5. Stock Market prediction made easy with Machine Learning algorithms

The main objective of this paper is to find the best model for predicting the stock market movement. We have tested various models based on machine learning that were previously implemented and during the process, we found out that the Random Forest and Support Vector Machine algorithms were not exploited well. In this paper, we are going to find out a more feasible method to predict the stock market with higher accuracy. We have taken a dataset of stock market prices from previous years and pre-processed the data for real analysis. So, our paper will also be focusing on pre-processing of the raw dataset. After pre-processing, we will be reviewing the use of random forest and support vector machine on the datasets and the outcome it generates. The paper also examines the feasibility of the prediction system in real-world settings and issues associated with the accuracy of predicting the market. If this model achieves higher accuracy than previously implemented machine learning algorithms then it can prove to be a great asset for stockbrokers, institutions, and individual investors.

6. Simulated and observed DO (Dissolved Oxygen) values for selected major stations of spring-fed Kosi River stretch through model WASP (Water Quality Analysis Simulation Program)

The river Kosi is a spring fed river of Indian Himalayan region which quenches the thirst of major population of Kumaon region. The model WASP (Water quality analysis simulation program)is a widely used model suggested by EPA that can help simulate the water quality processes in diverse water bodies as reservoirs, ponds, lakes river like surface water bodies. The analysis in the 4 major selected stations of the stretch for Dissolved Oxygen was found to be 4-11mg/l as measured value whereas simulated values ranged from 1 mg/l to 10mg/l at the origin of the river, whereas at the end point of the river the simulated and measured value ranged from 4mg/l-8mg/l , 6mg/l. The Dissolved oxygen in the water is very essential to estimate the water quality as it directly affects the aquatic life and also signifies the presence of organic matter as well as microorganisms in the water. The continuous variations in the DO levels are observed in the entire stretch. The probable reason is uneven rainfall, scattered population and terrain complexities of the region. The continuous and frequent merging of various springs into the main course river results in frequent fluctuations in the physicochemical parameters of the river. This study is an attempt to comparatively analyse the water quality of the only river of the region with the simulated values from model WASP and observed water quality from daily sampling from the water body.

10. A critical review of alternative raw materials that can be used in the production of lyocell to make it cost competitive

The textile industry is one of the largest contributors to the looming climate crisis. Cotton, the most popular fabric, severely harms the environment because of its high water and carbon footprint. In current times, achieving sustainability is of utmost importance. Lyocell, a regenerated cellulosic fiber, is an eco-friendly alternative that offers similar benefits as cotton. However, due to the use of hardwood as a raw material in commercial production, it is twice as expensive and hence not widely adopted. This literature review evaluates the use of other raw materials that can be substituted into the conventional lyocell production process. The cost-effectiveness, time needed for implementation, and environmental impact of the method of generating the dissolving pulp and additional steps required for each alternative have been compared. After a critical evaluation, it was concluded that polycotton waste would be the most suitable alternative raw material as it will not harm the environment while also reducing pollution and offering a solution to recycle textiles and PET plastic, hence promoting sustainability and restoring the environment.

11. Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) waste: An Emerging monster in Lagos municipal solid waste

Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) also referred to as Styrofoam, is a form of plastic frequently use for food packaging. This research focuses on the generation, disposal, and negative effects of waste EPS in Lagos Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). Studies from some specific locations in five Local Government Areas (LGAs) of Lagos showed daily usage of EPS (as food package) by street food vendors and its negative impact on the environment and human life. Qualitative analysis of these locations of Lagos state has shown how several factors including the properties of EPS such as low cost, light weight, versatility, low recycle value and non biodegradability has contributed to the surge of EPS waste in Lagos state. This paper shows how street food vendors and consumers’ attitudes have contributed to defacing the aesthetic quality of Lagos state.

15. Design, analysis, and fabrication of an electric hybrid dune buggy

This paper's main goal is to discuss all aspects of designing an electric hill buggy. In this consideration, a hitherto unseen and lighter rising buggy chassis is offered. Using Autodesk Combination 360, a CAD model of the chassis was created, as well as a Limited Component Investigation. To mimic the effect behavior on the chassis, a stacking model of 4g, 6g, 8g, 10g, and 16g was used, Fabric selection, chassis design, crosssection assurance, and roll cage quality requirements were all part of the planning and development process. To build up our directing, we followed Ackermann's controlling geometry. Lotus Shark was used to plan and test the suspension architecture of the rover speed and clamp force of the vehicle. The results of simulations performed in Autodesk Fusion 360 under various loading situations revealed that this design has shown appropriate resistance to deformation in front, rear, and side-impact testing. There was more than one aspect of safety in every circumstance. As a result, the suggested design was shown to be totally safe in testing settings. Before putting it to the test in real-world situations, however, comprehensive modeling and simulation studies are required. The Lotus Shark simulations revealed that the suspension geometry chosen for our design had the least amount of bump steer, camber angle shift, and toe angle change during suspension bump and droop. A dune buggy is a vehicle designed for use on dunes and roads. Such a type of vehicle is primarily used for recreational purposes.

17. Role of machine learning in text classification – An extensive review

Cyberspace has elevated business insights and created a virtual space to store all forms of information online. Due to the rapid development in the online world, the usage of digital documents has increased because it is comfortable for the users to share, update or keep track of the records in one place without losing data. However, maintaining massive data does not suit optimal decision-making and is extremely expensive for storage, processing, and collection. There is a gigantic possibility that human annotators make errors while classifying data because of distraction, monotony, fatigue, and failure to meet the requirements. Once the text classification method uses machine learning approaches, the process will execute with fewer mistakes and more accuracy. The main goal of this review paper is to highlight and explain the role of different machine learning methodologies in text classification. Concurrently, this paper describes the challenges faced by other machine learning techniques and text representation. Furthermore, this review paper will provide an extensive survey on how various machine learning techniques such as Neural Networks, Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Decision Trees, and Support Vector Machine (SVM) - are implemented in Text classification.

21. Difference between behavioral finance and traditional finance

Global financial markets are leveraged by many factors: The process of economic which takes place in the world, institutional and political hampering, information disperses and attainability, etc. In behavioral finance people’s reactions, as well as perception, are one of the most significant factors. Not only institutional investors but also individual investors who have been investing in financial markets in recent decades have become more popular. Short-term price changes are influenced by market participants that are not always based on logic, sometimes they can be inspired by mood or instant news. That is why Investing decision depends on the object and its financial status in the future. Whereas In traditional finance experts find out financial locus admired not by the error-prone and emotional Homo sapiens, but by the stunning Homo economicus. Behavior finance models always depend on a concept of independent investors who are susceptible to judgment and decision-making fallacy. This article issues a brief introduction on behavioral finance, which encircle research that drops the traditional premise of expected efficient markets.

26. An NLP Based Algorithm for Subjective Answer Checking

In the current pandemic situation, where not only the classes, but also the exams are being conducted in online mode, an artificial intelligence-based agent can evaluate the subjective type answers not only efficiently, but also fairly with considerably good accuracy. Using Natural language processing helps in reducing the manual labor for the evaluation of hundreds of similar answers and makes the process easier and faster. An agent to check answers automatically and provide an evaluation based on certain parameters are the basis for this paper. The tutor/teacher gives certain inputs to the agent which are looked for in the answers and accordingly the answers are graded by the agent. The grades given by the agent are as good as the grades given by a human teacher. In this paper, we’ve proposed a technique using Natural Language Processing to evaluate subjective answers.

27. Handwritten Digit Classification using CNN

Since people's writing styles vary in form and orientation, handwritten digit identification is a difficult job. Two steps are essential for the production of effective handwritten digit recognition. The extraction of discriminating features from handwritten images is the first step, and the classification of new digit images is the second. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are at the heart of spectacular developments in deep learning that combine Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and cutting-edge deep learning techniques. Pattern recognition, sentence classification, speech recognition, face recognition, text categorization, document interpretation, scene recognition, and handwritten digit recognition are only a few of the applications. Our project's aim is to improve detection accuracy by expanding the model depth. This is accomplished by increasing the number of layers and the number of filters. The Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) datasets were used for this performance assessment using CNN.

This study is a correlation study design, which intends correlate the sitting balance and functional performance (in activities of daily living like dressing. Transfers and forward wheeling) within the sample. The entire subject performed the modified functional reach test and the results were observed for correlation with pre-specified functional activities performed by the subjects. In my study I found that the quality of life is much more affected in the patients have sitting balance, this is may be the population of the different country. So we can say that all four domains are significantly different. All four have impact on patients. First domain has more impact on patients.

32. Religious influences on holistic/analytical thinking and rates of mental illness

Differences in thinking styles, particularly holistic versus analytical between Eastern and Western cultures, might be the reason behind different rates of mental illness between the two. In my paper, I explore the potential determinants of these divergent thinking styles, specifically focusing on religion. Through literature review, I make the case that Buddhist and Christian beliefs are associated with holistic and analytical thinking styles, respectively, and ultimately lead to varying rates of mental illness between the two cultures.

34. Awareness and perception of diet and nutrition in individuals with Diabetes Mellitus

Dietary knowledge and awareness in individuals with diabetes is an important aspect of diabetes management. Several studies have evaluated the awareness of diabetes among the diabetic population. However, limited studies have focused on the relation between nutrition awareness and dietary intake in Indian individuals with diabetes. The present study assessed the awareness and perception regarding the importance of nutrition in individuals with diabetes. It aimed at identifying the knowledge gaps by evaluating the relationship between nutritional awareness and dietary self-care behavior in Indian subjects with diabetes. The study design comprised a cross-sectional survey to assess the awareness about nutrition and nutrient intake in the diabetic population across India. A total of 1000 adults with diabetes were administered a diet recall using Nutri-Calculator, an app-based nutrient calculator, and a structured questionnaire. The nutrient calculator recorded food intake in a 24-hr recall and analyzed nutrient intake in comparison with the respective RDAs (Recommended Dietary Allowances). The nutrient intake report was generated at the end, that mentioned the current intake against the RDA for each survey respondent. The questionnaire evaluated the awareness and perception of the subjects regarding the foods and nutrients that are important in diabetes. The survey was conducted using computer-aided telephonic interview (CATI) methodology and each survey was screened for quality checks after completion. After the survey analysis, it was observed that the majority (95%) of the respondents were aware of the importance of protein intake in diabetes. Nearly, 86.5% assumed that they had an adequate intake of proteins; however, the nutrient intake analysis revealed only 14.8% of respondents were meeting their daily protein requirements. Out of the total respondents, it was observed that 92% of the respondents were aware of the importance of fiber intake in diabetes. Nearly, 81.4% assumed that they had adequate intake of fiber; however, the nutrient intake analysis revealed that only 21.2% of the respondents were consuming a diet adequate in fiber. Furthermore, it was found that the majority of the respondents did not meet the RDAs for micronutrients. Additionally, the study also revealed that dietary deficiency of macronutrients, namely fiber, and protein, resulted in greater hunger pangs in these individuals. In conclusion, the study revealed that the respondents were aware of the importance of protein and fiber in their diet; however, the majority of the respondents consumed a diet deficient in these nutrients as well as micronutrients. This dietary deficiency could have led to an increased frequency of hunger pangs in these individuals. Furthermore, most of the respondents were unaware that a low glycemic index diet is beneficial in the management of diabetes. The study highlighted the need for an effective diet and lifestyle counseling for the management of diabetes.

35. The fundamentals of Neuro-linguistic Programming (NLP)

neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a new field, concerned with people’s patterns of behavior and communication. Patterns include not only observable actions in the world but also the thinking processes and the organization of people’s states of mind as well as their emotions and how all senses are used to reach a point of attention or concentration. Many applications of NLP have been created as a result of its focus on constructing models of human excellence. Furthermore, NLP's global diffusion has been well documented, with corporate executives and consultants turning to the creative and inventive components of NLP for inspiration in organizational growth, total quality management, team building, and strategic planning. However, while there is a substantial body of knowledge about NLP in the Western Hemisphere, nothing is known about it in the Arab world. The purpose of this paper is twofold: to assess NLP patterns and behaviors as practiced by a sample of UAE employees and managers in order to shed light on current workplace practices in the UAE, and to assess the impact of NLP on respondents' behavior and its implications for the organization's objectives. As a result, a survey questionnaire is used to do a quantitative analysis. The sample population consists of employees and managers from various industries and work situations. The research's findings are expected to describe the workplace environment by identifying the dynamics of UAE employees and managers who are thought to play a vital part in the organization's health evaluation.

36. Mechanical characterization of E-Glass/Epoxy composite with a filler material as Ceramic Powder

Glass Fiber Reinforced Epoxy (GFRE) composites play a huge part in practically every aspect of daily life, and the subject of glass composites has become one of the most important study topics in the last decade. To improve mechanical qualities, polymers are usually reinforced with fibers or fillers. The mechanical properties of E-glass/Epoxy composites filled with ceramic materials as filler material were investigated in this study. Composites containing varying percentages of ceramic powder, such as 5%, 10%, and 15%. The ASTM-compliant testing specimen was created using the hand layup method. The mechanical parameters of the produced composites, such as ultimate tensile strength, flexural strength, and Rockwell hardness, were investigated. The test findings show that composites with a 5% volume fraction of Al2O3 filler material had the lowest hardness and therefore highest ultimate tensile strength.

37. Gendered Occupations

Does a person's gender really affect their performance at work? The answer is yes. The idea is that these days we won't see a problem with a woman working for a man or a man working for a woman and wages, sexism, and gender classification in the workplace. This issue would be a social conflict due to the tensions between men and women within the workforce. This paper aims to contribute to a broader understanding of occupation by conceptualizing gender occupation as a theoretical tool to help scholars decipher the gender and politicized nature of the occupation. For certain jobs, just labeling them as "female" diminishes their influence, regardless of how many males are in the area. It seems that some occupations are so gender-specific that this has become an integral part of their de facto definition. Gender-specific job titles such as “midwife” and “postman” actively encourage the inclusion of gender in their definitions.

38. Management of kitchen waste by using the vermicomposting method in Solapur

Vermicomposting is a process in which earthworms are used to convert organic materials into humus-like material known as vermicompost. A number of researchers throughout the world found that the nutrient profile in vermicompost is generally higher than traditional compost. In fact, vermicompost can enhance soil fertility physically, chemically, and biologically. Physically, vermicompost-treated soil has better aeration, porosity, bulk density, and water retention. The chemical properties such as pH, electrical conductivity, and organic matter content are also improved for better crop yield. Nevertheless, the enhanced plant growth could not besat is factory explained by improvements in the nutrient content of the soil, which means that other plant growth influencing materials are available in the vermicomposts. Although vermicomposts have been shown to improve plant growth significantly, the application of vermicomposts at high concentrations could impede the growth due to the high concentrations of soluble salts available in the vermicomposts. Therefore, vermicomposts should be applied at moderate concentrations in order to obtain maximum plant yield. This review paper discussed in detail the effects of vermicompost on soil fertility physically, chemically, and biologically. Future prospects and economy on the use of organic fertilizers in the agriculture sector were also examined.

39. IoT based pothole recognition framework

Maintenance of road conditions is a major problem in recent years in developing countries. Nowadays, road infrastructure is too much important because most road accidents take place due to bad conditions of roads like potholes. Potholes are made because of poor quality of use while making roads. The constant movement of overweight vehicles like trucks is also responsible for these ill roads. Also, these ill roads cause damages to vehicles in terms of tires and shockers and the most important thing is the accidents which are caused due by this. An optimal system should be developed to monitor the road condition and analyses it for future work. We propose an innovative method to resist these accidents and other means by using the advanced sensor system. The sensors will be attached to vehicles and from vehicles, the data are obtained from sensors and the location obtained by the GPS are transferred to road transport authority by IOT where officials take immediate actions. Using the data obtained, the more damaged areas can be prioritized and damage can be reduced.

42. Mythical theories of language origin in the old

People of all eras and times have always been fascinated by the enigma of the "Origin of Language." Various ethnicities and civilizations have their own legendary explanations of language's genesis. The many and fascinating stories about the origins of language finest represent humanity's fundamental desire to decode the unfathomable and inexplicable fact of human existence. India, America, Mesoamerica, North America, Amazonas, Brazil, Europe, Africa, Southeast Asia and Oceania, Polynesia, Australia, and the Andaman Islands all have their own mythology about the origins of language. The purpose of this paper is to lay out the various myths surrounding the origin of language and to demonstrate how these myths explain the mystification and confusion surrounding the enigma of language's creation. "The foundation of speech is not dreary seriousness, but simple play and youthful hilarity; the genesis of language is not to be sought in the prosaic, but in the poetic aspect of existence... When boys and lassies competed with one another to attract the attention of the other sex, when everyone sang his merriest and danced his boldest to lure a pair of eyes to cast admiring glances in his direction, I hear the laughing screams of exultation in primitive speech. "Language was born in the days of mankind's courtship," argues O. Jespersen (See Yule, 1997)

50. Optimized data hiding based steganography approach to secure the confidential information in smart grid

The standard electrical power grid is integrated with information and communication technologies in a smart grid (ICT). Such integration empowers electrical utility providers and consumers to increase the efficiency and availability of the power system and allows customers' needs to be continually monitored, controlled, and managed. A smart grid is a massive, complicated network made up of millions of linked objects and organizations. With such a large network comes a slew of security problems and flaws. Cryptography and steganography algorithms have been applied to give security in SG. The steganography algorithm hides the important data in the cover media to provide imperceptibility to the attacker. Image is the most essential cover media in steganography. The least significant bit (LSB) method is used to hide the confidential information in the cover image. The hiding process provides variability in the cover image. In this paper, an optimized data hiding method is proposed to reduce the variability. The proposed method has two phases. In the first phase, the confidential information bits are matched with LSB bits of a cover image pixel. For matching purposes, an original or complemented form of confidential information bits is matched with cover image pixel and if a match is found then the index is determined. In the second phase, the indexes are hidden in the cover image in an optimal way using the JAYA optimization algorithm. The optimization algorithm searches the optimal starting point in the cover image for index hiding. After searching the optimal starting pixel, hide the index using the k-bits LSB method. The proposed method is simulated in MATLAB and performance analysis is done using various parameters. The simulation outcomes represent that the presented method is better than existing methods.

This resulted in a complete recovery from the agonizing vertigo problems and a significant reduction to a near-normal triglyceride level. Acupressure 14 points exercise therapy designed by Swamiji Vethathiri Maharishi is a legacy delivered by him to the welfare of mankind It can be very well said that this Acupressure 14 points exercise therapy is a non-pharmacological, complementary alternative medicine (CAM) which is very safe to use, involves no side effects and, very inexpensive therapy.

54. Skin diseases analysis using a Machine Learning approach

Dermatological illnesses are caused by flaws in the skin's components or layers. It has targeted individuals of various ages, genders, races, socioeconomic statuses, and backgrounds. When health priorities are established, skin disorders are often seen as minor players compared to the worldwide league of illnesses that cause significant mortality, such as HIV/AIDS, community-acquired pneumonia, and TB. On the other hand, skin issues are among the most often seen illnesses in tropical primary care settings (such as India). In this work, I want to eradicate the practice of overlooking minor skin deformities as they may be the symptoms of something severe. Because ignoring a small red inflation spot on your chin may be okay, as it may be Acne, which does -practically- no harm to your body, but ignoring an ununiform black mole may be the biggest mistake of your life as there is a significant possibility that it may be the cause of Melanoma- the most severe type of skin cancer. This work gives the overall review of skin issues by predicting them using the machine learning (ML) approach.

69. Analysis and design of R.C.C. and composite structures with Steel Beam

Structural engineers are facing the challenge of striving for the most efficient and economical design solutions while ensuring the final design of a building to be serviceable for its intended function, habitable for its occupants, and safe over its design lifetime. As our country is the fastest-growing country across the globe and needs shelter with higher land costs in major cities where further horizontal expansion is not much possible due to space shortage, we are left with the solution of vertical expansion. Steel-concrete composite construction has gained wide acceptance worldwide as an alternative to pure steel and pure concrete construction. Reinforced concrete members are used in the framing system for most of the buildings since this is the most convenient and economic system for low-rise buildings. However, for medium to high-rise buildings, this type of structure is no longer economical because of increased dead load, less stiffness, span restriction, and hazardous formwork. A steel-concrete composite frame system can provide an effective and economic solution to most of these problems in medium to high rise buildings. An attempt has been made in this study to explore the cost-effectiveness of composite construction. The study concludes that composite structures can be best suited as compared Reinforced Concrete Structures

73. Secure result processing system amid COVID-19 and beyond using digital signature

Digital workflow of results from the department where results are generated, to the processing unit, and finally to the students or any other units where results are needed is highly recommended more especially in this era of technological revolution and COVID-19 epidemics. Besides, a couple of drawbacks is usually associated with paper-based result processing. These drawbacks included but were not limited to high overhead cost, high fraud risk, document misplacement, degradation of the document after multiple printing, and delay in result processing. However, online result processing cannot be exonerated from fraud such as cyber-related fraud. Cybercrimes are increasing on daily basis with more concern in developing countries and as such, every online business or transaction should be defended against malicious attacks and unnecessary alterations. Considering the critical and confidential nature of results vis-à-vis the menace associated with cybercrime, this paper suggests the application of digital signature in online result processing to ensure the authentication of the sender, integrity of data, and non-repudiation. The use of the digital signature technique as a security measure in online result processing will promote trust and acceptability of results and other related information. This paper carried out an overview of cybercrime, introduced the concept, framework, and application of digital signature in online result processing.

The world is filled with technical advancement. In recent years, Artificial Intelligence has been a core component of every field ranging from medical, education, and whatnot. This paper is all about how AI can be used in the recruitment process. When someone is in need of a job, the interview is something that he/she has to go through. There is a different process of interview. Every company opts for different methods. But the common person and the common step in every interview process are the Human resource person and the personal interview step. HR is someone who plays a vital role in a company. Finding the right man for the right position is essential. And that’s a very tedious part too. Although there have been many technological developments in the world, the interview scheduling process is something the same that has been followed for ages. So, we thought of bringing a change in the process. How about AI substitutes labor in the interview process? It is sure that it is not possible completely. But still, it can be adopted in certain areas like application screening and in some more places. In this paper, we have told the possible areas of adopting Artificial intelligence so that the labor and time of HR are cut short and it can be utilized in some more productive areas.

81. Digitization of real-time systems as home

Digitization of Real-Time Systems as Home is an Automation System in which we control the home’s electrical components digitally. In this project, we developed an application as a digital platform for controlling the system. And the availability of the system will be ensured by the use of the Internet. Our System helps users to access their home appliances easily and safely without any change in the existing system in their home. So that without changing the actual components of the home, it’s implemented by adding a digital interface between the user and home. General Home Automation consists of the replacement of each component with IoT devices. The availability of the control is limited to small-scale areas or local control areas. Replacement of each component results in an increment of investment which is very costly. The connection to the system requires the same network to operate. A home automation system controls lighting, temperature, multimedia systems, and appliances. Since these devices and sensors are connected to common infrastructure, they form the Internet of Things. A home automation system links multiple controllable devices to a centralized server.

82. Application of ethanol-hydrogen based biofuel in the energy industry and its sustainable and economical utilization to world environment and international markets

Bioethanol is the world's largest-produced alternative to petroleum-derived transportation fuels due to its compatibility with existing spark-ignition engines and its relatively modern and sustainable production techniques. A major breakthrough is yet to be seen in the energy industry where; renewable fuels would take over the energy industry, becoming the self-sufficient fuel of the future. It’s Due to Bioethanol’s low calorific value, the modern-day fuel hasn’t reached its optimal potential yet. Hence producing sustainable blends would be the ideal solution to this hypothesis. The utilization of coffee grounds as a primary source of raw material would be extremely cost-effective since deriving bioethanol from such a source would only require manufacturing and operating costs. The study also notices the trend of the global economy shifting to using biofuels as a primary source of fuel such as the aviation industry aiming for a carbon-neutral economy by 2030 [4]. The blend of ethanol and Hydrogen would be the optimal fuel for the future. Hydrogen produces a net calorific value of 120 MJ/kg compared to Bioethanol’s Calorific value of 18.2 MJ/kg [3]. Petrol generates approximately 40MJ/kg upon burning that making the blend of Hydrogen and Bioethanol an optimal, potential source of energy [3].

86. Electronic clothing development using boost converter circuit and GPS-GSM module using Arduino

Despite constant research and development of safety technologies for women, most novel technologies lack affordability and effectiveness. In our research, we investigated the existing technologies and developed an electronic jacket equipped with electric nodes which protect the victim by electrocuting the assailant. External help plays a key role in victim recovery and protection and hence our model also notifies the registered contacts, when the victim is attacked. The results support that the jacket can effectively shock the assailant by incorporating a boost converter circuit and sending notifications when the system is initialized by the victim.

95. A case study in green building

Nowadays, sustainable development is a necessary and urgent trend for the global environment. Acting as one of the main parts of the economy. the construction industry also takes part responsibility for protecting the environment through buildings designed with low-impact on the environment. With the green building, there are many benefits to the environment and as the result; it's also good for humans working and living in life. India is experiencing incredible growth in the construction and real estate industry. This rise in the construction sector raises many issues related to the environment and sustainability. As per the economic policy forum, in its report mentioned that in India the energy consumption in buildings is for heating, ventilation and air Conditioner accounts for between 45% and 65% of total electricity consumption. Another study states that the construction sector of India emits about 22% of the total annual emission of CO2 which is very harmful to the environment. Soto handles the adverse situation a new and important concept is emerging in India that is Green Building. Energy efficiency is the key to achieving sustainability in green building. Lowering the energy consumption in construction is starting to become a significant improvement chance for many organizations. This research will identify the benefits of energy efficiency, explore the methods to apply efficient energy usage in green buildings and explore the obstacles in attaining energy efficiency in green buildings. Even though green buildings use a lesser amount of energy compared with usual buildings, energy efficiency is still hard to achieve, due to some barriers to putting into practice energy efficiency. This study will interview a property development company in Malaysia. After analysis, energy efficiency contributed two main benefits in the company such as reduced greenhouse gases emission and lower the air pollution problem, and energy saving. The company implemented electrical feeding and sensor system in the lighting system. passive design, and cross ventilation to achieve energy efficiency in their development projects. However, cost barriers, information barriers, and outdoor condition,s and climate barrier are the obstacles to attaining energy efficiency practices. Due to time constrain, this research was only able to interview one company. With the aim of getting more accurate results, should be interviewed more companies in future research because energy efficiency covers a wide area in the construction field.

96. Jaundice prediction using Machine Learning approach

Jaundice occurs when the rise in the level of bilirubin causes the skin, mucus membrane, and white part of the eyes to appear yellowish. bilirubin is a reddish-yellow substance produced when red blood cells break down.it is excreted through the liver. the bilirubin level will rise up when an abnormally high level of red blood cells breaks down. Any person with liver disease develops jaundice (i.e) when the liver does metabolize bilirubin the way it’s supposed to do, jaundice is developed. Depending on the underlying cause of jaundice, treatment will be provided. If it is caused by viral hepatitis, it will recover on its own. If the cause is because of other infections, diagnosing will be the appropriate treatment. The objective of this work is to develop the most efficient model for any medical lab to predict jaundice. Any data containing relevant factors to jaundice can be used in this model. The standard dataset is collected containing the components age, gender, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, total protein level, albumin, sgpt, sgot and etc. Principal component analysis and factor analysis are performed to identify the useful and important factors which help to determine jaundice. Supervised learning models such as random forest, decision tree, support vector machines, naive Bayes classifier, and other models are used to train the dataset to predict jaundice with better accuracy.
