Optimized Companding Technique using Firefly Algorithm for PAPR Reduction in OFDM System
Abstract: AbstractThe current trends in wireless industry are based on multi-carrier transmission technique such as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) which provides high data rates and is highly immune to frequency selective fading. However, OFDM is handicapped with a major problem of high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), which gives rise to non-linear distortion, inter-symbol interference and out-of-band radiation. Several PAPR reduction techniques have been devised over the last few decades in …

A Robust Face Recognition Model based on Convolutional Neural Networks
Abstract: From the past several years, face recognition is one of the challenging issues in computer vision, due to three main technical problems in it. 1) Expression problem: in which same person shows more than one expression. 2) Illumination problem: in which face images of the person are strongly corrupted by lightning and 3) poses problem: in which large portion of the face becomes invisible due to occlusion. To this end …

A Generative AI Paradigm for a Global Crisis: Redesigning the Sanitary Pad Polymer Lifecycle for Environmental and Public Health in India
Abstract: The sale of disposable sanitary pads, most of which contain non-biodegradable polymers, especially polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and superabsorbent polyacrylates (SAPs), has led to a souring environmental and population health crisis, especially in India. A linear economic approach of take-make-dispose has resulted in the exponential growth of polymer waste that fully blocks drains, leads to microplastic pollution, and overloads insufficient waste management facilities. Traditional polymers are designed to be permanent …

A novel similarity measure for interval value picture fuzzy Environment and extended TOPSIS
Abstract: Correct decision-making is the most arduous task in our daily life. The decisions are hard to make in the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problems due to ambiguous and unexpected information. In order to cope with such uncertainties in the data, a new decision-making approach has been developed using a newly defined similarity measure under the framework of interval-valued picture fuzzy set (IVPFS), as an extension of picture fuzzy sets (PFS). In …

User Personality: Prediction and Question Answering System
Abstract: Personality refers to the general traits of a person based on his or her psychological and individual characteristics that reflect into a person’s overall nature and behaviour. Among the featured measures of this system are the MBTI (Myers Briggs Personality Type) which divides individual personalities into 16 distinct types across four axes. To predict the personality of an individual to get a hint about the individual, a personality prediction system …

Predicting Dielectric Constants of Polymers Using Molecular Structural Descriptors and Explainable Machine Learning: A Data-Driven Approach
Abstract: Accurate prediction of dielectric constants in polymeric materials is fundamental to the rational design of advanced electronic components, energy storage capacitors, flexible substrates, and high-frequency communication circuits. Conventional approaches to identifying suitable polymer dielectrics rely on extensive experimental synthesis and characterisation, which are both time-consuming and resource-intensive. In this work, an explainable machine learning framework is developed to predict the dielectric constant of polymers directly from molecular structural descriptors derived …

A Novel Approach for Confidence Estimation using Support Vector Machines for More Accurate Value Prediction
Abstract: Data dependencies create hurdles in exploiting instruction-level parallelism (ILP) among instructions. To overcome them, data value predictors are used which guess instructions’ result before it is actually executed. Thus, future instructions which depend on the outcome of that instruction executes sooner. But, since value prediction accuracy is very crucial in determining the amount of parallelism that can be exploited, confidence estimation is used along with it to lessen the value …
