COVID-19: Trend analysis for market arrival of green gram in India
The unprecedented crisis hovering over the world due to Covid-19 pandemic has structurally impacted every sector of the world economy. This paper attempts to study the impact of ongoing pandemic in the agricultural sector specific to pulses in India. This paper finds that there is a significantly negative impact of Covid-19 on the pulses market. The market arrival of pulses has declined in the recent period while market demand for pulses has increased, therefore, there exists a supply side shortage for pulses in the domestic economy of India. This paper suggests that Government of India (Agriculture Department) urgently needs to deal with this shortage in supply of domestic pulses in "mandis" (agricultural markets). In this paper market arrival for pulses particularly green gram (Moong whole) has been forecasted for the next few months in Indian Agricultural Markets with the forecasting techniques such as Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) technique for pre and during pandemic period by using the arrival data in agriculture markets of India from Agmarknet. The results of this study using ARIMA models and ANNs have been compared to obtain the final conclusions with higher visibility in forecasting performance, which shows that there will be a sharp decline in market arrival with an average arrival of 494 quintals per day which can be maximized up to 623 quintals per day by stimulating the modal price at maximum possible point. Therefore, the urgent need of upscaling the technical efficiency of the farmers in different agro-climatic zones is needed to meet the domestic demand with domestic supply. 2020 DAV College.

Coyote optimization algorithm for optimal allocation of interline Photovoltaic battery storage system in islanded electrical distribution network considering EV load penetration
In current times, there is a need to do power system planning to endure situations of any kind. An islanding operation is one such unavoidable situation that may be required in many cases for both technical and economic reasons. First and foremost, this paper focuses on the determination of the best allotment of Interline-Photovoltaic (I-PV) system as per Electric Vehicle (EV) load penetration in the network. With different operational constraints, a multi-objective optimization using real power loss and voltage deviation index is formulated and solved using the Coyote Optimization Algorithm (COA).The paper highlights the computational efficiency of COA with Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO), in addition to various literary works, and the results suggest the superiority of COA by its global optima. The required battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity for supplying an islanded network's entire load demand for a day is determined in the second stage. The simulations were carried out on the IEEE 33-bus electrical distribution network (EDN) contemplating different levels of EV load penetration. The proposed methodology results have proved that the required energy is provided by optimal I-PV-BESS backup for a daylong islanding operation and its adaptability for practical situations. 2021 Elsevier Ltd -
CPAODV: Classifying and Assigning 3 Level Preference to the Nodes in VANET Using AODV Based CBAODV Algorithm
Vehicles communicate with nearby vehicles to share high routing and traffic information in Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) environment. Congestion and Delay in the transmission may occur due to the density of the nodes in the network. Traffic condition depends on the vehicles in Rural and Urban environment. Increase or Decrease in vehicles speed makes significant network changes when compared to the MANET environment. Road Side Terminals (RSTs) plays a major role in bridging the connection between the sender and the receiver nodes. The traditional AODV algorithm performs better when there are shortest path and link lifetime between the nodes in VANET. Giving 3 Level Preference to the nodes as High Preference (HP), Average Preference (AP) and Less Preference (LP) gives chances to nodes that have High Preference when compared to Less Preference. CPAODV model is proposed by implementing Classifying and giving preference to the RREQ to mitigate latency to the nodes. RST sends RREQ wisely based on the early model of Route Discovery stage itself. NS2 Simulator is used to analyze the strength of the proposed algorithm using QoS metrics like Throughput, Packet Delivery Ratio and End to End delay. This proposed CPAODV method performs better when compared to traditional AODV and CBAODV algorithm. 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG. -

Creating inclusive spaces in virtual classroom sessions during the COVID pandemic: An exploratory study of primary class teachers in India
The research paper reports insights into the primary class teachers experiences and inclusive methodologies in India during virtual class sessions. Teaching online during the COVID pandemic has turned out to be an adaptive and transformative challenge for teachers. Though Indian teachers are used to the chalk-and-talk method, an online setup has compelled them to discover innovative strategies to maintain an inclusive classroom. It was found that teachers are using puppetry, storytelling, energizers, ice-breakers in their sessions to make it engaging. An in-depth study was undertaken to understand the experiences of five primary class teachers from private schools in India. Data thus collected were analyzed qualitatively. The study results demonstrated that the teachers had improved professionally they have become independent in using the internet and exploring new ways of teaching them per their needs. Nevertheless, it was also found that the schools lack support, fear among the teachers of being asked to quit the job, blocking students from the online class if they fail to pay the fees, and exorbitant salary cuts. The challenges related to young students were - lack of proper resources for online sessions, low attention span, technical distractions, lack of physical development, excessive interference of the parents and lack of socialization. The paper concludes with policy proposals regarding standardized online education platforms and provisions for proper resources for virtual class sessions to marginalized families to minimize India's digital divide. 2021 -

Creativity Education in India: Breaking Barriers
Classrooms in India are posed with challenges of rigid curriculum demands, lack of resources, large class sizes and very often low motivation levels among teachers. Add to that poor teacher training facilities. Given the constraints, the pursuit of encouraging creativity education in the Indian schooling system seems like a tall order. The aim of this chapter is to explore the scope for creative learning and expression in Indian classrooms. The purpose is also to search for education models that facilitate and encourage creativity amongst children by adapting the curriculum to their advantage and operate within the constraints imposed by systemic drawbacks. The chapter searches for a coherent, pragmatic definition of creativity among practitioners and pedagogues with the rationale of identifying workable solutions for dissemination of creativity education in Indian classrooms. The methodology entails conversations and interviews with teachers, curriculum planners and pedagogues representing different education models and schooling systems in India. A case-study design approach is assumed to present programs that are successfully implementing practices which encourage creativity learning among their students. An attempt is made to highlight the philosophical beliefs that underlie adoption of such practices as well as to document the challenges and demands that such an endeavour imposes on the system. The chapter therefore, provides an optimistic view of the future of out of the box learning not only in the Indian classrooms but also makes a case for all education systems stifled by curriculum constraints and lack of resources.

Credit card fraud detection using ANN
Fraud on its own was and is devastating a lot of businesses, be them small or large. Particularly in the field of finance where we can see constant attacks on both individuals and enterprises alike. As such, credit cards are the most targeted as they are linked to both personal information and accounts. It is also evident to say that credit card fraud detection research is very much needed to deter and mitigate the impact of fraud on the financial field in general. It is important to identify frauds before it is too late so that the stolen credit card cannot be used for fraudulent transactions. To effectively detect these fraud transactions, we use a data consisting of fraudulent and non-fraudulent transactions to create a model that classifies these transactions with a high accuracy based on a machine learning technique. We used Artificial Neural Network with Logistic Regression to measure and in order to achieve high accuracy, we refined the parameters using the algorithms Back-propagation which has proved to have a high accuracy rate giving the model the ability to distinguish a fraudulent transaction from a normal one.
