性。现有的微带贴片天线(MPA)设计方法增益低、回波损耗大。为解决这一问题,应优化天线的几何尺寸。本文采用了改进的粒子群优化(PSO)算法,即 PSO 和模拟退火(SA)方法(PSO-SA)的结合,来优化用于 Ku 波段和 C 波段应用的插馈式矩形微带贴片天线的宽度和长度。所提算法的输入(如基板高度、介电常数和谐振频率)和输出(如宽度和高度)均已优化。天线的回波损耗和增益被视为拟合函数。为了计算适配值,PSO-SA 方法采用了前馈神经网络(FNN)。拟议 MPA 的设计和优化在 MATLAB 软件中实现。通过辐射模式、回波损耗、电压驻波比 (VSWR)、增益、计算时间、指向性和收敛速度等方面,对采用所提方法优化设计的天线性能进行了评估。
