The stochastic boosted regression trees (BRT) technique has the capability to quantify and explain the relationships between explanatory variables. We applied this machine learning modelling technique to derive the relationships between the gases air pollutants, meteorological conditions and time system variables of particulate matter (PM10) concentrations. In order to get lowest prediction error and to avoid over-fitting, the parameters of the BRT model need to be tuned. In this experiment, 25 BRT models were generated from 14 years’ worth of hourly data (122,736 a one hour averaged data from January 2000 to December 2013 gathered from four Continuous Automated Air Quality Monitoring Stations in peninsular Malaysia (located in Klang, Selangor (CA0011), Perai, Penang (CA0003), Kota Bharu, Kelantan (CA0022) and Kemaman, Terengganu (CA0002)). Seventy percent of the data were used for training and 30 percent for validation of the models. An experiment was conducted to determine the best iteration that could model hourly PM10 concentrations by optimizing the BRT parameter which are learning rate (lr), tree complexity (tc) and number of trees (nt). Five different lr (0.001, 0.005, 0.01, 0.05 and 0.1) were tested with different tree complexities (1 to 20) in the BRT model development process. From the experiment, the combination of lr = 0.05 and tc = 5 for the training set for the BRT model achieved the lowest root mean squared error (RMSE) compared to the other tested combinations. It was also found that the number of trees increased with the increment in the number of samples. A high coefficient of determinant (R2) value (0.90) for the linear relationship between the number of samples and nt was found for all the four stations. The optimum number of trees for the model was estimated by using 10-fold cross-validation. It was found that the best number of iterations for Klang, Perai, Kota Bahru and Kemaman were 12,327, 32,987, 16,370 and 57,634, respectively. The prediction accuracy of the model was tested by using the fraction of prediction namely a factor of two (FAC2), mean bias, mean gross error, RMSE, correlation coefficient (R), and index of agreement (IOA). The prediction performance of the final BRT model based on the R value was 0.81, 0.78, 0.85 and 0.81 for for Perai, Kemaman, Klang and Kota Bahru, respectively, which indicates that the BRT model developed and applicability of this can be used in other atmospheric environment data.

This paper describes the design of a 400 V, three-phase voltage source inverter system using Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) control technique. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is an internal control technique for inverters. The Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique is the type of PWM used in this work. The aim is to reduce the harmonic produced by the inverter. Current standards require that total harmonic distortion (THD) be minimal. A three-phase SPWM signal is implemented in order to create an output voltage which is closer to a true sine wave and reduce harmonics. The development and model were implemented using MATLAB Simulink soft-ware and hardware parameters. The addition of a low pass filter circuit aids the achievement of smoother sine waveforms and a reduced THD value of 0.17%. The proposed concept has been validated through experimentally on a laboratory prototype by using DSP TMS320F28335 real-time digital control. The experimental outcomes emphasize the authenticity of the suggested technique in reducing harmonics, which can be promising to power quality improvement.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic medical procedure that utilizes solid attractive fields and radio waves to deliver definite pictures of within the body. Extensive research has been completed into whether the attractive fields and radio waves utilized during MRI sweeps could represent a hazard to the human body. No proof has been found to propose there's a hazard, which means MRI outputs are one of the most secure restorative methodology accessible. MRI has several advantages which make it ideal in numerous situations, in particular, it can identify small changes of structures inside the body. The disadvantage is the noise that degrades the quality of the image. A threestep processing algorithm is proposed to reduce this noise. Here, first it includes soft thresholding in wavelet domain where the original image is divided into blocks that do not overlap. Then it includes restoration of the object boundaries and texture which are lost as a result of the first step and finally enhancing the image using CLAHE (Contrast Limiting Adaptive Histogram Equalization). It is then analyzed using the error parameters like peak signal to noise ratio and mean square error.

Water scarcity is a serious issue that has to be addressed in order to face the increasing water demands. Due to this issue, agricultural crops do not receive the required amount of water. So, it is necessary to have a proper technique to determine the water requirement for a particular crop. Evapotranspiration (ET), a process which is reliant on numerous climatic conditions, quantifies the loss of water from soil and crops through evaporation and transpiration processes respectively. Reference evapotranspiration ET is a concept of estimating ET from the reference surface which resembles an in-depth surface of green grass of stable height, actively growing, fully shading the surface with sufficient water. The amount of water required for a crop is thus determined by multiplying ETo with the crop coefficient (Kc) which depends on the growth stages and duration of a crop. So, evapotranspiration is considered to be one of the successful approaches to optimize the usage of water for crops. A literature survey is carried out on the popular methods of estimating ETo and their merits, demerits are discussed in this paper. Also, the impact of various climatic factors on ETo is presented. From the survey, it is known that ETo is estimated using conventional and non-conventional methods like Penman-Monteith, Blaney-Criddle, Hargreaves, ANN and WNN, regression and fuzzy logic. Humidity, temperature, wind speed, and solar radiation are the factors that have a major impact on estimating ETo. Generally, conventional methods are tedious since it requires experimental setups and more climatic data to determine ETo which are not available in many under developing countries. Thus, in this case, non-conventional methods are found to yield better results from the survey.

Published: December 2019

This paper attempts to test the co-integration association flanked by financial inclusion and economic growth. The study uses a composite score of financial inclusion and GDP per capita as a proxy of economic growth for its empirical analysis. The panel data covers a large sample of 52 countries for the time period 2005-2015, separated in three groups depending on their income level – low, middle and high. For the analysis, first the study constructed an index of financial inclusion (IFI) utilizing the methodology adopted by Sarma [41]. Then the study applied unit root checks to validate if the variables are non-stationary and co-integrated. Last, the study utilized Pedroni’s panel co-integration analysis to investigate the long-run affiliation. The study also cross checked the results using Fisher’s panel co-integration test. The empirical analysis is based on 11 countries from high income economies, 19 countries from middle income economies and 21 countries from low income economies. The findings confirm a long-run association flanked by economic growth and index of financial inclusion for the middle income countries. This concludes that financial inclusion can contribute substantially to economic growth through better penetration, availability and use of financial services in the middle income countries.

Among the law enforcement work in the criminal justice system, police are the most attractive, because in it there are many human involvement as decision makers. The police can in essence be seen as a living law, because it is in the hands of the police that the law is embodied, at least in the criminal law. If the law aims to create order in society, such as by fighting against evil, then in the end, it is the police who will determine what is concretely called ordering, who should be subdued, who should be protected and so on

Indian writers, over the years in their books, have addressed or touched upon issues regarding the powerful and consistent rise of the west and their influence on shaping global politics, colonialism and its impact on the existing socio-political structure of India and much more that has a sense of history attached to it. Very few have the knack of tossing up mild sarcasms and puns that depicts the rhetoric of the subaltern voices of the country. Aravind Adiga is a master at it. He throws in dark humor or sarcasms in his novels and touches upon the existing problems of contemporary India and urges the people to seek answers for it. Such is the attribute of him who constantly seeks for a positive change in India’s social structure that has deep-rooted social evils. He addresses problems relative to globalization, consumerism, the rise of materialism and the social evils prevalent in modern society and a few more which has the potential to alter the contemporary human psyche. The paper examines the works of Aravind Adiga and sheds light on how he projects contemporary India and its citizens and what are the social evils he has tried to address.

This study examines the management accounting reporting practices based on the management accounting guidelines among the enterprises in China. Using questionnaire survey on the enterprises in China in the province of Xian, the results show that the level of management accounting reporting practices among the Chinese enterprises is still low and not in accordance with the requirements of the application guidelines. The results also show that half of the enterprises failed to comply with the requirements of the guidelines, an indication that in the process of practice, there are inconsistencies between theoretical understanding and practical practice. However, most enterprises have a positive attitude towards the preparation of management accounting reports and agreed with the importance and significance of the preparation of reports mentioned in the practices guidelines. In addition, this study also shows that the enterprises that prepared the management accounting report adhere to the requirements of the guidelines. Specifically, the number of enterprises preparing operation management accounting reports is the largest, while the number of enterprises preparing strategic reports is the smallest. The findings in this study implicate that enterprises that have not prepared the management accounting report should pay more attention to management accounting reporting. This study sheds some lights to the policy makers on the level of management accounting reporting practices and instils awareness to enterprises on the importance of preparing such reports by giving guidance and assistance after issuance of guidelines.

This article describes a sophisticated method for detection of Heart valve defects at early stage i.e Grade 1 murmur without the expertise of a doctor. The diagnosis based on heard heart sounds through, either a conventional acoustic or an electronic stethoscope is itself a very specialized skill that will take years to acquire. Sometimes the doctors cannot detect these defects till the murmurs reach grade 3 and above which generally is too late for prognosis. Here, we have taken the recorded heart sounds from 350 subjects and performed the Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) on it, but it didn’t give satisfying result. We have also recoded heart sounds using phonograph for 20 subjects in noise free environment. In this technique Frequency component with the maximum magnitude (in Hertz) was observed to be of varying values across some heart sounds (for e.g., heart sound from subject 41=13.0588Hz and heart sound from subject 58=324.5293Hz). Hence normal heart sounds could not be categorized in a generic way. To overcome this problem, we have used Shannon energy method on same data file, which will classify the condition of heart by finding S1(lub) and S2(dub) frequency component, if they lie between 30-100Hz, the heart is normal and if it is above 100Hz then the heart function is abnormal..

Open source software are adopted as embedded systems, server usage because of quick delivery, cost reduction and standardization of systems. Many open source software are developed under the peculiar development style known as bazaar method. According to this method, faults are detected and fixed by developers around the world, and the fixed result will be reflected in the next release. Also, the fix time of faults tends to be shorter as the development of open source software progresses. However, several large-scale open source projects have a problem that faults fixing takes a lot of time because the faults corrector cannot handle many faults reports quickly. In this paper, we aim to identify the fix priority of newly registered faults in the bug tracking system by using random forest, and we make an index to detect the faults that require high fix priority and long fault fixing time when faults are reported in specific version of open source project. The index is derived and identified by using open source project data obtained from bug tracking system. In addition, we try to improve the detection accuracy of the proposed index by learning not only the specific version but also the fault report data of the past version by using random forest considering the characteristic similarities of faults fix among different versions. As a result, the detection accuracy has highly improved comparing with using only specific version data and using logistic regression.

Image de-noising forms a crucial component of digital image processing. The state-of-the-art vector median filtering based image de-noising approaches like the median filtering, the vector median filtering and the basic vector directional filtering and their extensions process the vector pixels jointly in the red, green and blue components. Consequently any smoothing applied therein is leveraged on all the color components equally. In this paper we propose that processing the vectors in isolation, that is, each color component taken separately, and then smoothed by minimising the aggregate distance between the pixels in each color component will lead to more efficient de-noising of noisy images. We demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method compared against vector filtering approaches using several images and test measures.

The strength of a nation’s economy depends upon the system of taxation which If taken correct approaches, can keeps revenue consistent, stimulates industrial activity and manages growth in our economy. The Indian government has made an ambitious shift by introducing Goods and Services Tax (GST) tax policies. The strategy is to present modern, transparent and technology-driven indirect tax system. The new tax system aimed to sharpen the competitive edge of a 230 crores ($2.3 Trillian) Indian economy driven by internal trade restrictions and a raft of central, state and local taxes. After two years of its introduction, the new system is yet to settle down and being considered puzzling on many dimensions. Even after proper beginning, the GST registration system is facing barriers relevant to documentation, technology, stakeholder willingness, etc. This paper aimed to rank the potential impediments to GST registration of restaurants in Hyderabad. The outcome of this paper will help new registration seeks to understand new taxes system in general and will intimate the ground reality to authorities responsible for its successful implementation. This paper presents a case study of the issues faced by the restaurants in Hyderabad during GST registration in these two years of implementation. Solutions to these issues have been proposed in this paper, which may be helpful for the new entrepreneurs to register on GST portal.

This paper tries to disentangle the causes of conflicts of interests between the proponent and the opposition factions on the implementation policy of the provincial government. We also explain the impact of the provincial government policy to close the business operation of the Alexis Hotel after the period of conflicts of interest. In this research, we use Pfetsch’s theory on public policy, as well as Steinberger’s and Sartori’s theory on conflict to explore the sources and forms of conflict of interest between the executive government, the parliament, and the interest groups. Through qualitative method with a typical case study, we find that the emergence of the provincial government policy to shut down the operation of Alexis Hotel can occur in the form of the campaign promises, the moral preferences, the supports from the element of society, and the applicable regulations. Such policy gives a substantial impact on law and order, popularity, and the management of other cases.

Energy management system is one of the challenging tasks associated with residential buildings. The cost of energy is purely based on the amount of energy consumed during peak hours. This paper focuses on an efficient energy management system for the control of energy consumption during peak hours. ZigBee module is used to monitor the energy consumed by the home appliances. The working of the proposed system is categorized into two modes of operation: normal time and peak time. During normal time, all home appliances can be operated and the cost of energy will be at normal rate. Whereas, during peak time, high rating machines will be shut down, that is controlled by ZigBee and the light loads will be operated from battery supply. Thus the proposed system reduces the energy consumption and is cost effective. Simulation analysis is done using proteus software. Hardware model is also implemented which proves that the proposed energy management system improves the energy efficiency.

The development of agriculture over the past 100 years has often led and leads to a deterioration of the natural environment, and intensive nature management turns into the destruction of nature, the fundamental basis for the development of agricultural economics. Powerful tractors, multi-tonnage harvesting and transport vehicles compact the soil, as a result of which it loses its natural fertility. Plowing the soil, aiming at moving the seeds of weed plants into the deep layers to weaken their competition with the seeds of cultivated plants, planted relatively close to the field surface, often leads to easy deflection of the upper layer, dust storms. In the United States and Canada, this phenomenon was observed in the mid 30s. last century, in other countries - in the middle of the twentieth century. In Russia, dust storms occurred in the 60s. after plowing virgin and fallow lands.

Gaining customer loyalty is perplexing feature in ebanking services. The influencers of loyalty are identified as customer satisfaction, benefits, challenges and trust. Descriptive research design is followed Pearson’s correlation and linear regressions are used for analysing the relationship between the variable. The finding of the study, benefits the customer faces results in customer satisfaction and enriches loyalty. On the other hand, challenges a customer faces affects the level of satisfaction and reduces loyalty. Trust of the customer is found to have no substantial impact on loyalty.

Hydraulic jump type II stilling basin is generally preferred as an energy dissipator for ogee spillway but it is uneconomical due to longer structure. On the other hand, roller bucket uses relatively shorter structure over a sloping apron or horizontal stilling basin. In this study, an attempt has been made to evaluate the performance of an ogee profile stepped spillway in combination with solid roller bucket and stilling basin type II for energy dissipation. Laboratory experiments are performed on a physical working model of ogee profile stepped spillway at discharge ranging from 0.0032 to 0.0069 m3/s for a head of 1.5m, 4m & 7m and the results compared for energy dissipation (non-dimensional parameter (yc / h) = 0.69). The model results show that stepped spillway model without v-notch achieves 92.40 % energy dissipation. Thus this model is found to be more suitable to acquire the ideal condition of sequent depth and tail water depth in stilling basin for all the discharges.

In current conditions, the staff is considered as the leading resource of the organization. The theory that defines personnel as costs, which, above all, should be reduced, has been replaced by the theory of human resource management. Under this theory, the staff is one of the primary resources of the organization that must be properly managed, create optimal conditions for its development, and invest the necessary funds in this. The problem of selecting personnel for a position belongs to the category of loosely structured tasks that traditionally boil down to decision making. That is why the challenge of improving the algorithms and procedures for decision support in the field of personnel management is very relevant in the modern world. The article substantiates the need to use intelligent technologies to support decision-making in human resource management tasks. The specific features of the personnel selection problem are highlighted, immersing the latter in a fuzzy environment. A multi-scenario approach is described for solving the problem of hiring, which takes into account the importance and ambiguity of indicators characterizing applicants for the position, as well as the nature of the requirements of employers.

This research studies about the jargon used in “PCWorld” magazine. The research questions of this study are: 1) How are morphological processes used in creating jargons in the “PC World” magazine in January 2015 edition? 2) What are contextual meanings of jargons used in the “PC World” magazine in January 2015 edition? The aims of the study are to analyze the morphological process in creating computer jargon, to explain the contextual meaning of each jargon used in “PC World” magazine. In this research, the writer used descriptive qualitative research that made use of documentation to analyze the written jargons. The result of the study shows that: (1) The morphological process in creating computer jargon used in “PC World” magazine are acronym is a word formed from the initial letters of a name or combining initial letters of a series of words. It has 3 morphemes (13 jargons), clipping is a process of new words by shortening the polysyllabic word or by deleting one or more syllables (1 Jargon), multiple process is a process of a word formation when a word is formed through more than one process (1 jargon). compounding is a process of a word formation in which it is done by combining two words (15 jargons) and backformation is a process that creates a new word by removing a real or supposed affix from another word in the language (10 jargons). (2) Reveal with the lexical and contextual meaning, the writer found that (21) of jargons in the contextual meaning is higher than (4) jargons of the lexical meaning, the contextual meaning of jargons is more than with the lexical meaning and (15) words of jargon do not have any the lexical meaning.
