DSEA: A Dynamic Selective Encryption Algorithm for Enhanced Security and Resource Efficiency in Wireless Communications
Wednesday August 26, 2026 9:30am - 11:30am IST
Authors - Pranay Meshram, Prakash Prasad
Abstract - In the rapidly evolving digital landscape, data security has become paramount, necessitating innovative encryption techniques that balance computational efficiency with robust protection. This research introduces the New Efficient Selective Encryption Algorithm (DSEA), a novel approach to selective text encryption that addresses critical challenges in current cryptographic methods. By leveraging intelligent message analysis and strategic encryption, by providing a robust approach to safeguard valuable information at the same time as minimizing resource usage, DSEA addresses the need for privacy in a progressive manner. The approach utilizes proximity to structural properties of the message, such as the ratio of alphabetic characters, presence of vowels, and semantic connections, to inform the selection of encryption techniques. DSEA thus allows encryption to be applied at a more granular scale, using its identification and prioritization of sensitive text segments, which results in a significantly lower computation overhead compared to traditional techniques for full-document encryption. Experimental results show that DSEA has a better performance comparing with the existing selective encryption schemes, especially in the encryption time percentage, encryption processing time, and encryption proportion.

Authors - Bendre M. R., Vikhe V.P., Vanve G.B.
Abstract - Within the carrier and business industries, there would be an ongoing demand for employees who are promoted to higher positions in the service and corporate sectors. The human resource team faces significant pressure to maintain employee commitment and motivation. Incentives such as promotions, bonuses, and wages are applied to motivate employees to feel closer to their work. The employee promotions are primarily deliberate, expressing gratitude for the employee's dedication to enhancing business standards, ensuring team competency, preventing talent from seeking other opportunities, and upholding the excessive degree of overall performance, all through the assessment year, human resources gather a significant quantity of facts on all elements of worker engagement events and activities. The data collected is continuously expanding in terms of employee service, but it is of little value if it does not provide meaningful insights. As a result, machine learning plays a crucial role in human resource analytics by extracting valuable information from collaborative employee data. The issue lies in the conventional approach to promotion, which is both time- and resource-intensive due to the numerous steps required for segregating and promoting employees. This had a significant impact on the smooth transition of employees into their new positions. Because of this reason, it's miles greater sensible if human assets can predict which workers are more legal and appropriate for advancement or upgrade, earnings increase, and so on. This research aims to propose or expect worker promotion. Utilizing machine learning techniques to forecast which employee might be eligible for a promotion, contingent on the data gathered and their previous achievements. To determine the likelihood of advancement probabilities the classification algorithms together with decision trees (DT), logistic regression (LR), random forests (RF), and k-means clustering are considered broadly utilized within the field. The k-nearest neighbors (K- NN), random forest (RF), and decision tree (DT) classifiers are applied to make the expected forecast.

Wednesday August 26, 2026 12:30pm - 2:30pm IST
Authors - Vani E S, Gourav Subnani, Prajwal Gupta, Shivee Jaiswal, Mihir Sahu
Abstract - Plant species classification accuracy is crucial for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem monitoring. Traditional taxonomy-based methods, which rely heavily on expert analysis, can be inefficient and prone to errors, particularly when processing large datasets. This study leverages deep learning and machine learning techniques to automate plant species identification, with a strong focus on leaf vein morphology analysis. The proposed approach begins with preprocessing leaf images by converting them to grayscale, extracting significant structural features, and skeletonizing vein patterns. Key morphological characteristics, including vein distributions, textures, and geometric attributes, are then used as input for classification models. They use both sophisticated deep learning models like Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and more traditional machine learning approaches like Random Forest (RF), k-Nearest Neighbours (kNN), and Support Vector Machines (SVM). The Xception architecture, known for its depth wise separable convolutions, is particularly effective in capturing intricate vein structures, enhancing classification accuracy. This automated system reduces the dependency on manual identification efforts, making it scalable for large-scale biodiversity research. By integrating deep learning-driven analysis, the proposed framework provides a robust and efficient solution for plant species classification, aiding conservation initiatives and ecological studies.

Abstract - Surface water quality is essential for ecological stability and mortal health, but it faces growing pitfalls from urbanization, industrialization, and husbandry. Traditional in-situ monitoring styles are essential yet limited in their spatial and temporal compass. This paper aims to provide a comparative analysis of different techniques available for surface water quality analysis. We have analysed studies grounded on freely available satellite data from Landsat, Sentinel- 2, and MERIS to determine crucial water quality parameters similar to chlorophyll- at attention, turbidity, and dangerous algal blooms. The review demonstrates the effectiveness of various methods to use spectral imaging to predict parameters such as BOD, chlorophyll content in water. Further to this multi-sensor data integration within the pall calculating platform Google Earth Engine aids in dynamic water quality assessments. Results indicate these technologies indeed give scalable low-cost observers of submarine ecosystems and implicit means of filling gaps between in- situ measures and comprehensive water resource operation. The study identifies implicit in the integration of a Civilians approach grounded on remote seeing in climate modelling, monitoring of ecosystem health, and sustainable water governance.

Abstract - The pressing need for secure, private, decentralized frameworks for machine learning in healthcare has been fueled by the increasingly popularization of Federated Learning (FL). In conventional FL, the aggregation is centralized, allowing potential data leakages or model-poisoning attacks against a central point of failure. A possible solution to these aforementioned impediments is Blockchain-Based Federated Learning (BDFL), as such a setup can utilize the immutability, transparency, and distributed consensus of the blockchain to enhance security and achieve better performance. Nevertheless, the existing review articles have not offered a thorough investigation of BDFL consensus algorithms, their specific applications to the healthcare sector, and an iteratively empirical performance evaluation of their efficiency, scalability, and robustness. This paper provides a systematic and empirical review of state-of-the-art BDFL consensus programs in their application to health care; it analyzes these programs' performances based on consensus efficiency, incentive mechanisms, privacy-preserving capabilities, and computational scalability. Key approaches examined in this study include Proof-of-Contribution (PoC) [2,3], Byzantine Fault Tolerance (BFT) [5], DAG-based Blockchain FL [4,13], Multi-center Federated Learning (MCFL) [24], and Proof-of-Accuracy (PoAcc) [20]. The reason for this focus is that these methods best integrate security, efficiency, and fairness in the context of decentralized health data cooperation. The results indicate that MCFL models would optimize institution-wise healthcare cooperation, PoAcc would optimize the accuracy of medical diagnosis, and the DAG-based blockchain would guarantee high throughput scalability for FL. This review sets out an extensive framework for selecting the best models in BDFL, which will encourage developments in AI-nurtured healthcare data analysis, clinical decision support, and secure EHR management. This study's findings will propel future advancement in federated learning security, quantum-safe consensus mechanisms, and hierarchical blockchain architectures for global health applications.

Analyzing DEI Initiatives in IT/ITES Organizations: A Comparative Study of Organizational Disclosures and Employee Perspectives
Wednesday August 26, 2026 3:30pm - 5:30pm IST
Authors - Parvathi NB Panicker, Bhadra R, PR Mahadevan, Vandana Madhavan
Abstract - Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion have integrated into organizations through incorporations in their Strategic Plans. The presence of a globally dispersed workforce in the IT/ITES sector implies that these strategies are particularly vital in those organizations. Many organizations made pronouncements of publicly declaring their DEI initiatives; however, usually a difference exists between such declarations and the experiences of the employees. This study investigates the given DEI initiatives in IT/ITES organizations through two lenses: namely, by organizational disclosures as well as employee perception. The qualitative research methods involved the gathering of data with corporate DEI reports, sustainability statements, and employee-generated reviews through semi-structured interviews with employees. Thematic analysis reveals leading gaps of representation of leadership, equity in progression of careers, and inclusion incidences in the workplace. Diversity is preached at entry-level but drops off in representation at leadership levels. Promotion and pay equity remain as sticking issues: underrepresented groups tend to progress in their careers at slower rates. Employees considered organizational DEI commitments as more aspirational than actual, with workplace inclusion and psychological safety differing in various organizations. Employees expressed skepticism because many DEI efforts do not set measurable success metrics. The study also underscores that organizations should go beyond performative DEI efforts by incorporating employee feedback, installing structured mentorship programs, and adopting outcome-based DEI evaluation systems

Bridging Career Gaps Using AI-Driven Career Pathways and Engaging Augmented Reality Simulations
Wednesday August 26, 2026 3:30pm - 5:30pm IST
Authors - Sohana R, Niharika R, Khushi Shah, Tanya Singh, M Shahina Parveen
Abstract - The project majorly includes a methodology to create an AI - driven career counselling platform that can be used to recommend various career options for students (focusing on starting to give them more exposure from a younger age. So that they can incorporate the necessary skills required or in general know what is in it for them in every career option available) based on every individual's profile and varied interests. We utilize artificial intelligence to make sure we can provide personalization of suggestions. The platform takes factors like the interests of students, their strengths and what kind of work environments they would want to work in, and then evaluates a list of suitable options. There are also prevailing recent studies that indicate that such systems powered by AI have enhanced the accuracy and reliability of career counselling services by a great extent especially by analyzing extensive behavioral and educational data. Upon this our platform utilizes augmented reality for simulating real- world career environments, making sure that students get a chance to explore their potential career paths by interactively taking part in the simulations. There has also been extensive research that has demonstrated that Augmented reality-based tools on the whole improve and provide enhancement in immersion, hands on experiences and helps with better exploration for various professions. Therefore, we want to merge AI and AR to arrive at best of both worlds and hence approach this problem by providing with an innovative platform that fosters informed decision making and comprehensive career exploration among students. Ultimately our platform's mission is to spread awareness and to align the aspirations that students have with their career paths and to lead to the overall improved educational and career outcomes and job satisfaction.

Enhanced Slice-Aware Energy Optimization in 5G Networks Using Simplicial Homology: A Comprehensive Framework
Wednesday August 26, 2026 3:30pm - 5:30pm IST
Authors - Jaden Ekbote, Sheshank K Patil, Ramakrishna S, Nalini C Iyer
Abstract - In the era of 5G, the dual imperatives of high performance and energy efficiency have led to the development of sophisticated network management techniques. This paper introduces an innovative slice-aware energy optimization framework that leverages simplicial homology to model and analyze network coverage. By representing base stations as vertices in a simplicial complex and encoding overlapping coverage as higher-dimensional simplices, the approach captures connectivity and potential coverage gaps through homological invariants. An optimization algorithm is then formulated to minimize overall power consumption while fulfilling stringent slice-specific quality-of-service (QoS) constraints for enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), and massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC). Extensive simulations in MATLAB demonstrate the viability of the proposed method, showing significant power reductions over baseline uniform allocation schemes without compromising slice performance. This work underscores the potential of topological methods in addressing the energy challenges inherent in next-generation network deployments.
