    Prathyakshini, Prathwini
    Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Inventive Systems and Control Icisc 2025, 2025
    Most social media information is utilized for sentiment analysis, reviews, viewpoints, and impact. The suggested approach looks at the posts and comments to determine a person's level of stress by extending sentiment and evaluating emotions. Large datasets of tweets can be subjected to sentiment analysis with machine learning techniques, deep learning models, and BERT for sentiment categorization. Additionally, Latent Dirichlet Allocation is utilized that gathers word groupings and similar phrases that most accurately represent a set of documents by scanning a collection of documents, identifying patterns of words and phrases amongst them, and gathering these data. These emotions can also be utilized to analyze stress and sadness effectively. Both the BERT model and other machine learning models demonstrate excellent detection accuracy. The insights gained from this research contribute significantly to improving mental health. It is evident from the results that the trained model can identify the emotional state based on social interactions when analyzed using a variety of macro and micro variables.

    Sakshi R, Prathwini, Prathyakshini, Rashmi N, Archana Praveen Kumar
    Proceedings of 3rd International Conference on Intelligent Cyber Physical Systems and Internet of Things Icoici 2025, 2025
    In the field of dermatology, identifying the exact stage of hair loss is essential for early diagnosis, customized treatment planning, and improved patient results. In this study, the performance of three deep learning methods ResNet, VGG16, and a custom convolutional neural network (CNN) for categorizing scalp photos into seven distinct stages of hair loss is compared. A balanced data set of 1,540 images was preprocessed to create subsets for training, validation, and testing. Based on experimental results, the custom CNN achieved a high accuracy of 97.40%, precision of 0.96, recall of 0.98, and F1 score of 0.97, demonstrating a great balance between precision and generalization. With the maximum accuracy of 99.35%, ResNet showed overfitting, which resulted in a lower recall of 0.89. The domain-specific character of the data set made it difficult for VGG16 to generalize, despite its consistent performance with 96.74% precision. The results show that lightweight bespoke architectures may be more appropriate for particular datasets, providing steady and consistent predictions, even when transfer learning methods can produce high accuracy. In addition to highlighting the potential of enhanced CNN models for practical applications in clinical and telemedicine settings, this study adds to the expanding corpus of research on AI-driven dermatological diagnoses.

    Harshith P, Anantha Murthy, Harshitha G M, Prathwini, Keerthi Shetty, Roshan D Suvaris
    2025 9th International Conference on Computational System and Information Technology for Sustainable Solutions Csitss 2025, 2025
    Large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4, Claude 3.5, and Gemini 2.5 are now widely used in natural language processing tasks. But their high inference cost and computing requirements make it hard to scale them, especially in areas with limited resources such as education, customer support, and interactive AI tools. This work proposes a cost-efficient inference setup that uses semantic embeddings from a BERT-based model, a LightGBM classifier to estimate prompt difficulty, and dynamic routing logic to pick the most appropriate LLM based on a balance between cost and accuracy. The system was tested on 990 prompts taken from OpenBookQA (Easy), GSM8K (Medium), and MMLU (Hard). It achieved a weighted F1 score of 0.89, while cutting average inference cost by over 95% from $12.08 to $0.34 per 1,000 prompts compared to always using high-end models. Both semantic embedding and routing logic were crucial in maint aining good performance at cheap cost, according to ablation stu dies, demonstrating that promptaware routing can be applied to real-world LLM inference systems and scale well. This research also evaluate routing framework end-to-end on a mixed workload of conversational, summarisation and code-generation tasks to measure its impact on latency and throughput. Across 1,200 real-world prompts, the system achieves a 40% reduction in average inference time and routes over 70% of queries to lower-capacity models without dropping overall response quality-maintaining an average human-judged acceptability score within 2% of always using the top-tier model. Finally, we release our implementation as a set of Dockerised microservices, complete with pre-trained difficulty predictors and REST endpoints, to simplify integration into existing LLM pipelines.
