A contributing factor to traffic accidents is brake pad failure, which diminishes braking system performance and extends braking distance. This work develops a prototype utilizing internet of things (IoT) to measure brake pad thickness, hence enhancing driver awareness through real-time monitoring. The system establishes the thickness detection threshold at 75% (3-4 mm) and 50% (5–6 mm) as a cautionary parameter. The thickness parameter employs an American wire gauge (AWG) 18 cable to connect to the ESP32 microcontroller. The web-based IoT monitoring interface employs Laravel. This method enables drivers to get prompt notifications regarding the decrease in brake pad thickness, hence permitting urgent preventative maintenance to mitigate the risk of accidents. The system underwent testing through friction at a rotational speed of 600 to 6,000 rpm. The test findings indicated that the sensor precisely measured the brake pad thickness with a prototype response time of a second. This system is suitable for implementation on old model vehicles that do not have an early warning system. The installation of this technology is anticipated to enhance driver knowledge of the state of the brake pads, hence potentially diminishing the danger of brake system failure caused by unmonitored pad wear.

Prediction models for beef meat quality are necessary because production and consumption were significant and increasing yearly. This study aims to create a prediction model for beef freshness quality using the random forest regressor (RFR) algorithm and to improve the accuracy of the predictions using hyperparameter tuning. The use of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in predicting beef quality is an easy, cheap, and fast technique. This study used six meat quality parameters as prediction target variables for the test. The R² metric was used to evaluate the prediction results and compare the performance of the RFR with default parameters versus the RFR with hyperparameter tuning (RandomSearchCV). Using default parameters, the R-squared (R²) values for color (L*), drip loss (%), pH, storage time (hour), total plate colony (TPC in cfu/g), and water moisture (%) were 0.789, 0.839, 0.734, 0.909, 0.845, and 0.544, respectively. After applying hyperparameter tuning, these R² scores increased to 0.885, 0.931, 0.843, 0.957, 0.903, and 0.739, indicating an overall improvement in the model’s performance. The average performance increase for prediction results for all beef quality parameters is 0.0997 or 14% higher than the default parameters.

Khusnul Khotimah , Sugiyarto Surono , Aris Thobirin
The advancement of deep learning in computer vision has result in substantial progress, particularly in image classification tasks. However, challenges arise when the model is applied to small and unbalanced datasets, such as X-ray data in medical applications. This study aims to improve the classification performance of fracture X-ray images using the EfficientNet architecture optimized with grey wolf optimization (GWO). EfficientNet was chosen for its efficiency in handling small datasets, while GWO was applied to optimize hyperparameters, including learning rate, weight decay, and dropout to improve model accuracy. Random cropping, rotation, flipping, color jittering, and random erasing, were used to expand the diversity of the dataset, and class weighting is applied to overcome class imbalance. The evaluation uses accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score metrics. The combination of EfficientNetB0 and GWO resulted in an average 4.5% improvement in model performance over baseline methods. This approach provides benefits in developing deep learning methods for medical image classification, especially in dealing with small and imbalanced datasets.

HepatoScan: Ensemble classification learning models for liver cancer disease detection

10.11591/csit.v6i2.p167-175
Tella Sumallika , Raavi Satya Prasad
Liver cancer is a dangerous disease that poses significant risks to human health. The complexity of early detection of liver cancer increases due to the unpredictable growth of cancer cells. This paper introduces HepatoScan, an ensemble classification to detect and diagnose liver cancer tumors from liver cancer datasets. The proposed HepatoScan is the integrated approach that classifies the three types of liver cancers: hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and angiosarcoma. In the initial stage, liver cancer starts in the liver, while the second stage spreads from the liver to other parts of the body. Deep learning is an emerging domain that develops advanced learning models to detect and diagnose liver cancers in the early stages. We train the pre-trained model InceptionV3 on liver cancer datasets to identify advanced patterns associated with cancer tumors or cells. For accurate segmentation and classification of liver lesions in computed tomography (CT) scans, the ensemble multi-class classification (EMCC) combines U-Net and mask region-based convolutional network (R-CNN). In this context, researchers use the CT scan images from Kaggle to analyze the liver cancer tumors for experimental analysis. Finally, quantitative results show that the proposed approach obtained an improved disease detection rate with mean squared error (MSE)-11.34 and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR)-10.34, which is high compared with existing models such as fuzzy C-means (FCM) and kernel fuzzy C-means (KFCM). The classification results obtained based on detection rate with accuracy-0.97%, specificity-0.99%, recall-0.99%, and F1S-0.97% are very high compared with other existing models.

Moulai Khatir Ahmed Nassim , Ziani Zakarya
The increasing demand for reliable cryptographic operations for securing current systems has given birth to well-advanced and developed hardware solutions, in this paper we consider issues within the traditional symmetric advanced encryption standard (AES) cryptographic system as major challenges. Additionally, problems such as throughput limitations, reliability, and unified key management are also discussed and tackled through appropriate hierarchical transformation techniques. To overcome these challenges, this paper presents the design and field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based implementation of a cryptographic coprocessor optimized for substitution box (S-Box) operation which is considered as a key component in many cryptographic algorithms such as AES. The architecture of the co-processor proposed in this article is based on the advanced characteristics of FPGAs to accelerate the S-Box transformation, improve throughput and reduce latency compared to software implementations. We discussed carefully the design considerations along with resource utilization, speed optimization, and energy efficiency. The obtained experimental results present significant performance improvements, the FPGA-based implementation ensured higher throughput and lower execution time compared to traditional central processing unit (CPU)-based methods. We presented in this work the effectiveness of using FPGAs for the acceleration of cryptographic operations in secure applications which will therefore be a robust solution for the next generation of secure systems.

The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into the field of medicine has created new strategies in enhancing the detection of disease, with a focus on the identification of eye diseases such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration associated with age, which can lead to blindness if not detected and treated early enough. Driven by the need to combat blindness, which affects approximately 39 million people globally, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This research offers a web-based, real time approach to classifying eye diseases from fundus images due to user friendliness. Three pre-trained convolutional neural network (CNN) models are adopted, namely ResNet-50, Inception-v3, and MobileNetV3. The models were trained on a dataset of 8000 fundus images subdivided into four classes: cataract, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and normal eyes. The performance of the models was evaluated in 3-way (normal eye and two diseases) and 4-way (normal eye and three diseases). ResNet-50 had higher performances, with 98% and 97% accuracy in the respective classifications, compared to InceptionV3 and MobileNetV3. Consequently, ResNet-50 was used in an online application that made real-time diagnoses. This research findings reveal the potential of CNNs in the healthcare industry, particularly in reducing over-reliance on specialists and increasing access to quality diagnostic technologies. Especially in critical areas such as this with limited healthcare resources, where the technology can create significant gaps in disease detection and control.

Surabhi Anuradha , Martha Sheshikala
This study explores text summarization, a critical component of natural language processing (NLP), specifically targeting scientific documents. Traditional extractive summarization, which relies on the original wording, often results in disjointed sequences of sentences and fails to convey key ideas concisely. To address these issues and ensure comprehensive inclusion of relevant details, our research aims to improve the coherence and completeness of summaries. We employed 25 different large language models (LLMs) to evaluate their performance in generating abstractive summaries of scholarly scientific documents. A recall-oriented evaluation of the generated summaries revealed that LLMs such as 'Claude v2.1,' 'PPLX 70B Online,' and 'Mistral 7B Instruct' demonstrated exceptional performance with ROUGE-1 scores of 0.92, 0.88, and 0.85, respectively, supported by high precision and recall values from bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) scores (0.902, 0.894, and 0.888). These findings offer valuable insights for NLP researchers, laying the foundation for future advancements in LLMs for summarization. The study highlights potential improvements in text summarization techniques, benefiting various NLP applications.

Cervical cancer remains a significant health problem, especially in developing countries. Early detection is critical for effective treatment. Convolutional neural networks (CNN) have shown promise in automated cervical cancer screening, but their performance depends on pap smear image quality. This study investigates the impact of various image preprocessing techniques on CNN performance for cervical cancer classification using the SIPaKMeD dataset. Three preprocessing techniques were evaluated: PeronaMalik diffusion (PMD) filter for noise reduction, contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) for image contrast enhancement, and the proposed hybrid PMD filter-CLAHE approach. The enhanced image datasets were evaluated on pretrained models, such as ResNet-34, ResNet-50, SqueezeNet-1.0, MobileNet-V2, EfficientNet-B0, EfficientNet-B1, DenseNet121, and DenseNet-201. The results show that hybrid preprocessing PMD filter-CLAHE can improve the pap smear image quality and CNN architecture performance compared to the original images. The maximum metric improvements are 13.62% for accuracy, 10.04% for precision, 13.08% for recall, and 14.34% for F1-score. The proposed hybrid PMD filter-CLAHE technique offers a new perspective in improving cervical cancer classification performance using CNN architectures.

Stress on the micro-electromechnical system (MEMS) sensors significantly decreases sensor accuracy. Thermomechanical stresses induced by the packaging assembly process and external loads during operation induce a shift in the output signal (offset) of MEMS sensors. To achieve high precision in accelerometers, gyroscopes, and other MEMS devices, it is crucial to employ advanced modeling and simulation techniques to mitigate stress-induced offset drift. Therefore, this paper aims to explore and simulate stress on inertial sensors by designing a gyroscope tuning fork with a perforated proof mass to reduce the damping effect. Our findings provide insights for decreasing stress by varying the material and thickness of the inertial sensor. The least stress was obtained from an inertial silicon sensor with 5 and 20 mm thicknesses.

Zigbee, a key technology in the field of wireless networks for the Internet of Things, plays a significant role in the development of modern wireless network technologies. In this study, the analysis of coordinator failures in ZigBee networks with different topologies (“star”, “tree”, “mesh”) was carried out using the OPNET Modeler software tool. The problems related to the reliability and efficiency of systems using Zigbee technology are considered. Simulation of successive coordinator failures allowed us to compare the performance of topologies, revealing that the tree topology provides high traffic speed and bandwidth, but suffers from significant packet loss and delays. In turn, the star topology demonstrates minimal latency and high speed, and the mesh topology has better reliability with less packet loss, but the lowest speed and bandwidth. The findings emphasize the importance of choosing the optimal topology to ensure the efficiency and reliability of Zigbee networks in a volatile environment and increased load.

Cybersecurity becomes a crucial part within the information management framework of internet of things (IoT) device networks. The large-scale distribution of IoT networks and the complexity of communication protocols used are contributing factors to the widespread vulnerabilities of IoT devices. The implementation of transfer learning models in deep learning can achieve optimal performance faster than traditional machine learning models, as they leverage knowledge from previous models that already understand these features. Base model was built using the 1-dimension convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) method, using training and test data from the source domain dataset. Model 1 was constructed using the same method as base model. The test and training data used for model 1 were from the target domain dataset. This model successfully detected known attacks at a rate of 99.352%, but did not perform well in detecting unknown attacks, with an accuracy of 84.645%. Model 2 is an enhancement of model 1, incorporating transfer learning from the base model. Its results significantly improved compared to model 1 testing. Model 2 has an accuracy and precision rate of 98.86% and 99.17 %, respectively, allowing it to detect previously unknown attacks. Even with a slight decrease in normal detection, most attacks can still be detected.
