Cryptocurrencies are in high demand now due to their volatile and untraceable nature. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin are just a few examples. This research seeks to identify deception and probable fraud in Ethereum transactional processes. We have developed this capability via Cha-osNet, an Artificial Neural Network constructed using Generalized Luröth Series maps. Chaos has been objectively discovered in the brain at many spatiotemporal scales. Several synthetic neuronal simulations, including the Hindmarsh-Rose model, possess chaos, and individual brain neurons are known to display chaotic bursting phenomena. Although chaos is included in several Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), for instance, in Recursively Generating Neural Networks, no ANNs exist for classical tasks entirely made up of chaoticity. ChaosNet uses the chaotic GLS neurons' property of topological transitivity to perform classification problems on pools of data with cutting-edge performance , lowering the necessary training sample count. This synthetic neural network can perform categorization tasks by gathering a definite amount of training data. ChaosNet utilizes some of the best traits of networks composed of biological neurons, which derive from the strong chaotic activity of individual neurons, to solve complex classification tasks on par with or better than standard Artificial Neural Networks. It has been shown to require much fewer training samples. This ability of ChaosNet has been well exploited for the objective of our research. Further, in this article, Cha-osNet has been integrated with several well-known ML algorithms to cater to the purposes of this study. The results obtained are better than the generic results.

This study examines the effects of health expenditure, energy consumption, CO 2 emissions, population size, and income on health outcomes in 46 Asian nations between 1997 and 2019. Cross-sectional dependence (CSD) and slope heterogeneity (SH) tests are utilized due to the close linkages between Asian nations as a result of commerce, tourism, religion, and international agreements. The research uses unit root and cointegration tests of the second generation after validating CSD and SH issues. Due to the results of the CSD and SH tests, it is clear that conventional methods of estimation are inappropriate, so a new panel method, the inter autoregressive distributive lag (CS-ARDL) model, is used instead. In addition to CS-ARDL, the study's results were checked with a common correlated effects mean group (CCEMG) method and an augmented mean group (AMG) method. According to the CS-ARDL study, higher rates of energy use and healthcare spending lead to better health outcomes for Asian countries over the long run. CO 2 emissions are shown to be harmful to human health, according to the study. The influence of a population's size on health outcomes is shown to be negative in the CS-ARDL and CCEMG, but favorable in the AMG. Only the AMG coefficient is significant. In most instances, the results of the AMG and CCEMG corroborate the results of the CS-ARDL. Among all the factors influencing life expectancy in Asian countries, healthcare spending is the most influential. Hence, to improve health outcomes, Asian countries need to take the required actions to boost health spending, energy consumption, and long-term economic growth. To achieve the best possible health outcomes, Asian countries should also reduce their CO 2 emissions.

The threat of global warming has increased due to industrialization, urbanization, population expansion, and changes in lifestyle among the Group of Seven(G7) Carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) directly affect how much electricity can be generated from various sources. This research aims to identify environmental hazards associated with various energy sources. Analyzing the impact of various energy sources on CO2 emissions from electricity and heat production using data from the G7. The data is analyzed using quantile regression (QR), generalized method of moments (GMM), random effects (RE), and fixed effects (FE). Our results indicate a substantial positive impact on CO2 emissions regardless of the technology used to generate coal and gas power. Coal-fired power plants have a larger impact on the environment than other sources of emissions. Also, all coal and gas coefficients are significant in FE, RE, GMM, and QR. Oil coefficients have a negative impact on environmental degradation and are significant for FE, RE, and D-GMM regressions. Hydroelectric and renewable energy production can reduce CO2 emissions in all regression models. Nuclear energy has a beneficial impact on the environment, but the coefficients are only significant for S-GMM and the last quantile. However, the most significant result of this study is the identification of a cause-and-effect relationship between CO2 emissions and energy production. Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions can be lowered by shifting away from fossil fuels and toward renewable and hydroelectric sources. The research also suggests several renewable and alternative electricity production policies for sustainable energy.

Sales Forecasting forms the heart of effective data driven decision making and affects every function in a business. There has been a quantum leap in technology choices available for predicting sales. Novel methods in deep learning and SVM have evolved while conventional time-series models like ARIMA, ARCH and Holts-Winter continue to be leveraged. Extensive progress has also been made on aspects such as explain ability and outlier treatment. There is however a gap in applying technology to business areas such as industries. Each industry is unique in terms of nuances and challenges it faces. These impact the forecasting process and hence should impact technology choices as well. This paper addresses that gap by proposing a novel recommendation framework comprising algorithms, accuracy metrics and seasonality treatment that have highest chance of successful application for respective industry. Since the top 3 industries that leverage Forecasting are BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance), Pharmaceutical and Retail, we look at a cross-section between them. This paper analyses differences in forecasting through historic research, interviews with industry professionals and 3 experiments. Some findings include Pharmaceutical being more seasonality driven whereas Retail being more causality driven owing to high impact of pricing and promotions. One logical conclusion is that conventional time-series models would have higher suitability with pharmaceutical while regression or neural networks maybe better fit for retail. Such thumb rules would aid easier and faster navigation in sales forecasting across industries.

Economic Intrusion detection is discovering unauthorized net-work activity and recognizing whether the data is an abnormal network transmission. Recent research has focused on semi-supervised learning mechanisms for identifying abnormal net-work traffic to deal with both labeled and unlabeled in industry. Economic shift generation is very crucial in creating a balance between hyper sensitive generation and superficial balance. However, real-time training and classifying network traffic remains as challenges, as they can lead to the degradation of the overall dataset and difficulties in preventing attacks. Addi-tionally, existing semi-supervised learning research may not comprehensively analyze the experimental results. To address these issues, we propose XA-GANomaly, a novel technique for explainable adaptive semi-supervised learning using GANoma-ly, an image anomalous detection model, that sequentially trains small subsets in a dynamic way. First, we introduce a Deep Neural Network (DNN) based GANomaly for semi-supervised learning. Second, we present our proposed adaptive algorithm for DNN-based GANomaly, validated with four sub-sets of the adaptive dataset. Finally, we demonstrate a monitor-ing system that incorporating three explainable techniques – SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), reconstruction error visualization, and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding (t-SNE) – to respond effectively to attacks toward traffic data at each stage of feature engineering, semi-supervised learning, and adaptive learning. Compared to other single-class classifi-cation techniques, the proposed DNN-based GANomaly achieves higher scores than 13% and 8% of F1 scores and accuracy of 4.17% and 11.51% for the NSL-KDD and UNSW-NB15 datasets, respectively. In addition, our adaptive learning experiments show mostly improved results over initial values, and we provide an analysis and monitoring system based on the combination of the three explainable methodologies. As a result, our proposed method has the potential to be applied in the real industry, and future research will explore on handling unbalanced real-time datasets in various scenarios.The essence of such shifts in economic paradigm can be better understood by applying various triggers in functional machine to machine interaction.This can be better understood by creating a super-vised paradigm which better understands global economic shifts.

The “change management” process is a helpful approach for changing the environment of business companies to go ahead in the upcoming days. It has been known that the employees are the main part of an organisation who has not accepted the changing process at first; and for that reason, the appropriate leadership strategy is required to bring the changes within. The start-ups of Asia have been explained in this study for improving the leadership techniques by which the leaders have enhanced their leadership qualities to accept the change management process. The analysis of the responses derived from the survey has been done using the statistical tool “SPSS,” which has been chosen for its tools of descriptive and inferential statistics. The outcomes of the data analysis have been evaluated to depict the inference of the results of the correlation and regression of the data. Moreover, the results of the statistical analysis have been discussed in alignment with the hypotheses that have been formed using the independent and dependent variables.
