Monkeypox is a rare disease that raised concern among medical specialists following the convi-19 pandemic. It's concerning since monkeypox is difficult to diagnose early on because of symptoms that are similar to chickenpox and measles. Furthermore, because this is a rare condition, there is a knowledge gap among healthcare professionals. As a result, there is an urgent need for a novel technique to combat and anticipate the disease in the early phases of individual virus infection. Multiple CNN-based pre-trained models, including VGG-16, VGG-19, Restnet50, Inception-V3, Densnet, Xception, MobileNetV2, Alexnet, Lenet, and majority Voting, were employed in classification in this study. For this study, multiple data sets were combined, such as monkeypox vs chickenpox, monkeypox versus measles, monkeypox versus normal, and monkeypox versus all diseases. Majority voting performed 97% in monkeypox vs chickenpox, Xception achieved 79% in monkeypox against measles, MobileNetV2 scored 96% in monkeypox vs normal, and Lenet performed 80% in monkeypox versus all.

The Bengali language, spoken extensively across South Asia and among diasporic communities, exhibits considerable dialectal diversity shaped by geography, culture, and history. Phonological and pronunciation-based classifications broadly identify five principal dialect groups: Eastern Bengali, Manbhumi, Rangpuri, Varendri, and Rarhi. Within Bangladesh, further distinctions emerge through variation in vocabulary, syntax, and morphology, as observed in regions such as Chittagong, Sylhet, Rangpur, Rajshahi, Noakhali, and Barishal. Despite this linguistic richness, systematic research on the computational processing of Bengali dialects remains limited. This study seeks to document and analyze the phonetic and morphological properties of these dialects while exploring the feasibility of building computational models particularly Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems tailored to regional varieties. Such efforts hold potential for applications in virtual assistants and broader language technologies, contributing to both the preservation of dialectal diversity and the advancement of inclusive digital tools for Bengali-speaking communities. The dataset created for this study is released for public use.
