Diabetes Mellitus (DM), a chronic lifelong condition, is characterized by increased blood sugar levels. As there is no cure for DM, the major focus lies on controlling the disease. Therefore, DM diagnosis and treatment is of great importance. The most common complications of DM include retinopathy, neuropathy, nephropathy and cardiomyopathy. Diabetes causes cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy that affects the Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Hence, in the absence of other causes, the HRV analysis can be used to diagnose diabetes. The present work aims at developing an automated system for classification of normal and diabetes classes by using the heart rate (HR) information extracted from the Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. The spectral analysis of HRV recognizes patients with autonomic diabetic neuropathy, and gives an earlier diagnosis of impairment of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Significant correlations with the impaired ANS are observed of the HRV spectral indices obtained by using the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) method. Herein, in order to diagnose and detect DM automatically, we have performed DWT decomposition up to 5 levels, and extracted the energy, sample entropy, approximation entropy, kurtosis and skewness features at various detailed coefficient levels of the DWT. We have extracted relative wavelet energy and entropy features up to the 5th level of DWT coefficients extracted from HR signals. These features are ranked by using various ranking methods, namely, Bhattacharyya space algorithm, t-test, Wilcoxon test, Receiver Operating Curve (ROC) and entropy. The ranked features are then fed into different classifiers, that include Decision Tree (DT), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naive Bayes (NBC) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Our results have shown maximum diagnostic differentiation performance by using a minimum number of features. With our system, we have obtained an average accuracy of 92.02%, sensitivity of 92.59% and specificity of 91.46%, by using DT classifier with ten-fold cross validation. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.

Steganography is a type of image information concealing technique which hides a secret message in a different media such as image, video and audio etc, called cover file. The main idea of steganography is to provide security to private or public data. In this paper we combined among Hadamard transformation and Absolute Moment Block Truncation Coding to make a new concept called (H-AMBTC), this concept used for compressing the cover file and conceal the secret data into the cover file. The H-AMBTC compression is not only image compression, but it is more than the AMBTC technique as only half of the number of pixels in the binary converted image are transmitted. In this paper, the comparison process of the H-AMBTC technique is done for 2x2, 4x4, 8x8 and 16x16 block sizes. H-AMBTC is a lossy technique as the cover image and the secret image can be recovered completely. I. INTRODUCTION Steganography is an old science, but its applications in the information concealing are new. However, steganography is referred to as a process to conceal secret data of different media (message, image, information, etc.) into another digital media (text, image, audio or video streams), called cover files, steganography can solve the problem of perception of the secret message. The media that conceals the data is called " cover'' or " host'' media. Computer based steganography is usually based on randomness. There are many occurrences of randomness in computer based information. Steganography data can be hidden into this random information. The merits of a steganography method are judged on whether the addition of the steganography data changes the randomness. Image steganography as an individual concept has already been discussed. [1] But a few researchers' works on the images steganography combine with compression tools. In our work, we discuss how to combine the AMBTC technique and Hadamard transform to give a good technique called (H-AMBTC), and combined this work with the image steganography, in this case the image compressed steganography will be high powerful. AMBTC has the same general characteristics as BTC which includes low storage requirements and an extremely simple coding and decoding technique. The main idea of AMBTC is to preserve higher mean and lower mean of each small rectangular block of pixels spatially and non-overlapping divided from the original image. Thus it is necessary to increase the number of quantization levels to improve the image quality. The rest of this paper is organized as following: Sec.2 deals with the Preliminaries which are discussed the AMBTC, Hadamard transformation, compression procedures and image quality measurements. Sec.3, gives the details about the proposed scheme called an H-AMBTC and its algorithms respectively. In Sec.4, the performing and the results are analysed. Finally, Sec.5, gives the concluding remarks.

— Today`s era is all about Big data. The stream of data which is continuously generated by Internet requires a huge storage capacity. In spite of the availability of various data center and content delivery networks, it also imposes constraints on it. In this scenario, we require compression mechanism that can successfully reduce the bulk amount of data and also capable of perfectly reconstruct it. In this paper we have work on the restoration of compressed image with lossless feature using an existing novel method of data folding technique[1]. This approach is more feasible for continuous-tone images which comes in spatial domain by reducing the machine computational complexity and with smart compression as compression to existing techniques. The idea of data folding is followed in the way of dividing the images in rows and columns and then the column is folded iteratively followed by another row folding. And this process is repeated until we cover all rows and columns present in original one and hence we obtain a reduced sized image which has higher potency. For the effectiveness of approach we have compared with some of existing standard approaches of image compression like SPHIT and JPEG-LS. INTRODUCTION Generally image describes about the visual opinion of certain object. In some applications, this objective can be fulfilled by only representing image regardless of their size. Image compression has a revolutionary impact in the area of transmission and data storage irrespective of the limited size of the storage. Due to importance of compression, various techniques and methods have been proposed used to store and transmit the images over the network. Another characteristics of these algorithms are that they also reduced the compression time of the process as well as it also insure the integrity of the graphics images while processing it. Since all information are now stored in cloud and can be view and downloaded through web, it makes graphics images portable so that it can be fetched with no time. Various researches and experiments have been conducted to evaluate the efficiency of a good image compression technique. Various factors have been proposed like compression ratio, compression size, and entropy for compression technique. Compression Size is the reduction in volume of the source file after performing the compression technique. The ratio of the original file size (in bits) to the compressed image size in bits is called the compression ratio of the compression technique. Entropy defines the amount of bits which are used to represent the original image after coding is performed. Generally the entropy of an image compression algorithm is given by Shannon's formula: , 2 (1) During the designing of a compression technique for an image, there are numerous parameter that must be taken into account for better achievement of compression efficiency and computational complexity of the processing. These parameters are more concerns as it varies from one environment to another, from one bandwidth to another. The organization of the paper is as follows. Section II contains the description of basic image compression principals. Section III illustrate the literature works that have been carries out in past. In section IV, we have presented the proposed compression method based on data folding and compare the results with Lossless SPHIT and JPEG-LS method, followed by the results and discussions in section V. The last section presents the conclusion.
