    We define SubArtex Space of an Artex space over a  Bi-monoid. We give some examples of SubArtex spaces. We  prove the necessary and sufficient condition for a subset of an Artex space over a bi-monoid to be a SubArtex space. We  prove another equivalent  Proposition for the necessary and sufficient condition for a subset of an Artex space to be a SubArtex space.  We prove a nonempty intersection of two SubArtex spaces of an Artex space over a bi-monoid is  a SubArtex space. Also we prove a nonempty intersection of a family of SubArtex spaces of an Artex space over a bi-monoid is  a SubArtex space.  Finally, we prove, in this chapter, by giving an example, that  the union of two SubArtex spaces need not be a SubArtex spac

    The flora of an area is considered a vital part of the environment, regulating the prosperity of the biosphere and people's health. It is highly suggested that the proper utilization of plant resources in each part of a country has been useful in conserving the availability and productivity of the flora. The present investigation aimed to evaluate the survey of the beneficial flowers available in Coimbatore District, Tamil Nadu, India, from December 2019 to February 2020. The survey studies were divided into four different zones in Coimbatore District: Perur, Ganapathy, Thudiyalur, and Periyanaickenpalayam, respectively. The survey resulted in the collection of 40 plant species belonging to 38 genera, dispersed over 25 families of flowering plants / angiosperms. The dominant families were Apocynaceae and Oleaceae when compared to other families. This study reveals that species such as Calotropis gigantean, Chrysanthemum morifolium, Couroupita guianensis, Nerium oleander, Nyctanthes arbortristis, Nelumbo nucifera, and Tabernaemontana divaricata were used as ritual flowers. The beneficial flowers showed a maximum for ornamental flowers (43 percent), followed by ritual flowers (35 percent), medicinal flowers (15 percent), and cooking flowers (7 percent), respectively. The highest blooming of the flowers (14.89 percent) occurred in March, and the lowest in November and December. Flowers were documented as having economic value, with the highest rate in Rosa sp., and Jasminum sp., which were used as ornamental, medicinal, and cosmetic preparations as valuable resources. Scientific key information on taxonomy and technical approaches to beneficial flowers was analyzed. Flowers play a vital role in human life from birth to death and are used in all auspicious events in India, especially in daily prayers in temples and Indian households

    Clinical profile of congenital diaphragmatic hernia and their short-term outcome in a tertiary care neonatal unit: A retrospective study

    Get PDF
    Background: Recent developments in the antenatal diagnosis, surgical techniques, and neonatal intensive care had widely increased survival rates in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) in the western world. In developing countries, however, high mortality in neonates with CDH still continues to be a challenge. Objective: The aim of this study is to study the clinical profile of neonates with CDH and to analyze the various factors affecting mortality. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, 148 babies with a diagnosis of diaphragmatic hernia admitted to a tertiary care neonatal unit in South India, from the year 2010 to 2015, were reviewed. Results: The total survival rate was 58.1%, and the operative survival rate was 85.1%. Prenatal diagnosis was made in only 7 cases, and of these, 5 (71.42%) survived. Higher mortality was associated with age at admission <24 h, low Apgar score, early onset of respiratory distress, right-sided CDH, presence of persistent pulmonary hypertension of newborn, and high FiO2 requirement at the time of admission, during stabilization and surgery (p<0.01). Significantly higher mortality was also observed among babies who required positive-pressure ventilation during transport, required inotropes during hospital course (p<0.01), and had low PaO2, high PCO2, and high oxygenation index (p<0.01). Conclusion: Babies admitted to hospital within 24 h of age and who manifested early had a poor outcome indicating severe disease. Antenatal diagnosis of this condition should improve to prevent delay in stabilization and poor outcome

    Design of an Intelligent Controller for Armature Controlled DC Motor using Fuzzy Logic Technique

    This paper presents a fuzzy control approach to the speed control of DC shunt motor using armature control. This paper presents concept of development of conventional controller and the design of a fuzzy logic controller applicable to DC Motor Speed Control System (MSCS) with high performance of the FL controller. Since armature voltage supply has a major influence in controlling speed, therefore one of the inputs to the proposed FL Controller will be actual armature voltage supply (Va) while another input will be error (e) in speed. The transfer function model of the DC shunt motor has been obtained via experimentation and calculations and simulated and then as per requirement and specification, the proposed fuzzy logic controller has been designed and simulated using Fuzzy Logic and Simulink Toolboxes of MATLAB 7. Results show robustness against changing loading conditions

    Bis(μ-phenyl­tellurido-κ2 Te:Te)bis­[tetra­carbonyl­rhenium(I)]

    The title compound, [Re2(C6H5Te)2(CO)8], crystallizes with two mol­ecules in the asymmetric unit, in which two Re atoms are coordinated in a slightly distorted octa­hedral environment and are bridged by two Te atoms, which show a distorted trigonal-pyramidal geometry. The torsion angles for the Te—Re—Te—Re sequence of atoms are 19.29 (18) and 16.54 (16)° in the two mol­ecules. Thus, the Re—Te four-membered rings in the two mol­ecules deviate significantly from planarity. Two intra­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions occur in one of the mol­ecules. Te—Te [4.0551 (10) Å] inter­actions between the two mol­ecules and weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O inter­actions stabilize the crystal packing

    An Efficient Ensemble Method Using K-Fold Cross Validation for the Early Detection of Benign and Malignant Breast Cancer

    In comparison to all other malignancies, breast cancer is the most common form of cancer, among women. Breast cancer prediction has been studied by several researchers and is considered a serious threat to women. Clinicians are finding it difficult to create a treatment approach that will help patients live longer, due to the lack of solid predictive models. Rates of this malignancy have been observed to rise, more with industrialization and urbanization, as well as with early detection facilities. It is still considerably more prevalent in very developed countries, but it is rapidly spreading to developing countries as well. The purpose of this work is to offer a report on the disease of breast cancer in which we used available technical breakthroughs to construct breast cancer survivability prediction models. The Machine Learning (ML) techniques, namely Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Decision Tree (DT) Classifier, Random Forests (RF), and Logistic Regression (LR) is used as base Learners and their performance has been compared with the ensemble method, eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost).  For performance comparison, we employed the k-fold cross-validation method to measure the unbiased estimate of these prediction models. The results indicated that XGBoost outperformed with an accuracy of 97.81% compared to other ML algorithms
