    An Optimized Question Classification Framework Using Dual-Channel Capsule Generative Adversarial Network and Atomic Orbital Search Algorithm
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Revanesh, M.; Rudra, B.; Guddeti, R.M.R.
    The advancement in education has emphasized the need to evaluate the quality of the examination questions and the cognitive levels of students. Many educational institutions now acknowledge Bloom's taxonomy-based students' cognitive levels evaluating subject-related learning. Therefore, in this paper, a novel optimized Examination Question Classification framework, referred to as QC-DcCapsGAN-AOSA, is proposed by combining the Dual-channel Capsule generative Adversarial Network (DcCapsGAN) with Atomic Orbital Search Algorithm (AOSA) for preprocessing a real-time online dataset of university examination questions, thus identify the key features from the raw data using Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) and finally classifying the examination questions. Atomic Orbital Search Algorithm is used to fine-tune the parameters' weights of the DcCapsGAN, and then uses these weights to categorize questions as Knowledge Level, Comprehension Level, Application Level, Analysis Level, Synthesis Level, and Evaluation Level. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method (QC-DcCapsGAN-AOSA) when compared to the state-of-the-art methods such as QC-LSTM-CNN and QC-BiGRU-CNN with an accuracy improvement of 23.65% and 29.04%, respectively. © 2013 IEEE.

    Classification of Arecanut X-Ray Images for Quality Assessment Using Adaptive Genetic Algorithm and Deep Learning
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Naik, P.M.; Rudra, B.
    The traditional approach for analyzing the quality of arecanuts is based on their external appearance. However, using machine learning and deep learning techniques, automated classifications were performed. But the true quality can only be analyzed when the internal structure of the arecanut is examined. Therefore, we use the X-ray imaging technique to determine the internal quality of arecanuts. We prepared a novel dataset of arecanut X-ray images and used a YOLOv5 based deep learning architecture for classification. The present study employs an adaptive genetic algorithm based approach for hyperparameter optimization to enhance the mean average precision (mAP) using a light weight model generated using a ghost network and a feature pyramid network (FPN). We have achieved the highest mAP of 97.84% using our method with a lower model size of 15 MB. Our method has excelled in detecting the arecanut compared to cutting-edge object detection algorithms such as YOLOv3, YOLOv4, Detetron, YOLOv6, YOLOv8, and YOLOX. We also acknowledged the performance enhancement using the adaptive genetic algorithm on the Pascal VOC 2007 image dataset. Despite of significant computational requirements for executing genetic algorithms, we proved that genetic algorithms can boost mAP. Additionally, the methodology developed in this investigation produced multiple models with the best mAP featuring optimized hyperparameters. This methodical strategy is helpful for the design of an automatic, non-destructive, integrated X-ray image based classification system. This system has the potential to revolutionize the quality assessment of arecanuts by offering a more efficient evaluation method. © ; 2023 The Authors.

    Quantum-inspired hybrid algorithm for image classification and segmentation: Q-Means++ max-cut method
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2024) Roy, S.K.; Rudra, B.
    Finding brain tumors is a crucial step in medical diagnosis that can have a big impact on how patients turn out. Conventional detection techniques can be laborious and demand a lot of computing power. Brain tumor detection could be made more effective and precise, thanks to the quickly developing field of quantum computing. In this article, we propose a quantum machine learning (QML)-based method for brain tumor extraction and detection based on quantum computing. To implement our strategy, we use a Hybrid Quantum-Classical Convolutional Neural Network (HQC-CNN) that has been trained using a collection of brain MRI images. Additionally, we employ Batchwise Q-Means++ Clustering for segmenting the images and a Max-cut approach with Adiabatic Quantum Computation (AQC) to extract the tumor region from the segmented MRI image. Our results highlight the strength of Quanvolutional Layer in Neural Network and reduced time complexity exponentially or quadratically in clustering and max-cut algorithms respectively and see the potential of quantum computing for improving the accuracy and speed of medical diagnosis and have implications for the future of healthcare technology. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
