In this paper, nanoferrite (CdFe₂O₄-SnO₂) was prepared by the auto combustion method (sol-gel), with weight ratios of (x = 0.0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25) for SnO₂. The properties of the nanoferrite were characterized by XRD, FE-SEM, and EDX techniques. The results showed that the produced compound had a cubic spinel ferrite phase; the crystallite size was determined using the Scherrer and Williamson-Hall equation. The FE-SEM image demonstrated that the compound is porous, with nanoscale particles that have a ball-like appearance. The EDX test verified the existence of Fe, O, Cd, and Sn atoms. Gas sensing showed the compound's high sensitivity to H₂S.

     Gastrointestinal (GI) diseases are increasing day by day due to the continuous change in people's dietary habits, as these changes play a major role in several intestinal problems. Endoscopy is a medical imaging device used to detect and diagnose gastrointestinal diseases such as esophagitis and benign tumors. Manual diagnosis consumes a long time, so there is an urgent need to use computer techniques for GI disease diagnosis accurate and fast. In this study, a Bayesian optimizer-based pre-trained model architecture (BOPMA) is proposed to improve GI disease detection. The BOPMA is concerned with adapting the Bayesian optimizer in two important aspects: improving the EfficientNetV2s architecture and fine-tuning the hyperparameter

       Recently, much secured data has been sent across the internet and networks. Steganography is very important because it conceals secure data in images, texts, audios, protocols, videos, or other mediums. Video steganography is the method of concealing data in frames of video format. A video is a collection of frames or images used for hidden script messages. This paper proposes a technique to encrypt secret messages using DNA and a 3D chaotic map in video frames using the raster method. This technique uses three steps: Firstly, converting video frames into raster to extract features from each frame. Secondly, encryption of secret messages using encoded forms of DNA bases, inverse/inverse complements of DNA, a
