    A BIO GENETIC PROCESS TO REPLICAS-FREE REPOSITORY

    Several systems that rely on consistent data to offer high-quality services, such as digital libraries and ecommerce brokers, may be affected by the existence of duplicates, quasi replicas, or near-duplicate entries in their repositories. Because of that, there have been significant investments from private and government organizations for developing methods for removing replicas from its data repositories. This is due to the fact that clean and replica-free repositories not only allow the retrieval of higher quality information but also lead to more concise data and to potential savings in computational time and resources to process this data. In this paper, we propose a genetic programming approach to record deduplication that combines several different pieces of evidence extracted from the data content to find a deduplication function that is able to identify whether two entries in a repository are replicas or not. As shown by our experiments, our approach outperforms an existing state-of-the-art method found in the literature. Moreover, the suggested functions are computationally less demanding since they use fewer evidence. In addition, our genetic programming approach is capable of automatically adapting these functions to a given fixed replica identification boundary, freeing the user from the burden of having to choose and tune this parameter

    Now a day’s Electronics plays a vital role in our daily life. It is a key in making this world a small and making everything happen at our finger tips, today’s most used and flexible is USB flash drives, which is used to store the data and data transfer between them related with computer, and we are not able to share files between two USB flash drives when user is away from computer. So to overcome this problem we are designing a complete blend of hardware and software With the help of this project we can not only transfer the data but also we can see the transfer of the particular file which we want to send by using LCD display. In our proposal we are transferring the data between two USB flash drives using two ways. One is Wireless Technology either Wi-Fi technology which we can send/receive File or Bluetooth Technology which we can send/receive data to USB flash drive with Bluetooth enabled devices like Mobiles, laptops etc.. Another is in-built USB slots to perform data transmission to other pen drives directly without the use of the computer system. The implementation of an operating system and a processor to the USB Flash drive are the main challenges in this proposed system.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v4i5.657

    Fund Raiser is a website where users can start a campaign seeking public and private funding for a person, a project, or a cause. Users can use tools of this website to publish the campaign web pages and to market the fund-raising event. In addition, the website allows anyone (who is willing) to donate to any fundraising event. There are different ways to seek funds for different activities today. Fund Raiser is a Java-based web application to get funds for events, floods, opening new offices, constructing school buildings, etc. There are different websites available in the market to perform this operation. Our Fund Raiser website can accept donations from other countries. A centralized database is maintained to store all the operations. A separate user interface is developed for the admin, donor, and user. Every actor must register with the system. After successful login, only they can perform various operations

    Influence of in-office oral hygiene instructions on the parental assessment of their child\u27s oral health.

    Purpose: To identify the relation between oral health education and parental assessment of their child’s dental condition. Methods: Our study population included 33,342 children, from Smile KY! annual screenings from 2002 to 20014. Data collection was through questionnaire forms. Our primary risk factor was “dental health instructions received” (yes/no) and our outcome of interest was “parental assessment of your child’s dental health” (good/fair/poor). We had 13 years of data from 2002 to 2014 and used ‘SAS’ statistical software for data manipulation and recoding. Descriptive statistics, chi-square test of independence, trend analysis and multiple logistic regression modeling were performed on ‘SPSS’ and ‘SAS’ statistical software at P

    Color, texture and rehydration characteristics of ohmically treated sweet potatoes

    Ohmic heating has been shown to affect the drying rate and texture of foods. This research was designed to determine the effect of ohmic heating on rehydration, color and texture properties of sweet potatoes. Three combinations: 60Hz, 40V, 60Hz, 60V and 1Hz, 40V were applied to ohmically heat sweet potato cubes. The ohmic treated cubes and untreated cubes or controls were stored for six days in four different %relative humidities of 11.15%, 32.73%, 57.70% and 75.32%. Results showed that there was no significant difference in the rehydration properties of ohmic treated samples and control samples. The % moisture gain varied between a minimum of 0.1% and a maximum of 40.7% in the case of ohmically treated samples and 0.71% to 32.41% for control samples. The color lightness values increased with increase in storage time for both ohmically treated and control samples. The 60Hz, 40V ohmically treated samples had less increase compared to control samples. The degree of redness (a*) and degree of yellowness (b*) values were significantly higher for ohmically treated samples during storage. A significant loss of color pigments into rehydrating water was observed during rehydration for ohmically treated samples. The 60Hz, 40V treated samples retained color and appearance compared to other treatments. Texture analysis showed that the ohmic treated samples (60H, 60V) had higher hardness, springiness and chewiness values than the control samples. At lower humidities the firmness or hardness values increased with increase in storage time. Positive correlations were obtained between the moisture content of the samples after rehydration and the hardness and chewiness values. This study demonstrated that ohmic heating played a pivotal role in retaining rehydration properties, color attributes and some of the texture attributes of the sweet potato samples when appropriate combinations of frequency and electrical field strength were used
