Climate is rapidly changing around the world. Over time, there have been significant changes in the weather. Rainfall is now erratic due to climate change. The frequency of extreme weather events like droughts and floods has increased due to climate change, necessitating the need for more precise and timely rainfall forecasts. For strategic reasons including agriculture, water resource management, and architectural design, rain forecasting is crucial. The naturally occurring non-stationary component in the rainfall time series impairs model performance for practical hydrologists and drought risk assessors. We present a rain predicting model based on machine learning to address the forecasting issue. In our work, we predict the possibility of rain the next day on the basis of last 10 years' data. The variables that were calculated during the experiments were humidity, pressure, evaporation, sunshine, rainfall, and so on. Random Forest gave the 90% accuracy with 0.904 Area under Curve, highest out of all the algorithms. The model's performance will significantly aid in the rain forecast.

This paper introduces the AL-MUSACTRA platform, an initiative designed to democratize access to cultural heritage through digital innovation, specifically catering to the diverse needs of individuals with disabilities. Grounded in the universal right to leisure and culture, the platform is a direct response to the mandates of international conventions and the Sustainable Development Goals, with a focus on inclusivity, safety, resilience, and sustainable access to cultural and natural heritage. Despite the progress in accessible audiovisual translation, the challenge of ensuring universal access to cultural heritage persists, particularly for those with visual, hearing, and cognitive disabilities. The AL-MUSACTRA platform leverages the Drupal Content Management System to overcome these barriers, offering features such as audio descriptions, sign language videos, and simplified texts. This paper details the platform's development, highlighting its emphasis on web accessibility standards and its potential to serve as a model for similar initiatives globally.

Modern Internet of Things (IoT) systems are highly complex due to its mobile, ad-hoc and geographically distributed nature. Very often, an edge-cloud infrastructure is established to offer intelligent services in modern IoT systems. However, IoT edge devices are typically resource-constrained and can not perform sophisticated machine learning algorithm on board. Data sharing with a central server is a common approach of crowdsourcing, but also brings privacy and security concerns. The emerging federated learning offers a promising pathway to achieve an accurate model through distributed machine learning while ensuring data privacy. The existing federated learning process is not tailored to the mobile and adhoc nature of IoT systems where devices are of varying data and system qualities and may not be able to participate the entire training process. Therefore, in this paper, a new federated learning framework is proposed to support asynchronous model fusion with clustering-based participant selection. The proposed framework aims to accommodate the ad-hoc nature of IoT devices, and at the same time avoiding low quality or even malicious data from its participants to ensure model convergence and performance.

Hidden Markov Models have proved to be a very significant tool for various time-series related problems, especially where context is important. One such problem is Part-of-speech tagging. The work uses a customized HMM to propose an effective and advanced solution to POS tagging. With a precision rate of 0.9657, recall of 0.9656, and F1-score of 0.9655, this proposed HMM-based model achieves an exceptional level of accuracy, exhibiting its accurate identification of the POS of words in a sentence. The statistical model employed by the HMM-based method predicts the most likely POS tags while taking into account the probabilities of transition between various POS tags. The model's dependability and resilience were demonstrated when it was tested on a different dataset after being trained on a extensive collection of text data. The study's findings demonstrate that the HMM-based strategy outperforms current POS tagging techniques, making it a significant contribution to the field of natural language processing. In addition, this research has significant implications for a number of NLP applications, including sentiment analysis, machine translation, and text categorization, paving the way for additional innovation and exploration in this domain.

Pattern mining is a core objective within data mining, involving the detection of frequent itemsets (collections of values) within databases. This process serves to extract valuable insights from the data, facilitating informed decision-making. In recent times, a range of algorithms has emerged to adapt this task to the realm of uncertain *** has a wide range of applications, such as analyzing medical data to identify correlated symptoms based on their existential probabilities. However, pattern mining algorithms also pose the risk of revealing sensitive information. As far as we know, there is no existing solution that addresses the inadvertent disclosure of sensitive itemsets when pattern mining algorithms are employed on uncertain databases. This paper addresses this problem by proposing three heuristic approaches, which ensure that sensitive expected frequent itemsets are not discovered while minimizing undesirable side effects for other itemsets. The first heuristic approach (called aggregate) deletes some transactions from an uncertain database. The second approach (named disaggregate) removes some selected items from each transaction. And the third approach (called the hybrid approach) combines the two previous approaches, and deletes some selected items from some selected transactions. An experimental evaluation is presented to assess and compare the effectiveness of the three approaches.

For newcomers and tourists, navigating university campuses can be difficult, resulting in aggravation and lost time. We respond by introducing “GikiLenS”, an object identification application driven by deep learning that revolutionizes campus exploration by accurately identifying buildings and landmarks while enhancing user experience. GikiLenS is a comprehensive and user-friendly smartphone application that precisely caters to the demands of newcomers and visitors, unlike previous studies in campus navigation. Our study intends to close this gap and develop a reliable method for identifying campus buildings, optimizing navigation, and enhancing user experience. Through rigorous testing, GikiLenS has proven to have remarkable real-time building detection accuracy, highlighting its potential as an important tool for campus exploration. The app's outcomes and conclusions demonstrate how well it works to give users specific building information, promoting a more knowledgeable and enjoyable campus experience. The importance of our findings lies in the development of a unique, user-centered app that offers a cutting-edge method of campus mobility. Our contribution consists of a game-changing method for building detection that improves campus exploration and user pleasure.

The human brain's intricate functions are under-pinned by a vast network of synapses that enable chemical impulses between neurons. Neuroscientists employ two key approaches, functional and effective connectivity, to understand the brain's complexity, focusing on its operations, cognition, and behavior. While both methods utilize graph theory for network analysis, functional connectivity, which investigates associated brain activity, has seen more substantial research efforts than effective connectivity, which examines information processing's inter-regional impacts. In this research paper, we aim to present an extensive examination of the emerging discipline that combines graph theory with the analysis of brain characteristics, shedding light on how these characteristics arise from the interactions among different groups of neurons. Our primary focus lies in exploring the diverse cognitive and neurological applications that leverage functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) as a tool. Additionally, we offer a comprehensive overview of the methods employed to construct brain networks based on functional and efficient connections. Throughout the discussion, we emphasize the advantages and limitations associated with these approaches.
