Object Detection Model: An Enhanced SSD
Authors: Sharma Aman Kumar
Published: May 2024

Abstract: Object Detection plays a significant role in today’s era. Object detection plays a crucial role in various applications such as surveillance, medical images, and autonomous vehicles. The primary goal of object detection is to accurately detect the boundaries of objects of interest and classify those objects into predefined categories. In this research paper, we enhanced an object detection technique i.e. Single shot multibox detector (SSD) which is one of the top object detection technique in both aspect accuracy and speed. SSD is an object detection model that predicts object bounding boxes and class probabilities in a single forward pass. It uses multiple feature maps at different scales to cater to various object sizes and aspect ratios.The main contribution of this research is to enhance the accuracy, recall time, precision time and mean average time (mAP). The performance of this object detection technique is improved as the number of feature maps is increases, improved backbone, and enhanced activation functions, additional layers for enhanced detection and loss function modifications. An accuracy of 0.75 indicates that the model correctly predicts the class label for approximately 75% of all objects in the dataset. The enhanced model showed these results: a precision score of 0.75 implies that 75% of the objects identified by the model as positive (detected objects) are indeed true positives. A recall of 0.73 indicates that the model successfully identifies and detects 73% of all positive instances in the dataset. A mAP of 75.25 signifies the average precision across all classes, computed at different IOU thresholds (e.g., 0.5, 0.75).

Avionics System Design using MBSE Methodology
Authors: Rahaman Aryan , Sharma Abhinav
Published: May 2024

Abstract: The West Air Sweden Flight 294 serves as a reminder of tragic crashes of aircraftdue to Avionics System failure. Due to malfunction of the Inertial Reference Unit (IRU), the aircraft lost its control resulting in tragic loss of life of the peopleon board. The Avionics System is a complex set of instruments, logical and physical links which must comply with the guidelines of Dob178c. The design of the system is complicated. This paper aims to understand the behavior of the Avionics System using the state-of-the-art Model Based System Engineering (MBSE) technology. This includes the two widely used tools – Capella and Simulink. We aim to understand the dynamic nature of avionics through these tools. Model Based System Engineering can be specifically beneficial because it will help the engineers to detect the flaws in the avionics system much earlier. This will potentially contribute to helping to prevent aircraft crashes due to avionics system failure. The idea of model-based system engineering includes the concept of taking a model as a reference to systematically solve the complex designs of any engineering stage. Before the concept of Model Based Systems Engineering came to be, Documents Based Systems Engineering was the trend in the system engineering department. However, it would take a lot of time, effort and accuracy to correctly pinpoint the information and accordingly design the system from a bunch of documents. MBSE, however, eases such kind of trouble by providing a model as a reference for the systems design

Enhanced Construction Productivity by Effective Equipment Management through Fleet Operations
Authors: Sakhare Mr. Vishal D.
Published: May 2024

Abstract: In construction equipment management, achieving optimum utilization is essential for cost reduction and ensuring efficient completion of tasks. Equipment fleets, which comprise various machines working together, are central to this goal. For instance, tasks like loading, hauling, and compaction often require coordination between an excavator, multiple haul units, and auxiliary machines. These interconnected systems form the backbone of construction projects, with each component contributing to overall productivity. Take, for example, an excavator and a fleet of trucks; they operate as a linked system where the performance of one directly impacts the efficiency of the others. Therefore, effective management involves not only maximizing the efficiency of individual machines but also coordinating their operations to minimize downtime and optimize production. By understanding the interdependence of equipment and implementing strategies to enhance their performance collectively, construction projects can achieve greater efficiency and cost-effectiveness

Authors: Shaikh Prof. Ms. N.N.
Published: May 2024

Abstract: The project is designed to develop a four quadrant speed control system for a DC motor. The motor is operated in four quadrants i.e. clockwise; counter clock-wise, forward brake and reverse brake. It also has a feature of speed control. The four quadrant operation of the dc motor is best suited for industries where motors are used and as per requirement as they can rotate in clockwise, counter-clockwise and also apply brakes immediately in both the directions. In case of a specific operation in industrial environment, the motor needs to be stopped immediately. In such scenario, this proposed system is very apt as forward brake and reverse brake are its integral features. Instantaneous brake in both the directions happens as a result of applying a reverse voltage across the running motor for a brief period and the speed control of the motor can be achieved with the PWM pulses generated by the microcontroller. The microcontroller used in this project is from 8051 family. Remote operation is achieved by any smart-phone/Tablet etc., with Android OS, upon a GUI (Graphical User Interface) based touch screen operation. Bluetooth device is provided to connect with android application device for the operation of the motor which are interfaced to the microcontroller that provides an input signal to it and in turn controls the speed of the motor through a motor driver IC. This project can be enhanced by using higher power electronic devices to operate high capacity DC motors. Regenerative braking for optimizing the power consumption can also be incorporated

Maqashid Sunnah as a Philosophical Foundation for Developing Progressive Islamic Education in the Digital Era
Authors: Masyhari Mohammad Ridlo , Bin Jamil Khairil Husaini
Published: May 2024

This article aims to look at the philosophy of Islamic education from the perspective of maqashid sunnah (the ultimate purpose of hadith) in the social sphere to produce progressive Islamic education in the digital era. The digital era is characterized by a very wide openness of information, causing competition in this era to be very tight, so competitive and productive human qualities are needed, and this can be produced from a progressive pattern of Islamic education. Unfortunately, Islamic education as an instrument for human development, currently focuses more on developing each student to achieve high skills and qualifications. Still, on the other hand, it can be seen that the output of this is humans who focus more on profits for themselves. It does not have much influence on people's lives, even though progress in its true meaning should be oriented towards the benefits of the wider community. For this reason, studies are needed to examine the philosophical basis of education to find solutions to the problems above. As a source of Islamic teachings, Hadith has a core purpose, maqashid sunnah. Among several maqasid sunnah, there is maqoshid riayat-al-Mujtama' or the aim of developing society, which contains values that lead to the development of society. This study will use a qualitative methodology by analyzing the values contained in the maqashid riayat-al-Mujtama and then bringing them into education to find their suitability as a basis for Progressive Islamic Education. The conclusion of this study is that maqosid riayat-al-mujtama, which contains social values in the form of freedom, helping each other in goodness, justice, equality, mutual love, and care, can be used as a philosophical basis for progressive Islamic education.

Published: May 2024

The rapidly growing number of children is a demographic boon for Indonesia. There is positive potential with this number. However, there are also threats amidst the onslaught of several hedonic cultures and the unpredictable era of disruption. The potential for zakat in Indonesia is increasing, but the realization rate is still small. Therefore, effective early education is needed to encourage children's understanding of the importance of the character of generosity. The Quran emphasizes the obligation of zakat. In addition, these verses have a revelation from obligatory to sunnah. This research aims to examine the correlation of Quranic verses for Islamic philanthropy awareness, which include zakat, infaq, and sadaqah as a medium for instilling the character of generosity in children; 1) How is the leveling of Quranic verses about islamic philanthropy? 2) How do we recommend children for zakat, infaq and sadaqah? This research uses a descriptive qualitative method with a thematic approach. It is hoped that there will be a conceptual model for cultivating the character of generosity in children to prepare them to become contributive individuals who can build progress and welfare for the nation.

Inflammation-, thrombosis- and autoimmune-feedback loops may lead to persistent neutrophil self-stimulation in long COVID
Authors: Thierry Alain R. , Salmon Dominique
Published: May 2024

Understanding the pathophysiology of long COVID is one of the most
intriguing challenges confronting contemporary medicine.. Despite
observations recently made in the relevant molecular, cellular and
physiological domains, it is still difficult to say whether the
post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 correspond to the causes or the
consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection. This work hypothesizes that
neutrophils and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETS) production are at
the interconnection of three positive feedback loops which are initiated
in the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and which involve
inflammation, immunothrombosis and autoimmunity. This phenomenon could
be favored by the fact that SARS-CoV-2 may directly bind and penetrate
neutrophils. The ensuing strong neutrophil stimulation leads to a
progressive amplification of an exacerbated and uncontrolled NETs
production, potentially persisting for months beyond the acute phase of
infection. This continuous self-stimulation of neutrophils leads in turn
to systemic inflammation, micro-thromboses, and the production of
autoantibodies, whose significant consequences include the persistence
of endothelial and multi-organ damage, and vascular complications.
Resilience analysis of different banking business models in COVID-19 pandemic; Evidence from Iran
Authors: Aghajnai Sepideh , Samizadeh Reza
Published: May 2024

The recent COVID-19 pandemic, which had a significant impact on
businesses in 2020 and 2021, highlighted the issue of analyzing the
financial performance of banks in times of crisis. Practical experience
has shown that banks with higher resilience perform better in different
crises. This paper studies different banking business models and
examines their resilience. In this way, by analyzing the banks’
resilience variables, their situation for different types of banking
business models is examined. Resilience in banks will be considered
through the control of risky assets and deposits, leverage rate, capital
adequacy, liquidity coverage ratio, net stable funding ratio, and
diversification. Through examining the data of 33 Iranian banks and
analyzing their different business models in a soft clustering method,
it was found that the resilience of merchandise-oriented banks has been

investment and increasing the variety of loans would reduce the systemic
risk of the pandemic and its effect on other banks leading to an

Co-evolutionary adaptation of hookworms with their mammalian hosts has
selected for immunoregulatory excretory/secretory (E/S) products.
However, it is not known whether, or if so, how host immunological
status impacts the secreted profile of hematophagous adult worms. This
study interrogated the impact of host Signal and transducer of activator
of transcription 6 (STAT6) expression during experimental evolution of
hookworms through sequential passage of the life-cycle in either STAT6
deficient or WT C57BL/6 mice. Proteomic analysis of E/S products by
LC-MS showed increased abundance of 15 proteins, including myosin-3,
related to muscle function, and aconitate hydratase, related to iron
homeostasis. However, most E/S proteins (174 of 337 unique identities)
were decreased, including those in the Ancylostoma-secreted
protein (ASP) category, and metallopeptidases. Several identified
proteins are established immune-modulators such as fatty acid-binding
protein homolog, cystatin, and acetylcholinesterase. Enrichment analysis
of InterPro functional categories showed down-regulation of
Cysteine-rich secretory proteins, Antigen 5, and Pathogenesis-related 1
proteins (CAP), Astacin-like metallopeptidase, Glycoside hydrolase, and
Transthyretin-like protein groups in STAT6 KO adapted worms. Taken
together, these data indicate that in an environment lacking Type 2
immunity, hookworms alter their secretome by reducing immune evasion
proteins- and increasing locomotor- and feeding-associated proteins.
Two Roads Lead to Rome: Evaluating Two Forms of the Process–Person–Context–Time Model
Authors: Xia Mu , Yu Kun , Li Xueliu
Published: May 2024

There are two ways to organize factors in Bronfenbrenner’s
Process–Person–Context–Time (PPCT) model using quantitative data: a
latent growth curve model with a moderation variable and a mediation
model. This study’s objectives are to examine these ways, discuss
whether they meet some of the necessary criteria based on the definition
of the elements and the theory propositions, and consider the advantages
and disadvantages of each model. The analysis will help researchers to
decide which model to use in different situations.
Meeting national land use related objectives while safeguarding typical landscapes

Landscapes play a significant role in the regional development by providing ecosystem services to the local communities. Significant changes in land management due to the political decisions may significantly change the typical landscape in rural areas. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore how to use the landscape differences to facilitate achievement of national socio-economic and environmental objectives, while avoiding significant changes and safeguarding typical landscapes. Cluster analysis was used to identify relatively homogeneous groups with four socio-economic and environmental indicators, namely, profit, employment, net GHG emissions, habitat quality. Results show that clusters with the highest socio-economic return are located closest to the capital city and carbon sequestration measures may be concentrated in the landscapes that are geographically farthest from the capital city, but then the abandonment of rural areas and the disappearance of typical landscapes may occur. The political decisions related to land use change should be adapted to the specific landscape, so that not only socio-economic and environmental objectives are achieved together with the fulfilment of international obligations, but also the typical landscape of the specific landscape region is preserved.

BackgroundThe health visiting service in England leads the government's Healthy Child Programme (HCP) for children under five years. Local authorities and their provider partners deliver this service differently across England.
ObjectiveTo describe local authority variation in the delivery of health visiting to children under five years in England (2018-2020).
MethodsWe used publicly available statistics on mandated health visiting contacts, and administrative data from the Community Services Dataset (CSDS) on duration, location, and medium of contacts. We mapped population coverage of mandated contacts (new birth visit, 6-8-week review, one-year review, and 2-2½ -year review) and described the frequency and characteristics of mandated and additional contacts across local authorities.
ResultsBased on publicly available data, almost all eligible children received their new birth visit, 6-8-week review and one-year review (89%-99%), with substantial variation across local authorities in children receiving he 2-2½ -year review: median 81%, range 33%-98%. Based on CSDS, 80% of local authorities (n=46/57) delivered more additional than mandated contacts: a median of 1.6 additional contacts (range: 0.1-8.5) were delivered for each mandated contact. There was also significant variation in the duration of contacts and the percentage of contacts delivered face-to-face and at home.
ConclusionsDespite decreases in funding and workforce since 2015, in 2018--2020, health visiting teams reached nearly all babies and most children face-to-face via mandated contacts, and conducted over one and a half times the number of additional contacts relative to mandated contacts, with variation between local areas. This represents a significant public health infrastructure to support the health and development of babies and children and the wellbeing of their families in the critical period before school. Our study highlights the importance of taking into account additional contacts. Further work is needed to understand variation, including in the way additional contacts are used.
Self Care for Overcoming Sleep Disorders in Cancer Patients: Literature Review
Authors: Nurfitriani Putri , Gayatri Dewi
Published: May 2024

Cancer can cause pain, weakness, sleep problems, and fatigue, and affect functional limitations that affect daily life. One of the most common and frequently complained symptoms in cancer patients is sleep disturbance. This paper aims to determine the effect of self-care to overcome sleep disorders in cancer patients. The author uses several databases, such as Scopus, SpringerLink, and Sage Journal. Clinical Key Nursing for use in the search for relevant articles. There are a total of 8 articles have been analyzed where several self-care interventions are used to treat sleep disorders in cancer patients, including mindfulness, exercise, yoga, dance, and personal psychotherapy. most of them showed results in a decrease in sleep disturbances in cancer patients, but there was one article that did not show significant results related to sleep disturbances. All the articles found were forms of intervention from self-care. There are three articles related to insomnia, one related to sleep quality, and four others related to sleep disturbance. Based on several journals that have been analyzed, it can be concluded that the provision of self-care interventions can affect the incidence of sleep disorders in cancer patients. A practical and secure method, exemplified by self-care practices, seeks to enhance sleep quality, general comfort, and the patient's overall quality of life.

The elderly are a vulnerable group because they have experienced various setbacks. Degenerative disorders are physiological processes that occur in the elderly, one that often occurs is a decrease in the function of the musculoskeletal system such as complaints of joint pain, decreased muscle strength, and decreased balance which can cause the risk of falling. The management that can be done to prevent falls while minimizing side effects is by using non-pharmacological therapies, one of which is by doing the Otago Exercise. The purpose of this case study is to explain how the effect of Otago Exercise is to prevent the risk of falling in the elderly. The writing method used in this study is to use a case study conducted on the elderly Mrs. S. The results of nursing care after carrying out the Otago Exercise Program showed an increase in the risk of falling in the elderly from 32 to 39. This Otago Exercise has been proven to be effective and can be done to prevent the risk of falling in the. The elderly can implement the Otago Exercise Program on an ongoing basis accompanied by officers at the orphanage to prevent falls and maintain a balance so that joint function and posture remain good.
