Severity Based Light-Weight Encryption Model for Secure Medical Information System

As the amount of medical images transmitted over networks and kept on online servers continues to rise,the need to protect those images digitally is becoming increasingly important.However,due to the massive amounts of multimedia and medical pictures being exchanged,low computational complexity techniques have been developed.Most commonly used algorithms offer very little security and require a great deal of communication,all of which add to the high processing costs associated with using them.First,a deep learning classifier is used to classify records according to the degree of concealment they require.Medical images that aren’t needed can be saved by using this method,which cuts down on security costs.Encryption is one of the most effective methods for protecting medical images after this step.Confusion and dispersion are two fundamental encryption processes.A new encryption algorithm for very sensitive data is developed in this study.Picture splitting with image blocks is nowdeveloped by using Zigzag patterns,rotation of the image blocks,and random permutation for scrambling the blocks.After that,this research suggests a Region of Interest(ROI)technique based on selective picture encryption.For the first step,we use an active contour picture segmentation to separate the ROI from the Region of Background(ROB).Permutation and diffusion are then carried out using a Hilbert curve and a Skew Tent map.Once all of the blocks have been encrypted,they are combined to create encrypted images.The investigational analysis is carried out to test the competence of the projected ideal with existing techniques.

Hybrid Deep Learning Enabled Load Prediction for Energy Storage Systems

Recent economic growth and development have considerably raised energy consumption over the globe.Electric load prediction approaches become essential for effective planning,decision-making,and contract evaluation of the power systems.In order to achieve effective forecasting outcomes with minimumcomputation time,this study develops an improved whale optimization with deep learning enabled load prediction(IWO-DLELP)scheme for energy storage systems(ESS)in smart grid platform.The major intention of the IWO-DLELP technique is to effectually forecast the electric load in SG environment for designing proficient ESS.The proposed IWO-DLELP model initially undergoes pre-processing in two stages namely min-max normalization and feature selection.Besides,partition clustering approach is applied for the decomposition of data into distinct clusters with respect to distance and objective functions.Moreover,IWO with bidirectional gated recurrent unit(BiGRU)model is applied for the prediction of load and the hyperparameters are tuned by the use of IWO algorithm.The experiment analysis reported the enhanced results of the IWO-DLELP model over the recent methods interms of distinct evaluation measures.

An Efficient Method for Heat Recovery Process and Temperature Optimization

Flue gas heat loss accounts for a significant component of theoverall heat loss for coal-fired boilers in power plants. The flue gas absorbsmore heat as the exhaust gas temperature rises, which reduces boiler efficiencyand raises coal consumption. Additionally, if the exhaust gas temperatureis too high, a lot of water must be used to cool the flue gas for the wetflue gas desulfurization system to function well, which has an impact onthe power plant’s ability to operate profitably. It is consequently vital totake steps to lower exhaust gas temperatures in order to increase boilerefficiency and decrease the amount of coal and water used. Desulfurizationperformance may be enhanced and water use can be decreased by reasonableflue gas characteristics at the entry. This study analyzed the unit’s energyconsumption, investment, and coal savings while proposing four couplingstrategies for regulating flue gas temperature and waste heat recovery. Agraded flue gas conditioning and waste heat recovery plan was presentedunder the condition of ensuring high desulfurization efficiency, along withthe notion of minimizing energy loss owing to energy inflow temperaturedifference. Numerical results show that the proposed methods improved thesystem performance and reduced the water consumption and regulated theboiler temperature.

An Optimal Algorithm for Resource Allocation in D2D Communication

The number of mobile devices accessing wireless networks isskyrocketing due to the rapid advancement of sensors and wireless communicationtechnology. In the upcoming years, it is anticipated that mobile datatraffic would rise even more. The development of a new cellular networkparadigm is being driven by the Internet of Things, smart homes, and moresophisticated applications with greater data rates and latency requirements.Resources are being used up quickly due to the steady growth of smartphonedevices andmultimedia apps. Computation offloading to either several distantclouds or close mobile devices has consistently improved the performance ofmobile devices. The computation latency can also be decreased by offloadingcomputing duties to edge servers with a specific level of computing power.Device-to-device (D2D) collaboration can assist in processing small-scaleactivities that are time-sensitive in order to further reduce task delays. The taskoffloading performance is drastically reduced due to the variation of differentperformance capabilities of edge nodes. Therefore, this paper addressed thisproblem and proposed a new method for D2D communication. In thismethod, the time delay is reduced by enabling the edge nodes to exchangedata samples. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has betterperformance than traditional algorithm.

Numerical analysis of hemodynamic parameters in stenosed arteries under pulsatile flow conditions

This research studies the changes in flow patterns and hemodynamic parameters of diverse shapes and sizes of stenosis.Six different shapes and sizes of stenosis are constructed to investigate the variations in hemodynamics as the morphology changes.Changes in shape(trapezoidal and bell-shaped)and sizes of stenosis change the stresses on the walls and their flow patterns.TAWSS and OSI results specify that trapezoidal stenosis exerts greater stress than bell-shaped stenosis.Also,as the length of the trapezoidal stenosis increases,the TAWSS increases,whereas the trend is the opposite for bell-shaped stenosis.Later,this paper also studies different degrees of stenosis extracted from real images.Changes in velocity flow patterns,wall shear stress(WSS),Time-averaged wall shear stress(TAWSS)and Oscillatory shear index(OSI)have been studied for these images.Results illustrate that the peak velocity rises drastically as the stenosis percentage increases.Negative velocity is seen close to the artery's walls,indicating flow separation.This flow separation region is seen throughout the cycle except in the accelerating flow region.An increase in stenosis also increases WSS and TAWSS drastically.Negative WSS is seen downstream of stenosis,indicating flow recirculation.Such negative WSS in the blood vessels also promotes endothelial dysfunction.OSI values greater than 0.2 are seen near the stenosis region,indicating atherosclerosis growth.Regions of high OSI and low TAWSS are also identified,indicating probable regions of plaque development.

Organic Polymer Materials for Light Emitting Diode Applications

There are two common types of polymers(thermoplas­tics and thermosets),which have been classified by vari­ous methods depending on their molecular structures.The bonding of molecular chains is the fundamental physical difference between these two polymer types.The polymer types are named based on their general thermal and pro­cessing characteristics,and chemical structure,which in turn significantly influence their polymer properties[1].
