Abstract: This work uses a dataset of 299 patient instances with 13 parameters from the UCI machine learning library to predict the optimal model and classifier for analyzing heart failure circumstances. Explanatory Data Analysis (EDA), which uses pre-processing, spread and location metrics, and visualization approaches to make sense of the data, is where the study starts. Using the original, unbalanced, and significant feature datasets, machine learning methods including Naïve Bayes, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, K-nearest neighbor,........

Abstract: Railway track faults pose a significant risk to train operations, leading to accidents and potential loss of life and resources. Manual inspection methods are time-consuming and prone to errors. To address this issue, a novel approach using a camera mounted on trains for real-time track fault detection is proposed. This system employs image processing techniques to analyze the camera data and identify any faults present on the tracks. The proposed approach leverages an innovative system where a webcam is strategically mounted on a toy train moving........

Abstract: Image classification is termed as supervised learning problem: in which we define a set of target classes (objects to identify in images) and then train a model to recognize them using labelled example photos. Data Science deals with collecting large amounts of data and then analyse user behaviour. The information is used to draw conclusions, make plans, implement policies, and make better, data-driven decisions. There are........

Abstract: Accurate and efficient barcode recognition is essential across various logistics, retail, and healthcare industries, as it enables automated tracking, inventory management, and quick transactions. Introducing deep learning techniques has considerably enhanced the accuracy and speed of barcode recognition systems. This paper explores using advanced object detection and decoding algorithms to improve barcode recognition. By employing the YOLO-v5 algorithm, which achieved a mean average precision of 97% at an intersection over the union threshold of 0.5 and 98% over thresholds from 0.5 to 0.95, the system accurately identifies barcode regions within large datasets. The Pyzbar library complements YOLO........

Abstract: This paper proposes a system for detecting counterfeit products using blockchain technology. The system would involve two types of users: the official company responsible for registering products and the customers who want to ensure their purchases are genuine. The official company would register its products on the application, assigning them unique QR codes. When customers buy a product, they can simply scan the QR code using the application. The application would then verify the product's authenticity through the blockchain. The blockchain would store a record of all product registrations and transactions. This would make it very difficult for counterfeiters to create fake products or tamper with the data on the blockchain.

Abstract: Introduction: Neonatal bacterial infection (NBI) is a public health problem. The high mortality associated with this disease and the difficulties of diagnosis increase the need to study biomarkers to enable rapid management of infected neonates. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of procalcitonin, interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein in the diagnosis of neonatal bacterial infection at Brazzaville University Hospital. Patients, Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional analytical study conducted in the Neonatology, Bacteriology and Biochemistry departments of the Brazzaville University Hospital Centre between April and September 2023. The study population consisted of 118 neonates........

Abstract: The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the cybersecurity space, presenting a compelling blend of significant benefits and noteworthy challenges. AI applications, such as anomaly detection, intrusion prevention systems, malware analysis, and automated security patching, have demonstrably enhanced security measures. These advancements lead to increased efficiency, improved threat detection accuracy, and faster response times. Case studies substantiate AI's capability to fortify defenses, as demonstrably evidenced in the reviewed examples. However, alongside these advantages, AI introduces new vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities include potential biases within algorithms, susceptibility to adversarial attacks designed to manipulate AI systems, and the possibility of malicious actors leveraging AI to launch sophisticated cyberattacks. Ethical concerns, particularly around autonomous AI weapons, highlight the need for stringent regulations and transparent development.........
