 Abstract

Abstract Due to societal taboos, there continues to be intolerance and rejection of both lesbian and gay writing. The most obvious fact about the history of judicial formulation is that it codifies an intensely painful system of double binds, systematically oppressing gay people, identities and acts by undermining through contradictory constraints, on discourse the grounds of their very being. But there were certain clues in the Puranas that they enjoyed once some privileges in society. The present paper tries to analyse various narratives in literature in India and in Kerala to understand the queer identities vividly. It is an attempt to regain lost spaces of these people within the social space of Kerala.

 Abstract

This Project follows an interactive assistant which is accessible by authorized personnel using face recognition and performs the user requests, using this assistant we launched a poster with the help of IOT in which the system used register server module to connect with the node mcu to run the aurdino code which is connected with a DC motor to run the poster down. When this project is executed the assistant invokes and asks the name of the user, after that it asks the user for specific tasks, if the user gives any task it recognises with the help of GTTS package and performs given tasks. The assistant can perform two types of tasks. They are basic tasks and authorized tasks. if the user requests basic tasks it normally executes without any authorization. If the user requests authorized tasks then the assistant checks whether the user is authorized person or not, if yes it executes the request else it denies the access for the given task.

 Abstract

During the period preceding and ensuing the World War II, most of the common people felt oppressed either by the entire absence for all the human facets or by the strict ideologies included as principles to be practiced by the people. So, a lot of atrocious acts had been noted in Europe, USA, Japan, and Russia. A Suicide, undeniably, was spreading more especially in the poor communities. Therefore, there was a need to modify both the way of human conditions and the tyranny of the established organization. So, Albert Camus, the famous French philosophical essayist, novelist, and playwright exquisitely wrote his The Myth of Sisyphus, his splendid essay in which he apparently refused the concept of suicide to get an individual rid of his dilemmas insisting meanwhile on the absurd reasoning to deal with the possible ways of life. Thus, the human psyche suffered from a lot of plights as losing of its� identity, isolation, and the caged dream.

ABSTRACT: Now a days, people are more concerned with the environment change. Hence, they prefer environment friendly products. The present study is based on the behavior of consumers towards green products. To study this, a primary data set is taken. The data is collected through a questionnaire and the response of consumers of green product is collected to know their preference over the green products. The data is analysed in detail to describe the various statistical methods. The techniques used here are explained in detail. It is required to know the basics of the calculations if one wants to use these tools. From the data it is found that the consumers� preference does depend on many parameters. The tabular and graphical presentation of the data is employed to give the clear picture of the responses. The relationship between two parameters responsible for the preferences of people over green marketing is shown by contingency tables and appropriate hypothesis tests are used to study the relationship between variables. A detailed discussion is done in the paper.

 Abstract

for the last few years, text mining has been evolving and gathering revealing importance. The number of text documents in digital form is increasing and available to users through variety of sources like e-media, digital media and many more. Due to vast availability of text, a lot of unstructured data has been collected and converted into defined structured data. This process is known as text classification. High dimensionality of feature space is one of the problems in text classification. This is solved by feature selection and feature extraction methods and improves the performance of text classification. The feature extraction techniques remove the irrelevant and useless features from the text documents and reduce the dimensionality of feature space. This paper proposed a system for feature extraction and classification of text data. First features of text are extracted and then classified by classifier. The proposed solution is based on semi supervised learning. Datasets used for training and testing will be obtained from user feedback from different web sites. The results show that the proposed feature extraction and classification approach is simple, computationally tractable, and achieves low error rates.

 Abstract

This is a coin based flexible charging structure that charges the convenient for a particular proportion of time on expansion of coin. The structure can be used by retailers and open spots like railroad stations, etc., to give compact charging office. Thusly, the system involves a coin affirmation module that sees the inserted coin and a while later shows the scaled down scale controller for extra action. By then the controller starts the convenient charging framework giving deftly through sun arranged board to a hand-off contact the to the PDA. The objective of this errand is embedding�s the coin and charging the mobile phone. This endeavor is extraordinarily significant to the people who are generally using PDA without charging office out in the open spots. A sensor system is used to perceive the closeness of coin that is arranged using IR sensor. The coin is implanted between the IR transmitter and recipient. Exactly when the IR signal is thwarted by the coin, the IR sensor offers a basis hint to the controller by which the controller orders the charging unit by giving deftly (ie. from sun based load up) for a predefined time (60sec). After that it will be confined. If another coin is inserted, the time term will be extended normally. The driver circuit is arranged using hand-off to give the deftly to the charger to charge the compact.

 Abstract

Steel-concrete composite columns are used widely in modern buildings. Extensive research on steel concrete composite columns in which structural steel sections are encased in concrete have been carried out. In-filled composite columns, however have received limited attention compared to encased columns. This paper includes the review done on steel columns in which concrete are in-filled. Wire mesh is welded on the inside surface of steel column to increase the bond between steel and concrete. Three composite columns (short columns) are compared with three RC columns of same size. Ultimate strength, ductility, energy absorption capacity and stiffness of columns are noted. It is observed that composite columns show better structural behavior than RC columns.

 Abstract

Food allergy (FA) is one of the most common health problems worldwide and immunologically it has many aspects to be studied. Mechanism of Tolerance and Sensitization against food antigens are the main factors studied under the immunological basis of allergy. A better understanding of these responses is vital for development of new therapies. In this review, we have focused on the prominent types of FA and its immunological mechanisms along with a statistical comparison of these allergies. Most of the types of food allergies are IgE mediated and is also the main cause of anaphylaxis, diagnosis of which is by careful analysis of history and diagnostic tests, such as skin prick tests, serum-specific IgE and, if indicated, an oral food challenge. Once the allergen is identified, strict elimination of the offending food allergens from the diet is necessary, followed by identification of cross reactive food materials. This report emphasis on allergens from peanut, wheat, cow milk, soy, egg and shellfish; and their pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management.

 Abstract

Buddhism is a way of life. It is beyond philosophy, religion, psychology, metaphysics. It is based on cause and effect. It is time-tested, universal and priceless doctrines available even today to test and accept. Buddhism is not based on belief and faith and is based on one�s own understanding and experience. The individuals in the world are bothered by impurities of mind. All inherent problems are because of defilements in the mind. This paper is based on survey and empirical research conducted in Bangalore and Myanmar. The total sample size of respondents was 461 consisting of Buddhist monks, nuns, lay-men and women devotees in Dhamma dispensation. The impact is elicited before and after practicing of Three Fold Training by the sample respondents. Gauthama Buddha through his discoveries has given to the mankind the four noble truths and the noble eight fold path. The three fold training is for purifying beings through practical approach of practicing five moral precepts, concentration and wisdom. It is a gradual process and a step-by step process to deliver the mind from defilements, craving and ignorance. The paper traces out how three fold training metamorphosed the practitioners under the study into positive cultivation of mind and eradicating and conquering their defilements to a great extent. The study was conducted in Bangalore and Myanmar. In the aftermath of three fold training, the participants� personal excellence, inter-personal relation excellence and professional excellence have increased. Their social transactions are very calm, quiet and beneficial on account of undergoing Buddha�s three fold training in morality, concentration and wisdom.

 Abstract

Every wheelchair is manually operated to move in and around. However, a smart wheelchair brings independence and effortlessness to a person. A Smart Wheel Chair is mechanically controlled devices designed to have self-mobility with the help of the user command using head/hand effortlessly. This reduces the user�s effort to drive the wheels of the wheelchair. Furthermore, this provides an opportunity for visually or physically impaired persons to move from one place to another. Even though a persons� the body is fully or partially paralyzed only his head/hand movement will help the wheelchair to move front, back, left, right. There is wireless communication between the human and the wheelchair. The equipment is kept on his head/ in his hand which detects the movement of the person. If the device finds the swing of the head front then the chair moves forward automatically. The procedure is similar to the other directions such as left, right, backward. If the head is still without any swing then it is considered as a stop. The operation of the experimental model of our device is based on pairing the Bluetooth of the mobile to the Bluetooth module placed in the wheelchair. The Arduino blue control app acts as an intermediate to find the movement of the human and the Arduino uno helps in assisting the Bluetooth and wheels movement according to the code. The L-298 in between the Arduino and wheels helps in converting the voltage that is required for wheels movement.

 Abstract

Hand gesture recognition provides an intelligence and natural way of interaction between human and computer i.e., HCI. The main goal of hand gesture recognition is to create a system which can identify the specific gestures of human and make use of them to convey information for control the device. Vision-based hand gesture recognition is considered to be more feasible for HCI in the field of computer vision and pattern recognition with the help of latest advances. The project deals with various techniques, methods and algorithms related to the gesture recognition. Hand gesture recognition has the advantage to communicate with the system through basic gesture language. Edge detection is the most commonly used technique in image analysis, and there are more algorithms to enhance and detect the edges. An edge is defined as the boundary between an object and the background, and it also indicates the boundary between overlapped objects. The threshold boundary is used for detecting hand and gestures of user very faster. Based on gestures the specific applications can be opened.

Abstract: COVID-19 lockdown has made really a challenging situations for everyone and in every sector of the economy. In the same way, education sector is also not untouched from the effect of covid-19 lockdown. Lockdown has made education of the students a great challenge in front of the teachers. Although, teachers are making efforts to educate the students from home during lockdown by using various online methods. The paper was conducted to know the perception of teachers and their experiences of teaching students online during the lockdown. A questionnaire is prepared to find out how the teachers are managing the students and what the challenges they are facing during online teaching? To conduct the investigation 200 questionnaires were sent online to teachers of different public and private universities and colleges of Uttrakhand and out of that 161 responses were analysed. The analysis represents the impact of online education on the perception of teachers on the basis of various factors (Diversifying Knowledge, Technical Knowledge, Comfortability, Communication Gap, Teacher�s Burden and Working Hour). The analysis was carried out with One Way ANOVA test in SPSS 20. The t-test was used to know the perception of teacher�s on online education through demographics. From the analysis it was revealed that teachers believe that online education is actually diversifying knowledge of the teachers and increasing their technical knowledge but it also has increases the working hours of the teachers as the online connection has reduced the communication gap between the students & teachers throughout the day. The study also concludes that young teachers are more actively participating in the online education to teach the students. This may be due to the reason of their familiarity with the technology. Overall study says that the teachers are taking online education positively and they are actively participating in shaping the future of students during COVID-19 lockdown.
