Enhancement of Digital Mammograms Using Intuitionistic Fuzzy Entropy Function
Abstract: A novel intuitionistic fuzzy entropy-based algorithm is developed for increasing the contrast of digital mammograms. The contrast enhancement helps in the early detection of masses and microcalcification in tissues thus paving the way for the auxiliary diagnosis of breast cancer. The current techniques for the enhancement of digital mammograms do not consider the uncertainty in pixel intensities of mammograms. The proposed technique aims at enhancing the mammograms using intuitionistic fuzzy …

Comprehensive Analysis of Counting by Sorting
Abstract: Sorting algorithms play an important role in computer science, as they facilitate the effective organization and retrieval of data. Counting sort is a non-comparative integer sorting algorithm that works well with a limited number of integers known beforehand. The process, advantages, and limitations of this sorting algorithm were investigated in this study. Unlike other comparison-based sorting algorithms, counting sort achieves a time complexity of O(n+k), which depends on the input …

Heat Stress Mitigation in Resource-Constrained Dairy Farming Systems: Practical Strategies for Sustainable Development
Abstract: Heat stress poses a critical threat to dairy production, particularly in resource-constrained systems prevalent across tropical and subtropical regions. Elevated ambient temperatures, compounded by high humidity, directly impair feed intake, milk yield, reproductive efficiency, and overall animal welfare. In low-resource settings, conventional cooling technologies such as automated fans, sprinklers, and climate-controlled housing remain economically inaccessible. Therefore, cost-effective, locally adaptable, and sustainable solutions are essential for maintaining productivity and animal health. …

Artificial Intelligence–Assisted Reduced-Order Modeling and Stability Control in Granular Couette Flow
Abstract: This study develops a reduced-order and stability-aware modeling framework for dense granular Couette flow by integrating continuum mechanics, bifurcation analysis, and data-driven stability estimation. Starting from coupled governing equations for momentum, granular temperature, and microstructural evolution, the system is nondimensionalized and reduced using a Galerkin projection consistent with shear-driven boundary conditions. This yields a low-dimensional nonlinear dynamical system that preserves the essential coupling between velocity, fluctuation energy, and structural relaxation. …
