 Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the effects of the yogic practices (yogasanas and pranayama) to improve the cardio-respiratory endurance ability among the college women kabaddi players. The data on selected variable was collected by using Harward Step Test . The data collected from the two groups before and after the experimental period were statistically examined for significant improvement by dependent 't' test. To make adjustments for difference in the initial means and to test the adjusted post test means for significant differences between two groups, the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was used. In all the cases 0.05 level was fixed as significant level to test the hypothesis. The results proved that the practice of selected yogasanas and pranayama for twelve weeks by experimental group, the cardio-respiratory endurance ability was improved significantly. There was no improvement of cardio-respiratory endurance in the control group because they did not do additional practice of yogasanas and pranayama.

 Abstract

Quadruple hypergeometric polynomials constitute a natural higher-dimensional extension of classical hypergeometric polynomials and arise in multivariate approximation theory, multiple orthogonality, and the analysis of systems of partial differential equations. Recent work on hypergeometric functions of several variables-especially those of Srivastava, Exton, and their generalizations-has established a variety of series, transformation, and integral representations for triple and quadruple hypergeometric functions. However, systematic integral representations tailored specifically to polynomial families of quadruple hypergeometric type remain comparatively underdeveloped. In this paper we introduce a class of quadruple hypergeometric polynomials M_n (x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4) arising from a truncated quadruple hypergeometric series, and we derive several integral representations of Euler- and Laplace-type. Our approach combines classical techniques based on Beta and Gamma integrals with operational methods and factorization of the Pochhammer symbol, extending ideas used earlier for triple hypergeometric functions and Exton-Srivastava quadruple functions. The resulting integral formulas provide new analytical tools for studying convergence, asymptotic behavior, and structural properties (such as orthogonality and generating functions) of these polynomials. In addition, we discuss numerical implications and outline how the derived representations can be exploited for efficient computation via multidimensional quadrature and Monte Carlo methods.

 Abstract

Adversarial attacks on machine learning (ML) models present significant risks to the integrity and reliability of cybersecurity systems. These attacks manipulate the input data to deceive ML models into making incorrect predictions or classifications, compromising the performance of security systems such as intrusion detection systems, malware detection, and fraud prevention. The vulnerability of ML models to such attacks threatens the overall effectiveness of automated security defences and can lead to severe consequences in both real-world applications and threat mitigation efforts.This paper addresses the risks posed by adversarial attacks on ML models within the context of cybersecurity. We propose a novel algorithm aimed at enhancing the robustness of ML models against adversarial manipulations. The proposed algorithm leverages advanced defence mechanisms such as adversarial training, gradient masking, and feature squeezing to detect and mitigate the effects of adversarial inputs. By augmenting the training process with adversarial examples and employing real-time detection strategies, the algorithm improves the model's ability to withstand malicious alterations while maintaining high accuracy.

 Abstract

The present chapter inspects parity and disparity of the characteristic features of the fiction of Shobha De and Preeti Shenoy. Similarity between the write up of these two novelists is the emergence of new woman who has eventually liberated and carved a niche for herself. The dissimilarity is that the novels of Shobha De are based on Radical Feminism whereas the fiction of Preeti Shenoy is based on Liberal Feminism. Shobha De and Preeti Shenoy are more or less contemporaries. There are similarities in writing different women oriented themes between these two writers. They have emphasized emancipation, self and identity, empowerment of women and the evolution of new woman in India. These fiction writers have highlighted the impact of the rise of feminism in India. The emergence of new woman is depicted through their female protagonists. The conventional woman of India is totally different from the traditional woman of India. They have shown outstanding perceptiveness and compassionate vision into the poignant world of women. They have guided their female protagonists towards self-definition and self-realization. They have instilled in their female characters a good sense of feminine identity. Their books are about the search of women for their identity. It is an examination of the feminine consciousness, and an awareness of their lives' complications being women. Their writings highlight the role of protagonists in creating a place of their own.

 Abstract

Methods, approaches and techniques for teaching diverse subjects at diverse places can be vary from teacher to teacher, age to age of learners and teachers, and easy to hard in relation to the levels when it comes to schooling and teaching English Language. In ancient times India has gurukul system of gaining knowledge of different kinds. In modern times the scenario has changed tremendously. Government took charge of education and it became public concern after independence but in the era of technology the traditional education needs changes in approach and techniques. With the principal objective of examining the digital pedagogy with multiple alternatives for teaching, the present research article has been attempted. It discusses the digital tools in short, emphasis on the digital pedagogy in New Education Policy, risks and danger in using the digital tools and most importantly the investigation into the problem of using digital pedagogy and its inevitable shift in the era of technology for teaching English Language. Digital tools, software, applications, digital platforms and their use and challenges on the part of the students as well as the teachers are the major concerns of the research article.

 Abstract

The paper explores into the way of life adopted by the young adults influenced by the effects of K- wave also known as Korean wave of South Korea in small districts like Darjeeling and Kalimpong in West Bengal, India. The Korean culture has been a wave of cultural assimilation through digital age, especially Korean popular music, K-pop. The young adults who are part of the popular culture and has an impact on other social relations and structures of any given society, is the focal point of the paper. It looks into how adapting another culture has changed the lifestyle, perspectives, social relations and approaches towards life among these young adults. The paper primarily focuses on understanding nuances and experiences of the young adults and their personal accounts on how has K-wave impacted their lives and how do they perceive a culture which has been learnt through the medium of digital world. It intends to explore a basic understanding at a micro level on how the young adults relate to the Korean culture and their choices and preferences towards their own culture.

 Abstract

Education, according to Swami Vivekananda, is not filling the mind with a lot of facts but changing the man by perfecting the mind. Perfecting and getting complete mastery of one's own mind is the ideal of education. It is not possible to change the mind by force. Nor is it possible to change it by one's own sweet will. One can change one's mind only by gaining complete mastery over one's own thoughts. The thoughts and the senses should be my servants not my masters. Then only it is possible to dispel evil. Education is a process of making man divine by the mastery over one's thoughts and senses. This is possible through the power of concentration. Concentration, according to Vivekananda, is the power of attachment of the mind to certain things. Concentration includes the power of detachment also.

 Abstract

Stress is a universal element and persons from nearly every walk of life have to face stress. Employers today are critically analyzing the stress management issues that contribute to lower job performance of employees originating from dissatisfaction and high turnover ultimately affecting both organizational goals as well as family life of employees. The main reason for stress appears to be either failure to balance between career goals and family responsibility. This imbalance ultimately leads to increased number of family disputes, divorce cases, failure at corporate level and so on. The aim of the research was to find out the relationship between independent variable - work-life balance and dependent variable - job stress. The findings of the study revealed that the incidence of job stress was directly associated with the level of work-life balance. The result of hypothesis testing rejected the null hypothesis of no association between these two variables meaning there by the acceptance of alternate hypothesis of a strong association between these two variables. At the same time result of correlation coefficient between these two variables was highly negative which was interpreted that high work life balance has less job stress establishing the fact that a proper work-life balance certainly lessens job stress. The incidence of job stress in the female employees of IT industry in Jodhpur was more as compared to the male employees of the same age group.
