    This study airs into the changing investment habits of Haryana's working women. To do so, a sample size of 300 employed females has been chosen from the six top universities identified by NIRF ranking. T-test has been employed to study the investment trends of Haryana's working women. For this purpose, 3 public &private universities and 3 public & private banks with higher RBI earnings in 2020 were selected. The women working in different sectors of Haryana were given a standardized questionnaire. The study's findings supported that a paradigm shift in investment patterns has been found in all investment avenues. The findings of the study are ice breaking for financial advisors and consultants, as it shifts the investment pattern of working women. This change in preference requires them to update their strategies accordingly. Working women are increasingly becoming independent in financial decisions, creating an opportunity for financial services to tailor their marketing plans to increase investor engagement

    With the increasing user-base of Android devices & advents of technologies such as Internet Banking, delicate user data is prone to be misused by malware and spyware applications. As the app-developer community increases, the quality reassurance could not be justified for every application and a possibility of data leakage arises. In this research, with the aim to ensure the application authenticity, Deep Learning methods and Taint Analysis are deployed on the applications. The detection system named DroidMark looks for possible sinks and sources of data leakage in the application by modelling Android’s lifecycles and callbacks, which is done by Reverse Engineering the APK, further monitoring the suspected processes and collecting data in different states of the application. DroidMark is thus designed to extract features from the applications which are fed to a trained Bayesian Network for classification of Malicious and Regular applications. The results indicate a high accuracy of 96.87% and an error rate of 3.13% in detection of Malware in Android devices

    Rasashastra is a branch of Ayurveda, related with the formulations involving drugs of metal/mineral origin. The different perspectives secured under this department are their origin, varieties, physical and chemical characteristics, therapeutic properties and their uses. Parada has the capability of consuming all the metals and minerals by which it attains high therapeutic value over other medicines. Shodhana is the process, which not only removes the Doshas but also increases strength and potency of the drug. Depending upon the nature of the metal and the disease for which they are meant to be used, the specific process for purification vary from one metal to the another and the process is repeated for several times. While Jarana is the process in which Parada reverts back to its original state without being subjected to processes like Galena, Patina, etc. In Marana removes the harmful effects produce various diseases in our body. In which metals/minerals should be converted into suitable form using Marana process

    The object of this paper is to build up Just in Time Dynamic Learner Models to analyze learners' behaviors and to evaluate learners' performance in online education systems by using rich data collected from e-learning systems. The goal is to create metrics to measure learners' characteristics from usage data. To achieve this goal we need to use data mining methods, especially clustering algorithms, to second patterns from which metrics can be derived from usage data. In this paper, we propose a six layer models(raw data layer, fact data layer, data mining layer, measurement layer, metrics layer and pedagogical application layer) to create a just in time learner model which draws inferences from usage data. In this approach, we collect raw data from online systems, latter fact data from raw data, and then use clustering mining methods to create measurements and metrics

    Development of a Novel Handheld Device for Active Compensation of Physiological Tremor

    Get PDF
    In microsurgery, the human hand imposes certain limitations in accurately positioning the tip of a device such as scalpel. Any errors in the motion of the hand make microsurgical procedures difficult and involuntary motions such as hand tremors can make some procedures significantly difficult to perform. This is particularly true in the case of vitreoretinal microsurgery. The most familiar source of involuntary motion is physiological tremor. Real-time compensation of tremor is, therefore, necessary to assist surgeons to precisely position and manipulate the tool-tip to accurately perform a microsurgery. In this thesis, a novel handheld device (AID) is described for compensation of physiological tremor in the hand. MEMS-based accelerometers and gyroscopes have been used for sensing the motion of the hand in six degrees of freedom (DOF). An augmented state complementary Kalman filter is used to calculate 2 DOF orientation. An adaptive filtering algorithm, band-limited Multiple Fourier linear combiner (BMFLC), is used to calculate the tremor component in the hand in real-time. Ionic Polymer Metallic Composites (IPMCs) have been used as actuators for deflecting the tool-tip to compensate for the tremor

    Critical review of Shodhana and Marana of Swarnamakshika

    Get PDF
    In Rasashastra classical books different authors have given different opinions regarding classification of Swarnamakshika. Some considered it as Saklamyaghan (cures all diseases) and Prana of Parada. (Inevitable in various mercurial operations). Hence it was placed under Maharasavarga. Swarnamakshika is grouped under Updhatu of Swarna and is composed of Copper, Iron and Sulphur. Swarnamakshika is considered as potent Rasayana drug and is indicated in diseases like Pandu, Anidra, Apasmara etc. Many Shodhana and Marana procedures have been explained for Swarnamakshika in different classics. A standard Swarnamakshika is prepared conveniently by using Nimbuka Swarasa as Shodhana and Marana media. Marana was done by using Nimbuka Swarasa until Bhasmasiddi Lakshanas found and it took 10 Puta till it attained reddish brown colour. In order to minimize the variability of manufactured product, standardization of Bhasma is must. Swarnamakshika Shodhana procedures remove toxicity from the minerals, metals gems, and poisons and make them safe for consumption; on the other hand if the medicines contain toxicity or any form of impurities, it may cause different health hazards
