Cervical malignant growth is the fourth most typical reason for disease demise in women around the globe. Cervical cancer growth is related to human papillomavirus (HPV) contamination. Early screening made cervical cancer a preventable disease that results in minimizing the global burden of cervical cancer. In developing countries, women do not approach sufficient screening programs because of the costly procedures to undergo examination regularly, scarce awareness, and lack of access to the medical center. In this manner, the expectation of the individual patient's risk becomes very high. There are many risk factors relevant to malignant cervical formation. This paper proposes an approach named CervDetect that uses machine learning algorithms to evaluate the risk elements of malignant cervical formation. CervDetect uses Pearson correlation between input variables as well as with the output variable to pre-process the data. CervDetect uses the random forest (RF) feature selection technique to select significant features. Finally, CervDetect uses a hybrid approach by combining RF and shallow neural networks to detect Cervical Cancer. Results show that CervDetect accurately predicts cervical cancer, outperforms the state-of-the-art studies, and achieved an accuracy of 93.6%, mean squared error (MSE) error of 0.07111, false-positive rate (FPR) of 6.4%, and false-negative rate (FNR) of 100%.

The increasing popularity of mobile phones has led to an abundance of online reviews, making it challenging for consumers to make well-informed purchasing decisions. This study proposes a novel recommendation system-based mobile phone rating classification approach using federated learning and Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) features. We created a novel dataset by scraping over 13,000 mobile phone reviews from Flipkart’s website. The proposed approach involves the development of a federated deep neural network (FDNN) to classify the newly created Flipkart dataset. This approach includes data cleaning, balancing, TF-IDF feature extraction, and prediction using federated learning. We employ two clients and one server and conduct three rounds of experiments. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieved an accuracy of 96.68% on the aggregated server side while maintaining the security of customer data on their local devices. The proposed approach has the potential to assist consumers in making well-informed purchasing decisions and can be extended to other e-commerce platforms with large datasets of online reviews.

Breast cancer incidence has been rising steadily during the past few decades. It is the second leading cause of death in women. If it is diagnosed early, there is a good possibility of recovery. Mammography is proven to be an excellent screening technique for breast tumor diagnosis, but its detection and classification in mammograms remain a significant challenge. Previous studies’ major limitation is an increase in false positive ratio (FPR) and false negative ratio (FNR), as well as a drop in Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) value. A model that can lower FPR and FNR while increasing MCC value is required. To overcome prior research limitations, a modified network of YOLOv5 is used in this study to detect and classify breast tumors. Our research is conducted using publicly available datasets Curated Breast Imaging Subset of DDSM (CBIS-DDSM). The first step is to perform preprocessing, which includes image enhancing techniques and the removal of pectoral muscles and labels. The dataset is then annotated, augmented, and divided into 60% for training, 30% for validation, and 10% for testing. The experiment is then performed using a batch size of 8, a learning rate of 0.01, a momentum of 0.843, and an epoch value of 300. To evaluate the performance of our proposed model, our proposed model is compared with YOLOv3 and faster RCNN. The results show that our proposed model performs better than YOLOv3 and faster RCNN with 96% mAP, 93.50% MCC value, 96.50% accuracy, 0.04 FPR, and 0.03 FNR value. The results show that our suggested model successfully identifies and classifies breast tumors while also overcoming previous research limitations by lowering the FPR and FNR and boosting the MCC value.

With the quick evolution of medical technology, the era of big data in medicine is quickly approaching. The analysis and mining of these data significantly influence the prediction, monitoring, diagnosis, and treatment of tumor disorders. Since it has a wide range of traits, a low survival rate, and an aggressive nature, brain tumor is regarded as the deadliest and most devastating disease. Misdiagnosed brain tumors lead to inadequate medical treatment, reducing the patient's life chances. Brain tumor detection is highly challenging due to the capacity to distinguish between aberrant and normal tissues. Effective therapy and long-term survival are made possible for the patient by a correct diagnosis. Despite extensive research, there are still certain limitations in detecting brain tumors because of the unusual distribution pattern of the lesions. Finding a region with a small number of lesions can be difficult because small areas tend to look healthy. It directly reduces the classification accuracy, and extracting and choosing informative features is challenging. A significant role is played by automatically classifying early-stage brain tumors utilizing deep and machine learning approaches. This paper proposes a hybrid deep learning model Convolutional Neural Network-Long Short Term Memory (CNN-LSTM) for classifying and predicting brain tumors through Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI). We experiment on an MRI brain image dataset. First, the data is preprocessed efficiently, and then, the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is applied to extract the significant features from images. The proposed model predicts the brain tumor with a significant classification accuracy of 99.1%, a precision of 98.8%, recall of 98.9%, and F1-measure of 99.0%.
The Internet of Things (IoT), considered an intriguing technology with substantial potential for tackling many societal concerns, has been developing into a significant component of the future. The foundation of IoT is the capacity to manipulate and track material objects over the Internet. The IoT network infrastructure is more vulnerable to attackers/hackers as additional features are accessible online. The complexity of cyberattacks has grown to pose a bigger threat to public and private sector organizations. They undermine Internet businesses, tarnish company branding, and restrict access to data and amenities. Enterprises and academics are contemplating using machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) for cyberattack avoidance because ML and DL show immense potential in several domains. Several DL teachings are implemented to extract various patterns from many annotated datasets. DL can be a helpful tool for detecting cyberattacks. Early network data segregation and detection thus become more essential than ever for mitigating cyberattacks. Numerous deep-learning model variants, including deep neural networks (DNNs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), are implemented in the study to detect cyberattacks on an assortment of network traffic streams. The Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity’s CICDIoT2023 dataset is utilized to test the efficacy of the proposed approach. The proposed method includes data preprocessing, robust scalar and label encoding techniques for categorical variables, and model prediction using deep learning models. The experimental results demonstrate that the RNN model achieved the highest accuracy of 96.56%. The test results indicate that the proposed approach is efficient compared to other methods for identifying cyberattacks in a realistic IoT environment.
