It fosters collaboration and informed decision-making across diverse domains. Conversely, Python is indispensable for professional programming due to its versatility, readability, extensive libraries, and robust community support. It enables efficient development, advanced data analysis, data mining, and automation, catering to diverse industries and applications. However, one primary issue when using Microsoft Excel with Python libraries is compatibility and interoperability. While Excel is a widely used tool for data storage and analysis, it may not seamlessly integrate with Python libraries, leading to challenges in reading and writing data, especially in complex or large datasets. Additionally, manipulating Excel files with Python may not always preserve formatting or formulas accurately, potentially affecting data integrity. Moreover, dependency on Excel’s graphical user interface (GUI) for automation can limit scalability and reproducibility compared to Python’s scripting capabilities. This paper covers the integration solution of empowering non-programmers to leverage Python’s capabilities within the familiar Excel environment. This enables users to perform advanced data analysis and automation tasks without requiring extensive programming knowledge. Based on Soliciting feedback from non-programmers who have tested the integration solution, the case study shows how the solution evaluates the ease of implementation, performance, and compatibility of Python with Excel versions.展开更多

However, this enormously interconnected world is not without its risks. Malicious URLs are a powerful menace, masquerading as legitimate links while holding the intent to hack computer systems or steal sensitive personal information. As the sophistication and frequency of cyberattacks increase, identifying bad URLs has emerged as a critical aspect of cybersecurity. This study presents a new approach that enables the average end-user to check URL safety using Microsoft Excel. Using the powerful VirusTotal API for URL inspections, this study creates an Excel add-in that integrates Python and Excel to deliver a seamless, user-friendly interface. Furthermore, the study improves Excel’s capabilities by allowing users to encrypt and decrypt text communications directly in the spreadsheet. Users may easily encrypt their conversations by simply typing a key and the required text into predefined cells, enhancing their personal cybersecurity with a layer of cryptographic secrecy. This strategy democratizes access to advanced cybersecurity solutions, making attentive digital integrity a feature rather than a daunting burden.展开更多

Deep neural network models and enhanced object representation have led to significant progress in object detection. This research investigates in greater detail how object detection has changed in the recent years in the deep learning age. We provide an overview of the literature on a range of cutting-edge object identification algorithms and the theoretical underpinnings of these techniques. Deep learning technologies are contributing to substantial innovations in the field of object detection. While Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have laid a solid foundation, new models such as You Only Look Once (YOLO) and Vision Transformers (ViTs) have expanded the possibilities even further by providing high accuracy and fast detection in a variety of settings. Even with these developments, integrating CNN, YOLO and ViTs, into a coherent framework still poses challenges with juggling computing demand, speed, and accuracy especially in dynamic contexts. Real-time processing in applications like surveillance and autonomous driving necessitates improvements that take use of each model type’s advantages. The goal of this work is to provide an object detection system that maximizes detection speed and accuracy while decreasing processing requirements by integrating YOLO, CNN, and ViTs. Improving real-time detection performance in changing weather and light exposure circumstances, as well as detecting small or partially obscured objects in crowded cities, are among the goals. We provide a hybrid architecture which leverages CNN for robust feature extraction, YOLO for rapid detection, and ViTs for remarkable global context capture via self-attention techniques. Using an innovative training regimen that prioritizes flexible learning rates and data augmentation procedures, the model is trained on an extensive dataset of urban settings. Compared to solo YOLO, CNN, or ViTs models, the suggested model exhibits an increase in detection accuracy. This improvement is especially noticeable in difficult situations such settings with high occlusion and low light. In addition, it attains a decrease in inference time in comparison to baseline models, allowing real-time object detection without performance loss. This work introduces a novel method of object identification that integrates CNN, YOLO and ViTs, in a synergistic way. The resultant framework extends the use of integrated deep learning models in practical applications while also setting a new standard for detection performance under a variety of conditions. Our research advances computer vision by providing a scalable and effective approach to object identification problems. Its possible uses include autonomous navigation, security, and other areas.展开更多
