A HYBRID BIDIRECTIONAL LSTM WITH ENHANCED VISION TRANSFORMER APPROACH FOR GLAUCOMA DISEASE PREDICTION

Glaucoma, a leading cause of permanent vision loss globally, can be effectively managed with early detection, making timely diagnosis crucial for preserving sight. The paper proposed a hybrid model combining Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) and Enhanced Vision Transformer (EViT) for automated glaucoma detection in fundus images. The BiLSTM captures temporal dependencies, while the EViT…

Predicting Glaucoma With Hyperparameter-Tuned Convolutional Neural Networks As Clinical Diagnostics

Glaucoma is responsible for a significant percentage of irreversible blindness worldwide and is often asymptomatic until very late in its course. As with many diseases and conditions, the earlier glaucoma is detected, the less likely the patient will have permanent optic nerve damage. Traditional clinical screening techniques, sadly, suffer from the constraints of subjectivity, access,…

STRATEGIES OF RESOURCES UTILIZATION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH EFFICIENT ENERGY MANAGEMENT

The increasing demand for energy, coupled with growing concerns about environmental degradation and climate change, has brought the issue of sustainable energy to the forefront of global discourse. Traditional energy sources, primarily fossil fuels, have long been the backbone of industrial and economic development. However, their extensive use has led to significant environmental consequences, including…

A Role of Financial Inclusion and Women Empowerment

Financial Inclusion is more than access to banking—it’s the foundation for economic freedom, mainly for women. Across many regions, women continue to face significant obstacles in accessing formal financial services. Deep-rooted cultural norms often discourage women from managing their own finances independently, while the absence of legal documentation—such as identification cards or birth certificates—limits their…
