The classification technology of hyperspectral images (HSI) consists of many contiguous spectral bands that are often utilized for a various Earth observation activities, such as surveillance, detection, and identification. The incorporation of both spectral and spatial characteristics is necessary for improved classification accuracy. In the classification of hyperspectral images, deep learning has gained significant traction. This research analyzes how to accurately classify new HSI from limited samples with labels. A novel deep-learning-based categorization based on feature extraction and classification is designed for this purpose. Initial extraction of spectral and spatial information is followed by spectral and spatial information integration to generate fused features. The classification challenge is completed using a compressed synergic deep convolution neural network with Aquila optimization (CSDCNN-AO) model constructed by utilising a novel optimization technique known as the Aquila Optimizer (AO). The HSI, the Kennedy Space Center (KSC), the Indian Pines (IP) dataset, the Houston U (HU) dataset, and the Salinas Scene (SS) dataset are used for experiment assessment. The sequence testing on these four HSI-classified datasets demonstrate that our innovative framework outperforms the conventional technique on common evaluation measures such as average accuracy (AA), overall accuracy (OA), and Kappa coefficient (k). In addition, it significantly reduces training time and computational cost, resulting in enhanced training stability, maximum performance, and remarkable training accuracy.

Abstract-In this work, we study the correlation between interdisciplinarity of papers within physical sciences and their citations by using meta data of articles published in American Physical Society's Physical Review journals between 1985 to 2012. We use the Weitzman diversity index to measure the diversity of papers and authors, exploiting the hierarchical structure of PACS (Physics and Astronomy Classification Scheme) codes. We find that the fraction of authors with high diversity is increasing with time, where as the fraction of least diversity are decreasing, and moderate diversity authors have higher tendency to switch over to other diversity groups. The diversity index of papers is correlated with the citations they received in a given time period from their publication year. Papers with lower and higher end of diversity index receive lesser citations than the moderate diversity papers.

Identifying vital nodes is important in disease research, spreading rumors, viral marketing, and drug development. The vital nodes in any network are used to spread information as widely as possible. Centrality measures such as Degree centrality (D), Betweenness centrality (B), Closeness centrality (C), Katz (K), Cluster coefficient (CC), PR (PageRank), LGC (Local and Global Centrality), ISC (Isolating Centrality) centrality measures can be used to effectively quantify vital nodes. The majority of these centrality measures are defined in the literature and are based on a network's local and/or global structure. However, these measures are time-consuming and inefficient for large-scale networks. Also, these measures cannot study the effect of removal of vital nodes in resource-constrained networks. To address these concerns, we propose the six new centrality measures namely GRACC, LRACC, GRAD, LRAD, GRAK, and LRAK. We develop these measures based on the relative change of the clustering coefficient, degree, and Katz centralities after the removal of a vertex. Next, we compare the proposed centrality measures with D, B, C, CC, K, PR, LGC, and ISC to demonstrate their efficiency and time complexity. We utilize the SIR (Susceptible-Infected-Recovered) and IC (Independent Cascade) models to study the maximum information spread of proposed measures over conventional ones. We perform extensive simulations on large-scale real-world data sets and prove that local centrality measures perform better in some networks than global measures in terms of time complexity and information spread. Further, we also observe the number of cliques drastically improves the efficiency of global centrality measures.INDEX TERMS Complex networks, influential nodes, local centrality, relative change in centrality.
