The rise of mining pools in Blockchain networks has improved reward distribution but introduced critical challenges related to centralization and malicious miner activity, which threaten the integrity of decentralized consensus. Addressing this gap, this paper proposes the Reputation-based Consensus Protocol (RCP), a novel framework designed to enhance trust and security in mining pools by incorporating a transparent and dynamic reputation system. Unlike traditional consensus algorithms like Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS), which do not differentiate between trustworthy and malicious participants, RCP evaluates miners based on a multi-dimensional scoring mechanism, including historical reputation, willingness reputation, and indirect feedback reputation. This targeted approach allows the network to prioritize reputable miners for block creation, thereby mitigating attacks and improving consensus reliability. By integrating RCP with modular Blockchain frameworks such as Hyperledger, this protocol not only strengthens miner accountability but also sets the foundation for more secure and trustworthy decentralized networks. The proposed model has the potential to redefine mining pool operations and significantly contribute to the evolution of secure Blockchain consensus protocols.

The Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) staging system plays a crucial role in clinical planning, offering valuable insights for effectively managing hepatocellular carcinoma. Accurate prediction of BCLC stages can significantly ease the workload on radiologists. However, few datasets are explicitly designed for discerning BCLC stages. Despite the common practice of appending BCLC labels to clinical data within datasets, the inherent imbalance in BCLC distribution is further amplified by the diverse purposes for which datasets are curated. In this study, we aim to develop a BCLC staging system using the advanced Swin Transformer model. Additionally, we explore the integration of two datasets, each originally intended for separate objectives, highlighting the critical challenge of preserving class distribution in practical study designs. This exploration is pivotal for ensuring the applicability of our developed staging system in the designed clinical settings. Our resulting BCLC staging system demonstrates an accuracy of 55.81% (±7.8%), contributing to advancing medical image-based research for predicting BCLC stages.

This paper proposes a fitness movement evaluation system using deep learning. The system uses a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) to extract features from pictures of fitness movements. The features are then used to classify the movements into different categories. The system is evaluated on a dataset of pictures of fitness movements. The results show that the system can accurately classify the movements into different categories. The system is designed to provide feedback to users on their fitness movements. The proposed system is a valuable tool for fitness enthusiasts. The main contribution of this paper is to propose a way to give users a score for their fitness movement. It can help users improve their fitness and track their progress over time. The system is also a valuable tool for fitness professionals. It can help professionals develop new fitness programs and provide feedback to their clients.
