IoT-Based Environmental Control System for Fish Farms with Sensor Integration and Machine Learning Decision SupportD. Dhinakaran, S. Gopalakrishnan, M. D. Manigandan et al.
In response to the burgeoning global demand for seafood and the challenges of managing fish farms, we introduce an innovative IoT based environmental control system that integrates sensor technology and advanced machine learning decision support. Deploying a network of wireless sensors within the fish farm, we continuously collect real-time data on crucial environmental parameters, including water temperature, pH levels, humidity, and fish behavior. This data undergoes meticulous preprocessing to ensure its reliability, including imputation, outlier detection, feature engineering, and synchronization. At the heart of our system are four distinct machine learning algorithms: Random Forests predict and optimize water temperature and pH levels for the fish, fostering their health and growth; Support Vector Machines (SVMs) function as an early warning system, promptly detecting diseases and parasites in fish; Gradient Boosting Machines (GBMs) dynamically fine-tune the feeding schedule based on real-time environmental conditions, promoting resource efficiency and fish productivity; Neural Networks manage the operation of critical equipment like water pumps and heaters to maintain the desired environmental conditions within the farm. These machine learning algorithms collaboratively make real-time decisions to ensure that the fish farm's environmental conditions align with predefined specifications, leading to improved fish health and productivity while simultaneously reducing resource wastage, thereby contributing to increased profitability and sustainability. This research article showcases the power of data-driven decision support in fish farming, promising to meet the growing demand for seafood while emphasizing environmental responsibility and economic viability, thus revolutionizing the future of fish farming.

Computing Anti-Derivatives using Deep Neural NetworksD. Chakraborty, S. Gopalakrishnan
This paper presents a novel algorithm to obtain the closed-form anti-derivative of a function using Deep Neural Network architecture. In the past, mathematicians have developed several numerical techniques to approximate the values of definite integrals, but primitives or indefinite integrals are often non-elementary. Anti-derivatives are necessarily required when there are several parameters in an integrand and the integral obtained is a function of those parameters. There is no theoretical method that can do this for any given function. Some existing ways to get around this are primarily based on either curve fitting or infinite series approximation of the integrand, which is then integrated theoretically. Curve fitting approximations are inaccurate for highly non-linear functions and require a different approach for every problem. On the other hand, the infinite series approach does not give a closed-form solution, and their truncated forms are often inaccurate. We claim that using a single method for all integrals, our algorithm can approximate anti-derivatives to any required accuracy. We have used this algorithm to obtain the anti-derivatives of several functions, including non-elementary and oscillatory integrals. This paper also shows the applications of our method to get the closed-form expressions of elliptic integrals, Fermi-Dirac integrals, and cumulative distribution functions and decrease the computation time of the Galerkin method for differential equations.

UNCA: A Neutrosophic-Based Framework for Robust Clustering and Enhanced Data InterpretationD. Dhinakaran, S. Edwin Raja, S. Gopalakrishnan et al.
Accurately representing the complex linkages and inherent uncertainties included in huge datasets is still a major difficulty in the field of data clustering. We address these issues with our proposed Unified Neutrosophic Clustering Algorithm (UNCA), which combines a multifaceted strategy with Neutrosophic logic to improve clustering performance. UNCA starts with a full-fledged similarity examination via a λ-cutting matrix that filters meaningful relationships between each two points of data. Then, we initialize centroids for Neutrosophic K-Means clustering, where the membership values are based on their degrees of truth, indeterminacy and falsity. The algorithm then integrates with a dynamic network visualization and MST (Minimum Spanning Tree) so that a visual interpretation of the relationships between the clusters can be clearly represented. UNCA employs SingleValued Neutrosophic Sets (SVNSs) to refine cluster assignments, and after fuzzifying similarity measures, guarantees a precise clustering result. The final step involves solidifying the clustering results through defuzzification methods, offering definitive cluster assignments. According to the performance evaluation results, UNCA outperforms conventional approaches in several metrics: it achieved a Silhouette Score of 0.89 on the Iris Dataset, a Davies-Bouldin Index of 0.59 on the Wine Dataset, an Adjusted Rand Index (ARI) of 0.76 on the Digits Dataset, and a Normalized Mutual Information (NMI) of 0.80 on the Customer Segmentation Dataset. These results demonstrate how UNCA enhances interpretability and resilience in addition to improving clustering accuracy when contrasted with Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), Neutrosophic C-Means (NCM), as well as Kernel Neutrosophic C-Means (KNCM). This makes UNCA a useful tool for complex data processing tasks
