Privacy-Centric AI and IoT Solutions for Smart Rural Farm Monitoring and Control.

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) in agriculture has significantly transformed rural farming. However, the adoption of these technologies has also introduced privacy and security concerns, particularly unauthorized breaches and cyber-attacks on data collected from IoT devices and sensitive information. The present study addresses these concerns by developing a comprehensive framework that provides practical, privacy-centric AI and IoT solutions for monitoring smart rural farms.

Multiview Large Margin Distribution Machine.

Margin distribution has been proven to play a crucial role in improving generalization ability. In recent studies, many methods are designed using large margin distribution machine (LDM), which combines margin distribution with support vector machine (SVM), such that a better performance can be achieved. However, these methods are usually proposed based on single-view data and ignore the connection between different views.

A Time-Driven Cloudlet Placement Strategy for Workflow Applications in Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks.

With the rapid development of mobile technology, mobile applications have increasing requirements for computational resources, and mobile devices can no longer meet these requirements. Mobile edge computing (MEC) has emerged in this context and has brought innovation into the working mode of traditional cloud computing. By provisioning edge server placement, the computing power of the cloud center is distributed to the edge of the network.

A New Statistical Features Based Approach for Bearing Fault Diagnosis Using Vibration Signals.

In condition based maintenance, different signal processing techniques are used to sense the faults through the vibration and acoustic emission signals, received from the machinery. These signal processing approaches mostly utilise time, frequency, and time-frequency domain analysis. The features obtained are later integrated with the different machine learning techniques to classify the faults into different categories.

Based on these observations, biologists can conclude experimental results or present new hypotheses for several biological applications, i.e.

A Novel Lightweight Deep Learning-Based Histopathological Image Classification Model for IoMT.

The unavailability of appropriate mechanisms for timely detection of diseases and successive treatment causes the death of a large number of people around the globe. The timely diagnosis of grave diseases like different forms of cancer and other life-threatening diseases can save a valuable life or at least extend the life span of an afflicted individual. The advancement of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) enabled healthcare technologies can provide effective medical facilities to the population and contribute greatly towards the recuperation of patients.

Internet of things-based technological acceptance learning management framework for the physical education system.

Background: Internet of Things (IoT) is a hopeful advancement that is an accurate international link for smart devices for total initiatives. Physical Education (PE) builds students' abilities and trust to engage in various physical activities, both within and outside their classrooms. The challenging characteristics in the learning management system include lack of setting a clear goal, lack of system integration, and failure to find an implementation team is considered as an essential factor.

Efficient Continuous Skyline Query Processing in Wireless Sensor Networks.

Owing to the rapid advent of wireless technology and proliferation of smart sensors, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been widely used to monitor and query the physical world in many applications based on the Internet of Things (IoT), such as environmental monitoring and event surveillance. A WSN can be treated as a distributed database to respond to user queries. Skyline query, as one of the popular queries for multi-criteria decision making, has received considerable attention due to its numerous applications.

Internet of Things with Maximal Overlap Discrete Wavelet Transform for Remote Health Monitoring of Abnormal ECG Signals.

Syntheses of 3,4-disubstituted pyrroles and furans via Lewis acid-promoted semipinacol rearrangement/alkyne-ketone metathesis reaction of (C)-2-N- or O-((3-arylpropargyl)methyl)-tethered 3,5,5-trimethyl-2,3-epoxycyclohexan-1-ones.

The synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted pyrroles via TMSOTf-assisted cyclization reaction of 3,5,5-trimethyl-2,3-epoxycyclohexan-1-ones incorporating a (3-arylpropargyltosylamino)methyl tether at the C-2 position is described. The reaction starts with an acid-promoted semipinacol rearrangement to give a ring contraction cyclopentanone moiety bearing an arylpropargylaminoacetyl side chain. A subsequent alkyne-ketone metathesis affords the pyrrole derivatives in good yields.
