Regression testing of software systems is an important and critical activity yet expensive and resource-intensive. An approach to enhance its efficiency is Regression Test Selection (RTS), which selectively re-executes a subset of relevant tests that are impacted by code modifications. Previous studies on static and dynamic RTS for Java software have shown that selecting tests at the class level is more effective than using finer granularities like methods or statements. Nevertheless, RTS at the package level, which is a coarser granularity than class level, has not been thoroughly investigated or evaluated for Java projects. To address this gap, we propose PKRTS, a static package-level RTS approach that utilizes the structural dependencies of the software system under test to construct a package-level dependency graph. PKRTS analyzes dependencies in the graph and identifies relevant tests that can reach modified packages, i.e., packages containing altered classes. In contrast to conventional static RTS techniques, PKRTS implicitly considers dynamic dependencies, such as Java reflection and virtual method calls, among classes belonging to the same package by treating all those classes as a single cohesive node in the dependency graph. We evaluated PKRTS on 885 revisions of 9 open-source Java projects, with its performance compared to Ekstazi, a state-of-the-art dynamic class-level approach, and STARTS, a state-of-the-art static class-level approach. We used Ekstazi as the baseline to measure the safety and precision violations of PKRTS and STARTS. The results indicated that PKRTS outperformed static class-level RTS in terms of safety violation, which measures the extent to which relevant test cases are missed. PKRTS showed an average safety violation of 2.29% compared to 5.94% safety violation of STARTS. Despite this, PKRTS demonstrated lower precision violation and lower reduction in test suite size than class-level RTS, as it selects higher number of irrelevant te

Desertification greatly affects land deterioration, farming efficiency, economic growth, and health, especially in Gulf nations. Climate change has worsened desertification, making developmental issues in the area even more difficult. This research presents an enhanced framework utilizing the Internet of Things (IoT) for ongoing monitoring, data gathering, and analysis to evaluate desertification patterns. The framework utilizes Bayesian Belief Networks (BBN) to categorize IoT data, while a low-latency processing method on edge computing platforms enables effective detection of desertification trends. The classified data is subsequently analyzed using an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) optimized with a Genetic Algorithm (GA) for forecasting decisions. Using cloud computing infrastructure, the ANN-GA model examines intricate data connections to forecast desertification risk elements. Moreover, the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model is employed to predict desertification over varied time intervals. Experimental simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the suggested framework, attaining enhanced performance in essential metrics: Temporal Delay (103.68 s), Classification Efficacy—Sensitivity (96.44 %), Precision (95.56 %), Specificity (96.97 %), and F-Measure (96.69 %)—Predictive Efficiency—Accuracy (97.76 %) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) (1.95 %)—along with Reliability (93.73 %) and Stability (75 %). The results of classification effectiveness and prediction performance emphasize the framework's ability to detect high-risk zones and predict the severity of desertification. This innovative method improves the comprehension of desertification processes and encourages sustainable land management practices, reducing the socio-economic impacts of desertification and bolstering at-risk ecosystems. The results of the study hold considerable importance for enhancing regional efforts in combating desertification, ensuring food security, and formulatin

Recognizing and analyzing medical images is crucial for disease early detection and treatment planning with appropriate treatment options based on the patient's individual needs and disease history. Deep learning technologies are widely used in the field of healthcare because they can analyze images rapidly and precisely. However, because each object on the image has the potential to hold illness information in medical images, it is critical to analyze the images with minimal information loss. In this context, Capsule Network (CapsNet) architecture is an important approach that aims to reduce information loss by storing the location and properties of objects in images as capsules. However, because CapsNet maintains information on each object in the image, the existence of several objects in complicated images can impair CapsNet's performance. This work proposes a new model called HMedCaps to improve the performance of CapsNet. In the proposed model, it is aimed to develop a deeper and hybrid structure by using Residual Block and FractalNet module together in the feature extraction layer. While it is aimed to obtain rich feature maps by increasing the number of features extracted by deepening the network, it is aimed to prevent the vanishing gradient problem that may occur in the network with increasing depth with these modules with skip connections. Furthermore, a new squash function is proposed to make distinctive capsules more prominent by customizing capsule activation. The CIFAR10 dataset of complex images, RFMiD dataset of retinal images, and Blood Cell Count Dataset dataset of blood cell images were used to evaluate the study. When the proposed model was compared with the basic CapsNet and studies in the literature, it was observed that the performance in complex images was improved and more accurate classification results were obtained in the field of medical image analysis. The proposed hybrid HMedCaps architecture has the potential to make more accurate dia
