Summary: Drought has a direct impact on environmental sustainability. Predicting drought early on can help in implementing drought mitigation plans. In India, the standardized precipitation index (SPI) and standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) are used to predict meteorological drought. This study evaluates the ability of these indices to predict meteorological drought in Tamil Nadu using 62 years of data.

Summary: Brain tumor diagnosis has been time-consuming, but automating the segmentation process can speed it up. This paper introduces SPP-U-Net, a model that replaces residual connections with a combination of Spatial Pyramid Pooling (SPP) and Attention blocks, allowing for greater context and scope in the segmentation. The proposed approach achieves comparable results to existing literature without increasing training parameters.

Summary: The recent trend of creating an interconnected world through satellites has reignited interest in satellite communications. Private and government-funded space agencies are making progress in developing satellite constellations, and the introduction of 5G technology has brought attention to the concept of a fully connected world. Satellites are seen as solutions to establish high-speed and low-latency connections in remote and inaccessible areas. However, the increasing number of satellites in Earth's orbit has raised concerns and calls for highly adaptive and flexible satellite systems. This review explores the utilization of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) in satellite communications, covering the implementation of satellite communication subsystems and other applications through Artificial Intelligence (AI), as well as ongoing challenges and future directions.
