Effective storage of goods in a warehouse using farm optimisation algorithm
Effective organisation of a warehouse's incoming goods section is important for its productivity as ensuring efficient shelving systems. When the incoming goods section is not properly configured, this almost automatically causes major interruptions throughout the subsequent storage phase. For effective storage of goods in warehouse farm optimisation algorithm (FOA) is proposed. The efficacy of the proposed approach was demonstrated using BR datasets and it is compared with different optimisation algorithms. From this experiment, it is noted that the suggested FOA fulfils the objective of efficient arrangement of goods in the warehouse. The order in which the goods are placed into the warehouse is also noted to be ideal than other competitive optimisation algorithms. 2020 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.. All rights reserved. -
Effective proactive routing protocol using smart nodes system
Small Power Restricted Unit (PRU) platform known as the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) to monitor a Large Region of Interest (ROI) and send data to the Base Station (BS). Accurately capturing the ROI and communicating observed information to the BS over the longest period is indeed the main problem facing WSN. Despite the latest introduction of many power routing algorithms in regular monitoring applications, the variable environment and complex environment for WSN applications end up creating these procedures as an important task. This study Degree Restricted Tree (DRE) nodes for such networks, including a BS outside of the ROI in a homogeneous pre-emptive WSN. The optimal degree of a node with low DRT energy consumption is determined because the degree of a node affects the network lifespan of these forms of connections. To provide an equitable distribution of the burden in terms of transmission power, this study then suggests a Joint Decentralized Antenna (JDA) algorithm which is based on several antenna theories. With an optimum node density and DRT base, JDA is made for frequent surveillance systems with real-time applications. The results validate our research, which emphasizes that the network throughput of DRT is doubled when utilizing optimum node angles as opposed to certain other node degrees. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that introducing JDA into DRT with ideal network density increases the network's latency thus eliminating the proportion between the unstable period and the lifetime of the network in halves. Additionally, it displays a 25% improvement in network lifespan and the lowest rate of node loss when compared to the existing system ensuring that halves of nodes are still alive just a few rounds even before the lifetime of the network expires. 2022 The Authors -
Effective ML Techniques to Predict Customer Churn
Customer churn is one of the most challenging problems that affects revenue and growth strategy of a company. According to a recent Gartner Tech Marketing survey, 91% of C-level respondents rate customer churn as one of their top concerns. However, only 43% have invested in additional resources to support customer expansion. Hence, retaining existing customers is of paramount importance to a company's growth. Many authors in the past have presented different versions of models to predict customer churn using machine learning techniques. The aim of this paper is to study some of the most important machine learning techniques used by researchers in the recent years. The paper also summarizes the prediction techniques, datasets used and performance achieved in these studies for a deeper understanding of the domain. The analysis shows that although hybrid and ensemble methods have been widely successful in improving model performance, there is a need for well-defined guidelines on appropriate model evaluation measures. While most approaches used are quantitative in nature, there is lack of research that focuses on information-rich content in customer company interaction instances, like emails, phone calls or customer support chat records. The information presented in the paper will not only help to increase awareness in industry about emerging trends in machine learning algorithms used in churn prediction, but also help new or existing researchers position their research activity appropriately. 2021 IEEE. -

Effective Groundnut Crop Management by Early Prediction of Leaf Diseases through Convolutional Neural Networks
Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.), is the sixth-most significant leguminous oilseed crop grown all over worldwide. Groundnut, due to its high content of various dietary fibers, is classified as a valuable cash, staple and a feed crop for millions of households around the world. However, due to varied environmental factors, the crop is quite prone to many kinds of diseases, identifiable through its leaves, for which Groundnut producers have to suffer major losses every year. An early detection of such diseases is essential in order to save this significant crop and avoid huge losses. This paper presents a novel Machine Learning based Deep Convolution Neural Network (CNN) model CNN8GN. The model uses transfer learning technique for detection of such diseases in Groundnuts at an early stage of crop production. A Groundnut real image data set containing a total of 5322 real images for six different classes of Groundnut leaf diseases, captured in the fields of Gujarat state (India) during September 2022 to February 2023, is generated for training, testing and evaluation of the proposed model. The proposed deep learning model architecture is designed on eight different layers and can be used on varied sized images using simple ReLu and Softmax activation functions. The performance of the proposed CNN8GN model on Groundnut real image dataset is examined using a detailed experimental analysis with other six pre-trained models: VGG16, InceptionV3, Resnet50, ResNet152V2, VGG19, and MobileNetV2. CNN8GN results are also examined in detail using different sets of input parameters values. The proposed model has shown significant improvements for disease detection in comparative analysis with 99.11% training and 91.25% testing accuracy. The Author(s) 2024. -
Effective fraud detection in healthcare domain using popular classification modeling techniques
Fraud is any activity with malicious intentions resulting in personal gain. In the Present Day scenario, every sector is polluted by such fraudulent activities to fetch unauthorized benefits. In HealthCare, an increase in fraudulent insurance claims has been observed over the years which may constitute around 3-5% of the total cost. Increasing healthcare costs along with the hike in fraud cases have made it difficult for people to approach these services when required. To avoid such situations, we must understand and identify such illegal acts and prepare our systems to combat such cases. Thus, there is a need to have a powerful mechanism to detect and avoid fraudulent activities. Many Data mining approaches are applied to identify, analyze and categorized fraud claims from the genuine ones. In this paper, various frauds existing in the Health Care sector have been discussed along with analyzing the effect of frauds in the health care domain with existing data mining models. Furthermost, a comparative analysis is performed on two existing approaches to extract relevant patterns related to fraudulent claims. BEIESP. -

Effective atomic number and electron density of some biologically important lipids for electron, proton, alpha particle and photon interactions
X-ray, ?-ray and charged particle interaction parameters of biomolecules are useful in medical diagnosis and radiation therapy as exposure to radiations can cause energy of photons and charged particles to be deposited in body through various interaction processes. With this in view, the effective atomic number (Zeff) and electron density (Neff) of some biologically important lipids for X-ray, ?-ray and charged particle interactions were studied in the energy range 10 keV500 MeV using logarithmic interpolation method. A non-monotonic variation in Zeff values was observed for protons and alpha particles in low and intermediate energy regions respectively whereas a sudden increase in Zeff was observed for electron interaction in higher energy region. Zeff values were maximum in higher energy region for total electron interactions whereas maximum values of Zeff for total alpha particle interactions were at relatively lower energies. Highest Zeff values were found at lower energy region of photoelectric absorption dominance for photon interactions. Variation in Neff seems to be similar to variation in Zeff as they are inter-related. 2020 Elsevier Ltd -

Effective and Efficient Video Compression by the Deep Learning Techniques
Deep learning has reached many successes in Video Processing. Video has become a growing important part of our daily digital interactions. The advancement of better resolution content and the large volume offers serious challenges to the goal of receiving, distributing, compressing and revealing highquality video content. In this paper we propose a novel Effective and Efficient video compression by the Deep Learning framework based on the flask, which creatively combines the Deep Learning Techniques on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN). The video compression method involves the layers are divided into different groups for data processing, using CNN to remove the duplicate frames, repeating the single image instead of the duplicate images by recognizing and detecting minute changes using GAN and recorded with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Instead of the complete image, the small changes generated using GAN are substituted, which helps with frame-level compression. Pixel wise comparison is performed using K-nearest Neighbours (KNN) over the frame, clustered with K-means and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) is applied for every frame in the video for all three colour channels [Red, Green, Blue] to decrease the dimension of the utility matrix [R, G, B] by extracting its latent factors. Video frames are packed with parameters with the aid of a codec and converted to video format and the results are compared with the original video. Repeated experiments on several videos with different sizes, duration, Frames per second (FPS), and quality results demonstrated a significant resampling rate. On normal, the outcome delivered had around a 10% deviation in quality and over half in size when contrasted, and the original video. 2023 CRL Publishing. All rights reserved. -
Effect of Work Experience on Psychological Capital and Job Satisfaction among Employees
In todays fast-paced workplaces, where technology is evolving at a dizzying rate, professionals face a myriad of problems. Their inability to strike a healthy work-life balance may lead to feelings of dissatisfaction with their job. Consequently, in order to achieve flexible, long-term growth and job happiness, businesses should support their employees good psychological development. Primary data was acquired from employees in the automotive manufacturing company, totalling 95 individuals, using standardized questionnaires that had a good level of reliability and validity. The results indicated that there is no significant effect of work experience on the psychological capital of employees (F = 1.21; p < 0.30) and their job satisfaction (F = 0.35; p < 0.70). The major findings indicate that regardless of an employees level of experience, there is no substantial variation in the psychological capital and job satisfaction of the employees. This variation may also arise because of other specific factors. 2024 selection and editorial matter, Dr. Sundeep Katevarapu, Dr. Anand Pratap Singh, Dr. Priyanka Tiwari, Ms. Akriti Varshney, Ms. Priya Lanka, Ms. Aankur Pradhan, Dr. Neeraj Panwar, Dr. Kumud Sapru Wangnue; individual chapters, the contributors. -

Effect of viscous dissipation and joule heating on three-dimensional mixed convection flow of nano fluid over a non-linear stretching sheet in presence of solar radiation
The present exploration deals the study of viscous dissipation and Joule heating effects on three-dimensional flow and heat transfer of nanofluid over a nonlinear stretching sheet. The fluid is assumed to be electrically conducting and the flow is persuaded by a stretching of an elastic sheet in two lateral directions. The governing partial differential equations are reduced to a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying the suitable similarity transformations. The so obtained similarity equations are solved by employing the fourth-fifth order Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method. The impact of various pertinent parameters on the velocities, temperature, skin friction coefficients and Nusselt number are computed and illustrations are provided by the inclusion of figures and tables. The present results have an excellent agreement with previously published results in a limiting sense. It is found that the heat transfer rate increases when radiation parameter is increased and the effect of nanoparticle volume fraction and thermal radiation stabilizes the thermal boundary layer growth. 2017 by American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved. -
Effect of Various Double-Frequency Modulations on Rayleigh-Benard Convection
Rayleigh-Bard convection in Newtonian fluid under different types of modulations are studied in this thesis by replacing the single frequency modulations with two frequency modulations with different amplitude and frequency. Linear and non-linear analysis of Rayleigh-Benard convection is considered under two-frequency gravity, rotation, temperature, magnetic field and internal heat generation modulation. The sixteen combinations of sinusoidal (trigonometric sine) and non-sinusoidal (square, triangular, sawtooth) wave forms of different modulations are considered to study the impact of modulations on the onset of convection and heat transport. The expressions for unmodulated Rayleigh number and correction Rayleigh number in the linear case are obtained from linearized Lorentz model using Venezian approach. To study the impact of different types of modulations and wave forms on the heat transport, the expression for the Nusselt number is obtained by solving the non-linear Lorentz model numerically. From the study it is found that the two-frequency modulations make the system more stable compare to no-modulation and single-frequency modulations. The mixing angle of the two frequency plays major role in deciding the stability of the system. The results pertaining to no-modulation and single frequency are obtained as the limiting cases. Onset of Rayleigh-Bard Convection and Heat Transfer under Two-frequency newlineRotation Modulation The study investigates the effect of sixteen sinusoidal (sine) and non-sinusoidal combinations (square, triangular, sawtooth) of time-periodic Coriolis force (rotation modulation) on Rayleigh-Bard convection (RBC) in a Newtonian liquid. The consideration captures the potential effects of two-frequency rotation modulation on stability, newlinespecifically the onset of convection and the amount of heat transfer in the system simultaneously. -

Effect of variable viscosity on marangoni convective boundary layer flow of nanofluid in the presence of mixed convection
The effect of variable viscosity on Marangoni convection in immediate vicinity of the plate is discussed. The mathematical model of the problem is highly nonlinear partial differential equations transforms into two nonlinear ordinary differential equations by applying suitable similarity transformations. The reduced similarity equivalences are then solved numerically by RungeKutta Fehlberg-45 order method. The consequences of pertinent parameters like variable viscosity parameter, convection parameter and volume fraction are analyzed on various flow fields. The results acquired are on par with erstwhile published results. The results of the present study shows that for greater values of angular momentum the buoyancy effects dominate, augmentation in mixed convection carries away the free convection currents from the plate, increase in volume fraction of solid enhances the thermal conductivity of the fluid and it is important to note that Marangoni effect is constructive for cooling processes. 2019 by American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved. -
Effect of vacancies on thermopower of molybdenum disulfide monolayers
A detailed theoretical investigation of the effect of scattering of electrons and phonons by lattice vacancies in molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) monolayers (MLs) on diffusion, S d, and phonon-drag, S g, components of thermoelectric power (TEP), S, is presented over a wide-temperature range (1 < T < 300 K) using the Boltzmann transport formalism. The diffusion component is assumed to be influenced, not only by vacancies via short-range and Coulomb disorder scattering, but also by charged impurities (CIs) and acoustic and optical phonons. In the case of S g, the phonons are considered to be scattered, besides the vacancies, by sample boundaries, substitutional isotopic impurities, as well as other phonons via both N- and U-processes. Numerical calculations of S d and S g, as functions of temperature and vacancy defect density are presented for MoS2 MLs with n s = 1017 m-2 supported on SiO2/Si substrates. The role of carrier scatterings by mono-sulfur and mono-molybdenum vacancies in influencing the overall electron and phonon relaxation rates and in determining S d and S g are investigated. The behavior of S d and S g is found to be noticeably influenced by vacancy scattering. The influence on S d is seen to be more for mono-sulfur vacancies for densities lesser than 1%. The influence, is to enhance S d slightly for MLs with realizable CI concentrations. On the other hand, S g is found to depend sensitively on the vacancy disorder for T < 50 K; a S-vacancy density of 0.1% is found to suppress the characteristic peak of S g by almost 60%. The extent of reduction in the characteristic peak of S g, observable in low temperature measurements of S, can provide information about defect density. The calculations demonstrate that defect engineering of MoS2 ML systems can be used to tune their thermoelectric performance. A need for detailed experimental studies is suggested. 2018 IOP Publishing Ltd.
