Bio-signal processing is a widely carried out by the researchers for better understating of complex biological processes. Instead of studying complete biosignal; a decomposed biosignals gives better and more accurate information about the various dynamics involved in the process. Wavelet is one of the powerful transform which is applicable to time and frequency domain. While dealing with various types of physiological signals it is a tedious task to choose the correct or accurate wavelet for the given biosignal analysis. Electrical brain and heart signal along with peripheral pressure signal for 120 subjects is studied by the authors. Authors have checked various quality metrics decide suitability of various Wavelets for EEG, ECG, PP and PPG signal decomposition and reconstruction. The methodology was applied to normal as well as diseased subjects. Our results based on performance parameters like Mean Square Error, Mean Approximate Error, Signal to Error Ratio, PRMSD shows that orthogonal and biorthogonal wavelets are more suitable for bio-signal decomposition and reconstruction. This shows that selection of wavelet should not always be based on similarity between the mother wavelet and the nature of bio-signal.

Two common disciplines of speech processing are speaker recognition “identification and verification of speaker”, and speaker diarization, “who spoke when”. Motivated by various applications in automatic speaker recognition, speaker indexing, word counting, and audio transcription, speaker diarization (SD) becomes a significant area of signal processing. The basic designing steps of SD are feature extraction, voice activity detection (VAD), segmentation, and clustering. VAD process is accomplished by Daubechies 40, discrete wavelets transform (DWT). Initially, DWT was used for compression, scaling, and denoising of audio-stream and then partitioned into small frames of size 0.12 seconds. Next, features of each frame were extracted by applying nonlinear energy operator (NEO) based pyknogram. To measure the similarity between frames, a sliding window on delta-BIC distance metric was applied. A negative value of its output represents the same segments and vice-versa. To improve the output of the segmentation process, resegmentation was applied by information change rate method. At last, hierarchical clustering groups the homogeneous segments that correspond to a particular speaker and has been graphically represented by the dendrogram. The performance of SD was evaluated by F-measure and speaker diarization error rate (SER) and their results were compared with the traditional speaker diarization system that uses MFCC and BIC for segmentation and clustering. It reveals a significant reduction of 12.3% of SER in the proposed diarization system.

In this work, we propose a prospective novel method to address illumination invariant system for facial expression recognition. Facial expressions are used to convey nonverbal visual information among humans. This also plays a vital role in human-machine interface modules that have invoked attention of many researchers. Earlier machine learning algorithms require complex feature extraction algorithms and are relying on the size and uniqueness of features related to the subjects. In this paper, a deep convolutional neural network is proposed for facial expression recognition and it is trained on two publicly available datasets such as JAFFE and Yale databases under different illumination conditions. Furthermore, transfer learning is used with pre-trained networks such as AlexNet and ResNet-101 trained on ImageNet database. Experimental results show that the designed network could recognize up to 30% variation in the illumination and it achieves an accuracy of 92%.

The web application vulnerability remediation activities are important in terms of actual risk management in corporate security activities. However, traditional software development resource estimation methods do not discuss resource estimation for software vulnerability remediation in terms of security. Moreover, it is difficult to estimate the exact web vulnerability remediation resources using correction factors. In these backgrounds this study aims to establish a resource estimation methodology for web application vulnerability remediation in terms of security from the perspective of dynamic analysis, contributing to foundation building for the systematic management of web application vulnerability remediation among information security organizations and related practitioners. For the new model development, this study used 64 application data of the experimental company to derive the security function point method and 6 web vulnerability assessment project data from the same company to verify the methodology.Hence a web application vulnerability remediation standard was established, and a new security web vulnerability remediation resource estimation technique, “Security Function Point Method (SFPM),” was proposed through data collection based on the standard.It covers the de facto global web application vulnerability framework named OWASP Top 10(2017) and several Korea’s standards fromthe practical field. Thus, it is possible tocalculate the web application vulnerability remediation resourcesin a better way.

Published: December 2019

When a robot moves from the initial position to the desired position, one or more obstacles having curved periphery are likely to be encountered. When the robot encounters any static obstacle, to avoid the collision, it deviates its path. When the divergence occurs, the robot has more than one direction to reach its destination. Using recursive algorithm, the shortest path is taken from all these alternative paths. The efficiency of the path obtained from alternate paths and decision tree values, validation is done using chi square test. Multiple robots are used in medical and industrial fields where they are likely to move between people and static obstacles when distributing food services, medical supplies, transporting goods from one location to another and many such applications.

Published: December 2019

Effective communication, team working and human factors are given little attention in traditional medical curricula. However, these skills are fundamentally important during crisis resource management (CRM) in healthcare. These skills can be learnt and can be taught very effectively within a simulated environment. Thus simulation-based training on CRM can positively impact patient safety. One such course which focuses on the management of common neonatal emergencies is the ‘Neonatal Emergencies Simulation Team training’ (NEST) program. This one day multiprofessional educational program, originally designed by the London Neonatal Transfer Service, aims to develop multidisciplinary confidence and competence in the management of common neonatal emergencies. This program has been evaluated positively in India, Nepal, Saudi Arabia and the UK and shows promise for wider implementation in high-, middle- and lowincome countries. Here we give an overview of the program and its implications. Citation: Mohinuddin S, Rajkumar Rajendram R, Swamy S.

Published: December 2019

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been shown to result in cerebral vasospasm at day 4 to day 14, which is the main cause of mortality and morbidity after SAH. Outcome after SAH depends on many factors, including the severity of the event, medical management, and prevention of several serious complications. The principal goal in management of vasospasm after SAH is to prevent delayed ischemic neurological deficit (DIND) by decreasing intracranial pressure (ICP), optimizing cerebral oxygen demand rate and improving cerebral blood flow (CBF). Therapeutic management has been applied to prevent or treat vasospasm, including hemodynamic therapy, and endovascular therapy. Endovascular therapies, including mechanical angioplasty and chemical angioplasty with administration of intra-arterial (IA) vasodilator, have been widely used and given a good outcome. The purpose of this article is to describe the management of vasospasm including medical management and endovascular treatment. This review will describe the treatment modalities and management strategies to treat vasospasm.Abbreviations: SAH – subarachnoid hemorrhage; aSAH – aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage; TCD – transcranial Doppler; ROS – reactive oxygen species; ICAM – intercellular adhesion molecule; VCAM – vascular cell adhesion molecule; IL – interleukin; CTA – computed tomography angiography; MRA – magnetic resonance angiography; CBF – cerebral blood flow; DIND – delayed ischemic neurological deficit; RCT - randomized controlled trialsCitation: Prahaztuti D, Hidayati HB, Sani AF.

Published: December 2019

The term artificial intelligence (AI) was introduced in 1950. There have been many attempts to develop machines capable of performing cognitive and skill based tasks of anesthesiologist based on the principles of AI. These attempts have not been successful because of the complexities of anesthesia practice. Recent innovations in AI, especially machine learning, will continue to grow in importance in the years to come and will greatly revolutionize the face of anesthesia along with surgical practice, perioperative medicine practiced in clinics, and imaging interpretation. Anesthesiologists should continue to embrace this technology, stay up to date with the advances in AI, and also make genuine efforts to smoothly assimilate it in their routine practice now so that they can be the revolutionaries of their own future. We hope to see an ever-widening spectrum of the uses of AI in all fields of medical practice, and anesthesiology is not an exception. Its time our friends start visualizing the many applications of AI in their practice. Citation: Khan FH, Fazal M. Artificial intelligence--- Future of Anesthesiology!!

Authors: Pandey Mamata , Johnson Kieran , Siddiqui Muhammad A.
Published: December 2019

Purpose: The objective of the study was to examine choice of anesthesia for total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in different provinces of Canada over a five-year period.bIn a retrospective, cross-sectional study, national data for patients undergoing THAs and TKAs between 1st April 2011 and 31st March 2016 was examined. The primary outcome was the anesthetic type used in the surgery, which was categorized as general, spinal, combined, or ‘other’. Total number and percentage of surgeries carried out using each anesthetic type were calculated per fiscal year, in non-teaching and TIs, in each Canadian province and territories, exclusive of Québec. Non-parametric statistics (Pearson Chi square tests) were used to compare the choice of anesthetic type by fiscal year and institution type.Results: During the study period, neuraxial anesthesia (NA) was used for 74.7% of all THAs and 80.3% of all TKAs nationwide. In NTIs, 76.2% of THAs and 80.5% of TKAs were carried out with NA. This trend was similar to that within teaching hospitals, where 73.1% of THAs and 80.6% of TKAs were carried out with NA. Interprovincial comparisons demonstrated a greater preference for NA for both THAs and TKAs in majority of the provinces. There were no significant differences in anesthetic choice between teaching and NTIs.Conclusion: Neuraxial anesthesia was the anesthesia of choice for THA and TKA during the entire study period in Canada, both in teaching and non-teaching institutions. During the study period, a majority of provinces showed a trend of increasing use of neuraxial anesthesia for both THA and TKA, with few exceptions.Citation: Pandey M, Johnson K, Siddiqui MA.

La leptospirosis equina se cree poco común por ser habitualmente subclínica, pero estúdios recientes sugieren que es una infección extendida geográficamente, con diversos perfiles de incidencia y serovares infectantes. Por su elevado nivel poblacional y su empleo en múltiples tareas, corresponde considerar a los equinos como potencial fuente de infección humana. En Uruguay, hasta el momento, no hay registros de leptospirosis en equinos. Esta enfermedad se asocia principalmente con el reservorio bovino, pero determinados equinos comparten espacios con bovinos y otros animales de producción en establecimientos ganaderos, y en establecimientos de cría existen abundantes roedores atraídos por el alimento y forraje.

Моделирование воздействия атмосферного электричества на динамику мощных тропических циклонов
Authors: Smahtin A.P.
Published: December 2019

Ключевой проблемой исследования динамики мощных тропических циклонов является разработка физической и математической моделей этого природного явления. Разрушительный характер тропических циклонов практически исключает проведение натурных измерений его параметров, оставляя лишь возможность проведения дистанционных исследований, что не позволяет вскрыть все механизмы усиления циклонов. Одним из возможных вариантов решения этой проблемы яляется использование аналогового моделирования с помощью модельной физической установки, основные параметры которой соответствуют параметрам тропического циклона в соответствии с известной теории подобия магнитогидродинамических течений.
Маршрутизация автотранспорта с применением облачных вычислений в сети Internet
Authors: Logunova IU.A.
Published: December 2019

В данной работе рассматривается задача маршрутизации автотранспорта. Эти задача имеет важное прикладное значение в транспортной логистике. В связи с тем, что она является NP-трудной, проблема ее изучения, создания новых и модификации существующих методов её решения по-прежнему остается актуальной. Поскольку в последнее время для решения задачи маршрутизации интенсивное развитие получили алгоритмы, основанные на вероятностно-направленном переборе: генетические, эволюционные и алгоритмы поисковой оптимизации, нами был сделан выбор в пользу генетических алгоритмов. В связи с расширением информационного пространства и увеличения в разы информации для анализа, становится очевидным, что решать подобные NP-трудные задачи на практике целесообразно с использованием новых IT технологий - облачных вычислений. В связи с этим отличительной особенностью данной работы является не только построение и проверка модификации генетического алгоритма, но и использование облачной платформы как услугу в сети Internet для проведения вычислений. Для решения поставленной задачи был разработан модифицированный генетический алгоритм, учитывающий степень деградации популяции и увеличивающий разнообразие популяции за счет применения различных генетических операторов в блоке эволюционной адаптации. Так же был проведен ряд экспериментов, в ходе которых проведено сравнение разработанных алгоритмов с различными кроссинговерами: упорядочивающим и жадным. Практические результаты исследований практически совпали с теоретическими предпосылками.
MANAJEMEN WIRELESS DENGAN MAPPING SSID ACCESS POINT PADA STMIK LOMBOK
Authors: Tantoni Ahmad , Zaen Mohammad Taufan Asri
Published: December 2019

The wireless network at STMIK Lombok is connected to the local server network and the internet with the spread of access points in several buildings. In some parts of the building have different strengths and the access point or wireless signal strengths, some have broad and strong signal coverage, but there are also areas that have limited / weak signal coverage, even no wireless or blank-spot signal. This blank spot can be caused by many obstacles, including walls, tiles, trees, and others.

Based on observations at STMIK Lombok, wireless signal coverage has not been able to cover the entire campus building area; many are unstable and tend to be weak. Therefore, wireless management research was conducted by mapping the SSID access point which is expected to offer/give a solution so that the wireless signal can cover all STMIK Lombok campus buildings.

Wireless management by mapping SSID access points on STMIK Lombok provides a solution for location placement and number of access points to be installed so that the campus area of ​​STMIK Lombok can be covered by wireless networks.
