Abstract

The Editor-in-Chief and the publisher have retracted this article. The article was submitted to be part of a guest-edited issue. An investigation by the publisher found a number of articles, including this one, with a number of concerns, including but not limited to compromised editorial handling and peer review process, inappropriate or irrelevant references or not being in scope of the journal or guest-edited issue. Based on the investigation's findings the Editor-in-Chief therefore no longer has confidence in the results and conclusions of this article. Abhijit Bhattacharyya, Manish Sharma, Ram Bilas Pachori, and U. Rajendra Acharya disagree with this retraction. Pradip Sircar is deceased. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag London Ltd., part of Springer Nature 2024.
