1. Training an autonomous car

This paper aims to simulate an autonomous car which is rewarded according to the actions it takes. The car learns from the actions it does and the rewards it receives for them. The project consists of an Artificial Intelligence system, i.e. an agent acts upon the environment in a virtually simulated environment. A simulator is designed which consists of multiple roads and their intersections. At each intersection, there is a traffic light. Random traffic is also generated on random roads. The agent, i.e. the car, responds to the environment (Traffic lights, Traffic). The agent is rewarded accordingly to whatever decision it makes. Using the results discussed in this paper, any vehicle will be able to cruise through traffic based on real-time environment. Furthermore, thanks to the multiple research papers, studies, and forum that helped us complete this.

2. Advanced IoT based combined remote health monitoring and alarm system

The world is changed nowadays by automation and internet of things. Our lives are also made easier and automated day by day with the development and revolution in modern technology caused by the Internet of Things. In the recent era, health hazard is not an age-dependent factor due to irregular lifestyles and busy schedule. Patients’ health is acquired by various sensors and then the data which is stored on the Internet of Things is displayed through the website that helps to access the remote monitoring. Thus, with the use of sensors, we can reduce human errors as well as the occupied space in the room is also reduced due to the size of the system. The alarm generation is used in such a manner that the patient is not devoid of taking medicines in time. In case the health parameters cross the threshold value, a notification is sent through email or SMS alert. An optimum surrounding is also created as per the patients’ health requirement. The discussion of heart rate, blood pressure, respiration rate, body temperature, body movement and saline levels is done in this paper.

6. Use of Health Information Technology (HIT) to improve urban health services: an innovative approach to augment and revitalize urban health centers of Dehradun

Urbanization has risen exponentially in Dehradun after the creation of Uttarakhand state on 9th November 2000 and Dehradun city was declared the interim capital of the state. Rapid urbanization has led to the sudden surge of migrants, expansion of the city boundaries, vast rise in slum populations and urban poverty, which have correspondingly thrown multiple challenges for managing health services and its determinants, comprising water, sanitation, waste disposal, Communicable and Non-communicable diseases, Trauma, Drugs & Alcohol abuse, Domestic violence, etc. Despite the immediacy of urban poor to urban health facilities, their access to facilities is badly confined and the urban poor are more vulnerable and worse off than their rural counterpart because of inadequacy in the urban health delivery system, ineffective outreach, and weak referral system, which are multiplied further by lack of standards and norms for the urban health facilities. Raised catastrophic out of pocket expenses has evaporated the earnings of the poor people, residing in the outskirt and slums of the city. Recognizing the seriousness of the problem, National Urban Health Mission (NUHM) was launched as a separate mission in years 2013 with an objective of improving the health status of the urban poor particularly slum dwellers and other marginalized sections. In line with the objective, Uttarakhand Health & Family Welfare Department is running 39 UHC (Urban Health Centers) in four districts of the state. This paper briefly outlines an action plan for revitalized, revamp existing urban health services in District Dehradun with use of Health Information Technology.

10. Developing islanding detection arrangement for the grid on sensing voltage or frequency variation

As the power grid failure problems continue to persist in the country, need arises to make it more efficient and effective. This is a demonstration devised to provide such kind of a system that could detect the failure in the synchronous working of the power grid in case any external supply source that is supplying to the grid is encountering any kind of abnormalities may be in current levels, voltage levels, temperature, and oil level. There are various generation units that usually supply power to the grids such as thermal plants, solar plants, hydroelectric plants etc. All the generation units that connect to the grid have to obey the rules or standards laid down for the operation of a grid. These rules involve maintaining of voltage variation, current variation, oil-level variation and temperature variation within these specified limits. If there are any kind of abnormalities or deviations from the acceptable limits laid down by the grid, it then gets crucial that the particular feeding source should get automatically disconnected from the entire grid temporarily, this process is widely termed islanding. This would prevent large-scale occurrences of events of blackouts. Hence it would be beneficial and wise if we could have a system that would be so efficient that it could issue intimations about the potential variations in the arrangements and in addition provide the exact distance of the fault location on a feeder line from the base grid and keep the particular source temporarily on a standby basis while this process takes place. Variation of the system voltage should be around +-5% as per central electricity authority of India Regulations, 2010. This paper is an approach to devising out a system that helps the grid resolve problems related to black out situations hence making it a smart grid.

15. Production of hydrogen from industrial and domestic wastewater

This project offers an overview of the technologies for hydrogen production from wastewater. Electrolysis is a promising option for hydrogen production from renewable resources. An electrolysis cell was designed to produce a useful hydrogen gas, from the wastewater treatment process. The electrical energy efficiency of commercial water electrolyzers is normally limited by internal energy losses; heat generated at economic current density levels exceeds the heat required to maintain the temperature of the electrolyte, and cooling must be used. Development of activated electrode systems and of improved electrode geometries promises to reduce these losses to the point where efficiency will be limited instead by the requirement that sufficient heat is generated internally to maintain the electrolyte temperature. The limitation on electrical energy efficiency then becomes thermodynamic. Options indicated for development of advanced technology are considered. These are then related to the approaches being taken in major worldwide programs which are working to reduce the cost of hydrogen production from wastewater.

19. Improving security and performance by implementing FS Algorithm in distributed cloud

The distributed file system is used to store a large number of files. The availability of the file is considered as the main factor for the availability of the system. The availability of the system is based on the retrieval time of the file. Metadata servers are separated from the data server and the replication of metadata is being implemented in the distributed file system to increase the availability. But there is a security issue in replication of metadata in a single server. When whole data is in sequential order if a single server gets hacked or failure occurs the entire data will be lost from the server. To overcome this problem, apply FS Algorithm. The scope of the paper is to Detach and reproduce methodology: divide a file into fragments, and replicate the fragmented data over the cloud node in a shuffling order.

20. Query optimization in web search engines using dynamic frequency modulation

Query processing nodes are core part of web search engines which process user queries, these units devour a notable amount of power, which is mostly liable to their cpu’s to ensure lower levels of latency (ruling out heat factor).Where mainstream users are likely to look for split-second reaction times. In any circumstance, clients can scarcely see reaction times that are quicker than their expectation. Hence, we use pesos algorithm to assign the most relatable processor clock-rate to course the query on per core basis using the inputs from YDS algorithm which calculates the query process volume, then processing the input query to the cost-based query optimizer (gporca) which replaces the stock reverse index of a query processing node with sub-query unnesting method, which uses the dvfs to regulate the wattage by increasing the efficiency. Thus reducing the factors affecting cpu’s longivety.

22. Study and prototype of the thermoacoustic refrigerator

A thermoacoustic refrigeration device (TAR) includes an acoustic wave generation device arranged directed to the channel of a hollow tube, and a stack provided at a predetermined position in the channel of the tube. A temperature difference is obtained across the stack by an acoustic wave emitted from the acoustic wave generation device. The working fluid used is air. This work examined the performance of thermoacoustic refrigeration, which is the theory of using sound waves to cool the air. The main aim of this work is to design and construct a small thermoacoustic refrigerator from inexpensive and readily available parts and analyzed the results. The design includes the dimension of the stack, selection of acoustic driver, an acoustic resonator. The experiments showed that while thermoacoustic cooling was possible, high efficiency was beyond our reach due to materials restrictions. We obtained the temperature difference of 7°C for constructing this simple device. However, from these limitations devised several proposals for increasing the performance of thermoacoustic refrigerators.Experiments show the performance can improve by using a better material such as high heat carrying capacity materials and the working fluids like inert gases.

23. Climatology lab for airports

The task of the Air Traffic Control (ATC) is to optimize the use of airspace and to avoid collision among aerial vehicles. Airspace can be defined as a set of the infinite number of planes, direction, routes etc. In last few decades, there have been many problems related the safe landing of Airplane and their accidents due to various reasons like the bursting of a tier, poor visibility, lack of synchronization between the plane and the base station. These result in the accident of airplanes. We have developed a “Climatology Lab for Airports” to solve the above-mentioned problems and ensure the safety of passengers. The main objective of our project is to avoid these type of accidents by proper synchronization between the base station and Airplane. Our project is also used to increase the air quality traffic and to reduce the downtime of activities i.e. the time required for identifying each and every climatological condition like pressure, humidity, temperature etc. is reduced since a single device gathers all the necessary information at a time using sensors. Using this system various collision and problems related to air traffic control has been minimized. The system uses internet of things (IoT) technology and will prevent the malfunctioning or damage of the equipment used to the risk factor that the sensor might stop working is minimized. Here we would like to provide an economic and affordable solution for the perfect takeoff and landing system for airports with physical ambient conditions of the atmosphere with an audio-visual networking.

24. Anonymous attribute-based encryption using privacy-preserving, shoulder surfing

Cloud services is a great opportunity for the users to enjoy the on-demand cloud applications without considering the local infrastructure limitations. Several schemes have been proposed for access control of outsourced data in cloud computing. Security is the primary obstacle that prevents the wide adoption of this promising computing model. Identity-based encryption (IBE) is the sender of a message can specify an identity such that only a receiver with matching identity can decrypt it. In the KP-ABE, a ciphertext is associated with a set of attributes, and a private key is associated with a monotonic tree, which describes this user’s identity. A user can decrypt the ciphertext if and only if the access tree in his private key is satisfied by the attributes in the ciphertext. However, the encrypter does not have entire control over the encryption policy. Furthermore, when a re-encryption occurs, all of the users in the same system must have their private keys re-issued so as to gain access to the re-encrypted files, and this process causes considerable problems in implementation. All problems and overhead are solved in the CP-ABE. In this, ciphertexts are created with an access structure, which specifies the encryption policy, and private keys are generated according to users’ attributes. A user can decrypt the ciphertext if and only if his attributes in the private key satisfy the access tree specified in the ciphertext. Hence the encrypter holds the encryption policy. Also, issued private keys will not be modified till the whole system reboots.

35. Preventing distributed denial of service attacks and data security

In recent years, Path identifiers(PID)are used as inter-domain routing objects in the network. However, the PIDs used in existing approaches are static, which makes it easy for attackers to launch distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) flooding attacks. To address this issue, introduce a D-PID, framework that uses PIDs negotiated between neighboring domains as inter-domain routing objects. In DPID, the PID of an inter-domain path connecting two domains is kept secret and changes dynamically. Security of data which shared in the network can be ensured with cryptographic techniques also.DPID mechanism with data secure provides more chance to prevent DDoS attacks in the network.

37. Smart energy management

Smart Energy Management (SEM) is a new emerging technology that will be mandatory for the future electrical network to generate, transmit, distribute, manage and monitor electrical energy and its usage. The major contribution will be from the communication technologies specifically wireless technologies enabling two-way communications. So far, the interface of smart devices is limited to the transmission and distribution side of the power grid, while its interface with the consumer as well as consumer energy consumption is not given major significance [1]. Based on the case study conducted in our university, this paper proposes a Smart Energy Management System (SEMs), that will make use of Internet Of Things (IoT) along with more than one type of wireless communication techniques based on the requirement, to collect energy information from the users and communicate it to the central server. An intelligent sensor node is deployed in the building in order to use the energy, based on the environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, etc). We have proposed decision algorithms which make use of the sensor values for optimization of energy consumption.

39. Technology challenge white paper: Coping with spool space challenge in Teradata

Teradata is a high-performance database system. It uses spool space to perform queries on the database. It writes the result from each step in the query execution plan to disk to a spool file and subsequently reading these results. Hence it is important to plan spool space utilization in an optimized way, else we will end up with spool space error. Spool space and capacity planning are mutually dependent concepts. It is important to increase the system's performance without making any hardware changes. It is the challenge as data is continuously increasing and most systems will respond to increased load with some degree of decreasing performance. Considering the importance a lot of work has been done all over the world on DWH performance tuning, it is critical to understand multiple facts to be considered to ensure optimal utilization of Teradata Spool Space. If we are using the Spool Space in an optimal way then we are increasing the system performance without causing any additional cost to an organization. Poor planning will result out of spool space memory and hence can lead to failure of the Teradata based application. Understanding of spool space, its allocation, causes of spool space error, mitigation plan are detailed in this white paper.

40. An automated method for characterization of facial expression

This paper presents a new facial expression technique, locality directional ternary pattern (LDTP), for facial emotion recognition. LDTP efficiently encode various information of expression-related features (ı.e., eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth and lips) by using the directional information and advanced pattern in order to take advantage of the robust of advanced patterns in the edge region while overcoming the weakness of other methods in smooth regions. Our proposal, unlike existing face description methods that divide the face into multiple regions and sample the codes uniformly, uses a two-level grid to construct the face descriptor while sampling emotion information at different scales. We use a grid for stable codes (highly related to non-expression), and another one for active codes (highly related to expression). This multi-level approach enables us to do a finer description of facial motions while still characterizing the other features of the expression. Moreover, we learn the active pattern codes from the expression-related facial regions. We tested our method by using person-dependent and independent cross-validation schemes to evaluate the performance. We show that our approaches improve the overall accuracy of facial expression recognition on six data sets.

41. LPG refrigeration

The climatic change and global warming demand accessible and affordable cooling systems in the form of refrigerators and air conditioners. The energy crisis persists all across the globe. We think of recovering the energy which is already spent but not being utilized further, to overcome this crisis with no huge investment. To address this problem we designed and analyzed a refrigerator which uses the energy spent in pressurizing and liquefying the LPG. LPG is extracted at high pressure in the liquefied state from the storage device. Its pressure and the flow rate is controlled by a valve connects it to the evaporator at the requisite pressure in requisite quantity. An evaporator is housed through which LPG flows. It gets converted from liquefied state to gaseous state and expands. So it absorbs heat in the form of latent heat. Due to this process, heat from surrounding is absorbed so cooling effect is produced. This effect is magnified by an evaporator. A network of pipes containing gas is covered by thin and closely spaced fins which help in effective and fast cooling. The insulating material helps in storing the cooling effect for a longer period of time. The LPG leaves the evaporator in gaseous form; it is then directed towards the burner where it is to be used. Thus, no LPG is consumed for cooling purpose.

43. Coordination of SVC and PSS for stability enhancement of DFIG-based offshore wind farm connected to a multi-machine system

This paper presents an implementation of Static Var Compensator (SVC) & a Power System Stabilizer (PSS) to improve the transient stability of a DFIG-based offshore wind farm (OWF) connected to a multi-machine system. In wind farm connected grids, maintain the stability of grid and wind farm during transient disturbances is a serious issue. Due to grid faults wind DFIG trip and synchronous machines start oscillation due to insufficient damping. To check out the stability of proposed system a three-phase to ground (LLLG) fault has been taken at bus number six of three machine nine bus system. The test system is modelled and simulated in MATLAB/Simulink platform. In absence of SVC during three phase to ground fault DFIG trip due to the reduction in its terminal voltage below a critical value. But in presence of SVC wind farm protection system does not trip DFIG due reactive power support. And in presence of both SVC & PSS synchronous machine oscillations are also damped, hence settling time and overshoot of a system also reduced.

44. Advance evaporative cooling system

Direct evaporative cooling (DEC) uses evaporating water, combined with a wetted medium to cool the temperature of the air as it passes through. Heat is removed from the surrounding air in the vaporization of the water by passing through or around a wetted surface. The air is cooled in the process and the humidity is increased. Unfortunately, evaporative cooling requires an abundant water source and is only effective when the relative humidity is low, restricting its efficient use to dry climates. The air supplied by the evaporative cooler is nearly 100% humid. Very humid air prevents the evaporative cooling of the sweaty or wet skin. The High humidity in air accelerates corrosion which considerably shortens the life of the electronic equipment. High humidity in air may cause condensation. Direct evaporative Coolers are aesthetically unattractive. The efficiency of direct evaporative cooler mostly depends on the cooling pad and hence, the material used in the cooling pad plays a very vital role. In this project, a new model of direct evaporative cooler having a good aesthetic look and light in weight will be fabricated. The performance of this fabricated cooler will be analyzed by using cooling pads of four different materials such as cellulose paper pad, wood fibers, wood wool (Aspen) and coconut fibers. Apart from these four types of cooling pads, also the performance of direct evaporative cooler will be analyzed by using a combination of three different types of cooling pads simultaneously on three sides of the cooler. Two most important terms considered in this analysis are temperature and humidity. The readings of these two terms will be taken for each type of cooling pad and also, the further calculations will be done based on these readings

People use Internet for different purposes e.g. social networking, blogging etc. with respect to their context. This leads to dynamic change in creation and distribution of document streams over the Internet. This would challenge the topic modelling and evolution of individual topics. In this paper, we have proposed Sequential Topic Patterns (STPs) mining over the published user-aware document streams and formulate the problem of mining User- Aware Rare Sequential Topic Patterns(URSTPs) in document streams on the Internet in order to find rare users. They are generally rare and infrequent over the Internet. For URSTPs mining we need to perform three phases: pre-processing to extract topics, generating STPs, determining URSTPs by rarity analysis of STPs. The experiment can be performed on both real times and synthetic data-sets. In the proposed work, we have focused on synthetic datasets.

51. Molecular characterization of marine fishes using ITS2 region of ribosomal DNA

The universal phylogenetic tree not only spans all extant life, but its root and earliest branchings represent stages in the evolutionary process before modern cell types had come into being. The evolution of the cell is an interplay between vertically derived and horizontally acquired variation. Primitive cellular entities were necessarily simpler and more modular in design that is modern cells. Consequently, horizontal gene transfer early on was pervasive, dominating the evolutionary dynamic. The root of the universal phylogenetic tree represents the first stage in cellular evolution when the evolving cell became sufficiently integrated and stable to the erosive effects of horizontal gene transfer that true organismal lineages could exist.

52. Design and analysis of an independent suspension system

An All-terrain vehicle (ATV), as we can understand from the name itself is a vehicle that is designed to handle a wider variety of terrain when compared to most other vehicles. Over the period we have seen that ATVs have been useful in performing a large number of applications ranging from desert to military and even jungle safaris. The efficiency can easily be determined on the basis of the ability of the ATV to sustain the irregularities of the terrain with ease. There is a system that implements a vital role that is of damping the vibration and undesired commotion. This is known as the suspension system and independent suspension system can work even at the places we can’t imagine. There are mainly two types of suspension systems, dependent suspension systems, and independent suspension systems. In this paper, the study is done on the topic design and analysis of independent suspension system for an all-terrain vehicle. The purpose of this study is to design an independent type suspension system which can rely on any type of on and off-roading conditions. This study is mainly focused on how to provide the driver comfort by reducing the effects of bumps and also on how to improve the dynamic parameters of the vehicle. An important part of the vehicle is the suspension system because it completely helps in resisting the unwanted forces in order to make the driver feel comfortable while driving. In order to make the wheels rise and fall on their own without causing any effect to the opposite wheel, an independent suspension is used. As per the application requirements, the front suspension and rear suspension of a vehicle can be made different. The paper focuses on the designing, analysis, and simulation of an ATV suspension system which was designed for a national level event namely Mahindra BAJA SAEINDIA 2018.

53. Investigation of mechanical properties of KMnO4 treated Sansevieria cylindrical fiber reinforced polymer composite

The tensile, flexural and water absorption properties of randomly oriented short Sansevieria cylindrical fiber and Epoxy (SCFs) composites are described. Composites were fabricated using Potassium Permanganate (KMnO4) treated Sansevieria cylindrical fibers (SCFs) with the fiber length of 30mm each and 40% weight percentage of fiber. At this length and weight percentage, the tensile, flexural and water absorption properties of the composite were increased and a curtailment in properties occurred for higher fiber length composites. To improve the interfacial bond between SCFs and Epoxy resin, chemical surface treatments have been performed on the fibers in varying composition of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% of Potassium Permanganate (KMnO4) in distilled water respectively. Each type of treated SCFs samples was separately used for fabricating the composites. The fiber density and fineness were approximately 0.915 ± 0.005 g/cm3 and 9 Tex, respectively. Above the other KMnO4 treatment compositions, 30% KMnO4 treated SCFs revealed the optimum increase in tensile, flexural and water absorption properties.

55. Economic thoughts of Pasumpon – An overview

Being a practical politician of pre and post independence period Muthuramalinga Thevar was aware of the economic trends and situations of India. He was always a supporter of the poor and endeavoured to illuminate the downtrodden from the obscure nature of economic backwardness. He always stood for the removal of the darkness of slavery. He desired to have the freedom of people from hunger and want. He was keen on the removal of ups and downs in the society. Muthuramalinga Thevar was clear that the freedom on granted by the British never changed the downtrodden economic condition of India because the labourers were starving continuously and remained constantly unchanged in their own economic standards. He vehemently criticised the removal of the ration system brought by Rajaji in 1952. He pinpointed that the British allowed 16 ounces rice per head but the Congress Government after 1947 reduced it to six ounces. It was realised that at this critical juncture the stoppage of ration system would cause untold miseries. The poor people could not get the required essential commodities at a higher price in the open market and that would place them under economic difficulties. By granting land the government must list the Harijans as forward people. If they obtained lands they would plough the land and earn their livelihood by their own work. They need not be coolies or wage earners. Further by the introduction of scientific method of agriculture the Government should avoid the migration of the unemployed rural farmers to the urban industrial centres. This was the practical economic measure suggested by Muthuramalinga Thevar for the development of rural India and those who were engaged in agriculture. He offered his wealth for the benefit of others. For equal and equitable distribution of wealth disparities in the works undertaken should be eliminated. There were no accusations of any nature on Muthuramalinga Thevar due to his flawless practical economic pursuits. As he could not bear with the sufferings of the economically poor and backward people he allowed many poor children and youths to stay in his home and offered them food and clothing without any expectations from them. So, his economy was a humanistic one. He openly declared that economic issues lead to inequalities. If the backward class people are rich and wealthy, even the well to do people of higher order would not hesitate to have cordial relationships with them. So, according to him, money alone was the deciding factor of social gradations. Thus, by his views, Muthuramalinga Thevar proved himself a real and practical economist. His economic viewpoints will be beneficial for all periods because his economic approaches were all based on his own direct observations of the existing conditions and not theory oriented.

56. Role of missionaries in Indian education

The freedom given by the Charter Act of 1813 had so far been taken advantage of principally by the missionary societies from the United Kingdom. But the Charter Act of 1833 brought missions from other countries also on the scene. Prominent among them were the German and American Missions. The Basel Mission Society began work at Mangalore in 1834 and soon extended its activities very largely in the Kannada and Malayalam territory. Other important German societies were the Protestant Lutheran Missionary Society (founded at Dresden in 1836) and Women’s Association of Education of Females in the Orient (Founded in Berlin in 1842) both of which did considerable missionary work in India. Equally important was the appearance of the “well - manned and richly financed” American societies amongst which may be mentioned the American Baptist Union, the American Board, and the American Presbyterian Mission Board.

57. Review of management of saccro-coccygeal pilonidal sinus by Limberg flap – A prospective study

Introduction: Saccro-Coccygeal Pilonidal Sinus (SCPS)1 is a common affliction seen mostly in young slightly obese hirsute males. There are many ways to manage this, most commonly being excision and leaving a raw area to heal by secondary intention. This procedure necessitates long periods of dressing which causes much distress and inconvenience to patients. Also this method does not address to one of the basic causes of Sacro-coccygeal pilonidal sinus (SCPS) which is suction effect of a deep natal cleft. The other procedures are difficult to master and have their own set of issues for successful management. Methods: This was a prospective study was carried out in the Department of Surgery of a secondary care government hospital for a period of 18 months (July 2016 to December 2017). The total number of cases of SCPS surgery was 50. Here the focus is on management of SCPS by complete excision of infected tissue and on table primary coverage of defect using a Limberg flap with a follow up for 12 months. Results: Of the 50 patients operated there was seroma, wound infection and partial necrosis of flap in 13 patients. However there was no recurrence. When the wound was large and wound infections too were common in large wounds > 6cms transversely and 7cms vertically. Conclusions: SCPS disease can easily be managed by rhomboid excision and reconstruction by Limberg flap as it addresses the cause of sinus and has low complication rates, short hospitalisation, no recurrence rates, earlier healing and shorter time off work. The surgery can be easily mastered. However the dimensions of defect must be <6cms, lower end should be away from anal verge and preoperatively the sinus must be lavaged to have low infection rates and flap tip necrosis. We recommend Limberg flap as preferred surgery for cases of the Saccro-coccygeal Pilonidal sinus.

60. Ventricular septal defect closure in ventricular septal rupture post-myocardial infarction: A case report

Ventricular septal rupture (VSR) after acute myocardial infarction is increasingly rare in the percutaneous coronary intervention era but mortality remains high. The event occurs 2-8 days after an infarction and often precipitates cardiogenic shock. [1] The differential diagnosis of postinfarction cardiogenic shock should exclude free ventricular wall rupture and rupture of the papillary muscles Prompt diagnosis is key. Alternatively, delaying surgery in stable patients may provide better results. Prolonged medical management is usually futile, percutaneous VSR closure may be used as a temporizing measure to reduce shunt, or for patients in the sub-acute to chronic period.

61. India: Gender inequality in demography

Indian demography (population statistics) never shows the balance in last hundred years between male and female population. The increasing need for son increases the numerical difference between two sex. Such imbalance was continuously found in the census report from undivided India 1901 to last census 2011. The gender inequality in India not only changes the social status of the woman but also built a very negative view of the female. Various states in India have very low sex-ratio. Internationally, the death rate of India female child is 75% higher than the male child in India. Women literacy rate is also very poor, even it is below than the average literacy rate of India.

62. Study of baul community family relation and their philosophy: An overview of West Bengal

This title framing on “Study of Baul Community Family Relation and their Philosophy: An Overview of West Bengal” has been taken, because different problems can be solved by this subject. To focus the Baul Community Family Relation and their Philosophy is main object and for this the subject Peaceful Co-relation among Baul Community and Society has been chosen here. Though the existence Society has a value, yet especially importance has been given on value-added process which can be more valuable in our Society by Baul traditional, conceptual and spirituality. It has been shown how the Baul Songs, Dresses, Musical Instruments and their Behavioral approach are. It has also been discussed here about their Birth, Age, Population, Livelihood, Jobs, location. A gap between Baul Community and Society has been focused here. Another part of their Cosmic Energy, Cosmic Love and Cosmic Sex have been approached here in which form they believe. It has also been shown that they have National, International and Worldwide Value Ethically, Philosophically and Commercially. It is matter of thinking how such unknown common matter can widely spread out at home and abroad and how it is possible to strengthen the structural unit of our country in the sphere of applicability of Ideology, humanities, fraternities and equalities. I want to show these here. It has also been known that economically many backward families have not got their socio-economical respect yet now, but I have indicated that they get these in their lives. It has been seen that Indian folk culture and the Bauls Community are co-related and they maintain a socio environmental balance of mankind. Earning livelihood, taking responsibility of the family and properly maintaining the family is very difficult in this time to the poor people. The way of earning a normal income has been found out and even there is a possibility of being a remarkable way in folk culture. And the concept to give pleasure to the family has been hidden in it. It is a suitable folk unit for the developing and under-developing countries like us. It has a far-spreading result which is able to strengthen the Economical, Political, and Social bound in our society. As the concept is very ideal for this country, because most Bauls are Illiterate, Below Poverty, some of them are Addicted, some family members are involved in Quarreling every day, lead an Unhappy life and they have Little Social Respect comparatively. The fundamental argument and importance of family life and philosophical observation of Bengal’s Baul has been presented here. The importance of analysis of philosophical observation and the family life of Bengal’s Baul has come to say about fundamental thinking, fundamental theory is nothing. Here ‘Fundamental’ indicates ‘True or ‘False’. The rest theories of world stand on this theory and those are derivative theory. It has also been seen that in the conflict between True and False the victory of truth is ideal for society formation. But it varies from man to man. So the presentation of fundamental theory depends on some fixed men, places and fixed thinking, which is ideal for those men of those places.To present this theory it is not only difficult, but complicated too. So I am trying to present the main matters of Bauls’ family life and their philosophical aspect by accepting the truth and application. The Baul community is still now at swinging situation in the sphere of their social respect.The Baul community separate from their main stream and is trying to form a new society coming out from their traditional social system, which has become a mixed community. It is understood from the customs, manners, evil practices into the culture of pure Baul community that the tradition of Baul culture will be ruined like other folk culture for negligence. As the Baul society remains at the marginal level of total social system and a huge personal income is not seen among them in such developed eco-social system. So they will go to the level of negligence, unhealthy position. They are seen to take part more on sexuality for believing on physiology. As a result too-much reproduction, a sexual relation with other women, to form more families, haphazard maintaining system of families, negligence of education of their children, unconfined life-lead, even a game of hidden the truth is going on in this society. Cosmic energy, cosmic love and cosmic relation – these three together is mission and vision of Baul community which is coming in front of humanity gradually. But this concept is being faded out that cannot be understood. ‘Be simple, be soften, Be man co-related with man. ‘Sahaj Hao, Saral Hao, Manush Dhare Manush Hao’. It is understood that those who believe in this Man, those who are inspired by this idealism are very soften, simple and very ordinary man. Though they have nothing, yet they are maker of perfect man. They can change and rectify the structure and system of country. They are the policy maker of our society and they have its main theory of society making policy in their hand. They are also minstrel poet (Charan Kabi) and they deliver the speech of equality, fraternity and liberty without hesitation and bravely. They are now drowned. It is said if full of human resource is utilized; the blessing golden pot of society will be full. According to the poet, ‘Emon Manob Jamin Roilo Patit, Abad Korle Phalto Sona’. So today the time has come to co-relate among all; e.g self, group, community, Government and other organizations. As it has been got honored as social value, so the Bauls theory can be started in the level of basic, advanced and corporate level. In an international field it has spread out and it is able to bring honor for country. The economical development, socialization and understanding have been increased among persons, families and society. To involvement in different constructive works in society has been increased. In some fields they have taken a Role of Leadership. Overall they have turned into an Icon.

63. Augmented reality based literature analyzer

Augmented Reality (AR) is a growing area in virtual reality research. The world environment around us provides a wealth of information that is difficult to duplicate in a computer. An augmented reality system generates a composite view for the user. In this project, we were tasked with exploring present innovations and industry practices in the area of Augmented Reality. This knowledge was used to create an interactive literature analyzer using an AR application. This study aimed to implement Augmented Reality on literature like novels, magazines, children’s books by recognizing novel’s cover as a marker and to add the novel’s details on top of the cover in the device upon recognition. This way, a person interested in buying or reading a novel can have an authentic review of the book and then decide whether to buy it or not. The person will be able to read about the Author, the rating, the publishing date, and the preface of the book. Also, a Farm Animals children’s book is made in which farm animals image is used as a marker and their 3D view is shown. This project should prove quite beneficial in the real world as it will make books more interactive and attractive to students. It will be used in schools, college's libraries and in bookselling stores. This project will make it easier for people to decide which books to read and which to skip since they would have an authentic review to judge the book. Also, the AR 3D models book can make learning fun for children. Today augmented reality has spread its wings not just into gaming but also into our day to day life. From retail business to the health sector. Augmented reality has shown its capabilities and showcased its future scopes to all of us. The future of augmented reality seems really bright. Like any other evolving technology, AR also faces some obstacles regarding technical issues, to social and ethical problems to financial problem. Where none of the issues seems overwhelming. With time, all the technical issues will be resolved and AR will definitely showcase something that would fill the gaps between social and ethical issues too.
