Authors: Kovshov A.A. , Chashchin V.P.
Published: December 2019

The studies conducted in 2001 and 2010 included permanent residents of indigenous nationalities dwelling in the villages of Uelen and Kanchalan of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug. We assessed health risks from exposures to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), DDT insecticides, lead, and mercury according to Guidelines R 2.1.10.1920–04 and U.S. EPA methods; a health survey was also conducted based on questionnaires. Health risks posed by ingestion of PCBs were mainly related to consumption of traditional foodstuffs contributing 84 % to the risk profile. Secondary contamination of food products from indoor surfaces accounted for 56 % of DDT-related health risks. For people of traditional occupations (hunters, fishermen, and reindeer herders) the risks of adverse health effects of PCBs were 5 times higher than for those of other occupations. Low income of the local population, high consumption of sea animal fat, alcohol abuse and ignorance of preventive measures resulted in 5–14 times increase in health risks posed by PCB exposures. Low socioeconomic status may significantly modify the health risks caused by bioaccumulation of persistent contaminants and heavy metals, its maximum impact being observed in the coastal areas of Chukotka and mainly in relation to PCBs. For the residents of Uelen, the predicted carcinogenic risk (up to 1.0 × 10–3) should be considered unacceptable.

Published: December 2019

The urgency of the problem of hepatitis B is related to its significant economic damage, epidemiologic, medical and social significance, widespread infection, severity, high frequency of adverse outcomes, and active involvement of working-age people in the epidemic process. The objective was to assess population immunity to hepatitis B virus among citizens of the european part of Russia (based on the example of the Nizhny Novgorod Region) in the context of planned vaccination. We analyzed disease incidence and vaccination of the population using official statistics and laboratory test results. The prevalence of serological markers of hepatitis B (anti-HBs, anti-HBcor IgG) among the conditionally healthy population aged 1–55 was determined by enzyme immunoassay. Epidemiologic efficiency of mass vaccination against hepatitis B in the population of the Nizhny Novgorod Region was established: the absence of officially registered cases of acute hepatitis B among children aged 0–14 since 2013, as well as a significant reduction in the incidence rates in the adult population from 52.2 0/0000 in 2000 to 1.30/0000 in 2018. An inverse correlation dependence of the average power between the incidence rates of the AHB and the vaccination coverage of children and adults was established. The article presents the results of studying duration and intensity of post-vaccination immunity to the hepatitis B virus in the population of the Nizhny Novgorod Region in 2000–2018. Serological monitoring allows evaluation of efficacy of vaccination and the level of specific population immunity to the hepatitis B virus, which, in its turn, contributes to timely management decisions about the need and timing of booster immunization of specific categories of the population.

The purpose of this project is to develop a prototype device for the Rehabilitation of Patients with Severe Motor Disorder (paralytic patients). There has been a constant need for the development of non-invasive electrical stimulation of the spinal cord using brain impulse. As of now, physiotherapy is the only method of treatment where the patients can regain their movement to some extent along with some intake of medicines or drugs to strengthen their nerves. In some cases brain implants and surgery are also used. Physiotherapy requires a lot of effort from the patients and it is very painful. In this project, I have developed a non-invasive electrical stimulator prototype that could make the limbs to move by collecting the impulses from the brain. This could be done in two ways. One is by Human Thinking and the other is with the help of Bluetooth. In the first method, EEG sensor has been used to detect the impulse of brain. This sensor collects the impulse from the brain and converts into electrical stimulation making the corresponding limb motor move as per the instruction given by the brain. In the second method, a third person can also operate this device using Bluetooth of his/her mobile to make the limb motor move. Thereby, limb movements of the humanoid model can be activated.

The rapid day-by-day growth of urbanization significantly increases the burden on utility grid that leads to frequent grid failures. So, Renewable Energy Sources (RES) based local power supply systems, called microgrids, are evolved to augment the utility grid supply. However, these microgrids possess uncertain power generation capacity due to the dependency on variable and uncertain environmental conditions. Thus, the grid failures continued due to unreliable operation of the microgrids. So, as a solution to enhance the reliability of microgrids, this paper suggests an integration of multiple microgrids in an urban locality, which are built by different RES and form a local integrated grid, called “minigrid”. This is further motivated by the present scenario of urban buildings, where most of the cases, the heterogeneous load natured buildings are grouped together in an urban neighborhood, thereby, facilitating resource sharing. This collective operation of multiple microgrids share the generators across all of their loads, thereby manages the power requirement in the locality itself instead of depending on the utility grid. With this view, this paper discusses the development of urban community minigrid, which is formed by integrating different categories of buildings, where each building is associated with its microgrid. This proposed minigrid scheme enhances the power supply reliability by enabling power-sharing among the buildings; as a consequence, it reduces the burden on utility grid. Further, this minigrid enables power import or export to the utility grid during deficit or excess local power generation conditions.

The most natural, influential and powerful way to communicate or convey a message is face expressions. In the field of computer engineering, facial expression recognition system, is helpful in areas like healthcare system, computer graphics, biometric devices, mobile phones, etc. Technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) make use of facial expression recognition to implement a natural, friendly communication with humans. In this paper an approach for Facial Expression Recognition using Ensemble Learning Technique has been proposed. Ensemble methods use various learning algorithms to obtain good predictive performance that could be obtained from any of the basic learning algorithms alone. In the proposed method, initially the features are extracted from static images using color histograms. This process is done for all images gathered in the training dataset. The ensemble technique is then applied on the featured dataset in order to categorize a given image into one of the six emotions, happy, sad, fear, angry, disgust, and surprise. A satisfactory result has been obtained using static image dataset taken from kaggle and uci machine learning repository.

Lung cancer is one of the dreaded diseases. Early detection is highly recommended to save the lives of the people. If the early detection is focused, we can reduce the mortality rate and increase the life expectancy accuracy 13% of the all new cancer diagnosis and 24% of all cancer deaths. There are various methods to detect the lung cancer from x-rays and CT images but the CT images are preferred. The medical images are always preferred to get better results on the same disease. The proposed method here will discuss about how the Watershed segmentation can be applied to the pre-processing of CT scans. The results are used for the deep learning methods so as to get the more accuracy from more image scans. The results are then used for the verification by the medical examiner for the validity of the results. The major pre-processing is done by using Median Filter, Gabor Filter and Watershed segmentation. In this research work we will discuss how the image manipulation can be done to achieve better results from the CT images through various image processing methods. The construction of the proposed method will include smoothing of the images with median filters, enhancement of the image and finally segmentation of the images.

A compensation method for mitigation of voltage related power quality problems with the use of Series Voltage Regulator well known as Series Active Power Filter or Dynamic Voltage Restorer is presented in this paper. The classical control algorithm used for series voltage regulator based on the Park transformation is modified by introducing a Selective Harmonic Filter at detection stage of source current in order to compensate harmonic frequencies which mainly affect power frequency voltages. The significant outcomes are sag restoration, reduction of total harmonic distortion and removal of transients from the supply voltage. Thus it makes possible to improve performance of series voltage controller as power conditioner to mitigate various voltage related power quality issues. The proposed approach is cost effective because same series voltage controller can be used as power conditioner by modifying control strategy used. Also it is possible to eliminate use of PI controller from control circuitry. The usefulness and robustness of the proposed mitigation strategy is confirmed by simulation studies. The presented series voltage controller has ability to mitigate the power quality issues arising due to charging of electric vehicles.

Using discrete wavelet transform, the segmented images are classified by Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifiers to classify the Glaucoma images.The proposed Support Vector Machine classifier is used to extract the information rely on the Region of Interest (ROI) from original retinal fundus image. Thus the classification result are used to find the normal and abnormal image and also to compute the normal and abnormal accuracies.We observed an accuracy of around 93% using data set by SVM classifier.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of drying duration of Sabah Snake Grass (Clinachantus Nutans) botanical drinks on sensory properties, total phenolic content (TPC) and free radical scavenging activity (FRSA). Three types of drinks samples were produced using a Sabah Snake Grass leaves which dried by oven method at temperature 45oC for 2 days for Formulation 1 (F1), 5 days for Formulation 2 (F2) and without drying (FS). Sensory analysis is performed to determine the level of panel acceptance of attribute such as color, taste, aroma and overall acceptance of Sabah Snake Grass drinks. Next, all samples were analyzed to determine total phenolic content and antioxidant effect via 2, 2-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazil (DPPH) scavenging activity. For sensory analysis, F2 resulted highest acceptance level by panelist compared to F1 and FS for all attributes and overall acceptance. Based on the result, F2 also showed highest total phenolic content (0.78 ppm) and highest percentage of inhibition compared to other samples. The results showed drying process could increase the acceptance level of panelist, phenolic content and scavenging activity of the Sabah Snake Grass drinks.

Image Steganography isa method of concealment secret information, by embedding it into a video, image. It is one in every of the methods employed to protect secret or sensitive information from malicious attacks. Here we are consider secure image data transmission through secure nano-scale communication circuit, Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA), could be a new paradigm that replaces CMOS circuits by victimization the charge configuration. QCA is used to design the modern digital circuits at the Nanoscale. Thus, using QCA to implement the proposed design reduces 28.33% of area compared with CMOS implementation. When we consider the features of QCA nanotechnology, it performs well low power dissipation and nano scale size at high frequency is exploring as a emerging technology to replace CMOS based systems. The technology behind the QCA Feynman, Toffoli, and Fredkin universal reversible logic gates circuits in the base are implemented and analyzed. In order to optimize the design QCA technology extend up to 5-input majority gates and use a F-Gate. We are proposed reversible XOR gate like Feynman gate as an Encoder/Decoder circuit. Further consider the benifits of QCA the proposed circuit is encoder circuit is also used for reverse computing to encode the data and to use the LSB technique in the image pixels for secure nano communication circuit. We estimated the area and latency of the QCA circuit

Due to data spread across various heterogeneous data stores, information retrieval in Enterprise data stores is always challenging compared to web based retrieval systems. We have proposed a collaborative fusion based information retrieval in [1] using the observation on similar users tends to prefer similar search results. The solution applied three dimensions of user similarity, document similarity and user to documents affinity to a collaborative information fusion based retrieval. The work also proposed active feedback based search result revision to get highly relevant results. But the work did not have any provision for personalization and could not handle the cold start problems. Without consideration for cold start problems, the user to document affinity cannot be modeled accurately as the result, the collaborative fusion process is affected. In this work, we improve our earlier solution of collaborative fusion based information retrieval with consideration for user personalization and solution for cold start problems. The solution is based on query refinement using the information hidden in enterprise messaging systems. A user profile is built as vector of concepts using the information in enterprise messaging systems and this user profile concept vector is used to refine the query in way to personalize the results and avoid cold start problems. Compared to approach in [1], the proposed query refinement based personalization is able to increase the relevancy accuracy by 10% as obtained from experimental results.

Underwater remote communication can beuseful for submerged condition observation, Communication between the boats, vessel sinking investigation, and research and so on. In any case, unliketerrestrial remote correspondence, submerged wirelesscommunication ought to consider factors like, long propagationdelay, constrained and unconstrained transmission limit, error rate due to external and internal influence, flow control, throughput, performance attenuation etc., by virtue of the characteristic properties of water. Along these lines, in this, we propose a proper protocol that applies to correspondence in underwater conditions.We additionally check performance issues in theproposed system.This paper depicts Region Attentive NeighborRouting (RANR), improvised version of the dynamic source routing (DSR) and aintegration of PURE ALOHA protocol with handshaking MAC protocol. The proposedprotocol is required as a result of the interesting challenges ofunderwater data delivery or communication: radio links doesn't effects in the water, and the acoustic links that are utilized rather have a lot of lower information rates and greater delay. RANR describes how a proposed protocol performs better than the existing protocols.
