The field of neural style transfer refers to the re-rendering of content image while fusing the features of a style image. The recent studies either focus on multiple style transfer or arbitrary style transfer while using perceptual and fixpoint content losses in their respective network architectures. The aforementioned losses provide notable stylization results but lack the liberty of style control to the user.

The abnormal heart conduction, known as arrhythmia, can contribute to cardiac diseases that carry the risk of fatal consequences. Healthcare professionals typically use electrocardiogram (ECG) signals and certain preliminary tests to identify abnormal patterns in a patient's cardiac activity. To assess the overall cardiac health condition, cardiac specialists monitor these activities separately.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly evolving technology with a wide range of potential applications, but the security of IoT networks remains a major concern. The existing system needs improvement in detecting intrusions in IoT networks. Several researchers have focused on intrusion detection systems (IDS) that address only one layer of the three-layered IoT architecture, which limits their effectiveness in detecting attacks across the entire network.
