    Proceedings of 5th International Conference on Communication Computing and Electronics Systems Iccces 2026, 2026
    The heterogeneity of <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\mathbf{5 G} / \mathbf{6 G}$</tex> wireless mesh networks, including UAVs, vehicles, and edge devices, leads to frequent topology changes and intermittent links, both challenging the conventional routing protocols. This work proposes the GROF, Graph-based Routing Optimization Framework, a time-varying graph approach, fusing lightweight graph neural networks (GNN) with reinforcement routing for latencyminimizing, high-reliability path prediction in mixed-mobility meshes. GROF builds dynamic graphs from local link sensing, computes node embeddings by localized message passing, and selects the next hop using a distributed RL policy. Simulation results with 50-200 nodes, static to mobile ratio of 70:30, running on realistic mobility and traffic mixes, show improvement of PDR by <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\sim 5-12 \%$</tex> and reduction of end-to-end delay by <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$20-40 \%$</tex>, as compared to AODV, OLSR, HWMP, and a DRL baseline, while reducing routing overhead and energy per delivered packet. GROF's distributed graph learning is designed for deployment at the edge and promises good scalability to denser topologies.

    Proceedings of 6th International Conference on Expert Clouds and Applications Icoeca 2026, 2026
    Chest X ray imaging is extensively utilized for the diagnosis of pulmonary diseases, but the majority of deep learning based diagnosis systems are black boxes, making them less trustworthy for clinical applications. To overcome the limitation that deep learning based models face, in this work, a novel Gradient Aware Attention Network (GAAN), able to provide interpretability for the identification of chest X ray pathologies, is proposed. Unlike other possibility based explanation systems, the proposed approach inherently includes the gradient values within the attention learning approach. Based on the approach, the model is able to map the discriminative regions with attention. In addition, the model is optimized through joint learning. Comprehensive experiments conducted on the NIH ChestX ray14, CheXpert and MIMIC CXR databases show that the proposed model performs better compared to the state of the art CNN models, attention models and explanation models. In addition, the approach exhibits accuracy of 88.1%, AUC value of 0.921 and F1 value of 0.867. Moreover, the approach improves the localization map significantly with IoU value 0.517. Based on the experimental validation, the approach can produce attention maps that possess clear, pristine and relevant attributes with values focused on the regions such as the consolidation region and pleura region.

  • Hybrid deep learning model for autism spectrum disorder diagnosis
    D. Aarthi, S. Kannimuthu
    Scientific Reports, 2025
    Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition pertaining to the communication, social connectivity and conduct of individuals. ASD individuals develop symptoms such as recurrent actions, atypical facial expressions and challenges in social engagement. ASD prediction depends on various measures such as functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data, game-based assessments, kinematic traits, questionnaires, head activity analysis, motor activities and eye-tracking. Traditional diagnostic approaches are subjective. These approaches are clinician-dependent and time-consuming. This has resulted in various challenges for the early detection of the condition. This work evaluated the performance of five hybrid approaches such as MobileNetV2+BiLSTM, ResNet50+LSTM, EfficientNetB4, InceptionV3 and MobileNetV2+GRU. Each model was meticulously refined to achieve optimal performance on the facial image dataset obtained from the Kaggle repository. The hybrid MobileNetV2+GRU model showed high performance with 95.5% test accuracy, 95.94% precision, and 95.45% F1-score. When the suggested hybrid model was compared with the remaining models, the latter outperformed with a ROC value of 98%. The findings highlight the optimal performance and generalizability of the proposed MobileNetV2+GRU model in ASD diagnosis in children.

    Early identification of the better maternal and newborn outcomes, this paper examines how glowing unusual machine learning models identify fetal health issues using cardiotocography (CTG) data. The XGBoost model proved to be the most dependable model for classifying fetal health following extensive training and testing, by an accurateness of 96.01% and a Phi Coefficient of 0.8899. Despite somewhat lagging behind XGBoost, ensemble approaches like stacking and blending also produced high accuracies of 95.54% with MCC values of 0.8768. The Random Forest model was situated as a good but less dependable extra with an impressive accuracy of 94.60% and MCC of 0.8474. The model employed Logistic Regression worst by an accuracy of 87.79% and an MCC of 0.6655, while K-Nearest Neighbors and Support Vector Machine models presented practical efficacy. Due to its wonderful accuracy and balanced performance, the XGBoost model is optional for clinical applications in fetal health classification based on these findings. The model’s possible to enable early diagnosis and decrease the maternal and newborn mortality to timely intervention.

    Proceedings 2025 International Conference on Recent Innovation in Science Engineering and Technology Icriset 2025, 2025
    The combination of urban development with low regulatory oversight and forest clearing produces land encroachment as a major issue. Interruption detection techniques based on manual surveys and basic remote sensing face accuracy and cost limitations as well as delayed detection capabilities. A land encroachment detection method that uses CNNs and multi-temporal satellite imagery to address the existing problems associated with land encroachment detection. The classification process uses spatial-temporal analysis and spectral indices including NDVI, NDBI, and NDWI, enhancing the detection accuracy. The developed system delivered 94.7% accuracy which exceeded both RF at 86.4% and SVM at 88.2% while attaining precision of 93.5% along with recall of 95.2%. The results show that the detection system achieves dependable results on various soil and land types. Real-time monitoring of the system relies on Google Earth Engine and GIS visualization tools that have been deployed for implementation. The proposed approach delivers land management solutions along with automated prevention systems for encroachment that help both urban planners and policymakers to work more effectively.

    Proceedings 1st International Conference on Frontier Technologies and Solutions Icfts 2025, 2025
    Indeed, deeply advanced learning for data scientists has been applied to previously energy optimized smart grids through Deep learning and Deep Reinforcement learning techniques. In particular, emerging and gaining ground for smart grids is the use of deep neural network based reinforcement learning approaches. For discrete and continuous action space we use the deep reinforcement learning algorithms. We were able to construct these algorithms into a robust real physical smart grid optimizer with the use of the MATLAB environment. It was observed that the agent could correctly identify the features in the training data related to energy supply and demand and ‘learn’ to make actions that will get it the most rewards. In the scope of our multilevel, systems based method of smart grid modelling, EGO-ENIF model and traditional methods are deployed in tandem for the sake of improvement at different levels. Besides improving the predictive accuracy of the energy consumption patterns, this approach enables energy distribution decision making to be made in real time. With the help of advanced machine learning concept and the established model, we can achieve a more stable and efficient smart grid based on resource optimization and conditions adjustment.
