Brain Tumor Detection through Thermal Imaging and MobileNETRoham Maiti, Debasmita Bhoumik
Brain plays a crucial role in regulating body functions and cognitive processes, with brain tumors posing significant risks to human health. Precise and prompt detection is a key factor in proper treatment and better patient outcomes. Traditional methods for detecting brain tumors, that include biopsies, MRI, and CT scans often face challenges due to their high costs and the need for specialized medical expertise. Recent developments in machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) has exhibited strong capabilities in automating the identification and categorization of brain tumors from medical images, especially MRI scans. However, these classical ML models have limitations, such as high computational demands, the need for large datasets, and long training times, which hinder their accessibility and efficiency. Our research uses MobileNET model for efficient detection of these tumors. The novelty of this project lies in building an accurate tumor detection model which use less computing re-sources and runs in less time followed by efficient decision making through the use of image processing technique for accurate results. The suggested method attained an average accuracy of 98.5%.

A machine learning based heuristic to predict the efficacy of online saleAditya Vikram Singhania, Saronyo Lal Mukherjee, Ritajit Majumdar et al.
It is difficult to decide upon the efficacy of an online sale simply from the discount offered on commodities. Different features have different influence on the price of a product which must be taken into consideration when determining the significance of a discount. In this paper we have proposed a machine learning based heuristic to quantify the \textit{"significance"} of the discount offered on any commodity. Our proposed technique can quantify the significance of the discount based on features and the original price, and hence can guide a buyer during a sale season by predicting the efficacy of the sale. We have applied this technique on the Flipkart Summer Sale dataset using Support Vector Machine, which predicts the efficacy of the sale with an accuracy of 91.11\%. Our result shows that very few mobile phones have a significant discount during the Flipkart Summer Sale.

An Empirical Study of Incremental Learning in Neural Network with Noisy Training SetShovik Ganguly, Atrayee Chatterjee, Debasmita Bhoumik et al.
The notion of incremental learning is to train an ANN algorithm in stages, as and when newer training data arrives. Incremental learning is becoming widespread in recent times with the advent of deep learning. Noise in the training data reduces the accuracy of the algorithm. In this paper, we make an empirical study of the effect of noise in the training phase. We numerically show that the accuracy of the algorithm is dependent more on the location of the error than the percentage of error. Using Perceptron, Feed Forward Neural Network and Radial Basis Function Neural Network, we show that for the same percentage of error, the accuracy of the algorithm significantly varies with the location of error. Furthermore, our results show that the dependence of the accuracy with the location of error is independent of the algorithm. However, the slope of the degradation curve decreases with more sophisticated algorithms
