Tools and Techniques for Whole-Genome Alignments
Abstract: The prediction of evolutionary relationships between two or more genomes at the nucleotide level is known as whole-genome alignment (WGA). It possesses characteristics of both gene orthology prediction and collinear sequence alignment. WGAs are useful for genome-wide analyses like phylogenetic inference, genome annotation, and function prediction. So many solutions have been developed despite the fact that this problem is difficult. This article provides an overview of the approaches used to …

Multiple Sequence Alignment Algorithms for a Protein Structure for a Biological Data using Dynamic Programming Method
Abstract: Many algorithms use dynamic programming to align two sequences. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed to perform multiple Sequence alignment. This algorithm is developed by taking the inspiration of dynamic programming and is implemented on protein structures of any length. It uses particle swarm optimization (PSO) techniques to get the best alignment. The proposed approach tries to improve the sequence alignment obtained by Needleman Wunsch algorithm.

Yoga and Neural Health: Enhancing Brain Function Through Postural Alignment
Abstract: Correct posture significantly influences neural function and brain health by ensuring optimal alignment of the spine and nervous system. Poor posture disrupts neural communication, impairs blood flow, and affects cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) circulation, leading to adverse effects on cognitive performance, emotional regulation, and overall brain health. This study examines the physiological connection between posture and neural health, emphasizing its impact on cognitive function, mood, and neuroplasticity. Using a mixed-methods approach, …

Effect of High-Shear Mixing on Alignment of Carbon Nanofiber/Epoxy Nanocomposites
Abstract: AbstractOne of the major technological issues limiting widespread use of epoxy polymer nanocomposites containing carbon nanofibers is processability, where the dispersion or alignment of the nanofibers is crucial to performance of the composite. Poor dispersion of the nanofibers can lead to deterioration in properties, while aligning them affords the opportunity to maximize properties in a given direction. The authors have recently investigated the effect of high-shear mixing as a potential …

Reward-Aligned Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback for Emotion-Sensitive Large Language Model Therapists: Balancing Empathetic Engagement, Boundary Safety, and Clinical Accountability
Abstract: The deployment of large language models (LLMs) in mental health therapy contexts introduces a critical alignment challenge: these systems must simultaneously cultivate genuine empathic rapport, observe clinically grounded safety boundaries, and remain auditable under institutional accountability frameworks. Existing reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) pipelines optimize for a scalar reward signal that is demonstrably insufficient for the multi-objective, temporally extended nature of therapeutic conversation. This paper presents RA-RLHF-T (Reward-Aligned RLHF …

Bridging the Gap Between Product Development and Entrepreneurship in Engineering Curriculum: A Framework-Based Approach Aligned with NEP 2020
Abstract: Despite advancements in technical education, Indian engineering graduates frequently enter the workforce lacking critical competencies in product development (PD) and entrepreneurship. This imbalance has drawn scrutiny from industry and policymakers alike, with national directives such as the National Education Policy (NEP 2020) emphasizing a shift toward “experiential, holistic, integrated and inquiry-driven” learning models. Similarly, the All-India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) has embedded innovation labs, internship mandates and entrepreneurship courses …

Blockchain for Secure Health Records in India: Aligning with Ayushman Bharat
Abstract: India’s healthcare ecosystem continues to face significant hurdles, particularly in the efficient management, protection, and accessibility of patient health records. For decades, medical data in the country has remained scattered across institutions, recorded in incompatible formats, and stored in systems that rarely communicate with each other. These gaps not only slow down clinical decision-making but also increase exposure to data breaches and other cybersecurity risks. In this context, blockchain technology …
