Multi-exposure Image Fusion using Patchbased Component Decomposition
Authors: A Dharmika , Gnanapriya M
Published: December 2022

Multi exposure image fusion is always a challenge in task in image processing. The multiple images with the different image content, when mixed using a fusion formula generate different effects. One of the most prominent effects is ghosting effect. Ghost in effect occur even in capturing of images. The smallest ghosting effect may be treated as image blur. To handle ghosting effect as well as many other affects that are generated in the process of fusion are treated in the proposed technique. The proposal scheme introduces a completely new representation that may be explorer for the for many different applications. First the input images are decomposed into several patches. As the fusion involves multiple input images the special correlated patches
are further grouped into a class. Individual patches of the class are decomposed into three logical components named strength structure and intensity. These components are calculated for all the patches of the class. Now using the rule of fusion these logical components are derived for the whole class. The decomposition of a patch into logical components is unique as well as invertible hence using the generated components patches restored. Simulation results prove the superiority of the scheme proposed.
Medicine Systems used by Indian People – An Evaluation
Authors: Kareem A. Abdul , Yoganandham Dr. G.
Published: December 2022

Medicines are substances that are used to treat, identify, and prevent disease and illness. The ancient civilization of India fostered the growth of numerous medical systems. India offers both the allopathic medical system and the traditional Indian medical system. In addition to one type of allopathy, India has five distinct traditional medicinal systems in use: Siddha, Ayurveda, Unani, Homeopathy, and Naturopathy. In
developing countries, traditional medicine is becoming increasingly popular, especially in rural areas. Ayurveda, which translates as "the science of life," is a holistic medical strategy that emphasizes keeping one's body, mind, and spirit in good shape. The three doshas (constitutional types) are the basis of ayurvedic doctrine, and the patient's constitution is more heavily considered during diagnosis and treatment. Astrology and
incantation are also used in Siddha medicine. Tamil Nadu, India's most southern state, uses it the most commonly. In addition to mineral or metallic medications, adjuvants (like honey, ghee, milk, betel leaf juice, and hot water) are frequently administered. Clean air, food, water, physical movement and rest, psychological movement and rest, sleep and alertness, and the retention of beneficial materials and outflow of waste materials from the body are the six elements of illness prevention and health promotion. With origins in the Reformation, homoeopathy in Germany enjoyed a golden age in the 17th and 18th centuries. In 1995, the Department of Homeopathy and Indian Systems of Medicine was established. One of the objectives of the organization is to develop standards for Ayurvedic, Unani, Siddha, and homoeopathic medicines. Folk knowledge about the traditional application of herbal remedies is very prevalent in ethnic cultures. People become physically and psychologically weaker when they don't take their medication, which makes them more susceptible to contracting new ailments. In addition to allopathy, India has five additional traditional medical systems. Among these are Siddha, Ayurveda, Unani, Homeopathy, and Naturopathy.

The special characteristics of MANETs are that it communicates in the infrastructure less environment with high mobility and speed. Due to the nature the stability of the network is reduced and it results in the increase of the energy consumption, delay and routing overhead during communication. In order to overcome this drawbacks unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) introduced in MANETs. So that the transmission is performed it an air medium so that the devices are protected from the ground level obstacles. In recent days UAVs are used for the transmission of highly confidential data such as military and medical applications. So that it is very essential to provide security for the devices present in the UAV-assisted MANET. For that purpose in this paper Ubiquitous Trust Management and Power Optimization (UTMPO-UAVs) are proposed and it consists of various segments such as UAVs network model, UAVs traffic model and UAVs trust model. The Trust model consists of both direct trust and indirect trust calculations. This method greatly helps to achieve high packet delivery ratio and efficiency in MANETs. The simulation is carried out in NS2 and the parameters which are used for the parameter analysis are packet delivery ratio, energy efficiency, end to end delay and routing overhead. The proposed UTMPO-UAVs approach is compared with the earlier methods such as STAP-UAV and ITCD-UAV. From outcome it is understood that the proposed approach achieves high delivery ratio and energy efficiency as well as lower end to end delay and routing overhead when compared with the earlier methods.

Warm mix asphalt use in Slovenia and in Europe: A review
Authors: Pavšič Primož
Published: December 2022

Recently, we have witnessed an extreme increase in the prices of energy and raw materials, on the one hand, and economic expansion, due to the business growth in construction sector, part of which is also the asphalt industry, on the other hand. The asphalt industry in particular is facing increasing challenges of economic acceptability and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as well as improving working conditions. One of the possible solutions proved to be warm mix asphalts (WMA), which can be produced and compacted at reduced temperatures in comparison to hot mix asphalt (HMA). The beginnings of WMA technology in Europe date back to 1999, while in Slovenia the first field test was conducted in 2005. In the last two decades a numerous research and studies on the properties and technologies of WMA production have been conducted. According to EAPA (European Asphalt Pavement Association), the use of WMA cumulatively in Europe in period from 2013 to 2020 is slowly increasing, but the differences in WMA production in individual European countries are significant. The article presents an overview of WMA production techniques, their advantages and disadvantages and their usage in individual European countries in comparison to Slovenia.
Characterization of harvest residues ashes and ceramic waste powders originating from Vojvodina as potential supplementary cementitious materials
Authors: Šupić Slobodan , Malešev Mirjana , Radonjanin Vlastimir , Pantić Vladan , Lukić Ivan
Published: December 2022

Traditionally, residential buildings in Vojvodina have masonry walls. Various types of mortar of mineral origin are most often used for joining masonry elements and finishing. The total amount of mortar for the construction of one building is not negligible. The estimated annual consumption of mortar in Vojvodina is about 198 thousand tons i.e. 27 thousand tons of cement and about 31.5 thousand tons of hydrated lime. It can easily be seen conventional mortars based on cement and lime are unacceptable in the light of environmental protection and sustainable development in the contemporary construction industry. Therefore, there is a need for research and development of new, alternative types of binders, based on locally available renewable and/or waste materials. The ceramic masonry elements and tiles industry generates ceramic waste during the production process. This waste, in powder form, could potentially be used as supplementary cementitious material (SCM). Biomass ash, generated by the combustion of harvest residues, as a renewable energy source, is another alternative to cement in modern building composites. This paper emphasizes the physical, chemical, and pozzolanic characteristics of the available agro-waste ashes and ceramic waste powder, originating from Vojvodina. The results indicate relatively high pozzolanicity of all tested ceramic powders and biomass ash based on cob corn, owing to their high fineness and reactive silica content. Furthermore, a catalogue of collected waste materials, illustrating basic data on the raw materials, processing method, landfilling, available quantities, and their tested properties is given.
Single-layer load-bearing tunnel lining structure in hard rock masses
Authors: Spasojević Srđan
Published: December 2022

The paper presents some of the observations made during tunnel construction with a single-layer load-bearing lining in hard rocks. The load-bearing elements of one such lining were observed, as were measures to improve the quality of the material, as well as other required actions to guarantee its stability throughout its lifespan. An extremely important measure is to limit the water inflow into the tunnel, by pressure grouting contemporary grout mixtures into the fractures, commonly referred to as pre-grouting. This paper also shows the construction time and cost of single-layer lining compared to the traditional two-layer lining. The construction expenses of single-layer tunnel lining are slightly lower compared to two-layer tunnel lining. Nevertheless, the main benefit is construction time-savings. The observations are presented using a practical example: a tunnel in the limestone rock near the Mratinja dam, between Plužine and Šćepan polje in Montenegro.

Authors: Shahzad Asjad , Abbas Muhammad
Published: December 2022

In recent times, there has been an increasing trend by organizations to focus on audits which help to find out their shortcomings and identify hidden opportunities. Technology audit is one significant example of audits being conducted in Pakistan. In this research, the benefits of the technology audit in the training institutes of Pakistan and its relationship with various technology capabilities are examined. The literature review developed a framework and revealed the positive and significant relationship of technology audit with specific technology capabilities. The top government sector organizations, such as WAPDA Engineering Academy, Faisalabad, and Regional Training Centre (Lahore & Faisalabad) were approached for responses to the questionnaire. For this study, a survey research methodology was adopted in the form of a questionnaire. 205 valid responses were used to analyse the data using Reliability analysis, Normality Tests, Correlation Matrix and Regression Analysis. The results revealed the potential benefits of technology audit, such as a better technology environment; improved knowledge about competitors; improved innovation; better quality and research; and improved technology creation, acquisition, exploitation, and protection. The tested and verified model filled to void in the literature of demonstrating the benefits of technology audit, and how this would allow the training institutes to identify the technical shortcomings in their organization leading to better technology capabilities. Moreover, as a practical contribution, macro and micro-level recommendations are made, supporting training institutes to improve overall organisation technology capabilities.

The topic of this paper are the values of the individual entrepreneurial orientation and the Theory of planned behavior dimensions, among freelancers in the Western Balkan countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro, and Serbia). The effects of four control variables: gender, age, education level, and previous entrepreneurial experience were also examined. Freelancers best perceive support for an entrepreneurial venture as well as their proactivity. Entrepreneurial intentions were assessed as the worst. The greatest impact on the observed dimensions occurs in the division of the sample into freelancers who have/do not have previous experience in entrepreneurship. As for the other control variables, statistically significant differences occur in only three other cases: dimensions RT - Risk-taking and PBC - Perceived behavioral control on the side of male freelancers, and dimension IN - Innovativeness on the side of younger freelancers. A comparison was made with a similar study, where the respondents were conventional employees. In general, freelancers have greater entrepreneurial intentions than conventional employees. Freelancers are more consistent in terms of entrepreneurial intentions: there are no differences in these intentions if the sample is divided according to the gender and age of freelancers. These results are discussed in the paper.

The research objective of the paper is to propose a model, based on the Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) methods, that facilitates a selection process of an adequate strategy directed to the development of e-commerce. For that aim, the Method based on the Removal Effects of Criteria (MEREC) is applied for defining the criteria weights. The recently proposed Comprehensive Distance Based Ranking (COBRA) method is used for the final assessment and ranking of the considered alternatives. The applicability of the proposed model is tested by using an example borrowed from the literature. Three alternative development strategies are assessed against five evaluation criteria. The final results proved the applicability and reliability of the proposed MCDM model.

Published: December 2022

Forecasting the parameters of the food market is a difficult task due to the volatility of demand, which depends on many factors. In this study, the authors attempted to implement a machine learning model based on multiple data on the food market. A boxed recurrent neural network was chosen as a prediction technique. The information basis was made up of data from 3,200 US cities for 2010-2012, reflecting characteristics that may be directly or indirectly related to the price of dairy products. The following models were used for data preprocessing, anomaly search, dimensionality reduction: AdaBoost, LogisticRegression, SVM. As a result of analytical actions, a neural network architecture has been formed for use in market forecasting: two competitive neural networks. First: 2 layers with Bidirectional GRU+Dropout. Second: 3 layers of LSTM+Dropout + Attention with skip-layers. Its use makes it possible to obtain a prediction model of the desired parameters with qualitative indicators of the validation sample - R^= 0.86. The applicability of the constructed machine learning model is considered on the example of classical agricultural production with the presentation of the stages of deployment of such a model at the enterprise level.

Nowadays businesses transform into the faster, less costly, more flexible, and qualified structure because of developing world economy and fierce competition environment with each passing day. Outsourcing as one of the most essential concepts related to strategic management is considered to meet all the aforementioned conditions. In fact, logistics enterprises composing the main theme of this study tend to the outsourcing like other businesses and prefer it to increase the competitive power and specialized in main area of activity. Despite outsourcing in logistics enterprises provide numerous opportunity and advantage, some risks and problems emerge in case of not achieving the desired accordance and coordination. In this context risks and problems caused by the outsourcing for enterprises operated in international logistics activities in Giresun province are determined and ranked via the q-rung orthopair fuzzy subjective weighting as one of the multi-criteria decision analysis approaches. According to the results, essential risks and problems caused by the outsourcing for logistics enterprises were found as "Loss of control over the outsourcing firm", "Inaccurate sales pitches", "Layoffs" and "Unfulfilled contract provisions" respectively.

The purpose of this study is to examine the synchronism between the US capital markets (DJ, S&P 500), the United Kingdom (FTSE 100), Canada (S&P/TSX), Germany (DAX 30), France (CAC 40), Japan (Nikkei 225), Italy (Italy Ds Market and major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), Ethereum (ETH), and the Crypto 10 index, from February 2018 to November 2021. Based on the findings, we found that BTC and ETH cryptocurrencies drastically reduced their level of integration with their peers over the 2020 worldwide pandemic era, whereas LTC maintained. We also discovered that the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and DAX 30 stock indexes lowered their level of integration when compared to the pre-covid subperiod. For the UK capital market (FTSE 100), Canada (S&P/TSX), Japan (Nikkei 225), France (CAC 40), and Italy (Italy Ds Market) the level of integration increased significantly. These findings support, in part, our research question, that during periods of stress and uncertainty in the global economy capital markets tend towards integration, thus calling into question the hypothesis of efficient portfolio diversification.

The aim of the research is to determine the state and tendencies in the movement of production parameters of wheat and corn in Serbia for the period from 2005-2020. Analyzed parameters are harvested area, yield and total production. Descriptive statistics were used to determine the state and tendencies of the observed features. In order to predict the value of production parameters from 2021 to 2023, two methods were used: ARIMA model and extrapolation of the average rate of change of the analyzed parameters. Since the ARIMA model did not give satisfactory results due to a short time series (16 years), annual rates of change were used to extrapolate the production characteristics for the period 2021-2023. Using extrapolation of the average rate of change, the authors concluded that the yield of corn and wheat in the analyzed period showed a tendency to grow, with the areas of both crops showing a tendency to fall. Total wheat and corn production have a tendency to grow when compared with the averages of the analyzed period in previous years. The results of the forecast indicate that the volume of wheat production is expected to be 15.54% higher, and the volume of corn 28.41%, during the prediction period in relation to the multi-year averages of the analyzed period.
