This paper presents an S-transform-based Electroencephalogram channel optimization and feature extraction methodology for monitoring mental vigilance level of humans. Vigilance level detection methodology consists of four steps. In the first stage, two types of Electroencephalogram signals (alert and drowsy) are acquired from 30 healthy subjects and decomposed into sub-bands using the S-transform. In the second stage, permutation entropy of the S-transform coefficients is calculated and Electroencephalogram channel optimization is performed. S-transform-based statistical features are computed from the optimized Electroencephalogram channels, in the third stage. In the fourth stage, artificial intelligence techniques such as Least Square-Support Vector Machine, Artificial Neural Network and Naive Bayes Classifier are used for the classification of Electroencephalogram signals using extracted features. The performance of the feature extraction methodology is tested on the Electroencephalogram data of 30 healthy subjects. Experimental results ensured the effectiveness of proposed methodology for the estimation of mental vigilance level by using Electroencephalogram signals. It is observed that the Artificial Neural Network classifier is a good candidate for pre-emptive automatic vigilance level detection system for Brain-Computer Interface applications.

A inner knuckle print identification system has been designed and developed. This work presents a new approach to authenticate people according to their finger textures. This proposed method consists of three stages. They are preprocessing, feature extraction and matching. In the first stage, noise is suppressed using an image filtering. In the second stage, features are extracted by local line binary pattern. Artificial neural network and support vector machine are used to provide an efficient matching algorithm for inner knuckle print authentication. After matching, the algorithm returns the best match for the given fingerprint parameters. The use of inner knuckle print in biometric identification has been the most widely used authentication system. A classification with an accuracy of 89% and 97% has been obtained by support vector machine and artificial neural network classifier.

The illegal hackers  penetrate the servers and networks of corporate and financial institutions to gain money and extract vital information. The hacking varies from one computing system to many system. They gain access by sending malicious packets in the network through virus, worms, Trojan horses etc. The hackers scan a network through various tools and collect information of network and host. Hence it is very much essential to detect the attacks as they enter into a network. The methods  available for intrusion detection are Naive Bayes, Decision tree, Support Vector Machine, K-Nearest Neighbor, Artificial Neural Networks. A neural network consists of processing units in complex manner and able to store information and make it functional for use. It acts like human brain and takes knowledge from the environment through training and learning process. Many algorithms are available for learning process This work carry out research on analysis of malicious packets and predicting the error rate in detection of injured packets through artificial neural network algorithms.

This paper presents an efficient OCR system for the recognition of offline Pashto isolated characters. The lack of an appropriate dataset makes it challenging to match against a reference and perform recognition. This research work addresses this problem by developing a medium-size database that comprises 4488 samples of handwritten Pashto character; that can be further used for experimental purposes. In the proposed OCR system the recognition task is performed using convolution neural network. The performance analysis of the proposed OCR system is validated by comparing its results with artificial neural network and support vector machine based on zoning feature extraction technique. The results of the proposed experiments shows an accuracy of 56% for the support vector machine, 78% for artificial neural network, and 80.7% for the proposed OCR system. The high recognition rate shows that the OCR system based on convolution neural network performs best among the used techniques.
