Automated flaw identification has become more important in medical imaging. For patient preparation, unaided prediction of tumor (brain) detection in the magnetic resonance imaging process (MRI) is critical. Traditional ways of recognizing z are intended to make radiologists' jobs easier. The size and variety of molecular structures in brain tumors is one of the issues with MRI brain tumor diagnosis. Deep learning (DL) techniques (artificial neural network (ANN), naive Bayes (NB), multi-layer perceptron (MLP)) are used in this article to detect brain cancers in MRI data. The preprocessing techniques are used to eliminate textural features from the brain MRI images. These characteristics are then utilized to train a machine-learning system.

As internet traffic grows daily, so does the need to protect it. Network security protects data from unauthorized access and ensures their confidentiality and integrity. Steganography is the practice and study of concealing communications by inserting them into seemingly unrelated data streams (cover media). Investigating and adapting machine learning models in digital image steganalysis is becoming more popular. It has been demonstrated that steganography techniques used within such a framework perform more securely than do techniques using hand-crafted pieces. This work was carried out to investigate and examine machine learning methods’ critical contributions and beneficial roles. Machine learning is a field of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed. Steganalysis is considered a classification problem that can be addressed by employing machine learning techniques and recent deep learning tools. The proposed ensemble model had four models (convolution neural networks (CNNs), Inception, AlexNet, and Resnet50), and after evaluating each model, the system voted on the best model for detecting stego images. Since active steganalysis is a classification problem that may be solved using active deep learning tools and modern machine learning methods, this paper’s major goal was to analyze deep learning algorithms’ vital roles and main contributions. The evaluation shows how to successfully detect images that contain a steganography algorithm that hides data in images. Thus, it suggests which algorithms work best, which need improvement, and which are easier to identify.

Swarm Intelligence (SI) algorithms were applied widely in solving complex optimization problems because they are simple, flexible, and efficient. The current paper proposes a new SI algorithm, which is based on the bird-like actions of swallows, which have highly synchronized behaviors of foraging and migration. The optimization algorithm (SWSO) makes use of these behaviors to boost the ability of exploration and exploitation in the optimization process. Unlike other birds, swallows are known to be so precise when performing fast directional alterations and making intricate aerial acrobatics during foraging. Moreover, the flight patterns of swallows are very efficient; they have extensive capabilities to transition between flapping and gliding with ease to save energy over long distances during migration. This allows instantaneous changes of wing shape variations to optimize performance in any number of flying conditions. The model used by the SWSO algorithm combines these biologically inspired flight dynamics into a new computational model that is aimed at enhancing search performance in rugged terrain. The design of the algorithm simulates the swallow’s social behavior and energy-saving behavior, converting it into exploration, exploitation, control mechanisms, and convergence control. In order to verify its effectiveness, (SWSO) is applied to many benchmark problems, such as unimodal, multimodal, fixed-dimension functions, and a benchmark CEC2019, which consists of some of the most widely used benchmark functions. Comparative tests are conducted against more than 30 metaheuristic algorithms that are regarded as state-of-the-art, developed so far, including PSO, MFO, WOA, GWO, and GA, among others. The measures of performance included best fitness, rate of convergence, robustness, and statistical significance. Moreover, the use of (SWSO) in solving real-life engineering design problems is used to prove (SWSO)’s practicality and generality. The results confirm that the proposed algorithm offers a competitive and reliable solution methodology, making it a valuable addition to the field of swarm-based optimization.
