Abstract:
Image steganography involves hiding a secret message within an image for covert communication, allowing only the intended recipient to extract the hidden message from the “stego” image. The secret message can also be an image itself to enable the transmission of more information, resulting in applications where one image is concealed within another. While existing techniques can embed a secret image of similar size into a cover image with minimal distortion, they often overlook the effects of lossy compression during transmission, such as when saving images in the commonly used JPEG format.

AbstractThis research aims to investigate the incorporation of anamorphism into product design and has resulted in the creation of a series of handheld objects with embedded anamorphic information. Anamorphism is a phenomenon typically applied to images, where it appears distorted from all but one angle.

This includes an assessment of different designs’ impact on the overall recognition of hidden anamorphic objects, focusing on their design attributes to determine the best at conc

Abstract:
This study examines the creation of a party dress inspired by Amphitrite, a sea goddess from Greek mythology, with the potential to be a valuable source of ideas for making a party dress with beads and embroidery garniture. The main objective of this research is to create an aesthetically pleasing party dress with a cultural value that could elevate the elegance of the dress. The Double Diamond model method is used to conduct further studies. In the Discover stage, information on Amphitrite was gathered from various sources and synthesized into a mood board.

The Redwall series by Brian Jacques presents a world of anthropomorphic mice who live within a tightly-knit social structure and struggle for survival against predatory threats. Jacques’s depiction of space is initially simple, relying on archetypal binary oppositions such as up-down and inside-out. However, Redwall Abbey (which, according to L. Mumford’s theory, can be viewed as a variant of the city) possesses a complex identity that transcends its seemingly straightforward framework. As a monastic institution, Redwall Abbey serves as an economic and cultural hub, providing a sanctuary for m

Abstract:
Obtaining precise solar radiation data is the first stage in determining the availability of solar energy. It is also regarded as one of the major inputs for a variety of solar applications. Due to the scarcity of solar radiation measurement data for many locations throughout the world, many solar radiation models are utilized to predict global solar radiation. Indeed, the most widely used AI technique is artificial neural networks (ANNs). Hitherto, while ANNs have been utilized in various studies to estimate global solar radiation (GSR), limited attention has been given to the architecture of

This paper delves into the realm of cryptographic analysis by employing mixed-integer linear programming (MILP), a powerful tool for automated cryptanalysis. Building on this foundation, we apply the division property method alongside MILP to conduct a comprehensive cryptanalysis of the IIoTBC (industrial Internet of Things block cipher) algorithm, a critical cipher in the security landscape of industrial IoT systems. Our investigation into IIoTBC System A has led to identifying a 14-round integral distinguisher, further extended to a 22-round key recovery. This significant finding underscores

Predicting future price of gold has always been an intriguing field of investigation for researchers as well as investors who desire to invest in present and gain profit in the future. Since ancient time, gold is being arbitrated as a leading asset in monetary business. As the worth of gold changes within confined boundaries, reducing the effect of inflation, so it is a beneficial property favoured by many stakeholders. Hence, there is always an urge of a more authenticate model for forecasting the gold price based upon the changes in it in a previous time frame. This study focuses on designin
