The heavy traffic in growing cities hurts the environment, commuters, and economy. Predicting such difficulties early helps increase road network capacity and efficiency and reduce congestion. Many academicians and transportation engineers ignore traffic congestion prediction despite its importance. Insufficient computationally efficient traffic forecast systems and high-quality city-wide traffic data contribute to this. Provide useful information to reduce traffic and construct shorter, more energy-efficient routes. Data storage increases traditional traffic forecasting training, storage costs, and delay. Smarter algorithms can handle today’s city expectations because sensors can now communicate with their environment. A vibrant economy requires decent roads. Improving transportation requires uninterrupted highway traffic. To overcome these issues, smart city roadway traffic flow must be monitored in real time using enhanced internet of things (IoT) capabilities. Training data may contain sensitive information, raising privacy problems. This work addresses these issues by training the prediction model near data sources using federated learning (FL). The suggested strategy was tested using Mumbai, Chennai, and Bangalore traffic data. We compared the proposed method to centralized strategies to assess its efficacy. Our experiments confirm the model’s traffic jam prediction accuracy. Our approach outperforms auto-encoder and convolutional neural network (CNN) in computer efficiency and prediction.

A revolute-revolute-prismatic (RRP) spherical robot has been designed, simulated, built, and tested. The robot is intended to perform olive fruit harvesting tasks. The design simulation is done using hologram tools. The design factors considered include reach, dexterity, accuracy, and productivity. Based on the results of the holographic simulation, a prototype was built and tested on real olive fruits. The end effector is equipped with a rake tool so that the robot can harvest multiple fruits in each stroke. The robot is controlled by Raspberry Pi while a stereovision camera enables 3-D vision. Once the camera detects the fruits, an inverse kinematics algorithm is initiated to find the location of the fruits. The fruit coordinates are commanded to the manipulator to perform the harvesting. The field tests showed that the manipulator is successful in performing the harvesting operations. To increase the harvesting efficiency, it is recommended to build a larger prototype.

A rectangular microstrip patch antenna for 2.45 GHz is designed, tested, and analyzed in this study. It uses two substrate materials (design I and II) with different permittivity levels. RT5880 (design-I) and FR-4 (design-II) substrates have a thickness of 1.57 mm and 1.6 mm, respectively. Design-I and design-II substrates have relative permittivity of 2.2 and 4.3, respectively. Performance and efficiency are considered due to the substrate material's relative permittivity and thickness; return loss (S11), voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), gain, directivity, surface current, and efficiency. Design II and design I have 3.25 dBi and 8.089 dBi gains, respectively, and 5.92 dBi and 8.64 dBi directivity, respectively. Design I had the best antenna efficiency, 93.64%, compared to design II, 54.96%. In contrast to the design I and design II, which had return losses (S11) of -53.29 dB and -51.38 dB, each of the suggested antennas had a return loss (S11) of more than -50 dB. The VSWR for design I is 1.0043, while the Design II material is 1.0054. This study aims to reduce return loss (S11) and close the VSWR to 1.

The presence of eyeglasses in facial images poses challenges for image processing, particularly in facial recognition. This paper introduces the remove glasses diffusion model (RGDM), a conditioned denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM) designed for precise glasses removal. RGDM employs conditional modeling to focus on the glasses region while seamlessly restoring facial features. An eyes position accuracy mechanism, leveraging facial landmarks, ensures accurate eye restoration post-removal. Comprehensive evaluations on the CelebA dataset demonstrate RGDM’s superior performance, achieving the lowest Fréchet inception distance (FID) of 27.09 and learned perceptual image patch similarity (LPIPS) of 0.299, outperforming state-of-the-art methods such as 3D synthetic, cycleconsistent generative adversarial network (CycleGAN), and eyeglasses removal generative adversarial network (ERGAN). These results highlight the model’s effectiveness in producing natural and high-fidelity facial reconstructions. This work advances glasses removal technology and underscores the significance of conditional models in image processing. The proposed approach has practical implications for facial recognition and image enhancement, paving the way for more accurate and robust real-world applications.

Nguyen Van Dung , Nguyen Doan Quoc Anh
The blue/red-emission phosphor Ba3GdNa(PO4)3F:Eu2+ (BGN(PO)F-Eu) is used in this work for diodes emit white illumination (wLED). The phosphor is prepared using the solid-phase reaction. The suitable concentrations of Eu2+ ion dopant is about 0.7% and 0.9%. The BGN(PO)F-Eu phosphor can provide wLED light with the spectral wavelength in the region of blue (480 nm) and orange-red colors (595-620 nm). With the resulted emissions the phosphor can be appropriate for plant growing because they compatible with absorption spectra of plants’ carotenoids and chlorophylls for stimulating the photosynthesis. The phosphor influences on the wLED lighting properties depending on the doping dosages. It is possible to enhance the luminous intensity of the wLED with higher BGN(PO)F-Eu phosphor amount. Meanwhile, the color properties does not get significant improvements. Thus, the BGN(PO)F-Eu phosphor could be used with other luminescent materials to stimulate the hue rendering performance.

This research is conducting analysis of digital land images using digital image processing techniques. The main purpose of the research is to classify soil fertility based on two-dimensional RGB colored digital soil images. The research is done by extracting features and shapes from the soil image. The research uses methods of segmentation, extraction, and identification against digital soil images. This research is carried out in three stages. The first phase of this research is image pre-processing which begins with the conversion of RGB color image to Grayscale then color conversion to binary which subsequently performs noise reduction with the method Three-layer median filter. The second stage is a process that is divided into the first two stages, namely the process of segmentation by grouping RGB color images into L*a*b which is continued by clustering using the K-means clustering method. The second is the extraction of characteristics of the soil image which is characteristic of shape and texture. The final stage is the identification of soil images that are clustered into two types: fertile soils and unfertile soil. The study achieved an accuracy of 85% which could accurately identify 20 images while inaccurately classifying 5 images out of a total of 25 input images.

Anitha Yarava , C. Shoba Bindu
Online social network is a good platform, where users can share their opinions, ideas, products, and reviews with known (friends and relatives) and unknown users. The growing fame and its easy accesses of new users sometimes lead to security and privacy issues. Many methods are reported so far to address these issues but usage of high complex cryptographic algorithms creating new set of performance related challenges to the mobile users. In this paper, light weight soft security (trust) method is proposed. The proposed method “Trust evaluation in online social networks for secured user interactions-TEOSN” uses user social activities in estimation of his trustworthiness. Each user is observed in terms of followed factor-𝑓𝑑 (his interactions with others) and follower factor-𝑓𝑟 (others interaction with him). The factors 𝑓𝑑 and 𝑓𝑟 are estimated using fuzzy logic and user trust-𝜏 is estimated using beta distribution. The performance of TEOSN is verified theoretically and practically. In experimental results, TEOSN is verified against different number of users; especially it outperformed existing methods in trust computation of target users at 2 to 4-hop distances.
