    The volatile growth in wireless networks over the last few years resembles the rapid growth of the Internet within the last decade. The current IPS presents a less security. Unfortunately, our work combined with the work of others show that each of these mechanisms are completely futile. As a result, organizations with deployed wireless networks are vulnerable to illegal use of, and access to, their internal communications

    Approach to Provide Single View of Employee Data to Readily Use for Data Analysis

    Our aim is to develop a web application which will provide access to updated information about employees in the organization that can be used for data analysis and interpretation. An organization follows a particular structure like functional structure, divisional structure, product or matrix structure for its proper conduct. There can be various functional groups. Employees may be switched from one department to another because of changes in business requirements. They can be promoted or demoted based on their performance. It is necessary to have a system or mechanism that will keep the employee database updated at regular intervals. Many organizations can use this system to provide data for wider analysis. Also the system should be such that it takes care of all the security issues or rules of that organization. The proposed application will allow us to get the new data or existing data as input. Once data is uploaded to database, it can be edited and updated in order to reflect any changes. The application allows updating data monthly, quarterly or yearly based on business requirements. We can browse through the whole data and perform data analysis. Modern tools have been used (like Excel, Grid view) to access the application smoothly. DOI: 10.17762/ijritcc2321-8169.150610

    Need of Boosted GMM in Speech Emotion Recognition System Implemented Using Gaussian Mixture Model

    Speech feeling recognition is a vital issue that affects the human machine interaction. Automatic recognition of human feeling in speech aims at recognizing the underlying spirit of a speaker from the speech signal. Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) and therefore the minimum error rate classifier (i.e., theorem optimum classifier) is widespread and effective tools for speech feeling recognition. Typically, GMMs are wont to model the class-conditional distributions of acoustic options and their parameters are calculable by the expectation maximization (EM) algorithmic rule supported a coaching information set. During this paper, we have a tendency to introduce a boosting algorithmic rule for faithfully and accurately estimating the class-conditional GMMs. The ensuing algorithmic rule is known as the Boosted-GMM algorithmic rule. Our speech feeling recognition experiments show that the feeling recognition rates are effectively and considerably boosted by the Boosted-GMM algorithmic rule as compared to the EM-GMM algorithmic rule. During this interaction, human beings have some feelings that they want to convey to their communication partner with whom they are communicating, and then their communication partner may be the human or machine. This work dependent on the emotion recognition of the human beings from their speech signal. Emotion recognition from the speaker’s speech is very difficult because of the following reasons: Because of the existence of the different sentences, speakers, speaking styles, speaking rates accosting variability was introduced. The same utterance may show different emotions. Therefore, it is very difficult to differentiate these portions of utterance. Another problem is that emotion expression is depending on the speaker and his or her culture and environment. As the culture and environment gets change the speaking style also gets change, which is another challenge in front of the speech emotion recognition system.Human beings normally used their essential potentials to make communication better between themselves as well as between human and machine. During this interaction, human beings have some feelings that they want to convey to their communication partner with whom they are communicating, and then their communication partner may be the human or machine. This dissertation work dependent on the emotion recognition of the human beings from their speech signal. In this chapter introduction of the speech emotion recognition based on the problem overview and need of the system is provided. Emotional speech recognition aims at automatically identifying the emotional or physical state of a human being from his or her voice. Although feeling detection from speech could be a comparatively new field of analysis, it is several potential applications. In human-computer or human-human interaction systems, feeling recognition systems might give users with improved services by being adaptative to their emotions. The body of labor on sleuthing feeling in speech is sort of restricted. Currently, researchers area unit still debating what options influence the popularity of feeling in speech. There is conjointly appreciable uncertainty on the simplest algorithmic program for classifying feeling, and those emotions to category along.

    Beached bachelors: an extensive study on the largest recorded sperm whale <i>Physeter macrocephalus</i> mortality event in the North Sea

    Between the 8th January and the 25th February 2016, the largest sperm whale Physeter macrocephalus mortality event ever recorded in the North Sea occurred with 30 sperm whales stranding in five countries within six weeks. All sperm whales were immature males. Groups were stratified by size, with the smaller animals stranding in the Netherlands, and the largest in England. The majority (n = 27) of the stranded animals were necropsied and/or sampled, allowing for an international and comprehensive investigation into this mortality event. The animals were in fair to good nutritional condition and, aside from the pathologies caused by stranding, did not exhibit significant evidence of disease or trauma. Infectious agents were found, including various parasite species, several bacterial and fungal pathogens and a novel alphaherpesvirus. In nine of the sperm whales a variety of marine litter was found. However, none of these findings were considered to have been the primary cause of the stranding event. Potential anthropogenic and environmental factors that may have caused the sperm whales to enter the North Sea were assessed. Once sperm whales enter the North Sea and head south, the water becomes progressively shallower (<40 m), making this region a global hotspot for sperm whale strandings. We conclude that the reasons for sperm whales to enter the southern North Sea are the result of complex interactions of extrinsic environmental factors. As such, these large mortality events seldom have a single ultimate cause and it is only through multidisciplinary, collaborative approaches that potentially multifactorial large-scale stranding events can be effectively investigated
