After designing a simulation and running it locally on a small network instance, the implementation can be scaled-up via parallel and distributed computing (e.g., a cluster) to cope with massive networks. However, implementation changes can create errors (e.g., parallelism errors), which are difficult to identify since the aggregate behavior of an incorrect implementation of a stochastic network simulation can fall within the distributions expected from correct implementations. In this paper, we propose the first approach that applies machine learning to traces of network simulations to detect errors. Our technique transforms simulation traces into images by reordering the network's adjacency matrix, and then training supervised machine learning models. Our evaluation on three simulation models shows that we can easily detect previously encountered types of errors and even confidently detect new errors. This work opens up numerous opportunities by examining other simulation models, representations (i.e., matrix reordering algorithms), or machine learning techniques.

Science and health care systems are working hand in hand to cater and support each other in the current era. The liver is one of the important body parts that need to work appropriately for a human body. But sometimes the most hazardous reasons for liver problems are infections or diseases like Hepatitis because they remain for an extended time and direct to dangerous difficulties (liver swelling, liver cancer, etc.). Liver hepatitis contains a diversity of different types of viruses: hepatitis A, B, C, and D. This study presents the design and implementation of liver hepatitis ontology. Protege-Owl and WEB-V-OWL is used for implementing and its visualization. The proposed ontology is portable and can be edited for further addition of concepts in the future. Web ontology language is used to implement this proposed ontology. By developing the Hepatitis ontology, both Intelligent health care systems and physicians can share, reason, and exploit this knowledge in different ways.

The growing complexity of hardware verification highlights limitations in existing frameworks, particularly regarding flexibility and reusability. Current methodologies often require multiple specialized environments for functional verification, waveform analysis, and simulation, leading to toolchain fragmentation and inefficient code reuse. This paper presents Verilua, a unified framework leveraging LuaJIT and the Verilog Procedural Interface (VPI), which integrates three core functional-ities: Lua-based functional verification, a scripting engine for RTL simulation, and waveform analysis. By enabling complete code reuse through a unified Lua codebase, the framework achieves a 12x speedup in RTL simulation compared to cocotb and a 70x improvement in waveform analysis over state-of-the-art solutions. Through consolidating verification tasks into a single platform, Verilua enhances efficiency while reducing tool fragmentation and learning overhead, addressing critical challenges in modern hardware design.
Vision Transformers use self-attention techniques to learn long-range spatial relations to focus on the relevant parts of an image. They have achieved state-of-the-art results in many computer vision tasks. Recently, ...

Microorganisms may cause illness when they enter the body, multiply, and spread to other parts. The rapid spread of COVID-19 to neighboring countries is examined in this research. Anticipating a positive COVID-19 occurrence helps in determining risks and creating countermeasures. As a result, developing robust mathematical models with small error margins for predictions is crucial. Based on these findings, a combined method of evaluating confirmed cases of COVID-19 with universal immunization is recommended. First, the best hyperparameter values of the RBF kernel-based LSSVM (least square support vector machine) were determined using the most recent Evolutionary Mating Algorithm (EMA). After that, LSSVM will complete the task of prediction. This hybrid method has been utilized for time series forecasting in Malaysia since the country's immunization program against COVID-19 got underway. We evaluate our results next to those of well-known methodologies in nature-inspired metaheuristics.

Federated Learning (FL) is proposed as a privacy-preserving distributed learning methodology that can better protect the privacy and reduce communication costs. To stimulate sufficient User Equipments (UEs) to participate in FL, proper incentives need to be designed for FL. Existing incentive mechanisms do not jointly consider UE selection and local learning accuracy optimization to reduce the training expenditure. This paper designs a reverse auction-based incentive mechanism for FL to minimize the training expenditure of Base Station (BS). To this end, we first propose a Greedy Winner Determination (GWD) algorithm to select UEs with the minimum bidding prices. Then, we incorporate the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)-based local learning accuracy optimization into UE selection to further reduce the training expenditure of BS. In addition, we design a Vickrey Clarke Groves (VCG)-based payment rule to determine the payment to each participating UE. The simulation experiments show that our proposed PSO with Winner Determination (PSOWD) algorithm is superior to other existing methods in different scenarios.

Legal professionals and law students often grapple with the arduous task of locating prior Supreme Court rulings for argument preparation and academic study, leading to a laborious and resource-intensive process. This study introduces an innovative approach to streamline the retrieval of legal information from Sri Lankan Supreme Court verdicts. The method centers on developing a Custom Named Entity Recognition (NER) model, boasting a remarkable accuracy exceeding 90%. This model efficiently extracts crucial legal entities from Supreme Court rulings, readily available on the Ministry of Justice's Supreme Court website. The high accuracy ensures precise entity extraction, followed by systematic organization within a dedicated database. Subsequently, a knowledge graph is formed by linking recorded legal entities, reducing information retrieval time to a mere 179 milliseconds, significantly outperforming existing methods. Moreover, a BART summarization model is crafted to generate concise, accurate, and insightful summaries of Supreme Court decisions, boasting an impressive ROGUE1 score of 85%. This approach revolutionizes legal information retrieval, delivering a user-friendly platform that enhances the identification of cases and fosters a deeper understanding, ultimately elevating the quality of legal research and practice.

For DC microgrids (MGs) with load variations and fixed operating points, the use of both linear and nonlinear droop controllers and their extensions is recommended. However, in future architectures with diverse loads ranging from light to heavy, including constant power loads, and fluctuating system parameters, this approach becomes impractical. Linear droop control, with a single droop coefficient, faces challenges in ensuring equitable current sharing due to cable resistance-induced voltage drops. Nonlinear droop control, with a high droop coefficient at heavy loads, may lead to suboptimal current sharing during light load conditions. To address these issues, an optimized piecewise linear droop control is proposed as an intermediary solution, demonstrating superior voltage regulation and current sharing in simulations, particularly under varying loads. Worst-case scenarios highlight the controller's dynamic adjustment of the droop coefficient for each load segment. Stability assessments of parallel buck converters have been conducted by varying critical parameters.
