This study presents a case focused on sustainable farming practices, specifically the cultivation of tilapia (Mozambican and aureus species) in ponds with geothermal water. research aims to optimize hydrochemical regime experimental enhance growth metrics external characteristics breeders. The dataset encompasses parameters fish feeding base from where were cultivated. Genetic algorithms (GA) employed for hyperparameter optimization (HPO) deep neural networks (DNN) prediction productivity each pond under varying conditions, achieving an R2 score 0.94. GA-driven HPO process is robust method optimizing aquaculture practices by accurately predicting how different conditions feed bases influence tilapia. By determining these factors, model promotes improving breeding outcomes maximizing aquaculture. approach can also be applied other systems, enhancing efficiency sustainability across various species.

Published: June 23, 2024

Abstract Blockchain networks continue to gain attraction in cutting‐edge applications and mining within these has become increasingly popular. To get rewards, miners solve cryptographic puzzles add new blocks blockchain using the proof‐of‐work (PoW) consensus mechanism. Numerous opt participate pools due challenges of solo mining. However, selecting reputed for pool poses a significant challenge, given decentralized nature system. This paper addresses this challenge by introducing ranking model that evaluates miners' performance reputation through trust scores. It provides method optimizing identifying highly pools, enhancing overall profitability. endeavor necessitates development algorithms tailored unique dynamics pools. The research offers meticulously designed identifies miners. We extensively evaluate proposed hyperledger framework, guaranteeing strong across vital metrics like block authorization time, Processing creation validation confirmation time.
