Closed-loop digital twin intelligence for resilient and autonomous optical infrastructure and communications Swati Patil, Dayanand Bhaurao Jadhav, Kantilal Rane, Hemant A Wani Journal of Optical Communications, 2026 Ultra-reliable optical communication links are required for mission-critical applications such as 5G/6G fronthaul, industrial automation, and data-center interconnects. In these applications the rare events that lead to communication failures are the limiting factor, rather than average performance. This work introduces a Monte-Carlo-driven digital twin framework for reliably designing coherent single-mode fiber optical links using Monte-Carlo simulation methods to compute outage probability for the given link parameters. The optical propagation is modeled using the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and solved using the Split-Step Fourier Method. The model incorporates chromatic dispersion, Kerr nonlinearity, attenuation, and variations in the noise statistics in the environment. Outage probability is defined as P out = Pr( Q < Q th ), where Q -factor is estimated via Monte-Carlo sampling. To reduce the computational cost of rare-event sampling, a neural-network surrogate digital twin is trained to model the relationship between link parameters, noise statistics, and outage probability. The fidelity of the model is assessed using MAE and R 2 metrics. The multi-objective optimization problem of maximizing outage probability while minimizing transmit power is solved using Pareto optimality principles. The results show a dramatic reduction in outage probability compared to designs based on fixed margins while providing a speedup of over two orders-of-magnitude compared to brute-force Monte-Carlo SSFM simulations. All simulations and models are available in an open-source and reproducible Python framework.

Lastly, this chapter outlines the future and opportunities for robots to contribute to developing resilient, climate-smart, and fully automated farming ecosystems.
CLAHE-AlexNet optimized deep learning model for accurate detection of diabetic retinopathy Swetha G., Gaurav Gupta, Kantilal Pitambar Rane, Omkar M. Ghag, Sachin K. Korde, Sachin Lalar, Batyrkhan Omarov, Abhishek Raghuvanshi Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2025 Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a disease that affects the blood vessels that are located in the retina. Loss of vision due to diabetes is a common consequence of the illness and a key factor in the progression of vision loss and blindness. Both ophthalmology and diabetes research have become more dependent on computer vision and image processing techniques in recent years. Fundus photography, also known as a fundus image, is a method that may be used to capture an image of the back of a person's eye. This article presents optimized deep learning model for diagnostic marking in retinal fundus images towards accurate detection of retinopathy. For experimental work, 500 images were selected from available open source Kaggle data set. 400 images were used to train deep learning model and remaining 100 images were used to validate the model. Images were enhanced using the contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) algorithm. Pre trained convolutional neural network (CNN) models-AlexNet, VGG16, GoogleNet, and ResNet are used for classification and prediction of images. Accuracy, specificity, precision and F1-score of AlexNet is better than VGG16, ResNet-50, and GoogleNet. Sensitivity of ResNet-50 is higher than other pre trained CNN models.
Optimized convolutional neural network enabled technique for sentiment analysis from social media data Chinta Veena, Kavita A. Sultanpure, Meenakshi Meenakshi, Sunil L. Bangare, Punam Sunil Raskar, Shriram Sadashiv Kulkarni, Myla M. Arcinas, Kantilal Pitambar Rane Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2025 Sentiment analysis is an area of computational linguistics that studies natural language processing. The most significant subtasks are gathering people's thoughts and organizing them into groups to determine how they feel. The primary purpose of sentiment analysis is to determine whether the individual who created a piece of material has a positive or negative opinion about a subject. It has been claimed that sentiment analysis and social media mining have contributed to the recent success of both private sector and the government. Emotional analysis has applications in practically every aspect of modern life, from individuals to corporations, telecommunications to medical, and economics to politics. This article describes an improved sentiment analysis model based on gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) texture feature extraction and a convolutional neural network (CNN). This model was created using tweets. First, texture characteristics are extracted from the input data set using the GLCM technique. This feature extraction improves categorization accuracy. CNNs are used to classify objects. It outperforms both the support vector machine and the AdaBoost algorithms in terms of accuracy. CNN has achieved an accuracy of 98.5% for sentiment analysis task.
AI-Driven Intelligent Visual Analytics of Remote-Sensed Data for Sustainable Earth and Environmental Monitoring R Vignesh, Vivek Parashar, Gayatri Hegde, Ravi Veluri, Nusrat Parveen, Mutkule Raghunath, Sandipan Biswas, Kantilal Rane, Abhishek Raghuvanshi Journal of Applied Science and Technology Trends, 2025 The ecosystem degradation and climate change are increasing at a very high rate, and this phenomenon must be monitored with the aid of the most advanced technologies to organize the management of resources in the most efficient manner. In the paper, a smart visual analytics system is proposed that may be applied to utilize the remote-sensed data on the holistic monitoring of the environment. The model applies multispectral and hyperspectral satellite images and machine learning and deep learning models to determine crucial indicators of the environment (such as vegetation cover, water quality, and urban growth patterns). A graph-based clustering approach with Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) can be used to extract features and cluster data to identify anomalies in real time to interpret geospatial data on a big scale. The results show that the specified system would be effective in the land cover classification with an accuracy of 93%, in contrast to the accuracy of the conventional remote sensing analytics tools, which is 15 percent higher. In addition, the use of normalized different indexes estimation of water quality led to the R² of 0.87 that indicated the high predictive reliability. The visual analytics dashboard can dynamically interact with spatial-temporal patterns in such a way that the sustainability of the available resources can be managed by the decision-making process.
An efficient course recommendation system for higher education students using machine learning techniques Myla M. Arcinas, Meenakshi Meenakshi, Pranjali S. Bahalkar, Deepali Bhaturkar, Sachin Lalar, Kantilal Pitambar Rane, Shaifali Garg, Batyrkhan Omarov, Abhishek Raghuvanshi Bulletin of Electrical Engineering and Informatics, 2025 Education institutions and teachers are in desperate need of automated, non-intrusive means of getting student feedback that would allow them to better understand the learning cycle and assess the success of course design. Students would benefit from a framework that intelligently guides their actions and provides exercises or resources to support and enhance their learning. The recommender system framework is a software agent that learns the user's preferences through a variety of channels and then utilizes that knowledge to provide product suggestions. A recommendation engine considers all potential user interests as background information, uses that knowledge to produce convincing recommendations, and then returns those ideas to the user. This article presents a feature selection and machine learning based course recommendation system for higher education students. principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm is used for feature selection. AdaBoost, k nearest neighbour (KNN), and Naïve Bayes algorithms are used to classify and predict student data. It is found that the AdaBoost algorithm is having better accuracy and F1 score for course recommendation to students. PCA AdaBoost is achieving an accuracy of 99.5%.
Explainable AI for inverse-design of optical network on chip routers Jotiram K. Deshmukh, Kantilal Pitambar Rane, Milind P. Gajare, Monali Chaudhari Journal of Optical Communications, 2025 Inverse design uses advanced AI capabilities to autonomously create the best geometries and configurations for an optical network-on-chip router. Here, we use reinforcement learning to facilitate the design process, where the system learns over time what architectures best suit the target criteria (latency, signal loss, area, throughput) to achieve the best functioning router. However, while reinforcement learning is an effective means of achieving desired output, the reinforcement learning created is often complex and non-interpretable for human engineers. Therefore, we use explainable artificial intelligence methods to make the final interpretations more interpretable and justifiable. Explainable artificial intelligence helps to explain why each move was made during the design process. Thus, reinforcement learning-inverse-designed optical network-on-chip routers will perform better under desired metrics with explainable artificial intelligence providing human designers a level of explainability and justification for human trust and verification for artificial intelligence generated things.
