I need to draw the following diagram using TikZ package in LaTeX

I wrote the following code so far but the result is really bad.

          As you see, I have




          1. moved some repetition out of the matrix;

          2. added some connections;

          3. replaced tikzstyle by the corresponding tikzset syntax, as the former is deprecated;

          4. removed libraries that were not in use.


          The code can be condensed a bit more with chains.

          1. moved some repetition out of the matrix;

          2. added some connections;

          3. replaced tikzstyle by the corresponding tikzset syntax, as the former is deprecated;

          4. removed libraries that were not in use.


          The code can be condensed a bit more with chains.
