Software defect prediction

Software Defect Prediction is an important aspect in order to ensure software quality. Deep Learning techniques can also be used for the same. In this paper, we propose to extract a set of expressive features from an initial set of basic change measures using Artificial Neural Network (ANN), and then train a classifier based on the extracted features using Decision tree and compare it to three other methods wherein features are extracted from a set of initial change measures using dimensionality reduction techniques that include Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Kernel PCA. We use five open source datasets from NASA Promise Data Repository to perform this comparative study. For evaluation, three widely used metrics: Accuracy, F1 scores and Areas under Receiver Operating Characteristic curve are used. It is found that the Artificial Neural Network outperformed all the other dimensionality reduction techniques. Kernel PCA performed best amongst the dimensionality reduction techniques.

Implementation of ROS-I on industrial robot simulation environment

This paper presents the procedure for the implementation of ROS-I architecture into the Robotic simulation offline programming environment. The Implementation is done by developing the packages which are necessary for implementing into ROS-I that are related to modeling and Configuring of the Industrial Robot. The Communication between ROS-I and Roboguide will be established, and motion planning can be performed through Rviz moveit! Interfaces.

Design and development of wheel spray pump

In the agricultural sector generally, the farmer uses the traditional way that means spray carried on back and spraying crop. This becomes time consuming, costly and human efforts is a major concern, these problems can be overcome by using mechanically operated wheel spray pump. It facilitates the uniform spread of the chemicals, it is capable of spraying chemicals at the desired level, precision made nozzle tip for adjustable stream and capable of throwing foggy spray as per requirement. In our project we use the slider-crank mechanism to convert rotational motion into a reciprocating motion to operate the pump, thus the pesticide is spread through the nozzle. This work gives a continuously foggy flow of pesticide at the required pressure and height. A special arrangement is implemented in this project to adjust the pressure as high or low. We also use two wheels at the back of the frame to balance the complete assembly. By using the wheel spray pump, spraying time and human efforts reduce and results in cost reduction.

Quality improvement in carbon bush machining

This paper presents a Lean Six Sigma improvement in a production line of the company’s Carbon Bush Machining Sector, in order to eliminate losses that cause low productivity, affecting the fulfillment of the production plan and customer satisfaction. The use of Lean methodology following the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control) stages allowed analysing the factors that cause wastages of carbon bush. The root cause for wastages were identified with helps of quality tools like (control chart, Pareto chart, cause and effect and diagram, etc). The major problem and cause that contributes for wastage which we assumed were through handling of work pieces (carbon bush), done by both machines and humans. The solution was generated after collection of various data through inspection.

To find out correlation between the temperament and the parameters of a smile: A photographic study on visagism

In order to design a more life-like smile, it is necessary to co-relate it to the personality of the subject. It is possible using a novel concept of “Visagism”. With the Visagism concept, clinicians can design a smile that blends the patient’s physical appearance with his/her personality and desires. Aim: To find out as to whether the concept of Visagism is present in dentate individuals. Setting and Design: A self-reporting questionnaire was formulated which highlighted the reaction of female subjects to different situations in life and hence their personality was determined. Materials and Methods: The photographs of teeth of the same subjects were taken, and their tooth forms, long axes, and embrasure lines were drawn using the software. Statistical Analysis Used: These parameters were then statistically analyzed and correlated with the individual personality. Results and Conclusion: A definite correlation was found between the temperament and the parameters of a smile. The parameter of tooth form was more closely related to the personality and the most common temperament was found out.

Case Study

Outcome Based Education, need for the hour- NBA

Outcome-Based Education (OBE) model is being adopted at a fast pace at Engineering colleges in India at the moment. It is considered as a giant leap forward to improve technical education in India and help Indian Engineers compete with their global counterparts. Outcome Based Education (OBE) is an important demonstration Tool for student-centered instruction that focuses on measuring student performance through outcomes. Outcomes include Engineering Knowledge, Problem Analysis, Ethic, Individual and Team Work, Communication etc... It enables the students to perpetuate these outcomes as they perceive over the years of engineering. The students are evaluated for all the required parameters (Outcomes) during the course of the program. The attainment, defined by the NBA, gives a substantial opportunity for Tier-II students to bridge this gap of employability. In this present paper, a case study is developed through CO-PO mapping and attainment for Mechanical Engineering Students of Tier-II. The formulated rubrics assessment is indicative of a continuous improvement strategy that can be easily adaptable by faculty and students across engineering streams.
