AN ANALYSIS OF THE BNPL (BUY NOW PAY LATER) TREND IN MODERN INDIA WITH INSIGHTS FROM MUMBAI
type: item
description: The idea of Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) ages back in time; the period when small retail stores also called as ‘Kirana’ stores were the lifeline of each and every household. Maintaining an account book for each customer and tallying the same at the end of the month was the normal norm in those days. This gave a higher spending power or it gave them the liberty to spend over their capacity is a question worth researching. The same concept is now opted by the ‘online retail store’ and also ‘online payment applications’ likeAmazon, Freecharge, Paytmetc. The objective of this paper is to understand the awareness level among consumers regarding the brands offering BNPL trend. Further, the researchers are also trying to comprehend the impact of BNPL on the economy of India. Additionally, they are also trying to gauge the future of BNPL in a Tier I city. The researchers will be performing a convenience sampling with a sample size of approximately 100 consumers. According to the research findings majority of the people are aware about the concept of BNPL in Mumbai. Further, it is majorly used on e-commerce websites like Amazon and Flipkart. Further, the current status of the BNPL is not that significant and can prove to be a negative impact on the economy. This feature has proved to be a benefit; in order to increase the spending capacity of the consumer to a large extent. They are optimistic about the future of the same and that it will be a boost for the economy in the near future; if applied in the correct manner.

Data-Driven Prediction of Electrical Energy Efficiency from Consumer Behavior
type: item
description: Energy efficiency has been an important concern in India since the latter part of the twentieth century. The primary objective of this survey is to evaluate the level of energy efficiency awareness among Indian consumers. For this purpose, households and showrooms in two districts—Bengaluru Urban (Karnataka) and Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh)—were selected for data collection, including feedback from sellers. The collected data was analyzed to develop regression models aimed at predicting individual awareness of energy efficiency. The analysis focused on five key criteria to identify factors influencing consumer knowledge and behavior regarding energy-efficient practices. The survey results indicate that energy efficiency awareness in India remains relatively low, particularly in smaller households and less urbanized areas. Using a dataset comprising approximately 50 households and 25 showrooms, relationships between household energy use behaviors were estimated. The findings suggest that knowledge of energy consumption patterns and available energy-efficient technologies is positively associated with the adoption of energy conservation measures. Additionally, household characteristics, including age, education, and income, significantly influence energy use behaviors, with younger and more educated households showing a higher likelihood of adopting energy-efficient appliances and practices. These insights highlight the need for targeted awareness campaigns and educational initiatives to promote energy-efficient practices across diverse consumer groups in India

ROLE OF NANO-SILICA IN ENHANCING THE DURABILITY OF CONCRETE: AN ANALYTICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL EVALUATION
type: item
description: This study assesses the sorptivity, water absorption, and acid resistance of the M70 grade concrete concrete that has been modified by the use of nano silica. As a strong reference mix, 10 percent silica fume and 11 percent fly ash were used to prepare the normal M70 concrete as partial replacements of cement. To improve its durability, it was added that nano silica was used as an extra partial substitute. Resistance to acids was evaluated by casting concrete cubes, curing them in 28 days, and exposing them to 5 percent sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) and 5 percent hydrochloric acid (H Cl) after 30 and 90 days, respectively. Water absorption test and sorptivity test were also undertaken according to the set procedures in order to test permeability and pore structure improvement. According to the findings, micro silica concrete showed low levels of degradation as compared to normal mix. Nano silica concrete lost weight of 2.12% in HCl and 2.95% in H2SO4 after exposure to acid of 90 days, compared with a normal mix, which lost 4.51% and 5.75% of its weight, respectively. In the case of nano silica concrete, the remaining compressive strength compared to the original was 93 and the normal mix constituted 86. The water absorption percentage decreased with 2.45% in the normal mix to 1.65 in nano silica concrete. Even the capillary suction and permeability became significantly lower, as it is observed that sorptivity decreased to 1.39 mm, water absorption decreased, and acid resistance increased, which are factors leading to the overall durability and service life of highstrength concrete.

type: item
description: Chest X-ray diagnostics play a crucial role in detecting and diagnosing various respiratory conditions, including pneumonia, tuberculosis, lung cancer, and COVID-19. Radiologists analyze X-ray images to identify abnormalities, but the process is time-consuming and prone to human error. The history of chest X-ray diagnostics has evolved from manual interpretation to computer-assisted detection methods, enhancing accuracy and efficiency. Early prediction models relied on statistical techniques and rule-based systems, which lacked adaptability to complex patterns. Before AI advancements, diagnosis depended on radiologists' expertise, with methods such as manual film analysis and basic image processing techniques. These approaches required significant time, leading to delays in treatment. Several early computer-aided detection systems provided limited support, but they lacked precision and required constant human intervention. The increasing demand for rapid and accurate diagnoses, combined with the limitations of manual analysis, has driven the need for an AI-powered approach. Human dependency, misdiagnosis due to fatigue, and inefficiency in handling large volumes of data are significant challenges in conventional diagnostic methods. Machine learning models trained on vast datasets can accurately classify chest diseases, reducing diagnostic errors and improving patient outcomes. Integrating deep learning techniques with a web application enables automated, real-time predictions, allowing users to upload X-ray images and receive instant analysis. This system enhances accessibility and supports healthcare professionals in making informed decisions. By leveraging convolutional neural networks, image preprocessing, and predictive analytics, the proposed system significantly improves diagnostic accuracy, speed, and reliability, minimizing the burden on medical professionals while ensuring early disease detection

Wireless Sensor Network With Modified Sdn For Dynamic Load Balanced And Multipath Routing
type: item
description: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have undergone significant advancements over the past few decades, becoming a crucial component in various applications such as environmental monitoring, healthcare, and industrial automation. Traditionally, WSNs have relied on static routing protocols that lack adaptability to changing network conditions. This rigidity often results in congestion, energy inefficiency, and suboptimal overall network performance. Fixed routing paths frequently cause imbalanced load distribution, ultimately reducing the lifespan and efficiency of sensor nodes. A key limitation of conventional WSNs is their inability to accommodate dynamic network changes, including node failures, energy depletion, or environmental disruptions. These challenges lead to inefficient routing, redundant data retransmissions, and increased energy consumption. Moreover, traditional WSN architectures generally exhibit poor scalability, making it difficult to maintain consistent performance as the network size increases. Single-path routing, commonly used in these systems, further exacerbates the risk of data loss in the event of path failure or congestion. This research addresses the need for a more adaptive and efficient routing mechanism capable of responding to dynamic network conditions while ensuring load balancing and fault tolerance. The primary motivation is to enhance the reliability, energy efficiency, and scalability of WSNs, especially in large-scale deployments where conventional routing techniques fall short. To tackle these challenges, the proposed system integrates Software-Defined Networking (SDN) with WSNs. SDN introduces centralized control and real-time routing adaptation, enabling dynamic load balancing and multipath routing. This integration allows for more flexible and efficient traffic management, improved fault tolerance, and optimal resource utilization. By dynamically adjusting routes and distributing the network load, the system aims to overcome the …

SMART MAINTENANCE STRATEGIES FOR ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS USING MACHINE LEARNING
type: item
description: Predictive maintenance (PdM) is a proactive strategy aimed at anticipating equipment failures before they occur, thereby ensuring the reliable operation of electrical systems. By leveraging advanced data analytics and machine learning, PdM analyzes machinery conditions and performance metrics to enable timely and efficient maintenance. This approach is critical for minimizing downtime and reducing maintenance costs in industrial operations. Traditional maintenance strategies are typically either reactive or preventive. Reactive maintenance, or "run-to-failure," involves repairing equipment only after a breakdown, resulting in significant downtime and higher costs. Preventive maintenance, performed at regular intervals regardless of equipment condition, often leads to unnecessary servicing and does not account for actual wear and tear. Both methods fail to fully utilize the vast amount of operational data generated by modern machinery, missing opportunities to optimize maintenance schedules based on real-time equipment conditions. The primary limitation of traditional maintenance strategies lies in their inefficiency and cost. These approaches do not incorporate real-time data to accurately predict maintenance needs, leading to either excessive servicing or unexpected equipment failures. This highlights the need for a more intelligent system that can predict maintenance requirements based on actual equipment conditions. The motivation for this project is to enhance the efficiency and reliability of electrical equipment maintenance. Machine learning-based predictive maintenance can significantly reduce downtime, lower operational costs, and extend equipment lifespan. By using data from various sensors that monitor critical operational parameters, this project aims to predict potential failures and ensure maintenance is conducted only when necessary. The proposed system employs a Decision Tree Classifier to predict maintenance requirements using a comprehensive dataset…

ADVANCED PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE USING CATBOOST CLASSIFIER FOR FAULT DETECTION IN INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT
type: item
description: In the realm of industrial automation, predictive maintenance has emerged as a pivotal strategy to ensure operational efficiency, minimize equipment downtime, and reduce maintenance costs. This study presents an advanced predictive maintenance framework aimed at the early detection of mechanical faults in industrial equipment using machine learning techniques. The primary objective is to classify the operational status of machinery as either Normal or Fault based on sensor data and operational features. The process begins with data preprocessing, including missing value treatment, label encoding, and visual analytics such as class distribution plots, heatmaps, and count plots. These steps provided key insights into feature relevance, data imbalance, and potential anomalies, effectively guiding the modelling process. Comparative analysis revealed that while both Ridge and Cat Boost classifiers perform effectively, the Categorical Boosting (Cat Boost) classifier offers distinct advantages in handling complex categorical data, enhancing model interpretability, and improving training efficiency—making it a strong candidate for deployment in real-time industrial environments. The existing system, which employs a Ridge Classifier, demonstrated strong classification capabilities with a confusion matrix indicating 70,376 true positives, 188,119 true negatives, 4,636 false negatives, and 3,033 false positives. Although overall accuracy was high, the number of false negatives raised concerns due to the critical nature of undetected faults in industrial settings. To address this limitation, a proposed system was developed using the Cat Boost Classifier— a gradient boosting algorithm optimized for categorical feature handling and high-performance learning. The Cat Boost model achieved comparable results, with 70,936 true positives, 188,119 true negatives, and identical false negatives (4,636) and false positives (3,033) to the Ridge Classifier, indicating robust predictive powe…

A MACHINE LEARNING FRAMEWORK FOR REAL-TIME EV BATTERY RUL PREDICTION AND CHARGING OPTIMIZATION
type: item
description: Electric Vehicle (EV) adoption is rapidly accelerating, with global EV sales surpassing 14 million units in 2023, representing a 35% increase over the previous year. Studies indicate that battery performance and energy prediction account for nearly 45% of operational inefficiencies in EVs, while accurate charging strategies can reduce energy waste by up to 30%. Despite this potential, existing systems often rely on manual estimations or simplistic rule-based approaches for battery monitoring, which suffer from inconsistent results due to human error, lack of adaptability to real-time data, and inability to model non-linear battery degradation behaviours. To overcome these limitations, this study proposes a machine learning-based predictive framework using Bagging with Decision Tree Regressor (DTR) to estimate the Remaining Useful Life (RUL) of EV batteries. The methodology begins with collecting high-dimensional EV battery datasets, followed by robust preprocessing including feature scaling, outlier removal, and unique value analysis. Baseline models such as Support Vector Regressor (SVR) and Deep Neural Network (DNN) are first applied for comparative analysis. The proposed ensemble model leverages the Bagging technique, which trains multiple DTRs on different bootstrap samples and averages their predictions to reduce variance and improve accuracy. The system is further integrated into a Django-based web application that handles user interaction, model training, and real-time prediction using uploaded battery data. The result is a scalable, interpretable, and highly accurate prediction tool that can significantly optimize EV charging schedules and battery life cycle management

AI-POWERED IMAGE-BASED POULTRY DISEASE DETECTION SYSTEM
type: item
description: Poultry farming contributes significantly to global food security, yet disease outbreaks continue to pose a major threat to flock health and productivity. Traditional diagnostic methods rely on visual inspection by farm personnel and confirmatory laboratory tests—such as bacterial cultures or PCR assays—which are time-consuming, costly, and often available only in centralized facilities. Consequently, delays in diagnosis can allow pathogens to spread rapidly through large flocks, leading to high morbidity and mortality rates, economic losses, and increased use of antibiotics. The problem is that many farmers lack immediate access to veterinary services or laboratory infrastructure, particularly in rural regions. Early symptoms of diseases like coccidiosis, Newcastle disease, and avian influenza can be subtle and easily overlooked, making manual screening unreliable. Even when signs become overt, transporting samples to a lab and waiting days for results delays intervention, allowing infections to escalate. Existing image-based solutions often require high computational resources or lack flexible, user-friendly interfaces, limiting their adoption among small- to mediumscale producers. There is a clear need for a rapid, accurate, and accessible diagnostic tool that can operate directly on-farm without specialized equipment. Such a system should leverage recent advances in deep learning to automatically recognize disease patterns from digital images, minimizing dependence on expert veterinarians and centralized labs. By integrating pre-trained convolutional neural networks—such as InceptionV3, MobileNetV2, and VGG16—into a unified application, it becomes possible to harness robust feature extractors while maintaining lightweight computational requirements. Embedding this functionality within a Tkinter-based GUI ensures that users with minimal technical expertise can upload images, initiate analysis, and receive near–real-time diagnostic feedback. In summary, this resea…

INTELLIGENT FAULT DETECTION IN ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS USING AI FOR INDUSTRY 4.0
type: item
description: Electrical faults like short circuits, open circuits, fouling, and scaling pose significant challenges in India’s power distribution systems, leading to frequent outages and safety hazards. With over 1.4 billion people depending on electricity, power interruptions cost billions annually. The objective is to develop an efficient machine learning-based fault detection system to accurately classify electrical faults Traditional manual fault detection relies on periodic physical inspections by technicians who visually or electrically check equipment for faults. This process includes using handheld meters, visual observation, and trial-and-error testing to identify fault types and locations. It is labor-intensive, slow, and often inaccurate due to human error and environmental conditions, leading to delayed repairs and increased system downtime. The traditional fault detection system suffers from slow response times and limited accuracy due to reliance on manual inspections. Human errors, lack of real-time monitoring, and insufficient data analysis capability cause frequent misdiagnosis of faults, resulting in prolonged outages and higher maintenance costs. The motivation behind this research is to overcome the traditional system’s slow, error-prone fault detection by leveraging machine learning. The proposed system uses a Support Vector Classifier (SVC) to automatically classify electrical faults into categories: 'Short_circuit', 'Nominal', 'Open_circuit', 'Fouling', and 'Scaling'. The machine learning model processes sensor data and identifies subtle patterns distinguishing each fault type with high accuracy. This automation accelerates fault detection and minimizes human error, enabling prompt maintenance actions. Additionally, SVC’s kernel functions allow it to handle complex nonlinear relationships in the data, improving diagnostic reliability. By continuously learning from new data, the system adapts to evolving conditions, offering a scalable and robust solution t…

AI-ENABLED MECHANICAL HEALTH MONITORING AND FAILURE FORECASTING SYSTEM
type: item
description: Failure prediction in mechanical components is essential to enhance reliability, safety, and operational efficiency in industrial systems. Traditionally, maintenance strategies have relied on fixed schedules and rule-based systems, which often lead to unexpected breakdowns or unnecessary part replacements. These conventional methods are limited by their inability to adapt to dynamic operating conditions, process real-time data effectively, or detect early signs of failure. As industrial systems grow in complexity and scale, the need for more accurate and intelligent failure prediction methods has become critical. This project addresses the shortcomings of traditional systems by adopting machine learning-based approaches that can learn from historical and real-time data to identify hidden patterns and predict failures before they occur. The significance of this work lies in its potential to enable proactive maintenance strategies, reduce unplanned downtime, extend the lifespan of components, and optimize overall maintenance efforts. By transitioning from reactive to predictive maintenance, industries can achieve greater cost savings and operational resilience. This study aims to explore the application of machine learning techniques in developing efficient, adaptive models for failure prediction, ultimately contributing to smarter and more dependable industrial systems

OPTIMIZING MOVIE RECOMMENDATIONS: A WEIGHTED CLASSIFICATION AND COLLABORATIVE FILTERING APPROACH
type: item
description: The evolution of movie recommendation systems began in the late 1990s alongside the emergence of ecommerce platforms and online streaming services. Early systems primarily utilized collaborative filtering, which based recommendations on user behavior and shared preferences. Traditionally, movie suggestions came from friends, family, critics, or television programs, relying heavily on word-of-mouth, printed reviews, and broadcasted opinions. However, this conventional method lacked personalization and scalability, often resulting in recommendations that did not align with individual preferences. The shift toward machine learning-based recommendation systems was driven by the need for more accurate, scalable, and personalized solutions that could adapt to diverse user tastes. These modern systems analyze vast volumes of data to detect hidden patterns and provide tailored viewing suggestions. The proposed recommendation system incorporates collaborative filtering, content-based filtering, and hybrid models to enhance accuracy and user satisfaction. Collaborative filtering identifies similar user behavior to suggest relevant content, while content-based filtering leverages movie attributes such as genre, cast, and director to match user interests. Hybrid approaches combine both strategies to address limitations and improve overall performance. The system continuously collects and analyzes user interactions, including viewing history, ratings, and search activity, while applying advanced machine learning algorithms such as matrix factorization and deep learning to uncover latent features and evolving patterns. Additionally, it can integrate supplementary data sources like social media engagement and demographic information to further refine recommendations. This comprehensive approach delivers a seamless and personalized user experience, significantly boosting engagement and satisfaction on platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime.

FAULT-PROOFING THE GRID: MACHINE LEARNING-BASED ENSEMBLE MODELS FOR TRANSMISSION LINE FAILURE DETECTION
type: item
description: Transmission line failures pose significant risks to the reliability and safety of electrical power systems, often resulting in costly outages and prolonged system downtimes. Early and accurate detection of potential failures is crucial to ensure uninterrupted power delivery and facilitate efficient maintenance planning. In this project, we present a robust classification framework for transmission line failure prediction using ensemble machine learning techniques, with a focus on enhancing predictive accuracy and model robustness. The study begins with comprehensive Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) to uncover underlying patterns and relationships within the dataset. Using statistical summaries, correlation analysis, and visualization techniques, key features influencing transmission line failures are identified. This analysis is instrumental in refining the dataset and improving model performance. A Decision Tree Classifier is initially employed as the baseline model due to its simplicity and interpretability. However, it demonstrates limitations such as overfitting and poor generalization on complex or noisy data. To address these challenges, we propose a Random Forest Classifier as the improved model. By aggregating predictions from multiple decision trees, the Random Forest significantly enhances classification accuracy, mitigates overfitting, and better captures feature interactions. Experimental results show that the Random Forest Classifier consistently outperforms the Decision Tree across all major performance metrics, confirming its effectiveness in accurately predicting transmission line failures. This project underscores the value of ensemble methods in critical infrastructure applications and demonstrates how data-driven approaches can be leveraged to build intelligent fault detection systems in the power sector.

SMART ENERGY OPTIMIZATION IN URBAN BUILDINGS USING AI AND IOT SENSOR ANALYTICS
type: item
description: Smart homes, equipped with intelligent sensors and automation systems, offer substantial opportunities to optimize energy usage while enhancing occupant comfort. This study explores the influence of external weather conditions on energy consumption patterns in smart residential environments. The dataset spans 4.5 months and includes temperature and humidity readings captured via ZigBee-based wireless sensor networks, alongside energy usage data collected through m-bus energy meters. Supplementing this with meteorological data from Chievres Airport in Belgium allows for a comprehensive analysis of the correlation between environmental factors and household energy behavior. Traditional energy management systems typically operate on static schedules and historical usage patterns, making them ill-equipped to adapt to real-time weather fluctuations, which often results in suboptimal energy efficiency and increased operational costs. To address these challenges, this research proposes a data-driven approach using regression analysis to model the dependency between weather parameters and energy consumption. By leveraging predictive modeling, the system aims to forecast energy demand in response to changing weather conditions, enabling dynamic control of HVAC and other high-consumption appliances. This adaptive strategy enhances energy efficiency, reduces waste, and supports sustainable urban living. The findings from this study contribute to the advancement of intelligent energy management in smart homes, offering scalable solutions for future eco-friendly residential infrastructure.

DETECTING DEEPFAKES ON SOCIAL MEDIA USING DEEP LEARNING AND FASTTEXT-BASED TWEET ANALYSIS
type: item
description: Deepfake technology, which utilizes artificial intelligence to create manipulated media, poses a significant threat to the integrity of information on social media platforms. In India, the prevalence of deepfake content has surged, particularly within political and entertainment domains, where AIgenerated videos and fake news have gone viral, leading to widespread misinformation. This research aims to develop a robust AI-based model capable of accurately detecting deepfake content on social media, with a specific focus on identifying machine-generated tweets using FastText embeddings. Traditional detection methods relied on human moderation, fact-checking agencies, and manual filtering of posts using predefined rules and keyword matching. However, these approaches are timeconsuming, error-prone, and lack the scalability needed to manage the vast volume of online content in real time. Consequently, harmful and misleading information can spread rapidly before detection or removal. Given the growing impact of social media in shaping public opinion, this study is motivated by the need to combat misinformation and uphold the credibility of online discourse. Deep learning models offer a promising solution by automating the detection of deepfakes. In this approach, FastText embeddings are used to convert tweets into meaningful word vectors, which are then classified by deep learning models to determine whether they are human- or AI-generated. This method ensures real-time detection, enhanced accuracy, and greater scalability compared to conventional techniques.
