    Comparison of Image Restoration using Median, Wiener, and Gaussian Filtering Techniques based on Electrical Tree
    Electrical treeing lead to a major cause of a breakdown in solid insulation. Thus reduced solid insulation performance by degrading the insulation. Hence, it is important to study the electrical treeing and learn the root cause of the treeing formation. In this paper, the performances of median, wiener, and gaussian filters in restoring noisy images are studied based on electrical tree images. The electrical tree colour images is being transform into grayscale images, noisy images using impulse noise (salt and pepper), and finally motion blur are applied. Even though, there are several number of filters available, this paper focus on median, wiener, gaussian, and combination of the filters. In the end, comparison between these filters is made to study the efficiency using PSNR, SNR, and MSE in graph form.

    In most sports today, the decisions taken by referees are supported by the use of electronic technology. The detection and monitoring system of the woodball lines serves the same function, helping the referee to take decisions and modernise woodball sports. The modern sport of wood balls depends entirely on out decisions. The line detection technology helps inform the judge whether the ball is OB (out of Bounds), while the monitoring system notifies players, judges, and the crowd whether or not the gating is effective. But the referee's manual assistance is always necessary to start the game after a good gating, since the player cannot touch the wood ball the whole time. Finally, the percentage of precision and error was achieved.

    Digital health is plagued by low interest and adherence, but research suggests improvements are possible. Non-health care, for-profit digital enterprises like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook undertake behavioural experiments to enhance user engagement. Today, everyone is impacted by commercial determinants of health, and the selection of unhealthy options compounds economic, social, and racial disparities that already exist. However, healthcare providers tend to prioritize pharmacological approaches at the expense of influencing patients’ actions. Thus, it is crucial to ensure that artificial intelligence (AI) is integrated as well as applied within the systems to improve related fields. Both Scopus and Web of Science (WoS) have indexed the previously examined body of work in their respective databases. This review is going to be divided into three different themes: (1) health, (2) education, and (3) other fields. This paper aims to analyse the existing data or outcomes via analysis, categorization, comparison, and summary. It also may uncover research gaps and explore field possibilities. This review included English-language research and literature from 2022. This study summarises current approaches of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in leading behavioural change from different fields of literature.

    Simulation Study of Metamaterial Effect towards Ultra Wide Band Antenna
    In this paper, the design of a metamaterial ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna with a goal towards application in microwave imaging systems for detecting unwanted cells in human tissue, such as in cases of breast cancer, heart failure and brain stroke detection is proposed. The metamaterial unit cell is constructed using circular split ring resonator (CSRR) technique and wire, to attain a design layout that simultaneously exhibits both a negative magnetic permeability and a negative electrical permittivity and attached as superstrate in front of the UWB antenna. This design results in an astonishing negative refractive index that enables amplification of the radiated power of this reported antenna, and therefore, high antenna performance. A Rogers (RT5880) substrate material is used to design and print this reported antenna, and has the following characteristics: thickness of 0.51 mm, relative permeability of one, relative permittivity of 2.70 and loss tangent of 0.02. The metamaterial antenna is design to be operated at frequency between 300MHz to 30GHz which is suitable for biomedical application such as Microwave Imaging. The overall metamaterial antenna size is 90 mm 50 mm 0.51 mm. The design and simulation has been carried out using Computer Simulation Technology Microwave Studio (CST MWS).

    Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting women worldwide. Mammography is the most well-known and effective method to detect early signs of breast cancer. The purpose of this paper is to detect breast cancer on the mammogram image to classify the disease through morphological techniques. Using conventional methods makes radiology difficult to detect cancer found in the patient's breast. This proposal can be divided into several elements, which are input database, image preprocessing, image segmentation, morphological analysis, and object recognition. First, image preprocessing will be done using the Weiner and Median filters. Second, the thresholding method for image segmentation will be performed, and lastly, morphology will remove imperfections introduced during the image segmentation process. Finally, the image is classified into two classes: normal and cancerous images. A median filter and 0.95 thresholding achieve an accuracy of 93.71%, a sensitivity of 94.36%, and a specificity of 82.53% for the cancerous images.

    Atrophic gastritis (AG) is commonly caused by the infection of the Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) bacteria. If untreated, AG may develop into a chronic condition leading to gastric cancer, which is deemed to be the third primary cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Precursory detection of AG is crucial to avoid such cases. This work focuses on H. pylori-associated infection located at the gastric antrum, where the classification is of binary classes of normal versus atrophic gastritis. Existing work developed the Deep Convolution Neural Network (DCNN) of GoogLeNet with 22 layers of the pre-trained model. Another study employed GoogLeNet based on the Inception Module, fast and robust fuzzy C-means (FRFCM), and simple linear iterative clustering (SLIC) superpixel algorithms to identify gastric disease. GoogLeNet with Caffe framework and ResNet-50 are machine learners that detect H. pylori infection. Nonetheless, the accuracy may become abundant as the network depth increases. An upgrade to the current standards method is highly anticipated to avoid untreated and inaccurate diagnoses that may lead to chronic AG. The proposed work incorporates improved techniques revolving within DCNN with pooling as pre-trained models and channel shuffle to assist streams of information across feature channels to ease the training of networks for deeper CNN. In addition, Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) feature fusion method and ReliefF feature selection approaches are intended to revamp the combined techniques. CCA models the relationship between the two data sets of significant features generated by pre-trained ShuffleNet. ReliefF reduces and selects essential features from CCA and is classified using the Generalized Additive Model (GAM). It is believed the extended work is justified with a 98.2% testing accuracy reading, thus providing an accurate diagnosis of normal versus atrophic gastritis.

    Over recent years, computer science (CS) teachers and instructors have faced several challenges in helping students strengthen their understanding of programming. The existing assessment methods could be more effective in assessing students' programming skills and knowledge, thus requiring a review of issues surrounding the instruction of programming courses. Against this backdrop, the authors systematically reviewed the current literature to identify several socio-cognitive factors that can help develop a learner model for learning programming. Specifically, the Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) technique was utilized to identify and select relevant articles from three primary online databases: Scopus, Web of Science, and Eric. Initially, 401 relevant papers were identified and retrieved, further reduced to only 24 articles based on specific selection criteria. As revealed, several demographic factors (such as gender, age, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status) and socio-cognitive factors (motivation, attitude, and interest) have been shown to impact student learning of programming significantly. The authors' findings from the systematic literature review helped synthesize the essential elements of the learner model that must be carefully considered and utilized. Arguably, the use of such a new learner model can compel instructors to teach programming more effectively by clarifying several students' socio-cognitive backgrounds, which collectively have a significant impact on student learning of programming courses or subjects at the primary, secondary, and tertiary levels of education, especially in the Malaysian educational context.

    A corneal ulcers are one of the most common eye diseases. They come from various infections, such as bacteria, viruses, or parasites. They may lead to ocular morbidity and visual disability. Therefore, early detection can reduce the probability of reaching the visually impaired. One of the most common techniques exploited for corneal ulcer screening is slit-lamp images. This paper proposes two highly accurate automated systems to localize the corneal ulcer region. The designed approaches are image processing techniques with Hough transform and deep learning approaches. The two methods are validated and tested on the publicly available SUSTech-SYSU database. The accuracy is evaluated and compared between both systems. Both systems achieve an accuracy of more than 90%. However, the deep learning approach is more accurate than the traditional image processing techniques. It reaches 98.9% accuracy and Dice similarity 99.3%. However, the first method does not require parameters to optimize an explicit training model. The two approaches can perform well in the medical field. Moreover, the first model has more leverage than the deep learning model because the last one needs a large training dataset to build reliable software in clinics. Both proposed methods help physicians in corneal ulcer level assessment and improve treatment efficiency.
