This study proposes a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) framework for automated lung cancer diagnosis using CT images. The dataset was preprocessed through normalization and augmentation to enhance model robustness and generalization. The CNN model was optimized to classify images as cancerous or non-cancerous, with performance evaluated using accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and AUC. Experimental results demonstrate high classification accuracy, indicating the model’s potential as a Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) tool. Grad-CAM visualization further highlights discriminative regions, improving interpretability. This automated system offers a reliable, efficient approach to support radiologists, reduce diagnostic workload, and enhance clinical decision-making.

Bone fractures are a prevalent form of musculoskeletal injury that require timely and accurate diagnosis for effective treatment. Radiographic imaging, particularly X-ray analysis, remains the primary diagnostic tool. However, manual interpretation by radiologists is subject to human error, fatigue, and variability in judgment. This research presents a deep learning-based approach for the automated detection of bone fractures in X-ray images using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The proposed system is trained on a publicly available dataset comprising labeled images of fractured and non-fractured bones. Preprocessing techniques such as resizing, normalization, and data augmentation were applied to improve model robustness and generalization. The CNN architecture was designed and optimized to learn distinguishing features from input images without manual feature engineering. The model achieved a high classification accuracy of over 93% on test data, demonstrating strong potential for assisting clinical diagnosis. Evaluation metrics including precision, recall, and F1-score indicate that the model can reliably differentiate between fractured and healthy bone structures. The system is scalable, cost-effective, and suitable for integration into computer-aided diagnostic tools, particularly in resource-limited settings. This study contributes toward the development of intelligent diagnostic systems that can support healthcare professionals by reducing diagnostic delays and enhancing patient outcomes.

Handwriting is not just a way of writing; it reflects how a person thinks, feels, and behaves. It acts as a brain imprint that shows each person’s unique personality. This research uses Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), a type of deep learning, to detect behaviour patterns automatically from handwriting images. This research focuses on analyzing handwriting characteristics to scientifically infer personality traits from writing patterns and structures. The handwriting images were processed through grayscale conversion, noise removal, thresholding, and normalization. For model development, we divided the data into training, validation, and testing sets and used them to train the CNN model. Along with overall classification, selected handwriting samples were studied to analyze behaviour related features such as slant, margin, line spacing, word spacing, size consistency, baseline consistency and pressure. These features help understand personality traits like emotional stability, clarity of thought, confidence, and how a person interacts with others. This work can find practical use in fields such as recruitment, teaching, forensic examinations, counseling, and mental health services, where having a clear understanding of a person’s character and behaviour is highly valuable.

Prediction systems are the most important part of making decisions based on data. They affect areas like finance, healthcare, industrial automation, and climate science. Even with improvements in deep learning and machine learning, current predictive models still have three big problems: they make more mistakes with each prediction, they are sensitive to changes in the data distributions they are based on, and they can't always capture how different features interact with each other. This paper presents RAFE-Net (Residual Adaptive Feedback Ensemble Network), an innovative algorithm specifically formulated to tackle these constraints. RAFE-Net uses the best parts of ensemble learning, a residual feedback module (RFM) that learns from mistakes all the time, and a distribution shift detector (DSD) that changes predictions when data distributions change a lot. The framework not only makes things more accurate, but it also makes them more robust and easier to understand. This makes it good for high-stakes situations like fraud detection and medical diagnosis. Experimental assessments utilising benchmark datasets—such as the M4 time series dataset, the IEEE-CIS fraud detection dataset, and various datasets from the UCI Machine Learning Repository—illustrate that RAFE-Net attains a predictive accuracy improvement of up to 7.2% and a reduction in false positives by 12.5% relative to leading-edge baselines. These findings underscore the promise of feedback-driven ensemble frameworks as the forthcoming generation of predictive modelling systems.

Air pollution remains a pressing environmental and public health challenge in India, with fne particulate matter (PM2.5) posing severe respiratory and cardiovascular risks. This study conducts a comparative statistical inference analysis of daily PM2.5 concentrations for Delhi and Mumbai, based on 2024 data sourced from the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). Two estimation approaches are applied: the classical parametric t-based confidence interval method, which assumes normality, and the non-parametric bootstrap approach, which relies on re-sampling without distributional assumptions. The analysis reveals that while Delhi consistently exhibits substantially higher PM2.5 levels than Mumbai, the estimated means and confidence intervals from both methods are closely aligned, indicating that the parametric method’s assumptions are reasonably met in this dataset. The findings underscore the utility of bootstrap methods in validating classical inference, particularly in environmental data analysis, and provide robust evidence for policy-oriented air quality interventions.
