This paper proposes a blend of three techniques to select COVID-19 testing centers. The objective of the paper is to identify a suitable location to establish new COVID-19 testing centers. Establishment of the testing center in the needy locations will be beneficial to both public and government officials. Selection of the wrong location may lead to lose both health and wealth. In this paper, location selection is modelled as a decision-making problem. The paper uses fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (AHP) technique to generate the criteria weights, monkey search algorithm to optimize the weights, and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method to rank the different locations. To illustrate the applicability of the proposed technique, a state named Tamil Nadu, located in India, is taken for a case study. The proposed structured algorithmic steps were applied for the input data obtained from the government of India website, and the results were analyzed and validated using the government of India website. The ranks assigned by the proposed technique to different locations are in aligning with the number of patients and death rate.

Heart disease is among the leading causes of mortality globally. Predicting cardiovascular disease is a major difficulty in clinical data analysis. AI has been demonstrated to be powerful in deciding and anticipating an enormous measure of information created by the health domain. We provide a unique method for finding essential traits employing machine learning approaches in this paper, which enhances the effectiveness of identifying heart diseases. Decision tree (DT), support vector machine (SVM), artificial neural network (ANN), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) are the classification techniques used to create the proposed system. Ensemble stacking integrates the four classification models to create a single best-fit predictive model using logistic regression. Many explorations have been directed at the identification of cardiac infection; however, the exactness of the outcomes is poor. Accordingly, to further enhance the efficiency, Moth-Flame Optimization (MFO) algorithm is proposed. The feature selection strategies are used to improve the classification accuracy while shortening the execution time of the classification system. Medical data are used to assess the probability of heart disease based on BP, age, gender, chest ache, cholesterol, blood sugar, and other variables. Results revealed that the proposed system excelled other existing models, obtaining 99% accuracy in the Cleveland dataset.

In recent times, nutrition recommendation system has gained increasing attention due to their need for healthy living. Current studies on the food domain deal with a recommendation system that focuses on independent users and their health problems but lack nutritional advice to individual users. The proposed system is developed to suggest nutritional food to people based on age and gender predicted from their face image. The designed methodology preprocesses the input image before performing feature extraction using the deep convolution neural network (DCNN) strategy. This network extracts D -dimensional characteristics from the source face image, followed by the feature selection strategy. The face’s distinctive and identifiable traits are chosen utilizing a hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) technique. Support vector machine (SVM) is used to classify a person’s age and gender. The nutrition recommendation system relies on the age and gender classes. The proposed system is evaluated using classification rate, precision, and recall using Adience dataset and UTKface dataset, and real-world images exhibit excellent performance by achieving good prediction results and computation time.
