IMPACT OF INTERNET IN ACADEMIC EFFICIENCY OF STUDENTS AMONG ENGINEERING GRADUATES
In the modern digital world, Internet service play a crucial role in enriching new trends among young graduates. Internet have empowered new technology to young learners to progress their academic work. It is very essential to measure the impact of internet service among engineering graduates which paved the way for higher studies and employment. Digital era may oblige to learn everything in their routine life with new techniques. In this study, questionnaire is structured and issued to 180 engineering graduates around 3 colleges in Tirunelveli district. Out of 180, 164 responded and get collected. After analyzing , we came to know that 44.43 % of the respondent have strongly agree the positive impact in their academic way. In turn, 41.29% of the respondent have strongly agree the negative impact in their academic way

Mapping of Cyprinus carpio research: a global perspectives
Considering the importance of fish culture to meet out the needs of livelihood and nutrition, this study has been carried out to identify the highly productivity institutions, author, country, countries international collaboration and citation impact on Cyprinus carpio research. This study revealed that USA was the predominant country contributed more number of publications with low relative collaboration. Svobodova, Z from Czech Republic contributed more number of publications, whereas none from USA came under top 20 authors. Though Chinese Academy of Science, China was ranked 1st in total publication, the relative collaboration 14th position only. The Netherlands and Agricultural University of Wageningen had the highest relative citation impact. Aquaculture from Elsevier was ranked 1st among the journals

Evolutionary algorithm-based classifier parameter tuning for automatic ovarian cancer tissue characterization and classification
Purpose: Ovarian cancer is one of the most common gynecological cancers in women. It is difficult to accurately and objectively diagnose benign and malignant ovarian tumors using ultrasound and other tests. Hence, there is an imperative need to develop a computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) system for ovarian tumor classification in order to reduce patient anxiety and the cost of unnecessary biopsies. In this paper, we present an automatic CAD system for the detection of benign and malignant ovarian tumors using advanced image processing and data mining techniques. Materials and Methods: In the proposed system, Hu's invariant moments, Gabor transform parameters and entropies are first extracted from the acquired ultrasound images. Significant features are then used to train a probabilistic neural network (PNN) classifier for classifying the images into benign and malignant categories. The model parameter (σ) for which the PNN classifier performs the best is identified using a genetic algorithm (GA). Results: The proposed system was validated using 1300 benign images and 1300 malignant images, obtained from 10 patients with a benign disease and 10 with a malignant disease. We used 23 statistically significant (p < 0.0001) features. By evaluating the classifier using a ten-fold cross-validation technique, we were able to achieve an average classification accuracy of 99.8 %, sensitivity of 99.2 % and specificity of 99.6 % with a σ of 0.264. Conclusion: The proposed system is automated and hence is more objective, can be easily deployed in any computer, is fast and accurate and can act as an adjunct tool in helping physicians make a confident call about the nature of the ovarian tumor under evaluatio
Atherosclerotic risk stratification strategy for carotid arteries using texture-based features
Plaques in the carotid artery result in stenosis, which is one of the main causes for stroke. Patients have to be carefully selected for stenosis treatments as they carry some risk. Since patients with symptomatic plaques have greater risk for strokes, an objective classification technique that classifies the plaques into symptomatic and asymptomatic classes is needed.We present a computer aided diagnostic (CAD) based ultrasound characterization methodology (a class of Atheromatic systems) that classifies the patient into symptomatic and asymptomatic classes using two kinds of datasets: (1) plaque regions in ultrasound carotids segmented semi-automatically and (2) far wall gray-scale intima-media thickness (IMT) regions along the common carotid artery segmented automatically. For both kinds of datasets, the protocol consists of estimating texture-based features in frameworks of local binary patterns (LBP) and Law's texture energy (LTE) and applying these features for obtaining the training parameters, which are then used for classification. Our database consists of 150 asymptomatic and 196 symptomatic plaque regions and 342 IMT wall regions. When using the Atheromatic-based system on semiautomatically determined plaque regions, support vector machine (SVM) classifier was adapted with highest accuracy of 83%. The accuracy registered was 89.5% on the far wall gray-scale IMTregions when using SVM, K-nearest neighbor (KNN) or radial basis probabilistic neural network (RBPNN) classifiers. LBP/LTE-based techniques on both kinds of carotid datasets are noninvasive, fast, objective and cost-effective for plaque characterization and, hence, will add more value to the existing carotid plaque diagnostics protocol.We have also proposed an index for each type of datasets: AtheromaticPi, for carotid plaque region, and AtheromaticWi, for IMT carotid wall region, based on the combination of the respective significant features. These indices show a separation between symptomatic and asymptomatic by 4.53 units and 4.42 units, respectively, thereby supporting the texture hypothesis classificatio
