A clear, statistically sound, yet easily understandable breast cancer diagnosis is a difficult issue in all healthcare systems, because early stages of breast cancer are critical in therapy success and long-term survivability. This machine-learning-based breast cancer classifier, in a statistically justified, rigorously experimentally validated way, classifies a set of 569 breast cancer cases with 9 cytological features for breast cancer diagnosis. The classifier uses a rigorous set of data cleanup measures, including missing-value substitution, correlation-based feature reduction, and projection into principal component space, to achieve high data quality, reduce redundancy, and enhance feature usefulness. Five supervised classifiers, in a widely accepted train-test model using an 80:20 random sample split and 5-fold cross-validation, are fitted and evaluated using Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-score, and Area under the ROC curve. In these tests, the Random Forest classifier got the best result, with 95.84% Accuracy, 95.31% Precision, 95.12% Recall, 95.21% F1-score and 0.982 area under the ROC curve; in a statistically sound consistency test using cross-validation, its mean accuracy reached 95.96% with a small standard deviation of 0.43. To provide a clear, interpretable indication of which features truly matter, we performed a feature-importance analysis on the best classifier, the Random Forest model. Results show that the expression levels of Bland Chromatin, Single Epithelial Cell Size, Normal Nucleoli, Uniformity of Cell Shape, Uniformity of Cell Size and Bare Nuclei are closely related to breast cancer diagnosis; this is almost the same as the clinical diagnosis findings, and very naturally suggests that abnormalities of cellular morphology and nuclei are major symptoms of breast cancer. In comparison, prior research may neglect validation and efficiency comparisons or focus only on the classifier's accuracy. Our method combines multiple levels of assessment (statistical data-by-data validation, feature importance, cross-validation, and comparison of different classifiers using ensemble learning) into a single evaluation system. This combined approach not only enhances predictive capability but also makes the entire setup more explicitly interpretable from a clinical perspective, thereby making it more suitable for health care decision support. Given the strong classification performance, interpretability, and validation suggested above, the model would help physicians detect breast cancer very early, reducing the risk of misdiagnosis.

Character Recognition is one of the important tasks in Pattern Recognition. The complexity of the character recognition problem depends on the character set to be recognized. Neural Network is one of the most widely used and popular techniques for character recognition problem. This paper discusses the classification and recognition of printed Hindi Vowels and Consonants using Artificial Neural Networks. The vowels and consonants in Hindi characters can be divided in to sub groups based on certain significant characteristics. For each group, a separate network is designed and trained to recognize the characters which belong to that group. When a test character is given, appropriate neural network is invoked to recognize the character in that group, based on the features in that character. The accuracy of the network is analyzed by giving various test patterns to the system.

Satellite based communication is a way to transmit digital information from one geographic location to another by utilizing satellites. Satellite as communication medium to transfer data vulnerable various types of information security threat, and require a novel methodology for safe and secure data transmission over satellite. In this paper a methodology is proposed to ensure safe and secured transferred of data or information for satellite based communication using symmetric and asymmetric Cryptographic techniques.
