Among these threats, ransomware attacks can cause significant damage.\u0000Attackers are constantly improving their techniques to bypass security channels, which makes it challenging to monitor and\u0000detect the patterns of attacks. Consequently, there is a growing inclination towards employing state-of-the-art techniques to\u0000identify and defend during ransomware attacks. Deep learning is a proven technique that can be employed to learn from large\u0000complex patterns. However, large datasets are required in the training of deep learning models which is a challenging task.\u0000Few-shot learning (FSL) overcomes this limitation by using less data. In this research work, a Siamese network design is\u0000developed by incorporating the architectural principles of AlexNet and features of the VGG configuration. The employed\u0000methodology enables us to evaluate the inherent resemblances and disparities in the data. This novel methodology\u0000demonstrated exceptional performance, with an average accuracy of 97% when compared to various effects and learning\u0000rates. The results of the presented study demonstrate the capacity to greatly enhance cybersecurity by providing a scalable\u0000and effective approach for detecting ransomware.","PeriodicalId":38652,"journal":{"name":"ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140702352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The suggested technique uses a neural network configured for association-based multiple linear regression to forecast the mental depression dataset. The spectrum of depression is predicted using a variety of statistical techniques, including both multiple linear regression and linear regression with neural network tuning. When predicting the severity of depression, tweaked algorithms perform less well. They have been fine-tuned for significant differences in the accuracy, timing, and speed of depression predictions. To address these difficulties, a multiple linear regression solution based on neural network tailored association is suggested.

RSSI is utilized to approximate the distance between the ESP32 and the beacon, while trilateration is employed to determine the precise position of the beacon. The ratio of the imaginary circles is calculated by various signal measurement techniques, and the MQTT protocol is used to set up communication between ESP32 stations and the server. Once the beacon device is visible to all three ESP32 modules, trilateration takes place, and the position of the BLE beacon is displayed as a web page. The server collects the largest RSSI values from the nearest three ESP32 stations, and trilateration is performed from the distances obtained, with the coordinates being sent to the dashboard for visual representation. This strategy is supported by a GPS in outdoor environments, and indoors when structures allow it. Furthermore, the study includes the implementation of an experimental procedure and findings that involve utilizing ESP32 modules as scanning stations to track a BLE beacon.","PeriodicalId":38652,"journal":{"name":"ARPN Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140362627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of this earthquake caused natural disasters, namely liquefaction. One of the areas of Palu City that was affected by liquefaction is located in Petobo Village. With Petobo's position in a relatively sloping area, this situation triggers landslides or landslides along with the liquefaction effect. This study aims to determine the characteristics and bearing capacity of the soil in the affected area and not affected by liquefaction, especially in the central part of the north avalanche. This study consisted of 2 test methods: field testing carried out with the Swedish Weight Sounding at 4 points in the affected area and 2 points in the area unaffected by liquefaction and laboratory testing including sieve analysis, Atterberg limits, direct shear and bulk density. The results of the field research show 3 parameters, namely Nsw, qa and qu. The value of Nsw in the affected area is in the range of 0 n/m-208.33 n/m, the value of qa is in the range of 30 kN/m2-196.67 kN/m2 and the value of qu is in the range of 45 kN/m2-201.25 kN/m2 while the area is not affected, the value of Nsw is in the range of 0 n/m-250 n/m, the value of qa is in the range of 30 kN/m2- 230 kN/m2 and the value of qu is in the range of 45 kN/m2-232.50 kN/m2.

The Thermal Energy Storage System (TSS) at the Gas District Cooling Plant in Perak, Malaysia is the purpose of this research. When fluctuating cooling demands develop, the Thermal Energy Storage System (TSS) is used to transfer energy use from peak to off-peak hours. For TSS and Gas District Cooling (GDC) systems, electric chillers and thermal storage tanks are required. Thermal energy systems (TES) play a role in the ongoing process of increasing integration across diverse energy systems to achieve a cleaner, more flexible, and long-term use of energy resources. Break-even analysis was used in the study, which is a basic tool for analyzing the feasibility of real-world initiatives with uncertainty.

To solve the problem, a complex method was applied, which consists of formalizing alternative technological solutions for managing the stress-strain state of a rock mass by converting it into network models. Further application of optimization algorithms on network models and graphs allows you to choose the most optimal technology for the construction or operation of mine workings. A methodological approach to the design of processes for managing the stress-strain state of a rock mass has been developed. To this end, a decompositional approach was used as a decision-making tool, which made it possible to take into account the variety of parameters that affect the efficiency of the construction or operation of mine workings. After selecting decision-making tools, a criterion was proposed for evaluating the effectiveness of the construction or operation of mine workings, which takes into account the probabilistic reliability and costs of construction or operation. To design multi-parameter processes for managing the stress-strain state, technological cycles for the construction and operation fixing of mine workings were studied using alternative technologies and materials, which made it possible to identify common stages and proceed to the formalization of the problem of finding the optimal technology. The formalization procedure involved the presentation of alternative technologies and solutions through a network model. Further application of optimization algorithms made it possible to determine the most optimal type of support from the standpoint of minimizing the optimization parameter. An algorithmic procedure for the process of designing multi-parameter processes for controlling the stress-strain state of a rock mass based on the use of a decomposition approach has been developed and presented, which made it possible to take into account the diversity in nature and the degree of influence of parameters, as well as to determine the most optimal methods for constructing or operating mine workings.

The abatement of loss and NSW guarantees the lowering of per-unit pricing of power at the consumer end resulting in improved customer satisfaction.
