    Abstract Accurate medical diagnosis, which involves identifying diseases based on patient symptoms, is often hindered by uncertainties in data interpretation and retrieval. Advanced fuzzy set theories have emerged as effective tools to address these challenges. In this paper, new mathematical approaches for handling uncertainty in medical diagnosis are introduced using q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (q-ROFS) and interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy sets (IVq-ROFS). Three aggregation operators are proposed in our methodologies: the q-ROF weighted averaging (q-ROFWA), the q-ROF weighted geometric (q-ROFWG), and the q-ROF weighted neutrality averaging (q-ROFWNA), which enhance decision-making under uncertainty. These operators are paired More >

    Abstract With the rise of remote collaboration, the demand for advanced storage and collaboration tools has rapidly increased. However, traditional collaboration tools primarily rely on access control, leaving data stored on cloud servers vulnerable due to insufficient encryption. This paper introduces a novel mechanism that encrypts data in ‘bundle’ units, designed to meet the dual requirements of efficiency and security for frequently updated collaborative data. Each bundle includes updated information, allowing only the updated portions to be re-encrypted when changes occur. The encryption method proposed in this paper addresses the inefficiencies of traditional encryption modes, such… More >

    Abstract Lung cancer continues to be a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, emphasizing the critical need for improved diagnostic techniques. Early detection of lung tumors significantly increases the chances of successful treatment and survival. However, current diagnostic methods often fail to detect tumors at an early stage or to accurately pinpoint their location within the lung tissue. Single-model deep learning technologies for lung cancer detection, while beneficial, cannot capture the full range of features present in medical imaging data, leading to incomplete or inaccurate detection. Furthermore, it may not be robust enough to handle the… More >

    Abstract Customer segmentation according to load-shape profiles using smart meter data is an increasingly important application to vital the planning and operation of energy systems and to enable citizens’ participation in the energy transition. This study proposes an innovative multi-step clustering procedure to segment customers based on load-shape patterns at the daily and intra-daily time horizons. Smart meter data is split between daily and hourly normalized time series to assess monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly seasonality patterns separately. The dimensionality reduction implicit in the splitting allows a direct approach to clustering raw daily energy time series… More >

    Abstract Prediction of stability in SG (Smart Grid) is essential in maintaining consistency and reliability of power supply in grid infrastructure. Analyzing the fluctuations in power generation and consumption patterns of smart cities assists in effectively managing continuous power supply in the grid. It also possesses a better impact on averting overloading and permitting effective energy storage. Even though many traditional techniques have predicted the consumption rate for preserving stability, enhancement is required in prediction measures with minimized loss. To overcome the complications in existing studies, this paper intends to predict stability from the smart grid… More >
