Analysing the Quality of Food Using Convolution Neural Network and Fuzzy Classifier in Hyperspectral Imagery
Authors: Devi T. Arumuga Maria , Darwin.P  , Jose Mebin , Kumar P. 
Published: August 2023

Introduction:
This study introduces a novel evaluation approach by combining a convolutional neural network (CNN) with a fuzzy neural network (FNN). This approach by utilizing the fuzzy neural network with a few connected layers has the capability to incorporate feature information, thus enhancing the overall functionality of the neural network. In this approach, the CNN generates feature maps (also referred to as outputs) that represent membership values. These feature maps are then input into the fuzzy layers during the training phase. This integration of feature maps and fuzzy layers enables the network to work with both crisp and fuzzy values, due to the additional information generated within the fuzzy set. As a result, an improvement in the classification accuracy of this innovative approach is reported as compared to traditional methods. By utilizing fuzzy neural networks, which can process both crisp and fuzzy values, this approach capitalizes on the expanded information provided by fuzzy sets.

Methods:
In our proposed model, cross-validation tests were conducted. However, the effectiveness of our model relies on having a larger dataset for training sequences. Currently, our dataset is limited in size. During testing, we used a dataset with a greater amount of information, which helps reveal the model's capability to classify objects. This is particularly important when dealing with cases where crucial information is missing.

Results:
The convolution neural network consists of a tuned convolution layer, heuristic activation operation, and parallel element merge layer, which is manipulated by the fuzzy classifier output based on the food image context extractor.

Conclusion:
In this study, the food quality was analyzed through visual IDE. Furthermore, the hyperspectral output image was also extracted with good accuracy.

Abstract:
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder determined by a combination
of both genetic and environmental factors. Despite wide investigations, the role of chronic
exposure to environmental pollutants is still rather unknown. Among natural toxins, the mycotoxins
have received major attention only in the last few years, due to both technical and scientific achievements
that allowed to disentangle many important features of the complex fungal biology. Whereas
the effects of acute and high-dose mycotoxin exposure are well known, the potential effects of chronic
and low-dose exposure on neurodegeneration have not been broadly elucidated. In this review, we
have summarized all the studies concerning environmental exposure to unknown substances that
caused ALS outbreaks all over the world, reinterpreting in light of the new scientific acquisitions and
highlighting the potential and neglected role of mycotoxins. Then, we focused on recent papers about
food exposure to mycotoxin, mycobiome and fungal infections in ALS and other neurodegenerative
diseases. We analyzed the gaps of current literature that lead to an undervaluation of mycotoxins as
detrimental molecules. By listing all the most important mycotoxins and analyzing all the biological
pathways that they can affect, we explained the reasons why they need to be considered in the next epidemiological
studies on ALS and other neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases. In conclusion,
after suggesting some possible solutions to mitigate mycotoxin exposure risk, we affirm that
future collaborations between scientists and policymakers are important to develop sustainable interventions
and promote health through dietary diversity.

Authors: Tamis Zahra , Sadeghi Fatemeh , Heydari Aigin , Mirza Saima Shahzad , Morowvat Mohammad Hossein 
Published: August 2023

Introduction:
In the present study, we have examined different aspects and potentials
of stem cells for the management of patients infected with COVID-19.

Background:
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has been reported in most of the
countries and territories (>230) of the world with ∼686 million confirmed cases (as of Apr.
22, 2023). While the scientific community is working to develop vaccines and develop
drugs against the COVID-19 pandemic, novel alternative therapies may reduce the mortality
rate. Recently, the application of stem cells for critically ill COVID-19 patients in a
small group of patients has been examined.

Methods:
We searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Google Scholar up to July 2022.
Those studies that reviewed COVID-19 and cell therapy potentials were entered into the
study. Moreover, some recently published patents were exploited and reviewed. Patentscope,
USPTO, Espacenet, Free Patents Online, and Google Patents were used for patent
searches.

Results:
Cell-based therapy as a modality of regenerative medicine is considered one of
the most promising disciplines in the fields of modern science and medicine. Such an advanced
technology offers endless possibilities for transformative and potentially curative
treatments for some of the most life-threatening diseases. This therapeutic tool can be useful
to reduce the rate of mortality. There have been several published patents for different
stem cell therapy platforms in recent years.

Conclusion:
Stem cell therapy could be considered a safe and effective therapeutic strategy
to reduce death cases in patients infected with COVID-19. Besides, stem cell therapy
might increase the pulmonary functions in the patients, it suppresses the occurring inflammations
and ameliorates the symptoms.
Expression and clinical significance of Cat B and sICAM-1 in the GCF of patients with peri-implantitis
Authors: Wang Qinglian , Lin Jichao , Lin Yanjun , Yu Youcheng 
Published: August 2023

Background:
Peri-implantitis is an irreversible disease occurring in the tissues surrounding dental implants, and it is characterized by decreased osseointegration, progressive bone loss, bone resorption, and increased pocket formation and purulence.

Objective:
This study was conducted to elucidate the expression and clinical significance of Cat B and sICAM-1 in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of patients with peri-implantitis.

Methods:
A total of 154 patients, who underwent implant denture treatment in our hospital, were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into a peri-implantitis group (65 cases) and a healthy implant group (89 cases) according to whether there was inflammation around the implant. All subjects were assessed for periodontal clinical indicators (plaque index (PLI), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), and sulcus bleeding index (SBI)). The levels of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6) and Cat B and sICAM-1 in the GCF were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Pearson test was used to analyze the correlation between the levels of Cat B and sICAM-1 in GCF and PD, SBI, CAL, PLI, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6. ROC curve was used for the evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of Cat B and sICAM-1 for peri-implantitis.

Results:
Patients in the peri-implantitis group presented increased PD, SBI, CAL, PLI, and levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, Cat B, and sICAM-1 in GCF in comparison to those in the healthy implant group (P < 0.05). Pearson test exhibited that the levels of Cat B and sICAM-1 in the GCF were positively correlated with PD, SBI, CAL, PLI, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6. ROC analysis revealed that the area under the curve for Cat B and sICAM-1 levels alone and in combination were 0.798, 0.741, and 0.829, respectively, with sensitivity of 58.46%, 55.38%, and 73.85% and the specificity of 91.01%, 89.89%, and 84.27%, respectively.

Conclusion:
Our study demonstrates that Cat B and sICAM-1 are upregulated in the GCF of patients with peri-implantitis and correlate with the inflammation level and the degree of disease, and have a predictive value in the development of peri-implantitis.

Other:
Cat B and sICAM-1 have certain diagnostic abilities for peri-implantitis. However, further experiments with a larger number of subjects are necessary to elucidate whether these molecules could be served as vital biomarkers of peri-implantitis.
Secure Patient Data Monitoring and Efficient Routing Optimization using
a Hyperelliptic Curve Cryptography with Fuzzy-based Priority in WBSN
Authors: Mariappan Dinesh Babu , Saminathan R. , Baalamurugan K.M. 
Published: August 2023

Aims and Background:
Wireless Body Sensor Network (WBSN) technology is one of
the major research areas in the medical and entertainment industries. A wireless sensor network
(WSN) is a dense sensor network that senses environmental conditions, processes, and outgoing
data at the sink node. A WBSN develops patient monitoring systems that provide the flexibility and
mobility needed to monitor patient health. In data communications, it is difficult to find flexible optical
routing paths, switching capabilities, and packet processing in the composition of optical networks.
Information-centric networks (ICNs) are a new network model and are different from information-
centric models. The priority of the information-centric model is the communication network.

Objectives:
In the existing literature, such methods are typically developed using computationally
expensive procedures, such as bilinear pairing, elliptic curve operations, etc., which are unsuitable
for biomedical devices with limited resources. Using the concept of hyperelliptic curve cryptography
(HECC), we propose a new solution: a smart card-based two-factor mutual authentication
scheme. In this new scheme, HECC’s finest properties, such as compact parameters and key sizes,
are utilized to enhance the real-time performance of an IoT-based TMIS system.

Methodology:
A fuzzy–based Priority Aware Data Sharing (FPADS) method is introduced to
schedule the priority data and monitor the transmission length. The child node adjusts the transmission
speed of the cluster head with the help of a fuzzy logic controller (FLC).

Results:
The proposed model estimated the traffic load of the child node and the priority of the different
amounts of data to be transmitted. The principle of scheduling data packets to be developed is
based on the precedence of the data with the lowest transmit length in the network.

Conclusion:
The proposed FPADS performance increases in terms of scheduling time utilisation,
traffic distribution, and mean delay. Simulations have been done using NS2, and the outcomes have
shown that the proposed methodology is efficient and improves the overall QoS of the system.

Comprehensive Survey
Authors: Singh Savita , Verma Ankita 
Published: August 2023

Abstract:
This paper aims to provide a comprehensive study of the underlying buffer management
issues and challenges in developing an efficient DTN routing protocol. Our aim is to begin with the
discussion of buffer management schemes in DTNs in full generality and then dive in-depth, covering
aspects of buffer management. Buffer strategies are used to determine which packets need to be
forwarded or dropped. This paper will focus on the variety of buffer management strategies available,
providing a comprehensive survey and analysis. We have also conducted an empirical analysis
using simulator ONE to analyze the buffering time in various primary routing protocols such as
Epidemic, Spary-and-wait (SNW), Prophet, Encounter based Routing (EBR) and Inter-Contact
Delay and Location Information based Routing (ICDLIR). For these algorithms, it is also observed
how varying the buffer size effect the delivery probability and overhead.

Authors: Rohani Elisa Dwi , Baiquni Muhammad , Wijono Djoko , Soeprihanto John 
Published: August 2023

Cave tracing activities have now become a special interest in tourist activities with kars cave as a tracing ground. One of the attractions is because of the physical shape of the cave or what is called (speleotherm). Speleotourism has a charm and experience that is different from other tourist destinations because not all regions in Indonesia have karst areas that are ideal to be developed as Speleo tourism areas, one of which is Gunungkidul Regency which has 5 caves which are geosites, one of which is Cokro Cave. Cokro Cave was first discovered by nature lovers from the Acintyacunyata Speleological Club (ASC) community in 1993, and in 2009 it began to develop into a tourist attraction managed directly by the local community. This study was conducted to explain how the development of special interest tourism occurred in the tourist attraction of Cokro Cave by utilizing the characteristics and uniqueness of the cave, but still paying attention to the preservation of the cave, as well as the role of local communities, government, and tourism development stakeholders. The concept of special interest tourism that can be applied in the Cokro Cave Area is the management of special interest tourism by limiting the number of visitors to maintain the preservation of the context and collaboration with tourist attractions around and with the Pokdarwis (Kelompok Sadar Wisata) management of the Cave Area. Referring to the six criteria of special interest tourism based on experts, it can be seen that the principles of special interest tourism have not been fully fulfilled in the tourist attraction of Cokro Cave, including no periodic studies on the condition of the cave, as well as monitoring the condition of the cave.

Authors: Syzdykova Zhibek , Koblandin Kalybek , Medvedev Nikolay 
Published: August 2023

This research aimed to identify the economic and cultural factors of migration in Europe within the context of contemporary economic and social realities. To achieve the research objective, a comprehensive multi-stage research project was developed and implemented, incorporating the advantages of statistical analysis, monitoring, rating and summary statistics. The research relied on harmonized and validated statistical data from 48 European countries, divided into four sub-regions, serving as the informational foundation for the study. Using summary statistics on migration factors in the context of economic and cultural factors made it possible to demonstrate the importance of considering cultural human rights in the country’s migration policy. An interpretation of migration practices in Europe by this means enables us to highlight the cultural context as a determining indicator, based on an analysis of objective indicators in the development of migration processes. Furthermore, the study shows that the high quality of life and cultural attractiveness of the national policy stimulates the migration intentions of a person to seek out countries with more developed economies.The findings of this study hold relevance for policymakers and specialists in public administration, particularly those involved in the regulation and control of migration. Additionally, academic researchers can benefit from the empirical regularities established in this research and the identified prospective avenues for future investigations.
