 Abstract

Agriculture plays undeniably an indispensable role to human kind. Due to increased population, demand for the food is also getting increased, hence the production should be maximized. To ensure this, crops should be protected from diseases that are caused by fungi, viruses and bacteria. Deep learning is a part of a broader family of machine learning methods based on Artificial Neural Networks with representation learning. It can draw conclusions from various sets of raw data. It can aid farmers to predict the yield and quality of crops, detect weed and diseases. Precision Farming applies real time and historical data along with machine learning and deep learning algorithms to arrive at specific decisions for small regions of the application rather than applying the same working for a large range in the traditional method. In order to increase the production and maximize the profit, the crops should be protected from the diseases. In existing system, only the fungal disease called Anthracnose in Mango leaves is detected. For the pre-processing of leaves, histogram equalization method for contrast enhancement and for resizing the image to a standard size central square crop method are used. And for the classification multilayer convolutional neural network is used. In the proposed work, diseases for crops like paddy, plants like brinjal and tress like citrus family will be detected. Grayscale conversion is to be done for the preprocessing and noises in the image will be removed by using median filter algorithm.For the leaf segmentation Active Contour approach is going to be implemented. For the classification part, Multilayer Convolutional Neural Network (MCNN) is going to be implemented. And the crucial improvement in our work is recommending the fertilizers and pesticides for the affected diseases.

 Abstract

: The objective is to study the deflection of curved deck slab subjected to uniformly distributed load and concentrated loads. This study was done with the help of Experimental work and Finite Element Analysis computer programmed. A comparative analysis to torsional moment was done with the done with the Witecki expression for tensional moment and with Finite element Analysis. The stability analysis was done with the help of computer programmed. When the deck slab is curved there is problem stability and torsional is of paramount importance. And first designing of curved deck was done then the physical model was casted .The suitable support frame arrangement was made to keep specimens stable. Loading taken was scaled class tracked vehicle loading and Uniformly Distributed Loading. The specimen was tested for deflections in laboratory .And a similarity was tried to make between crack pattern and values obtained of Maximum Stress. Then result is compared to the Finite Computer Programmed of deflection. And Longitudinal Bending Moment and torsional moments were also compared with A.A.Witecki method of calculating moments. There was also a check performed for stability with the help of computer programmed.

 Abstract

Periodontitis is a multifactorial disease of the supporting tissues of the teeth. Bone loss and attachment loss occur by the untreated periodontitis. Periodontal tissue regeneration has always been a dare for the periodontist because of its structural intricacy. However, with tissue engineering as a rising multidisciplinary branch, this aim has partially been fulfilled. Regeneration is reconstruction of both hard and soft tissues in structure and function. Various treatment modalities i.e. bone grafts and substitutes, guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membranes and growth factors (PGFs) are used for periodontal regeneration. Platelet concentrates are abundant source for growth factors. Platelet concentrates are prepared from the patient�s own blood throughout that the activated platelets are become close among a fibrin matrix scaffold and release growth factors and cytokines played key role in tissue regeneration; including cell proliferation and differentiation, extracellular matrix synthesis, chemotaxis and angiogenesis. This review highlights various types of platelet concentrates, and there clinical applications within the treatment of periodontal diseases.

Abstract: The aim of the research was to determine the differences in the duration of judo fights between judo championships of different competitive levels. The samples were 606 judo fights, recorded at the National Championship of Uzbekistan and the European Championship. All analyzed fights were divided into three variables: Time I �introductory phase of the competition (I, II, III, and IV rounds); Time II - final phase of the competition (quarterfinals, repeachage, third place fights, semifinals and finals); and, Time III � all rounds together. Statistical data processing included the calculation of basic descriptive parameters: Arithmetic Mean (M), Standard Deviation (SD), Minimum (Min) and Maximum (Max) results. The distributions of the results were analyzed by the results of skewness (Sk), as a measure of the symmetry of the distribution and kurtosis (Ku), as a measure of the homogeneity of the distribution. The differences between the subsamples were determined by applying the T-test for independent samples. Inference was realized at the level of statistical significance p<0.05. The results of the study showed that time durations in each type of competition differs from each other in I and II subphases of the competition. The result showed that in international championships aerobic power of the athletes might be useful to win the contest. The results of the present study might be useful for coaches and judo athletes to plan their training design. Moreover, results would be clear indicator to better understanding of differences of energy demands of the judokas during the international and national championships.

 Abstract

In this modern age there is a rapid increase in the number of vehicles and so is the number of car theft attempts as well. With the growing and strong stealing techniques, owners are in fear of having their vehicles being stolen from common parking lot or from outside their home, thus the protection of vehicles from theft becomes important and crucial due to insecure environment. Real time vehicle security system based on computer vision provides a solution to this problem, many of recent vehicle security systems performs image processing based and real time user authentication using face detection and facial recognition techniques and run on microprocessor control system fixed on board with the vehicle or online application on the cloud. The system also adds an extra layer of security thru a custom authenticating driver list of the vehicle before it could even power up which offers a safe environment [1]. This paper is covering the design of an integrated anti-theft control system for an automobile that primarily based on an advanced communication technology identified as LTE. Integrating with GPS and GSM, the vehicle location will be located and tracked as well. In the event of theft attempt or unauthorized person�s trial to drive the vehicle, a text in format of Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS)/ Short Message Services (SMS) will be sent to the owner along with the location followed by a choice of actions such as tracking the vehicle, shutting it completely down, or locking all doors and calling the authorities [2]. This anti-theft control system could also be integrated the national Digitized ID card or UniCard as well.
