Abstract: So in India, with technology's widespread, the agricultural industry of India has been in the process of transformation due to rapid introduction of new-age technology in the agricultural ecosystem like digital platforms, automation and precision farming tooling, artificial intelligence and decision-making analytics. Many private agribusiness firms and agri-tech startups are already using this new technology to boost productivity, lower costs and deliver services to farmers. But the challenges facing those workers are new as well, and it’s hard to tell you who the employees working in such organizations will face. Technology-dependent firms employ agricultural graduates who need to learn new tools instantly, upgrade skills constantly and work under high pressures to perform. The current study provides a reflection on the current human resource problems experienced by graduates of agriculture working at technology-intensive agribusiness companies, with especial attention to their motivation for work and job satisfaction. Data were obtained from 21 agrarian graduates who worked at private agribusiness companies and agri-tech firms using a structured questionnaire as a primary source. Key components addressed in the study include technological applicability, training support, support from the organization itself, perceived satisfaction with their salary, career progress prospects and work social life balance. The results suggest that the majority of the respondents are willing and comfortable with new technologies and have a moderate to high level of motivation. But there are issues of fairness, career advancement, and work pressure. There were positive associations of good training and supportive management with satisfaction level. The research suggests that companies cannot simply promote technological success, unless they properly address the issues with human resource. Which indicates that agribusinesses need to pay attention to worker development, the supportive work environment for employees and fair salaries to retain the motivated workforce in a tech-oriented agricultural environment.

Abstract: The communication between hearing impaired individuals and the general public still remains a challenge due to the lack of real time sign language interpretation systems. This paper presents a real time webcam-based sign language translation system using computer vision to facilitate efficient communication. The proposed system analyses live video feed from a standard webcam using a vision-based pipeline for hand gesture recognition. The proposed system employs hand landmarks to analyse the video feed using a strong computer vision framework, which assists in extracting precise spatial information from sign language gestures. The extracted information is then analysed and categorized to identify corresponding sign language symbols, which are then translated into readable text output in real time. The end of this research work reveals that the proposed approach is a cost effective and efficient solution for sign language translation. The solution will focus on processing, latency, and usability, making it useful for real world assistive communication problems. The experimental analysis proves the accuracy of the recognition in controlled lighting conditions and various orientations of the hand. The solution will prove that the proposed solution is cost effective and scalable for sign language translation. This research work validates the application of computer vision based assistive technology to enhance communication accessibility and inclusivity. The proposed system can be further extended to support the translation of a broader vocabulary set, dynamic signs, and multiple languages.

Abstract: PLANEXA is a hierarchical reasoning system that aims to assist in medical diagnostic decision-making in a complex clinical environment. PLANEXA structures medical knowledge into multiple levels of reasoning, from basic patient information such as symptoms, vital signs, lab results, and medical history. It progresses to higher-level tasks such as forming diagnostic hypotheses and assisting in clinical decision-making. PLANEXA employs rule-based reasoning, probabilistic inference, and knowledge-driven models to effectively address diagnostic uncertainty and interdependencies among clinical variables. The system's design enables it to decompose complex diagnostic problems into smaller, more tractable sub-problems. This strategy enables efficient reasoning, hypothesis refinement, and learning from new patient data as it becomes available. PLANEXA is also concerned with explainability, as it develops well-defined diagnostic pathways that help clinicians understand why particular diagnoses and recommendations are made. This helps to establish trust, usability, and its integration into the clinical workflow. Results from experimental evaluations conducted on representative clinical cases and standard benchmark problems demonstrate that PLANEXA enhances diagnostic performance, reduces reasoning complexity, and improves decision consistency relative to traditional flat or single-layer models. PLANEXA has immense potential for scalability across multiple domains of medicine and evolving with changes in clinical knowledge. PLANEXA marks an important advancement toward smart, understandable, and dependable AI-driven medical diagnostic support systems that aim to reduce diagnostic errors and improve patient outcomes.

Abstract: The fast development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has changed digital infrastructures into connected, smart, and data-focused systems. Today’s ICT environments produce large amounts of different data from Internet of Things (IoT) devices, business systems, cloud platforms, mobile networks, and spread-out communication setups. While new technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Big Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, and improved Cybersecurity methods have shown significant progress in automation and scalability, using them separately often leads to fragmented structures, issues with compatibility, and security risks. This research proposes a detailed multi-layer framework for smart and secure Information and Communication Systems using new ICT technologies. The framework combines real-time data collection, distributed data handling, AI-driven predictive analytics, encryption-based communication methods, anomaly detection systems, and hybrid cloud orchestration into one architecture. The proposed model focuses on modularity, scalability, interoperability, and built-in security features to ensure resilience against changing cyber threats. Experimental validation using simulated distributed ICT datasets shows notable performance improvements. These include a 32% reduction in latency, a 34% boost in throughput, and a 96.4% accuracy rate in detecting anomalies. The framework can be applied in smart cities, healthcare systems, enterprise automation, and intelligent transportation systems. This study offers a clear plan for future ICT architectures that support sustainable and secure digital change.

Abstract: Background: The South West Khasi Hills District of Meghalaya, India, is among the most disaster-prone regions in Northeast India, regularly exposed to earthquakes, landslides, flash floods, and cyclonic winds due to its complex geomorphology and geological settings. Despite heightened vulnerability, systematic Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) education within formal school settings remains critically underdeveloped. Objectives: This study examines the effectiveness of school-based DRR familiarization programs in enhancing disaster preparedness knowledge among secondary school students in the district. Methods: Using a quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test research design, data were collected from 376 students across eight purposively selected schools. Structured questionnaires, direct observation, and focus group discussions constituted primary data collection instruments. Paired sample t-tests, one-way ANOVA, chi-square tests, and multiple linear regression analyses were employed. Results: Post-program DRR knowledge scores increased significantly (pre-mean = 2.12; post-mean = 3.76; t = 22.47, p < 0.001). The familiarization program demonstrated statistically significant improvements across all six knowledge domains, including hazard identification, evacuation procedures, first aid basics, early warning systems, risk mapping, and community response. Grade level (F = 19.84, p < 0.001) and school type were significant moderating variables. Multiple regression revealed that pre-program knowledge (β = 0.38), grade level (β = 0.22), and participation duration (β = 0.19) were the strongest predictors of post-program learning outcomes (R² = 0.579). Conclusion: Structured DRR familiarization programs embedded within the school curriculum are highly effective in building resilience competencies among students in disaster-prone hill districts. Policy recommendations include institutionalizing DRR modules within the formal curriculum, training teachers as DRR facilitators, and establishing school disaster management committees.

Abstract: Document forgery has become a serious concern in digital services such as banking, education, recruitment, and government verification systems. Manual verification is time-consuming, error-prone, and not scalable. This research proposes an AI-based document verification system that combines Optical Character Recognition (OCR), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), and metadata analysis to verify the authenticity of digital documents. The system performs image forgery detection, text consistency verification, and metadata anomaly checking to generate a final authenticity score. By integrating visual, textual, and hidden metadata features, the proposed approach improves reliability, reduces false verification, and supports automated decision-making. Experimental analysis demonstrates that the hybrid model outperforms traditional single-technique verification methods and is suitable for real-world document authentication systems.

Abstract: The concept of globalization has greatly widened the trade internationally and made more contacts between the firms that work in different linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Multinational companies often deal with partners, employees as well as stakeholders with varying language backgrounds as a result of which communication has become difficult in global businesses. The communication barriers have frequently been the cause of misunderstanding in a negotiation, postponement of decision making and lack of efficiency in organizational coordination. These issues have raised transaction costs and made international trade not very efficient. Hence, the study of the contribution of business communication in the management of linguistic diversity has gained more significance to multinational corporations. This paper has attempted to discuss the role of communication barriers in transaction costs in multinational companies and explore the role of well-organized communications strategies in enhancing coordination in the international markets. The study has taken the qualitative research method, based on secondary data gathered through scholarly research and international business literature concerning communication management and international trade. The results have revealed that linguistic diversity plays a key role in determining the effectiveness of communication in multinational organizations. Those firms who incorporate formal communication networks, uniform organizational language policy and cross cultural communications training have shown better coordination and less operational inefficiency. The research has thus indicated the need to have strategic communication management in improving efficiency and competitiveness in global trade.
