Rehabilitation is essential for individuals with multiple sclerosis (MS) to improve their quality of life and mitigate the progression of the disease. Cognitive deficits, which commonly affect MS patients, significantly impact daily functioning and well-being. this paper focuses on the development of a digital version of the Tangram puzzle using virtual reality (VR) to promote logical reasoning, attention, and social interactions to enhance engagement in cognitive rehabilitation for MS patients. the developed simulation integrates social presence in the form of a non-playable character (NPC) intending to improve player performance and motivation to ultimately promote engagement and adherence to treatment. A user study involving different game modes withthe NPC in either a supporting or interfering role, was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and usability of the Tangram VR exergame. After collecting and analyzing questionnaire scores and performance data, our results suggest that the application was well-received by users, and the introduction of an NPC had an impact in terms of execution times and sense of frustration, depending on its behaviour. Nonetheless, only a limited set of significant differences between modes was found, suggesting that further study is necessary to validate the results fully.

Recently, all have witnessed a rapid growth of COVID-19 coronavirus worldwide. the calculation of COVID-19 time-series prediction is done using many techniques like compartment models, machine learning models (ML), and deep learning models. therefore, in this paper, the authors have proposed an ensemble-based neural network model. Neural networks (NN), along with non-linear autoregressive (NAR) functions, fitting neural networks (FITNET), or fuzzy systems, are widely used in time-series forecasting. the responses of NAR, FITNET predictor modules are aggregated using fuzzy logic, which improves the final prediction by intelligently integrating outputs of different modules. the whole model was put to the test in terms of forecasting the coronavirus time series in India, at 13 States. In the validation data set, results of ensemble NN models with fuzzy response integration demonstrate extremely better-predicted values. Overall, the results reveal that a modular neural network with fuzzy (MNNF) beats all other approaches in performance metrics, like Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). Prediction errors of ensemble NN i.e., MNNF are much smaller than those of classic monolithic neural networks, showing advantages of the method proposed. the model provides the prediction for the upcoming 8 days.

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a common illness that affects the heart. the conventional machine learning and deep learning algorithms failed to identify CHF in the early stages. So, this work implemented the ChronicNet by combining the properties of both deep learning and machine learning. this study is all about creating a network for finding out CHF from sound recordings of the heart. these are called phonocardiogram data, or PCG. the first step, which is noise removal, signal boosting, and dividing parts, makes sure that heartbeat sounds are of good quality. We use Mel and pitchbased coefficients (MFCC) to analyze the frequency changes in a heartbeat signal. this helps pick out features that show what makes CHF heart disease more special. the convolutional neural network (CNN) feature extraction, using deep learning, helps the MFCC automatically find out special features on its own. the Random Forest classifier (RFC) is used to build a model that can predict CHF faster. In groups with problems to classify, the RFC uses a set of decision trees. this gives benefits such as holding up, fitting to big sizes, and being highly accurate. the proposed system uses CNN features to find CHF from PCG data and correctly identify it using RFC. the simulation results show that the proposed ChronicNet outperformed traditional approaches with 98.84% accuracy.

this article presents the design and performance analysis of a highly efficient ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna for short-range wireless applications. It operates in the frequency range from 3.92 GHz to 23.94 GHz and resonates at 6.73 GHz, 14.75 GHz, and 21.7 GHz. the designed antenna features an innovative and compact structure of $12 \times 20 \times 1 \mathrm{~mm}^{3}$, modeled on a Rogers RT5880 (lossy) substrate material that yields minimal loss and high radiation efficiency (beyond $80 \%$) across the entire operating spectrum. the maximum radiation efficiency of $94 \%$ is attained at 5.2 GHz. the antenna exhibits consistent radiation characteristics withthe highest gain and directivity values of 3.7 dBi and 4.6 dBi respectively. the design is particularly compatible with ultra-wideband (UWB), Ku band, and some of the K band making it suitable for modern short-range wireless communication systems. It offers a significant improvement in bandwidth and efficiency.

Withthe growth of global trade and the intensification of market competition, the importance of logistics supply chain has become increasingly prominent. However, the traditional logistics supply chain is facing many problems in terms of operating efficiency, operating cost and service quality. therefore, this paper proposes a logistics supply chain network design method based on the optimal strategy, and compares the designed logistics network withthe traditional logistics network to find out its advantages. And on this basis, this paper proposes an improvement plan to improve system efficiency, reduce system cost, and improve system service quality. the research purpose of this thesis is to discuss how to use the optimal algorithm to design and optimize the logistics supply chain network. Optimizing the logistics supply chain can greatly improve the operating efficiency of the enterprise, and at the same time enable the enterprise to better adapt to the needs of customers. this is of great practical significance to enhance the competitiveness of Chinese enterprises and promote the sustainable development of our country's economy and society.

this paper proposes a novel extendable damped AC (DAC) generator based on voltage multipliers, which could be employed for partial discharge (PD) testing of power cables. the traditional DAC generator is extremely difficult to extend to a higher voltage level due to the traditional HVDC source, while the circuit topology proposed in this paper simply needs to increase the number of the stage of the VM so as to increase the output voltage level. All the diodes in the traditional VM are replaced with HV switches consisting of series-connected IGBTs with anti-parallel diodes. this paper formulates the detailed implementation of the proposed DAC generator circuit applied to a 10 kV cable. the high-frequency inverter power supply is used as the power source to increase the charging speed during the charging process. Each stage of voltage multipliers is composed of two circuit boards to enhance its extensibility. the practicality of this novel generator has been proved through experiments on a 1400-m cable. Finally, in order to prove its expansibility, two more stages are added to the designed two-stage voltage double circuit to increase the output voltage from 30kV to 60kV.

Flexible Interconnection Devices (FIDs) have various functions, such as power flow control, fault isolation, and power quality improvement, showing great potential for applications in distribution networks. Appropriate system parameters are crucial to ensure the normal operation and good performance of FID. However, the parameter design of FID includes multiple optimization objectives, multiple constraints and various operating modes, and traditional manual design methods face challenges under such complexity. this paper presents an efficient automated design framework for parameter design of FID, based on model simulation and genetic algorithm. the proposed framework reduces the burden of manual mathematical derivation and improves accuracy through purely simulation-based model solving, and multiple measures are taken to enhance the calculation speed. By employing genetic algorithm to deal with multiple optimization objectives and constraints, it caters to dual operating modes of FID and optimizes both main circuit parameters and control parameters to obtain a loss-volume Pareto frontier. the automated design results are validated through simulations, demonstrating significant advantages over traditional manual design methods.

Wind power has strong instability and stochasticity, which bring great challenges to the grid dispatch operation system. In order to make up for the shortcomings of existing studies that neglect the uncertain out-of-set risks and fail to fully consider the demand flexibility, there is an urgent need to establish a new grid intelligent scheduling system. therefore, this paper firstly analyses the characteristics of wind energy, describes the impact of wind energy on the new energy grid, and summarises and introduces the planning method of the grid accessed by wind power. then, it fully utilises the advantages of artificial intelligence algorithms and classical mathematical algorithms and proposes an optimisation model for new energy grid dispatch containing wind power with an improved particle swarm algorithm. It effectively reduces the risk of distribution grid scheduling and can provide guidance for realising more efficient and stable new energy grid scheduling containing wind power.
