DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijeme.2024.06.02, Pub. Date: 8 Dec. 2024

Blockchain technology can revolutionize product authenticity verification by utilizing decentralized networks to collect and retain product data. This generates an irrevocable record of a product's path from manufacture to sale, making it possible to detect phony or counterfeit goods, a problem that plagues many different industries.
A common problem that compromises consumer confidence and harms brand integrity in a variety of businesses is counterfeiting. Our strategy involves establishing a blockchain-based product registry, allowing various supply chain nodes, including production and store shipping, to update information such as origin, materials, and certificates. Smart contracts also provide various applications for detecting fake goods, thus preventing the introduction of counterfeit goods into the supply chain. Based on predefined standards, these self-executing contracts validate the product's legitimacy. Blockchain technology makes it possible to verify things accurately, ensuring that customers receive the real goods they pay for. Our system enables accurate verification, ensuring that customers receive genuine goods. by scanning a QR code that connects to the blockchain record, customers can instantly authenticate the legitimacy and history of a product, ensuring its authenticity. By offering a clear picture of the product's route, this approach boosts consumer trust by ensuring a high level of security and traceability. This method offers a safe and effective solution to the age-old issue of product authenticity because of its decentralized structure and immutable record-keeping. This is a breakthrough in fighting counterfeiting and maintaining product integrity by empowering customers, defending brands, and encouraging a more trustworthy marketplace.

Smart Contract Obfuscation Technique to Enhance Code Security and Prevent Code Reusability

By Kakelli Anil Kumar Aena Verma Hritish Kumar

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijmsc.2022.03.03, Pub. Date: 8 Aug. 2022

Along with the advancements in blockchain technology, many blockchain-based successful projects have been done mainly on the ethereum platform, most of which deal with transactions. Still, it also carries various risks when it comes to security, as evident from past attacks. Most big projects like uniswap, decentraland, and others use smart contracts, deployed on the ethereum platform, leading to similar projects via code reuse. Code reuse practice is quite frequent as a survey suggests 26% of contract code deployed is via code reuse. Smart contract code obfuscation techniques can be used on solidity code that is publicly verified, published (in the case of Ethereum), and on the deployment address. All the above techniques work by replacing characters with their random counterpart, known as statistical substitution. A statistical substitution is a process of transforming an input string into a new string where each character has been replaced by a random character drawn from a stock of all possible 'random' characters. Therefore, we proposed numerous methods in this paper to solve the above problems using various smart contract code obfuscation techniques. These techniques can be really useful in blockchain projects and can save millions of dollars to investors & companies by enhancing code security and preventing code reusability. Techniques mentioned in this paper when compared with other techniques. Our methods are not expensive to implement, very easy to use, and provide a developer-friendly selective increment in code complexity.

Emoji Prediction Using Emerging Machine Learning Classifiers for Text-based Communication

By Sayan Saha Kakelli Anil Kumar

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijmsc.2022.01.04, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2022

We aim to extract emotional components within statements to identify the emotional state of the writer and assigning emoji related to the emotion. Emojis have become a staple part of everyday text-based communication. It is normal and common to construct an entire response with the sole use of emoji. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that effort is being put into the automatic prediction and selection of emoji appropriate for a text message. Major companies like Apple and Google have made immense strides in this, and have already deployed such systems into production (for example, the Google Gboard). The proposed work is focused on the problem of automatic emoji selection for a given text message using machine learning classification algorithms to categorize the tone of a message which is further segregated through n-gram into one of seven distinct categories. Based on the output of the classifier, select one of the more appropriate emoji from a predefined list using natural language processing (NLP) and sentimental analysis techniques. The corpus is extracted from Twitter. The result is a boring text message made lively after being annotated with appropriate text messages

Vehicle license number plate detection is essential for road safety and traffic management. Many existing systems have been proposed to achieve high detection precision without optimization of computer resources. Existing models have not preferred to use devices like smartphones or surveillance cameras because of high latency, data loss, bandwidth costs, and privacy. In this article, we propose a model of unloading decisions based on reinforcement learning (RL-OLD) for recognition and detection of vehicle license plates for high precision with optimization of computer resources. The proposed model detected different categories of vehicle registration plates by effectively utilizing edge computing. Our model can choose either the compute-intensive model of the cloud or the lightweight model of the local system based on the properties of the number plate. This approach has achieved high accuracy, limited data loss, and limited latency.
