    The Research paper focuses on impact and importance of cashless policy in India. According to Government of India the cashless policy will increase employment, reduce cash related robbery thereby reducing risk of carrying cash. Cashless policy will also reduce cash related corruption and attract more foreign investors to the country. In many countries introduction of cashless economy can be seen as steps in the right direction. It is expected that its impact will be felt in modernization of payment system, Reduction in the cost of banking service, Reduction in high security and safety risk and also curb banking related corruption. Electronic banking will be made banking transaction to be easier by bringing services closer to its customers hence improving banking industry performance. The financial safety over the digital payment channel is important for pushing the cashless economy idea. A major obstacle for the quick adoption of alternate mode of payment is mobile internet penetration, which is crucial because point of sale terminal works over mobile internet connection, while banks have been charging money on card based transaction which is seen in hurdle. India has been using electronic payment system for many year now, However the retail sector still has predominance of cash transaction and payment through cash is yet to pick up card is the one of the most secure, convenient mode of cashless payment in retail market

    Analysis of the Efficacy of Real-Time Hand Gesture Detection with Hog and Haar-Like Features Using SVM Classification

    The field of hand gesture recognition has recently reached new heights thanks to its widespread use in domains like remote sensing, robotic control, and smart home appliances, among others. Despite this, identifying gestures is difficult because of the intransigent features of the human hand, which make the codes used to decode them illegible and impossible to compare. Differentiating regional patterns is the job of pattern recognition. Pattern recognition is at the heart of sign language. People who are deaf or mute may understand the spoken language of the rest of the world by learning sign language. Any part of the body may be used to create signs in sign language. The suggested system employs a gesture recognition system trained on Indian sign language. The methods of preprocessing, hand segmentation, feature extraction, gesture identification, and classification of hand gestures are discussed in this work as they pertain to hand gesture sign language. A hybrid approach is used to extract the features, which combines the usage of Haar-like features with the application of Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG).The SVM classifier is then fed the characteristics it has extracted from the pictures in order to make an accurate classification. A false rejection error rate of 8% is achieved while the accuracy of hand gesture detection is improved by 93.5%

    ABSTRACT: In our day to day, the usage of internet and searching the information should be increases rapidly. Because of this, now a days we have facing the problems like whether the retrieving information would be noise free or not and having many confusions with the usage of keywords to get the exact result. To avoid this problem we are going to propose the concepts called Co-Occurrence and recommendation. These two concepts increases the effectiveness and of the result. By using the recommendation concept we have multiple choices to select the desired thing. The web search increases dramatically [1] user search performance leads to large number of confusions. We examine a general expert search problem: searching experts on the web, where millions of web pages and thousands of names are considered. The two main issues are: Web pages might be of untrustworthy and have more noise; the knowledge evidences spotted in web pages are frequently unclear and ambiguous. The skilled search has been studied in different contexts, e.g., enterprises, academic communities. We propose to influence the huge quantity of co-occurrence information to calculate the significance and status of a person name for a query which is given. So this makes the recommendation system the most important and the trust worthiness of the system will be analyzed in the better way. The personalization will be depended based on the individual user process in the web search mainly worked in E-Commerce application

    In today’s world, a large number of videos are uploaded in everyday, which contains information about something. The major challenge is to find the right video and understand the correct content, because there are lot of videos available some videos will contain useless content and even though the perfect content available that content should be required to us. If we not found right one it wastes your full effort and full time to extract the correct usefull information. We propose an innovation idea which uses NLP processing for text extraction and BERT Summarization for Text Summarization. This provides a video main content in text description and abstractive summary, enabling users to discriminate between relevant and irrelevant information according to their needs. Furthermore, our experiments show that the joint model can attain good results with informative, concise, and readable multi-line video description and summary in a human evaluation

    IOT innovation is used in the development of the Smart Farming Tracking the System. An Arduino Uno, a temperature humidity sensor, soil moisture sensor, water level sensor, water pumps, and DC motors strength this system. If the smart farming tracking system turns on, the sensors find the field’s water level and the soil’s moisture level. If the irrigation water stage falls below the level defined for a specific crop grown in the growing area, the irrigation system is going to start to pump water. The IOT warns concerning current level of water, soil moisture stage, and motor beginning will be shown on the LCD panel of the section. We are able to use the pumps by hand via a webpage. The farmers are additionally getting this data via mobile phone. By hitting a system- provided link, the individual using it may firmly prevent the water’s flow within the field. While carried out, the system will assist landowners to preserve suitable soil water and moisture levels, thus boosting yields with little work. The goal of this article is to identify grow illnesses and reduce losses in money. For picture appeal, we suggested an entirely based on deep learning method. We put the three most common Neural Network Designs to the test: Faster Region-based entirely judgment (SVM)Support Vector Machine Region-based entirely (RF) Random Forest method. The method suggested in the research can correctly detect many types of disease and is capable of dealing in complicated situations. In addition, the method may be expanded to recommend fertilizer according to extent evaluation as well as measurement. artificial intelligence (AI) entirely Machine Learning Response to this the combination the issue is a supervised categorization judgment

    Hamacher Maclaurin symmetric mean aggregation operators and WASPAS method for multiple criteria group decision making under T - spherical fuzzy environment

    No full text
    T-spherical fuzzy sets can accurately represent fuzzy information and effectively simulate real-world decision making scenarios by adjusting the parameter t. The Maclaurin symmetric mean can combine multiple arguments by considering the relationships between them in any decision making process. The main goal of this paper is to develop Maclaurin symmetric mean aggregation operators based on the Hamacher operations of T-spherical fuzzy sets. The developed operators are thoroughly examined through their fundamental properties. The defined operators are adopted to develop a decision making methodology called WASPAS (Weighted Aggregated Sum Product ASsessment) for solving multiple criteria group decision making problems in a T-spherical fuzzy environment. A real-life example of project assessment is illustrated to demonstrate the practicality of the proposed decision making approach. Sensitivity analysis of the parameters is carried out to check their effect on the decision results. A comparison analysis with existing methods confirms the accessibility of the developed approach

    Personal health record (PHR) is an emerging patient-centric model of health information exchange, which stored at a third party, such as cloud providers. However, there have been wide privacy concerns as personal health information could be exposed to those third party servers and to unauthorized parties. Different from previous works in secure data outsourcing, focus on the multiple data owner scenario, and divide the users in the PHR system into multiple security domains that greatly reduces the key management complexity for owners and users. Proposed a novel patient-centric framework and a suite of mechanisms for data access control to PHRs stored in semi trusted servers. Extensive analytical and experimental results are presented which show the security, scalability, and efficiency
