    The Battlespaces as we know are carried out using heavy ammunition and human resource. Enormous manpower is needed in the wars that are fought. The nations use this manpower and firepower to defend themselves in the case of emergencies. Numerous rapidly advancing and emerging technology areas—including artificial intelligence (AI), unmanned systems, and directed-energy weapons-will likely affect how the nation uses the manpower and firepower for defense. In this Perspective, we discuss considerations for the Japanese Ministry of Defense (MOD) and the Indian Ministry of Defense as to how these nations are considering the possible investments in advancing and emerging technology areas to help the Defense Forces

    A study on Ricci solitons in generalized complex space form

    In this paper we obtain the condition for the existence of Ricci solitons in non-at generalized complex space form by using Eisenhart problem. Also it is proved that if (ɡ; V, ʎ) is Ricci soliton then V is solenoidal if and only if it is shrinking or steady or expanding depending upon the sign of scalar curvature.peerReviewe

    Discovering lesser known molecular players and mechanistic patterns in Alzheimer's disease using an integrative disease modelling approach

    Convergence of exponentially advancing technologies is driving medical research with life changing discoveries. On the contrary, repeated failures of high-profile drugs to battle Alzheimer's disease (AD) has made it one of the least successful therapeutic area. This failure pattern has provoked researchers to grapple with their beliefs about Alzheimer's aetiology. Thus, growing realisation that Amyloid-β and tau are not 'the' but rather 'one of the' factors necessitates the reassessment of pre-existing data to add new perspectives. To enable a holistic view of the disease, integrative modelling approaches are emerging as a powerful technique. Combining data at different scales and modes could considerably increase the predictive power of the integrative model by filling biological knowledge gaps. However, the reliability of the derived hypotheses largely depends on the completeness, quality, consistency, and context-specificity of the data. Thus, there is a need for agile methods and approaches that efficiently interrogate and utilise existing public data. This thesis presents the development of novel approaches and methods that address intrinsic issues of data integration and analysis in AD research. It aims to prioritise lesser-known AD candidates using highly curated and precise knowledge derived from integrated data. Here much of the emphasis is put on quality, reliability, and context-specificity. This thesis work showcases the benefit of integrating well-curated and disease-specific heterogeneous data in a semantic web-based framework for mining actionable knowledge. Furthermore, it introduces to the challenges encountered while harvesting information from literature and transcriptomic resources. State-of-the-art text-mining methodology is developed to extract miRNAs and its regulatory role in diseases and genes from the biomedical literature. To enable meta-analysis of biologically related transcriptomic data, a highly-curated metadata database has been developed, which explicates annotations specific to human and animal models. Finally, to corroborate common mechanistic patterns — embedded with novel candidates — across large-scale AD transcriptomic data, a new approach to generate gene regulatory networks has been developed. The work presented here has demonstrated its capability in identifying testable mechanistic hypotheses containing previously unknown or emerging knowledge from public data in two major publicly funded projects for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Epilepsy diseases

    A GENERAL THEORY OF FOOD WEB CYCLE- PART ONE

    ABSTRACT: Social systems, and ecosystems, its sustentative limits, singular pauses, logical attributes, real relations, expressional proposition, heterogeneous complications,- has been developed at the forefront of science. Key concepts of this new way of understanding complex systems –are theories of chaos, attractors, fractals, dissipative structures, self-organization, and autopoietic networks. The intellectual tradition of systems thinking, and the models of living systems developed during the early decades of the century, forms the conceptual and historical roots of the new scientific framework, current models and theories may be seen as an outline of an emerging theory of living systems. What is now emerging at the forefront of science is a coherent scientific theory that offers, for the first time, a unified view of mind, matter, and life. In the following we give a general theory for three pairs: (a) Terrestrial Organism (b)Oxygen Consumption (c)Dead Organic Matter (d)Decomposer Organisms (e) Green Plants (f) Nutrients. Expediency and contingency of such studies are of imminent nature, in consideration to the fact that ozone layer depletions by aerosols have been at the centre stage and the incorporation of green house effects in the cycle is of utmost importance

    Retrieval of Medical Details using Biometrics for a Smart City

    In real world problems time is an important constraint in health related problems time is of utmost importance as someone’s life is at stake. So here we develop a system which can provide real time data about person’s medical history in a moving ambulance so these details can further be used to cure the victim and thus provide an easy and reliant system to the medical department. The proposed system uses fingerprint matching as an identification parameter for retrieval of medical details. Biometric system has shown promising future and it has been researched for long period of time. For fingerprint recognition biometrics is used and for fingerprint matching minutiae algorithm is used

    Efficacy evaluation of antidepressant drugs utilized at tertiary care centre in North Karnataka in psychiatric outpatient department

    Get PDF
    Background: Depression is the major psychotic disorder affecting 9.5% of population worldwide. Present study investigates the prescribing patterns of different antidepressants evaluating their efficacy.Methods: This was a prospective, observational study which was conducted in the out-patient department of Psychiatry and Pharmacology in Gulbarga Institute of Medical Sciences, Kalaburagi. A total of 200 cases were enrolled for the present study. Statistical analysis for efficacy was done using Wilcoxson’s signed rank test.Results: Predominantly, females suffered from depression when compared to male counterparts. In our study, monotherapy was practiced more frequently than polytherapy with 2 or more drugs. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like Escitalopram was found out to be the most widely used antidepressant drug.Conclusions: Among antidepressant medications, SSRIs are preferred over others because of their better side effect profile

    A study on hypersurface of complex space form

    We show that quasi-umbilical, generalized quasi-umbilical, super quasi-umbilical hypersurfaces of a complex space form are quasi-Einstein, mixed generalized quasi-Einstein and mixed super quasi-Einstein manifolds, respectively. We also prove that a Bochner at space of generalized complex space form is an Einstein manifold
