Particle swarm optimization-based type-2 fuzzy modeling for ECG signal prediction

A hybrid prediction framework based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and the Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Inference System (IT2FIS) is proposed in this paper. The major contribution is a systematic methodology for calculating the ideal parameter vector to tune the membership functio...

Halophytes-associated endophytic fungi for sustainable development

Abstract Halophytes, naturally adapted to survive and grow under high-salinity conditions, harbour complex internal microbiomes composed of endophytic microorganisms that persist within plant tissues without causing disease. Among these, endophytic fungi play a crucial role in en...

Cultural Hybridization in Modern Indian Writing English Literature

Abstract Cultural hybridization is a central feature of modern Indian English literature, reflecting the dynamic interaction between indigenous traditions and global influences. Emerging from the historical context of colonialism and evolving through postcolonial and globalized r...

The Various Applications of Graphene Oxide (GO) Nanoparticles: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract Graphene oxide (GO) is a two-dimensional carbon-based nanomaterial derived primarily from the oxidation and exfoliation of graphite. The incorporation of oxygen-containing functional groups such as hydroxyl, epoxy, carbonyl, and carboxyl groups into the graphene lattice...

Shifting Crop Patterns in Pune District, Maharashtra: A Temporal Analysis of Agricultural Land Use Change (2015–16 to 2024–25)

Abstract Agriculture in Pune district, Maharashtra, has undergone a profound structural transformation over the decade from 2015–16 to 2024–25. Driven by expanding irrigation infrastructure, access to urban markets, and changing price incentives, the district has progressively sh...

Magneto‐Photoactivated Gold Plasmonic Nano‐Islands and Quantum Dot Assemblies for ppt‐Level NO 2 Detection

ABSTRACT The intrinsic instability and limited chemical reactivity of metal nanoparticles have long restricted their direct integration in chemiresistive gas sensing. Here, we present a highly selective, tunable, ultra‐stable, and ultra‐sensitive NO 2 sensor derived from gold nan...

Understanding IoT wearable adoption: a TAM-TTF perspective

Purpose The purpose of this research is to identify the key determinants influencing the adoption of IoT-enabled wearable devices in India. The study aims to offer suggestions for the integration of IoT in the Indian market, highlighting user perceptions, technological attributes...

Assessing the skill of a biogeochemical model tailored to a global coupled forecasting system: a case study for the Bay of Bengal carbon cycle

To achieve real-time prediction of surface ocean carbonaceous variables in the Indian Ocean, we integrate an extended-range coupled forecast system with a global ocean biogeochemistry model incorporating an explicit carbon cycle. The physical ocean state is provided by the Indian...

A drift-aware explainable artificial intelligence framework for dynamic construction risk governance using multi-domain fuzzy inference and Bayesian updating

Purpose Construction projects operate in highly dynamic environments where project risks evolve continuously as new information becomes available. Conventional risk assessment approaches are predominantly static and provide limited capability to adapt to temporal changes or gener...

Plant part substitution as a sustainable conservation strategy for some medicinal plants based on phytochemical equivalence

Abstract Medicinal flora represents an essential source of bioactive substances for both conventional and contemporary medicine; nevertheless, excessive extraction of non-renewable parts such as roots, bark, and heartwood has led to significant reductions in wild populations, esp...

Synthesis, Characterization, Biological Evaluation and In Silico Studies of Some New Thiazole Derivatives

Background/Objectives: The thiazole ring is one of the core structures frequently favored in the design of new active compounds. Methods: A series of thiazole derivatives bearing a benzodioxole scaffold (1-9) were synthesized and evaluated for their antioxidant, anticholinesteras...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi support plant nutrition soil health and ecosystem resilience

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal fungi are widespread symbionts that support plant nutrition, health and resilience while shaping soil microbial communities. This review synthesizes current evidence, with emphasis on arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, on their roles in nutrient acquisition...

Bi-LSTM & LeNet model for insurance policy summarization and classification

This research proposes a novel end-to-end framework for insurance policy summarization and classification by introducing three methodological enhancements: Enhanced TF-IDF (E-TF-IDF) for discriminative feature extraction, a Modified Botox Optimization Algorithm (M-BOA) for optimi...

Improved parallel convolutional neural network model for anomaly detection in fluid transportation system

The presence of water leakages in distribution systems leads to issues such as water loss, and damage to infrastructure. It is very challenging to precisely identify leaks in distribution systems because leaks are unwanted happenings in water distribution networks (WDNs). Impleme...

Women’s lived experiences of the built environment and maternal psychosocial well-being in urban slums and slum rehabilitation colonies: a qualitative study in Bhopal, India

BACKGROUND: Nearly half of India's urban population lives in informal settlements, facing substandard living conditions due to overcrowding, poor infrastructure, and limited access to basic amenities. These conditions critically affect the psychosocial well-being of mothers, yet...

A multimodal cross-modal explainable retrieval-augmented generation framework for hallucination-grounded visual question answering

Recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have achieved remarkable performance on visual question answering (VQA) and multimodal reasoning tasks. But one overlooked failure case stubbornly persists: when answers require simultaneous synthesis of evidence from natural images...
