A Systematic Review on Factors Contributing to Infertility
Abstract: Infertility is a multifactorial reproductive health condition affecting approximately 10–15% of couples worldwide and continues to represent a major clinical and social challenge. Despite substantial advances in assisted reproductive technologies, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic interventions, many couples still face difficulties in achieving pregnancy. The impact of infertility extends beyond physical health, often leading to emotional distress, social pressure, and financial burdens, especially in societies where parenthood is highly valued. Consequently, …

Comparison of Models of Machine Learning and Hyperparameter Optimization Methods on Various Datasets
Abstract: The most likely phase in achieving powerful and robust machine learning models is probably the hyperparameter tuning step. The traditional exhaustive methods of search (grid search and others) ensure that the search space is covered, but are computationally inexpensive; random search is less expensive and can still miss good regions; and lastly, the modern model-based and population-based methods (Bayesian optimization, tree-structured Parzen estimator (TPE), genetic algorithms) are thought to provide …

Structure Property Correlation of Polymer Dielectrics Using Electrical Response Data
Abstract: Polymer dielectrics are foundational to insulation, capacitors, embedded passives, and flexible electronics, where performance is governed by the frequency-dependent electrical response rather than a single dielectric constant. This study presents a spectroscopy-aware structure–property correlation framework that transforms dielectric response data into physically interpretable spectral fingerprints and learns mappings from polymer descriptors to these fingerprints for prediction and interpretation. Broadband spectra are standardized on a log-frequency grid and parameterized using relaxation-informed …

A Clinical Insight Into Management of Left Sided Hydrocele through Homoeopathy: A Case Report
Abstract: Hydrocele is a common condition in pediatric age groups, characterized by the accumulation of serous fluid within the tunica vaginalis surrounding the testis. While many cases resolve spontaneously within the first one to two years of life, persistent hydrocele beyond this period is generally managed surgically. The present case highlights the role of individualized homoeopathic treatment as a conservative approach in such conditions. A 2-year-old male child presented with left-sided …

Infectious illnesses in areas of violence and among refugees
Abstract: Infectious illnesses are a huge and ongoing hazard in conflict zones and among refugee populations. This is because frail health systems, population relocation, and poor living conditions all come together to make transmission risks higher. Armed conflict undermines vital public health infrastructure, such as vaccination programs, disease surveillance, water and sanitation systems, and access to medical care, resulting in the resurgence and proliferation of avoidable and treatable illnesses. Refugee camps …

A Dynamic Text Compression Model for Big Data Applications Using Hadoop
Abstract: In today’s data-driven era, efficiently handling vast amounts of information has become increasingly important. Data compression plays a vital role in this regard — it is essentially a method of encoding information in such a way that significantly reduces the number of bits required to store or transmit a file. By shrinking data to its most compact form, compression techniques help save storage space, reduce bandwidth consumption, and improve the …

Analyzing Thermal Expansion in Polymer Composites Through Heat Transfer Simulations
Abstract: Although lightweight and strong, polymer composites require careful handling in environments where temperatures shift. Their usefulness in fields like aviation, vehicle manufacturing, and electronic devices comes from customizable heat behavior alongside favorable mechanical traits. Yet variation in size due to heating or cooling remains a concern hard to dismiss. As conditions change, expansion occurs - sometimes enough to disrupt fit, alignment, or function within complex systems. This response to warmth …

A Smart Framework that Combines Data Mining and Optimization for Different Applications
Abstract: Blending predictive data mining with metaheuristic optimization has become essential for tackling tough, real-world problems across all kinds of fields. Most existing methods stick to fixed algorithms, each focused on a tiny slice of the puzzle, barely budging when new variables or unpredictability show up—especially with messy, human-generated data. So, here’s the idea: a Unified Metaheuristic and Predictive Data Mining (UMPDM) framework that finally connects adaptive search methods with powerful …

Deploying Optimal Number of Sensors and Damage Detection in Structural Health Monitoring Using SEM-GA Method
Abstract: Detecting damages is the most important criterion in any engineering creation—be it a machine or a building. Among the engineering creation, civil engineering structures need a continuous monitoring to check their operations, performance and the health status of the structures. Damage detection cannot be done manually every time. Automated systems have to be developed in order to monitor the health of the structure periodically. Hence, structural health monitoring (SHM) aims …
