The world is consuming large amounts of energy in various forms like electric energy and mechanical energy. Since the electrical energy is an important factor for the development of the world, many researchers tried to generate electricity from renewable energy sources collected by sensors in order to overcome the shortage of electrical energy for household appliances and industrial areas. In this paper, we develop Internet-of-Things (IoT) based system to generate electrical energy from multiple sensors for household appliances and industrial areas. Different sensors namely piezoelectric sensor, body heat to electric converter and solar panel are utilized and connected to the power storage circuit for generation of electrical energy. Two different Artificial Intelligence (AI) models such as Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Adaptive Network based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) are utilized for the total power generated from renewable energy resources. Validation is done through the statistical parameters such as Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) and R2 coefficient of correlation. Result outcome from the models shows that ANN performance is better than ANFIS. INDEX TERMS Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, piezoelectricity, sensors, energy types, human body heat dissipation, optimization of renewal and non-renewal energies.

Corona viruses are a large family of viruses that are not only restricted to causing illness in humans but also affect animals such as camels, cattle, cats, and bats, thus affecting a large group of living species. The outbreak of Corona virus in late December 2019 (also known as COVID-19) raised major concerns when the outbreak started getting tremendous. While the first case was discovered in Wuhan, China, it did not take long for the disease to travel across the globe and infect every continent (except Antarctica), killing thousands of people. Since it has become a global concern, different countries have been working toward the treatment and generation of vaccine, leading to different speculations. While some argue that the vaccine may only be a few weeks away, others believe that it may take some time to create the vaccine. Given the increasing number of deaths, the COVID-19 has caused havoc worldwide and is a matter of serious concern. Thus, there is a need to study how the disease has been propagating across continents by numbers as well as by regions. This study incorporates a detailed description of how the COVID-19 outbreak started in China and managed to spread across the globe rapidly. We take into account the COVID-19 outbreak cases (confirmed, recovered, death) in order to make some observations regarding the pandemic. Given the detailed description of the outbreak, this study would be beneficial to certain industries that may be affected by the outbreak in order to take timely precautionary measures in the future. Further, the study lists some industries that have witnessed the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on a global scale.

The framework of the T-spherical fuzzy set is a recent development in fuzzy set theory that can describe imprecise events using four types of membership grades with no restrictions. The purpose of this manuscript is to point out the limitations of the existing intuitionistic fuzzy Einstein averaging and geometric operators and to develop some improved Einstein aggregation operators. To do so, first some new operational laws were developed for T-spherical fuzzy sets and their properties were investigated. Based on these new operations, two types of Einstein aggregation operators are proposed namely the Einstein interactive averaging aggregation operators and the Einstein interactive geometric aggregation operators. The properties of the newly developed aggregation operators were then investigated and verified. The T-spherical fuzzy aggregation operators were then applied to a multi-attribute decision making (MADM) problem related to the degree of pollution of five major cities in China. Actual datasets sourced from the UCI Machine Learning Repository were used for this purpose. A detailed study was done to determine the most and least polluted city for different perceptions for different situations. Several compliance tests were then outlined to test and verify the accuracy of the results obtained via our proposed decision-making algorithm. It was proved that the results obtained via our proposed decision-making algorithm was fully compliant with all the tests that were outlined, thereby confirming the accuracy of the results obtained via our proposed method.
