This study explores the use of Genetic Algorithms (GA) to solve the NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem known as the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP). The suggested GA, called GA-P, performs better than conventional techniques because it uses a new randomized crossover threshold. According to experimental assessments, GA-P outperforms a normal Genetic Algorithm with fixed crossover (GA-N, 628.6) and approaches the best Branch and Bound solutions (B&B, 560.6) with an average cost of 617.4 for 16-node graphs. With average execution times of 0.1347 seconds for 16 nodes, GA-P also demonstrates constant computational efficiency, outperforming B&B's exponentially growing temporal complexity (169.37 seconds for 16 nodes). In order to balance solution quality and computational cost, hyperparameter tweaking revealed the ideal values of population percentage (pp = 1.1), crossover proportion (cp = 0.8), mutation threshold (mt = 0.3), and exploration probability (ep = 0.2). The results show that GA-P is a scalable and efficient substitute for TSP, with room for improvement via parallelization and exploratory techniques.

This research concentrates on the diagnosis of common mango leaf diseases in Bangladesh using image processing via deep learning. Mango production could be raised by at least 28% globally if the crop could be safeguarded from a variety of diseases. However, without the assistance of an expert, it is challenging for the farmer to detect the disease at the appropriate time. Few studies have been conducted to identify the mango leaf disease present in Bangladesh. So far, no study has been done to identify the seven distinct mango leaf diseases reported in Bangladesh. We proposed a lightweight convolutional neural network (LCNN) in this paper to accurately classify seven distinct mango leaf diseases as well as normal mango leaf. To assess the proposed LCNN model, performance is compared to several pre-trained models such as VGG16, Resnet50, Resnet101, and Xception, and it is found that LCNN achieves the highest testing accuracy (98%).

Secure computing necessitates hardware root of trust (RoT) integrated in systems-on-Chips (SoCs) for cryptographic keys generation, authentication and identification. In this paper, we observe that bitflips in SRAM cells that appear while accessing multiple cells from the same bitline, are not stochastic, as previously considered, but systematic. Based on this observation, a novel strong in-memory Physical Unclonable Function (PUF) computation is proposed for harvesting static entropy from SRAM arrays. The proposed design is compatible with existing in-SRAM computing architectures. To verify our PUF operation, we implement a 6T SRAM array model that performs in-memory computing using a 32 nm CMOS Technology, and, through SPICE simulation, we evaluate the proposed PUF performance. The proposed PUF operation achieves uniqueness and uniformity of 49.99%, and 49.74%, respectively, and reliability higher than 97.4% when the temperature is varied from 0°C to 100°C, and higher than 95.2% when the nominal voltage supply is varied by 10%. Furthermore, we explore the scaling of the number of Challenge Response Pairs (CRPs) of the proposed PUF, and we compare it against the state-of-the-art. Our PUF offers orders of magnitude higher number of CRPs, therefore it is suitable for integrated mechanisms that assure secure computing in SoCs.

Handicrafts hold historical significance in representing the essence of our nation's native culture. However, these handcrafted goods still need to be explored globally, and the manufacturers frequently need help connecting directly with larger markets and potential customers. The scope of this project is bound to Kondapalli Toys, also known as Kondapalli Bommalu, renowned wooden handicrafts originating from Andhra Pradesh, India. The current resources for resolving this issue are not easily available on the market, and there is a lack of a user-friendly application. A dedicated Android application is needed to strengthen the handicraft business. This application enables artisans and potential customers to communicate effortlessly, guaranteeing secure transactions, offering valuable data insights, and providing resources for skill and capacity development. The user interface for this application was developed using the Flutter framework, which prioritizes data security and is scalable and region-adaptive. Through this application, manufacturers can conveniently reach markets while customers have the opportunity to explore and connect with their businesses, allowing them to display their craft items to a global audience.

Early diagnosis and treatment planning are greatly aided by the early identification of brain tumors. Because of its high resolution, low radiation, and low risk of patient discomfort, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is frequently used to diagnose brain tumors. Brain tumor identification is only one area where recent developments in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have shown exceptional effectiveness. This article summarizes recent progress in detecting brain tumors by utilizing MRI images and bespoke CNN layers with transfer learning. The review kicks off with a discussion of the difficulties of detecting brain cancers, such as the tumors' complexity and heterogeneity and the scarcity of available annotated data. The article proceeds to go into the foundations of CNNs and their applicability to MRI image processing. To improve detection accuracy, we incorporate custom CNN layers that are tailored to capture salient tumor-specific information. The concept of transfer learning, in which CNN models trained on large-scale datasets are repurposed for brain tumor detection, is also discussed at length in the review. Using transfer learning, we can take advantage of what we've learned about general image identification to better train models to spot brain tumors. Fine-tuning, feature extraction, and other transfer learning methods are addressed at length. Recent research using custom CNN layers and transfer learning approaches to detect brain cancers in MRI images is thoroughly analyzed in this study. Among the benefits and drawbacks discussed are the methods' adaptability to small datasets, enhanced detection accuracy, and decreased training time. Also, the significance of using metrics for measuring performance and benchmark datasets for comparing methods fairly is discussed. The analysis concludes with suggestions for future study, such as the combination of functional and diffusion tensor imaging with conventional MRI scans to better detect brain tumors. Further
