Blockchain-Based E-Voting Systems
The employment of blockchain technology in electronic voting (e-voting) systems is attracting significant attention due to its ability to enhance transparency, security, and integrity in digital voting. Blockchain technology has been recognized as a potential solution for secure and transparent e-voting systems. By leveraging the decentralization, immutability, and transparency of blockchain technology, e-voting systems can prevent fraud and manipulation, improve voter anonymity, and increase trust in the electoral process. Moreover, blockchain-based e-voting systems can reduce the cost and time associated with traditional voting systems.

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.

Semantic Textual Similarity
Semantic textual similarity (STS) refers to the degree of similarity between two pieces of text based on their meaning or semantics and assesses how closely related or similar two pieces of text are based on the information they convey, regardless of variations in wording or structure. STS has been explored from both linguistic and computational perspectives. It holds significance in various NLP applications, and in recent years, Transformer-based neural language models have emerged as the state-of-the-art solutions for many of these applications.

Hybrid Intelligent Transport Systems Networks
Cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS) continue to be developed to enhance transportation safety and sustainability. The communication of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) systems is inherently open, leading to vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit. This represents a threat to all road users, as security failures can lead to privacy violations or even fatalities.
