 Abstract

Sudha Murthy's Gently Falls the Bakula is one of the finest novels. It depicts an Indian love marriage that falls because of rising materialistic desires and selfish interests. Murthy's first book, written over thirty years ago, remains strikingly pertinent in its examination of contemporary values and work principles. The purpose of this research paper is to describe the lives of the husband and wife. The female protagonist Shrimati battles to maintain her deteriorating consciousness and self-realization. Shrimati, a self-sacrificing loved one, becomes a similarly dedicated wife, but Shrikant, her husband, remains entirely focused on achieving his goal, not realizing his wife's role in his accomplishment. As determination and selfish goals take their toll, the relationship loses its way and the protagonist searches for identity.

 Abstract

Tradition and Modernity has been unobtrusively taken care of in the enormous work of English books in India. Tradition and Modernity is characterized as social, monetary and political developments that are engaged towards laying out social security and complete equity for the women. In Indian composing custom and innovation has been utilized as a humble endeavor for assessing the genuine social situation, all things considered. The Indian English authors utilize oriental methodologies of Tradition and Modernity. There are a few books in English writing of India that suitably depicts the real status of the women in Indian social orders. In any case, the advanced matured women have understood that they are similarly able like the men and those they are not vulnerable. The present research dwells into Tradition and Modernity in the works of Anita Nair and Namita Gokhale taken up for study in theme of tradition and modernity. Not at all like the previous when men were considered as the bread winner, in the present age, women also have become immediate employees in today's world.

 Abstract

This research delves into the historical archives documenting instances of famine-driven hardship in the Mysore region prior to 1924. It centres on the causes, repercussions, and the intricate network of strategies employed to mitigate these challenges. By utilizing a rich collection of detailed historical records, this study provides an insightful exploration into the factors that precipitated widespread famines, encompassing climatic elements, agricultural methodologies, and economic circumstances. The study meticulously traces the progression of approaches aimed at alleviating famine, starting from the inception of the initial Famine Code in the latter part of the 19th century, up to the advanced pre-famine preparations and relief initiatives of the early 20th century. Prominent themes examined in this research encompass the complexities of precipitation patterns, the susceptibility of agrarian economies to climatic fluctuations, and the ramifications of land fragmentation and labor dynamics in agriculture. The research also underscores the pivotal role played by irrigation infrastructure, railway networks, and other precautionary measures in lessening the impact of famines stemming from droughts. The discoveries made contribute to a holistic comprehension of how the historical administration in Mysore confronted famine emergencies. This offers valuable insights to scholars, policymakers, and researchers with an interest in comprehending the historical backdrop of food security, famine management, and socio-economic robustness. By scrutinizing the achievements and obstacles encountered in famine relief endeavours in Mysore, this investigation casts light on the evolving techniques utilized to address food scarcity. Furthermore, it emphasizes their relevance in the context of modern strategies for preventing famines and providing relief.

 Abstract

Fast implementations have formed the basis in a whole rare form of rising performance and fault acceptable circuits premised on approximation technology. High performance comes at the expense of accuracy in many applications. Additionally, such methods minimise system architectural complexity, latency, and power consumption. When compared to existing designs, this study investigates and proposes the design and analysis of an approximation compressor with reduced size, latency, and power and equivalent accuracy. The stated approximation 4: 2 compressor now has relatively small footprint, lower power losses, and reduced latency in comparison with precise 4: 2 compressor. With the optimized compressors, 8 bit and 16 bitDadda multipliers can be designed efficiently. In comparison to current approximation multipliers, these multipliers offer equivalent accuracy

 Abstract

Signature verification is a critical component of document authentication and fraud detection systems, with applications ranging from financial transactions to legal agreements. Traditional methods for verifying signatures often rely on manual inspection and feature engineering, making them susceptible to errors and time-consuming. In response to these challenges, this research presents an innovative approach that leverages deep learning techniques, specifically Siamese and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), to automate and enhance the accuracy of signature verification. The Siamese network architecture is employed to compute the similarity between two signature images, allowing for a precise determination of their authenticity. This network comprises identical subnetworks that share weights and are trained to extract discriminative features from input signatures. The Euclidean distance between the learned embeddings produced by these subnetworks serves as a measure of similarity, enabling reliable signature verification. Complementing the Siamese network, a CNN is employed to extract hierarchical features from signature images. This deep learning architecture includes convolutional and pooling layers, enabling automatic feature extraction. Extracted features are subsequently fed into fully connected layers for classification, providing an additional layer of verification. Experimental evaluations were conducted on two distinct datasets: the Cedar dataset, comprising genuine and forged signatures, and the ICDAR dataset for classification tasks. The results demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed approach. The Siamese network achieved an impressive accuracy of X% on the Cedar dataset, effectively distinguishing between genuine and forged signatures. Additionally, the CNN attained a validation accuracy of Y% on the ICDAR dataset, showcasing its ability to classify signatures as genuine or forged. In conclusion, this research offers a compelling solution for automated signature verification by combining Siamese and Convolutional Neural Networks. By addressing the limitations of traditional methods, our approach contributes to the field of document authentication, with the potential to enhance security and efficiency in various domains.

 Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to examine the difference between male and female partners in marital adjustment and to investigate the relationship between marital adjustment and trust among married couples. Purposive sampling method was used. The sample consisted of 50 married couples (50 males and 50 females) from the urban population who had been married for 5 to 10 years. The sample was interviewed using the "Marital Adjustment Questionnaire" by P. Kumar and K. Rohatangi and the "Confidence Scale" by Remple and Holmes. The collected data were evaluated and analysed using the t-test for independent samples and Pearsons correlation. The results showed that there was a significant positive correlation between marital adjustment and trust. However, there was no significant gender difference in the two variables. Quantitative research in the future would help to gain insight into the factors that influence trust in the marital relationship, which in turn may help professionals to raise awareness among married couples for better adjustment in married life.
