    This article looks at the relationship between the discrete and the continuous Redner-Ben-Avraham-Kahng (RBK) coagulation models. On the basis of a priori estimation, a weak stability principle and the weak compactness in L1L_1 for the continuous RBK model is shown. By employing a sequence of discrete models to approximate the continuous one, we show that how discrete model eventually converges to the the modified continuous one using the stability principle

    Accessibility is an important aspect in this IT era for updated information for every individual with a disability as well. They also have an equal right to access the contents available online. Thus, web developers should follow the universally accepted guidelines to develop the web pages reachable for everyone. Websites that are not complying with WCAG 2.0 guidelines are very difficult to access by the disabled users. This evaluation is an attempt to analyze the accessibility of the websites of the National Institutes under the DEPWD, Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment under the different priority level of WCAG2.0. Evaluation of the websites has been done by automatic web accessibility evaluation tool WAVE and AChecker

    Background: The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness and acceptability of using vaginal Misoprostol for management of spontaneous incomplete and missed miscarriage as an alternative to direct vaginal surgical evacuation in our setting and also to compare the efficacy and patient satisfaction of the medical method with surgical method in same.Methods: this is a prospective comparative study performed on randomly divided 200 patients in two groups. Each group of patients are case of missed or incomplete abortion in first trimester.(5-12 weeks). Group one received Misoprostol tablet 600 mcg single dose per vaginally, and second group underwent surgical vaginal evacuation directly under local anesthesia (para-cervical block . both groups were compared in terms of success, complications, pain and patient satisfaction.Results: 97% success rates were obtained in the medical treatment group. Surgical group had 95% success rates. 3 patients underwent repeat surgical evacuation in the medical group. Bleeding was more and prolonged in the patients managed by Misoprostol, 27% patients had moderate bleeding. Though bleeding was less in the surgical group but there was excruciating pain and weakness as the procedure being done under local anesthesia, 98% patients experienced pain in surgical group. Satisfaction rates in the misoprostol group were 100%.Conclusions: Misoprostol is effective in complete evacuation of uterus in incomplete and missed miscarriage. Patients are highly satisfied with the misoprostol treatment as they didn’t have to get hospitalized. The bleeding was more or less like menstrual bleeding which did not affect the daily chores of the women. It is as effective as surgical evacuation and patient satisfaction is much more than the surgical evacuation.

    Single Input Single Head CNN-GRU-LSTM Architecture for Recognition of Human Activities

    Due to its applications for the betterment of human life, human activity recognition has attracted more researchers in the recent past. Anticipation of intension behind the motion and behaviour recognition are intensive applications for research inside human activity recognition. Gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer sensors are heavily used to obtain the data in time series for every timestep. The selection of temporal features is required for the successful recognition of human motion primitives. Different data pre-processing and feature extraction techniques were used in most past approaches with the constraint of sufficient domain knowledge. These approaches are heavily dependent on the quality of handcrafted features and are also time-consuming and not generalized. In this paper, a single head deep neural network-based approach with the combination of a convolutional neural network, Gated recurrent unit, and Long Short Term memory is proposed. The raw data from wearable sensors are used with minimum pre-processing steps and without the involvement of any feature extraction method. 93.48 % and 98.51% accuracy are obtained on UCI-HAR and WISDM datasets. This single-head deep neural network-based model shows higher classification performance over other architectures under deep neural networks

    Two Level Disambiguation Model for Query Translation

    Selection of the most suitable translation among all translation candidates returned by bilingual dictionary has always been quiet challenging task for any cross language query translation. Researchers have frequently tried to use word co-occurrence statistics to determine the most probable translation for user query. Algorithms using such statistics have certain shortcomings, which are focused in this paper. We propose a novel method for ambiguity resolution, named ‘two level disambiguation model’. At first level disambiguation, the model properly weighs the importance of translation alternatives of query terms obtained from the dictionary. The importance factor measures the probability of a translation candidate of being selected as the final translation of a query term. This removes the problem of taking binary decision for translation candidates. At second level disambiguation, the model targets the user query as a single concept and deduces the translation of all query terms simultaneously, taking into account the weights of translation alternatives also. This is contrary to previous researches which select translation for each word in source language query independently. The experimental result with English-Hindi cross language information retrieval shows that the proposed two level disambiguation model achieved 79.53% and 83.50% of monolingual translation and 21.11% and 17.36% improvement compared to greedy disambiguation strategies in terms of MAP for short and long queries respectively

    Cervical ectopic pregnancy: a rare case report

    Cervical ectopic pregnancy is rare condition which occurs in less than 1% of all ectopic pregnancies. Early diagnosis is a key to successful management; delayed diagnosis can lead to significant morbidity and fertility loss of the mother. We present a case of woman who presented with vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal pain for 3 days following amenorrhea of 3 ½ months. Ultrasound examination done outside was suggestive of left tubal ectopic pregnancy whereas scan done at our hospital indicated either uterine rupture within intraperitoneal sac or a cervical ectopic pregnancy. She was taken up for laparotomy and hysterectomy since she was bleeding profusely, and it was lifesaving
