Segmentation process is very popular in Speech recognition, word count, speaker indexing and speaker diarization process. This paper describes the speaker segmentation system which detects the speaker change point in an audio recording of multi speakers with the help of feature extraction and proposed distance metric algorithms. In this new approach, pre-processing of audio stream includes noise reduction, speech compression by using discrete wavelet transform (Daubechies wavelet 'db40' at level 2) and framing.

The Water Quality Index (WQI) is widely used as a classification indicator and essential parameter for water resources management projects. WQI combines several physical and chemical parameters into a single metric to measure the status of Water Quality. This study explores the application of five soft computing techniques, including Gene Expression Programming, Gaussian Process, Reduced Error Pruning Tree (REPt), Artificial Neural Network with FireFly (ANN-FFA), and combinations of Reduced Error Pruning Tree with bagging.

Article Synopsis
  • Current diagnostic methods for lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) in India are lengthy and expensive, relying on biochemical tests and DNA sequencing, which often yield low results due to overlapping symptoms.
  • Researchers have created a novel, cost-effective sequencing assay using single-molecule molecular inversion probes (smMIPs) that accurately identifies genetic variants linked to 29 common LSDs.
  • The new assay showed a high diagnostic yield of 83.4% in patients with previous biochemical diagnoses and effectively detected rare diseases like Niemann-Pick type C, outperforming traditional methods and allowing for flexible use with different sample types.

Significant advancements in machine learning algorithms have the potential to aid in the early detection and prevention of cancer, a devastating disease. However, traditional research methods face obstacles, and the amount of cancer-related information is rapidly expanding. The authors have developed a helpful support system using three distinct deep-learning models, ResNet-50, EfficientNet-B3, and ResNet-101, along with transfer learning, to predict lung cancer, thereby contributing to health and reducing the mortality rate associated with this condition.
