Objectives: The aim of the study is to automate the plant disease recognition and classification process by using image processing and soft computing techniques. Methods/Analysis: The proposed method examined the five types of tomato plant diseases using natural outdoor images in the study. The tomato plant images categorized into six categories including five disease infected that are bacterial leaf spot, fungal septoria leaf spot, bacterial canker, fungal lateblight, tomato leaf curl and one non-infected (healthy). The total 180 images of the dataset used for training and testing purpose. The total thirteen features computed by using CIE XYZ color space conversions that included color moments, histogram, and color coherence vector features. For classification, computed features are fed into three classifiers, i.e., “Fuzzy Inference System based on subtractive clustering”, “Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system using hybrid learning algorithm and multi-layer feed forward back propagation neural network” for classification of six injured and healthy tomato plant disease. Finding: The classification accuracy is best yielded with multi-layer feed forward back propagation classifier of 87.2%. Novelty/Improvement: Usually, in the studies the only one type of plant disease considered for the recognition and classification purpose. The current study considered five different types of tomato plant diseases including fungal, bacterial and viral. It indicates that the proposed algorithm could reliably classify the different types of plant diseases in digital images.Keywords

In the hyper-connected world, data has been playing a significant role in earthing the system of every domain that one can think of. But, it is undeniable fact that today data has prone to serious threats as it was never before, which has questioned the reliability, integrity as well as security of data. So, the technology has emerged that can mitigate all these issues, and that technology is none other than the technology residing at the heart of Bitcoin, The Blockchain.
Blockchain is one of the powerful technologies that has brought a revolution in conventional trading techniques. Conceptually, it is an open and distributed ledger that maintains an irrefutable database of records of all transactions or values that have been executed and shared peer-to-peer directly obsoleting the need for trust-worthy intermediatory in a secure, verifiable, moreover, in a permanent way alleviating the risk of fraud.
The main objective of this paper is not only to make blockchain a common business trading language but also to present its compelling applications in contrasting domains that are beyond currency rides, specifically in healthcare, politics, and its strategic implications in bridging strong economy using smart contracts that can revolutionize our digital global village.

Organizations, which include government agencies, the military, and humanitarian groups, are responsible for providing the most vulnerable individuals with aid and protection during emergencies and disasters. Their rapid decisions are made possible through the information they gather. Their information needs vary depending on their specific roles and responsibilities. In times of crisis, they need factual and timely information, especially when there is a lack of reliable sources such as radio or TV. Due to the increasing number of people using social media platforms and mobile technologies, the general public has gained access to more effective and practical ways to share information. The term multimodal refers to the combination of various computational methods used to analyze the data collected from social media platforms. Some studies show how social media analytics can be used to summarize and curate information related to disasters. This paper discusses the research being conducted in the field of crisis informatics, which is an interdisciplinary discipline that combines the expertise of social science and computing to extract information related to disasters. Due to the availability of social media data, this field is heavily focused on developing effective strategies to use it.Keywords
