Anthropological View of Sharing System in Purananuru

Anthropological studies reveal the development of the life of ancient Tamils hierarchical development. The lives of the people in the hunting community, i.e., the ethnic social status, are found in other forms in the feudal society that followed. The division is the division. The hunting community is feeding food because it cannot be stored. In feudal society, too, such a baddeity was transformed into hospitality. The distribution of the looted goods has also been transformed into a fly. It may be said that the function of sharing in cultural life was in the social position of the ethnic group. Even today, such a practice of sharing is seen among the tribalpeople. It is said that the ancient Tamils adopted sharing in alternative forms. Anthropologists refer to sharng as the custom of the early ethnic communities. In the sangam society, which was a feudal society, there was a baddita. It is seen that in the purananuru songs, they attracted the aniyars and made them into themselves

Review Paper on Reaction of Alkaline Solution in GEO-Polymer Concrete

Geopolymer is a class of aluminosilicate binding materials synthesized by thermal activation of solid aluminosilicate base materials such as fly ash, metakaolin, GGBS etc., with an alkali metal hydroxide and silicate solution. The geopolymer was activated with sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate and heat. This paper presents the experimental investigation done on the variation of alkaline solution on mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete. The grades chosen for the investigation were M-30, M-40, M-50 and M-60, the mixes were designed for 8 molarity. The alkaline solution used for present study was the combination of sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide solution with the varying ratio of 2, 2.50, 3 and 3.50. The test specimens were 150x150x150 mm cubes and 100x200 mm cylinders heat-cured at 60°C in an oven. The results revealed that the workable flow of geopolymer concrete was in the range of 85 to 145 and was dependent on the ratio by mass of sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide solution. The freshly prepared geopolymer mixes were cohesive and their workability increased with the increase in the ratio of alkaline solution. The strength of geopolymer concrete can be improved by decreasing the water/binding and aggregate/binding ratios. The curing period improves the polymerization process resulting in higher compressive strength. The geopolymer concrete do not have any Portland cement, they can be considered as less energy interactive. It utilizes the industrial wastes such as fly ash for producing the binding system in concrete. The obtained compressive strength and split tensile strength were in the range of 20.64 – 60 N/mm2 and 3 – 4.9 N/mm2. The optimum dosage for alkaline solution can be considered as 2.5, because for this ratio the GPC specimens of any grade produced maximum strength in compression and tension

Enhancement of data transmission using optimized multi-cell approach in 5G backhaul wireless mesh network

The millimeter wave (mmWave) band and its usage has taken an attention in this 5G creation as its implementation can provide ultra-high speed data transmission in wireless network. This is much better than the centimeter wave-band as it has limitations on the bandwidth usage. While considering the 5G networking with the backhaul-topologies, the network and user-equipment performance depends on the selection of serving receiving nodes (RNs) of the user-equipment (UE). Therefore, the algorithms that reduces the complexity of the UE association and the backhaul traffic-routing must be chosen, which thereby maximizes the efficiency of the spectrum and energy of network. The modifications are done to the Multicellular local solution (McLS)approach, which leads to our proposed algorithm that is, improved against the channel information estimation-errors. The optimized multi-cell approach (OMcA) is formed by combining the improved-parameter, the pre-coder, mean square error (MSE) weighted-variable and receive filter. The proposed OMcA is compared with some other existing technique in order to evaluate the performance in terms of sum rate (SR)

Etiological classification of seizures in pediatric age group (6-12years) – MRI study

Background: A seizure is an occurrence of signs or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain. The present study aims to study the etiological factors and clinical profile for new-onset seizures in children aged 6-12 years and to determine the frequency of Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) abnormalities in the pediatrics age group with new-onset unprovoked seizure and those with inadequately investigated longstanding epilepsy and classify the etiology based on the MRI findings. Methods: A prospective study involving a total of 50 patients was recruited aged between 6 to 12 years. All of them underwent neuro-imaging with MRI. Uncooperative patients were imaged following sedation and monitoring by the anesthetist. All children aged 6-12 years who presented with new-onset seizures were included. All MR images were obtained at a 3-mm section thickness except magnetization-prepared rapid gradient-echo images, which are obtained at a 1.8-mm section thickness. Results: Of the 50 patients 28 presented with generalized tonic-clonic seizures, 12 with simple partial seizures, 10 with complex partial seizures. Generalized seizures were a more common presentation than partial seizures in children 6-12 years of age. Conclusion: With the positivity of the MRI in the new-onset seizure in children between 6-12 years in our study gives an important aspect of the essential factor of imaging in pediatric new-onset seizures

Multi-modal piano note detection using audio and video

Many people have been interested in music recognition. The automated transcription of musical compositions and the identification of sound sources, such as the sort of instruments used, have taken a lot of time and work. With the rise of personal computers and multimedia systems in recent years, research in these areas has gotten a lot of attention. In our paper, we have chosen a piano based song for the purpose of analysis. We have divided the song in chunks called frames for note recognition. Initially, we performed manual analysis to recognize the notes so that we have the correct notes. Then after, we have used finder tip following technique for tracking the notes which are played. This is our input dataset for image or frame based input. Subsequently, the audio is extracted and divided to chunks similar to number of frames in the video. We have performed audio frequency analysis to perform note detection based on the audio. When the variables of interest can’t be measured directly but an indirect measurement is available, Kalman filter and particle filter are used to estimate them as best as possible. They’re also used to obtain the best approximation of states in the presence of noise by integrating readings from numerous sensors. The novelty of our research is that we have implemented Kalman filter and particle filter based on audio and video based input instead of sensor data which is never used before

Mobile Banking Adoption Among Rural Consumers: Evidence from India

Recently, Financial Inclusion has received greater attention, as it is a key to economic growth and equality, growth of the business, and stability of financial and banking systems. In the process of understanding how technology is useful for financial inclusion, the study tries to understand the elements that prompt the perceived acceptability of mobile banking among the low income and low literate stratum. To explore these elements, the current piece of work utilized the Unified theory of acceptance and use of technology and with the addition of component of perceived risk. The research utilized convenience sampling to collect data from the respondents having Jan Dhan account. The results show that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and perceived risk have a significant influence on intention to use mobile banking among financial inclusion stratum. Surprisingly, the facilitating conditions were found insignificant. The outcomes of the research can guide banks and technology houses to develop a more user-acceptable mobile banking system. Also, the outcome will help policymakers to enhance mobile banking system adoption for financial inclusion by considering influencing elements
