Encryption and Compression Schemes Based on JPEG
Due to the excellent compression performance of JPEG, many schemes based on JPEG have been developed for the encryption and compression of digital images. According to the positioning of the encryption within the compression process, they can be classified into three categories: encryption before compression, joint compression and encryption, and compression before encryption. Encryption before compression means that the image is encrypted before JPEG compression. Typical methods include permutation encryption and some chaos-based encryption schemes that directly operate on the original image

Blockchain-Enabled Supply Chain platform for Indian Dairy Industry
Conventional food supply chains are centralized in nature and possess challenges pertaining to a single point of failure, product irregularities, quality compromises, and loss of data. Numerous cases of food fraud, contamination, and adulteration are daily reported from multiple parts of India, suggesting the absolute need for an upgraded decentralized supply chain model. A country such as India, where its biggest strength is its demographic dividend, cannot afford to malnutrition a large population of its children by allowing them to consume contaminated and adulterated dairy products. In view of the gravity of the situation, a blockchain-enabled supply chain platform for the dairy industry was proposed. With respect to the supply chain platform, the dairy products of choice include milk, cheese, and butter. Blockchain is one of the fastest growing technologies having widespread acceptance across multiple industry verticals.

CollabABILITY Cards
Implementing Collaborative Learning (CL) activities to support the education of children is something that must be carefully designed to achieve the desired goals since just having a group of children working on the same activity does not guarantee proper collaboration. It is something that goes from defining the profile of the students to structuring the collaboration according to the learning objectives, the number of children per group, roles defined, and shared resources among others.

Technique for Searching Data
The growing popularity of data outsourcing to third-party cloud servers has a downside, related to the serious concerns of data owners about their security due to possible leakage. The desire to reduce the risk of loss of data confidentiality has become a motivating start to developing mechanisms that provide the ability to effectively use encryption to protect data. However, the use of traditional encryption methods faces a problem. Namely, traditional encryption, by making it impossible for insiders and outsiders to access data without knowing the keys, excludes the possibility of searching.

A Scalogram-Based CNN Approach for Audio Classification
The automatic monitoring of activities in construction sites through the proper use of acoustic signals is a recent field of research that is currently in continuous evolution. In particular, the use of techniques based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) working on the spectrogram of the signal or its mel-scale variants was demonstrated to be quite successful. However, the spectrogram has some limitations, which are due to the intrinsic trade-off between temporal and spectral resolutions. In order to overcome these limitations, CNNs can employ the scalogram representation, as a proper time–frequency representation of the audio signal.

Denoising Technique for CT Images
Denoising computed tomography (CT) medical images is crucial in preserving information and restoring images contaminated with noise. Standard filters have extensively been used for noise removal and fine details’ preservation. During the transmission of medical images, noise degrades the visibility of anatomical structures and subtle abnormalities, making it difficult for radiologists to accurately diagnose and interpret medical conditions.

CyberGenomics
Cybersecurity (CS) field is a complex discipline with multiple layers. We deconstruct the CS specialist as a material (naturally/ genetically determined) and non-material (psychologically determined) entity. This entity is mapped to CS competences required to conduct everyday tasks where psychological factors are also present (e.g. stress). All the structural prerequisites for the development and functioning of the psyche are genetically coded and controlled. Behavior genetics addresses the interdisciplinary effort to establish causal links between genomic loci and human behavioral traits and neural mechanisms. Almost every human behavioral trait is a result of many genome variants in action altogether with environmental factors. Cybergenomics focuses on contextualizing the behavior genetics aspects in the application of cybersecurity.

Implementation of Location-Based Game Prototypes
Location-based games (LBGs) are a form of experimentation with locative media involving location-aware mobile technologies and the disclosure of user locations. By integrating digital content with physical space through GPS technology, a hybrid space is created, offering a multi-dimensional experience. Locative games exemplify the ludic trend in contemporary culture. The use of locative media further enriches urban spaces by providing location-based information and hidden narratives. These developments originated from artistic experimentation with GPS technology, since artists explored hybrid spaces by integrating data packets or metadata into physical environments.
