the technology to automate the recommendations for big data analytic models that define data characteristics and problems).

Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic becomes increased in a drastic way, with the availability of a limited quantity of rapid testing kits. Therefore, automated COVID-19 diagnosis models are essential to identify the existence of disease from radiological images. Earlier studies have focused on the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques using X-ray images on COVID-19 diagnosis. This paper aims to develop a Deep Learning Based MultiModal Fusion technique called DLMMF for COVID-19 diagnosis and classification from Computed Tomography (CT) images. The proposed DLMMF model operates on three main processes namely Weiner Filtering (WF) based pre-processing, feature extraction and classification. The proposed model incorporates the fusion of deep features using VGG16 and Inception v4 models. Finally, Gaussian Naïve Bayes (GNB) based classifier is applied for identifying and classifying the test CT images into distinct class labels. The experimental validation of the DLMMF model takes place using open-source COVID-CT dataset, which comprises a total of 760 CT images. The experimental outcome defined the superior performance with the maximum sensitivity of 96.53%, specificity of 95.81%, accuracy of 96.81% and F-score of 96.73%.

Steganalysis is the aptitude of identifying stegogrammes that contain a secret message. To test the steganalysis algorithm touching the unusual Stego images to ensure its robustness. This paper proposes an active steganalysis method uses irregularity in the stego image or the specialized algorithm is used to detect the existence of stego image. DCT coefficients are intended for each block. Approximate entropy estimation is used to normalize the randomness in a time series. Lempel-Ziv complexity characterizes the degree of order or disorder and development of spatiotemporal patterns. Moreover, adapted Lempel-Ziv complexity added to decide the block size. Second order statistics estimates the codebook, document to store the message. The proposed steganalysis deduces the properties of the hidden message in high rate embedding stego image. The evaluation scheme has a better performance of evaluating the steganalysis algorithm and can provide a quantitative evaluation criterion for steganalysis algorithm.

In recent times, the COVID-19 epidemic turn out to be increased in an extreme manner, by the accessibility of an inadequate amount of rapid testing kits. Consequently, it is essential to develop the automated techniques for Covid-19 detection to recognize the existence of disease from the radiological images. The most ordinary symptoms of COVID-19 are sore throat, fever, and dry cough. Symptoms are able to progress to a rigorous type of pneumonia with serious impediment. As medical imaging is not recommended currently in Canada for crucial COVID-19 diagnosis, systems of computer-aided diagnosis might aid in early COVID-19 abnormalities detection and help out to observe the disease progression, reduce mortality rates potentially. In this approach, a deep learning based design for feature extraction and classification is employed for automatic COVID-19 diagnosis from computed tomography (CT) images. The proposed model operates on three main processes based pre-processing, feature extraction, and classification. The proposed design incorporates the fusion of deep features using GoogLe Net models. Finally, Multi-scale Recurrent Neural network (RNN) based classifier is applied for identifying and classifying the test CT images into distinct class labels. The experimental validation of the proposed model takes place using open-source COVID-CT dataset, which comprises a total of 760 CT images. The experimental outcome defined the superior performance with the maximum sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy.
