In order to meet the requirements of integrated management of electronic lock with high security and high convenience in application scenarios such as data center network cabinet, a lock control system based on biometric technology is designed, which integrates electronic lock, network controller, collector and lock control platform. Platform management is used for system integration. By constructing dual MCU system of electronic lock ESP32-C3FH4 and network controller CH32V307VCT6, and integrating system data into biometric electronic lock, electronic lock adopts modular design to meet different functional requirements. The lock-control system realizes face and fingerprint template transmission, authentication information and event management through wireless and wired network communication. The existing Modbus TCP communication protocol is upgraded, and MODBUS protocol is extended to UDP communication, so as to realize the transmission of large throughput data. Through the test of the lock-control network management platform, the network controller can realize the centralized management of 8 lock information, and realize the authentication and permission change of operation and maintenance personnel through the collection and uploading of biometric information such as face and fingerprint. The test face module prosthesis resistance rate of 100%, face in vivo detection reception rate of 99.71%, from trigger to single face, fingerprint recognition, unlocking time is less than 2.5 seconds. The system expands the application of biometric electronic lock in industrial field.

To identify mask wearing quickly and automatically in public places is particularly important for epidemic prevention and control. In this paper, we present a real-time mask wearing detection algorithm based on improved YOLOv5s, which speeds up the reasoning speed by 5~10% and achieves a detection accuracy of more than 96%. The proposed algorithm can be easily deployed in Raspberry PI. We also design a Web-based mask wearing detection system consisting of two parts: the cloud subsystem and the edge subsystem. The cloud part mainly realizes data storage, model training, equipment monitoring, big data visualization and other functions. The edge part uses Raspberry Pie as the core deployment equipment to complete data collection, model reasoning, information early warning and other functions. Our system features the advantages of high real-time, low cost and low network traffic. It can be widely deployed in the supermarket, parks, intelligent light poles and other open scenes, resulting in greater practical application value.

Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a debilitating ocular complication of diabetes that results from prolonged exposure of the retina to elevated levels of blood glucose. This exposure can lead to progressive microvascular changes and neuronal injury, resulting in a spectrum of visual impairments ranging from mild vision changes to severe vision loss and blindness. DR typically manifests as structural changes in the blood vessels of the retina, including capillary non-perfusion, microaneurysms, retinal hemorrhages, and new vessel formation. DR is challenging to diagnose and treat due to the gradual onset of symptoms and the lack of early warning signs. Therefore, regular eye exams are critical for early detection and management of DR. A human ophthalmologist would take a significant amount of time, based on their ability and experience, to go through the fundus image and diagnose DR. Despite advancements in DR management, it remains a significant public health issue, and further research is essential to improve the understanding of DR in order to overcome the existing complications. This paper proposes a solution for improving retinal fundus images by creating more precise computerized image analysis medical diagnosis with fewer computational requirements as the images are grayscaled so that irrespective of the imaging apparatus the features of the images are enhanced without loss of information. The results of the proposed framework are assessed using entropy, contrast improvement index and structural similarity index measure.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease, which is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that was identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China [1], [2]. It is a pandemic that causes respiratory disorder and is transmitted through sneezing droplets of infected individuals. These droplets can fall on the objects around the effected and enter a healthy individual through contact. Major symptoms of this disease include lethargy, dry cough, followed by fever [3]. The number of cases is surging dramatically, raping developed and undeveloped countries together [3]. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) COVID-19 weekly epidemiological Update for 29(th) of December there are 79 million infected cases and 1.7 million deaths *** pandemic not only affects our health but also affects our livelihood. In the absence of specific treatment or a vaccine, non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI) form the backbone of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. These NPI includes physical distancing, regular hand washing, and wearing a face mask. This study aims to help with the monitoring of these NPIs specifically wearing face masks using deep learning. This study implements face mask detection and recognition system that automatically detects and recognizes if a person is wearing a Medically approved face mask, Non-Medically approved face mask, or not wearing a mask at all. This study has determined that MobileNetV1 model has shown the best performance regarding classification (79%) and processing speed up to 3.25 fps.

Increasing energy demand is an important issue due to limited resources and environmental concerns. Buildings are responsible for a large portion of total energy consumption, with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems being the largest consumer. With the advent of internet of things (IoT) technology, a large amount of data can be collected from buildings, providing insights into the operation of HVAC systems. This data can be employed with data-driven methods to improve efficiency, analyze performance, and develop models that represent system behavior. In this study, a data-driven artificial neural network model for predicting indoor temperatures in commercial buildings is presented. The data preprocessing procedure is described and the main features used to build the model are identified. The results show that the data-driven model can predict indoor temperatures with an intraday root mean squared error (RMSE) of 0.85 °C. The developed model has the potential to be integrated into a predictive control system as a possible solution to reduce energy consumption.

Accurate segmentation of brain tumors is a critical task in medical imaging, aiding diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognosis. This paper introduces a novel framework for brain tumor segmentation that leverages a Dual-Branch vision Transformer (DB-ViT) integrated with a Region-Attention Fusion Network (RAFN) to address the limitations of conventional convolutional neural networks. The DB-ViT processes multimodal MRI sequences, including T1, T1c, T2, and FLAIR, to extract global contextual features while preserving modality-specific information. Simultaneously, the RAFN enhances segmentation precision by refining local features and focusing on critical regions of interest through an attention mechanism. The proposed method effectively combines global and local feature representations, ensuring accurate delineation of tumor boundaries. Extensive experiments were conducted on the BraTS dataset, demonstrating the superiority of our approach over existing methods such as U-Net, Attention U-Net, and TransUNet. Quantitative evaluation metrics, including Dice Score and Intersection over Union (IoU), indicate significant improvements in segmentation accuracy. The framework also achieves computational efficiency and robustness across diverse tumor morphologies. Visual results further validate its ability to enhance boundary delineation, particularly in heterogeneous tumor regions. The proposed methodology represents a significant advancement in automated medical image analysis, offering potential for real-time clinical applications. Future work aims to explore broader clinical validation and real-time deployment of this framework.

computer Organisation and Architecture is a core subject in Computing Science (CS) in Higher Education. Some topics in this subject are thought to be dry by students through traditional teaching, such as computer functions and interrupts, as students are unable to visualize these multiple-step procedures of how the CPU performs. This research aims to utilize the virtual reality (VR) serious game to help students learn better these topics and absorb abstract concepts or comprehend scenarios that would be difficult in a typical classroom setting. It also enables an engaging and motivating platform, achieving successful learning for CS students. The effectiveness of the designed VR serious game is evaluated with two groups of participants: control group and experiment group. The results reveal that the serious game is able to provide students with positive learning efficiency as well as an engaging and self-motivated experience. The research provides an effective way of teaching and learning modality of the computer Organisation and Architecture subject for CS students.
