Treating COVID-19 with machine learning
Article thumbnail
From 2020 to 2023, SARS-CoV-2 destroyed much of our society, while few treatments were available due to the time required for drug discovery. However, with recent advancements in artificial intelligence, it is now ready to fight viruses such as SARS-CoV-2. Chemprop, a machine-learning backbone for molecular properties prediction, can be used to discover novel antiviral drugs by training a classifier model with hundreds of thousands of data points that include molecular information represented by SMILES strings and the observed efficacy in inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 in laboratory tests. The resulting model predicts the effectiveness of untested molecules, which then can be manually tested, minimizing tedious hunting traditionally done by human scientists. With promising performance, the proposed method pushes the boundary of machine learning’s involvement in drug research. The trained model achieved a high accuracy in predicting the effectiveness of drugs against SARS-CoV-2 with an AUC score of 0.8455. However, the model loses accuracy when predicting the effectiveness of drugs against SARS-CoV, a different strand of coronavirus, with an AUC of 0.7302. The model was then run on one of the data sets to locate the molecule most likely effective against COVID-19, demonstrating its applicability. The result was a molecule with SMILES string CN1CCN(CC1)C(=O)COC=2C=CC(C)=CC2 also called 1-(4-Methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-2-p-tolyloxy-ethanone. Then the model DrugChat was utilized to determine the properties of the molecule. The model’s ability to find likely drugs can hasten drug research drastically, potentially saving countless lives during future pandemics.

Secure method of communication using Quantum Key Distribution
Article thumbnail
Secure communication plays a vital role now-a-days. Modern-day secure communication is made possible via cryptography. Modern cryptographic algorithms are based on the process of factoring large integers into their primes, as they are intractable. But the cryptography nowadays is vulnerable to technological advances in computing power like quantum computing and evolution in math to quickly reverse one-way functions like factorization of large integers. Incorporating quantum physics concepts into cryptography is the answer, which results in an assessment of quantum cryptography. A unique type of cryptography known as quantum cryptography makes advantage of quantum mechanics to provide complete protection against the transmitted message. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), a random binary key distribution used in quantum cryptography, enables communication participants to recognize unauthorized listeners. Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is likely the most advanced quantum technology currently accessible with full stack systems already in use. This project’s goal is to develop secure and encrypted communication between the parties with the help of a web application using the BB84 protocol.

Animal detection and classification from camera trap images using residual neural networks
Article thumbnail
Using camera traps is common in animal studies. The camera is often activated when the movement is detected to prevent recording when nothing happens. It includes a collection of images of wildlife from Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park. Deep Learning is built on an understanding of the composition and it is the working of behaviour like CPU of the computer. Deep learning model is mainly working as the basic principle of neural networks to analyse any inputs like data or images and videos and make better accurate with predicted value with less loss percentage. With current systems, wind and sunshine may potentially move the plants and start recording, leading to a large number of blank images. Researchers will manually eliminate them from the study, which is a hard way of classification by manually and very much wastage of time. When there is a lot of data accessible, the system has all it needs to train itself. Deep residual neural networks, such as ResNet50, which are very helpful for object detection of many image data and make more viable to the conservation of wildlife are used in this proposed system. It aids in determining if the provided picture data is of an animal or not with better prediction, as well as training on a useful dataset like Serengeti2, where camera trap image collection yields accuracy of 94.64% with better prediction of tested data with greater precision and recall value.

This paper introduces a groundbreaking automated forecasting process for global currency transactions, specifically designed for e-commerce and fintech companies. Traditional linear models, such as weekly moving averages, ARIMA, and SARIMA, have proven inadequate in capturing non-linearities and complex patterns within the data. To address these limitations, we propose an ensemble of diverse machine learning models. These models, characterized by varying lag periods, integrate regional holiday data, macroeconomic variables, and time-based variables. The proposed process exhibits high scalability, capable of simultaneously predicting forex currency transactions for multiple currencies. The implementation of this forecasting process empowers companies to manage currency exchange risk more effectively, enhance overall financial performance, and increase profits through consolidated transactions. Additionally, the automation of this process eliminates the need for manual forecasting, thereby boosting efficiency, accuracy, and employee morale. The findings of this study carry significant implications for the global e-commerce and fintech companies with operations in multiple currencies. They demonstrate the transformative potential of machine learning models in revolutionizing currency transaction forecasting and assisting in strategic decision-making for finance and treasury teams.
