The study examines how low-point gaze features functioning alongside machine learning (ML) models enable predictions of eight frequent desktop activities which are Debug, Browse, Play, Read, Interpret, Search, Watch and Write. The research uses simple gaze metrics obtained from 24 users through the Tobii X2-30 eye tracker for fixation count analysis along with saccade direction and gaze point statistics in order to support scalable non-intrusive deployment. The research utilized over 200,000 samples from which statistical analytics data was derived along with spatial-temporal eye movement characteristics through preprocessing. Eight well-known ML algorithms including Logistic Regression, Decision Tree and Random Forest, Neural Network and Gradient Boosting, AdaBoost, Naive Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbors received training and evaluation through 80/20 train-test split divisions. Each model conducted testing for activities through the computation of accuracy and precision and recall and F1-score metrics. Results from the evaluations show that Neural Networks coupled with Random Forests produce the best results through average performance metrics which surpass 0.91. The sustained focus activities such as Play, Read, Interpret, Watch and Write responded best to NN while RF demonstrated its strength during tasks of task-switching and problem-solving particularly in Debug and Search activities. The presented study proves the possibility of achieving accurate eye-tracking activity prediction through lightweight gaze features alongside conventional machine learning models. This investigation brings the possibility of creating real-time dynamic interfaces and user-based systems and diagnostic assessments in both consumer and clinical applications.

Accurate vehicle detection is crucial for traffic management to detect violations, monitor traffic flow, and prevent accidents in a timely manner. This paper proposes an improved Yolov5s-G model, which enhances the detection performance for small objects and improves the retention of feature information by introducing a small-object detection layer and a Weighted Cross-scale Fusion module (WCF), and an Adaptively Spatial Feature Fusion4(ASFF4) module. These enhancements enable the model to improve detection accuracy while maintaining moderate computational complexity. Specifically, the new small-object detection layer captures positional information of small objects more effectively, while the WCF module prevents the loss of small-object information during convolution through bidirectional cross-scale link feature fusion. Additionally, the ASFF4 module utilizes adaptive spatial feature fusion to further enhance the processing capability of feature information. Experimental results demonstrate that the improved Yolov5s-G model performs well on the vehicle detection dataset, with a mAP improvement of 9.3% compared to the original Yolov5 model.

In the specific case of voice-over-IP (VoIP) speech streams, detection is particularly challenging because the low bit-rate encoding creates complex, relational dependencies between speech frames. Conventional DL models, which treat data as simple sequences or grids, often fail to capture these complex inter-frame dependencies effectively. To address this gap, this paper presents the first application of a graph neural network (GNN), specifically the GraphSAGE architecture, for steganalysis of compressed VoIP speech streams. The method involves straightforward graph construction from VoIP streams and employs GraphSAGE to capture hierarchical steganalysis information, including both fine-grained details and high-level patterns, thereby achieving high detection accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that the developed approach performs well in uncovering quantization index modulation (QIM)-based steganographic patterns in VoIP signals. It achieves detection accuracy exceeding 98% even for short 0.5-second samples, and 95.17% accuracy under challenging conditions with low embedding rates, representing an improvement of 2.8% over the best-performing state-of-the-art methods. Furthermore, the model exhibits superior efficiency, with an average detection time as low as 0.016 s for 0.5-second samples—an improvement of 0.003 s.

Traditional machine learning methods often rely on large, well-distributed datasets, which are difficult to obtain due to diverse data characteristics across regions and farms. To address this challenge, we proposed a novel framework that integrates Federated Learning (FL) with Few-Shot Learning (FSL) for robust cauliflower leaf disease detection, even in environments with non-identical data distributions. Our hybrid method generalizes at the task level without needing large unlabeled datasets, unlike traditional FL methods that rely heavily on data augmentation or semi-supervised techniques to make up for a lack of data. Few-Shot Learning makes it easier for each client to adapt to new disease classes with only a few samples. This makes the hybrid framework more flexible and efficient in situations where the data is not independent and identically distributed (IID). In our study, we utilized five clients, each having their own support and query sets in an n-way k-shot configuration, where each client trains on a small set of labeled data and evaluates the model on unseen data. Federated Learning facilitates collaborative, decentralized training among these clients, while Few-Shot Learning, implemented through the Reptile meta-learning algorithm, allows each client to efficiently adapt to new classes with limited samples. Moreover, we enhance prediction accuracy through ensemble voting, where predictions from multiple pre-trained deep learning models (VGG16, ResNet50V2, Xception, DenseNet169, and MobileNetV2) are combined. The ensemble voting aggregates the individual model predictions, and the most common class prediction across all models is selected, improving the overall classification performance. This ensemble mechanism is implemented after each federated round, where the model weights are aggregated and updated based on local client training, followed by a final ensemble decision for disease classification. Additionally, we have performed an ablation study on our framework to evaluate the contribution of each component (FL, FSL, and voting ensemble). Experimental results show that the ensemble model achieves an test accuracy of 95% for 2-shot, 97% for 3-shot and 4-shot, and 100% for 5-shot configurations, demonstrating the effectiveness of the framework. The results demonstrate that our Fed-FSL hybrid framework, combined with ensemble voting, provides accurate disease classification even in heterogeneous environments, offering a scalable and adaptable solution for precision agriculture and smart farming systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8417,"journal":{"name":"Array","volume":"28 ","pages":"Article 100516"},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145118895","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}

Many existing deep learning models, such as traditional Neural Networks and Transformer-based models, often struggle to capture both the fine-grained local details and the broader context of the image. To address these challenges, we developed a hybrid ARP-ViT-CNN model that employs a three-stream feature extraction process, where Angular Radial Partitioning (ARP) extracts geometric and structural patterns, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) extract subtle local features, and exploits Vision Transformers (ViT) to code long-range dependencies through self-attention mechanisms. Then, use this feature representation to develop a more advanced classification model that can differentiate several forms of skin malignancies. The Proposed model integrates a comprehensive Pre-processing pipeline, including balancing and enhancing the dataset, to address the problem of underrepresented classes and image variability. We evaluated our model on the publicly available HAM10000 dataset for multi-class skin cancer classification and segmentation. As anticipated, the ARP-ViT-CNN model beat the conventional CNN-only and Transformer-only models on the dataset, achieving an overall accuracy of 98.2% with a precision of 0.94, a recall of 0.96, and a macro-F1 score of 0.95. The ARP-ViT-CNN segmentation module for outlining lesion boundaries performed well, and was especially reliable in providing accurate boundary delineation in the presence of the complicated lesions in the test data. The overall results indicate that our ARP-ViT-CNN framework is effective, and with the ViT being suitable for global contextual learning, ARP being the mechanism by which we were making the model invariant to rotation and scale features, and this is likely contributing to the model’s tolerance to complex dermatological expressions.
