Consumerism

Post-WWI, the idea of consumerism emerged. Appliances that made the life of American housewives much simpler were introduced into society. These appliances were commonly known as ‘electric servants’ as they made everyday tasks easier and faster to finish. They included washing machines, vacuum cleaners, refrigerators that had freezers. Further, post the Great Depression and WWII, the living standards of the American people increased significantly as the US emerged as a powerful military force. Society became more affluent, suburban lifestyle and the middle class emerged. With this new inflow of income, there had to also be an outflow of this income. Americans became indulgent in material desire, spending most of their money on goods like televisions, cars, and home appliances – things that modernized their life. . Between 1945 and 1949, Americans purchased 20 million refrigerators, 21.4 million cars, and 5.5 million stoves, a trend that continued well into the 1950s.

Image classification

More than 25 % of the entire revenue in E-Commerce is attributed to apparel & accessories. A major problem they face is categorizing these apparel from just the images especially when the categories provided by the brands are inconsistent. There is potentially n number of categories in which a given image can be classified. Manually checking and classifying images is a very tedious process. The task becomes near impossible when we're faced with a massive number of images, say 10,000 or even 100,000. How useful would it be if we could automate this entire process and quickly label images per their corresponding class? We can solve this problem by implementing the image classification

Sri Lankan hybrid cultural remarks, revivals, and colonialism: based on Sri Lankan southern province temples’ murals

Sri Lanka has been an independent nation since ancient times. Historical sources attest to the fact that Sri Lanka was mainly inhabited by the Sinhala Buddhists and the Hindus under the political and economic conditions inherent in the country have changed due to the British occupation of the country. It had a profound effect on the cultural and religious conditions, especially the customs and traditions that promoted the local identity. It can be seen that the local people have been in a lot of trouble as upper-class people of this country who had worked with foreigners. The temple murals can be identified as an opportunity for the oppressed people of this country, led by the monks, to stand up against it, and through the visual media to show the oppression of the people and the catastrophic situation in the governing body. This research explores the challenges posed to the local culture through the art of temple murals. It will be very important to be able to control the present adverse conditions by finding solutions through history to the problems that are especially affecting the Buddhist Culture.

Training of a robot manipulator model by three reinforcement learning algorithms (TRPO, PPO2, and ACKTR), use cases, and comparative studies

A model of the manipulator robot is available. It presents properties necessary for its integration in a reinforcement learning loop. This is the subject of the article [1]. Three reinforcement learning algorithms are used, TRPO, PPO2, and ACKTR. The first two algorithms learn well, but for the third one, the reward curve fails to find an increasing variation. Rather an erratic variation is observed. Experiments or use cases of the policy functions in controlling the robot were carried out. It is ok for the first two. The robot moves and reaches the targets presented after some iteration. For ACKTR there is no complete convergence but an oscillation around a fixed position.

ph-metric studies of formation constants of the complexes of substituted thiazolyl Schiff’s bases with some lanthanide metal ions in 70% ethanol-water mixture

The Present work is undertaken to make a systematic solution study of the complex formation of La(III), Pr(III), and Sm (III) with 2-[3-(4-methoxy phenyl)-1-(4-phenyl-thiazol-2-ylimino)-allyl]-phenol. And 2-[3-phenyl-1-(4-phenyl-thiazol-2-ylimino)-allyl]-phenol. have been determined by the pH-metric method in media of 70% ethanol-water mixture at 0.1 M ionic strength and at (30 ± 0.1)oC temperature.

Redesigning rice cultivar (Oryza Sativa L.) Uma as saline tolerant cultivar through marker-assisted precision breeding

Rice is the only crop adaptable for cultivation in the marshy saline coastal agroecosystem. Salinity is the second major abiotic stress that limits rice production. The widely cultivated rice variety Uma in Kerala is the best yielder, but only having moderate tolerance to salinity due to partial introgression of Saltol QTL from Pokkali being the male parent of Uma. In this study, complete introgression of Saltol QTL was effected through a Marker Assisted Precision Breeding using the donor parent FL-478 and confirmed through genotyping and phenotyping. The gene sequence of polymorphic foreground marker SKC-10, the key marker for salinity tolerance, was introgressed into Uma, to tailor it into a saline tolerant variety. The background genome recovery of Saltol introgressed inbred lines of Uma was assessed using genome-wide polymorphic SSR markers between the parents covering all the 12 chromosomes. The aim of the present study was to improve the salinity tolerance level of the most popular elite rice cultivar Uma of Kerala by applying precision molecular breeding techniques.
