CDADITagger: An Approach Towards Content Based Annotations Driven Image Tagging Integrating Hybrid Semantics
Considering the rapid growth of multimedia data, especially images, image tagging is considered the most efficient way to organize or retrieve images. The significance of image tagging is growing extensively but the frameworks employed for tagging these images aren't sophisticated. These images aren't properly tagged because of a lack of resources for tagging or manual tagging is a challenging task considering such voluminous data. Already existing frameworks take both the image data and tag-related textual data but ultimately resulted in mediocre or unpalatable performance as they are dataset centered. To overcome these limitations in existing frameworks we proposed an image tagging mechanism, CDADITagger capable of automatically tagging images efficiently and much more reliable compared to existing frameworks. This framework can tackle real-world applications like tagging a new unknown image as the framework isn't powered by dataset alone but is designed to inculcate images from search engines like Google, Bing, etc. to have comprehensive knowledge of real-time data. These images are classified using CNN and tag-related textual data is classified using decision trees for enhanced performance. While tagging images from the classified tags, are sorted based on the semantic computation values, only the top 50% of the instances classified are selected. The tags which are more correlated to the image are ranked and finalized. The proposed semantically inclined framework CDADITagger outshined the well-established frameworks with an accuracy of 96.60% and a precision of 95.84% making it a more reliable approach. 2022 IEEE. -
Simulation and Experimental Analysis of L-Section in Reinforced Cement Concrete: Uncertainties in Performance and Strength
The design and construction of reinforced cement concrete (RCC) flooring play a crucial role in the overall stability of a structure, particularly in regions prone to tectonic activity. RCC floors comprise various beams, including intermediate T-sections and specific L-sections at critical points such as corners and around staircases or lift openings. This paper identifies a key challenge in building frameworks to resist tectonic loads. It further explores the components of the structure that provide potential for interruption, capability, and the safe transfer of tectonic loading to the array connection, all while maintaining sufficient strength. The L-sections were experimented on using various grades of concrete and sizes to reinforce connections under diverse loading conditions. L-sections contribute to reducing floor height, solving economic and technical problems, and creating advanced composite connections that integrate the proposed structural system. The analysis was conducted both analytically and experimentally to assess methods to resist earthquake forces based on stiffness, building strength, and elasticity capacity. These approaches have been identified to safeguard buildings during substantial seismic events. The development of the L-section is detailed, highlighting the loading process and the capacity to overcome various structural challenges. 2024 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. -

Automatic Classification of Normal and Affected Vegetables Based on Back Propagation Neural Network and Machine Vision
This article presents a neural network and machine vision-based approach to classify the vegetables as normal or affected. The farmers will have great difficulty if there is a change from one disease control to another. The examination through an open eye to classify the diseases by name is more expensive. The texture and color features are used to identify and classify different vegetables into normal or affected using a neural network and machine vision. The mixture of both the features is proved to be more effective. The results of experiments show that the proposed methodology extensively supports the accuracy in automatic detection of affected and normal vegetables. The applications in packing and grading of vegetables are the outcome of this research article. 2019, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. -

Climate Risks in an Unequal Society: The Question of Climate Justice in India
Over the past few decades, India has witnessed the brunt of climate change impacts in multiple dimensions. Notably, recent years' experiences prove that there has been a substantial increase in the intensity, frequency, and duration of climate-related risks and extreme events, resulting in an acceleration of the nexus between climate change and inequities. Despite the growing advancements of socioeconomic research on current and future climate change risks in India, the explorations through the lens of legal perspectives are still limited and have not met the demands. This chapter argues for rethinking legal perspectives of climate justice in India by drawing insights from two recent climate extreme events. To begin with, this chapter briefly reviews the historical background of the global actions to combat climate inequities and injustices and identifies the ways in which climate injustices perpetuate. For this, it adopts three main principles of climate justice, consisting of equity, a rights-based approach, and sustainability. Following this, it discusses India's climate policy and the existing institutional framework and actions to respond to climate change at the national and state levels. Then, by focusing on the climate change impacts on India, it introduces two recent climate-related risk events in India, and it discusses the unequal structuration of climate risks and the resulting more vulnerable and precarious situation of the marginal sections of the society that already faces multiple social injustices of Indian society. At the end of the cases, it briefly offers a critique of the climate change action plans of the respective states. This chapter concludes by outlining a few strategies to create a more sustainable and equitable approach toward climate governance and justice by strengthening the legal and institutional dispensations of the climate regime in India.

Genetic Modification of Enzymes for Biomass Hydrolysis
Lignocellulose biomass is an economically viable and most abundant energy source. The synthesis of renewable energy-based fuel from lignocellulosic biomass is a replacement for fossil fuel. Cellulases are the biocatalysts that hydrolyze the ?-1,4-glycosidic bond in cellulose to release carbohydrate moieties that can be converted to ethanol, butanol, and other compounds. However, little enzymatic activity and product yield, and thermal stability are hurdles in the deconstruction of lignocellulose. Current progress in synthetic and omics technologies has resulted in several works in metabolic and genetic engineering that have paved the way for efficient conversion of lignocellulose to fuel in the last decades. Several works have attempted to apply genetic and metabolic engineering in the synthesis of stable and highly active cellulases at lower cost. This chapter reviews various genetic engineering technologies for enhancing cellulase synthesis and catalytic efficiency. 2024 selection and editorial matter, Reeta Rani Singhania, Anil Kumar Patel, Htor A.

Performance of second law in Carreau fluid flow by an inclined microchannel with radiative heated convective condition
This investigation addresses the novel characteristics of entropy production in the fully-developed heat transport of non-Newtonian Carreau fluid in an inclined microchannel. The physical effects of Roseland thermal radiation and viscous heating are included in the energy equation. The no-slip boundary condition for velocity and convective type heating boundary conditions for temperature are also accounted. Mathematical modeling included the non-Newtonian Carreau fluid model.

Heat transfer and entropy generation analysis of non-Newtonian fluid flow through vertical microchannel with convective boundary condition
The entropy generation and heat transfer characteristics of magnetohydro-dynamic (MHD) third-grade fluid flow through a vertical porous microchannel with a convective boundary condition are analyzed. Entropy generation due to flow of MHD non-Newtonian third-grade fluid within a microchannel and temperature-dependent viscosity is studied using the entropy generation rate and Vogels model. The equations describing flow and heat transport along with boundary conditions are first made di-mensionless using proper non-dimensional transformations and then solved numerically via the finite element method (FEM). An appropriate comparison is made with the pre-viously published results in the literature as a limiting case of the considered problem. The comparison confirms excellent agreement. The effects of the Grashof number, the Hartmann number, the Biot number, the exponential space-and thermal-dependent heat source (ESHS/THS) parameters, and the viscous dissipation parameter on the temperature and velocity are studied and presented graphically. The entropy generation and the Bejan number are also calculated. From the comprehensive parametric study, it is recognized that the production of entropy can be improved with convective heating and viscous dissipation aspects. It is also found that the ESHS aspect dominates the THS aspect. Shanghai University and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019. -
Irreversibility analysis of the MHD Williamson fluid flow through a microchannel with thermal radiation
The heat transport and non-Newtonian fluid (Williamson fluid) flow through a micro-channel are considered to analyze the entropy generation minimization using the thermodynamic second law. The energy equations have been modeled with the addition of joule heating, heat source, and thermal radiation. The use of suitable dimensionless transformation helps to convert the modeled flow equations into non-dimensional coupled ODEs. The numerical simulations are done via the Finite Element Method. The current outcomes are constructed to examine the behavior of various flow parameters and presented via graphs. It is found that the rise of heat source and Reynolds number Re decays/boosts the entropy rate Ns and the Bejan number Be profile near the left/right plate, and reverse behavior is noticed for the thermal radiation parameter. 2022 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. -
Covid-19 Classification and Detection Model using Deep Learning
One of the deadly diseases in recent years is covid19 which is affecting the lives of peoples. Also leading to severe adverse problems and death. Prevention is done using early diagnosis and medication which in turn helps in early detection of the disease. The basic aim of the paper is to identify and further classify the patients using the chest x-rays. From scratch the Convolutional Neural Network is diagnosed producing a very high accurate and optimum results. In recent years, researchers found out that in the radiological images such as like x-rays, the traces of covid-19 can be found. In few areas, a good accuracy of the covid-19 detection cannot be achieved due to lack of the people who test so the artificial intelligence is combined with the radiological image. In machine learning the models used are deep learning by automatizing the actions and making it certain by swift, skillful and proficient outcome produced by the chest images provided by the patients. There are several layers like convolutional layer, max pooling layer etc. which are initiated and are used with aid of ReLU activation function. These images given as inputs are also classified accordingly. There is a sequence of neurons being given as input to the active dense layer and there is a result to the input by a sigmoidal function. There is a rise in efficiency because the models are trained and there is a decline of loss at the same time. If there is a model where fitting is done earlier to the overfitting and is restricted from implementing in the data augmentation. There is a better and efficient involvement of suggestions to models of deep learning. Further there is a classification of chest images for identifying and analyzing covid19. So, to check the Covid detection, the images are used as raw. In this paper a model is proposed to have good accuracy in the classification between Covid and normal and further it can be classified into three categories like Covid, pneumonia, normal. There is a 98.08% for the first one and 87.02% for the second one. By introducing 17 convolutional layers and using the Darknet model used for classifying you only look once (YOLO) for the live identification of the objects and multiple layers of filters are used. In the model there is an initial screening. 2022 IEEE. -
