Although chest X-rays are a quick way to identify Pneumonia, they can be challenging to interpret due to the similarities between Pneumonia and other lung conditions. This research presents a computer-aided approach to Pneumonia diagnosis that uses chest x-rays to enhance diagnostic decision-making. Moreover, situations such as the coronavirus pandemic, where widespread lockdowns are implemented and human contact poses significant risks, highlight the importance of computer-aided diagnosis like this. Consequently, a technique for the quick and automatic diagnosis of Pneumonia is presented in this work. Based on chest X-ray pictures, a deep learningbased architecture called "ESPD" is suggested for the automatic diagnosis of Pneumonia. A benchmark dataset comprising 5,856 chest X-ray pictures was utilized for the suggested deep-learning network's testing, evaluation, and training. The total accuracy of the suggested model was found to be 98.24%, consisting of 0.98 F1-Score, 0.98 precision, 0.98 recall, and 0.97 specificity. In comparison to previous methods in the literature, the suggested method was found to be quicker and less computationally expensive, and it also produced accuracy that showed promise.

Agriculture is defined as the science and art of cultivating the flora and fauna. Soil is an important natural resource and is frequently regarded as one of the most significant natural resources for food production. Lack of knowledge and instruments is the basic problem in maintaining agricultural resources. The majority of farmers are unable to assess the condition of their crops and land. But, the agriculture sector faces challenges like water scarcity, climate change, and low production due to outdated farming practices, wasting time, money, and fertility. The main contribution of research is to provide farmers with information and appropriate solutions. As a result, it plays a crucial role in promoting constructive change in the agriculture industry and enhancing the welfare of farming communities. In our proposed system, a portable device collects soil information through a few sensors. Soil moisture, humidity, temperature and pH sensors detect the condition, then data analysis provides a decision according to the data. Our decision will be provided to farmers through an SMS alert system. Using this device, the irrigation of water will be reduced and fertility will be easier for the farmers. Additionally, a web-based monitoring system is linked to an IoT platform named Blynk in this system. The adoption of smart farming technology increases modern agricultural output and makes it possible to plant. We have used the Arduino UNO on the backend to implement our model and build the suggested system.

The situation gets risky when these disabled people left alone freely in the outside world. But they shouldn't be locked up for this reason. So we need a way to help and protect them. Sign language recognition is the field related to communication which is a visual language that uses body language and facial expressions to convey meaning. Recent technological advances have enabled the development of advanced sign language recognition systems that can interpret sign language and translate it into written and spoken language. These systems typically use computer vision techniques to analyse sign language gestures and movements and map them to written or spoken language. Sign language recognition technology have the potential to greatly improve the accessibility of communication for people with hearing and speech impairments and to improve communication between people who speak different languages. In this paper, our proposed system has achieved the accuracy of 91.67% which is better compared to the existing works in the literature.

The likelihood of a person with anxiety developing depression is quite high. Addressing the prevalence of depression and anxiety among university level students is of paramount importance for their well-being and academic success. Without proper treatment, depression can cause severe negative effects on an individual's quality of life and their ability to perform daily tasks. A person suffering from an anxiety disorder may experience excessive and constant worry, fear or get highly concerned about future events or situations. The aim of this paper is to predict the stage of depression and anxiety of a person based on text input. There are four stages which are minimal, mild, moderate and severe. In this research, we have used Logistic Regression, Decision Tree, Random Forest, Neural Networks, K-Nearest Neighbor and a hybrid stacking model. For the hybrid model, we have used Linear Discriminant Analysis as a meta classifier which is a dimensionality reduction technique and it combines five Machine Learning classifiers. After analyzing and comparing performance of all the 5 classifiers and the hybrid model, we have observed that the hybrid stacking model provides better accuracy than all the other classifiers. The training of our proposed hybrid model was done using more than 10,800 data for depression prediction and more than 14,500 data for anxiety prediction. We got 99% testing accuracy in depression prediction and 97% testing accuracy in anxiety prediction by using our proposed hybrid model.

Pollutants such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons and ammonia are released into the atmosphere from such vehicles. The majority of the models which are used in the existing researches are designed to identify gas pollution for vehicles, considering ideal cases such as normal highways. In this paper, we have focused not only on the ideal cases but also on the extreme cases, including the measurement of greenhouse gas emissions from moving cars in urban and hilly areas. Our proposed model's characteristics include measuring greenhouse gas values to warn the corresponding authorities by using some sensors, finding hilly places where polluted gases are most likely to be found through GPS, detecting unfit vehicles by emission values and providing an alert message to the authority. Notably, a plain route has an overall fuel economy of approximately 15-20% whereas, in the hilly regions, fuel increases 20% that causes 4% greater carbon emissions. In this research, we have taken this issue into consideration and attempted to resolve it by establishing a dynamic threshold.

Such disorders are found in childhood life. Children with ASD have less capabilities in communication and social skills. Therapies are used to develop communication and social skills. Recently researchers are trying to use robots in such therapies. In this paper, we have presented social skill learning test cases for children with ASD. Autism conditions are measured in 30 children in a special school. Among them, twelve children are selected who have similar ASD conditions. Then six children participated in training with humans and another six children participated in training with robots. The learning session continued for three alternative days for a child of a week and the duration of each session was two hours for each day. We have taken an assessment test before and after the learning sessions by a human trainer. We have found better performances from children who have participated in robotic sessions rather than the children who have participated in human sessions.

However, despite the best efforts from the developers, software defects can still emerge, causing frustration and wasted resources. Due to the numerous defects found during the software development process, researchers have developed numerous ways for defect prediction models. However, these models cut down the time and expense of development when problems in a concurrent software product are anticipated. Due to the increased amount of defects brought on by software complexity, manual defect detection can become an extremely time-consuming procedure. This encouraged researchers to create methods for the automatic detection of software defects. The study of this paper has shown that a combination of machine learning algorithms could be applied effectively for software defect prediction. Interestingly, the combination of Artificial Neural Network and Random Forest classifier has been performed with the mean accuracy of 91%, while the hyper-parameter optimization model classifier has been performed with the mean accuracy of 83%, 83%, 84%, 77% and 80% for Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes Gaussian and Decision Tree, respectively. These findings have demonstrated the potential of Machine Learning in the area of software development.

Often, we can tell how someone is feeling by looking at their faces. Another method is to detect someone’s emotions by auditory cues or speech. With a more straightforward architecture and fewer learnable parameters, the aim of this paper is to identify someone’s emotion from an audio input. Three aspects have been suggested in the proposed methodology named MFCC (Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficients), Mel-spectrogram and Chromagram, and MLP (Multilayer Perceptron). These features have been employed in this paper, because they perform better. MLP is a supervised machine learning, which is frequently used in various research to categorize human voice recognition. In addition, MLPs are appropriate for classification prediction issues where inputs are given as a class or label. They are also appropriate for regression prediction issues in which a real-valued quantity is forecasted from a collection of inputs. With the help of our proposed methods, we are able to achieve an accuracy of 80% on the RAVDESS Dataset.

But they should not be caged for this reason. So, there is a need for a way that can help and protect them. This paper brings an IoT (Internet of Things)-based support system for children with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). The proposed system uses several IoT devices such as Accelerometer sensor, Gas sensor, Temperature sensor, Heart rate sensor, etc. which are linked up with a modern microcontroller called Arduino Uno for monitoring and helping the children with ASD to learn and improve their quality of life. The proposed system uses the sensors to read the surrounding environment of the child and then analyze if there is any risky situation going around. Finally, based on the results, it notifies the parents or supervisor of the autistic children. Additionally, a GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) module is used to communicate with their parents. The system keeps tracking all real-time surrounding environment data. It analyzes sensors’ readings against different threshold values collected from the experiments in different scenarios to determine whether any risk has occurred or not.

Energy has become a global concern amongst all software industries. Existing SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) model cannot meet the energy related issues associated with the devices, particularly smartphones that have limited battery life. In this paper, we have proposed a modified SDLC model that contains total seven steps which includes requirement analysis, design, coding, EE (Energy Efficiency) analysis, unit testing, integration testing and deployment. Among them, our main contribution is on EE analysis which checks a code based on three parameters named Memory Usage, Execution Cycle (CPU Usage) and Energy Usage. The process starts from the coding phase which is the third phase of our proposed model. A loop starts in coding phase and continues up to unit testing phase including the EE analysis. This loop checks a code either it is efficient or not based on some criteria. Efficient data access pattern, data representation, data organization, data precision choice, I/O configuration, dead code elimination, code transformation & increase of concurrency can produce different impact in software execution. We have achieved significant change in energy usage and memory usage by applying the above mentioned techniques. Calculated energy usage and memory usage of a software developed by traditional agile method is 0.1259mW & 39.40%, respectively whereas our proposed model achieved 0.0119mW & 27.33%, respectively. Our proposed SDLC model mainly focus on coding phase and it can reduce energy consumption rate of a software.

It may be possible to bring down the overall death rate of individuals if cardiovascular disease can be detected in its earlier stages. If the cardiac disease is detected at an earlier stage, there is a greater possibility that it may be successfully treated and managed under the guidance of a physician. Recent advances in areas such as the Internet of Things, cloud storage, and machine learning have given rise to renewed optimism over the capacity of technology to bring about a paradigm change on a global scale. At the bedside, the use of sensors to capture vital signs has grown increasingly commonplace in recent years. Patients are manually monitored using a monitor located at the patient’s bedside; there is no automatic data processing taking place. These results, which came from an investigation of cardiovascular disease carried out across a large number of hospitals, have been used in the development of a protocol for the early, automated, and intelligent identification of heart disorders. The PASCAL data set is prepared by collecting data from different hospitals using the digital stethoscope. This data set is publicly available, and it is used by many researchers around the world in experimental work. The proposed strategy for doing research includes three steps. The first stage is known as the data collection phase, the data is collected using biosensors and IoT devices through wireless sensor networks. In the second step, all of the information pertaining to healthcare is uploaded to the cloud so that it may be analyzed. The last step in the process is training the model using data taken from already-existing medical records. Deep learning strategies are used in order to classify the sound that is produced by the heart. The deep CNN algorithm is used for sound feature extraction and classification. The PASCAL data set is essential to the functioning of the experimental environment. The deep CNN model is performing most accurately.

In case of an accident, some people are unable to reach a hospital promptly. Ambulance shortages and a lack of a timely method of relaying information to the relevant authorities, the authors have proposed an Internet of Things (IoT) based preventive, detection and emergency solution. The main contribution of this research is to reduce the number of accidents. In this proposed system, a car will stop around 30 cm ahead of any obstacle. The system assesses whether a driver has consumed alcohol. If the sensor detects the presence of alcohol, the driver will be unable to start the car. The sleep sensor continually monitors whether the driver is asleep. The system's architecture reduces the amount of time it takes between an accident occurring in a specific place and Google Streetline determining the shortestpath hospital response. When an accident happens for unknown causes, the server sends an SMS alert with location data to the owner.

Pollutants such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons and ammonia are released into the atmosphere from such vehicles. The majority of the models which are used in the existing researches are designed to identify gas pollution for vehicles, considering ideal cases such as normal highways. In this paper, we have focused not only on the ideal cases but also on the extreme cases, including the measurement of greenhouse gas emissions from moving cars in urban and hilly areas. Our proposed model's characteristics include measuring greenhouse gas values to warn the corresponding authorities by using some sensors, finding hilly places where polluted gases are most likely to be found through GPS, detecting unfit vehicles by emission values and providing an alert message to the authority. Notably, a plain route has an overall fuel economy of approximately 15-20% whereas, in the hilly regions, fuel increases 20% that causes 4% greater carbon emissions. In this research, we have taken this issue into consideration and attempted to resolve it by establishing a dynamic threshold.

Such disorders are found in childhood life. Children with ASD have less capabilities in communication and social skills. Therapies are used to develop communication and social skills. Recently researchers are trying to use robots in such therapies. In this paper, we have presented social skill learning test cases for children with ASD. Autism conditions are measured in 30 children in a special school. Among them, twelve children are selected who have similar ASD conditions. Then six children participated in training with humans and another six children participated in training with robots. The learning session continued for three alternative days for a child of a week and the duration of each session was two hours for each day. We have taken an assessment test before and after the learning sessions by a human trainer. We have found better performances from children who have participated in robotic sessions rather than the children who have participated in human sessions.

However, despite the best efforts from the developers, software defects can still emerge, causing frustration and wasted resources. Due to the numerous defects found during the software development process, researchers have developed numerous ways for defect prediction models. However, these models cut down the time and expense of development when problems in a concurrent software product are anticipated. Due to the increased amount of defects brought on by software complexity, manual defect detection can become an extremely time-consuming procedure. This encouraged researchers to create methods for the automatic detection of software defects. The study of this paper has shown that a combination of machine learning algorithms could be applied effectively for software defect prediction. Interestingly, the combination of Artificial Neural Network and Random Forest classifier has been performed with the mean accuracy of 91%, while the hyper-parameter optimization model classifier has been performed with the mean accuracy of 83%, 83%, 84%, 77% and 80% for Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, Logistic Regression, Naive Bayes Gaussian and Decision Tree, respectively. These findings have demonstrated the potential of Machine Learning in the area of software development.

Often, we can tell how someone is feeling by looking at their faces. Another method is to detect someone’s emotions by auditory cues or speech. With a more straightforward architecture and fewer learnable parameters, the aim of this paper is to identify someone’s emotion from an audio input. Three aspects have been suggested in the proposed methodology named MFCC (Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficients), Mel-spectrogram and Chromagram, and MLP (Multilayer Perceptron). These features have been employed in this paper, because they perform better. MLP is a supervised machine learning, which is frequently used in various research to categorize human voice recognition. In addition, MLPs are appropriate for classification prediction issues where inputs are given as a class or label. They are also appropriate for regression prediction issues in which a real-valued quantity is forecasted from a collection of inputs. With the help of our proposed methods, we are able to achieve an accuracy of 80% on the RAVDESS Dataset.

But they should not be caged for this reason. So, there is a need for a way that can help and protect them. This paper brings an IoT (Internet of Things)-based support system for children with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). The proposed system uses several IoT devices such as Accelerometer sensor, Gas sensor, Temperature sensor, Heart rate sensor, etc. which are linked up with a modern microcontroller called Arduino Uno for monitoring and helping the children with ASD to learn and improve their quality of life. The proposed system uses the sensors to read the surrounding environment of the child and then analyze if there is any risky situation going around. Finally, based on the results, it notifies the parents or supervisor of the autistic children. Additionally, a GSM (Global System for Mobile communication) module is used to communicate with their parents. The system keeps tracking all real-time surrounding environment data. It analyzes sensors’ readings against different threshold values collected from the experiments in different scenarios to determine whether any risk has occurred or not.

Energy has become a global concern amongst all software industries. Existing SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) model cannot meet the energy related issues associated with the devices, particularly smartphones that have limited battery life. In this paper, we have proposed a modified SDLC model that contains total seven steps which includes requirement analysis, design, coding, EE (Energy Efficiency) analysis, unit testing, integration testing and deployment. Among them, our main contribution is on EE analysis which checks a code based on three parameters named Memory Usage, Execution Cycle (CPU Usage) and Energy Usage. The process starts from the coding phase which is the third phase of our proposed model. A loop starts in coding phase and continues up to unit testing phase including the EE analysis. This loop checks a code either it is efficient or not based on some criteria. Efficient data access pattern, data representation, data organization, data precision choice, I/O configuration, dead code elimination, code transformation & increase of concurrency can produce different impact in software execution. We have achieved significant change in energy usage and memory usage by applying the above mentioned techniques. Calculated energy usage and memory usage of a software developed by traditional agile method is 0.1259mW & 39.40%, respectively whereas our proposed model achieved 0.0119mW & 27.33%, respectively. Our proposed SDLC model mainly focus on coding phase and it can reduce energy consumption rate of a software.

It may be possible to bring down the overall death rate of individuals if cardiovascular disease can be detected in its earlier stages. If the cardiac disease is detected at an earlier stage, there is a greater possibility that it may be successfully treated and managed under the guidance of a physician. Recent advances in areas such as the Internet of Things, cloud storage, and machine learning have given rise to renewed optimism over the capacity of technology to bring about a paradigm change on a global scale. At the bedside, the use of sensors to capture vital signs has grown increasingly commonplace in recent years. Patients are manually monitored using a monitor located at the patient’s bedside; there is no automatic data processing taking place. These results, which came from an investigation of cardiovascular disease carried out across a large number of hospitals, have been used in the development of a protocol for the early, automated, and intelligent identification of heart disorders. The PASCAL data set is prepared by collecting data from different hospitals using the digital stethoscope. This data set is publicly available, and it is used by many researchers around the world in experimental work. The proposed strategy for doing research includes three steps. The first stage is known as the data collection phase, the data is collected using biosensors and IoT devices through wireless sensor networks. In the second step, all of the information pertaining to healthcare is uploaded to the cloud so that it may be analyzed. The last step in the process is training the model using data taken from already-existing medical records. Deep learning strategies are used in order to classify the sound that is produced by the heart. The deep CNN algorithm is used for sound feature extraction and classification. The PASCAL data set is essential to the functioning of the experimental environment. The deep CNN model is performing most accurately.

In case of an accident, some people are unable to reach a hospital promptly. Ambulance shortages and a lack of a timely method of relaying information to the relevant authorities, the authors have proposed an Internet of Things (IoT) based preventive, detection and emergency solution. The main contribution of this research is to reduce the number of accidents. In this proposed system, a car will stop around 30 cm ahead of any obstacle. The system assesses whether a driver has consumed alcohol. If the sensor detects the presence of alcohol, the driver will be unable to start the car. The sleep sensor continually monitors whether the driver is asleep. The system's architecture reduces the amount of time it takes between an accident occurring in a specific place and Google Streetline determining the shortestpath hospital response. When an accident happens for unknown causes, the server sends an SMS alert with location data to the owner.
