    Get PDF
    Superharmonic imaging (SHI) benefits medical ultrasound imaging in achieving higher spatial and contrast resolution but gives poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and penetration depth that require careful control on excitation power and frequency. In the present work, coded pulsed excitations (linear frequency modulated and nonlinear frequency modulated signals) are used to evaluate the superharmonic field generation and propagation (coded tissue superharmonic imaging). The evaluation includes the study of parameters such as peak side lobe level, beam width, axial level for analyzing SNR and penetration depth. The results for coded tissue SHI are reported in comparison with conventional SHI and with the performance of coded tissue harmonic imaging and fundamental ultrasound imaging

    In modern era Rajayakshma can be correlated to Tuberculosis. Rajayakshma is a Madhyama Rogamarga Vyadhi manifested Shosha. Though there is a difference in the pathogenesis of Rajayakshma and Pulmonary Tuberculosis, the clinical picture of both is quite similar. It is a major public health problem in India due to the environmental changes, changes in behavioural, diet habits, poor quality of life, population explosion, under nutrition and lack of awareness about cause of disease and modern life style. Ayurveda can provide the satisfactory health service due to its comprehensive capacity of attaining all types of Pathological changes. To fulfil the applied aspect of these basic principles the symptoms of Rajayakshma have been under taken for study. Here we done a study on a patient of Rajayakshma to rule out the Kasaghna effect of Akshawaleha in the management

    Opinion mining is a relatively new field that refers to the practice of collecting feedback in the form of online reviews and ratings left by users on various topics. Researchers are now able to monitor the states of consciousness of individuals in real-time because to this development. Just lately, a number of research papers for sentiment analysis were implemented, each of which was based on a unique categorization and ranking procedure. However, the amount of time necessary for the newline performing class has not decreased in any way. Sentiment Sensitivity newline word list SST was provided as a solution to the problem of function mismatch in the go-domain sentiment class across the source area and the target domain; however, achieving improved accuracy and identifying distributional similarities of words became less effective as time went on. Hidden Markov’s persistent development may be seen at the beginning. Cosine In order to achieve more effective and clean pre-processing, a method that is conceptually quite similar to HM-CPCS has been devised. The HM-CPCS methodology, which has recently been suggested, makes use of the POS tagger, a variant of which is based on the Hidden Markov algorithm. Evaluations are created using data from a wide variety of different domains. Similar to a newline, the tags that come before and after it compute the possibility of transitions and the existence of the term newline among the tags in order to increase capability. This is done in order to improve capability

    User reviews on social media have sparked a surge in interest in the application of sentiment analysis to provide feedback to the government, public and commercial sectors. Sentiment analysis, spam identification, sarcasm detection and news classification are just few of the uses of text mining. For many firms, classifying reviews based on user feelings is a significant and collaborative effort. In recent years, machine learning models and handcrafted features have been used to study text classification, however they have failed to produce encouraging results for short text categorization. Deep neural network based Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Fuzzy logic model with incremental learning is suggested in this paper. On the basis of F1-score, accuracy, precision and recall, suggested model was tested on a large dataset of hotel reviews. This study is a categorization analysis of hotel review feelings provided by hotel customers. When word embedding is paired with LSTM, findings show that the suggested model outperforms current best-practice methods, with an accuracy 81.04%, precision 77.81%, recall 80.63% and F1-score 75.44%. The efficiency of the proposed model on any sort of review categorization job is demonstrated by these encouraging findings

    Nowadays the digital image plays an important role in human life. Due to large growth in the image processing techniques, with the availability of image modification tools any modification in the images can be done. These modifications cannot be recognized by human eyes. So Identification of the image integrity is very important in today’s life. Contrast and brightness of digital images can be adjusted by contrast enhancement. Move and paste type of images are Created by malicious person, in which contrast of one source image is enhanced to match the other source image. Here in this topic contrast enhancement technique is used which aimed at detecting image tampering has grown in different applications area such as law enforcement, surveillance. Also with the contrast enhancement, we propose an improved 3D lighting environment estimation method based on a more general surface reflection model. 3D lighting environment is an important clue in an image that can be used for image forgery detection. We intend to employ fully automatic face morphing and alignment algorithms. Also we intend to use face detection method to detect the face existence and 3D lighting environment estimation to check originality of human faces in the image
