Authors: Madhi Mina , Ghaemi Farzad
Published: August 2022

Literary works, apart from the rhetorical value and artistic quality, sometimes create a large social wave in the target audience. This wave will be different at the culture level of society whether it's among specific audiences (other authors), or general audiences (community), or both and or the effects of the created literary stream.  This essay has been explored the same issue in one of the most famous works of Persian literature of the 17th century in India, Hamla -ie Haidari, the work of Bāzel Mashhadi (born in Delhi). The result of this essay is that the literary value of the text is not the primary factor in shaping a movement but it is the coincidence of the reception of a specific and general audience, and the accidents that sometimes intensifies this welcoming that cause a movement. Also, in the case of discussed work, the ideological developments of the Persian-speaking community since the Safavid era have been another factor contributing to the success of the work.

Two-stage network structure with undesirable outputs approach
Authors: Hashemi Seyed Farid , Khorsandi Hosna
Published: August 2022

Articles in which nonparametric data envelopment analysis (DEA) is applied to estimate the efficiency based on a network structure usually consider the desirable intermediary parts that are the first stage’s outputs to be used as the second stage’s inputs. In many real-life situations, the intermediary parameters include desirable and undesirable outputs. This issue has drawn much attention from DEA researchers in recent years. The main motivation for this application is weak disposability for modeling the networks with undesirable intermediary parts. Undesirable outputs have been investigated in this study in two forms, i.e., the final outputs or intermediary parameters. In both cases, the non-cooperative game theory is offered for evaluating the relative efficiency of the executive units. In 2008, a real case was explicated for 39 airports in Spain in applied analysis of the proposed approaches.

Image scene classification in the remotely sensed (RS) society is an interesting subject that aims to allocate land use / cover semantic information. A big amount of Convolutional neural classification models for RS images have been proposed by the authors due to the massive behaviour of CNNs in features extracted. Despite their impressive results, there are still opportunities for advancement. To begin, local characteristics are just as important as global ones in identifying RS images. The CNNs' hierarchical organizational structure and multidimensional suitable capabilities make them good at trying to capture spatial information [1]. It's not uncommon for the feature maps to be overlooked, moreover. First and foremost, the ranges among RS image pairs must be minimised or maximised in order to achieve satisfying classifier performance. Despite this, the importance of these focuses in classification tasks is undervalued. We propose a new CNN called focus high quality infrastructure (ACNet) depending on the Siamese network in the this paper to improve the robustness discussed previous section.  [3]To begin, the input data for ACNet are the picture groups achieved through spatial rotation as a result of the network's the double framework.

Authors: Gupta Vikash , Kori Mohan Lal
Published: August 2022

Four herbal drugs with the complete antidiabetic solution were selected based on documented properties. Poly-herbal combinations containing 50 % hydro-alcoholic extracts, having the most significant overall antidiabetic activity were selected and polyherbal uncoated tablet (PHUT) was developed. 500 mg PHUT were developed, by homogeneously mixing 250 mg/tablet, dried and finely powdered extracts of four herbs in the most effective ratio, i.e. H. sabdariffa (100): A. marmelos (50): F. religiosa (75): A. squamosa (25), with excipients (250 mg/tablet) by direct compression method. For formulation optimization, 3 different formulations were developed by using the same excipients in different ratios and were evaluated for good flow properties and good packing ability. After pre-compression studies, powdered blends were directly compressed and were evaluated using post-compression parameters. Developed PHUTs were dark reddish-brown and devoid of any rough surface. Post compression parameters showed that all parameters are within the limit for all PHUT formulations. Out of all, PHUT 3 showed a significant average disintegration time of 9.40 minutes; hence it was considered as an optimized formulation and was subjected to 3 months accelerated stability studies. Where no significant changes were observed, PHUT 3 was considered a standard formulation with a complete antidiabetic solution.

Fruit diseases are a major problem in the agricultural industry where losses in economic and production are occured. In the existing system, K-means clustering algorithm is used to find whether the fruit is infected or not. Due to low accuracy, it will take more time to show the exact result. In this project, an image processing approach is proposed for identifying apple fruit diseases based on Convolutional Neural Network(CNN).In CNN algorithm, fruit image details are taken by the existing packages in this work. However, it can take a few moments.So, this proposed system can be used to identify fruit diseases quickly and automatically.This proposed approach is composed of the following main steps: getting input image, Image Preprocessing, Identifying affected places, highlighting those affected places, Verifying training set, showing results.Few types of fruit diseases, namely bitter rot, sooty blotch, powdery mildew and fungus images were used for this approach.This approach was tested according to fruit disease type and its stages, such as fresh and affected. The algorithm was used for detecting the disease of the fruit. Images were provided for training, such as fresh apple images, fresh banana images, bitter rot images, sooty blotch images, powdery mildew images and fungus images.

Adverse weather has long been recognized as one of the major causes of motor vehicle crashes due to its negative impact on visibility and road surface. Automatic recognition of weather condition has important application value in traffic condition warning, automobile auxiliary driving, intelligent transportation system, and other aspects. Providing drivers with real- time weather information is therefore extremely important to ensure safe driving in adverse weather. Most of the Department of Transportations (DoTs) in the U.S. have installed roadside webcams mostly for operational awareness. This study leveraged these easily accessible data sources to develop affordable automatic road weather condition for vehicle guidance. The developed detection model is focused on four weather conditions; rainy, snowy, sunny and foggy. The main goal of the proposed work is to use two neural network models such as K-Nearest Neighbour and pre- trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models to achieve the classified tasks. The ResNet50 issued to train and test on the “Weather Dataset” and desirable recognition results are obtained. AlexNet, GoogleNet, ResNet50 and SqueezeNet has been compared .The Result has been achieved with ResNet50. ResNet50 is proposed as higher accuracy as compared to AlexNet, GoogleNet ,ResNet and SqueezeNet.

Traffic sign detection is one of the critical technologies in the field of intelligent transportation systems (ITS). The difficulty of traffic sign detection mainly lies in detecting small objects in a wide and complex traffic scene quickly and accurately.  To develop an efficient traffic sign detection and recognition that can detect and categorize traffic signal into different classes in real-time with the help of Deep Learning techniques. In this project, regard traffic sign detection as a region classification problem and propose a two-stage R- CNN-based approach to solve it.  To build a deep neural Network model that can classify traffic sign present in images into different categories. The training process takes predefined traffic signals and has them 'learn' into a model.  With this model, people are able to read and understand traffic signs which are a very important task for all autonomous vehicles. A visual traffic sign recognition system can be integrated into the automobile with the objective of detecting and recognizing all emerging traffic signs. In case the driver refuses to heed traffic signs, the system will trigger an alarm.

Technology has played an increasingly important role in all aspects of our lives, farming, which is heavily influenced by various environmental factors, has necessitated the development of new methods to improve crop yield. The existing GSM-based Automated Irrigation system is not as effective and has some drawbacks, so the proposed method aims to develop a more effective Smart Irrigation system. With the help of various sensor configurations, users have addressed the use of IoT technology to assist farmers in detecting significant environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, soil moisture, and water level. A water pump controls the flow of water by opening and closing the flow when a signal is sent through the Arduino controller. Drop by drop, water is delivered to the plant's roots by a rain gun, and when the moisture level returns to normal, the sensor detects it and sends a signal to the controller, which shuts down the water pump. Smart Farming using the Internet of Things (IoT) and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with their high sensor systems and output results are possibilities to enable more accurate, network, durable Smart Agricultural systems for better Soil health using IoT.
