 Abstract

Manual attendance systems are often time-consuming, prone to errors, and susceptible to proxy attendance. This paper presents an automated attendance marking system leveraging deep learning and computer vision techniques to streamline the process in academic environments. The system is divided into three core phases: face extraction, recognition, and database-driven attendance marking. RetinaFace is employed to accurately detect and extract faces from classroom images, enhancing image quality to improve recognition. A trained convolutional neural network model classifies each face with high precision, and the recognized identities are recorded into a structured MySQL database. Attendance is automatically marked based on real-time recognition, minimizing human intervention. The system ensures scalability, accuracy, and reusability, making it a practical solution for modern educational institutions. Future extensions may include live camera integration and real-time dashboards for faculty and administrative use.

 Abstract

Globally, integrating robotic systems into healthcare is reshaping hospital functions by enhancing precision, efficiency, and safety. Despite these advancements, there remains a notable gap in understanding the attitudes of Indian healthcare professionals toward such technological innovations. This study aimed to develop and validate a Multidimensional Robot Attitude Scale (MRAS) to assess healthcare professionals' perceptions regarding robotic integration in clinical settings across Kerala. The scale encompasses six key domains: Negative Attitude, Self-Efficacy, Utility, Cost, Control, and Operations. Psychometric analysis revealed strong internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.84) and construct validity through exploratory factor analysis, indicating that the MRAS is a reliable and valid tool. Findings suggest that while most healthcare professionals in Kerala express moderately positive attitudes toward robotics, concerns persist--particularly in domains related to cost and emotional unease. The MRAS offers a robust framework for evaluating acceptability and can support policy formulation, training, and strategic planning for the integration of robotics in Indian healthcare environments.

 Abstract

The Abrahamic religious traditions are namely Judaism, Christianity and Islam. All the three religious traditions give importance to the call and life experience of the fore father Abraham. The Incarnation, Teachings, Miracles, Crucifixion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ are the basics of Christian belief and practices. The life and teachings of Jesus Christ is the foundation of Christianity. The core values of the Holy Bible make the society with the sense of self respect, respect for others, justice, equality, fraternity and freedom. The practice of ethical teachings of the Bible is not found effective even within the church itself. The data proves that the struggles of Dalit Christians within the fold of the church exists in many ways. For example, the ill-treatment, inequality, injustice are found from time to time. It is an attempt to highlight the ethical teachings of Christianity and how are not practiced particularly against Dalit Christians within the church. The possible suggestions to shun the discrimination of Dalit Christians within the church in India.

 Abstract

In the fast-paced, extremely competitive, and globalized business world of today, organizations are also increasingly realizing the strategic significance of Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) as a significant component of efficient supply chain management. SRM is defined as the systematic method for creating and managing partnerships with the suppliers who provide goods and services to an organization. This article discusses the direct and indirect impacts of SRM practices on overall supply chain performance and highlights how a collaborative and trust-driven approach can improve operational efficiency, lower costs, and enhance customer satisfaction. The study is motivated by the imperative of comprehending how suppliers' role is transforming from transactional to strategic partners in the supply chain. The study examines the essential aspects of SRM like selection of the supplier, communication, trust, sharing of information, monitoring of performance, and long-term cooperation and their separate and combined effect on the performance indicators of supply chains like flexibility, responsiveness, cost efficiency, and delivery dependability. The study uses a mixed-method research design. Quantitative data are gathered using structured questionnaires from supply chain experts and purchasing managers from manufacturing and retail industries. The population size comprises 150 respondents selected via stratified random sampling. The analysis of the data uses statistical methods such as correlation and regression analysis to determine the correlation between SRM variables and supply chain performance indicators. The results depict a high degree of positive relationship between best SRM practices and supply chain performance. Supplier trust and collaboration are discovered to be the most significant drivers of supply chain agility and lead time reduction. In addition, various challenges like transparency, technology integration problems, and goal alignment issues between buyers and suppliers have been discovered as barriers to SRM effectiveness. This study adds to the body of knowledge on supply chain optimization and offers practical suggestions to practitioners to formulate effective supplier management strategies. Companies that seek competitive gain need to invest in building credible supplier relationships via commitment, common goals, and continuous improvement practices.

 Abstract

Secondary education is an important link in the current education system. The secondary education system is a door of education which on one hand opens the way for higher education and on the other hand opens the way for employment and livelihood.Secondary education has the responsibility of training people from every section of society. In secondary school, emphasis is laid on essential personality traits such as self-respect, self-confidence, self-reliance, discretion, justice, expression of views, etc.In India, studies in the field of environment started after 1960. Dr. Motilal Sharma has done a lot of work on this subject. The academicians working in this direction believe that just as every person has a different personality andWe also get to see differences in them on the basis of effectiveness. That is, there are some people who influence us a lot and at the same time they are coordinated and balanced in themselves and some personalities are such that apart from being ineffective, they are also unbalanced in themselves. Similarly, every school has its own atmosphere. The voice of the students in the school automatically tells what the atmosphere of the school is like.Sometimes this voice is so serious that it shows the stress inside the children. It can be stress related to school, school administration or education.Stress is found in many forms in front of individuals and students. Such as avoidance of low performance level, worry about negative results, etc.Thus, we can say that academic stress is an important factor affecting students.

 Abstract

Steganography is a robust method for secure information dissemination; whereby private data is integrated into digital media with an intention to keep them imperceptible. The work introduces a productive image steganography using the Least Significant Bit (LSB) substitution strategy, wherein concealed data is covertly placed into pixel intensity in an image. LSB method remains a favourite methodology owing to the simplicity in deployment, very large capacity, as well as being insensitive to reducing the image's quality. We present the embedding and extraction process, evaluate the strength of the method with respect to robustness, and compare its performance using Peak Signal- to Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Mean Squared Error (MSE) measurements. Experimental findings show that the proposed method efficiently hides information with imperceptible loss in image quality. The research points to the possibility of LSB-based steganography as a secure method of communication and discusses its shortfalls, like susceptibility to steganalysis. Future extensions such as adaptive embedding and cryptographic support are also examined to enhance security and attack resilience.
