    Due to the enhanced digital media on the web, information security and privacy protection issue have attracted the eye of information communication. Information hiding has become a subject of sizable im-portance. Currently each day there's very big drawback of information hacking into the networking space. There is variety of techniques offered within the trade to over-come this drawback. So, information hiding within the encrypted image is one in all the solutions, however the matter is that the original cover can't be losslessly recov-ered by this system. That’s why recently; additional and additional attention is paid to reversible information concealing in encrypted pictures however this technique drawback low hardiness. A completely unique technique is planned by reserving for embedding information be-fore encoding of the image takes place with the offered algorithmic rule. Currently the authentic person will hide the information simply on the image to produce authen-tication. The transmission and exchange of image addi-tionally desires a high security .This is the review paper regarding this reversible information hiding algorithms obtainable. As a result, because of histogram enlarge-ment and bar graph shifting embedded message and also the host image may be recovered dead. The embedding rate is enhanced and PSNR magnitude relation using novel technique

    C. equisetifolia is a multipurpose tree, widely used in the afforestation and wasteland development programmes. A successful in vitro plant regeneration protocol has been developed for this tree earlier. Further to this, various parameters necessary for the genetic modification using biolistic gene delivery system were standardized. The chimeric calli after 3 months of selection with appropriate antibiotic showed the transgene  integration in genomic PCR. The chimeric calli developed shoots when cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with phytohormones Benzyl Amino Purine (BAP) and Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) after it was pre-exposed to an induction medium, (MS with 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) and Kinetin (Kin) at concentrations of 2mg/l and 0.5mg/l respectively) for 30 days. Excised microshoots when treated with Indole Butyric Acid (IBA) followed by Abscisic Acid (ABA) developed roots in one month. Three months old plantlets were transferred to green house in pots containing soil and vermiculite (1:1)

    Political, economical, social, technological and SWOT analysis of beekeeping as a successful enterprise in India: An overview

    Get PDF
    Agriculture provides food for more than half of India's population. Entrepreneurial development among rural people is becoming more widely acknowledged as a strategy for overall rural community development. Rural people's entrepreneurial growth is increasingly being recognised as a strategy for achieving total rural community development. Beekeeping is an example of a successful agricultural business. By becoming entrepreneurs, beekeepers can increase their earnings and social capital. By boosting the income of rural beekeepers, reducing poverty, and protecting biological systems through pollination, entrepreneurial behavior contributes to sustainable development. The current review focuses on the several aspects of beekeeping as a profession on the core ideas of beekeeping entrepreneurship, its history, the distribution of honey-producing regions, and the wishes for its entrepreneurship development in India, as well as the important reasons for encouraging entrepreneurship. The current situation of beekeeping entrepreneurship in India, as well as the problems and opportunities it brings, were examined. This study examines the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) and Political, Economical, Social, and Technical (PEST) analyses of beekeeping as a business. As a result, the user is able to extensively research the market before beginning any new business. The focus of the review is on the business elements of beekeeping. In addition, the study highlights the beekeeping industry's future possibilities as well as the regulations sought by the Indian government.

    Materialism Versus Spirituality: Neo-Vedanta Approach of Synthesis

    Get PDF
    Dr Aditya Kumar Gupta, Department of Philosophy, ZHDC, Delhi University, IndiaIn this article I will try to expound and examine the debate of materialism and spiritualism in the context of two cultures: Western and Eastern respectively. It was Vivekananda, a neo or practical vedantin, who attached two isms with two cultures. Western society has excelled in the ‘art of matter’ and focused all their attention on it. The opposite is true of the eastern world. Ignoring the material aspect of life, they have spent their energy on learning the ‘art of soul’. These two societies have remained ignorant of other aspects of life. The result is a paralyzed growth of the human world. This is visible in the process of globalization as well. In the present world, we are following utter materialism in the name of globalization, which results in consumerism. Here, I wish to mention the solution prescribed by Vivekananda. In his view, the remedy lies in the synthesis of ‘spirit’ and ‘matter’. For both these cultures, oriental and occidental should come together and learn the missing part from each other. Westerners should learn from eastern people about spirituality, whereas the ‘art of matter’ should be learnt under the guidance of westerners. When ‘matter’ and ‘spirit’ go together, a new life will emerge on earth and only such world will be a real ‘global village’

    Spontaneous rupture of splenic artery aneurysm in pregnancy: an autopsy-based case report

    Get PDF
    Splenic artery aneurysm (SAA) is an infrequent form of vascular disease that has a significant potential for rupture, resulting in life-threatening intraperitoneal hemorrhage commonly during pregnancy. The incidence of splenic artery aneurysms has been estimated between 0.01% and 0.98%. We describe a case of sudden death of a 36 years old full term, primigravida female. During autopsy we found ruptured splenic artery aneurysm about 2.0 cm in diameter near hilum with intraperitoneal hemorrhage. It is important to be alert about the possibility of SAA in pregnant women for its early diagnosis, as the chance of it getting ruptured during pregnancy is high with high maternal and fetal mortality rates

    A review on pregabalin for the treatment of painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy

    Get PDF
    Pregabalin is an anti-epileptic drug which has been used for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Earlier, it was more prescribed as an adjuvant therapy for treating the partial seizures with or without secondary generalization in adults. It is an antagonist of voltage sensitive calcium ion channel on the presynaptic neuron. Pregabalin has a very good pharmacokinetic profile, possesses linear pharmacokinetics with low inter-variability of subjects. It does not show protein binding and does not interfere with the metabolism of other drugs because pregabalin undergoes very less metabolism. This factor has confirmedly shown that its benefits outweigh the risk. Different clinical trials and case reports have confirmed the fact that is reduces the pain involved in peripheral neuropathy. Though, more drugs have come like tricyclic antidepressant to manage the pain but due to their adverse effects, they are less used. This reappraisal is all about the pregabalin, its role, and where it stands among other drugs for management of pain aassociaed with diabetic peripheral neuropathy

    Modeling of calibration circuit for partial discharge measurement

    Get PDF
    Most of the high voltage equipment suffers from failure due to internal faults. The type of fault caused due to insulation failure as a consequence of local electrical stress concentration in the insulation, whether gas, solid or liquid is very widely prevalent. This is called as partial discharge. So, partial discharge detection is highly important for an early detection of insulation failure. In this study, the simulation of partial discharge has been carried out with consideration of a cylindrical void inside an epoxy resin. The PD characteristic is studied by applying different high voltages across the insulation, which is necessary for designing of a calibration circuit. A calibration circuit has been modeled in SIMULINK for generation of PD pulses of known charge magnitude. The calibrator was connected across the test object and the pulses were detected via detector. A physical model of calibrator was made and output calibrating pulses were observed at Digital Storage Oscilloscope

    EHI: End-to-end Learning of Hierarchical Index for Efficient Dense Retrieval

    Full text link
    Dense embedding-based retrieval is now the industry standard for semantic search and ranking problems, like obtaining relevant web documents for a given query. Such techniques use a two-stage process: (a) contrastive learning to train a dual encoder to embed both the query and documents and (b) approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS) for finding similar documents for a given query. These two stages are disjoint; the learned embeddings might be ill-suited for the ANNS method and vice-versa, leading to suboptimal performance. In this work, we propose End-to-end Hierarchical Indexing -- EHI -- that jointly learns both the embeddings and the ANNS structure to optimize retrieval performance. EHI uses a standard dual encoder model for embedding queries and documents while learning an inverted file index (IVF) style tree structure for efficient ANNS. To ensure stable and efficient learning of discrete tree-based ANNS structure, EHI introduces the notion of dense path embedding that captures the position of a query/document in the tree. We demonstrate the effectiveness of EHI on several benchmarks, including de-facto industry standard MS MARCO (Dev set and TREC DL19) datasets. For example, with the same compute budget, EHI outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) in by 0.6% (MRR@10) on MS MARCO dev set and by 4.2% (nDCG@10) on TREC DL19 benchmarks

    Get PDF
    This paper describes a system for high resolution video conferencing. A number of camcorders are used to capture the video, which are then mosaiced to generate a wide angle panoramic view. Furthermore this system is made “real-time” by detecting changes and updating them on the mosaic. This system can be deployed on a single machine or on a cluster for better performance. It is also scalable and shows a good real-time performance. The main application for this system is videoconferencing for distance learning but it can be used for any high resolution broadcasting.Singapore-MIT Alliance (SMA
