A statistical approach on experimental study for determining switching frequency of retro reflector sensor using PLC

Automation is a multidisciplinary platform that involves controls and drives. Though drives and controllers build automation together without sensors it is not possible. Sensors are the vital device that interacts with the physical environment and responds to the system in the form of input. These inputs are further processed based on the predetermined programming in controllers to give the respective output via drives. Industrial sensors are broadly classified as a retro-reflective sensor, capacitive sensor, photoelectric sensor, ultrasonic sensor, and a magnetic sensor. The reliability and switching frequency of the sensor is the key factor to determine the performance of the system. In this paper, a detailed study on one such key factor named switching frequency is taken for experimental study with retro-reflective sensors. The significant study of the switching frequency and the comparison of the performance the statistical methods like descriptive statistics, correlation, and chi-square test are used.

Importance of model studies in finalizing the hydraulic design of energy dissipator and plunge pool downstream of spillway- A case study

For a number of decades, the art of hydraulic modeling has been an important tool in solving complex hydraulic problems. It entails, with a degree of sophistication that varies with the objective of the investigation, the use of a scaled model for replicating flow and fluid transport processes in diverse natural flow systems and for evaluating the performance of hydraulic structures. A lack of understanding of physical processes or complex boundary conditions in many fluid mechanics/ hydraulics problems which are not amenable by numerical or analytical techniques is investigated by physical models. Physical model studies are indispensable tools to optimize various dam components and appurtenant structures. The present paper includes one case study of a dam project in which the importance of hydraulic model studies conducted on a 1:70 scale 3-D comprehensive model for evolving the hydraulic design of spillway, energy dissipator arrangement, and plunge pool downstream of the ski-jump bucket has been discussed.

The freedom of dark web: A digital scrutiny of terrorism on the dark web

The terms Deep Web, Deep Net, Invisible Web, or Dark Web allude to the substance on the World Wide Web that isn’t recorded by standard web indexes. One can depict the Internet as made out of layers: the “upper” layer, or the Surface Web, can without much of a stretch be gotten to by standard quests. Be that as it may, “further” layers, the substance of the Deep Web, have not been filed by customary web crawlers, for example, Google. Michael K. Bergman who composed the fundamental paper on the Deep Web, contrasted looking through the Internet with hauling a net over the outside of the sea: an extraordinary arrangement might be trapped in the net, however there is an abundance of data that is more profound and thusly missed[1]. Truth be told, a large portion of the Web’s data is covered far down on locales, and standard web indexes can’t get to it.

Hand gesture control used for automating human activities

Generally, we designed a real-time human-computer interaction system based on hand gestures. The whole system consists of three components: hand detection, gesture recognition, and human-computer interaction (HCI) based on recognition and realizes the robust control of mouse and keyboard events with higher accuracy of gesture recognition. Specifically, we use the convolutional neural network (CNN) to recognize gestures and makes it attainable to identify relatively complex gestures using only one cheap monocular camera. We introduce the Kalman filter to estimate the hand position based on which the mouse cursor control is realized in a stable and smooth way. During the HCI stage, we develop a simple strategy to avoid the false recognition caused by noises mostly transient, false gestures, and thus to improve the reliability of interaction. The developed system is highly extendable and can be used in human-robotic or other human-machine interaction scenarios with more complex command formats rather than just mouse and keyboard events.

Prediction and diagnosis of liver disease

India having a population of approx.1.3 Billion is the second most populated county in the world and each year millions are diagnosed with liver diseases. Some types of liver diseases are Jaundice, Hepatitis (A, B, C), Fatty Liver Diseases (FLD). These are caused due to consumption of alcohol, contaminated food, obesity, etc. For a common man, it is not practical to diagnose these diseases thus we need a system that is reliable and can predict the symptoms of liver disease. This system predicts liver disease using the patients' data and the Naïve Bayes algorithm.

Review Paper

Platform for patrons

Many of us feel that we can do a lot to help those in need. It can be to help people in poverty or for a cause. A lot of organizations are trying to help people in their own unique way amidst many problems they are facing. But there is a gap in this process where we, the people do not know or do not trust or to put it simply don't have enough proof that what we do will have an impact. The idea of helping others in a trustworthy, transparent and comfortable way with the tap of a button would help people take a step forward and make a difference
