X-ray semiconductor detectors do not show an equal responsiveness for different incident photon energies. Detector response is required to be independent from the energy especially for dose measurements in medical or nuclear safety applications. So the target of the project is to achieve an energy independent response of the silicon x-ray detector. The active area of the silicon detector is partly covered with a brass plate featuring a round hole with a thin aluminum foil. The diameter has to be optimized to achieve an energy independent response of the detector. Monte Carlo simulation toolkit Geant4 is used to model the structure, matter and physical properties of the device. Silicon detector has a surface area of 10 mm x 10mm and about 500 um thick. Brass plate with thickness of 1.8 mm and round hole is mounted on top of it. X-ray photons with energies in different steps between 50 keV and 150 keV are used in the simulation. Monte Carlo simulation results presented in this report determines the best possible energy independent response of the silicon x-ray detector.

Confidentiality, Privacy and Protection of data (CPPD) are the major challenges in the cloud environment for cloud users such as industrials and organizations. Hence major companies are loath to migrate to cloud and also still using the private cloud because of lock in CPPD of cloud. Cloud Service Providers (CSP) are unable to elucidate strength of the storage and services due to lack of data security. To solve the above issue, we trust, algorithms are not the only solution for data security. In this regards, we suggest to change the architecture and develop a new mechanisms. In this paper, we are proposed two thinks. First is move to single cloud architecture to multiple cloud architecture and second is develop an innovative algorithm. And one more think also considered and proposed an inimitable mechanism to use an innovative algorithm in the multi cloud architecture for improving CPPD.

For any image identification based applications, edge detection is the primary step. The intention of the edge detection in image processing is to minimize the information that is not required in the analysis of identification of an image. In the process of reduction of insignificant data in the image, it may lead to some loss in information which in turn raise some problems like missing of boundaries with low contrast, false edge detection and some other noise affected problems. In order to reduce the effects due to noise, a modified version of popular edge detection algorithm “Canny edge detection algorithm” is proposed. Artix 7 FPGA board set up is used to implement, by using Xilinx platform the image that is obtained as output is displayed on monitor which is connected with FPGA board using connector port DVI. MATLAB Simulink is used for algorithm simulation and then it is executed on FPGA board using Xilinx platform. The results provide good motivation to use in different edge detection applications.

For decades, researchers from many fields have been utilizing eye tracking as an assessment tool. In human-computer interaction, recent technical advancements indicate eye-gazing as a new input modality. Despite all the improvements and advantages, eye tracking is still seen as challenging and it is not widely used. This research made a preliminary step towards the evaluation of people’s awareness of eye tracking and their attitudes towards it. An online questionnaire was designed, and it is comprised of three users' categories: general users, researchers and eye-tracking researchers. A total of 98 users participated in the survey. The survey indicated that approximately half of the respondents had heard about eye-tracking technology, 47% of them working in the research area. Nevertheless, the majority of them did not know the basic facts and theories about this technology. Even among researchers, only 10% of them had adopted eye tracking, and they agreed on the value eye tracking offers for different research disciplines. nevertheless, they also agreed with the perception that eye tracking is a difficult and expensive research methodology. In conclusion, the results support the usefulness of eye tracking and favorable attitudes towards it among most users, but the low response to the survey could also indicate negative attitudes toward eye tracking and a lack of awareness. Therefore, in order to take advantage of eye-tracking technology, further efforts such as training and cost reduction are recommended to the eye-tracking community and manufacturers.

A Computer aided detection of lung nodules plays a vital role in diagnosis of lung cancer. The aim of this paper is to utilize the characteristics of hybrid Fuzzy C-Means-Ant lion Optimization (FCM-ALO) and morphological operations to extract the juxtapleural lung nodules. The hybrid FCM-ALO based clustering helps in isolating the nodules and boundaries of lung lobes. Morphological operations are then applied to isolate the juxtapleural nodules from the lung boundaries. The proposed method is evaluated using 28 computed tomography (CT) case studies from Lung Imaging Database Consortium-Image Database Resource Initiative (LIDC-IDRI) with 100 juxtapleural nodules. The FCM-ALO based clustering approach gives 0.9464, 0.1575 and 0.2009 as average silhouette index (S), Davies-Bouldin index (DB) and entropy respectively. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the proposed juxtapleural lung nodule segmentation are 99.5\%, 95.03%, and 97.63% respectively.

Imbalanced data learning is a research area and day by day development is going on. Due to these researchers are motivated to pay attention to find efficient and adaptive methods for real-world problems. Machine learning, as well as data mining, is a field where researchers are finding different methods to solve problems related to imbalanced datasets and also the challenges faced in day to day life. The uneven class distribution in the dataset is the reason behind the degradation of performance in approaches used by data mining as well as machine learning. Continuous advancements of machine learning as well as mining data combining it with big data, a deep insight is required to understand the nature of learning imbalanced data. New challenges are emerging due to this development. Among the two approaches algorithm level and data level, the most popular approach compared to this is the hybrid approach. It is found that there is a bias for the majority class which affects the decision making task and overall accuracy of classification. The ensemble method is an efficient technique to deal with the uneven distribution of data. The aim of the paper is to presents the overview of class imbalance problems, solutions to handle it, open issues and challenges in learning imbalanced datasets. Based on the experiment conducted on one dataset it is found that ensemble technique along with other data-level methods gives good results. This hybrid method can be applied in many real-life applications like software defect prediction, behavior analysis, intrusion detection, medical diagnosis, etc. The paper further provides research directions in learning from the imbalanced dataset.

Published: February 2020

Cardiac arrest is relatively an uncommon event during cesarean sections. That’s why obstetric teams have low exposure to these critical situations and need frequent training in early identification, differential diagnosis and treatment. We present a case report of a 36-year-old woman, who underwent cesarean section under spinal anesthesia due to delayed labor progress. Once the skin incision was performed the patient underwent asystole. There is a wide range of etiologies for maternal cardiac arrest. We describe and analyze the possible etiologies that could have led to cardiac arrest in this particular case.

Changes in the chemical composition of essential oils during storage
Authors: Fedotova I. A. , Paliy A. E. , Shevchuk O. M. , Feskov S. A.
Published: February 2020

During the storage of essential oils, physical and chemical changes occur, leading to changes in the component composition, as a result of which the organoleptic and pharmacological properties of the oils change. The composition of the essential oils of Tagetes minuta L. and Cymbopogon flexuosus (Nees ex Steud.) W. Watson was studied by chromatography-mass spectrometry fresh and after storage. It was found that in T. minuta essential oil after storage for 6 months, the mass fraction of the main component, tagetenone, decreases due to the appearance of products of its oligomerization. Such changes lead to an improvement in the organoleptic properties of the oil. After storing the oil for 24 months, polymer forms of tagetones are formed in it and its viscosity is significantly increased, which makes its further use impossible. When storing C. flexyosus essential oil for 6 months, no changes were found in its chemical composition. After 24 months of storage, the mass fractions of cis and trans citral are reduced and undesirable components appear: isomeric forms of citrals, photocitral and caryophyllene oxide. Unpleasant notes appear in the aroma of the oil, and its quality decreases. Studies show that the chemical transformations of volatile components in essential oils do not always lead to a deterioration in their properties and depend on the species of the plant material and the duration of storage.

La investigación tuvo por objetivo analizar el clientelismo político en la gestión pública municipal considerando sus características y consecuencias como forma de dominación política en el municipio Valledupar departamento del Cesar, Colombia durante el periodo 2011 a 2015. El estudio siguió una metodología cualitativa, de tipo documental hermenéutica interpretativa con un diseño bibliográfico y sustentado en autores como Machado (2007), González (2007), Graziano (1975), Kitschelt, (2007), entre otros.Como instrumento de recolección de datos, se utilizó la ficha y la técnica fue el subrayado de los documentos revisados, tales como programas de gobierno, memoria y cuentas, Leyes de la República de Colombia, reglamentos y sentencias sobre el objeto de estudio. Luego de haber analizado los hallazgos, partiendo de los aportes de los teóricos más la interpretación del investigador, se deriva que las características más importantes del clientelismo son la colonización del aparato estatal, asignación de puestos burocráticos y flujo de dineros estatales. Como consecuencias, tiene que las instituciones participantes en relaciones de clientelismo, terminan dependiendo del poder político para recibir privilegios o favores generando en desigualdad de oportunidades con aquellas fuera de dicha relación. Además, los recursos financieros para obtener los favores de la clientela, proceden por lo general, del erario público cuando éstos deberían ser empleados en las prioridades del país. En conclusión, el clientelismo ha permeado el sistema político colombiano a nivel municipal, estableciendo relaciones jerárquicas desiguales, brindando la promoción de votos a cambio de protección, dispensa de favores o asignación de recursos públicos. Esta situación, desvirtúa el empoderamiento de la ciudadanía en cuanto a participar de forma autónoma en los procesos electorales.

Authors: Rochman Sagita
Published: February 2020

Honey is a natural sweet substance produced by bees with nectar flower ingredients containing various nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, plant pigments and aromatic components. Honey consists of water (17%), fructose (38.2%), glucose (31.3%), other disaccharides (5%), melezitose (<0.1%), erlose (0.8%) , other oligasakarida (3.6%), minerals (0.2%), amino acids (0.3%). It also contains anti-microbial substances, which can prevent some disease on human. Because it has a high economic value and contains unique substances, honey is often falsified. Honey can be faked in various ways by mixing natural artificial sweetener components or by giving the sugar (sucrose) into the honey, so it is dangerous if given to infants or people suffering from diabetes mellitus. The design of this research used spectrofotometer methode and pattern recognition algorithm (machine learning) system for classifying honey quality. It is based on honey having a chromophore group responsible for absorbance, electronic transition and color giver. We can also knowing the type of honey by using pattern recognition algorithm support vector machine.In this research is used three types of honey to using a spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 500 nm, the absorbance obtained in randu honey type of 0.523-0.654, coffee honey for 0.735-0.824, and rubber honey by 0.947-1.043.

Background: Scoliosis is a deformity of spine that has excessive lateral curve. The deformity could becaused by postural adaptation to an imbalance of local trunk muscles or by another risk factors. There are tworisk factors, that are obesity and physical activity, which have not been studied in Indonesia yet about theircorrelation with scoliosis The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between body mass index andphysical activity with scoliosis in young adults.Method: Study design was cross sectional. The subjects were High School students in Depok, recruited byconsecutive non-random sampling. The body mass index (BMI) was measured by body weight (Kg)/bodyheight (m2). The intensity of physical activity measured subjectively by International Physical ActivityQuestionnaires (IPAQ). Detection of postural scoliosis was by inspection and palpation and the deviationmeasured by scoliometer. The data were presence in univariate and bivariate, analyzed by the Pearsen Chisquare.Results: This study conducted in 165 subjects, the mean of age was 16-17 years old. There was no correlationbetween BMI and scoliosis (p=0,11). However the higher intensity of physical activity has correlated with thelower frequency of scoliosis (p=0.00).Conclusions: The lower intensity of physical activity increase the frequency of the postural scoliosis, in theother hand there was no correlation between BMI and scoliosis in young adults.Keywords : Scoliosis, Obesity, Physical activity

Anemia is frequently observed in heart failure (HF) patients. The aim of this prospective study was to assess if it is an independent predictor of outcome or a marker of a worse clinical condition in these patients. The study included 134 heart failure patients aged over 18 years. The patients were divided into two groups, according to the presence or absence of anemia at hospital admission. Anemia was defined as a hemoglobin concentration of less than 12 g/dl for women and less than 13 g/dl for men. The endpoints were: length of hospitalization, all cause-death during hospitalization, and all-cause death and HF rehospitalizations at 1 year. Anemia occurred in 33% of HF patients. The HF patients with anemia were significantly older, had more often ischemic etiology of heart failure and atrial fibrillation, chronic kidney disease and 3 or more comorbidities. The length of hospitalization was similar between the two groups. Deaths during hospitalization occurred in 13% of anemic and in 3% of the nonanemic patients (P=0.04). During the 1- year follow-up, 45% of the anemic vs. 28% of the nonanemic patients were rehospitalized due to aggravated HF (P=0.04), and 14% of the anemic vs 20% of the nonanemic patients died (P=0.38). Anemia was strongly predictive for in-hospital and 1- year all-cause deaths in univariate analysis, but not in multivariate analysis. Anemia seems more a marker of a worse clinical condition, rather than an independent risk factor in HF.

Highlighting the sandy soil of Oltenia Plain calls for a better knowledge of their variability their correlation with major natural factors from each physical geography. Pedogenetic processes specific sandy soils are strongly influenced by nature parent material. This leads, on the one hand, climate aridity of the soil due to strong heating and accumulation of small water reserves, consequences emphasizing the moisture deficit in the development of the vegetation and favoring weak deflation, and on the other hand, an increase in mineralization organic matter. Relief under wind characteristic sandy land, soil formation and distribution has some particularly of flat land with the land formed on the loess. The dune ridges are less evolved soils, profile underdeveloped and poorly supplied with nutrients compared to those on the slopes of the dunes and the interdune, whose physical and chemical properties are more favorable to plant growth.Both Romanati Plain and the Blahnita (Mehedinti) Plain and Bailesti Plain, sand wind shaped covering a finer material, loamy sand and even loess (containing up to 26% clay), also rippled with negative effects in terms of overall drainage. Depending on the pedogenetic physical and geographical factors that have contributed to soil cover, in the researched were identified following classes of soils: protisols, cernisols, cambisols, luvisols, hidrisols and antrosols.Obtaining appropriate agricultural production requires some land improvement works (especially fitting for irrigation) and agropedoameliorative works. Particular attention should be paid to preventing and combating wind erosion.
