Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness, requiring early detection for effective management. Traditional diagnostic methods have challenges such as precise segmentation of small structures and accurate classification of disease stages remain. This research addresses these challenges by developing an optimized hybrid classification model for automated glaucoma diagnosis. At first, the preprocessing stage employs the histogram equalization technique known as Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) technique. Consequently, an improved U-Net segmentation process implemented with the proposed cross-entropy loss function is utilized. Then, features such as fractal features, cup-to-disc-based features, Inferior-Superior-Nasal-Temporal (ISNT) rule-based features and improved Pyramid Histogram of Orient Gradient (PHOG) based features are extracted. Further, a hybrid classification model, a combination of Improved Convolutional Neural Network (ICNN) and optimized Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) classifiers for diagnosing glaucoma disease. Also, to improve the performance of the diagnosis process, a new Opposition-based Learning-enabled Namib Beetle Optimization (OBL-NBO) approach is proposed to optimize the weights of the RNN classifier. Moreover, the ICNN classifier is employed for classifying the presence of glaucoma and non-glaucoma conditions. The proposed OBL-NBO scheme achieved an accuracy of 0.927 for dataset 1 and 0.945 for dataset 2 at an 80% training data.

This study proposes a novel multi-agent system designed to detect Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, addressing the increasing need for robust cybersecurity measures. The hypothesis posits that a structured multi-agent approach can enhance detection accuracy and response efficiency in DDoS attack scenarios. The methodology involves a five-stage detection model: (1) Preprocessing using a modified double sigmoid normalization technique to eliminate duplicate data; (2) Feature Extraction where raw data and improved correlation-based features, mutual information, and statistical features are identified; (3) Dimensionality Reduction conducted by a reducer agent to streamline the feature set; (4) Classification utilizing Deep Belief Networks (DBN), Bi-LSTM, and Deep Maxout models, with their weights optimally tuned using the hybrid optimization algorithm, WUJSO; and (5) Decision Making by the decision agent to ascertain the presence of attacks, followed by mitigation through modified entropy-based techniques. The results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a detection accuracy of 0.953 at a learning rate of 90%, significantly outperforming other methods, including Bi-GRU (0.857), DEEP-MAXOUT (0.910), Bi-LSTM (0.865), RNN (0.814), NN (0.894), and DBN (0.761). This research underscores the effectiveness of the multi-agent approach in enhancing DDoS attack detection and mitigation.

The rapid advancements in Agriculture 4.0 have led to the development of the continuous monitoring of the soil parameters and recommend crops based on soil fertility to improve crop yield. Accordingly, the soil parameters, such as pH, nitrogen, phosphorous, potassium, and soil moisture are exploited for irrigation control, followed by the crop recommendation of the agricultural field. The smart irrigation control is performed utilizing the Interactive guide optimizer-Deep Convolutional Neural Network (Interactive guide optimizer-DCNN), which supports the decision-making regarding the soil nutrients. Specifically, the Interactive guide optimizer-DCNN classifier is designed to replace the standard ADAM algorithm through the modeled interactive guide optimizer, which exhibits alertness and guiding characters from the nature-inspired dog and cat population. In addition, the data is down-sampled to reduce redundancy and preserve important information to improve computing performance. The designed model attains an accuracy of 93.11 % in predicting the minerals, pH value, and soil moisture thereby, exhibiting a higher recommendation accuracy of 97.12% when the model training is fixed at 90%. Further, the developed model attained the F-score, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy values of 90.30%, 92.12%, 89.56%, and 86.36% with k-fold 10 in predicting the minerals that revealed the efficacy of the model.

The human body will show very complex and diversified posture changes in the process of falling, including body posture, limb position, angle and movement trajectory, etc. The coordinates of the key points of the model are mapped to the three-dimensional space to form a three-dimensional model and obtain the three-dimensional coordinates of the key points; The construction decomposition method is used to calculate the rotation matrix of each key point, and the rotation matrix is solved to obtain the angular displacement data of the key points on different degrees of freedom. The method of curve fitting combined with the weight distribution kernel function based on self-organizing mapping theory is used to obtain the motion trajectory prediction equation of the human body falling in different degrees of freedom at random positions in three-dimensional space, determine the key point trajectory of human random fall behaviour. The experimental results show that the mapped 3D model is consistent with the real human body structure. This method can accurately determine whether the human body falls or squats randomly, and the prediction results of the key points of the human fall are consistent with the actions of the human body after the fall.

Predicting the stock market is one of the significant chores and has a successful prediction of stock rates, and it helps in making correct decisions. The prediction of the stock market is the main challenge due to blaring, chaotic data as well as non-stationary data. In this research, the support vector machine (SVM) is devised for performing an effective stock market prediction. At first, the input time series data is considered and the pre-processing of data is done by employing a standard scalar. Then, the time intrinsic features are extracted and the suitable features are selected in the feature selection stage by eliminating other features using recursive feature elimination. Afterwards, the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) based prediction is done, wherein LSTM is trained to employ Aquila circle-inspired optimization (ACIO) that is newly introduced by merging Aquila optimizer (AO) with circle-inspired optimization algorithm (CIOA). On the other hand, delay-based matrix formation is conducted by considering input time series data. After that, convolutional neural network (CNN)-based prediction is performed, where CNN is tuned by the same ACIO. Finally, stock market prediction is executed utilizing SVM by fusing the predicted outputs attained from LSTM-based prediction and CNN-based prediction. Furthermore, the SVM attains better outcomes of minimum mean absolute percentage error; (MAPE) and normalized root-mean-square error (RMSE) with values about 0.378 and 0.294.

Image denoising is one of the significant approaches for extracting valuable information in the required images without any errors. During the process of image transmission in the wireless medium, a wide variety of noise is presented to affect the image quality. For efficient analysis, an effective denoising approach is needed to enhance the quality of the images. The main scope of this research paper is to correct errors and remove the effects of channel degradation. A corrupted image denoising approach is developed in wireless channels to eliminate the bugs. The required images are gathered from wireless channels at the receiver end. Initially, the collected images are decomposed into several regions using Adaptive Lifting Wavelet Transform (ALWT) and then the "Symmetric Convolution-based Residual Attention Network (SC-RAN)" is employed, where the residual images are obtained by separating the clean image from the noisy images. The parameters present are optimized using Hybrid Energy Golden Tortoise Beetle Optimizer (HEGTBO) to maximize efficiency. The image denoising is performed over the obtained residual images and noisy images to get the final denoised images. The numerical findings of the developed model attain 31.69% regarding PSNR metrics. Thus, the analysis of the developed model shows significant improvement.

One of the most used diagnostic imaging techniques for identifying a variety of lung and bone-related conditions is the chest X-ray. Recent developments in deep learning have demonstrated several successful cases of illness diagnosis from chest X-rays. However, issues of stability and class imbalance still need to be resolved. Hence in this manuscript, multi-class lung disease classification in chest x-ray images using a hybrid manta-ray foraging volcano eruption algorithm boosted multilayer perceptron neural network approach is proposed (MPNN-Hyb-MRF-VEA). Initially, the input chest X-ray images are taken from the Covid-Chest X-ray dataset. Anisotropic diffusion Kuwahara filtering (ADKF) is used to enhance the quality of these images and lower noise. To capture significant discriminative features, the Term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) based feature extraction method is utilized in this case. The Multilayer Perceptron Neural Network (MPNN) serves as the classification model for multi-class lung disorders classification as COVID-19, pneumonia, tuberculosis (TB), and normal. A Hybrid Manta-Ray Foraging and Volcano Eruption Algorithm (Hyb-MRF-VEA) is introduced to further optimize and fine-tune the MPNN's parameters. The Python platform is used to accurately evaluate the proposed methodology. The performance of the proposed method provides 23.21%, 12.09%, and 5.66% higher accuracy compared with existing methods like NFM, SVM, and CNN respectively.

Leaf infection detection and diagnosis at an earlier stage can improve agricultural output and reduce monetary costs. An inaccurate segmentation may degrade the accuracy of disease classification due to some different and complex leaf diseases. Also, the disease's adhesion and dimension can overlap, causing partial under-segmentation. Therefore, a novel robust Deep Encoder-Decoder Cascaded Network (DEDCNet) model is proposed in this manuscript for leaf image segmentation that precisely segments the diseased leaf spots and differentiates similar diseases. This model is comprised of an Infected Spot Recognition Network and an Infected Spot Segmentation Network. Initially, ISRN is designed by integrating cascaded CNN with a Feature Pyramid Pooling layer to identify the infected leaf spot and avoid an impact of background details. After that, the ISSN developed using an encoder-decoder network, which uses a multi-scale dilated convolution kernel to precisely segment the infected leaf spot. Moreover, the resultant leaf segments are provided to the pre-learned CNN models to learn texture features followed by the SVM algorithm to categorize leaf disease classes. The ODEDCNet delivers exceptional performance on both the Betel Leaf Image and PlantVillage datasets. On the Betel Leaf Image dataset, it achieves an accuracy of 94.89%, with high precision (94.35%), recall (94.77%), and F-score (94.56%), while maintaining low under-segmentation (6.2%) and over-segmentation rates (2.8%). It also achieves a remarkable Dice coefficient of 0.9822, all in just 0.10 seconds.

An inaccurate segmentation may degrade the accuracy of disease classification due to some different and complex leaf diseases. Also, the disease's adhesion and dimension can overlap, causing partial under-segmentation. Therefore, a novel robust Deep Encoder-Decoder Cascaded Network (DEDCNet) model is proposed in this manuscript for leaf image segmentation that precisely segments the diseased leaf spots and differentiates similar diseases. This model is comprised of an Infected Spot Recognition Network and an Infected Spot Segmentation Network. Initially, ISRN is designed by integrating cascaded CNN with a Feature Pyramid Pooling layer to identify the infected leaf spot and avoid an impact of background details. After that, the ISSN developed using an encoder-decoder network, which uses a multi-scale dilated convolution kernel to precisely segment the infected leaf spot. Moreover, the resultant leaf segments are provided to the pre-learned CNN models to learn texture features followed by the SVM algorithm to categorize leaf disease classes. The ODEDCNet delivers exceptional performance on both the Betel Leaf Image and PlantVillage datasets.
