IoT Based Smart Assist System to Monitor Entertainment Spots Occupancy and COVID 19 Screening During the Pandemic.

The greatest threat to the word in recent days is the spread of COVID 19 virus throughout the world. To tackle this problem government of India has implemented various restrictions to be followed to stop the spread of the COVID 19 virus. But most of the time general public forget their responsibilities and don't follow these restrictions, especially in situations like when their favourite hero's movie releases in the theatre, and in spending time in hotels, malls and in other entertainment places in spite of governments occupancy restrictions in those places. In order to address this problem we propose an IoT based Smart System for monitoring the occupancy in such entertainment spots and screen the public entry if they dint follow the protocols such as if they dint wear mask or if they have body temperature. This proposed system is implemented on a Raspberry Pi 3B+ processor which runs on a Broadcom processor. For monitoring the occupancy and screen the visitors for mask, we use a Passive Infrared Sensors and Pi camera to count the person entering into the premises. And we use a MLX90614 Infrared temperature sensor for screening the public entry with high temperature. The complete system is implemented using python programming and the details will be uploaded to cloud, authorities can monitor this from a remote place so that the spread of COVID 19 can be restricted in pubic entertainment spots.

Banana Plant Disease Classification Using Hybrid Convolutional Neural Network.

Banana cultivation is one of the main agricultural elements in India, while the common problem of cultivation is that the crop has been influenced by several diseases, while the pest indications have been needed for discovering the infections initially for avoiding the financial loss to the farmers. This problem will affect the entire banana productivity and directly affects the economy of the country. A hybrid convolution neural network (CNN) enabled banana disease detection, and the classification is proposed to overcome these issues guide the farmers through enabling fertilizers that have to be utilized for avoiding the disease in the initial stages, and the proposed technique shows 99% of accuracy that is compared with the related deep learning techniques.

Fuzzy Guided Autonomous Nursing Robot through Wireless Beacon Network.

Robotics is one of the most emerging technologies today, and are used in a variety of applications, ranging from complex rocket technology to monitoring of crops in agriculture. Robots can be exceptionally useful in a smart hospital environment provided that they are equipped with improved vision capabilities for detection and avoidance of obstacles present in their path, thus allowing robots to perform their tasks without any disturbance. In the particular case of Autonomous Nursing Robots, major essential issues are effective robot path planning for the delivery of medicines to patients, measuring the patient body parameters through sensors, interacting with and informing the patient, by means of voice-based modules, about the doctors visiting schedule, his/her body parameter details, etc. This paper presents an approach of a complete Autonomous Nursing Robot which supports all the aforementioned tasks. In this paper, we present a new Autonomous Nursing Robot system capable of operating in a smart hospital environment area. The objective of the system is to identify the patient room, perform robot path planning for the delivery of medicines to a patient, and measure the patient body parameters, through a wireless BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) beacon receiver and the BLE beacon transmitter at the respective patient rooms. Assuming that a wireless beacon is kept at the patient room, the robot follows the beacon's signal, identifies the respective room and delivers the needed medicine to the patient. A new fuzzy controller system which consists of three ultrasonic sensors and one camera is developed to detect the optimal robot path and to avoid the robot collision with stable and moving obstacles. The fuzzy controller effectively detects obstacles in the robot's vicinity and makes proper decisions for avoiding them. The navigation of the robot is implemented on a BLE tag module by using the AOA (Angle of Arrival) method. The robot uses sensors to measure the patient body parameters and updates these data to the hospital patient database system in a private cloud mode. It also makes uses of a Google assistant to interact with the patients. The robotic system was implemented on the Raspberry Pi using Matlab 2018b. The system performance was evaluated on a PC with an Intel Core i5 processor, while the solar power was used to power the system. Several sensors, namely HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, Logitech HD 720p image sensor, a temperature sensor and a heart rate sensor are used together with a camera to generate datasets for testing the proposed system. In particular, the system was tested on operations taking place in the context of a private hospital in Tirunelveli, Tamilnadu, India. A detailed comparison is performed, through some performance metrics, such as Correlation, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE), against the related works of Deepu et al., Huh and Seo, Chinmayi et al., Alli et al., Xu, Ran et al., and Lee et al. The experimental system validation showed that the fuzzy controller achieves very high accuracy in obstacle detection and avoidance, with a very low computational time for taking directional decisions. Moreover, the experimental results demonstrated that the robotic system achieves superior accuracy in detecting/avoiding obstacles compared to other systems of similar purposes presented in the related works.

Risk analysis reveals that land filling method will have highest impact on maintaining sustainable environment. The results outcome on natural biodegradation may be used for individual house hold wastewater management for the locality.

Deep learning based genome analysis and NGS-RNA LL identification with a novel hybrid model.

The conventional image segmentation techniques have a lot of issues with highest computational cost and low level accuracy for medical image diagnosis and genome analysis. The deep learning based optimization models utilize to predict the liver cancer with RNA genome using CT images and the prediction of genome classification with NGS is a higher probable in recent medical disease classification. This paper proposes a hybrid deep learning technique constructs with SegNet, MultiResUNet, and Krill Herd optimization (KHO) algorithm to perform the extraction of the liver lesions and RNA sequencing that the optimization techniques used into the deep learning method. The proposed technique implements the SegNet for segregating the liver with genome from the CT scan; the MultiResUNet is constructed to perform the extractions of liver lesions. The KHO algorithm is combined with the deep learning approaches for tuning the hyper parameters to every Convolutional neural network model and enhances the segmentation process which may elaborately identifies the sequence that causes the liver classification disease. The proposed technique is compared with the related techniques on liver lesion classification (LL) for NGS in genome. The performance results show that the proposed technique is better to other algorithms on various performance metrics.

ITFDS: Channel-Aware Integrated Time and Frequency-Based Downlink LTE Scheduling in MANET.

One of the crucial problems in Industry 4.0 is how to strengthen the performance of mobile communication within mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) and mobile computational grids (MCGs). In communication, Industry 4.0 needs dynamic network connectivity with higher amounts of speed and bandwidth. In order to support multiple users for video calling or conferencing with high-speed transmission rates and low packet loss, 4G technology was introduced by the 3G Partnership Program (3GPP). 4G LTE is a type of 4G technology in which LTE stands for Long Term Evolution, followed to achieve 4G speeds. 4G LTE supports multiple users for downlink with higher-order modulation up to 64 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM). With wide coverage, high reliability and large capacity, LTE networks are widely used in Industry 4.0. However, there are many kinds of equipment with different quality of service (QoS) requirements. In the existing LTE scheduling methods, the scheduler in frequency domain packet scheduling exploits the spatial, frequency, and multi-user diversity to achieve larger MIMO for the required QoS level. On the contrary, time-frequency LTE scheduling pays attention to temporal and utility fairness. It is desirable to have a new solution that combines both the time and frequency domains for real-time applications with fairness among users. In this paper, we propose a channel-aware Integrated Time and Frequency-based Downlink LTE Scheduling (ITFDS) algorithm, which is suitable for both real-time and non-real-time applications. Firstly, it calculates the channel capacity and quality using the channel quality indicator (CQI). Additionally, data broadcasting is maintained by using the dynamic class-based establishment (DCE). In the time domain, we calculate the queue length before transmitting the next packets. In the frequency domain, we use the largest weight delay first (LWDF) scheduling algorithm to allocate resources to all users. All the allocations would be taken placed in the same transmission time interval (TTI). The new method is compared against the largest weighted delay first (LWDF), proportional fair (PF), maximum throughput (MT), and exponential/proportional fair (EXP/PF) methods. Experimental results show that the performance improves by around 12% compared with those other algorithms.

Design a prototype for automated patient diagnosis in wireless sensor networks.

It is indeed necessary to design of an elderly support mobile healthcare and monitoring system on wireless sensor network (WSN) for dynamic monitoring. It comes from the need for maintenance of healthcare among patients and elderly people that leads to the demand on change in traditional monitoring approaches among chronic disease patients and alert on acute events. In this paper, we propose a new automated patient diagnosis called automated patient diagnosis (AUPA) using ATmega microcontrollers over environmental sensors. AUPA monitors and aggregates data from patients through network connected over web server and mobile network. The scheme supports variable data management and route establishment. Data transfer is established using adaptive route discovery and management approaches. AUPA supports minimizing packet loss and delay, handling erroneous data, and providing optimized decision-making for healthcare support. The performance of AUPA's QoS approach is tested using a set of health-related sensors which gather the patient's data over variable period of time and send from a source to destination AUPA node. Experimental results show that AUPA outperforms the existing schemes, namely SPIN and LEACH, with minimal signal loss rate and a better neighborhood node selection and link selection. It diminishes the jitter compared to the related algorithms. Graphical abstract Stack architecture of AUPA.

Energy-Aware Multipath Routing Scheme Based on Particle Swarm Optimization in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks.

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a collection of autonomous mobile nodes forming an ad hoc network without fixed infrastructure. Dynamic topology property of MANET may degrade the performance of the network. However, multipath selection is a great challenging task to improve the network lifetime. We proposed an energy-aware multipath routing scheme based on particle swarm optimization (EMPSO) that uses continuous time recurrent neural network (CTRNN) to solve optimization problems. CTRNN finds the optimal loop-free paths to solve link disjoint paths in a MANET. The CTRNN is used as an optimum path selection technique that produces a set of optimal paths between source and destination. In CTRNN, particle swarm optimization (PSO) method is primly used for training the RNN. The proposed scheme uses the reliability measures such as transmission cost, energy factor, and the optimal traffic ratio between source and destination to increase routing performance. In this scheme, optimal loop-free paths can be found using PSO to seek better link quality nodes in route discovery phase. PSO optimizes a problem by iteratively trying to get a better solution with regard to a measure of quality. The proposed scheme discovers multiple loop-free paths by using PSO technique.
