Alzheimer's disease is a severe neuron disease that damages brain cells which leads to permanent loss of memory also called dementia. Many people die due to this disease every year because this is not curable but early detection of this disease can help restrain the spread. Alzheimer's is most common in elderly people in the age bracket of 65 and above. An automated system is required for early detection of disease that can detect and classify the disease into multiple Alzheimer classes. Deep learning and machine learning techniques are used to solve many medical problems like this. The proposed system Alzheimer Disease detection utilizes transfer learning on Multi-class classification using brain Medical resonance imagining (MRI) working to classify the images in four stages, Mild demented (MD), Moderate demented (MOD), Non-demented (ND), Very mild demented (VMD). Simulation results have shown that the proposed system model gives 91.70% accuracy. It also observed that the proposed system gives more accurate results as compared to previous approaches.

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) enables digital devices to gather, infer, and broadcast health data via the cloud platform. The phenomenal growth of the IoMT is fueled by many factors, including the widespread and growing availability of wearables and the ever-decreasing cost of sensor-based technology. The cost of related healthcare will rise as the global population of elderly people grows in parallel with an overall life expectancy that demands affordable healthcare services, solutions, and developments. IoMT may bring revolution in the medical sciences in terms of the quality of healthcare of elderly people while entangled with machine learning (ML) algorithms. The effectiveness of the smart healthcare (SHC) model to monitor elderly people was observed by performing tests on IoMT datasets. For evaluation, the precision, recall, fscore, accuracy, and ROC values are computed. The authors also compare the results of the SHC model with different conventional popular ML techniques, e.g., support vector machine (SVM), K-nearest neighbor (KNN), and decision tree (DT), to analyze the effectiveness of the result.

The importance of accurate livestock identification for the success of modern livestock industries cannot be overstated as it is essential for a variety of purposes, including the traceability of animals for food safety, disease control, the prevention of false livestock insurance claims, and breeding programs. Biometric identification technologies, such as thumbprint recognition, facial feature recognition, and retina pattern recognition, have been traditionally used for human identification but are now being explored for animal identification as well. Muzzle patterns, which are unique to each animal, have shown promising results as a primary biometric feature for identification in recent studies. Muzzle pattern image scanning is a widely used method in biometric identification, but there is a need to improve the efficiency of real-time image capture and identification. This study presents a novel identification approach using a state-of-the-art object detector, Yolo (v7), to automate the identification process. The proposed system consists of three stages: detection of the animal’s face and muzzle, extraction of muzzle pattern features using the SIFT algorithm and identification of the animal using the FLANN algorithm if the extracted features match those previously registered in the system. The Yolo (v7) object detector has mean average precision of 99.5% and 99.7% for face and muzzle point detection, respectively. The proposed system demonstrates the capability to accurately recognize animals using the FLANN algorithm and has the potential to be used for a range of applications, including animal security and health concerns, as well as livestock insurance. In conclusion, this study presents a promising approach for the real-time identification of livestock animals using muzzle patterns via a combination of automated detection and feature extraction algorithms.

The communication network of Unmanned Aerial Drones (UAD) is expected to become a vital element in the development of next-generation wireless networks, offering flexible infrastructure that extends network coverage to remote or disaster-stricken locations while enhancing capacity during critical events and large-scale emergencies. As UAD technology evolves, its role in ensuring consistent, widespread connectivity becomes more essential, though it faces challenges such as high latency, low spectral efficiency, and fairness issues across multiple drones. This research presents an optimization framework designed for multi-UAD communication networks based on Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) to address these difficulties. The framework focuses on optimizing ground user-to-UAD associations and drone power allocation to maximize spectral efficiency. The primary optimization problem is a mixed-integer, nonconvex, and nonlinear task, which seeks to maximize the sum-rate while addressing issues of UAD-user association and power distribution, complicated by interference and binary decision variables. To manage this complexity, we first optimize UAD-user associations under fixed NOMA power allocation and then optimize the power allocation for each NOMA-enabled ground user connected to the drones. Our numerical results show that this framework provides better performance than traditional orthogonal multiple access (OMA)-based optimization methods and other benchmark NOMA-based techniques, offering improved spectral efficiency, lower complexity, and faster convergence, making it an effective solution for enhancing UAD network performance across a range of dynamic scenarios.

In the era of advancement in information technology and the smart healthcare industry 5.0, the diagnosis of human diseases is still a challenging task. The accurate prediction of human diseases, especially deadly cancer diseases in the smart healthcare industry 5.0, is of utmost importance for human wellbeing. In recent years, the global Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) industry has evolved at a dizzying pace, from a small wristwatch to a big aircraft. With this advancement in the healthcare industry, there also rises the issue of data privacy.

Furthermore, to strengthen the proposed model, a fused weighted deep extreme machine learning methodology is adopted for better prediction of lung disease. The MATLAB 2020a tool is used for simulation and results. The proposed fused weighted federated deep extreme machine learning model is used for the validation of the best prediction of cancer disease in the smart healthcare industry 5.0. The result of the proposed fused weighted federated deep extreme machine learning approach achieved 97.2%, which is better than the state-of-the-art published methods.

Cloud computing makes dynamic resource provisioning more accessible. Monitoring a functioning service is crucial, and changes are made when particular criteria are surpassed. This research explores the decentralized multi-cloud environment for allocating resources and ensuring the Quality of Service (QoS), estimating the required resources, and modifying allotted resources depending on workload and parallelism due to resources. Resource allocation is a complex challenge due to the versatile service providers and resource providers. The engagement of different service and resource providers needs a cooperation strategy for a sustainable quality of service. The objective of a coherent and rational resource allocation is to attain the quality of service. It also includes identifying critical parameters to develop a resource allocation mechanism. A framework is proposed based on the specified parameters to formulate a resource allocation process in a decentralized multi-cloud environment. The three main parameters of the proposed framework are data accessibility, optimization, and collaboration. Using an optimization technique, these three segments are further divided into subsets for resource allocation and long-term service quality. The CloudSim simulator has been used to validate the suggested framework. Several experiments have been conducted to find the best configurations suited for enhancing collaboration and resource allocation to achieve sustained QoS. The results support the suggested structure for a decentralized multi-cloud environment and the parameters that have been determined.

In the age of universal computing, human life is becoming smarter owing to the recent developments in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), wearable sensors, and telecommunication innovations, which provide more effective and smarter healthcare facilities. IoMT has the potential to shape the future of clinical research in the healthcare sector. Wearable sensors, patients, healthcare providers, and caregivers can connect through an IoMT network using software, information, and communication technology. Ambient assisted living (AAL) allows the incorporation of emerging innovations into the routine life events of patients. Machine learning (ML) teaches machines to learn from human experiences and to use computer algorithms to “learn” information directly instead of relying on a model. As the sample size accessible for learning increases, the performance of the algorithms improves. This paper proposes a novel IoMT-enabled smart healthcare framework for AAL to monitor the physical actions of patients using a convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm for fast analysis, improved decision-making, and enhanced treatment support. The simulation results showed that the prediction accuracy of the proposed framework is higher than those of previously published approaches.

The objective of installing a residential photovoltaic system is to cut the cost of the monthly electric bill. However, many homeowners, especially those with low-income, finds it difficult to invest in such systems because require substantial upfront investment. This paper presents a project called PSD-LAG(“Sharing and Distribution of Power-Local Area Grid”) which attempts to solve the issue of installation cost relying on the concept of power sharing and distribution. Thus two or more neighboring households can share the cost of installation, and accordingly share the generated electric power. A Demand-Driven algorithm is implemented and is embedded in a micro-processor based control unit, called “Intelligent Power Distribution and Control Unit (IPDC Unit)”, over sees the operation of the PSD-LAG system. It reads the status of generated power, power requirements for each home, power quota for each home, and accordingly controls a set of hardware devices to distribute the power in a most efficient manner based on usage and quota. At the core of the PSD-LAG is an Intelligent Power Distribution and Control Unit (IPDC Unit) that provides instantaneous monitoring, protection and control. It is an embedded Operating System that reads the status of generated power, power requirements for each home, power quota for each home, and accordingly controls a set of hardware devices to distribute the power in a most efficient manner based on usage and quota.
