Breast cancer remains a major cause of mortality among women, where early and accurate detection is critical to improving survival rates. This study presents a hybrid classification approach for mammogram analysis by combining handcrafted statistical features and deep learning techniques. The methodology involves preprocessing with the Shearlet Transform, segmentation using Improved Otsu thresholding and Canny edge detection, followed by feature extraction through Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM), Gray Level Run Length Matrix (GLRLM), and 1st-order statistical descriptors.

Firstly, the optimized structure of the PE molecule was obtained using B3LYP/6-311 + G (d, p) and CAM-B3LYP/6-311 + G (d, p) basis sets. The electron charge density is shown in Mulliken atomic charge as a bar chart and also as a color-filled map in Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MEP).

As a result, this proposed approach utilizes a variety of techniques that will enhance the quality of textual healthcare images, communicate information securely, and interpret textual data from healthcare visuals without difficulty. Natural interference, primarily on the receiver side, reduces text-based healthcare image contrast, and numerous artifacts and adjacent picture element values impede diagnosis.

The above approach performed surveillance of the surrounding area using cameras installed in UAVs and internet of things technologies, and the captured images seem useful for tracking the entire environment. However, innate images from unmanned aerial vehicles show an adaptable visual effect in an uncontrolled environment, making face-mask detection and recognition harder.

Background: As a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, many countries have imposed movement restrictions and implemented lockdowns. However, evidence from a variety of nations showed that the COVID-19 outbreak and its associated quarantine measures triggered a wide range of psychological problems, such as anxiety, depression, and stress in the general population. As a result, the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and predictors of depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms among Tepi town residents during the pandemic lockdown.

Regardless of the fact that existing optical character recognition programmes seem to be quick and effective, the majority of them are not able to correctly recognise text embedded in usual panorama images. The methodology described in this paper is to localise textual image regions and pre-process them using the naïve Bayesian algorithm.
