Title A name given to the resource A Novel Threshold based Method for Vessel Intensity Detection and Extraction from Retinal Images Subject The topic of the resource and segmentation; blood vessel detection; cumulative distribution function introduction; hysteresis thresholding; Retinal images; segmentation Description An account of the resource Retinal vessel segmentation is an active research area in medical image processing. Several research outcomes on retinal vessel segmentation have emerged in recent years. Each method has its own pros and cons, either in the vessel detection stage or in its extraction. Based on a detailed empirical investigation, a novel retinal vessel extraction architecture is proposed, which makes use of a couple of existing algorithms. In the proposed algorithm, vessel detection is carried out using a cumulative distribution function-based thresholding scheme. The resultant vessel intensities are extracted based on the hysteresis thresholding scheme. Experiments are carried out with retinal images from DRIVE and STARE databases. The results in terms of Sensitivity, Specificity, and Accuracy are compared with five standard methods. The proposed method outperforms all methods in terms of Sensitivity and Accuracy for the DRIVE data set, whereas for STARE, the performance is comparable with the best method. 2021.

Title A name given to the resource A Dual Step Strategy for Retinal Thin Vessel Enhancement/Extraction Subject The topic of the resource Blood Vessel; CLAHE; Eye Fundus; FHBE; Fusion; Image Enhancement; Vessel Extraction Description An account of the resource Blood vessel extraction from retinal images is a challenging and fundamental step in pathological analysis. Most of the vessel extraction algorithms face difficulty in the extraction of thin vessels. In this paper, a dual step strategy for retinal thin vessel enhancement/extraction is proposed. Since thin vessel pixels have intensities closer to the background non-vessel pixels, the first level enhancement algorithms usually suffers in its accurate extraction. This led to explore a novel idea of eliminating the effects of thick vessel pixels in a reference image, via replacing it with neighboring non-vessel pixels. By applying second level enhancement on the vessel subtracted image, thin vessels are projected and improvement in extraction is attained subjectively as well as objectively. 2019 IEEE.

Title A name given to the resource An Efficient Preprocessing Step for Retinal Vessel Segmentation via Optic Nerve Head Exclusion Subject The topic of the resource Fundus image enhancement; Optic nerve head; Preprocessing; Retinal vessel segmentation Description An account of the resource Retinal vessel segmentation plays a significant role for accurate diagnostics of ophthalmic diseases. In this paper, a novel preprocessing step for retinal vessel segmentation via optic nerve head exclusion is proposed. The idea relies in the fact that the exclusion of brighter optic nerve head prior to contrast enhancement process can better enhance the blood vessels for accurate segmentation. A histogram based intensity thresholding scheme is introduced in order to extract the optic nerve head which is then replaced by its surrounding background pixels. The efficacy of the proposed preprocessing step is established by segmenting the retinal vessels from the optic nerve head excluded image enhanced using CLAHE algorithm. Experimental works are carried out with fundus images from DRIVE database. It shows that 1%3% of improvement in terms of TPR measure is achieved. 2019, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Title A name given to the resource A Novel Fuzzy-Based Thresholding Approach for Blood Vessel Segmentation from Fundus Image Subject The topic of the resource blood vessel segmentation; fundus images; fuzzy thresholding; IsoData; mean-c; thresholding techniques Description An account of the resource Retinal vessel segmentation is a vital part of pathological analysis in Fundus imaging. The automatic detection of blood vessels resolves several issues in the manual segmentation process. Most unsupervised segmentation methods depend on conventional thresholding techniques for final vessel extraction. It may lead to the loss of some vessel pixels, leading to inaccurate analysis of retinal diseases. In this work, we incorporate fuzzy concepts into two threshold-based vessel detection methods, namely mean-c thresholding and Iso-Data thresholding, which results in a mask consisting of membership values rather than binary values. The two fuzzy-based thresholding algorithms are applied independently on each image, and the resultant membership image (mask) is fused to get a single membership mask. The fusion is performed using fuzzy union operation. Experiments are carried out with Fundus images from DRIVE, STARE and CHASE_DB1 databases.ses. The proposed fusion framework gives a 3%, 6%, and 5% increase in sensitivity compared to traditional thresholding methods when applied to the DRIVE, STARE, and CHASE_DB1 databases, respectively. The accuracy obtained for the datasets is 96.02%, 94.57%, and 94.34%, respectively. 2023 by the authors.

Title A name given to the resource A Fusion Based Approach for Blood Vessel Segmentation from Fundus Images by Separating Brighter Optic Disc Subject The topic of the resource blood vessel segmentation; fundus images; image fusion; optic disc Description An account of the resource Abstract: In ophthalmology, blood vessel segmentation from fundus images plays a significant role in automated retinal disease screening systems. Several research papers on blood vessel segmentation suggest enhancing fundus images before segmentation significantly to improve performance. The brightness of the optic disc region in a fundus image negatively influences the enhancement of relatively darker vessel pixels. Segregation of brighter optic disc from fundus images before its enhancement is the fundamental idea behind developing the proposed framework. Initially, the optic disc is extracted from the input fundus image to form two images, one containing optical disc and the other, fundus image without optical disk. In the second stage, both the images are enhanced independently, followed by blood vessel segmentation. Finally, the segmented blood vessels from the images are fused to obtain a single image. Experiments conducted with fundus images from DRIVE, STARE, and CHASE_DB1 databases show improvement in the identification of blood vessel pixels. 2021, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

Title A name given to the resource Cuda implementation of non-local means algorithm for GPU processors Subject The topic of the resource CUDA; GPGPU; Image denoising; Non local means filtering; NVIDIA Description An account of the resource Non-Local Means algorithm (NLM) is a prominent image denoising algorithm. One of the major limitations of NLM algorithm and its variants is the time requirement. In this era of high performance computing, an efficient alternative to reduce the time complexity of any algorithm is its parallelization. In this paper, a parallelized version of basic NLM algorithm using CUDA architecture is proposed. The algorithm is developed on NVIDIA GeForce 940M GPU which follows Maxwell architecture with 3 SMs and 384 CUDA cores. Experiments are carried out using selected set of natural and medical images of various sizes. Our proposed parallelized version of NLM algorithm reduces the time requirement approximately by 50% in comparison to its basic version and also achieves comparable denoising performance in terms of PSNR, SSIM and FSIM evaluation metrics. The proposal is a model which can be customized for newer GPU architectures. 2020, Engg Journals Publications. All rights reserved.

Title A name given to the resource PEGylated Platinum Nanoparticles: A Comprehensive Study of Their Analgesic and Anti-Inflammatory Effects Subject The topic of the resource Analgesic property; Anti-inflammatory Property; Cytotoxicity; DPPH assay; Platinum nanoparticles; Polyethylene glycol Description An account of the resource Pain and inflammation are common symptoms of a majority of the diseases. Chronic pain and inflammation, as well as related dreadful disorders, remain difficult to control due to a lack of safe and effective medications. In this work, biocompatible platinum nanoparticles with significant analgesic and anti-inflammatory action were synthesized through a wet chemical method using polyethylene glycol-400 as a capping agent and sodium borohydride as a reducing agent. The average particle size of these Pt nanospheres was determined to be 3.26 nm using TEM analysis, and X-ray diffraction confirmed their face-centered cubic crystalline structure. Fourier transform infrared and UV-visible spectroscopy confirm that Pt-NPs are coated with the PEG-400 molecule. The significantly negative zeta potential value (?26.8 mV) indicates the stability of the produced nanoparticles. In vitro cytotoxicity studies on normal cell lines show nontoxic behavior with over 96% cell viability at 100 ?g/mL of the test sample. In vitro assays of inhibition of protein denaturation and DPPH free radical scavenging elucidated the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of PEGylated Pt NPs with promising EC50 values 57.99 and 9.324 ?g/mL, respectively. In vivo animal trials confirmed that PEG-capped Pt-NPs are more effective than conventional medicines. The in vivo hot plate assay for the analgesic study shows a maximum response time of 14.5 1.22 s (92.54% analgesia) at a dosage of 50 mg/kg and 13.8 0.71 s (86.05% analgesia) at a dosage of 25 mg/kg after 180 and 240 min of administration, respectively. In the rat paw edema model for anti-inflammatory activity, the PEG-capped Pt NPs exhibit significant inhibitory action, with the maximum percentage of edema inhibition at a dosage of 50 mg/kg identical to that of the aspirin-based standard medication administered at a higher dosage of 100 mg/kg, resulting in 42% inhibition, suggesting a versatile solution for inflammation and persistent pain. 2025 American Chemical Society.

Title A name given to the resource Microwave assisted structural engineering on efficient eco-friendly natural dye alizarin for dye sensitized solar cells application Subject The topic of the resource DFT; Dye sensitized solar cells; Fluorescence quenching; HOMO-LUMO; Photoinduced electron transfer Description An account of the resource The novel eco-friendly natural dyes, (9E, 10E), ? 9, 10-bis(2-(4-nitrobenzylidene) hydrazono) ? 9,10 dihydroanthracene-1,2-diol (NHA) have been synthesised using the one-pot microwave-assisted solvent evaporation method, and physicochemical characterizations were carried out using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, GC-MS, and FT-IR data. The photophysical properties of NHA dye were determined using experimental and theoretical techniques. The Stoke's shift shows a large bathochromic shift in polar solvents, which is due to the ??? * transition. The ground-state optimization of NHA dye was carried out using density functional theory (DFT) with the B3LYP/631 G level basis set. The HOMO-LUMO and energy band gap values computed from density functional theory and absorption threshold wavelengths are good agreement with each other. Further, the effect of TiO2 nanoparticles on NHA dye has been studied using spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques. It was observed that, NHA dye showed fluorescence quenching in the presence of TiO2 NPs, which is due to the photo induced electron transfer process. The apparent association constant of the interaction between NHA dye and TiO2 nanoparticles is also calculated using the Benesi-Hildebrand model. The Rehm-Weller relation infers that thermodynamically favourable electron transfer takes place between dyes and TiO2 NPs. Further, the solar cell was constructed using NHA dye as a sensitizer, and the photovoltaic conversion efficiency was found to be 1.16%. 2023 Elsevier GmbH Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Walki S.; Madar M.; Suresha S.; Kalarakoppa K.; Shetty V.R.; Refat M.S.; Alsuhaibani A.M.; Al-Humaidi J.Y.; Savanur H.M.; Naik L.

Title A name given to the resource Heat and mass transfer of AgH2O nano-thin film flowing over a porous medium: A modified Buongiorno's model Subject The topic of the resource Porous medium; Temperature slip; Thermal radiation; Thin films; Velocity slip Description An account of the resource Due to their numerous applications, such as fibre and wire coating, polymer preparation, etc., thin films have recently come into focus in the analysis of heat and mass transport. As a result, the current article's main objective is to investigate how heat and mass are transferred when an AgH2O (sliverwater) thin film flows past a stretching sheet that is subject to thermal and velocity slips. The research takes into account other variables including porosity, thermal radiation, thermophoresis, and Brownian motion, among others, to ensure that the outcomes are consistent with real-world conditions. Along with these parameters, the impact of the nanoparticle volume fraction is also analysed by incorporating the modified model of the existing Buongiorno model. The resulting mathematical model is transformed into ordinary differential equations with the help of appropriate similarity transformation. The system of equations thus obtained is solved by employing the RKF-45 technique and the outcomes are expressed in terms of graphs and tables. The major outcomes indicate that the increase in the mixed convection parameter causes enhancement in the temperature profile while a reduction in the velocity profile. The thermophoresis is found to increase both the temperature and concentration profiles of the thin film. Whereas, the greater values of the volume fraction of the nanoparticles enhance the temperature and diminishes the velocity. 2023 The Physical Society of the Republic of China (Taiwan) Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Wang F.; Saeed A.M.; Puneeth V.; Shah N.A.; Anwar M.S.; Geudri K.; Eldin S.M.

Title A name given to the resource Regarding Deeper Properties of the Fractional Order Kundu-Eckhaus Equation and Massive Thirring Model Subject The topic of the resource Caputo fractional derivative; Fractional Kundu-Eckhaus equation; fractional massive Thirring model; fractional natural decomposition method; numerical method Description An account of the resource In this paper, the fractional natural decomposition method (FNDM) is employed to find the solution for the Kundu-Eckhaus equation and coupled fractional differential equations describing the massive Thirring model. The massive Thirring model consists of a system of two nonlinear complex differential equations, and it plays a dynamic role in quantum field theory. The fractional derivative is considered in the Caputo sense, and the projected algorithm is a graceful mixture of Adomian decomposition scheme with natural transform technique. In order to illustrate and validate the efficiency of the future technique, we analyzed projected phenomena in terms of fractional order. Moreover, the behaviour of the obtained solution has been captured for diverse fractional order. The obtained results elucidate that the projected technique is easy to implement and very effective to analyze the behaviour of complex nonlinear differential equations of fractional order arising in the connected areas of science and engineering. 2022 Tech Science Press.

Title A name given to the resource Toward sustainability 4.0: A comprehensive analysis of sustainability in corporate environment Subject The topic of the resource Circular economy; Corporate sustainable responsibility; Green Building Information Management; Green Internet of Things; Greenhouse gas emissions; Net-zero energy buildings Description An account of the resource Sustainability is one of the key requirements for any business, and continuously changing business requirements and the environment are the main drivers of sustainable business practices. However, there exist gaps in recognizing and aligning these sustainable practices with everyday operational activities. This study's aim is to explore the current awareness level in business leaders and stakeholders about corporate responsibility toward sustainability and reflects on the obstacles encountered by them in diverse built environments, laying the groundwork for addressing these hurdles and contributing toward the overall sustainable development. The study has two major findings: the analysis revealed that there is a paradigm shift in the understanding of sustainability; in contrast to earlier publications, newer publications focus on technological advancements such as the use of "Green Building Information Management" and "Green Internet of Things" illustrating the real-time implications of sustainable practices. Further analysis found a knowledge gap that exists among business leaders in understanding the concept of sustainable development. This, in essence, poses a burden for corporate leaders to keep up with ongoing technological developments. The study concludes that to achieve sustainable growth, leadership in the corporate environment needs a 360-degree view of sustainability, allowing them to assign equal value to the environment, social, and economic pillars of sustainability to address the current issues leveraging from the state-of-the-art technological innovations.

Title A name given to the resource An Improved Combined Adaptive Outline for Contrast Enhancement of Blood Vessels Subject The topic of the resource Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE); Brightness preserving bi-histogram equalization (BBHE); Contrast enhancement; Histogram equalization (HE) Description An account of the resource Appropriate vascular segmentation is dependent on effective picture pre-processing techniques that improve the contrast of the blood vessels, reduce noise, eliminate non-uniform illumination, highlight thin vessels, and retain background texture. These techniques are necessary for accurate vessel segmentation. Here, both the edge- and texture-smoothed data from the vessel probability map are used in the derivation of the adaptive optimal q-order in the G-L mask. The smooth information is not affected, the textures are maintained, and the contrast of the blood vessels is enhanced, thanks to the proposed filter. In addition to sharpening the focus on the vessels themselves, a Gaussian curve fitting is used to contrast stretch the entire image. Retinal fundus images processed with cerebral DSA are subjected to both qualitative and quantitative assessments of contrast enhancement. Quantitative performance indicators are tabulated and compared to other approaches to show how well this technique works for improving medical images everywhere.

Title A name given to the resource A meta-ethnographic synthesis of lived experience of spouse caregivers in chronic illness Subject The topic of the resource family caregiving; health; Qualitative synthesis; social work practice Description An account of the resource Social workers routinely work with chronically ill, providing support for long term care. Several qualitative studies describe the experiences of the person and carer in a chronic illness. There is a limited synthesis of these experiences to aid practice. The current review aims to present a synthesis of the experiences of the spouses of chronically ill persons reported in the literature. A comprehensive search of electronic databases was done, and the studies were selected using PRISMA guidelines. The selected studies were subjected to quality check using CASP guidelines and a score was assigned to each of those studies. Later, qualitative synthesis of the results of the selected studies was done using the principles of meta-ethnography. 2407 studies published between 19992019 were identified and 22 studies were included in the final synthesis. The number of participants in the studies reviewed was 309, with more representation of females. The reciprocal synthesis of these studies identified loss, change, caregiving and exhaustion, barriers in providing care, illness experience, coping, socio-cultural norms and support as common themes from the accounts of the participants. Continuity of change was identified as the core concept in the lived experience of the spouses of chronically ill persons. Illness, loss and Lived experience is proposed as a model of the lived experience of the spouses. Through this synthesis, the factors influencing the lived experience of spouse caregivers is understood, which can help social work professionals in the health sector in planning interventions for the spouses of chronically ill persons.

Title A name given to the resource Development of Guidelines for Spouses Engaged in Home-Based Care of Persons With Motor Neuron Disease From Indian Context Subject The topic of the resource guidelines; home-based care; interpretative phenomenological analysis; motor neuron disease; spouse caregivers Description An account of the resource Background: The caregivers of persons with motor neuron disease (MND) have several needs that are usually not voiced on any platform. Aim: To explore the lived experience of spouses of persons with MND, identify their needs and develop guidelines for better home-based care. Method: An exploratory study with 3-point in-depth interviews among 13 participants was conducted. Participants were the spouses of persons with MND under treatment at a national quaternary referral center. The interpretative phenomenological analysis identified participants needs. These needs, with literature review synthesis, guided the drafting of guidelines, which was validated by experts. Results: The needs were emotional, social, care systems, and skills. The guidelines developed contained 2 sections (1) Information for the spouses: understanding MND, communication, symptom management, marital relationship, palliative care, and everyday life made easier. (2) Well-being of the spouse caregivers: well-being of the spouse caregivers, self-care, mental health, supporting carers in palliative care, where to find help. Conclusion: The guidelines can be developed as a manual for the caregivers and for training healthcare professionals working with neurodegenerative conditions. The Author(s) 2022.

Title A name given to the resource Facile combustion synthesis of highly active Mo doped BiVO4 for photocatalytic dye degradation, photo-oxidation of alcohols, antifungal and antioxidant activities Subject The topic of the resource alcohol oxidation; antifungal; antioxidant; dye degradation; green synthesis; Molybdenum-doped bismuth vanadate; photocatalysis Description An account of the resource This work represents the facile and green synthesis of Molybdenum (Mo)-doped bismuth vanadate (BiVO4). Green synthesis of Mo-doped BiVO4 was done using combustion technique using Mangifera indica (Mango) leaf extract as the fuel for combustion. The material synthesised was pure and characterised using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, ultravioletvisible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL). It was found that Mo-doped BiVO4 had monoclinic scheelite phase, with a bandgap of 3.71eV. Various application was possible from the synthesised material like photodegradation of Malachite Green, a typical organic which showed excellent degradation efficiency of 99% under 120minutes. The catalyst also gave up to 95% yields in the light-assisted oxidation of aromatic alcohols to corresponding aldehydes. The material also showed excellent antioxidant properties showing 6.7g of ascorbic acid equivalence (AAE). It gave an excellent minimum lethal dosage (MLD) of 500g against Penicillium and Trichoderma fungal strains and showed maximum of 32 mm zone of inhibition. These applications show the versatility of the material to be used in various fields. 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.
