Through our comprehensive examination of the interface between classical and quantum realms, we aim to uncover transformative insights that will propel the field forward, fostering innovation and advancing the frontier of quantum machine learning.

Accelerating Neural Network Training: A Brief Review

The process of training a deep neural network is characterized by significant time requirements and associated costs. Although researchers have made considerable progress in this area, further work is still required due to resource constraints. This study examines innovative approaches to expedite the training process of deep neural networks (DNN), with specific emphasis on three state-of-the-art models such as ResNet50, Vision Transformer (ViT), and EfficientNet. The research utilizes sophisticated methodologies, including Gradient Accumulation (GA), Automatic Mixed Precision (AMP), and Pin Memory (PM), in order to optimize performance and accelerate the training procedure. The study examines the effects of these methodologies on the DNN models discussed earlier, assessing their efficacy with regard to training rate and computational efficacy. The study showcases the efficacy of including GA as a strategic approach, resulting in a noteworthy decrease in the duration required for training. This enables the models to converge at a faster pace. The utilization of AMP enhances the speed of computations by taking advantage of the advantages offered by lower precision arithmetic while maintaining the correctness of the model. Furthermore, this study investigates the application of Pin Memory as a strategy to enhance the efficiency of data transmission between the central processing unit and the graphics processing unit, thereby offering a promising opportunity for enhancing overall performance. The experimental findings demonstrate that the combination of these sophisticated methodologies significantly accelerates the training of DNNs, offering vital insights for experts seeking to improve the effectiveness of deep learning processes.

EmbAu: A Novel Technique to Embed Audio Data Using Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm

The aim of steganographic algorithms is to identify the appropriate pixel positions in the host or cover image, where bits of sensitive information can be concealed for data encryption. Work is being done to improve the capacity to integrate sensitive information and to maintain the visual appearance of the steganographic image. Consequently, steganography is a challenging research area. In our currently proposed image steganographic technique, we used the Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) to determine the order of pixels by which sensitive information can be placed in the cover image. To achieve greater embedding capacity, pixels from the spatial domain of the cover image are carefully chosen and used for placing the sensitive data. Bolstered via image steganography, the final image after embedding is resistant to steganalytic attacks. The SFLA algorithm serves in the optimal pixels selection of any colored (RGB) cover image for secret bit embedding. Using the fitness function, the SFLA benefits by reaching a minimum cost value in an acceptable amount of time. The pixels for embedding are meticulously chosen to minimize the host image's distortion upon embedding. Moreover, an effort has been taken to make the detection of embedded data in the steganographic image a formidable challenge. Due to the enormous need for audio data encryption in the current world, we feel that our suggested method has significant potential in real-world applications. In this paper, we propose and compare our strategy to existing steganographic methods.
