The era of digitization has accelerated communication and information sharing immensely. With ever-growing digital advancements in technology and applications cybersecurity poses to be a pressing issue. The amount of growth in data exchange is exponential thus making automated processes a vital tool to deliver security. Image editing technologies manipulate image data and have enabled all types of users to tamper images resulting in widespread fake images. Distorted information carries heavy consequences and thus a reliable image forgery detection system is essential. This paper proposes a machine learning-based approach for image splicing detection using the global and local characteristics of the image. TSBTC N-ary, with the value of N = 12,14 and 16, is applied along with LBP for feature extraction and various Machine learning classifiers are implemented and compared for image splicing detection. The performance of the proposed method is tested and validated on 3 benchmark datasets: CASIA V1 Dataset, Columbia Dataset, and Columbia Uncompressed Dataset. Results are evaluated based on various performance metrics.

Spoken Language Identification (SLID) aims at assigning language labels to speech in an audio file. This paper proposes an approach based on Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) for the automatic identification of four Indian languages, Bengali, Gujarati, Tamil and Telugu. The classifier is trained on audio data of 5 hours duration, from each of the four languages. The CNN operates on MFCC spectrogram images generated from short splits of two to four second duration from the raw audio input with varying audio quality and noise print. The paper also analyzes the SLID system performance as a function of different train and test audio sample durations. The proposed CNN model achieves 88.82% accuracy, which can be considered as best when compared with machine learning models.

Maintenance of immutable vaccination records and provision of accessing the records in order to prove immunity has been the need of the hour. The recent spread of Covid19 and related uncertainty over vaccinations and immunity have made the search for a secure trustable system for reporting vaccination data more essential. Multiple digital, as well as paper-based solutions have been tested but none has been reported successful enough. In this paper, a technique has been proposed to solve the problem by introducing blockchain-based solution to maintain records of vaccination and proof of immunity for individuals. The purpose has been to present a safe and efficient solution to the problem and hence the model proposed is based on concepts of smart contracts and built over Ethereum blockchain. The paper goes on to give a detailed study of the technique based on discussions of its various aspects like design, development and feasibility.

Conducting attendance manually is indeed a tedious task, it consumes a lot of the lecture hours which leads to less productivity and waste of time. To get over such dissipation of time, there is a dire need of an automated attendance system which is reliable, efficient, and which saves time. In recent times, machine learning is enhancing and making human life smart and hence following or using the same old traditional approaches in daily chores and tasks is like wasting the time, energy, and efforts for no reason. This paper concentrates on the implementation of an automated attendance system which uses the face recognition algorithms to record the attendance of the class and manage the class database. The system seeks for its application in every classroom to record the attendance of the students smartly and take over the traditional attendance approaches.

The usage of digital images is growing because of the benefits possessed by digital images in many ways in day to day life. But not all the images captured have a filmic appearance that pleases the human eye. Dissatisfaction is mainly because of noise addition, bad illumination where the captured image is either extra dark or bright, which leads to the need of enhancement in the quality of images. The motivation behind enhancement of image is to grasp the hidden information which is unavailable during image acquisition due to improper light conditions. One way to do so is enhancing the contrast of poorly illuminated images. In this paper, a new technique is presented which fuses HE enhanced image with proposed algorithm using wavelet transform. The results are tested on 240 images of 12 different categories ExDark dataset. Performance measures used are Entropy, NIQE and BRISQUE.

Recommender systems in the e-learning domain assist learners in finding relevant learning materials based on their preferences and goals. One of the main components of such a recommender system is a similarity measurement unit, used to determine the set of learners having the same behavior. Several similarity functions have been proposed in the e-learning domain, with different performances in terms of accuracy and quality of recommendations. Most of these similarity methods do not perform satisfactorily in the presence of cold-start users. In this paper, we present a comparative study of 4 generic similarity measures (Pearson Correlation Similarity, Cosine Vector Similarity, Euclidean Distance Similarity, Jaccard Similarity Correlation) that are widely used in e-learning recommender systems. The evaluation metrics Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) are used to evaluate the performance of the recommender system with the 4 similarity measures. The results indicate better recommendation performance when using Cosine Vector Similarity in cold-start condition.

This paper presents how blockchain can be leveraged in the domain of trade finance, to provide an adept model, which simplifies the end-to-end process. The paper elaborates upon the integration of the components of trade finance with blockchain. We discuss the traditional trade finance model and how the integrated blockchain model helps mitigate its pain points. Using this integrated model, a trade transaction that would normally take close to a week can be successfully executed in, approximately, a quarter of a day. The process flow of the events of a transaction powered by blockchain are elucidated upon. This paper highlights how distributed ledgers, smart contracts, events, and system integration will power trade finance. The key features which are focused on include - authentication, decentralization, immutability, and consensus mechanisms. Furthermore, we explore the benefits and functionalities of adopting blockchain, which includes - efficiency, transparency, collaboration, and auditability and the way they can be achieved without compromising security, confidentiality, and interoperability. The objective of the paper is to illustrate how blockchain technology can reshape the landscape of Trade Finance and improve financial mechanisms.

The stretchers and other similar furniture is not limited to hospitals only. However, it is also available in several other facilities and healthcare facilities, such as assisted living quarters, nursing homes, outpatient clinics, and home health care services. Separate experiments were performed to determine the patients’ physical features and ergonomic consideration through the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) which gained comprehensive approach. But design specifications leads to some deficiencies responsible for poor blood circulation, back pain and other related musculoskeletal disorders among the patient. The proposed mechanism is obtained by a design process that considers design objectives specified by the hospital’s medical staff. A manufacturing kinematic mechanism with the help of an electronic sensor was performed to find a connection between the deck’s various positions and the minimum force needed to drive the height adjustment mechanism.

The COVID-19 pandemic is rampant in India and this has changed the way the students and teachers interact with each other during a course. An added complexity is the introduction of the Industry Academia participation in terms of Adjunct Faculties. Teaching formal methods to undergraduate students has been difficult and these are well captured in the academic community. The necessity of good requirements writing which can be validated using formal methods is a need of the hour for the industry. Requirements error contribute to 70% of the errors in safety critical projects. A course on Formal Methods is offered at the National Institute of Technology Karnataka, Surathkal as an undergraduate elective. This has 54 students registered and the course is offered online by an adjunct faculty from the industry. The experiences of capturing and writing good requirements using the EARS (Easy Approach to Requirements Syntax) is highlighted in this paper. A survey of before and after the class and an exercise on EARS notations are brought out. The lessons learnt and the efficacy of the teaching is brought out as a three perspective: student, academia and industry.
