    Normal life can be ensured for schizophrenic patients if diagnosed early. Electroencephalogram (EEG) carries information about the brain network connectivity which can be used to detect brain anomalies that are indicative of schizophrenia. Since deep learning is capable of automatically extracting the significant features and make classifications, the authors proposed a deep learning based model using RNN-LSTM to analyze the EEG signal data to diagnose schizophrenia. The proposed model used three dense layers on top of a 100 dimensional LSTM. EEG signal data of 45 schizophrenic patients and 39 healthy subjects were used in the study. Dimensionality reduction algorithm was used to obtain an optimal feature set and the classifier was run with both sets of data. An accuracy of 98% and 93.67% were obtained with the complete feature set and the reduced feature set respectively. The robustness of the model was evaluated using model performance measure and combined performance measure. Outcomes were compared with the outcome obtained with traditional machine learning classifiers such as Random Forest, SVM, FURIA, and AdaBoost, and the proposed model was found to perform better with the complete dataset. When compared with the result of the researchers who worked with the same set of data using either CNN or RNN, the proposed model's accuracy was either better or comparable to theirs.

    The fate of humankind and all other life forms on earth is threatened by a foe, known as climate change. All parts of the world are affected directly or indirectly by this phenomenon. The rivers are drying up in some places and in other places, it is flooding. The global temperature is rising every year and the heat waves are taking many souls. The cloud of "extinction" is upon the majority of flora and fauna; even humans are prone to various fatal and life-shortening diseases from pollution. This is all caused by us. The so-called "development" by deforestation, releasing toxic chemicals into air and water, burning of fossil fuels in the name of industrialisation, and many others have made an irreversible cut in the heart of the environment. However, it is not too late; all of this could be healed back with the help of technology and our efforts together. As per the international climate reports, the average global temperature has increased by a little more than 1 °C since 1880s. The research is primarily focused on the use of machine learning and its algorithm to train a model that predicts the ice meltdown of a glacier, given the features using the Multivariate Linear Regression. The research strongly encourages the use of features by manipulating them to determine the feature with a major impact on the cause. The burning of coal and fossil fuels is the main source of pollution as per the study. The research focuses on the challenges to gather data that would be faced by the researchers and the requirement of the system for the development of the model. The study is aimed to spread awareness in society about the destruction we have caused and urges everyone to come forward and save the planet.

    BACKGROUND: Within the UK, COVID-19 has contributed towards over 103,000 deaths. Although multiple risk factors for COVID-19 have been identified, using this data to improve clinical care has proven challenging. The main aim of this study is to develop a reliable, multivariable predictive model for COVID-19 in-patient outcomes, thus enabling risk-stratification and earlier clinical decision-making.

    METHODS: Anonymised data consisting of 44 independent predictor variables from 355 adults diagnosed with COVID-19, at a UK hospital, was manually extracted from electronic patient records for retrospective, case-control analysis. Primary outcomes included inpatient mortality, required ventilatory support, and duration of inpatient treatment. Pulmonary embolism sequala was the only secondary outcome. After balancing data, key variables were feature selected for each outcome using random forests. Predictive models were then learned and constructed using Bayesian networks.

    RESULTS: The proposed probabilistic models were able to predict, using feature selected risk factors, the probability of the mentioned outcomes. Overall, our findings demonstrate reliable, multivariable, quantitative predictive models for four outcomes, which utilise readily available clinical information for COVID-19 adult inpatients. Further research is required to externally validate our models and demonstrate their utility as risk stratification and clinical decision-making tools.
