Perspectives on the Intersection of Gender, Customary Laws and Land Rights in India
customary laws of inheritance; Indian constitution; land rights; sixth schedule; tribal women
For centuries, tribal communities in India have maintained distinct social and cultural identities, often with communal land ownership practices that were inclusive of women. The struggle of tribal women in India for land rights is a poignant manifestation of their fight against intersecting forms of oppression rooted in patriarchy, traditional power structures, and historical marginalisation. Given the existing background, this article discusses the intersection of property rights and gender relations in India, making a case for independent property rights for tribal women. It analyses the role of customary laws of inheritance in a legal pluralistic India and its conflict with positive law. The article also focuses on the role of the Indian judiciary in remedying the systemic discrimination against tribal women in India. It analyses the approach of the Indian courts in maintaining a balance between the autonomy granted to the tribes by the Indian Constitution and ensuring justice to women who are victims of such self-governance. 2024 Jyoti Singh and Kajori Bhatnagar.

Evaluating the Categorical Exclusion of Khasi Women from Inheritance and Property Rights : A Case of East Khasi Hills
customary laws; East Khasi Hills; gender equality; inheritance; Khasi
Customary laws govern inheritance among many tribal communities that fall within the ambit of the fifth and sixth schedules of the Indian Constitution. Under this papers scope, we shall look at the Khasi community hailing from the state of Meghalaya which is a matrilineal community. Where the Khasis draw their lineage from their mothers, there is a misnomer that women inherit and own the entire property. In light of the abovementioned background, the paper makes an analytical study of the customary inheritance rights of Khasi women, the nature of resource ownership and attempts to understand the grounds behind the claims of gender preference in the existing matrilineal system practised by the Khasis of Meghalaya. We also look at the intersection of gender and matrilineal system of inheritance in the Khasi community, the dispute between customs and legislations and examine whether there exists a need for codification. The paper also discusses the findings of the survey and focus group discussions including 90 Khasi women from East Khasi Hills and their growing consensus on equal inheritance rights but resistance towards statutory laws to govern their lives.

GPS; Image Processing; Index Terms: Bluetooth communication; IoT; Real time pothole detection; Sensors; Smartphones; WiFi
Accidents owing to potholes has become an alarming problem in todays life. The first step to solve this problem requires, designing a device embedded on the vehicle which can continuously scan the road surface for identifying potholes, alerting the driver in time and enable the driver to avoid the pothole. The second step is to introduce a technique to enable the device to locate the position of the pothole via GPS (Global Positioning System). The GPS data can be uploaded via a GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) module or Bluetooth module onto a data base which is stored locally. This database can then be transferred to the cloud using WiFi or 4G technology by connecting the system. The third aspect is to link the database to a network system incorporating mapping software such as Google Maps or Open-Street Map. The data in the system can be made available to the general public as well as municipalities and road maintenance agencies. Awareness of the location of potholes will help drivers to avoid those roads and being more careful while driving on the same roads. This paper focuses on the pothole detection task based on image processing algorithms and the data captured from ultrasonic sensor placed on the vehicle. The later steps were implemented through Bluetooth interface available in smartphones. IJSTR 2020.

IoT networks: Integrated learning for privacy-preserving machine learning
Financial fraud is a persistent problem for consumers and financial institutions worldwide. It loses billions of dollars annually. Consequently, a strong fraud detection system (FDS) is essential to minimizing damage to financial institutions as well as clients. One common technique for spotting fraud is to use machine learning algorithms, which analyze large volumes of data to help with pattern detection and future prediction. It is difficult for a centralized FDS to detect fraud trends when these problems are coupled. To train a fraud detection model, this work presents a framework for federated learning, a machine-learning environment in which several entities collaborate to solve a machine-learning problem under the guidance of a central server or service provider. Also, the chapter examines how combined learning can be used to protect privacy in machine learning in Internet of Things systems. It focuses on four main calculations: federated averaging (FedAvg), secure aggregation, holomorphic encryption-based federated learning, and differential privacy in combined learning. Extensive experiments were carried out to evaluate these computations in terms of proving accuracy, conserving protection, and computing efficiency. The findings are shown in the results, with FedAvg achieving the highest accuracy of 92.5% and secure conglomeration demonstrating competitive precision levels of 91.8%. Calculations for differential privacy and holomorphic encryption demonstrated strong security conservation with very little data leakage and security parameters of 2.5 and 1.0, respectively. With little communication overhead and the ability to alter accuracy and conserve protection, secure aggregation emerged as a potential configuration. The computational productivity assessments revealed that secure accumulation produced little communication overhead despite its strong security conservation, which makes it suitable for IoT scenarios with limited resources. By using this tactic, financial institutions may avoid sharing datasets and benefit from a shared model that has seen more fraud than any one bank has on its own. Thus, the sensitive data of the user is protected. The results of the chapter indicate that the federated model (federated averaging) may be as good as or better than the central model (multi-layer perceptron) in detecting financial fraud. This chapter adds to the growing conversation around mixed learning in the Internet of Things by providing insights into the trade-offs between accuracy, security, and efficacy and by laying the groundwork for future developments in privacy-preserving machine learning standards. 2025 selection and editorial matter, Ahmed A.

Smartphone addiction among post-graduate management students: The Indian experience
addiction; internet; management students; smartphone; Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale
This study aimed to recognize the patterns of smartphone addiction among post-graduate management students in the North-East Region of India. The validated Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale (SAPS) was administered to the respondents, and two different methods, namely SAPS method and median-based scoring method, were used to measure smartphone addiction. The measurement results of smartphone addiction show evidence that the student respondents are not vulnerable to smartphone addiction. Principal component analysis with promax rotation (KaiserMeyerOlkin measure = 0.84; Bartletts test of sphericity = 0.000) demonstrated four crucial components that signify smartphone addiction which are habitual issues (issues relating to regularly or repeatedly doing or practicing something), withdrawal anxiety, tolerance, and usage outcomes. Gender was not seen to play a significant role in these components. The duration of use of a smartphone was seen to have a significant relationship with the component of habitual issues but not with the other components. 2023 The Author(s).

Test case reduction and SWOA optimization for distributed agile software development using regression testing
Fractional Sigmoid based K-means Clustering; Regression Testing; Support-based Whale Optimization Algorithm; Test Case Reduction
Regression testing is a well-established practice in software development, but its position and importance have shifted in recent years as agile approaches have grown in popularity, emphasizing the fundamental role of regression testing in preserving software quality. In previous techniques, the challenge to address is determining the number and size of clusters and optimization to stabilize the cost and efficacy of the strategy. To overcome all the existing drawbacks; this research study proposes test case reduction and Support-based Whale Optimization Algorithm (SWOA) for distributed agile software development using regression testing. The purpose of this research study is to look into regression testing strategies in agile development teams and to find out what they are optimum clustered test cases. The proposed strategy is divided into two stages: prioritization as well as selection. Prioritization and selection are carried out once the test instances have been retrieved and grouped. The test case clusters are sorted and prioritized in this stage to ensure that the most critical instances are chosen first. During this stage, the test case clusters undergo sorting and prioritization to guarantee that the most essential cases are selected initially. Second, the SWOA is used to choose test cases with a greater frequency of failure or coverage criterion. The results of the assessment metrics show that the proposed approach outperforms other current regression testing strategies substantially. Based on experimental findings, our proposed approach betters existing methods in terms of information performance.

Farm field security system using CNN and GSM module
Loss of crops and the destruction of livestock have been a major problem for many people in rural areas due to grass-fed animals whose food is derived from plants. According to research 32% are herbivores [1]. Reduced emissions from deforestation as well as deforestation are the main reason for wildlife moving towards urban areas. It results in wildlife infestation and human and animal conflicts. Therefore, compensating for the rapid loss of crops and the slaughter of livestock requires animal shelter and isolation in order to restrict the entry of animals into farm fields. The paper describes an effective and reliable way to identify and repel wildlife from farmland and to send real-time data to the farmer indicating animal attack on fields. An image of an animal will be obtained by convolution neural networks using intensive reading algorithms that provide a message to the farmer using the GSM module. It uses a user alert system and the animal scaring method. The test results show that the proposed algorithm has high visual accuracy. The detection level of the test set is achievable and the detection result is reliable. 2024 Author(s).

This paper addresses the crucial task of automatic sleep stage classification to assist sleep experts in diagnosing sleep disorders such as sleep apnea and insomnia. The proposed solution presents a novel attention-based deep learning model called, Efficient Attention-sleep Model (EASM), designed specifically for sleep apnea detection using EEG signals. EASM incorporates a streamlined architecture that includes a modified Muti-Resolution Convolutional Neural Network (MRCNN), Adaptive Feature Recalibration (AFR), and a simplified Temporal Context Encoder (TCE) module to reduce complexity. To mitigate overfitting, ridge regression is utilized, which incorporates a penalty term to enhance model generalization. Furthermore, the proposed EASM utilizes a class-balanced focal loss function to address data imbalance issues. The effectiveness of EASM is evaluated on two publicly available datasets, SLEEP EDF-20 and SLEEP EDF-78. Comparative analysis of EASM against state-of-the-art models demonstrates its superior performance in terms of accuracy, training time, and model complexity. Notably, the proposed model achieves a 50% reduction in training time and a 55.7% decrease in complexity compared to the Attnsleep model. The EASM achieves a classification accuracy of 85.8% with minimum loss when compared to the Attnsleep model.

Graphene doped spray dried ceramic nano oxides for high capacity battery electrodes
Electric vehicles or portable electronic devices have come to rely heavily upon electrochemical devices, such as rechargeable batteries with optimum charge discharge characteristics, current ratings, charge-discharge rate (rate capability), cyclability etc. to perform under the expected service conditions. One of the goals of a rechargeable battery materials researcher is to fabricate materials to realize solid-state batteries with high reliability and lithium-air batteries with ultimate capacities. Most of the materials although possess high theoretical energy density values: invariably suffer from inferior cyclic performance. The performance of these batteries is guided by the electrodes within these devices which in turn depend upon the materials used to fabricate them. Chemical composition and its uniformity, consistency in microstructural features, and adequate choice of various layers that may be in the form of coatings to be overlaid on the base materials mostly comprised of ceramic oxides such as oxides of Li doped with niobates, manganates, vanadate etc. with carbon or graphene coated over layers to provide with the suitable interfacial conductivity as electrode materials in Li-ion batteries. The interfacial layers and the mechanism of interfacial phenomena encompassing the grains play a significant role in determining the performance. Optimum microstructure is obtained by choosing the right processing equipment and spray drying the composition in slurry form provides the most optimum solution. Further, spray drying offers high potential for a transfer from a lab scale technology to industrial level extrapolation. In this paper, nano graphene has been spray dried along with nano alumina grains in water media and polyvinyl alcohol binder to ascertain the free flowability, consistency in formation of graphene over layer on alumina grains as well as uniformity in graphene on alumina composition. The free flowing spray dried graphene coated alumina powders were analysed via SEM, EDS and XRD and results are presented. Additional information based on a review conducted on published information on most popular compositions in terms of electrode materials such as in Li-ion, sodium-ion etc have also been included. In the review section the rapidly increasing literature on spray drying of solutions and suspensions are also included. Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN BRICS NATIONS PRE AND POST COVID-19
abuse; BRICS; domestic violence; gender; law; women
The most common kind of sexual or physical abuse suffered by women is that by a partner. Human rights are violated when males or boys use violence against women or girls. When it comes to domestic abuse, it is estimated that one in three women will experience some kind of gender-based violence at some point in their lives. The number of women who have been abused by a romantic partner or a non-relationship sexual partner is estimated to reach 736 million. For years, the worlds leaders have recognised its seriousness. In 1995, the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action said that violence against women must be eliminated. Within the UNs 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, aworldwide goal to abolish all kinds of violence against women and girls in public and private spaces was added. Global action was called for in 2016 by the World Health Assemblys Resolution 69.5, which urged anational multisector approach to combating violence against women and young girls. In spite of all of these responsibilities, 49 countries still dont have a clear policy on domestic abuse. Lower and lower-middle-income women nations are particularly vulnerable to this violence, which has long-term effects on their health and well-being. In the worlds poorest nations, women aged 15 to 49 have a lifetime frequency of domestic abuse of 37 percent. One in every four women who have ever been in a relationship has been a victim of domestic abuse at some point in their lives. 2023, University of Tyumen. All rights reserved.
