Insider Cyber Security Threat
The COVID-19 pandemic made all organizations and enterprises work on cloud platforms from home, which greatly facilitates cyberattacks. Employees who work remotely and use cloud-based platforms are chosen as targets for cyberattacks. For that reason, cyber security is a more concerning issue and is incorporated into almost every smart gadget and has become a prerequisite in every software product and service. There are various mitigations for external cyber security attacks, but hardly any for insider security threats, as they are difficult to detect and mitigate. Thus, insider cyber security threat detection has become a serious concern.

Gastrointestinal Disease Classification
Gastrointestinal (GI) tract diseases are on the rise in the world. These diseases can have fatal consequences if not diagnosed in the initial stages. WCE (wireless capsule endoscopy) is the advanced technology used to inspect gastrointestinal diseases such as ulcerative-colitis, polyps, esophagitis, and ulcers. WCE produces thousands of frames for a single patient’s procedure for which manual examination is tiresome, time-consuming, and prone to error; therefore, an automated procedure is needed.

Salp Swarm Algorithm
The Salp Swarm Algorithm (SSA) is a bio-inspired metaheuristic optimization technique that mimics the collective behavior of Salp chains hunting for food in the ocean. While it demonstrates competitive performance on benchmark problems, the SSA faces challenges with slow convergence and getting trapped in local optima like many population-based algorithms.

Image Fusion Methods
Image fusion is the generation of an informative image that contains complementary information from the original sensor images, such as texture details and attentional targets. Existing methods have designed a variety of feature extraction algorithms and fusion strategies to achieve image fusion.

Occluded Face Recognition
Occlusion in facial photos poses a significant challenge for machine detection and recognition. Consequently, occluded face recognition for camera-captured images has emerged as a prominent and widely discussed topic in computer vision. The standard face recognition methods have achieved remarkable performance in unoccluded face recognition but performed poorly when directly applied to occluded face datasets. The main reason lies in the absence of identity cues caused by occlusions. Therefore, a direct idea of recovering the occluded areas through an inpainting model has been proposed.

Graph Clustering Algorithms
Graph clustering has received considerable attention, and its applications are numerous, ranging from the detection of social communities to the clustering of computer networks. It is classified as an NP-class problem, and several algorithms have been proposed with specific objectives. There also exist various quality metrics for evaluating them. Having clusters with the required density can be beneficial because it permits the effective deployment of resources.

Visiting Heritage Sites in AR and VR
Advances in digitization technologies have made possible the digitization of entire archaeological sites through a combination of technologies, including aerial photogrammetry, terrestrial photogrammetry, and terrestrial laser scanning. At the same time, the evolution of computer algorithms for data processing and the increased processing power made possible the combination of data from multiple scans to create a synthetic representation of large-scale sites. This route was opened by the gaming industry. In terms of research, the exploitation of these new assets in conjunction with new visual rendering technologies, such as virtual and augmented reality, can create new dimensions for education and leisure.

Speech Emotion Recognition
Speech is the most natural way of human communication. Affective computing systems based on speech play an important role in promoting human–computer interaction, and emotion recognition is the first step. Due to the lack of a precise definition of emotion and the inclusive and complex influence of emotion generation and expression, accurately recognizing speech emotions is still difficult. Speech emotion recognition (SER) is an important problem that is receiving increasing interest from researchers due to its numerous applications, such as e-learning, clinical trials, audio monitoring/surveillance, lie detection, entertainment, video games, and call centers.

GAN-Based Tabular Data Generator for Constructing Synopsis
In data-driven systems, data exploration is imperative for making real-time decisions. However, big data are stored in massive databases that are difficult to retrieve. Approximate Query Processing (AQP) is a technique for providing approximate answers to aggregate queries based on a summary of the data (synopsis) that closely replicates the behavior of the actual data. The use of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for generating tabular data has emerged as a pivotal method in AQP for constructing accurate synopses. Moreover, the advancement of tabular GAN architectures addresses the specific challenges encountered in synopsis construction. These advanced GAN variations exhibit a promising capacity to generate high-fidelity synopses, potentially transforming the efficiency and effectiveness of AQP in data-driven systems.
