 Abstract

The microgrids are generally a network consisting of small scale generators supplying a small area but they are not entirely isolated but also connected to the national grid in most of the cases. Islanding is an emergency condition where the main grid goes off while the DG is still connected to the system. This causes potential threat to the whole system. The system may collapse if it is not detected fast and remedial action is not taken. This research work tries to do a systematic study of common methods of islanding detection available and draw necessary conclusions.

 Abstract

Since previous years, machine learning has become increasingly important in major fields, normal speech commands, and product recommendations. Rather than this, it offers safer automotive systems and superior customer services. Given that machine learning (ML) is a popular technology across nearly all industries, we are attempting to include ML into our project. The real estate market is one of the most competitive these days in terms of price and volatility. People are searching to get a new house by analyzing market techniques and sticking to their finances. However, the primary drawback of the existing approach is that it determines a home's valuation without making the essential predictions about future market trends, which drives up prices. Thus, the primary goal is to estimate home prices accurately and profitably. Predicting an accurate house price requires taking into account a number of variables, including the customer's preferences and budget, in order to provide effective house pricing. Thus, we are developing a model to forecast housing costs. by utilizing linear regression and other machine learning algorithms.

 Abstract

Modern car insurance industries waste a lot of resources due to claim leakages, which determines the amount they pay. Currently,visual Inspections and Validations are done manually,which can delay the claim processes.Previous study have shown that classifying images is possible with a small data set,by transferring and re purposing knowledge from models trained for a different task. Our goal is to build a Car Damage classifier using a deep learning model that is able to detect the different damage types and give an accurate depiction given a car image. However, due to the limiting set of data, it can be result in being a determining factor.Training a Convolutional Network from scratch (with random initialization) is difficult because it is relatively rare to have a large enough dataset.In this project we explore the problem of classifying images containing damaged cars to try and assess the monetary value of the damage. Because of the nature of this problem,classifying this data may prove to be a difficult task since no standardized dataset exists and some of the clases utilized might not be discriminative enough. Utilizing a pretrained YOLOv8 model,we trained a classifier in order to categorize the dataset,testing 3 different cases: damaged or not (damage vs whole),damage location (front vs rear vs side),damage level (minor vs moderate vs severe).

 Abstract

Air pollution is the presence of human-harming substances in the atmosphere. It is linked to a significant risk of cardiovascular diseases (such as strokes and ischemic heart disease), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, lower respiratory infections, and lung cancer that cause premature death. The primary gaseous pollutants are volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as well as inorganic substances like lead or chromium (Pb or Cr), ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and carbon dioxide (CO2). The respiratory symptoms of asthma, which include coughing, wheezing, dyspnoea, and chest tightness linked to fluctuating expiratory airflow limitation, are indicative of a chronic inflammatory airway disease. tiny particles in the air that are present in smoke, haze. As a result of breathing in tiny particles from contaminated air, soot and airborne dust can cause major issues with air quality and irritate your lungs. Inhaled tiny particles and irritating gases can pose a larger risk to individuals suffering from asthma. They may aggravate asthma by irritating the respiratory tract. Although anybody can be affected by air pollution, those who have asthma are more vulnerable. Pollution both indoors and outside can aggravate asthma symptoms.

Abstract: Online courses play an significant role in the developing of new skills in students. As a result of open learning platforms and online courses, there is an increasing number of online courses, and certifications available on the internet from various universities. This project is a machine learning-driven course recommendation system that uses the concepts of decision trees in machine learning to provide an effective method for making decisions and generating all the possible outcomes. The K-NN algorithm also helps to store all the available data, classifies a new data point based on the similarity, and produces the desired results. This project suggests appropriate learning courses for students by viewing their study streams and interests. For students to achieve their ideal goals, choosing a learning pathway is essential. However, since there is an abundance of knowledge that is obviously related, it can be difficult for students to select a course that combines their interests and future demands. This proposed framework suggests courses that have previously been taken by similar students, facilitating students to choose a course of study based on their interests. The suggested method makes use of a number of data mining strategies to find correlations between courses. Evaluations based on analysis parts are a key component of the project's methodology. With the help of these methods, we are able to select a suitable course that is given as input, then provide courses that satisfy various requirements. The outcomes meet the requirements for discovering related courses and providing them via cross-platform apps to the students who will use them to enhance their education.

Abstract: This study explores the impact of neighbourhood contextual factors on alcohol use and related issues in Wayanad, Kerala, India with a notable prevalence of alcohol-related problems, particularly among the Scheduled Tribes (STs), constituting 18% of the population. Recognizing the diverse negative consequences associated with alcohol use, including health, social, economic, and psychological problems, alongside discrimination and stigma, this research employs a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data collected from respondents Qualitative insights were gleaned from 60 purposively selected respondents through semi-structured interviews, exploring their experiences with alcohol use and problems, and the influence of contextual factors. Findings reveal higher rates of alcohol use and issues among STs compared to non-STs, varying significantly across villages. The study underscores the impact of neighbourhood contextual factors - poverty, low literacy, diminished social capital, and increased alcohol availability - on alcohol use and problems, independent of individual socio-demographics. Qualitative data corroborate and elucidate the underlying mechanisms. The study concludes that interventions should address both individual and neighbourhood factors to tackle alcohol-related challenges effectively. Additionally, it advocates for mixed-methods research to comprehensively understand these issues, suggesting spatial analysis as a valuable tool for identifying and addressing alcohol hot spots. Ultimately, the study contributes to the alcohol-related literature in India, offering valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and researchers in addressing alcohol dependence and discrimination in Wayanad.

 Abstract

Blockchain technology, which offers a decentralized and safe platform for the creation, ownership, and exchange of distinctive digital assets, has emerged as a key component in the growth of Non-Fungible tokens (NFT) markets. NFTs use the immutable ledger of blockchain technology to indicate ownership or authenticity of digital content and to prohibit unauthorized changes. Smart contracts are used by the blockchain technology used in NFT marketplaces, which is frequently based on Ethereum or other compatible blockchains, to automate the generation and execution of NFT transactions. By defining the guidelines for the creation, transfer, and verification of NFTs, these smart contracts do away with the need for middlemen and increase participant trust. The provenance of NFTs is determined in large part by the key aspects of blockchain technology, including decentralization, cryptographic security, and consensus procedures. This addresses issues with intellectual property and authenticity by guaranteeing that the history of any digital item, from its creation to its current owner, is traceable and verifiable.

 Abstract

This study investigates the influence of parenting styles on the development of emotional intelligence and resilience in young adults. By examining how these elements interrelate and affect each other, through a quantitative analysis of 154 participants. The research provides valuable insights into the role of parental upbringing in shaping psychological traits. The study's primary focus was to assess the connection between parenting styles and emotional intelligence in young adults. The results demonstrated a significant positive correlation (r=0.44) at the 0.01 level, indicating that nurturing, warm, and supportive parenting enhances young adults' ability to comprehend and manage emotions. This, in turn, facilitates better social interactions, emotional regulation, and adaptation to diverse situations. On the other hand, authoritarian or neglectful parenting may impede emotional intelligence development, potentially leading to challenges in emotional regulation and interpersonal relationships. The secondary aim was to explore the correlation between parenting styles and resilience in young adults. The research hypothesized a negative correlation and found a statistically significant negative correlation (r=-0.43) at the 0.01 level, suggesting that controlling parenting styles correlate with lower resilience in young adults. Despite the findings, the study also suggests that resilience is influenced by a variety of factors beyond parenting styles, such as genetic predispositions, external environmental conditions, and personal traits. These results underscore the critical role of parenting in fostering emotional growth and highlight the importance of positive parent-child interactions for promoting emotional well-being in young adults. Although resilience appears to encompass multiple dimensions beyond parental influence, the research suggests that authoritative, permissive, or uninvolved parenting styles can impede the development of coping mechanisms necessary for effectively dealing with life's challenges. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of supportive and nurturing parenting approaches in enhancing young adults' emotional intelligence and resilience, with implications for parents, educators, and mental health practitioners. The findings offer avenues for further research into other factors influencing resilience and emotional intelligence, potentially guiding interventions and support systems for young adults.

Micelles are treated as enzyme-like particles and micellar catalysis was used to mimic enzyme catalysed reactions. In order to get in-depth knowledge of enzymatic reactions, the electron transfer reactions were carried out in the presence of Sodium- dodecylsulfate (SDS) micelles. The micellar kinetic data shows fractional order dependance on Phenylsulfinylacetic acid , PSAA and the operation of Michaelis-Menten kinetics is inferred from the linear double reciprocal plots of k1 versus [PSAA] with finite intercept on the rate axis. The kinetic data shows first order dependence with respect to Iron (III) polypyridyl complex ,[Fe(NN)3]3+ and the rate constant is found to increase with increase in [H+]. From the study of substituent effect it is clear that both ERG and EWG accelerate the reaction rate. On applying Hammett correlation between substituent constant ? and kov of meta- and para-substituted PSAAs, a nonlinear Hammett plot was obtained. The micellar catalysis observed here is as expected since one of the reactants is a cation [Fe(NN)3]3+ and the other one is neutral PSAA . Hence, both can bind with the anionic micelle by electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions respectively.

According to Ayurveda, Living body is continuously subjected to wear and tear process. Dhatus which are being lost in physiological activities are replenished by food and water. The word rasa dhatu literally means the component of the body with nutrients and essence. There are two forms of rasa related to body physiology. Man needs to eat food to build a new Dhatus and to repair damage Dhatus. After consumption food is digested in gastro intestinal tract. Fluid formed from the digested part of food is called as Ahara Rasa. For growth, Dhatus needs nourishment, and these Dhatus are nourished by food and water. Aahar Rasa is formed in Annavaha Srotas. Aahar Rasa contains nutrients of seven Dhatus. Aahar Rasa is absorbed from Grahani (small intestine) and brought into heart. Heart is a root of Rasavaha Srotas, hence in heart, Rasa Dhatvagni transforms nutrients of Ahara Rasa into stable Rasa Dhatu. Rasa Dhatu is formed in Rasavaha Srotas. Rasa is the first Dhatu formed from Aahar-Rasa.

 Abstract

Any critical and nuanced analysis of what contours this discourse - security versus liberty - must begin by placing it within the legal and socio-political context of India. Inspired by the evolutionary laws of Great Britain, India inherited a complex regime of surveillance through the Information Technology Act 2000, and the Indian Telegraph Act 1885. The advent of the technological revolution has led to the use of various surveillance architecture like Aadhaar (unique biometric ID), centralized monitoring systems (CMS), air traffic surveillance (NETRA) and national intelligence grid (NATGRID), all of which have in turn, like everywhere else in the world, created concerns about safety and security on the one hand, and the right to privacy on the other. The recent judgment by the Supreme Court in the Aadhaar case, Justice K S Puttaswamy (Retd) v. Union of India, recognized privacy as a fundamental right. The judgment talks about the need for 'proportionality, legality and necessity of state action' that can be bring used to bring about a violation to an individual's right to privacy. Thus, the discourse of surveillance oscillates across time, across evolving legal regimes, and is situated squarely on the idea of the tension between surveillance to ensure freedom and surveillance to ensure guardedness. The fluidity with which India intends to keep changing and creating laws related to privacy and data protection can be seen in the passage and discussion of the personal data protection bill, which acknowledges the tension between the demand for the need to ensure security and surveillance and the need to also uphold the right to privacy within the democratic legal framework.
