Purpose: The difficulty of diagnosing several lung disorders, including atelectasis, cardiomegaly, lung cancer, and COVID-19, is a challenging problem and needs to be addressed. These conditions exhibit some symptoms and demand advanced medical imaging process, thorough clinical assessments, and innovative procedures for accurate diagnosis. The shortage of qualified radiologists further makes the problem more complex to deal with. COVID-19 in particular has resulted in a remarkable number of fatalities around the world. Children below the age of 5 and individuals over 65 are more likely to be affected by lung disorders. It is very hard to diagnose and manage COVID-19 absolutely, but it can be identified earlier by employing computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) technologies to make timely diagnosis. Currently, radiologists adopt technologies, which are driven by artificial intelligence. By using them, medical imaging data, such as chest X-rays and CT scans, can be investigated to identify patterns to diagnose the severity of the virus. This expedites the diagnostic process and enhances accuracy, facilitating more timely and precise medical interventions. The efficiency of artificial intelligence in processing large datasets can directly help healthcare professionals in making diagnosis quicker and more accurate. The objective of the work in this paper is to design and implement deep learning model classifiers, which will effectively categorize the patterns found in the X-rays and CT scans. Methods: Three techniques for categorization are exploited to propose an entirely new hybrid convolutional neural network (CNN) model in this context. MRI and CT image categorization in the first classification method employ Fully Connected (FC) layers. The weights are calculated and tuned for training the algorithm over multiple periods to deliver the maximum precision for classification. The most accurate MRI and CT image characteristics are studied, and deep learning model classifiers

Cloud storage auditing research is dedicated to solving the data integrity problem of outsourced storage on the cloud. In recent years, researchers have proposed various cloud storage auditing schemes using different techniques. While these studies are elegant in theory, they assume an ideal cloud storage model;that is, they assume that the cloud provides the storage and compute interfaces as required by the proposed schemes. However, this does not hold for mainstream cloud storage systems because these systems only provide read and write interfaces but not the compute interface. To bridge this gap, this work proposes a serverless computing-based cloud storage auditing system for existing mainstream cloud object storage. The proposed system leverages existing cloud storage auditing schemes as a basic building block and makes two adaptations. One is that we use the read interface of cloud object storage to support block data requests in a traditional cloud storage auditing scheme. Another is that we employ the serverless computing paradigm to support block data computation as traditionally required. Leveraging the characteristics of serverless computing, the proposed system realizes economical, pay-as-you-go cloud storage auditing. The proposed system also supports mainstream cloud storage upper layer applications(e.g., file preview) by not modifying the data formats when embedding authentication tags for later auditing. We prototyped and open-sourced the proposed system to a mainstream cloud service, i.e., Tencent Cloud. Experimental results show that the proposed system is efficient and promising for practical use. For 40 GB of data, auditing takes approximately 98 s using serverless computation. The economic cost is 120.48 CNY per year, of which serverless computing only accounts for 46%. In contrast, no existing studies reported cloud storage auditing results for real-world cloud services.

Stress has a remarkable impact on various cognitive functions, demanding timely and effective detection using strategies deployed across interdisciplinary domains. It influences decision-making, attention, learning, and problem-solving abilities. As a result, stress detection and modeling have become important areas of study in both psychology and computerscience. This study links the fields of psychology and machine learning to deal with the urgent requirement of accurate stress detection methodologies and highlights sleep patterns as a key indicator for stress detection, discussing a novel approach to understand and determine stress levels. Psychologists use affective states to measure stress, which refers to a sense of feeling an underlying emotional state. However, most stress classification work has been limited to user-dependent models, which new users cannot use without additional training. This can be a significant time burden for new users trying to predict their affective states. Therefore, it is critical to address basic mental health issues in children and adults to prevent them from developing more complex problems on account of undergoing stress. The medical field processes vast amounts of medical data;the machine learning algorithms sift through patterns that might escape the human eye. The machine learning algorithms act as detectives, able to spot correlations and bring out a sense of complex information. The machine learning algorithms reveal fine correlations and patterns, aiding in more precise and prompt diagnoses particularly to focus fundamental mental health issues in individuals of all ages. This research work deploys an enhanced Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), exhibiting an extensive feature analysis for processing medical datasets, resulting in improved effectiveness in predicting stress levels. This helps us to diagnose issues more accurately and swiftly which improves the patient outcomes. The proposed and enhanced MLP model undergoes stri
