 Abstract

This research paper attempts to have an ecological analysis on the relationship between the learning of language and the understanding of culture among Chinese college EFL learners. As an analytical research paper, it employs mainly three research methods including method of theoretical analysis, ecological analysis and comparative analysis to acquire a full understanding of the relationship between language and culture among Chinese college EFL learners from an ecological view. Through understanding the process from language learning to culture understanding, the author thus tries to show an ecological view of how the learning of language matters with the understanding of culture as well as the ecological significance reflected by the interaction between language learning and culture understanding among Chinese college EFL learners. With the help of an ecological view, this research paper also makes efforts to show how language learning, which is deeply rooted by the ecology of a natural environment, a humanistic community, a country and even a nation, promotes the development of culture understanding. Thus it is fully analyzed and concluded that there is a very close relationship between language learning and culture understanding, which is also an inseparable relationship. Overall, this research paper also interprets that language is not just a tool or carrier of culture. In fact, language is not only a cultural phenomenon, but also a living fossil of history and culture of a country and a nation as well as a special and comprehensive cultural combination and aggregation. An ecological analysis from language learning to culture understanding among Chinese college EFL learners will definitely help to comprehend such a fact that, on the one hand, language plays an irreplaceable role in cultural construction, inheritance, and communication between different cultures; on the other hand, different cultural characteristics often lead to different language characteristics.

ABSTRACT Background: Today's Filipinas have made their legacy in each of their endeavors. (Convergys Corp., 2018). For years, Filipina women have been considered people who stayed at home, namely, homemakers or those who cannot do masculine jobs. Method: This study is a qualitative research design, in which the method used to gather the data is by interviewing the participants selected by the researchers. The type of qualitative research used is a phenomenological approach. It is related to the central question "How do Filipina leaders employed in a Qatar-based company adapt to their work environment?". In line with our title, "Women Empowerment: A Study of the lived experiences of Filipina Leaders in the State of Qatar," the researchers chose Filipina leaders who are currently working and are employed in Qatar as their target respondents for the study. The conducting of this research follows the IMRAD format and aims to be published and reproduced easily. The researchers deemed the target respondents sufficient and knowledgeable for this study. As students currently studying in Philippine School Doha, the researchers' research will be respectfully conducted in the host country, Qatar. Findings have revealed that Filipina leaders have encountered many challenges and have shown the advantages and disadvantages of being a Filipina leader as discussed through work parity, work conformity, work impartiality, and work proclivity. Conclusion: Women 's leadership is about continuing to implement changes that promote women 's advancement within their organizations and businesses, resolve implicit bias problems, and inspire women and men to create solutions.

 Abstract

Urban Politics refers to the diverse political structure that occurs in urban regions where there is diversity in caste, religion and socio-economic status of people. The present study includes the structure of politics of a geographic space and spatial variations in voter�s choice. Delhi is one of the fastest growing cities in the world, it offers vast economic opportunities, education and medical facilities etc, has thus created very strong attractive force pulling migrants not only from the immediate neighborhood but also from the far-off places in the country. The phenomenal growth rate of the city has creates many developmental issues. This study tells us how urban politics and urban development are interconnected. The political skyline in Delhi saw dramatic changes since 2013 assembly election when Aam Adami Party came out as a second largest party and after that in 2015 and recently in 2020 it won maximum 62 seats and all the old National Parties like INC and BJP failed to attract voters. The recent election of Delhi was the best example where in many constituencies people cast their votes without keeping in mind the history of political parties, caste and religion of candidates.

 Abstract

Melanoma is considered a fatal type of skin cancer. However, it is sometimes hard to distinguish it from Nevus due to their identical visual appearance and symptoms. The mortality rate because of this disease is higher than all other skin related consolidated malignancies. The number of cases is growing amongst young people but if it is diagnosed at its earlier stage then the survival rates become very high. The cost and time required for the doctors to diagnose all patients for Melanoma are very high. In this work, we propose an intelligent system to detect and distinguish Melanoma from Nevus by using state of the art image processing techniques. At first, Gaussian Filter is used for removing noise from the skin lesion of the acquired images followed by the use of fuzzy c-mean clustering to segment out the lesion. A distinctive hybrid super feature vector is formed by the extraction of textural and color features from the lesion. Support Vector Machine (SVM) is utilized for the classification of skin cancer into melanoma and nevus. Our aim is to test the effectiveness of the proposed segmentation technique, extract the most suitable features and compare the classification results with the kNN techniques present in the literature. The proposed methodology is tested on DERMIS dataset.

 Abstract

The objective of this research is to develop a real-time system for hand gesture recognition that recognizes hand gestures, features of hands such as peak calculation and angle calculation, and then convert gesture images into text. To implement this system we use a sign language hand gesture dataset..The proposed system has four main modules such as preprocessing, segmentation, feature extraction, and classification. In the preprocessing module, the input image is converted into a grayscale image, noise removal, normalization, and rescale the image. After preprocessing, the image is segmented using an automatic threshold algorithm. Then the feature extraction is calculated using SIFT and SURF descriptors. The collected features are trained using an excel file. Finally, the input is classified using the SVM algorithm.
