Title: A Secure Electronic Voting System Using Multifactor Authentication and Blockchain Technologies Authors: Olaniyi, Olayemi Mikail; Dogo, E. M.; Nuhu Kontagora, Bello; Treiblmaier, H.; Abdulsalam, Y. S.; Folawiyo, Z Abstract: This paper presents a distributed e-voting system that solves the problems of vote-rigging, voter impersonation, and vote falsification, all of which are prevalent in traditional paper ballot systems. In general, the digitization of democratic decision-making is convenient, fast, and cost-saving but can become a gateway for electoral fraud if not properly secured. Authentication and the simultaneous achievement of confidentiality, integrity, and availability represent major challenges toward establishing e-voting as a reliable means of democratic decision-making. In this paper, a combination of multi-factor authentication (MFA) and blockchain techniques is used to secure electronic voting. MFA hampers the compromising of voters’ identities and allows for easy verification, while blockchain technology protects the integrity of the votes and ensures the verifiability of the cast votes. Combining a facial recognition algorithm and RFID authenticates and authorizes voters to participate in the election process. A smart contract implemented on an Ethereum network provides the required measures of integrity and verifiability for secure e-voting. Performance evaluations of the proposed approach show that the MFA yielded a 0.1% false acceptance rate and a 0.8% false rejection rate for 100 voters, respectively. This illustrates that the proposed technique can solve issues of authentication and integrity, thereby paving the way for free, fair, and credible e-democratic decision-making in digitally enabled voting scenario.

Title: Unimodal Medical Image Registration Using Elite Opposition Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm Authors: Maliki, Danlami; Muazu, M.B; Kolo, J.G; Olaniyi, O.M Abstract: Medical imaging applications frequently use image registration for a variety of purposes, and the search of an ideal image transformation parameters that align the two images (reference and floating) is still an optimization challenge. Medical image registration has been optimized using different metaheuristics optimization strategies. One method, the Bacterial Foraging Algorithm (BFOA), has issues of poor exploration and low convergence to a better solution. This research work presents the Elite Opposition Bacterial Foraging Optimization Algorithm (EOBFOA) for optimizing unimodal medical image registration. The EOBFOA is an enhanced version of Bacterial Foraging Algorithm (BFOA) using the Elite Opposition Strategy. The proposed EOBFOA uses Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) as a measure to determine the accuracy of the image registration process. The performance of the image registration using the EOBFOA was compared against other existing nature inspired algorithms. The obtained results shown that the proposed EOBFOA outperformed other algorithms in searching for the best optimum transformation parameters for the image registration.

Title: Application of Crypto-Blockchain Technology for Securing Electronic Voting Systems Authors: Lukman, Adewale Ajao; Umar, Buhari Ugbede; Olajide, Daniel Oluwaseun; Sanjay, Misra Abstract: The emergence of blockchain technology is indispensable and globally noticed as an efficient security countermeasure for online business, banking transactions, networking, and smart system-based Internet of Things (IoT). The blockchain utilized the advantages of the decentralization system and the crypto-hash method to provide unauthorized access among the chain participants. It provides data privacy, is immutable, prevents fraud, and avoids records tampering by an individual in the network. These prospects and possibilities validate blockchain confidence as an adequate security measure in the era of IoT and smart systems. However, this research proposes an integration of security countermeasure to enhance the adoption of smart electronic voting systems for election processes using blockchain technology with bi-factors authentication methods. The private blockchain technique is adopted to provide immutability, avoid records tampering, and ensure records transactions’ integrity and reliability. Using the Paillier homomorphic encryption algorithm on the decentralized system-based blockchain and electronic voting system through bi-factors certification and secrecy (Iris and Fingerprint). The system performance was proved better during testing with a false acceptance rate (FAR) of 0.02% and false rejection rate (FRR) of 0.1%. The crypto-blockchain technique using the Paillier homomorphic encryption performs well with moderate latency during certification execution and data retrieval timing.
