Accurate diagnosis of glaucoma is crucial due to its high risk of blindness, but the long examination time often undermines the reliability of results by examinee's subjective factors. We propose a method to reduce examination time by generating static perimetry results with Conventional Fundus Images (CFIs) utilizing the CFI2GM technique, which leverages multimodal data. Based on data from 3,306 glaucoma patients at Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, we conducted ophthalmic image translation utilizing the Pix2Pix model. Our method, combining cGAN, L1, and SSIM loss, achieved MSE 57.9886 and PSNR 30.6057 dB. Furthermore, we received positive feedback from ophthalmologist regarding the high practical applicability of the images generated by our method. This indicates that CFI2GM can enhance the reliability of glaucoma examination results as well as reduce testing time.

The metaverse, a virtual world where various users can jointly/independently interact with digital objects seamlessly, is expected to be a key application area in beyond fifth generation (B5G)/ six-generation (6G) networks. However, the metaverse design poses several challenges, such as efficient usage of limited resources and the provision of high-quality user experiences. In this paper, we recommend advanced machine learning techniques such as multi-armed bandits (MABs), federated learning (FL), meta-learning, etc., to address these challenges. We illustrate the evaluability of these techniques with two specific use cases: resource allocation for virtual reality (VR) applications and personalized content delivery in the metaverse.

Data aggregation is an important approach in IoT sensor networks since it reduces data transfer while also preserving energy and bandwidth. This research investigates the challenge of time-efficient data aggregation in wireless sensor networks, which is critical in military, civilian, and industrial applications. Effective data aggregation algorithm design and optimization are required for quick and interference-free data collection. Machine learning has received attention for outperforming classical heuristic techniques. The research presents the first Graph Neural Network (GNN) model for data aggregation in IoT sensor networks, which incorporates Graph Attention Networks (GATs) and fully connected layers. The GNN-based model learns network topology and node attributes, creating node embeddings and correcting sensor node transmitting time slots. With a centralized training procedure and adapted execution for network size change, the proposed approach achieves satisfactory performance compared to the heuristic algorithm.

Hearing loss impacts over 5% of the world's population, a percent rising due to aging populations, noise exposure, and chronic health conditions. To address this, we developed a non-invasive hearing device designed for individuals with hearing challenges that limit the use of hearing aids. The proposed device integrates a set of Bluetooth headphones with a smartphone, that process the ambient sound in real time through a software application and delivers to the hear impaired patient via bone conduction, bypassing traditional auditory pathways. Laboratory tests confirmed that the proposed device effectively replicates auditory perception. The developed device offers an accessible and user-friendly alternative to patients who cannot use traditional hearing aids.

The rapid growth of internet technology and social media platforms has led to rapid changes in communication by providing many conveniences to users. Despite the comforts provided, it is challenging to control the quality of information due to the lack of supervision over all the information posted on online media. For instance, there are many problems in society because of the numerous rumours and the quick spread of fake news through online media. Manual checking is almost impossible given the vast number of posts made on online media and how quickly they spread. Therefore, there is a need for automated rumour detection technique to limit the adverse effects of spreading misinformation. Previous studies mainly focused on finding and extracting the significant features of text data and used standard supervised learning techniques or deep learning approaches to identify misinformation. However, extracting features is timeconsuming and not a highly effective process due to the nonavailability of some features, affecting the effectiveness and performance of the detection models. Therefore, this study proposes the BERT-based pre-trained language models to encode text data into vectors and utilise neural network models to classify these vectors to detect misinformation. Furthermore, the performance of different language models (LM) containing different number of trainable parameters were compared, including RoBERTa, BERT, and DistillBERT. The proposed technique is tested on different twitter and fake news datasets to represent short and long text data respectively. The study also proposes a standardised distribution ratio for taining, validation and testing of the model. The result of the proposed technique has been compared with the state-of-the-art techniques on the same datasets. The results show that the proposed technique performs better than the state-of-the-art techniques. Moreover, the choice of LM either with significantly large or small number of parameters do

Cardiac conditions are one of the leading causes of death worldwide. To address this, we designed a model that can detect cardiac conditions from a patient's electrocardiogram (ECG). This will convert the 1D ECG signal into a 2D scalogram using wavelet transforms with Morlet wavelets. With the help of a network based on the AlexNet convolutional neural network, it distinguishes between a normal ECG signal and one indicative of arrhythmia or congestive heart failure. The resulting model performs well, achieving a classification accuracy of 92.20% and providing a robust approach for detecting cardiac conditions.
