SYNTHETIC MEDICAL DATA GENERATIONUSING GAN MODEL
Abstract: The healthcare industry has witnessed growing interest in synthetic data generation, driven by increasing demands for large and diverse datasets. Real medical data is often inaccessible due to stringent privacy laws, data scarcity, and ethical considerations. Sophisticated models, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), have emerged as powerful tools to generate synthetic data that closely resembles real-world data. This approach is particularly effective for addressing the challenges of researching rare …

INTERVENTIONS OF LEGISLATION AND ENGINEERING REGULATORY BODIES AS A TOOL FOR ADDRESSING WATER RELATED ISSUES IN NIGERIA
Abstract: ABSTRACT Nigeria faces persistent water-related challenges which include inadequate urban water supply, fragmented governance, groundwater pollution, unsustainable abstraction, poor infrastructure operation and maintenance, and weak enforcement of standards. This paper examines how legislation and engineering regulatory bodies when properly designed and applied can be deployed as practical tools to tackle these problems. Using a multi-method approach-a policy analysis, case studies, and interviews with stakeholders-these are the main gaps in enforcement …

Blockchain as the Bard of Securities Settlement: A New Way to Think About Trust, Speed, and Openness
Abstract: One of the most promising uses of blockchain technology in financial markets is to modernize securities settlement procedures. Centralized intermediaries, like clearing houses and custodians often cause delays, operational inefficiencies, and counterparty risk in traditional settlement systems. Blockchain, or distributed ledger technology (DLT), can completely change this infrastructure by making real-time, peer-to-peer settlement possible, increasing transparency, and making recordkeeping unchangeable. This article looks at the legal, regulatory, and operational effects …

Thermoelectric Energy Recovery from Exhaust Systems: Design, Simulation, and Performance Analysis of a Waste-Heat Recovery Prototype
Abstract: In today’s context, energy plays a vital role in environmental development. Unfortunately, most energy strategies that yield immediate benefits often contribute to long-term environmental degradation. The law of conservation of energy states that “Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only change from one form to another.” This idea emphasizes the fact that no technological improvement can continue eternally without having negative effects. Every living thing on the world …

Emission Control Technologies for Reduction of NOx and Particulate Matter from Automotive Diesel Engines
Abstract: In consequence of their efficiency and torque, diesel engines have long been valued, especially for heavy-duty applications. But worries about their emissions—especially those of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter (PM)—have prompted stricter laws all around the world. Modern emission control technologies for lowering NOx and PM emissions from automotive diesel engines are reviewed in this paper. There is discussion of several methods, such as diesel particulate filters (DPF), selective …
