1. Fingerprint detection using enhanced minutiae singular point matching technique

Fingerprint matching is the procedure used to decide if two arrangements of unique finger impression edge detail originate from a similar finger. There exist numerous calculations that do unique mark coordinating from multiple points of view. A few techniques include coordinating details focuses between the two pictures, while others search for likenesses in the greater structure of the unique finger impression. In this proposed work, we propose a method for fingerprint matching based on singular point minutiae matching technique. The term "minutia" is used to refer to small ridge details found in fingerprints; most often, they are termed as main points described on ridge structures. Minutiae pi and qi are considered to coordinate if their traits are inside a certain Limit.

2. Experimental study on waste foundry sand and steel slag concrete

Generation of waste foundry sand as by-product of metal casting industries causes environmental problems because of its improper disposal. Thus, its usage in building material, construction and in other fields is essential for reduction of environmental problems. Similarly, in foundries (where the ferrous and non-ferrous metals are melted.), the slag is produced after the completion of the melting process it can also be used as a building material, construction and in other fields. This research is carried out to produce low-cost and eco-friendly concrete. This paper demonstrates the use of waste foundry sand as a partial replacement by fine aggregate and slag is as coarse aggregate in concrete. An experimental investigation is carried out on concrete containing waste foundry sand in the range of 0%, 20 %, 40% by weight and slag is fully replaced (100%) for M-25 grade concrete (OPC). The material was produced, tested and compared with conventional concrete in terms of workability and strength. These tests were carried on a standard cube of size 150mm×150mm×150mm for 7, 14 and 28 days to determine the mechanical properties of concrete.

7. Forward secure ID based ring signature for data sharing

Cloud computing provides services where one can access information from any place, from anywhere, at any time. So basically cloud computing is subscription based service where one can obtain network storage space and computer resources for data storage as well as data sharing. Due to high fame of cloud for data storage and sharing, a large number of participants gets attracted to it. The security is the biggest concern for the adoption of the cloud. The major issues in this regard are efficiency, data integrity, privacy, and authentication. In order to handle these issues concept of a ring, the signature has been introduced for data sharing amongst a large number of users. Ring signatures are used to provide user’s anonymity and signer’s privacy. But the expensive certificate verification within the ancient Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) setting becomes a bottleneck for this solution to be scalable. ID-based ring signature had been introduced which eliminates the process of certificate verification. Further enhancement of security with forwarding security concept has been introduced. According to this idea, if a secret key of any user has been compromised; all previously generated signatures that embrace this user still stay valid. This property is very vital to any giant scale knowledge sharing system because it is not possible to raise all knowledge data owners to re-authenticate their data whether or not a secret key of 1 single user has been compromised. Thus we propose a secure ID-based ring signature with forwarding security.

37. ATM- Security using machine learning technique in IoT

The idea of designing and implementation of the real-time ATM security project came with the incidents of accessing the ATM by the unauthorized users instead of an authorized user. This project will give access to the user only after identifying the image of the user taken by the CCTV in the ATM and compare the identified image with the image of the user that was stored in the database created during the account creation which comes under the banking session of banks. In some cases the authorized user is not able to use the ATM for some emergency purposes, in such cases, the OTP is sent to the users registered mobile number and the person who came instead of the authorized user have to enter the OTP that the authorized user received. This method will reduce the risk of ATM usage by common people. The face detection and face recognition are done using deep learning techniques and machine learning. The IOT components like Camera, RFID reader, Tag, Relay, Motor were used. The Raspberry pi 3 (2015 version) is used as the main component. Here the open CV is used as the platform and the python language is used for the deep learning techniques and face detection Haar cascade is used for face detection. The face recognition module is done by Local Binary Patterns (LBP) algorithm. And an alert message is sent to the authorized user as a text message if the user is found to be the third party user.

42. Patient health monitoring system

Health is one of the primary capabilities that a human need to go on with his life. That is the main reason the healthcare provided to the human must be bestowed in ample means and effective ways to ensure his health based on health monitoring parameters and the medical assistance being provided directly. The new technological development and its implementation now involve the internet and the sensors often known as the Internet of Things (IoT), which enables the worldwide approach to the health care base system development. This steers to the health system management that in a real-time approach it supplies a set of particulars relevant to the patient being monitored. In all the countries the death rates are becoming high due to the absence of well-timed medical treatments. These can be shut out through standard health care. The paper puts forward an IoT approach for a superior health monitoring system, by involving the sensors where they sense the body temperature plus the heartbeat and tells the doctor or the attending staff of the patient about the state of the patient. The project uses the KNN algorithm to predict the shape and condition of the sufferer to prevent them from going into further bad state. When the bad condition of the patient is predicted and detected by the system, it sends mail to the doctor in the most emergency situation or else in other cases it keeps on updating the sensed values in the web page created. The system also includes a buzzer beeping situation, where the beeping occurs when the nurse has to be notified of the state of the patient. Whereas, the previous systems developed did not do the predicting part, which plays the most important role in taking care of the patient. Thus, the project results in taking the greatest possible measure in helping the patients improve their situation.

44. Sensor design system and power adjustment of transmitter in FSO communication

The main problem related to FSO communication is atmospheric attenuation. To cope with such problem and maintain a dedicated connection, the transmitter power has to be adjusted continuously depending upon the weather condition of that particular time. Here we propose a design where we utilize the precipitation detection sensor and visibility sensor of ASOS. The weather conditions are detected using these sensors and some statistical data collected over time. Each condition provides some set of rules and equations which interlinks the power of receiver and transmitter. The transmitter if operated on such equation would yield the maximum efficiency. This results in power saving of the model. An automatic power device for FSO could be designed. In the below-discussed idea, we strictly restrict ourselves on atmospheric attenuation domain. Other factors like pointing Loss, Free space loss, Divergence loss are not taken into consideration. To take these issues into consideration, calculations have to be complex. While designing a real model, these factors would be taken as an important factor of attenuation too. Here Noise Equivalent Power and transmission power equation have been proposed which has visibility as a variable.

50. Weather adaptive traffic prediction and analysis of accidents using machine learning algorithms

Predicting traffic flow is one of the fundamental needs for comfortable travel, but this task is challenging in vehicular cyber-physical systems because of ever-increasing uncertain traffic big data. Although live data with outstanding performance recently have become popular, most existing models for traffic flow prediction are fully deterministic and shed no light on data uncertainty. Also, they are many inventories in automobile industries to design and build safety measures for automobiles, but traffic accidents are unavoidable. There is a huge number of accidents prevailing in all urban areas. In this study, a novel dynamic approach is proposed for predicting citywide traffic flow based on weather. The proposed system utilizes the neuro-wavelet algorithm to select the required features for traffic prediction. The system also proposes the K Nearest Neighbor algorithm to predict the accuracy of accidents occurred in urban regions.

51. Exploring the relative predictive efficiencies of spatial regression models

Spatial regression models are standard tools for analyzing data with spatial correlation. These models are broadly used in the social sciences for predicting the socio-economic factors. In this paper, we discuss about various spatial regression models and explain the concepts based on real data to demonstrate how to obtain and interpret relevant results. We describe prediction efficiencies of various predictors relative to the efficient minimum mean square error predictor in spatial models containing spatial lags in both the dependent variable and the error term. We consider Multiple Linear Regression Model (MLRM), Spatial Autoregressive Models (SAR), Spatial Autoregressive in the Error-term Model (SEM) and Spatial Durbin Models (SDMs) to estimate the literacy progress in the districts in Odisha as a result of changing socio-economic factors over time. The goodness of fit of the different models are compared along series of hypotheses about the performance of the specifications considering spatial relationships among the observations. The spatial analysis proved the existence of positive spatial autocorrelation and persistence of disparities in literacy attainment level across the regions during the analyzed period. The results of econometric analysis confirmed the expected positive impact of economic growth on literacy progress level as well as the necessity to incorporate the spatial dimension into the model.

54. Survey on generative adversarial networks

GAN stands for Generative Adversarial Networks.GANs are the most interesting topics in Deep Learning. The concept of GAN is introduced by Ian Good Fellow and his colleagues at the University of Montreal. The main architecture of GAN contains two parts: one is a Generator and the other is Discriminator. The name Adversarial stands for conflict and here the conflict is present between Generator and Discriminator. And hence the name adversarial comes to this concept. In this paper, the author has investigated different ways GAN’s are used in real time applications and what are the different types of GAN’s present.GAN’s are mainly important for generating new data from existing ones. As a machine learning model cannot work properly if the size of the dataset is small GAN’s are here to help to increase the size by creating new fake things from original ones.GAN’s are also used in creating images from the given words that are text-to-image conversion.GANs are also applied in image resolution, image translation and in many other scenarios. From this survey on GAN author aim to know what are the different applications of GAN that are present and their scope. The author has also aimed at knowing the different types of GAN’s available at present. The author has also aimed at knowing the different applications of GAN and different proposed systems by various authors.

Every college, university, school conduct exams and most important part of exams are the results. In order to get these results, the exam papers have to be evaluated one by one manually. This process of evaluating the exam papers is time-consuming and requires more manpower. To overcome this solution, we have come up with a thought that removes the manual evaluation process. Our project focuses on developing a system that evaluates an answer script against a pre-uploaded marking scheme. Initially, the answers are taken in digital format and those digital answers are processed using algorithms such as word2vec where the word’s similarity index is extracted and the words similar to it are noted. Using this we can also get the meaning of the paragraph and we can match it with the answer key and get the match percentage. Using this percentage, we can calculate the marks to be awarded.

56. Smart helmet to detect and prevent accident

The impact when a motorcyclist involves in a high-speed accident without wearing a helmet is very dangerous and can cause the fatality. Wearing a helmet can reduce shock from the impact and may save a life. There are many countries enforcing a regulation that requires the motorcycle's rider to wear a helmet when riding on their motorcycle, Malaysia is an example. A smart helmet is a special idea which makes motorcycle driving safer than before. This is implemented using GSM and GPS technology. The working of this smart helmet in IoT is very simple, vibration sensors are placed in different places of the helmet where the probability of hitting is more which are connected to microcontroller board. So when the rider crashes and the helmet hit the ground, these sensors sense and gives to the microcontroller board, then controller extract GPS data using the GPS module that is interfaced to it. When the data exceeds minimum stress limit then GSM module automatically sends the message to ambulance or family members.

61. Share market analysis for share selection using data mining technique

The share market has been a field of vast interest both for those who wish to make money by trading shares in the share market. Generally, there is an opinion about share markets like high risk and high returns. Even though we have a huge number of potential investors, only very few of them are invested in the share market. The main purpose is they are not able to take risk of taking the skill of investors. Though get low returns they want to save their money. One important reason for this problem is that they don’t have proper guidance for making their portfolio. In this paper we focus the real-world problem; we had selected three indices such as SENSEX, NIFTY. The analysis is purely based on the data collected from the past three years. The Data mining technique, Time series interpretation is applied for the Data analysis to show the ups and downs of a particular index. The correlation and Beta are the tools which give the suggestion about the share and its risk. The correlation tool is used to identify the relationship between the index and the company individually. This Beta is used to identify the risk associated with the share.

69. Bunch ensemble with averaged co-association matrix maximizing the expected margin

The problem considered is cluster analysis with the usage of the ensemble approach. The paper proposes a method for finding optimal weights for the averaged co-association matrix applied to the construction of the ensemble partition. The main idea is to find such weights for which the expectation of ensemble margin takes its maximum value. A latent variable pairwise classification model is used for determining margin characteristics dependent on cluster validity indices. To construct the ensemble partition, we apply a minimum spanning tree found on the averaged co-association matrix as an adjacency matrix. The efficiency of the method is confirmed by Monte-Carlo simulations with artificial data sets.

We present a new efficient approach for detecting tumor of cancer in the human body based on a recently published discrete orthonormal space-frequency transform known as the DOST. We develop a frequency-domain implementation of the DOST in two dimensions for the case of dyadic frequency sampling. This manual detection may have chances of false detection. So a computerized method for cancer detection is needed. A feature selection algorithm based on statistical two-sample t-test method is used for the selection of significant coefficients from the high dimensional DOST(Discrete Orthonormal Stockwell Transform) coefficients. The selected significant coefficients are used as features for the classification of human body tumor as benign or malignant.

This paper purposed an image based steganography that uses the Least Significant Bits (LSB) techniques and pseudo-random encoding technique on images to enhance the security of the communication. In the L-SB approach, the fundamental thought is to replace the Least Significant Bits (LSB) of the cover picture with the Bits of the messages to be covered up without pulverizing the property of the cover image significantly. The LSB-based method is the most difficult one as it is hard to separate between the cover-object and stego-object if few LSB bits of the cover are replaced. In Pseudo-Random technique, an arbitrary key is utilized as a seed for the Pseudo-Random Number Generator is required in the inserting procedure. Both the systems utilized a stego-key while installing messages inside the cover picture. By utilizing the key, the chance of getting attacked by the attacker is reduced.

81. Semantic text analysis using machine learning

As the amount of information on the World Wide Web grows, it becomes increasingly burdensome to and just what we want. While general-purpose search engines such as Ask.com and Bing high coverage, they often provide only low precision compared to others, even for detailed and relative queries. When we know that we want information about a certain type, or on a certain topic, a domain-specific search engine can be a powerful tool. Like www.campsearch.com allows complex queries over summer camps by age-group, size, location, and cost. Domain-specific search engines are becoming increasingly popular because they increase accuracy not possible with general, Web-wide search engines. Unfortunately, they are also burdensome and time-consuming to maintain. In this paper, we use machine learning techniques to greatly automate the creation and maintenance of domain-specific search. It describes new research in semi-supervised learning, text classification, and information extraction. We have built a demonstration system using these technics like Web Scrapping, Fuzzy C-Means and Hierarchy Clustering for a search engine which gives accurate results which is a more advantage when compared to other Search engines. Searching with a traditional, general purpose search engine would be extremely tedious or impossible to perform search operations. For this basis, domain-specific search engines are becoming popular. This article mainly concentrated on Project an effort to automate many aspects of creating and maintaining domain-specific search engines by using machine learning techniques. These techniques permit search engines to be created quickly with less effort and are suited for re-use across many domains.

The job of any marketer has less to do with designing attractive ads and more to do with understanding consumer behavior. It is said that people buy with emotions and justify it with logic, but this has proven to be true by neuromarketing research. Neuromarketing seeks to replace the traditional type of market research. Every year, nearly 450 billion dollars is invested in various advertising campaigns. still, traditional ways for testing and predicting the success and efficiency of those advertising campaigns have usually failed because they depend on customers’ willingness and capacity to describe how they react or feel when they are exposed to an advertisement.

88. A rule based sentiment analysis in Telugu

Sentimental Analysis in the English language is a relatively easier task to perform as it has a predefined set of rules followed and accepted universally. But, when it comes to Indian languages, there isn’t a benchmark dataset. Moreover, if a dataset exists, it cannot be validated as a similar sentence may differ in the meaning as the regional languages are very unpredictable and have no proper rules. In this paper, we used a Rule-Based Approach for Telugu sentiment analysis using Telugu SentiWordNet. Here, we obtained the sentiment using SentiWordNet and validated the results using ACTSA which is an annotated corpus data set.

89. A review on three-dimensional performance analysis of wavy fin tube heat exchangers in laminar flow regime

In recent years, thousands of numerical and experimental studies have been performed on heat exchangers with different configurations. Mainly heat transfer and frictional characteristics have been studied in detail with respect to different geometrical parameters in various ranges of Reynolds number. Further, these studies have been cross-verified with researches already performed in this field. With the advent of new tools like CFD for the study of thermo-hydraulic characteristics, it has become easier to understand flow phenomena around the tubes for different rows and also in rest of flow regions. These studies also bring about some correlations so as to easily find the values of colburn and friction factor for various different geometrical parameters so as to suit the different industrial conditions and requirements. An overview of the work already done on plate-fin heat exchangers is presented in this paper.

91. A review on thermodynamic analysis of organic Rankine cycle with different working fluids

The development of the world today has largely been achieved through the increasingly efficient and extensive use of various forms of energy. Over the past decades, the growth in energy consumption around the world has shown that fossil fuel energy source alone will not be capable of meeting future energy demands. With the increase in fossil fuel consumptions, more and more industrial activities produce an increasing amount of waste heat. Energy generated as a result of industrial activities that are not practically utilized is referred to as industrial waste heat. Several studies have shown that the specific amount of industrial waste heat is poorly measured, it is estimated that 25 to 55% of the input energy in industries are actually used while the remaining are discharged as waste heat.

94. Optical wireless data transmission with Vigenere cipher encryption

The project is designed to share data with high frequency. And ultimately establish communication as secure as possible. For secure communication, the data is send using encoded form so the unauthorized user can’t access the data and if he receive data then data will be in the encoded format. So it’s of no use to an unauthorized user. This paper is based on the concept of Li-fi. Here, transmitted data are encrypted by a Vigenere cipher algorithm in order to ensure secured optical communication. Further, the encrypted data is decrypted on the receiver portion. In today's digitalized era, for the proper functioning of our daily professional life, we need effective communication. Whereas the limitations like low bandwidth and data rate in Wi-Fi, Microwave and RF along with EMI interference hampers the interactions. The Optical Wireless Data Transmission overcomes the above limitations. This innovative and new technology provides high-speed wireless access that offers significantly greater data capacity than Wi-Fi along with inherent security properties that eliminate unwanted external network intrusion. For security purpose, a secured encryption system has been designed based on the Vigenere Cipher technique which is impossible to break. The project consists of an LED at the transmitter section to transmit encrypted data which can be received at the receiver using the IR sensor by any angle with high reliability. In addition, the integration of wireless data transfer along with encryption generates a measurable reduction in both infrastructure complexity and energy consumption

95. Three-dimensional performance analysis of wavy fin tube heat exchangers in laminar flow regime

The current study is focused on two fin configurations, the wavy-fin in-line and the wavy-fin staggered. These two fin configurations are numerically investigated in both staggered and in-lined tube layouts. Heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics of the heat exchanger are investigated for Reynolds numbers ranging from 200 to 2000. Model validation is carried out by comparing the simulated case friction factor (f) and Colburn factor (j) with the experimental data of Bhuiyan et al. [2013]. In this study the effect of geometrical parameters such as fin pitch, longitudinal pitch and transverse pitch of tube spacing are studied. Results are presented in the form of friction factor (f) and Colburn factor (j). This study reveals that the flow distinction between plain and wavy fin has a profound influence on the heat transfer and flow friction performance of these configurations when compared on the basis of tube layouts. For laminar flow conditions heat transfer and friction factor decrease with the increase of longitudinal and transverse pitches of tube spacing whereas they increase with fin pitches for both in-line and staggered configurations.

96. Thermodynamic analysis of organic Rankine cycle with different working fluids

An ORC is a suitable means of carrying out this purpose. The ORC works with a high molecular mass organic working fluid with the characteristic of having a phase change of liquid to vapor occurring at a temperature which is lower than the phase change of water to steam for a given pressure. The recovery of low-grade heat can be achieved using organic fluids. These low-grade heat sources can be from biomass energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, and industrial waste. This work presents an analysis of the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) using R143a, R600a, R134a, and RC318 as working fluids under constant external conditions. An EES program has been developed to parametrically compare the first and second law efficiencies and turbine size factor with an increase in turbine entry temperature, heat source temperature, turbine efficiency and pinch point temperature difference.

105. Qualitative data analysis on contextual advertisements

The internet advertising market is growing day by day much faster than any other advertising platform. The technology and methods used for advertising online go more and more towards automated processes that analyze the content of the page and then matches the ads with these parameters. Advertisers in web pages like Facebook and LinkedIn have some preferred set of users they wish to reach by showing their ads. Some sites offer fine-grained sets of user characteristics – including their career, wealth, education information, etc — that advertisers can specify for targeting their audience, and each of these characteristics requires different amounts of money for targeting. Generating contextual advertisements for websites is a problem of growing interest. The recent $240 million investment by Microsoft in Facebook clearly reaffirms the opportunity in contextual advertising for online social networks. Content-contextual advertisement programs such as Google AdSense and Yahoo Contextual Match work by automatically spotting keywords in web pages and displaying ads based on the keywords. The displayed ads are also referred to as Contextual Advertisements. Contextual advertising allows advertisers to display ads relevant to the content of the website rather than using the data about the visitor. Contextual ads can complement the content. Contextual ads are very effective for particular kinds of content. Some studies indicate they can increase click-through rate by 63%. These ads are generally represented by a URL along with a textual description that is also used to match the ad with the target page. User activity on venues such as forums, marketplaces, and groups on social networking sites are excellent targets for monetization.

112. Review on haze removal technique using advanced dark channel prior filter

This paper reviews and correlates various haze removal techniques to improve the atmospheric light estimation because the intensity of the dark channel is a rough approximation of the thickness of the haze. Images of outdoor scenes are usually degraded by the turbid medium (e.g., particles, water-droplets) in the atmosphere. Haze, fog, and smoke are such phenomena due to atmospheric absorption and scattering. The irradiance received by the camera from the scene point is attenuated along the line of sight. Furthermore, the incoming light is blended with the air light. The degraded images lose the contrast and color fidelity. In poor weather condition, fog removal from an image is an unavoidable problem. Various methods of fog removal have been described in literature. Initially, methods using multiple images which included the use of polarization filter. This method suffers from high time complexity and requirement of multiple images, resulting in non-suitability to real-time applications. This leads to the development of single image fog removal technique such as Dark Channel Prior (DCP), Improved Dark Channel Prior (IDCP), Dark channel prior with Histogram Specification, Anisotropic Diffusion and Improved Dark Channel Prior using Guided Filter. In proposed method, the dark channel is used to improve the atmospheric light estimation because the intensity of the dark channel is a rough approximation of the thickness of the haze. This property is used to estimate the transmission and the atmospheric light. A number of techniques has been proposed by various researchers to improve the atmospheric light estimation and to calculate air-light. The main intent of this review paper is to study and compare the distinct techniques of haze removal along with its drawbacks

113. Experimental investigation of clayey sand with plastic gunny bag as reinforcement

The soil which is generally weak and possesses high deformation values in vast areas are covered with soil deposits having low shear strength and high compressibility. Clayey sands (SC) mostly tend to exhibit high liquid limit (LL) and plastic limit (PL). The technique of combining any two materials of different strengths to form a composite single material of greater strength is the frequent procedure followed in civil engineering practice. The soil is quite good in compression and weak in tension can’t bear the load alone. When a material of high tensile strength is introduced in the soil as a reinforcing material, the soil turns into a composite material and tends to possess relatively very high strength and attains the ability to carry loads of heavyweights. Reinforced earth is a technique primarily used to increase the ease of construction and cost-effectiveness. Keeping in view the research findings outlined about, in the present experimentation, it was carried out to investigate the efficacy of plastic gunny bags stabilizing the weak soil, thereby, improving the shear strength and bearing capacity of the soil. A systematic methodical process followed involving experimentations in the laboratory under controlled conditions. It was observed that 1cm thickness and 0.03mm thickness of plastic gunny bags with clayey sand effectively improved the shear strength and bearing capacity of the soil.

114. Brake pad wear detection using machine learning

Most of the vehicles use a brake disk and brake pad system to stop the vehicle. Brake pad wear is a very important parameter in this system it has a direct effect on the braking performance of the vehicle. A machine learning approach, without using any intrinsic properties like the coefficient of friction of the brake pad material or the area of the brake pads or the composition of the brake pad material, has been proposed. The braking performance of the vehicle is reflected in its stopping distance and hence it is essential to relate the stopping distance and the brake pad wear.

117. Luminance-chrominance-gradient high dynamic range imaging with improved bitonic filter tone mapping technique

In this paper, we will discuss a new process for High-Dynamic-Range Imaging. In contrast to the traditional method, we are processing the High-Dynamic-Range imaging process in luminance-chrominance-gradient space rather than RGB space. The main motive is to get the more efficient technique and also to avoid color-distortion generating from three different color channels. We introduced a camera responsive function for luminance channel so that we can find out the HDR luminance. On the other hand, for chrominance channels, we introduced weighting in relation to the saturation level. Our technique produces more natural tone-mapped images with more information. Once the luminance, chrominance, and gradient values are extracted from the image, based on logarithmic of the luminance value, the tone mapping technique approximates the appearance of the HDR image. In local tone mapping, there is a detail loss, artifact and higher computation time because of the tone mapping technique. To increase the image quality and to increase the performance of tone mapping is the main idea of the research. Improved Bitonic Tone Mapping (IBTM) is a new technique proposed for efficient tone mapping. In this method, edges have high weights than flat surfaces and a weight factor is added to the bitonic filter. When compared to different tones mapping algorithms like Reinhard, Drago, Exposure, and Gamma, Local adoption etc. shows that from the proposed technique we can achieve higher performance.

119. IoT based crack and pollution detection using Raspberry pi

The IoT integrate heterogeneous end system, which provides open access to a large selected set of information for the advancement of digital service. To surveil the safety of high rise buildings and the small deform of surroundings by contaminants are a pivotal task. We should ensure the fire safety, safety from excessive loads, vibrations, etc…. and it is essential to observe the strength of the clear-cut constructions in the event of infrastructures and we should ensure the environmental changes around us because of natural changes in the habitat. In recent years, a major consideration should be given to framework health monitoring technology to Diagnose condition of the framework using a sensor attached to them, and the number of research projects on the health monitoring of architectural structures is on the rise. If life-cycle cost is to be reduced for the building from fabrication to sustainment, much attention should be given to strength of the building. The detecting issues on the crack and pollution in the buildings play a major role in our project. Cracks can significantly increase the rate of gas and liquid transport into a structure. Although there is a general awareness that cracking can be caused when the building is not that much strength to face external issues. The cause of the cracking is important as it may have profound implications on the crack morphology, which can greatly influence the relative contribution to transport and the subsequent impact on overall performance. Prevention is better than cure, we need to be alert before the pollution level crosses the safer limits and to monitor the building before the arrival of distracts.

122. Antibiotic Prophylaxis before dental procedures in patients at risk of Bacterial Endocarditis, a review article

Several studies show that dental procedures especially in case of gingivitis, peri-apical lesions and periodontitis with inflamed periodontal tissues or infected pocket epithelium surrounding the teeth may be a cause of bacterial invasion through the bloodstream and resulting in Infective endocarditis which is a severe disease that may affect the heart valves or the endocardium. The most common bacteria responsible for bacterial endocarditis are alpha-hemolytic streptococci like Streptococcus viridians but oral pathogens like Eikenella corrodens, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Capnocytophaga, and Lactobacillus species can cause bacterial endocarditis. In this review, we searched the United States National Library of Medicine at the National Institutes of Health (PubMed) to make out all articles that included the terms endocarditic, prophylaxis, oral or dental in the title. Several published sources of information relating to dental procedures, bacteremia, and infective endocarditis were reviewed. This review is focused on the patients that need prophylactic antibiotics and the recommended antibiotics for adults and children for dental procedures in which the prophylaxis is necessary. Antibiotic prophylaxis is indicated for patients with prosthetic cardiac valve, history of infective endocarditis, distinct Congenital Heart Diseases (CHD) and Cardiac transplant recipients with cardiac valvular disease. The most important pathogen responsible for endocarditis during dental procedures is S viridans (alpha-hemolytic streptococci). Antibiotic regimens for endocarditis prophylaxis are used against S viricians, and the recommended standard prophylactic regimen is a single dose of oral amoxicillin. For patients with high cardiac risk, antibiotic prophylaxis is recommended for all dental procedures like manipulation of gingival tissue or the periapical area of teeth or perforation of the oral mucosa.

129. Maximize lifetime of Wireless Sensor Network by optimal sink deployment and sensor to sink routing

Wireless sensor networks typically contain hundreds of sensors. The sensors collect data and relay it to sinks through single hop or multiple hop paths. Sink deployment significantly influences the performance of a network. Since the energy capacity of each sensor is limited, optimizing sink deployment and sensor-to-sink routing is crucial. In this paper, this problem is modeled as a mixed integer optimization problem. Then, a novel layer-based diffusion particle swarm optimization method is proposed to solve this large-scale optimization problem. In particular, two sensor-to-sink binding algorithms are combined as inner layer optimization to evaluate the fitness values of the solutions. Particle swarm optimization constitutes currently one of the most important routing algorithms. Its popularity has stimulated the emergence of various variants of swarm-inspired techniques, based in part on the concept of pairwise communication of numerous swarm members solving the optimization problem in hand. PSO is a population-based optimization method. PSO consists of a swarm of particles which move towards an optimal solution of the problem. Particle uses their position and velocities (P Best & G Best) to find an optimal route. This paper show better result of Maximizing lifetime of wireless sensor networking by using PSO routing Fully Informed Particle Swarm Optimization (FIPSO) and Diffusion PSO Performance of those algorithms is also evaluated over a set of benchmark instances Compared to existing methods that the sinks are selected from candidate positions, our method can achieve better performance since they can be placed freely within a geometrical plane. Several numerical examples are used to validate and demonstrate the performance of our method. The reported numerical results show that our method is superior to those existing. Furthermore, our method has good scalability which can be used to deploy a large-scale sensor network.

130. Bus tracking system using Android and web application

Transportation becomes very difficult in cities like Mumbai. The public transports, especially BUSES are developing around the globe. Such public transports reduce the usage of personal vehicles so reducing fuel consumption and mollifying traffic congestion. The problem with BUSES is that the commuters DO NOT know the exact temporal arrangement of the arrival of BUSES at their stops. This leads to looking ahead to BUSES for 30-35 minutes because the commuters are not aware of what time exactly the BUS is to arrive. The approximate arrival time of BUSES is known but there could also be a delay in arrival thanks to traffic. Seeing that people started avoiding public transports and started victimization non-public vehicles, many applications were developed; but these applications were unable to mitigate the problems. Some applications provided only the arrival time and point in time of BUSES at their supply and destination. Some of them provided time-tables, but even they weren't correct as they failed to contemplate the delay thanks to unpredictable factors like – traffic, harsh weather situation, etc. The timetables were not timely updated leading to waiting for BUSES.

131. Anomaly detection in code base

Any product when under development, goes through numerous changes before finally being released to the customer. While these changes are being done, it adds new features, modifies existing ones. How do we know if a product is in good shape to be released? Yes, we test the product, run the existing unit, functional, performance tests etc. What if the number of tests is in 10000s. How do we analyse each test result? Is there an automated way to detect the overall health of the product using the results of regression tests? Anomaly Detection using machine learning algorithms gives us a way to find out the overall health of the product. Using Anomaly Detection, we can quickly find out about the code base and if new changes should be allowed in before the existing code base is stabilized. It helps to determine, how far the existing code base is away from being released to the customer. It can help the code base to be almost always stable irrespective of the number of code changes that are merged into it.

135. 3D reconstruction of regular objects from multiple 2D images using a reference object

The dimensional analysis of an object from an image reduces a lot of burden for a user, like the traditional measuring tape method. Using the dimensions will make reconstruction of the 3D model of the real-time object easier. However, this method is not used in the current implementation. Dimensional analysis can also be helpful in online shopping where the user’s availability for fitting is not possible. 3D model replaces the fitting stage in online shopping. Once the dimensions of an object’s surface are found, it is easy to calculate surface areas, given surface areas we can calculate volume. But the calculation of volume requires more than one dimension of the object. In this paper, an approach using a reference object, whose real-time dimensions are already known is used. The whole process is divided into three tasks - Object detection using SURF algorithm, Dimensional Analysis of the 2D object using pixel per metric ratio given that there is a reference object on the same plane and 3D reconstruction using Structure from Motion algorithm.

136. Secure distributed cloud service using trusted third party

Cloud storage is a system with a distributed data center that takes advantage of virtualization technology and provides an interface for data storage. It makes servers or data centers able to work together for conveniently sharing and accessing resources. Enterprise cloud user demand that there is a secure supply chain and that every step in that supply chain can be verified in real-time and when things go wrong it is more possible to figure out what went wrong and that there is someone who can be held accountable. Before storing data to an untrusted cloud server, some measures should be adopted to guarantee the security of data. However, the communication overhead will increase when users transmit files encrypted by traditional encryption schemes. Remote data integrity checking enables a data storage server to prove to a verifier that it is actually storing a data owner’s data honestly. We use Hadoop file system to provide high throughput access to user data. If the semi-honest cloud server does not delete the data honestly and returns an incorrect deletion result, the misbehavior of the cloud server can be detected by the data owner with an overwhelming probability. The user cannot deny after requiring the cloud server to delete the data. This implies that the proposed scheme can support traceability.

147. Achieving secure file download by traffic and energy saving encrypted search technique and generate key image using BVCS

Cloud Computing is a model of Internet-based computing where resources like storage space, online software are provided by different cloud service providers to different types of cloud users who need cloud services. When a cloud user outsources the data on cloud, it has to provide more security for outsourced data preventing data manipulated or accessed by unauthorized users. To maintain data integrity, each and every cloud service has to be stored securely. For easier accessing of files and to generate file indexes, each file is stored in cloud server. Now cloud users search files and again send download request to cloud server. This process is time consuming and also there is a chance that the cloud service provider might access those files which is stored in the cloud server, because both the encrypted file with correspondent keys and file indexes are stored in cloud server. To overcome these problems, this system introduces storage nodes for storing file indexes and encrypted files and cloud server stores files keys. When a cloud user uploads file, the file index is generated automatically and file is encrypted by using AES algorithm with automatically generated key. After that by Visual cryptography scheme, the key is converted into image and then generated as key image and source images respectively. The encrypted file and the file indexes are stored in storage node, key and source image are stored in cloud server and key image is passed to file owner. Whenever file owner or file users want to download or access files then perform search and then put key image as an input. If valid, it matches the key with the source image and later it can be downloaded.

149. Design and analysis of velocity profile of air in engine inlet manifold

This project deals with the improvement of the performance and to achieve the even distribution of flow at each cylinder, to select the best turbulence model for the analysis of intake manifold using computational fluid dynamics, to achieve the maximum mass flow rate through the runners. To achieve the even flow of distribution and improve the volumetric efficiency, we divided his analysis into four different parts. In each part, a different iteration of inlet manifold used in Maruti Gypsy’s G13BB engine is used. In this analysis, plenum size is only changed in small values to show the effects of the shape of runners on output. Dividing the work into four different parts provide the greater refinement in the result. Runner shape is determined by the operating conditions of the engine assembly in which the inlet manifold is used. The intake runner diameter influences the point at which peak power is reached while the intake runner length will influence the amount of power available at high and low RPM. To find the best results, we perform the experiments in Ansys Fluent for possible designs and find the effect of curved and branched runners were providing higher volumetric efficiency and even flow of distribution to each cylinder. For designing final intake manifold we select the best design from all four parts and perform the experiment using computational fluid dynamics software Ansys Fluent. This project work brings the design concept and analysis method of “DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF VELOCITY PROFILE OF AIR IN ENGINE INLET MANIFOLD”.

159. Performance analysis of Vortex tube refrigeration system

This paper represents the experimentation of the Vortex Tube Refrigeration system. Vortex tube also known as Ranque-Hilsch Vortex tube. A Vortex Tube is a Mechanical Device, which generates cold and hot streams from a single injection of pressurized gas. Without any moving parts or chemical reaction within the tube, the intersecting phenomenon of energy separation results only from fluid dynamic effects. The Control valve is a screw located at the hot end and cold end with thread on it which is used to restrict the flow of air due to which the small forced vortex takes place after stagnation point and free vortex get away through the hot end as hot air and cold end as cold air. At the other end small orifice plate is located to further reduce the temperature Drop. The 2.5 HP compressor is used for experimentation for low pressures. Also, for higher pressures it is difficult with a low capacity compressor to get the accurate results. For this purpose, a model has been developed using experimental data to predict the results for the pressure range of 1to 6 bar. We have attached Thermo-electric module to system to generate electricity without affecting the efficiency of the system.

161. Particulate emission control and direct carbon dioxide capture

The atmosphere is one of the valuable resources which needs to be protected for future generation. It’s being increasingly polluted every year. In the past 10 years the air in the many regions of our country such as Delhi, Mumbai is seriously polluted. Due to modernization and development, the use of automobiles was increased which emit harmful exhaust toxic gases with particulate emission. The level of CO2 content in the atmosphere was increased up to 410 ppm. In the meantime, CO2 is also the raw products for many industries such as food processing industries, Pharmaceutical industries, fire extinguishers etc. We have conducted experiments to capture carbon dioxide from direct air. This process is carried out using a carbon absorbent solution made to react with atmospheric air in the reaction chamber in which carbon dioxide present in the air directly captured in the absorbent solution. Air is constituents of various gases. Here we discussed in capturing the carbon from the air. Direct air capture is leading technology to capture CO2 from the air. Here various concentrations of solutions are made to effective capture of carbon dioxide. In addition, Electrostatic precipitator is implemented to control the particulate emission. It holds the small micro dust particles up to 2.5 PM. The operation performs in controlling particulate and capturing carbon dioxide from the air.

163. Food adulteration prediction using data mining algorithms

Major food adulteration and contamination events seem to occur with some regularity, such as the widely publicized adulteration of milk products with melamine.With globalization and rapid distribution systems, these can have international impacts with far-reaching and sometimes lethal consequences. These events, though potentially global in the modern era, are in fact far from contemporary, and deliberate adulteration of food products is probably as old as the food processing and production systems themselves. This review first introduces some background into these practices, both historically and contemporary, before introducing a range of the technologies currently available for the detection of food adulteration and contamination. These methods include the vibrational spectroscopies: near-infrared, mid-infrared etc. This subject area is particularly relevant at this time, as it not only concerns the continuous engagement with food adulterers, but also more recent issues such as food security, bioterrorism, and climate change. It is hoped that this introductory overview acts as a springboard for researchers in science, technology, engineering, and industry, in this era of systems-level thinking and interdisciplinary approaches to new and contemporary problems. In food safety and regulation, there is a need for a system to be able to make predictions on which adulterants are likely to appear in which food products. The aim is to identify the minimum detectable limit for the adulterants in milk. There are many adulterants that are added to milk including water, flour, starch and even urea in quantitative measures making it undetectable. MATLAB was used to write the algorithm code.

172. Deposition of CaO (lime) on rocks near the temples submerged in the waters of Lonar crater, Maharashtra, India

At Lonar Crater on the northern side, near the water body, the base part of the temples submerged in the waters which were never exposed for the last 22 years due to constant rise of water level, are now exposed due to decrease of water level to a large extent, debris of rocks of unknown origin are found to be covered by a white layer. To investigate in detail whether the white layer on these rocks near the temples otherwise found to be submerged in the waters of Lonar crater and now exposed, are of SiO₂ (silica) origin or NaCl (common salt, sea salt) origin, or any other component, a search was conducted to find the source, its origin and the cause for these phenomena through this study. Representative samples of these rocks from debris near the temple towards north side of the crater was collected and stored in a polythene bag for further investigation. XRF analysis carried out of two rocks of both sides i.e., of sample No. 1, white layered part 16 elements with their oxides were detected of which CaO (Calcium Oxide i.e., quicklime) – 76.000% being the major content and others such as Fe₂O₃, SiO₂, Al₂O₃, MgO etc., in minor quantities. Similarly of sample No.2, the white layered part showed that 16 elements with their oxides were detected of which CaO – 85.900%, being the major content, and others such as SiO₂, MgO, Al₂O₃, SO₃, Fe₂O₃, P₂O₅ etc., in minor quantities. The original rocks i.e., the black part of both the samples showed that major component was SiO₂, Al₂O₃, Fe₂O₃, CaO, MgO, and TiO₂, with other components in minor quantities. For the first time such a high percentage of CaO (Calcium Oxide i.e., quicklime) has been detected which is found to be deposited on the surface of debris of rocks near the temples on the northern side of the crater. White rusting/white coating of SiO₂ (Silica) has been observed and reported by Jadhav and Mali. This work being of preliminary investigation, a search was conducted to know the cause and how CaO (Calcium Oxide i.e., quicklime) found in such a high percentage deposited on the rocks or the rocks were found to be coated or encapsulated by a white layer of CaO and to record and document this phenomena with detail studies.

180. Purification and properties of three novel monocot lectins from the family Zingiberaceae

Three new monocot lectins from the members of Zingiberaceae, namely, Alpinia galanga L. (AGTL), Curcuma amada Roxb. (CARL) and Elettaria cardamomum M. (ECSL) have been purified by sepharose and agarose affinity chromatography. These lectins possess similar physicochemical and biological properties. In SDS-PAGE, all the lectins gave a single band corresponding to a subunit of 16 and 17kDa and yielded single band peak on PAGE (pH 4.5). The lectins agglutinate rabbit and sheep red blood cells (RBCs) but are inactive towards chicken and human ABO erythrocytes. The haemagglutination activity of these lectins is inhibited by mannose and their derivatives while other simple sugars D-galactose, D-maltose, D-fructose, sucrose, lactose, D- sorbitol, D-mannitol did not react. The lectins activity were enhanced at acidic but stable at physiological pH range of 6- 8. Lectins were stable at 50°- 60° C but able to agglutinate for a short period when it increases.

185. Bioavailability enhancers: An overview

Oral absorption of the drug is a very important issue especially when the drug is poorly bioavailable, given for long periods and expensive. Poorly bioavailable drugs remain sub-therapeutic because a major portion of a dose never reaches the plasma or exerts its pharmacological effect unless and until very large doses are given which may also lead to serious side effects. Any significant improvement in bioavailability will result in lowering the dose or the dose frequency of that particular drug. Bioenhancers are chemical entities which promote and augment the bioavailability of the drugs which are mixed with them and do not exhibit a synergistic effect with the drug. The various bio enhancers available are piperine, garlic, Carum carvi, Cuminum cyminum, lysergol, naringin, quercetin, aziridine, glycyrrhizin, stevia, cow urine distillate ginger.

199. Identification of novel compounds to treat Alzheimer’s disease

Alzheimer’s disease or Alzheimer’s is a brain disorder characterized by progressive loss of neural functions and dementia in elderly people. It has perilous effects on memory and other cognitive activities. Apolipoprotein (APOE) is responsible for delivering cholesterol-rich lipoproteins to the bloodstream. The maintenance of optimum levels of cholesterol is absolutely necessary as an imbalance might lead to cardiovascular and neurological diseases. Out of the four alleles for the APOE gene, the main causative agent for the onset of Alzheimer’s is the e4 allele. APOE e4 allele leads to the production of amyloid plaques which further cause the accumulation of amyloid β peptide. The excess build-up of such toxic products leads to neuronal death giving rise to early symptoms of the disease. Our research mainly focuses on the identification of potential inhibitors against Sortilin (SORT1), an APOE receptor associated with Alzheimer’s. We have employed scientific software to identify the specific conformations of ligands that show the maximum interaction with the target compound and further analyzed these results by generating descriptors computationally for QSAR studies. The optimum model was generated with r2 = 0.794, s= 0.108. We have been able to select two ligands which can be used as potential drugs to treat Alzheimer’s.

201. Framework for enhancing privacy of files in web using random key generation technique

In general online websites contain millions of articles related to different domains. The major flaw found in these websites is the absence of security for files uploaded without any protection. It is made in such a way as it is simply available for any users to change the content of these files. Thus, to overcome the above drawback we propose the system “Framework for Enhancing Privacy of the Files in Web Using Random Key Generation Technique” which makes all the files protected using key generation and encryption techniques so that no other invalid user is allowed to access the file. Even the authorized user must request to the admin to get the key for the particular file from the database to access it. Thus the system provides secured data access with original information uploaded by the data owner, it also avoids the duplication of the same content from different users of the web.

202. Implementing Li-Fi protocols

LI-FI is the latest technology in the Field of wireless communication. Nowadays many people are using internet to fulfill most of their tasks through wired or wireless networks. As the number of users is increasing, the rate of data transmission in the wireless network automatically decreases. WI-FI provides us speeds near about 150mbps as per IEEE 802.11n but still it is not able to fulfill the requirement of the user because of such reason we are introducing the LI-FI. According to the German physicist Harald Hass, LI-FI provides much higher data transmission speeds (10gbps and max up to 224gbps per second) by using visible light. In this condition the LI-FI/WI-FI is analyzed. It’s the same idea band behind infrared remote controls but is more powerful. Haas says his invention, which he calls D-LIGHT, can produce data rates faster than our average broadband connection. Nowadays, parking vehicles is one of the most tedious jobs. Hence, in order to solve this problem, a reliable system is proposed. Our system solves the current parking problems by offering guaranteed parking reservations with the lowest possible cost and searching time for drivers and the highest revenue and resource utilization for parking managers.

212. Analysis and prevention of suicides using World Health Organization (WHO) data

Youth committing suicides is the major public health issue in the world. It is the third leading death reason in the United States of America for ages between 13-18. Many adults who have suicidal thoughts or make a decision of committing suicide plan never approach any professional for help or advise. Most of the cases, people attempting suicide don’t express it a lot in person due to the judgmental attitude of society. We have come with an idea of using WHO published data on suicide. With this we evaluate results to recognize and reduce the suicidal risk of the age group committing more suicides. We can use the same data to target the right audience through social media and campaigns to prevent it and reduce the cases. Linear regression and Random Forest algorithms are used which can predict the possible cases of suicides. We included a prediction algorithm called fbprophet. Once the analysis of the dataset is completed, we visualize the data and the group of audience committing more suicides will be targeted on social media. In the part of prevention, the audience is targeted on Facebook by using a parameter like the age, sex, and region. For this Facebook provides a paid medium through which we can provide awareness and motivation for targeted people.

213. Eliminating the redundant data for side channel in cloud

In recent years, the amount of data stored at the cloud storage is increasing rapidly due to the prevalence of data outsourcing. In order to be cost-effective and to reduce the bandwidth consumption, cloud stores use cross-user client-side data deduplication which eliminates the need to store redundant copies by keeping only a single copy of the data at the cloud storage. Cloud storage providers generally adopt data deduplication, a technique for eliminating redundant data by keeping only a single copy of a file, thus saving a considerable amount of storage and bandwidth. Even then, the attackers use many deduplication protocols to steal information. For example, an attacker can perform the duplicate check to verify whether a file (e.g., a pay slip, with a specific name and salary amount) is already stored (by someone else), hence breaching the user privacy.

217. E-Cycle

Nowadays personal and efficient modes of transportation used in India include bicycles, mopeds, and motorcycles. These mopeds and motorcycles tend to be more costly in terms of initial buying cost, ever-rising prices of fuels required for driving these vehicles & high maintenance costs. Also, the fossil fuel deposits are getting depleted day by day and it’s hard to find the new ones to replace them. Moreover, pollution due to these fuels is jeopardizing the environment continuously. On the other hand, the low buying cost and zero running cost of traditional bicycle sometimes tend to be inconceivable as lots of muscle power is wasted by rider propelling the pedals to rotate the driving rear wheel. Keeping all this in mind, we proposed a new way to cater to people as well as to provide a solution for environmental pollution. Thus Solar Energy is one of the freely available energy sources in nature which could be harnessed easily and converted to electrical energy using a low-cost mechanism such as solar panel and used for the purpose of instilling mobility. Hence, a Solar Powered Electric Bicycle is proposed over here. Our solar powered electric bicycle developed is driven by Brush-less DC motor. The solar panels mounted, on the bicycle, which will charge the battery, which in turn drive the motor.

225. Cloud based employee attendance management system using NFC and Face Recognition

For every organization, the attendance process is one of the important aspects to consider employee performance. Yet it is something that should be done swiftly and efficiently, without giving any effort into it. Manual attendance system could be time-consuming and error-prone, and other new system developed could prove to be complex and costly. Hence, the proposed system called as “Cloud-Based Employee Attendance Management System using NFC and Face Recognition” provides several important operations such as captured attendance records using NFC, automatic time calculation, leave and overtime checking, working hour’s evaluation, real-time updated information access, and generating reports. In order to add on to the security of genuine attendance tracking, facial recognition mechanism is embedded, so the system could not be fooled. An online portal is developed for managers to keep track of this process and manage employee attendance easily. The system can be used by any companies from small to medium size to implement cheap and efficient attendance tracking mechanism.

233. Factors to be considered for location selection for affordable housing

Due to the rise in population in metro cities, there has been a substantial rise in the demand for houses. This demand, however, is more from the service-going employees which majorly falls under lower and medium income group. To fulfill this increasing demand and meet these uprising challenges, affordable housing has more or less become the necessity of our developing country. Affordable housing is a challenge that many countries are currently dealing with. “Affordable housing refers to any housing that meets some form of affordability criterion, which could be income level of the family, size of the dwelling unit or affordability in terms of EMI size or a ratio of house price to annual income.” Along with constructing the right number of houses, constructing it within the right budget is also equally necessary. With an increase in the rate of land parcels in and around the metro cities, selection of appropriate land parcel plays an important role in keeping the project within the desired budget. Budget is the most crucial constraint of the project and not much buffer is available for the same. Undertaking an affordable housing project should be such that the profitability of the developer company is achieved as well as the financial needs of the consumer are complimented. It should be a win-win situation for both parties. To execute such a project, the location for the project should be well planned. This is especially important for targeting the pricing sensitivity to locational advantage. Selecting the appropriate location will solemnly solve the budgetary restriction for the developer and the tenements. In this research paper, we will discuss the factors to be considered while selecting an appropriate location to execute a successful affordable housing project.

243. Elimination of cylinder head valve guide wrong fitment

The Engine is powered by burning the air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber and the power is delivered to run the Vehicle. The mixture of air-fuel is required in the correct quantity to attain maximum efficiency. There are two valves present in the Engine cylinder head which is inlet and exhaust valve. This two valve will have different parameters, in which the exhaust valve is small and the inlet is big compared to the exhaust valve. Valve Guides and valve seats are very important for the continuous proper working of the inlet and exhaust valves. The valve guide is helpful for the valve to sit in the correct position with respect to the valve seat. Valve Guide is a cylindrical piece which is manually loaded in the machine and pressed into the cylinder head during the cylinder head machining process. Since the valve guide is inserted in the valve guide press machine manually there is a chance of inserting in the wrong direction inside the cylinder head. This problem leads to a drastic amount of scrap and increases in material cost. The solution to this problem can be solved by adding an airline and pressure sensor in the valve guide holder in valve guide press machine. This can eliminate the problem and also improves in the quality time and in the reduction of the amount of scrap.

252. Comparative study on the working of two non-governmental organizations in India – Make A Difference (MAD) and Latika Roy Foundation (LRF)

This review paper entails various details regarding a national level NGO (Make A Difference (MAD)) and a regional level NGO (Latika Roy Foundation (LRF)). A study regarding the individual structures and functions of these organizations has been done and suggestions as to how these two organizations can work in a coordinated manner have also been provided. MAD has a more macroscopic impact whereas LRF has a more microscopic impact. It is the amalgamation of these two impact levels which forms the foundation of the review paper. A macroscopic entity can have a more profound effect if it is enhanced microscopically, and a microscopic entity can have more outreach if provided with the required macroscopic resources. This is precisely the reason, for suggesting a coordinated helping system between a national level NGO and a regional or a state level NGO. Such a system is not only self-sustained but also mutually beneficial to the two organizations as explained earlier. Reasons for the selection of the said NGOs, their structures, recruitment processes, funding sources, and functioning have been covered in remarkable detail as well.

253. Design scheme for copyright management system based on digital watermarking and blockchain

In the past, traditional digital copyright protection system based on digital watermarking focused on implementation of watermarking text or image ignored the generation and storage of watermark information. In this paper, a new design scheme of a copyright management system based on digital watermarking and blockchain is proposed which combines digital watermarking, blockchain, perceptual hash function, Quick Response (QR) code, and Inter Planetary File System (IPFS). The blockchain is used to securely store watermark information that implements to provide a timestamp authentication. A perceptual hash function is used to generate a hash value based on the structure information of the watermark image can be confirmed without the original image. A QR code is used to generate a QR image containing image hash and copyright information of the owner. IPFS is used to store and distribute watermarked images without any centralized server and can reduce information-leakage, improves security and transparency of information to facilitate circulation in the network. Here we give BST to check the perceptual hash values to see whether the image is copyrighted or not.

254. Optimization of CNC turning process parameters for surface roughness of AA3003 using ANN Tool on MATLAB

The aim of the present research focuses on the prediction of machining parameters that improve the quality of the surface finish. The surface roughness is one of the important properties of workpiece quality in the CNC turning process. An effective approach of optimization techniques “ANN tool on MATLAB” and Response surface methodology has been implemented.T he factors investigated was spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut. The parameters that affect the turning operation are vibration, tool wear, surface roughness, etc. Among this surface roughness is an important factor that affects the quality of the manufacturing process. The main objective of this report is to predict the surface roughness on AA 3003, by optimizing the input parameters such as spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut by using carbide tool. A second order mathematical model is developed using “Taguchi method and optimization of surface roughness using ANN tool on MATLAB for response surface methodology.” The experimental results indicate that the proposed mathematical models suggested could adequately describe the performance indicators within the limits of the factors that are being investigated. The feed rate is the most significant factor that influences the surface roughness and however, there are other factors that provide secondary contributions to the performance indicators. Therefore, this study attempts the application of response surface methodology and “ANN tool on MATLAB” to find the optimal solution of the cutting conditions for giving the minimum value of surface roughness.

263. Design and fabrication of automatic and multifunctional pneumatic machine

A pneumatic machine is for sheet metal industry and can be made into multiple machines and should be used as “U” shaped clamp and also circle cutting cum straight cutting machine. This machine is simple to maintain easy to operate. Hence we tried out hands-on Pneumatic Shearing Machine In shearing operation as the punch descends upon the metal, the pressure exerted by the punch first cause the plastic deformation of the metal. Since the clearance between the punch and the die is very small, the plastic deformation takes place in a localized area and the metal adjacent to the cutting edges of the punch and die edges becomes highly stressed, which causes the fracture to start on both sides of the sheet as the deformation progresses. And the working of the pneumatic system depends upon air compressor, which converts mechanical energy into, pressure energy of compressed air. The compressed air should be proposed to move the piston of the pneumatic cylinder. The linear movement of the piston and piston rod can be used to get various mechanical operations like bending, cutting, punching, and hammering etc.

269. Disease detection using image processing

Malaria is a life-threatening disease which is caused by a Plasmodium parasite which is transmitted by infected mosquito’s bite. Similarly, Dengue fever is a very painful mosquito-borne disease caused by the dengue virus. Manual Detection of both of the diseases takes too much time and tropical and sub-tropical areas are experiencing these diseases at the high level and due to detection taking too long an automated system for detection of these diseases has become a need which consumes less time and cost. There are existing techniques for prediction of malaria using neural networks, multi-layer perceptron. Based on the survey in this paper we propose a system for prediction of malaria and dengue using image processing concepts such as segmentation techniques and morphological operations such as flood fill. In many laboratories, the blood cell count is done manually and needs to be done by an expert. This project uses a digital camera which works with a traditional microscope where the camera provides microscopic images to the computer. The proposed hardware is cost-efficient.

270. Nap detection and alert system using OpenCV

In recent years driver fatigue is one of the major causes of vehicle accidents in the world. A direct way of measuring driver fatigue is measuring the state of the driver i.e. drowsiness. So it is very important to detect the drowsiness of the driver to save life and property. This project is aimed towards developing a prototype of a drowsiness detection system. This system is a real-time system which captures image continuously and measures the state of the eye according to the specified algorithm and gives a warning if required. Though there are several methods for measuring the drowsiness, this approach is completely non-intrusive which does not affect the driver in any way, hence giving the exact condition of the driver. For detection of drowsiness eye aspect ratio value of the eye is considered. So when the closure of eye exceeds a certain amount then the driver is identified to be sleepy. Corrections for drowsiness include both in and out vehicle alarms and its repetition turns the engine off after giving a signal to the vehicles behind. We are also providing security for the owner i.e., if the vehicle is driven by another person and does any kind of suspicious activities then ,not the actual person but the owner will face problems, in order to avoid the problem for the owner, when the engine starts we automatically capture the image of the driver along with date and time without knowledge of the driver. Then he can easily identify the person who is driving and the owner will be saved.

275. Load rebalancing for distributed file systems in clouds

The key building blocks for cloud computing applications are Distributed File Systems which are based on the Map Reduce programming paradigm. Nodes simultaneously serve computing and storage functions In such file systems. A file is partitioned into a number of chunks allocated in distinct nodes in order so, over the nodes, MapReduce tasks can be performed in parallel. However, failure is the norm in a cloud computing environment. In the system, nodes may be either upgraded, or replaced, or added. Files can also be dynamically created, or deleted, and appended. Our algorithm is compared against a centralized approach in a production system and a competing distributed solution presented in the literature. The results indicate that our proposal is comparable with the existing centralized approach. It also considerably outperforms the prior distributed algorithm in terms of load imbalance factor, movement cost, and algorithmic overhead.

280. Implementation of TTL based packet marking for IPV4

There are more chances nowadays for a network to be attacked The common attacks are DoS and DDoS attacks. They are mainly responsible for causing disturbances for the network. There are so many mechanisms in preventing these attacks like packet marking. This packet marking is mainly used to find the source of an attack. While solving this process, the main problem is to minimize the number of IP packets used in the tracing of the attacks. The number of packets that are beginning from the individual sources is not adequate to trace back the aggressors and consequently, a proficient bundle checking plan is required in this unique circumstance. This paper focusses on finding the source of the attack using the less number of hops counts. For implementing this project we are mainly using NS2 and prove that it is more efficient than existing algorithms of finding the attacker.

287. An energy efficient approach for data aggregation in wireless sensor networks based on sink mobility

A network that does not include any central controller and allows nodes to enter or leave the network at any time is known as a wireless sensor network. There are very small sized nodes deployed in these networks in large areas. The energy consumption of the nodes in these networks is a major concern since it directly affects the lifetime of the network. These dead node cause several problems. To enhance the network lifetime mobile sink is introduced which improve network performance. But mobile also leads to another challenge such as mobile sink scheduling and (re)routing. The complete network is divided into fixed size clusters and based on the energy and distance, cluster heads are chosen from the clusters. The remaining nodes of the cluster are considered to be individual. Several clustering algorithms have been designed by researchers which can be broadly categorized based on the manner in which clusters are formed and the kinds of parameters included during the selection of cluster heads. This research focuses on aggregating the data from cluster heads by deploying multiple mobile sinks. The bee colony algorithm is used to make the base station mobile. The simulation of the proposed technique is performed in MATLAB and results are analyzed in terms of various parameters.

290. Enhanced fingerprint recognition and OTP to improve ATM Security

In the previous few years’ robberies of ATM is increasing and becoming a problem for Banks. In the current system, we operating ATM using a PIN number which can be stolen or guessed and can be hacked during the transaction. That raises a question on the present security and demands something new in the system which can provide the second level of security. So for that in this paper, there is added some extra security to the current ATM Systems. We use the fingerprint system and One Time Password (OTP) which is sent to the user registration mobile number through GSM Module system. After that, the user will be able to complete the transaction securely. The working of this ATM machine is when the customer places his finger on the fingerprint module when access it automatically generates different 4-digit code as a message every time to the mobile of the authorized customer through GSM modem which is connected to the microcontroller [1]. The code received by the customer should be entered by pressing the keys on the keypad provided. This proposal will go a long way to resolve the problem of bank account safety and transaction.

294. Motion and Bluetooth controlled office automation cum power saver

The Motion & Bluetooth Controlled Office Automation Cum Power Saver, where the lights in the room will automatically turn on upon detecting a human motion and stay turned on until the person has left the room or there is no motion. Initially, when there is no human movement, the PIR Sensor does not detect any person and its OUT pin stays LOW. When the person enters the room, the change in infrared radiation in the room is detected by the PIR Sensor. The output of the PIR Sensor becomes HIGH. Since the Data OUT of the Sensor is connected to Digital Pin 8 of Arduino, whenever it becomes HIGH, Arduino will activate the relay by making the relay pin LOW as the relay module is an active LOW module. This will turn the Light ON. The light stays turned ON as long as there is movement in front of the sensor. If the person takes a nap or leaves the room, the IR Radiation will become stable (there will be no change) and hence, the Data OUT of the PIR Sensor will become LOW. This, in turn, will make the Arduino turn OFF the relay (make the relay pin HIGH) and the room light will be turned OFF. Along with Motion controlled this system will have control in users hand on Android mobile; the user can turn ON/OFF Load in a single click. The Android application will help the user to monitor the current status of Motion Sensor as well as to update new Delay Time to keep the load on even there is no Motion. By using the Android application it will be possible for the user to say after what time the system will shut down the load. The system will start buzzing if time to Shut Down the load is less than 30 Sec.

304. Detection of spoofing attacks in network over IP calling

Detection of call is one of the key process this generation for customers to look over and find the details and information of the caller. It is easy to identify a caller by the method of caller detection. But the calls that come from an IP based computer system through a scheme of VoIP it is difficult to find or detect a call where mostly attackers use this kind of technique. This caller detection process is also used by many banks in order to take the confirmation of the customer. This detection can be done by using a smartphone by installing an appropriate application in the mobile or by using service providers that offer caller ID spoofing. The upgrade of old hardware is very costly, and there is no mechanism available to end users where there is no storage of information and it also very difficult to locate the physical location of the attacker. The main drawback is that it is more complex when it is considered in the real world. In this article, we consider an appropriate solution named as Passive IP Trace-back to overcome the challenges in deployment in caller id detection. PIT is a kind of technique where we can find out the history of the attacker through which we can consider that a specific person is trying to attack the victim. PIT exploits the path back-scatter messages to find the location of the attacker. The scheme of PIT is used as an efficient software for computers to validate their effectiveness in the detection of spoofing attacks.

Removal of efficiency was found to increase with increasing dosage of M.oleifera. The higher dosage was required to achieve equivalent residual hardness. Based on the results it is ascertained that seeds stored in dry containers at room temperature can be used as a coagulant for few years. Creation of awareness amongst the rural farmers on the usefulness of the M.olifera enables its cultivation which will have overall economic benefits to the entire country.

308. CFD analysis of heat transfer enhancement in double pipe heat exchanger using single and double triangular tape as inserts

The need to increase the thermal performance of heat transfer equipment (for instance, heat exchangers), thereby effecting energy, material, and cost savings, as well as a consequential mitigation of environmental degradation, has led to the development and use of many heat transfer enhancement techniques. These methods are referred to as augmentation or intensification techniques. This project deals with the analysis of heat transfer augmentation for fluid flowing through pipes using CFD. Using CFD codes for modeling the heat and fluid flow is an efficient tool for predicting equipment performance. CFD offers a convenient means to study the detailed flows and heat exchange processes, which take place inside the tube. Friction factor and Nusselt number for water flowing through the specified pipe were obtained first for the smooth pipe and then for the pipe with a single/double triangular tape insert in the Reynolds number range and Prandtl number. Calculated values (obtained from empirical equations available in literature) were compared with CFD values. Comparisons were also made between the smooth tube results and the single/double triangular tape results to establish the heat transfer augmentation due to the use of the insert. Simulations were carried out using commercial CFD software ANSYS.

310. Structural health monitoring

In the past decade, we have seen growing interest in SHM based on wireless sensor networks and the reason for this is the poor installation and expenses of maintenance. WSNs allow a deep deployment of measurement points on an existing structure, facilitating exact and fault-tolerant damage identification techniques without installing a fixed wired infrastructure. We provide a hierarchical decentralized SHM system that executes flexibility-based damage identification and localization. Flexibility-based methods exactly identify and localize damage on a wider range of structures than the previous System, by externally correlating data across various sensors. Our hierarchical system organizes nodes into clusters using a novel multilevel search approach that incrementally activates sensors in the damaged regions, allowing much of the network to remain asleep.

315. Video encryption and decryption using RSA algorithm

Information security has become the area of concern as a result of widespread use of communication medium over the internet. This paper focuses on the data security approach when combined with encryption and steganography techniques for secret communication by hiding it inside the multimedia files. The high results are achieved by providing the security to data before transmitting it over the internet. The files such as images, audio, the video contain a collection of bits that can be further translated into images, audio and video. The files composed of insignificant bits or unused areas which can be used for overwriting of other data. RSA (Rivest–Shamir–Adleman) is one of the first public-key cryptosystems and is widely used for secure data transmission. In such a cryptosystem, the encryption key is public and it is different from the decryption key which is kept secret (private). A user of RSA creates and then publishes a public key based on two large prime numbers, along with an auxiliary value. The prime numbers must be kept secret. Anyone can use the public key to encrypt a message, but with currently published methods, and if the public key is large enough, only someone with knowledge of the prime numbers can decode the message feasibly.

316. Need for ultra-high voltage power transmission in India

In recent days, the global scenario has been changed a lot and there is a tremendous development in every field particularly in the electrical field. If we don’t converge our innovative ideas for the development of new power technologies we may face a decreasing trend in the development of the power sector. The transmission of power with Ultra high voltage may be one excellent and efficient way of electricity transmission. The rapid growth in industrial sectors, the usage of Ultra High Voltage (UHV) is very much needed to meet the load demand. High voltage (HV) is the range between 66 kV and 400 kV, if the voltage is above 800 kV, it can be defined as UHV. With the advancement of new power technologies in the world, it could be seen that Japan, Russia, Italy, Brazil, America (U.S), and Canada began to improvise UHV technology in the 1960s and 1970s.nOver a century of power transmission evolution, research, engineering, construction, and operation of alternating current (AC) overhead power transmission lines of ever-growing rated voltages and development of substation apparatus for such lines made it possible to raise the transmission voltage from 10 kV to 1200 kV and the power transmission capacity from 180 kW to 5 GW, i. e. by four orders of magnitude. At present commercial AC transmission lines and networks of a medium, high, extra-high.

317. Design and simulation of the single phase Z-Source Inverter

Z-source converter overcomes the conceptual and theoretical barriers and limitations of the traditional voltage-source converter (abbreviated as V-source converter) and current-source converter (abbreviated as I-source converter) and provides a novel power conversion concept. The Z-source concept can be applied to all DC-to-AC, AC-to-DC, AC-to-AC, and DC-to-DC power conversion. Z – source inverters have been recently proposed as an alternative power conversion concept as they have both voltage buck and boost capabilities. These inverters use a unique impedance network, coupled between the power source and converter circuit, to provide both voltage buck and boost properties, which cannot be achieved with conventional voltage source and current source inverters. To facilitate understanding of Z – source inverter, this paper presents a detailed analysis, showing the design of impedance network, implementation of simple Boost control PWM technique and simulation of Z – source inverter for different values of modulation indices.

318. Pricing of cloud computing services

Pricing cloud computing has always been a big challenge not only to many Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) but also to many cloud consumers because of the exponential growth of new service features or characteristics appear almost daily. However, pricing of cloud services is a challenging task due to its services complexity and dynamic nature of the ever-changing environment. In this project, we propose a solution based on value-based pricing, which does not only consider how much does the service cost to a CSP but also how much a customer is willing to pay for the service. We demonstrate that the cloud extrinsic values would not only become one of the competitive advantages for CSPs to lead the cloud market but also increase the profit margin.

324. Twitter data analysis for Indian election

Social media use is at an all-time historic high for India, so we considered one popular social media platform, Twitter, and tried to see if we could predict how a group of people felt about an issue by only analyzing posts from social media. For our research, we looked at tweets that focused on the 2019 Indian Prime Minister Election. Using these tweets, we tried to find a correlation between a person’s tweets and whom he is going to vote. We wrote a program to collect tweets that mentioned one of the candidates, then developed a sentiment algorithm to see which candidate the tweet favored, or if it was neutral. After collecting the data from Twitter and comparing it to the results of the Electoral College, we found that Twitter sentiments corresponded with 73.8% of the actual outcome of the Electoral College. The overall sentiment of all tweets collected leaned more positively towards BJP than it did for Congress. Using the tweets that were collected, we also try to predict at how different geographical locations affected a candidate’s popularity.

334. Casting defects reduction in a foundry shop using DMAIC Technique

This work presents a systematic procedure to identify as well as to analyze major casting defects. Defects are responsible for time waste, money and eventually they affect productivity adversely. The defects need to be diagnosed correctly for appropriate remedial measures; otherwise, a new defect may get introduced. The proper classification and identification of a particular defect is the basic need to correct and control the quality of the casting. Keeping rejection to a bare minimum is essential to improve the yield and increase the effective capacity of the foundry unit and also improve productivity. Casting defect can negatively impact the bottom line of a foundry. A defect in a casting deteriorates casting surface quality and mechanical properties. It is responsible for loss of profitability, quality level and productivity of component. So it is preferably necessary to reduce it as much as possible by appropriate analysis. The present work is carried out in the foundry to minimize casting rejection due to a major defect. Quality analysis is carried out which includes the Root cause analysis to find out actual reasons behind occurring the blowholes. Quality control tools such as Pareto analysis, Cause, and Effect (Ishikawa) diagram, and Why-why analysis are used for analysis. Accordingly corrective actions and preventive measures are suggested and implemented.

336. A review on thermodynamic analysis and performance of SRC and ORC power generation systems using waste heat source

The development of the world today has largely been achieved through the increasingly efficient and extensive use of various forms of energy. Over the past decades, the growth in energy consumption around the world has shown that fossil fuel energy source alone will not be capable of meeting future energy demands. With the increase in fossil fuel consumptions, more and more industrial activities produce an increasing amount of waste heat. Energy generated as a result of industrial activities that are not practically utilized is referred to as industrial waste heat. Several studies have shown that the specific amount of industrial waste heat is poorly measured, it is estimated that 25 to 55% of the input energy in industries are actually used while the remaining are discharged as waste heat.

337. Implementation of automated wind power generation system on Indian highway

Wind energy has been the subject of research in the field of power generation. As the population increases and energy demand increases, renewable energy sources such as wind can be used to generate electricity with proper technology. To make the traditional method more efficient, i.e. Horizontal wind turbine axis, experimental research has shown that for low wind conditions vertical axis wind turbine can be used. The omnidirectional vertical axis wind turbine uses less space and higher power output. Since the rollers used in earlier models lead to a high loss of friction, we make use of magnetic levitation. We propose this design model with two steps, each with three blades in each stage. The blades are savonius type blades. Power generation is done using a pulley and belt system with the help of a DC motor.

338. Thermodynamic analysis and performance of SRC and ORC power generation systems using waste heat source

In this work mathematical models of Steam Rankine Cycle (SRC) and Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) power systems have been developed to explore the feasibility that combines the fluid-flow temperature, waste heat steam and low-boiling-point organic working fluids for power generation. The effects of the thermodynamic parameters on the SRC and ORC performance are examined. Among the commonly available working fluids, a selection based on environmental and technical criteria was carried out resulting in a list of 8 working fluids: R143a, R245fa, R600a, R124, R134a, RC318, R236fa, and Ammonia. Using the numerical models, we calculate and compare thermal efficiency, generating capacity, etc. of two power systems, namely SRC and ORC under the same heat source conditions. The results show that under the same condition of heat source, ORC has the highest thermal efficiency and power generation.

340. Structuring senses- The impact of design on human mind

Senses, the only information input media, play a mediating role between the built spaces and their experiences by the users. These spaces act as a stimulus on the senses of its users, the response to which is initially generated by the ‘non-conscious’ mind of the user; eventually leading to a like or dislike towards space. Architecture is all about experience created in a space, the look, feel and aesthetics; the success of which is measured by the time a user spends appreciating the space. Structuring senses, as the name puts forward, is a study that focuses upon the relationship between a space structure and its impact on the sensory media of the users, aiming to establish a balance and reduce the gap between the design intent and the design product. This declaration shall point towards an exchange of dialogue between a person and space.

342. Enhancement of throughput of DEEC routing protocol in WSN

A WSN is composed of a large number of sensor nodes which consist of sensing, data processing, and communication capabilities. Fault-free and trustworthy data transfer amongst source and destination is the challenges in WSN. The energy efficiency in WSN is a key essential element for improved communication. It is believed that 70% of the energy is used up in data transmission only. The lifespan of the WSN diminishes due to additional energy consumption. Routing protocols as long as providing an optimum data transmission route as of sensor nodes to sink node to save energy of nodes in the system network. Data collection shows a significant part in energy preservation of sensor network. In wireless sensor network energy is mostly used up for three purposes – signal processing, data transmission, and hardware operation. To make the most of the network lifespan data transmission is augmented by applying energy-efficient and reliable routing protocols. The protocols have more traffic overhead and more energy consumption. This thesis proposed enhanced energy efficiency in DEEC routing protocol. The experiment results represented that it also reduced the traffic of the WSN and increases the overall system performance.

343. Contamination of refrigerator is a threat for infections

Food that we eat may be perishable, semi-perishable and non-perishable. People generally use the refrigerator to store the perishable and semi-perishable food items. But during long time preservations without recalling may lead to the development of microbial contamination. Raw vegetables and fruits also play a major role in the spread of bacteria, fungi, and parasites. This may further lead to foodborne illness which is a threat to human infections. Cross contamination is also possible between the contaminated foods and fresh foods. Proper cleaning and maintenance reduce the bacteria as well as fungal load. Therefore, the monitoring of microbiota in the refrigerator is important for food safety.

345. Implementation of automatic solar tracking and cleaning system

With the growing requirement of electricity and concern for the environmental impact of fossil fuels, implementation of eco-friendly energy sources like solar power is rising. The solar PV modules are generally employed in dust environments which is the case in tropical countries like India. The dust gets accumulated on the front surface of the module and blocks incident light from the sun. The power output reduces as much as by 30% if the module is not cleaned for a month. Accumulation of dust on even one panel in an array reduces their efficiency in energy generation considerably and need to keep the panel surface as clean as possible. In this paper, we designed a system which not only tracks sun but also clean module automatically. This mechanism required an LDR for tracking the sun. While cleaning the solar panels, a mechanism consists of sliding brushes has been developed. In terms of daily energy generation, the present tracking -cum cleaning scheme provides about 30% more energy output as compared to the stationary PV module. This paper gives an idea about the combination of tracking and cleaning system.

346. Role of Benzydamine mouthwash in radiation induced oral mucositis- Single blind randomized control study

The aim of this paper is to determine the effect of Benzydamine in addition to normal saline mouthwash and compare it with normal saline mouthwash only, in reducing radiation/chemoirradiation induced oral mucositis in patients with Head and Neck malignancies. An open-label single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. Arm A - Radiotherapy/ Chemoirradiation who were randomized to receive Benzydamine mouth wash and normal saline mouth wash. Arm B - Radiotherapy/Chemoirradiation who were randomized to receive normal saline mouthwash only. Forty patients were accrued in the trial, 20 in the control arm and 20 in study arm. All patients completed the treatment protocol except 4 patients in the control group who discontinued treatment after 4 to 5 weeks. A number of patients in control vs. study arm of Chemo irradiation group were 14 vs. 13 and in Radiotherapy group 6 vs. 7 patients. The occurrence of Grade 3 mucositis was less in the control arm 30% vs. 40% but the onset was later among patients in the study arm (week 3). In the Chemo irradiation group requirement for analgesic (92.8% vs. 53.8%), topical anaesthetic (35.7% vs. 7.6% - significant), occurrence of mouth pain (28.5% vs. 15.3%) and Ryles tube feeding (28.5%vs15.3%) were less in the study arm and also tolerated more number of cycles of concurrent chemotherapy (76% vs. 14% p= 0.036). A number of patients having a break in treatment (0% vs. 42.8% -significant) and occurrence of oral thrush (16% vs. 28.5%) were more in study arm of Radiotherapy only group but the number of patients included was small (6 vs. 7). Nausea and vomiting was the predominant complaint in study arm probably induced by the study mouth wash. The occurrence of dryness of oral mucosa and throat was more in study arm of the chemo-irradiation group but less in radiotherapy only group. Overall the addition of Benzydamine mouth wash to normal saline mouthwash along with oral care protocol during treatment did not show significant benefit. But there seems to be some benefit with the use of study mouth wash in the chemo-irradiation group only. Since the sample size is small will need to do the study with larger numbers to document statistically significant benefit

347. Review on multi storey building foundation strength against various soil properties and seismic force

The foundation stability for different types of multi-storied building is becoming one of the most important areas of study since last few years. But unfortunately, there are many factors associated with the stability of the foundation are yet to be discovered. However it has been seen that many have attempted to establish the correlation between different coefficients and factors associated with beams and column failure, but only a few research works have been considered the failure against seismic force. There are only a few numbers of research evidence available which indicate that the analysis of the stability against seismic force is one the most important parameter in this regard. In this work, a detailed study related to the different factors associated with the building foundation as well as their effect and correlation with the seismic forces has been done. From the study, it has been found that the deep foundation provides better resistance than the shallow foundation against seismic force.

349. Richard Rorty’s criteria for progressive left

Richard Rorty’s progressive Left is the main political viewpoint that satisfies the criteria for any nation. It ingrains trust in the individual since it depicts a future that is the satisfaction of the ethical character of America. It is a future-arranged viewpoint yet does not endeavor to portray the methods through which the change will happen in extraordinary detail. The most essential part of the progressive Left is the trust an individual must have in his or her nation and what's to come. This is anything but a visually impaired trust, the kind that would make an individual fall into spectatorship and not want to play a participatory part, but rather the kind that makes an individual feel that his or her battles are not futile. Americans can't expect that their nation will fall flat at accomplishing its objectives. An admired future may not be accomplished in their lifetime, but rather they should at present have to trust that their relatives will have the capacity to live in an ethically impartial society. This paper will explore his four criteria for Progressive Left.

352. A study of mechanical properties of lightweight cement mortar

The present work contributes to the difference between mechanical properties of lightweight cement mortar by using common waste such as coconut shell powder, wood waste and sea shell powder as the partial replacement of sand. These waste material can be found easily and I tried to make better use of them in this present work. The mechanical properties conducted were workability, compressive strength test and split tensile strength test. The results were concluded by describing the best material for replacement of sand and its optimum quantity which is to be added to produce light weight cement mortar. Lightweight cement mortar can be used in cases of underwater construction, for better heat resistance, eco-friendly construction. In, by and large, the mortar is plastic liquid-like structure comprises of OPC cement or Ordinary Portland Cement, water and Fine aggregate. The common mortar can be used for masonry works in most of the cases. But to impart special characteristics to the common mortar we need to add some ingredients such as fly ash, rice husk ash, metakaolin, etc. So, in this present work, I used different waste material as partial replacement for the fine aggregate or sand.

353. Survey on color lines model for eliminating specular reflection

Detection of highlights is a prominent issue in computer vision, graphics. Many algorithms in image processing assume diffuse only reflections and deem specular reflections to be outliers. However, in the real world, the presence of specular reflections is inevitable since there are many dielectric inhomogeneous objects which have both diffuse and specular reflections. Hence, detection, and sometimes removal, of specular reflection (highlights) in an image may be critical. Proposed work takes help of global color-lines information to effectively recover specular and diffuse reflection. Our critical observation is that each image pixel lies along a color line in normalized RGB space and the different color lines meaning distinct diffuse chromaticities intersect at one point, known to be the illumination chromaticity. Pixels along the same color line, spread over the entire image and their distances to the illumination chromaticity give the number of specular reflection components. With such non-local overall information from these color lines, our method can effectively separate specular and diffuse reflection components in a pixel-wise way. We also present an efficient algorithm for complete removal of the highlights and it is suitable for real-time applications.

354. Analysis of water shortage in India

Climate change, water supply limits, and continued population growth have intensified the search for measures to conserve water in irrigated agriculture, the world’s largest water user. Policy measures that encourage adoption of water-conserving irrigation technologies are widely believed to make more water available for cities and the environment. At the time of Independence, i.e., in 1,947, the per capita accessibility of water in India was 6,008 cubic meters a year. It boiled down to 5,177 cubic meters a year in 1951 and to 1,820 cubic meters a year in 2001. As per midterm examination (MTA) of the tenth Plan, per capita accessibility of water is probably going to tumble down to 1,340 cubic meters in 2025 and 1,140 cubic meters in 2050. Nearly 40 percent of water demand in urban India is met by groundwater. So groundwater tables in most cities are falling at an alarming rate of 2-3 meters per year. Another factor is water leakage. This article analyses the distribution of water in the Indian subcontinent and how the Rainwater harvesting system has panned out so far in the Indian context. It focuses on the areas that need improvement and the consequences that follow if we humans don't stop the wastage of this precious commodity.

355. Shopping using NFC

The traditional system currently implemented for shopping at a retail store has been in place for a long time. However, it has its fair share of disadvantages associated with it. It requires the retail store to keep the products to be sold, ready on shelves to be picked up by the customer. This consumes a lot of space which gets overcrowded during sales and other offer periods. In addition to consumption of space, it also takes a lot of time for the cashier to scan the products and generate a bill which results in subsequent delay for other customers waiting in the queue. There is a need to find solutions to these problems and make shopping at a store a convenient option for users. To overcome these problems, we propose to use NFC (Near Field Communications) technology and improve the user’s shopping experience. NFC is a groundbreaking technology that works for short-range communication. NFC tags are available that can magnetically store data. To implement the system NFC tags will be placed in front of every product which can be scanned by the consumer’s mobile that must have NFC enabled. The tag can be placed in front of a sample product or an image depicting the product. The user must be connected to the internet to make use of this application. As soon as the consumer scans the tag all the details about the product will be added in the user’s cart. This will reduce the load on the cashier to scan every product to generate a bill, making the system more efficient and easy to use. There will be an android application for consumers. The store manager/admin will have the responsibility to manage (add/remove) products available for consumers to shop. A store admin can manipulate the data stored in the NFC tag. Admin will have a desktop website at his/her disposal to add information about the products available. Once the consumer registers for the shopping application he/she has to verify their account at admin’s desk. The admin has to add images, details, price, etc. of the product to be viewed by their consumers on their mobile application after the tag is scanned. This system will reduce the workforce required to maintain the products on the shelf. Hence the system will be cost effective and efficient for the store and convenient for the users.

358. A review on environment risk factor influencing scrub typhus

Scrub typhus is an acute febrile widespread disease in Asia & Pacific islands which causes unspecific symptoms & signs. This is one of the biggest diseases in our country especially in the Terai region and South India for many years. Scrub typhus, a dreaded disease in the pre-antibiotic era, is an important military disease which caused thousands of cases in the Far East during World War. It is a zoonosis and is a widespread disease in Asia and the Pacific Islands. Scrub typhus is an acute febrile illness which generally causes non-specific symptoms and signs. The clinical manifestations of this disease. Deaths are attributable to late presentation, delayed diagnosis, and drug resistance. The public health importance of this disease is underestimated because of difficulties with a clinical diagnosis and lack of laboratory methods in many geographical areas. Scrub typhus is known to occur all over India and physicians should be aware of this potentially serious but easily treatable disease. The aforesaid environmental factors affect the incidence and cause of Scrub typhus drastically as there is a high need to control this disease. So, a survey was conducted regarding this aspect.

359. Liver disease prediction using machine learning

Data Mining technologies have been widely used in the process of medical diagnosis and prognosis, extensively. These data mining techniques have been used to analyze a colossal amount of medical data. The steep increase in the rate of obesity and an unhealthy lifestyle eventually reflects the likelihood and the frequent occurrence of liver-related diseases in the mass. In this project, the patient data sets are analyzed for the predictability of the subject to have a liver disease based purely on a widely analyzed classification model. Since there are pre-existing processes to analyze the patient data and the classifier data, the more important facet here is to predict the same the conclusive result with a higher rate of accuracy. There are 5 distinct phases in this process. First, the min-max algorithm is applied to the original liver patient data set that could be collected from the UCI repository. In the second phase, significant attributes are demarcated by the use of PSO feature selection. This helps to bring out the subset of critical data, from the whole normalized datasets of liver patients. After this step, the third phase involves the usage of classification algorithms for comparative analysis and categorization. Accuracy Calculation is the fourth phase. It involves the usage of Root Mean Square value and a Root Error value. The fifth phase is the evaluation phase. Depending on the studies, a simple evaluation process is executed to preserve the integrity of a precise result reflection. J48 algorithm is considered to be a better performing algorithm when it comes to feature selection with an accuracy rate of 95.04%.

364. Application of Pareto Principle and Hartman's Principle for the safety issues in construction industries

The Pareto principle says that the for many events the 80% of the consequence is due to the 20% of the cause if we apply this to the safety and Identify the 20% of the causes we can reduce the potential accidents by 80% and this will automatically allow us to improve the safety performance in this way we used Pareto’s Principle. The problems identified must be solved but according to the effectiveness and the compatibility so now we use the Hartman’s principle of the Pareto’s priority index and find which safety issues must be addressed and solved with the immediate effect so that there increase in the quality of the safety in the industry. We selected the construction industries for the application of this principles as they are industries where we have many safety issues, ill-organized sector and the 11% of employment in India is in construction industry followed by the agriculture which is 53%. As India is the developing country and pushing toward the urbanization the employees in the agriculture sector are moving towards the construction or the manufacturing industries. In the last decade, there is a prominent increase in employees in the construction industries.

366. Design, development and fabrication of water pumping system using wind energy.

The project consists of designing, & testing the performance of a Lenz vertical axis wind turbine. Due to the increasing environmental & economic cost of fossil fuels, alternative sources of energy are needed. One such source is wind energy. Much of the current wind turbine research focuses on large scale wind turbine. An alternative approach is a small scale wind turbine design specifically to produce power at low wind speed Water is the primary source of life for mankind and one of the most basic necessities for rural development. The rural demand for water for crop irrigation and domestic water supplies is increasing. At the same time, rainfall is decreasing in many arid countries, so surface water is becoming scarce. Groundwater seems to be the only alternative to this dilemma, but the groundwater table is also decreasing, which makes traditional hand pumping and bucketing difficult. As these trends continue, mechanized water pumping will become the only reliable alternative for lifting water from the ground. Diesel, gasoline, and kerosene pumps (including windmills) have traditionally been used to pump water. However, reliable solar (photovoltaic [PV]) and wind turbine pumps are now emerging on the market and are rapidly becoming more attractive than the traditional power sources. These technologies, powered by renewable energy sources (solar and wind), are especially useful in remote locations where steady fuel supply is problematic and skilled maintenance personnel are scarce.

368. Food calorie estimation using machine learning and image processing

In today’s world a healthy lifestyle is a must for every individual and what they consume is of utmost importance in order to achieve the same. Our paper focuses on creating software which gives the calorie of the food which the user is going to consume. In order to achieve this, the software will take two images as input from the user, the top view and the side view. The image will have a probe object as well which is a coin whose volume will be known. The food item in the image will be detected with the help of Faster R-CNN algorithm. We are using Faster R-CNN algorithm since it is the fastest among all the object detection algorithms. In Faster R-CNN we don’t use selective search algorithm on the feature map to identify the region proposals, we use a separate network is used to predict the region proposals. This makes it the fastest algorithm and therefore it can be used for real-time object detection. In the next step, we will segment the image using grabcut algorithm. It is needed for foreground extraction with minimal user interaction. After segmentation of images, the volume of the food item is calculated using the known volume of the probe object. After the calculation of volume, the mass of the food item is calculated with the help of formulas and then the calories of the food item will be calculated using the relation between mass and calories.

375. Prediction model for brain tumor patients based on MRI images

The paper presented here describes the predicted survival time for brain tumor patients using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The accuracy is improved using the denoising wavelet transform (DWT) method. For this work BraTS, a dataset is used. MRI images are used to extract the histogram features so that the prediction model can be trained using the machine learning methods. MRI information is damaged due to the noise in MRI imaging. And the 2D wavelet transform was able to improve the results. The SVM with a 10 folds cross-validation helps to achieve the best accuracy by Daubechies 4 level 4 (db4-L4). With the same 10 folds, Daubechies 2 level 1 and 3 produces better results when the age factor is removed. An accuracy of 66.7% is achieved with a 10 % hold validation method in Daubechies 2 level 3.

The presence of water in the field appears to inhibit the growth of weeds, which are largely terrestrial or semi-aquatic species. The lack of retention of water in the Midland Laterite Hillock Paddy Field (MLHPF) favored the excess growth of weeds. But in the other two regions (ie FWPF and CPF), the weed growth was less because these regions were filled with water up to a certain extent during the southwest monsoon.

389. Noise reduction in electrocardiogram using LMS algorithm based on adaptive filtering

This project tells about the algorithms of adaptive filters which is for reduction of noise in these heat waves. There are different types of algorithms like NLMS, LMS, and RLS. In those types there are only LMS is used mostly for noise reducing because it produces low MMSE than all of those algorithms so for the best accuracy the LMS algorithm is used. By using mat lab we calculate the performance. The measures we calculated in mat lab is in range of convergence value and MMSE value. When we decrease the step size of noise will also decrease. If it is increased convergence value to increases, then the rate of noise also will increase.

390. A secure client side deduplication scheme in cloud storage environments

Freshly identified and endorsed the trend of holding cloud-based services for large scale content storage, processing, and distribution. Security is the top concerns for open cloud environments. Towards these security challenges, we propose and implement, on Open Stack Swift, a new client-side deduplication scheme for securely storing and sharing outsourced data via the public cloud. The originality of our proposal is twofold. First, it ensures better confidentiality towards unauthorized users. That is, every client computes a per data key to encrypt the data that he intends to store in the cloud. hence, data access is with the data owner. Second, by accessing rights in the metadata file, an authorized user can decipher an encrypted file only with his private key. It elaborates a computationally low-cost method for making all log entries generated prior to the logging machine's compromise impossible for the attacker to make an attempt and also impossible to undetectably modify or destroy.

391. An implementation framework for real-time spam detection in Twitter

With the expanded prominence of online informal community, spammers discover these stages effectively available to trap clients in noxious exercises by posting spam messages. In this work, we have taken the Twitter stage and performed spam tweets identification. To stop spammers, Google Safe Perusing and Twitter's BotMaker instruments identify and square spam tweets. These instruments can square noxious connections, anyway, they can't ensure the client continuously as ahead of schedule as could be expected under the circumstances. Along these lines, businesses and specialists have connected diverse ways to deal with make spam free informal community stage. Some of them are just founded on client-based highlights while others depend on tweet based highlights as it were. Nonetheless, there is no extensive arrangement that can solidify tweet's content data alongside the client based highlights. To illuminate this issue, we proposed a system which takes the client and tweet based highlights alongside the tweet content component to order the tweets. The advantage of utilizing tweet content element is that we can recognize the spam tweets regardless of whether the spammer makes another record which was unrealistic just with client and tweet based highlights. We have evaluated our solution with two different machine learning algorithms namely – Support Vector Machine and Random Forest. We are able to achieve an accuracy of 86.75% and surpassed the existing solution by approximately 17%.

392. A novel approach for indoor-outdoor scene classification using transfer learning

Scene understanding and analysis has gained significant importance and widely used in computer vision and robotics field. Classification of complex scenes in a real-time environment is a difficult task to solve. Convolution Neural Networks (CNNs) is a widely used deep learning technique for the image classification. But the training of CNNs is not an easy task since it requires large scale datasets for training. Also, the construction of CNN architecture from the scratch is a complex work. The best solution for this problem is employing transfer learning which gives desired result with small scale datasets. A novel approach of Alexnet based transfer learning method for classifying images into their classes has been proposed in this paper. We selected 12 classes from publicly available SUN397 dataset out of which 6 are indoor classes and the remaining 6 are outdoor classes. The model is trained with indoor and outdoor classes separately and the results are compared. From the experimental results we found that the model exhibited the accuracy of 92% for indoor classes and 98% for outdoor classes.

402. Dynamic spectrum sharing among the operators using AODV

Dynamic spectrum sharing aims to produce flexible spectrum usage and improve spectrum utilization with time. we have a tendency to propose two optimization models exploitation random optimization algorithms during which the secondary operator: 1) spends the stripped price to realize the target Grade of Service (GoS) assuming unrestricted budget or 2) gains the highest profit to realize the target GoS assuming restricted budget. we have a tendency to assume that there are spectrum resources accessible for secondary operators to borrow under merchant mode. Results obtained from every model are then compared with results derived from algorithms during which spectrum borrowings are random. Comparisons showed that the gain within the results obtained from our projected stochastic-optimization framework is considerably beyond heuristic counterparts. Second post-optimization performance analysis of the operators in the form of blocking probability in various scenarios is investigated to work out the probable performance gain and degradation of the secondary and primary operators, respectively.

405. A review on geopolymer using fly ash and GGBS

If we talk about today’s era, Concrete is the most important aspect in the present scenario in terms of construction. All the construction is being done with the help of this building material. Use of cement is rising on the peak from the last few decades due to the enormous demand for construction of megastructures all around the globe. In addition to that cement is the only material whose demand is increasing day by day in order to meet the needs of mankind. Subsequently, the price of cement is also increasing as its demand is increasing profoundly and also it available limited only. Manufacturing of cement results in the emission of CO2 and other gases which contribute to global warming and which further contribute to climate change and thus it is one of the most complicated material. Its use cannot be stopped but can be limited by using various materials. In order to dilute the use of cement, various alternatives and substitutes have been manufactured which is contributing to less pollution as compared to cement. Since cement cannot be fully replaced, it has been partially replaced with geopolymer using fly ash and GGBS.

407. An efficient approach for sarcasm detection in tweets using polarity flip

Sentiment analysis is the qualitative method that uses natural language processing, text analysis, and computational linguistics. The goal of sentiment analysis is to determine if a specific passage in the text shows positive, negative or neutral sentiment towards the subject. Social media platforms, like Twitter, offer a wide ability that allows users to express their thoughts by employing figurative language devices such as sarcasm to achieve different communication purposes. Dealing with such kind of content represents a big challenge for computational linguistics. Due to these difficulties and the inherently tricky nature of sarcasm, it is generally ignored during social network analysis. As a result, the outcome of such analysis is affected adversely. Also, nowadays, Customers use twitter as a platform to express their emotions and opinions about social issues, products or services. Lexicon based methods of text mining can at times fail to recognize sarcasm used by customers online. This has direct implications for companies using text mining on online content to identify new customers, address customer problems, and reduce customer turn rates or for any other CRM (Customer Relationship Management) activities. Thus, sarcasm detection poses to be one of the most critical problems which we need to overcome while trying to yield high accuracy insights from abundantly available data. This work considers sarcastic tweets (including those based on products) and proposes an effective approach to detect sarcasm. The system utilizes 21 features based on context, contrast, and emotions. The results show that sarcastic tweets inclined to have more polarity flips than Non-sarcastic tweets. Also, it is found that MLP and the Random Forest classifier tend to perform better than other classifiers with an accuracy of 94%.

408. Suicide terrorism – Physical and mental destruction

Suicide terrorism is a troublesome phenomenon for all of us, the masses, to conceptualize and to entirely understand. Its very presence appears to straightforwardly negate quite a bit of what we think about fundamental human survival impulses, which obviously has consequences for the mannerisms by which we look to gauge such elusive factors as radicalization and ideological duty. Our comprehension of suicide psychological warfare can likewise shift contingent upon whether it depends on the subjective examination of specific contextual investigations, some other experimental strategy, or assaults executed by explicit gatherings or sorts of gatherings, groups, mental institutions. Terrorist activities and government responses to them portray a strong and dynamic transaction, with the moves of one side affecting those of the other. As one model, if any terrorist organization attacks and a state sends in their arms and army as the power to send a rebuffing message back, the terrorists may utilize that activity to negatively persuade the commoners or the mob, resulting in turning the mob against the state. This is seen happening on the grounds of communal bias, power trip, inhumane methods of segregation from the nation which would only conclude in angering the civilians as well. Therefore, the findings would only address the terrorist activities and neglect the other end as that is something subject to the less important part of humanity and our community. Terrorism isn't legitimately characterized in all locales; the rules that do exist, in any case, by and large offer some normal components. Terrorism or lethal acts, to be psychological or physical violence include the utilization or danger of viciousness and looks to make fear, inside the immediate exploited people as well as among a wide gathering of people. How much it depends on dread recognizes fear based oppression from both traditional and guerrilla fighting. No doubt, customary military powers perpetually participate in fighting against the foe, their key methods for triumph is quality of arms. With the end goal to draw in and keep up the exposure important to produce across the board fear, terrorists must participate in progressively emotional, vicious, and prominent assaults. These have included hijackings, hostage takings, kidnappings, vehicle bombings, and, habitually, suicide bombings. Albeit, clearly arbitrary, the people in question and areas of fear-based terrorist groups or organizations assaults frequently are precisely chosen for their stun esteem. Schools, malls, transport and train stations, and eateries and dance club have been focused on both on the grounds that they pull in substantial groups and in light of the fact that they are places with which individuals from the non-military personnel populace are commonplace and in which they feel calm. The objective of terrorism, by and large, is to obliterate general society's feeling that all is well with the world in the spots most commonplace to them. Real targets some of the time additionally incorporate structures or different areas that are vital monetary or political images, for example, government offices or army bases.

410. Study on shrinkage properties of concrete with and without mineral admixtures

Structures that complied with code requirements still fail due to excessive cracking. Shrinkage is primarily responsible for such failures. Concrete shrinkage is of increasing concern when focusing on maintaining durable structures. Shrinkage in concrete can be broadly classified into two different stages, namely early age and later age. At early ages, the concrete is still moist and there are difficulties in measuring the fluid material. These difficulties have hindered comprehensive physical testing of shrinkage in plastic concrete. This project aims in evaluating the plastic shrinkage of different concrete mixes. Over time, the shrinkage induces cracking which can severely decrease concrete life expectancy. Such cracks can be mitigated by inclusion of materials such as synthetic fibers, shrinkage reducing admixtures, expansive agents and superabsorbent polymers. And the corresponding variation of compressive strength of these mixes is also studied.

414. Online terrorist detection system

Data mining is the extraction of pattern and knowledge from a large amount of data. This concept can be utilized in various real-life applications. One such congenial application is the online terrorist detection system. With expanding terrorist activities, it has turned out to be essential to control and stop its spread before a specific time. Internet is a noteworthy wellspring of spreading fear based oppression through videos and speeches. They use websites to mentally program people that would move vulnerable individuals to join terrorist associations. So here we propose an effective software to recognize such web properties and ban them naturally for human survival. In present situation utilization of the web is in the blast. Be that as it may, each coin has opposite sides, moreover, the utilization of web is valuable just as hurtful to individual. Late days numerous fear assaults were there on the net. Such fear related exercises are risky for people groups, association, and nations. The fear-based oppressor is utilizing the web to spread dread and structure psychological militant gatherings. By utilizing web they effectively do likewise. To trade data Internet foundation is utilized by various Terrorist cells and they enlist new individuals and supporters. To deal with such circumstance we propose a framework called ATDS.

417. Cost effective optical mark recognition software for educational institutions

Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) is a technology for effectively extracting data from filled-in fields or bubbles on printed forms. The current systems available for OMR are very expensive and they detect only a marking scheme. Moreover, the image processing techniques used for scanning the OMR sheet also consumes a lot of time and is quite complex, as it includes various restrictions related to the positioning of the sheet. In this paper, a solution to this problem is proposed, where an OMR system is developed using a scanner or a multifunctional printer as an input. The quality of the OMR sheet used in this system is low cost and easily available to any educational institution. The image processing techniques are implemented with the help of PyCharm IDE that not only helps to detect various marking schemes like bubble shape mark and tick mark but also verifies the answers in the sheet and displays the total marks obtained by the student, in a more efficient manner. In order to make the system user-friendly, the GUI of the system is improved and personalized by integrating an online website with the OMR software that displays the results of individual student.

422. Power generation through forging press

In the present scenario, the fossil fuel sources are depleting and their combustion products are causing global environmental problems. So it is inevitable to shift towards the use of renewable energy sources which in turn will reduce pollution and fossil fuels. For meeting the regular demand for energy we need to design a system such that electricity can be produced without destroying nature. Our projects attempt to show how energy can be taped and used at a commonly used machine, press machine and forging machine. The number of machines used in industries is increasing day by day. There is a possibility of utilizing the linear motion of ram or press to generate power by making the press machine as a power generation unit. The generated power can be used to light up nearby lights and fans around the machine. In the present work, a working model of the power generation unit is made. A similar model of the system has also been modeled in Pro-E. Design of each component is carried using standard procedure. The components are fabricated and finally assembled. The linear motion of the component is converted into rotary motion using the rack and pinion mechanism. The speed obtained is in turned amplified using a set of gears. This amplified speed is used to run an alternator to produce power. Theoretical calculations of power & practical power are compared in order to find the efficiency of the power generation used. The utilization of energy is an indication of the growth of the nation. This work utilizes one of the best sources of energy we get in our day today life.

425. Group messaging solution

In every organization, in order to work collaboratively, we need people who come up together and communicate so that they can express their ideas and share best thoughts and have good teamwork. In organizations, employees working on the same project may be residing in different places of the world to communicate, they need channels which can hold their confidential messages and also protect the messages from networking security threats. Currently, we have a number of messaging applications like Slack, Gmail, WhatsApp, etc. Prominently organizations use Gmail for emailing or their own mail sending services for communication. But for mail reception, we have a condition that mail receptor should know who has sent him mail. But there can be a condition in which someone might spoof, pretending to be someone. For organizations which to segregate authorities as senior and junior and communicate among each other, this kind of platform could be vulnerable. In current systems, hackers could even attach viruses and other malware to emails. If you want to send messages, you have to manually add the desired recipients. The project implements an application which would provide a way for communicating amongst teams and senior members of the team without hesitating and by implementing this project, members will also be able to put forward their views and points easily in front of the whole group members and senior authorities. Also, this project will make the communication effective which will, in turn, benefit the team and their work. Also, threat agents won’t be able to send malicious files as this will be the only message based and hence more secure. Also, it will have a news feed section where the latest news about the company will occur which will keep everyone informed about the current scenario and everyone will be on the same page. The project also aims to identify confidential message sent using this messenger so that the confidentiality remains intact and admin can manage and see which user is using the confidential words also by implementing this, spam and rumor detection can also be implemented.

430. A rare case of von Hippel Lindau disease

Von Hippel Lindau disease is a rare disease characterized by the formation of tumors, which may be cancerous or non- cancerous and fluid-filled sacs in different parts of the body like kidney, pancreas, genital tract. The incidence of the disease is estimated to be 1 in 36,000 individuals. VHL is a tumor suppressor gene, mutations in this gene lead to abnormal growth of cells forming tumors, cysts that are characteristic of Von Hippel Landau disease. Non-cancerous tumors called hemangioblastomas, which are growth made up of abnormally formed blood vessels are characteristic of this disease, which if develop in the brain, spinal cord causes headache, vomiting, weakness, ataxia and in the retina causes retinal hemangioma. People are also at risk of developing renal cell carcinoma, pheochromocytoma, and tumors in the inner ear. Being a multisystem disease, diagnosis is made by doing genetic testing, ultrasound abdomen, radiological examination like CT, MRI of various organs and treatment is by doing surgery which can be minimally invasive and laser surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy. We report a case of Von Hippel Lindau Disease. A 27-year-old lady presented with headache, 3-4 episodes of vomiting which was non-bilious, non-projectile in nature. She had one episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizure which was associated with rolling of eyes and frothing of mouth. USG abdomen revealed asymmetric pancreatic cyst, mass lesion in the superior pole of left kidney suggestive of renal cell carcinoma, as her father also died due to renal cell carcinoma. Radiology reports showed a well defined cystic lesion in the left cerebellar hemisphere suggestive of cerebellar hemangioblastoma for which craniectomy was done.

431. Criminal face recognition using video surveillance

Due to a rise in criminal activities, the identification of the criminals takes a lot of time even if the person is a recidivist. To identify and track missing or trafficked people the time taken to identify and save them may very well be greater before the person disappears again. To overcome this we propose a system that is highly reliable to recognize these people using face recognition techniques to recognize them anywhere in real time using CCTV or other video provided device so that actions could be taken more quickly. We move the whole system to the cloud so that the pictures of these individuals can be uploaded to train the face recognition model and can be used by many law agencies. The pictures can be uploaded from a local computer that is connected to the model on cloud and the database will be updated by adding the uploaded pictures. The processing also takes place in the cloud hence reduces the load on the local computer and only the results are sent back. Our proposed system yields much better processing and response speed and results in centralizing the whole data which can be updated and used by anyone without lowering the local systems performance.

441. Virtual doctor

The healthcare environment is still ‘information rich’ But ‘knowledge poor’. There is a wealth of data available within the health care systems. However, there is a lack of effective analysis tools to discover hidden relationships in data. The aim of this work is to design a GUI based Interface to enter the patient symptoms and predict which disease the patient is having using various machine learning algorithms. The prediction is performed from mining the patient’s symptom data or data repository. This paper has analyzed prediction systems for disease using more number of input attributes. The system uses medical terms such as fever, pain, cholesterol-like attributes to predict the likelihood of a patient getting a particular disease. Until now, over 100 attributes are used for prediction. The data mining classification techniques, namely Decision Trees, Naive Bayes, and Random Forest are analyzed on disease database. The performance of these techniques is compared, based on accuracy.

The aim of this paper was to develop and characterize chitosan nanoparticle as a carrier for adriamycin delivery as chitosan nanoparticles are the potential delivery system for hydrophilic drugs due to its outstanding physicochemical and biological properties. Chitosan nanoparticles have gained more attention as drug delivery carriers because of their better stability, low toxicity, simple and mild preparation method, and providing versatile routes of administration. Chitosan nanoparticles containing the anticancer drug adriamycin was prepared by the ionic gelation technique and characterized by various techniques such as particle size analysis, FT-IR and Atomic Force Microscopy. Results showed that chitosan nanoparticles prepared are of uniform size with an average diameter of 90 nm and zeta potential 62.5mV with a high encapsulation efficiency of 91.9%. Adriamycin loading efficiencies were determined and release studies were performed in PBS at room temperature. The drug release rate of Adriamycin from the chitosan nanoparticles was approximately 60% showing the potential of chitosan nanoparticles as a sustained drug delivery system. Cytotoxicity tests showed that the Adriamycin-loaded chitosan had higher cell toxicity by delivering the drug to the tumour tissues than adriamycin alone.

450. IoT based garbage monitoring system

A big challenge in the majority of cities all over India is that of waste management. The key issue in waste management is that the garbage bins at public places get overflowed well in advance before initiating the next cleaning process. Improper management of waste can be a major factor for environmental pollution resulting in several health issues. The traditional way of manually monitoring garbage bins is a cumbersome process and utilizes more human effort, time and cost which can easily be avoided with present technologies. In order to handle such issues, we propose an IOT based smart waste management system which checks the waste level over the dustbins by using sensors. The ultrasonic sensors are interfaced with Arduino Uno 3 Microcontroller to obtain and send the level of garbage to the server of concerned authority after waste is filled up to a particular level. Then authority can take required action by employing a worker to empty out the bins. So through this system, the real-time status of waste is monitored. Therefore one can ensure proper management of waste and this can be a step towards a quality environment which ultimately bodes well for human beings and other life-forms.

452. IoT based bridge monitoring system

A bridge monitoring system is significant to the structural health monitoring of both old/new bridges and flyovers an infrastructure daily used by citizens of their respective countries. The following report is proposed and developed as architecture for bridge monitoring on a more secure level taking into consideration the various parameters that are involved in the structural health of bridges. A 3-level distributed structure is adopted in the monitoring system, which includes a central server, intelligent acquisition node, and local controller. Acquisition nodes are located across the bridge. One local controller manages all the acquisition nodes. Every acquisition node has 8 channels, which can easily and approximately sample the deviation of the line of sight, the vibration of the bridge due to a load of various transports and as well the water level which when cross a threshold lead to a flood. To get high precision data, a 10 bits A/D converter is being used. Compared to the traditional method, the proposed architecture has two features. The acquisition node is a smart device based on a powerful controller. Signals of field sensors are analyzed and real-time compressed in the acquisition node. Only the processing results are sent to the local controller through the IEEE 802.11 wireless network. This operation can relieve the load of a central server. The intelligent monitoring system has run on a large span bridge. Running results show that the proposed system is stable and effective.

453. Smart trash bin for waste management using odor sensor based on IoT technology

IoT is transforming cities in a tremendous way. Efforts are made for having smarter ways of city waste management. Waste management always finds difficulty in knowing when to collect waste. If the vehicle comes to collect too early it would lead to unnecessary trips. And when comes to collect too late will result in an overflow of waste. Even though the level is moderate the odor produced by the waste can cause air pollution. These problems stated can be resolved using IoT technology used by this project. An app is designed to monitor the levels which the user can view. The workers need not want to approach the bin to know whether a waste is ready to be removed. Also, it is used to monitor whether the bin is not full and if not checks the smell of waste and then the bin can be removed.

455. Evaluation of three commercially available toothpaste/creams for resolution of white spot lesions – An in vitro study

White spot lesions are often seen on the teeth after orthodontic treatment, resulting in unpleasant esthetics. Despite many attempts at prevention of white spot lesions, its prevalence remains very high on debonding. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of 3 commercially available toothpaste/creams in the remineralization of white spot lesions. Materials and Methods: Hundred extracted premolars were selected as sample teeth. They were mounted into an acrylic resin block and randomly divided into four groups, consisting of 25 teeth each. Premolar brackets were bonded to facial surfaces. The specimens were color-coded with Yellow (Group-1), Red (Group-2), Green (Group-3) and Blue (Group-4). Sample teeth were exposed to demineralization solution for 14 days to produce white spot lesion. Visual verification of white spot lesions was done after 14 days on all sample teeth and brackets were debonded. The comparison between 4 groups: Artificial saliva (Group 1), Colgate PreviDent 5000 toothpaste (Group 2), GC Tooth mousse tooth crème (Group 3), Clinpro tooth crème (Group 4), were done at pre-treatment, 14-days after demineralization, 7-days after treatment, 14-days after treatment, 21-days after treatment and 28-days after treatment using Gloss meter and Surface Profilometer instrument. Results: The mean 28 days after treatment Gloss meter values for Group 1 (Artificial saliva) were 20.69±2.41 GU, for Group 2 (PreviDent 5000 toothpaste) were 21.70±2.06 GU, for Group 3 (Tooth mousse tooth crème) were 23.59±2.40 GU and for Group 4 (Clinpro tooth crème) were 22.56±2.98 GU respectively. And mean 28 days after treatment Profilometer values for Group 1 (Artificial saliva) were 1.84 ± 0.50µm, for Group 2 (PreviDent 5000 toothpaste) were 1.542 ± 0.33µm, for Group 3 (Tooth mousse tooth crème) were 1.254 ± 0.08µm and for Group 4 (Clinpro tooth crème) were 1.475 ± 0.20µm respectively. Conclusion: The result of the study indicated that Gc Tooth mousse tooth crème, PreviDent 5000 toothpaste, and Clinpro tooth crème have higher remineralization potential compared to Artificial saliva. Gc tooth mouse crème had the highest remineralization potential followed by Clinpro tooth crème and PreviDent 5000 in both Gloss meter test and Profilometer test. The increased efficiency of Tooth Mousse in remineralizing white spot lesion might be because of the combined effect of CPP –APP and fluoride which was not there in all other groups.

457. Designing a two-layer security algorithm for smart grid

Abstract Smart Grid (SG) is the next generation power grid which provides flexibility, reliability, and efficiency in generating, controlling, and distributing the electricity. The SG provides two-way communication between supplier and consumers and sensitive information is communicated on the network. The attackers try to steal this information to attack the grids and consumers for their benefits. Some of the most popular smart grid attacks are the key-based attack, data-based attack, impersonation-based attack, physical based attack. To overcome these issues, the cryptography algorithms and steganography algorithms are used. The cryptography algorithms are scrambled the message and transform into another form. The cryptography algorithms are categorized into two types. These are an asymmetric and asymmetric cipher. In the symmetric cipher same key is used for encryption/ decryption purposes. The symmetric cipher is further divided into types known as a block cipher and stream cipher. In the block cipher, the message is divided into fixed chucks and the same key, rounds are applied on each chuck. In the stream cipher, the plaintext and key bitwise XOR operation are performed. On the other hand, in asymmetric algorithms, two different keys are known as the public and the private key is used for encryption/ decryption purposes. In this thesis, a two-layer security algorithm is designed using lightweight cryptography and steganography algorithm which provide confidentiality as well as authentication. In which three algorithms are hybrid which includes PICO, Genetic Algorithm, and LSB algorithm. Initially, the secret data is encrypted using a lightweight PICO algorithm and initialization vector key is generated using a lightweight genetic algorithm. Further, the encrypted data is hidden in the image using the LSB algorithm. The proposed technique simulation results show that the proposed technique consume less memory, provide high avalanche effect and embedding capacity.
