Cost Function Reduction Using Stability-Informed Bayesian Optimization for the Model Predictive Control of a Semi-Active Suspension System C. Raji, S. N. Prasad Engineering Technology and Applied Science Research, 2025 Traditional Model Predictive Control (MPC) performance is very sensitive to the state-weighting matrix and the control-weighting , resulting in time-consuming and suboptimal results. This work introduces a smart control approach for semi-active suspension systems that combines MPC with Stability-informed Bayesian Optimization (SiBO). The Bayesian framework uses a neural network surrogate model to approximate the cost function, significantly reducing the number of iterations required for optimization. Using a quarter-car model with a Magnetorheological (MR) damper, the method tackles the challenge of non-linear damping by linearizing it and directly integrating it into the MPC cost function. This reduces the computational load and makes the control more suitable for real-time use. The proposed strategy optimizes the damping coefficient to balance ride comfort and stability. Compared to traditional methods, it delivers clear improvements. The system showed a 15% reduction in Root Mean Square (RMS) body acceleration and a 12% improvement in suspension travel over standard Proportional–Integral–Derivative (PID)-tuned damping. It also achieved faster convergence, reaching optimal performance in just 10 iterations. In contrast, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Genetic Algorithms (GAs) required more than 50 iterations to reach such results.
A Comparative Analysis of Advanced Deep Learning Techniques for Accurate Cardiac Arrhythmia Classification Anniah Pratima, K. Gopalakrishna, Sarappadi Narasimha Prasad Engineering Technology and Applied Science Research, 2025 The precise identification of cardiac arrhythmias facilitates accurate diagnosis and proper treatment, but the characterization process remains complex due to disturbances in ECG data signals along with skewed class frequencies and individual patient-specific variations. This study developed a deep learning framework, known as Penalty Regression Function-enhanced Deep Convolutional Neural Network (PRF-DCNN), as a comprehensive solution to cope with signal noise along with class imbalance and variations in patient data. The system starts by applying Correlation Factor-Based Extended Kalman Filtering (CF-EKF) for ECG signal denoising before allowing Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) to extract nonstationary features. The feature selection process along with the reduction of redundant characteristics uses the Frechet Fitness Rank Distribution-Anas Platyrhynchos Optimization (FFRD-APO method. The dataset is balanced by a Balanced Zero Noise GAN (BZNGAN) before Age-Weighted Average-Based Farthest First Clustering (AWA-FFC) refines the clustering process. The St. Petersburg INCART 12-lead ECG dataset was used to test the model, which obtained 99.53% accuracy, 99.10% sensitivity, and 99.67% specificity. The proposed system outperforms current models, showing its capacity for dependable time-critical arrhythmia detection in medical environments.
A robust penalty regression function-based deep convolutional neural network for accurate cardiac arrhythmia classification using electrocardiogram signals Anniah Pratima, Gopalakrishna Kanathur, Sarappadi Narasimha Prasad Iaes International Journal of Artificial Intelligence, 2025 Cardiac arrhythmias are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, necessitating accurate, and timely diagnosis. This paper presents a novel approach for the classification of cardiac arrhythmias using a penalty regression function (PRF)-based deep convolutional neural network (DCNN). The proposed model integrates advanced preprocessing techniques, including frechet with fitness rank distribution-based anas platyrhynchos optimization (FFRD-APO) for feature selection and ensemble empirical mode decomposition (EEMD) for signal decomposition. Utilizing the St. Petersburg INCART 12-lead arrhythmia database, the PRF-DCNN model achieved superior performance metrics: an area under the curve-receiver operating characteristic (AUC-ROC) of 0.97, accuracy of 0.95, precision of 0.93, recall of 0.92, specificity of 0.97, and an F1 score of 0.93. The PRF effectively mitigated overfitting, ensuring robust and reliable classification across varied patient demographics. The model demonstrated significant improvements over traditional methods, offering an efficient solution for real-time cardiac monitoring and diagnosis. This study underscores the potential of PRF-DCNN in enhancing automated arrhythmia detection and lays the groundwork for future research to optimize and validate this approach in diverse clinical settings.

Quantum-Resilient Cryptography: A Survey on Classical and Quantum Algorithms H A Sharath, Jayavrinda Vrindavanam, Saswati Dana, S N Prasad IEEE Access, 2025 The rapid advancement of quantum computing is poised to disrupt the foundations of classical cryptography, calling into question the long-term security of widely used algorithms. Classical cryptographic techniques, including symmetric key algorithms like DES, 3DES and AES, asymmetric schemes such as RSA and ECC, and essential primitives like hash functions and the One-Time Pad (OTP), have been the cornerstone of secure digital communication since their inception. However, the progress of quantum algorithms, spearheaded by Shor and Grover, poses serious threats to these schemes, necessitating a shift in cryptographic design. This paper presents an all-encompassing review of classical cryptographic techniques, along with emerging post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) algorithms that have been developed to provide quantum-resistant security while maintaining compatibility with classical infrastructure. Concurrently, the quantum key distribution (QKD) introduces a radical shift, leveraging quantum mechanics principles to attain unconditional security. This paper elaborates both Discrete Variable (DV-QKD) and Continuous Variable (CV-QKD) approaches, highlighting their operational principles and security models. By providing a relative analysis of classical cryptographic methods, PQC, and quantum cryptography, including QKD protocols and quantum-safe primitives, this work targets to provide a consolidated insight into modern cryptographic landscape and further research toward secure communication in the quantum era.
Design of novel convolution neural network model for lung cancer detection by using sensitivity maps Sugandha Saxena, Sarappadi Narasimha Prasad Iaes International Journal of Artificial Intelligence, 2024 <p>Despite the existence of numerous models for detecting lung cancer, there is still room for achieving higher levels of accuracy. In this paper, a maximum sensitivity neural network (MSNN) has been proposed. As the name suggests, the model aims to achieve high sensitivity and offers a viable remedy to minimize the number of false positive in oder to improve the overall accuracy for lung cancer detection. The MSNN model is a promising model since it can efficiently interpret grayscale lung computed tomography (CT) scan images as inputs and can be trained using just a few images also. This model has surpassed previous deep learning models by obtaining a remarkable sensitivity of 94.6% and an accuracy of 96.9%. A sensitivity map is created, offering important insights into the critical regions for finding malignant nodules. This innovative method has shown outstanding performance in identifying lung cancer with a low false positive rate which can increase the accuracy of medical diagnoses.</p>
