INDIAN Bank Base Rate:An Overview
The paper deals about the issues arising out of implementing base rate for Indian banks. With effect from July 1st, 2010, all banks are supposed to lend at base rate or minimum level of interest rate to customers. The net impact of this for retail customer will not be much as cost of funds for banks are not going to change much and cost of funds determine base rate. Big corporates will be biggest losers as they had advantage of getting loans at sub-base rates. Biggest gainers will be small and medium firms who were getting raw deal earlier from banks. Banks may lose market share in short term but there is going to be greater transparency and trickling down of policies made by RBI across banks due to base-rate system. Game theory has been applied to explain the base rate transition scenario in the paper.Base Rate, Private Bank, BPLR, Game Theory, Net Income Margin(NIM)
An Identity Based Key Management Scheme in Wireless Sensor Networks
Pairwise key establishment is one of the fundamental security services in
sensor networks which enables sensor nodes in a sensor network to communicate
securely with each other using cryptographic techniques. It is not feasible to
apply traditional public key management techniques in resource-constrained
sensor nodes, and also because the sensor nodes are vulnerable to physical
capture. In this paper, we introduce a new scheme called the identity based key
pre-distribution using a pseudo random function (IBPRF), which has better
trade-off between communication overhead, network connectivity and resilience
against node capture compared to the other key pre-distribution schemes. Our
scheme can be easily adapted in mobile sensor networks. This scheme supports
the addition of new sensor nodes after the initial deployment and also works
for any deployment topology. In addition, we propose an improved version of our
scheme to support large sensor networks.Comment: 7 pages, Published in Proceedings of 4th Asian International Mobile

Quantum Speed Limit For Mixed States Using Experimentally Realizable Metric
The minimal time required for a system to evolve between two different states
is an important notion for developing ultra-speed quantum computer and
communication channel. Here, we introduce a new metric for non-degenerate
density operator evolving along unitary orbit and show that this is
experimentally realizable operation dependent metric on quantum state space.
Using this metric, we obtain the geometric uncertainty relation that leads to a
new quantum speed limit. Furthermore, we argue that this gives a tighter bound
for the evolution time compared to any other bound. We also obtain a Levitin
kind of bound for mixed states. We propose how to measure this new distance and
speed limit in quantum interferometry. Finally, the lower bound for the
evolution time of a quantum system is studied for any completely positive trace
preserving map using this metric.Comment: Latex, 8+\epsilon pages, 1 Fig accepted in PL
Non-Local Advantage of Quantum Coherence
A bipartite state is said to be steerable if and only if it does not have a
single system description, i.e., the bipartite state cannot be explained by a
local hidden state model. Several steering inequalities have been derived using
different local uncertainty relations to verify the ability to control the
state of one subsystem by the other party. Here, we derive complementarity
relations between coherences measured on mutually unbiased bases using various
coherence measures such as the -norm, relative entropy and skew
information. Using these relations, we derive conditions under which non-local
advantage of quantum coherence can be achieved and the state is steerable. We
show that not all steerable states can achieve such advantage.Comment: 8 pages, protocol modified, To appear in PRA-Rapid Communication
Pragmatic Evaluation of Health Monitoring & Analysis Models from an Empirical Perspective
Implementing and deploying several linked modules that can conduct real-time analysis and recommendation of patient datasets is necessary for designing health monitoring and analysis models. These databases include, but are not limited to, blood test results, computer tomography (CT) scans, MRI scans, PET scans, and other imaging tests. A combination of signal processing and image processing methods are used to process them. These methods include data collection, pre-processing, feature extraction and selection, classification, and context-specific post-processing. Researchers have put forward a variety of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques to carry out these tasks, which help with the high-accuracy categorization of these datasets. However, the internal operational features and the quantitative and qualitative performance indicators of each of these models differ. These models also demonstrate various functional subtleties, contextual benefits, application-specific constraints, and deployment-specific future research directions. It is difficult for researchers to pinpoint models that perform well for their application-specific use cases because of the vast range of performance. In order to reduce this uncertainty, this paper discusses a review of several Health Monitoring & Analysis Models in terms of their internal operational features & performance measurements. Readers will be able to recognise models that are appropriate for their application-specific use cases based on this discussion. When compared to other models, it was shown that Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Masked Region CNN (MRCNN), Recurrent NN (RNN), Q-Learning, and Reinforcement learning models had greater analytical performance. They are hence suitable for clinical use cases. These models' worse scaling performance is a result of their increased complexity and higher implementation costs. This paper compares evaluated models in terms of accuracy, computational latency, deployment complexity, scalability, and deployment cost metrics to analyse such scenarios. This comparison will help users choose the best models for their performance-specific use cases. In this article, a new Health Monitoring Metric (HMM), which integrates many performance indicators to identify the best-performing models under various real-time patient settings, is reviewed to make the process of model selection even easier for real-time scenarios
