Performance Evaluation of Push-To-Talk Group CommunicationIJMER
Recently the VoIP technology has been used for the purpose of voice conversation through the
Internet since the proliferation of smart phones. In this paper, we are interested in the network performance
of the group communication a.k.a. the push-to-talk (PTT) service. As the media traffic to a VoIP server
increases, the VoIP server can be a bottleneck and the voice quality can be declined, which results from the
asymmetry between the in-bound traffic and the out-bound traffic in a VoIP server. To simulate the voice
packet transfer of the group communication, we use ns-2.34 and the ns2VoIP++ package to calculate the
end-to-end mean opinion score. Simulation results show that both the packet error rate and the packet delay
have a significant effect on the performance in terms of the mean opinion score.
Pose and Illumination in Face Recognition Using Enhanced Gabor LBP & PCA IJMER
This paper presents the face recognition based on Enhanced GABOR LBP and PCA. Some
of the challenges in face recognition are occlusion, pose and illumination .In this paper, we are more
focused on varying pose and illumination. We divided this algorithm into five stages. First stage finds
the fiducial points on face using Gabor filter bank as this filter is well known for illumination
compensation. Second stage applies the morphological techniques for reduce useless fiducial points.
Third stage applies the LBP on reduced fiducial points with neighborhood pixel for improving the pose
variation. Forth stage uses PCA to detect the best variance points which are necessary to characterize
the training images. The last recognition stage includes finding the Euclidean norm of the feature
weight vectors with the test weight vector. In this project, we used 20 images of 20 different persons
from ORL database for training. For testing, we used images with varying illumination, pose and
occluded images of the same training

Onion is an important field crop and it is widely cultivated as a spice crop in Bangladesh. The major onion growing districts in Bangladesh are Rajshahi, Faridpur, Pabna, Meherpur, Kushtia, Magura, Bogura, Rangpur, Thakurgaon, Dinajpur, Jamalpur etc. Although different types of improved onion varieties are cultivated here in this country but the two popular local varieties namely ‘Taherpuri’ and ‘Faridpuri’ have good market demand in the market due to their good bulb shape, size, taste, flavour, pungency and storability. However, no improvement of these 2 varieties have been done so far as a result the yield of these 2 local varieties is poor and the bulb quality has been deteriorated significantly. Among these 2 popular varieties, in an effort to improve the variety ‘Taherpuri’; bulb samples of local ‘Taherpuri’ variety were collected and after following a series of breeding steps finally the improvement of the local stock has been made at BRAC Agricultural Research & Development Centre. It has been released as ‘Improved Taherpuri’ onion variety which is characterized by excellent plant vigour, good uniformity rate, larger bulb size having good taste and storability. Its yield has been recorded as 10-12 Mt/acre with better bulb shape, size, bulb wt. (bulb wt. 40-45gm) and good bulb quality as well. Desirable quantity of good quality seeds was also obtained from the newly developed improved variety. #To enjoy my you tube video on onion seed production please follow the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGbLuxvsVT4&t=98s

A Study on Translucent Concrete Product and Its Properties by Using Optical F...IJMER
- Translucent concrete is a concrete based material with light-transferring properties,
obtained due to embedded light optical elements like Optical fibers used in concrete. Light is conducted
through the concrete from one end to the other. This results into a certain light pattern on the other
surface, depending on the fiber structure. Optical fibers transmit light so effectively that there is
virtually no loss of light conducted through the fibers. This paper deals with the modeling of such
translucent or transparent concrete blocks and panel and their usage and also the advantages it brings
in the field. The main purpose is to use sunlight as a light source to reduce the power consumption of
illumination and to use the optical fiber to sense the stress of structures and also use this concrete as an
architectural purpose of the building

Fabrication & Characterization of Bio Composite Materials Based On Sunnhemp F...IJMER
The present day technology demands eco-friendly developments. In this era the
composite material are playing a vital roal in different field of Engineering .The composite materials
are using as a principle materials. Nowaday the composite materials are utilizing as a important
component of engineering field .Where as the importance of the applications of composites is well
known, but thrust on the use of natural fibres in it for reinforcement has been given priority for some
times. But changing from synthetic fibres to natural fibres provides only half green-composites. A
partial green composite will be achieved if the matrix component is also eco-friendly. Keeping this in
view, a detailed literature surveyed has been carried out through various issues of the Journals
related to this field. The material systems used are sunnhemp fibres. Some epoxy and hardener has
been also added for stability and drying of the bio-composites. Various graphs and bar-charts are

and ORIGIN 6.0 software. To determining tensile strengths, Various properties for different biocomposites
have been compared among themselves. Comparison of the behaviour of bio-composites of
this work has been also compare with other works. The bio-composites developed in this work are
likely to get applications in fall ceilings, partitions, bio-degradable packagings, automotive interiors,
sports things (e.g. rackets, nets, etc.), toys etc.
Geochemistry and Genesis of Kammatturu Iron Ores of Devagiri Formation, Sandu...IJMER
The Greenstone belts of Karnataka are enriched in BIFs in Dharwar craton, where Iron
formations are confined to the basin shelf, clearly separated from the deeper-water iron formation that
accumulated at the basin margin and flanking the marine basin. Geochemical data procured in terms of
major, trace and REE are plotted in various diagrams to interpret the genesis of BIFs. Al2O3, Fe2O3 (T),
TiO2, CaO, and SiO2 abundances and ratios show a wide variation. Ni, Co, Zr, Sc, V, Rb, Sr, U, Th,
ΣREE, La, Ce and Eu anomalies and their binary relationships indicate that wherever the terrigenous
component has increased, the concentration of elements of felsic such as Zr and Hf has gone up. Elevated
concentrations of Ni, Co and Sc are contributed by chlorite and other components characteristic of basic
volcanic debris. The data suggest that these formations were generated by chemical and clastic
sedimentary processes on a shallow shelf. During transgression, chemical precipitation took place at the
sediment-water interface, whereas at the time of regression. Iron ore formed with sedimentary structures
and textures in Kammatturu area, in a setting where the water column was oxygenated.

specimen configurations under different heat treated conditions and the corresponding results were
compared with the analysis outcome
Non linear analysis of Robot Gun Support Structure using Equivalent Dynamic A...IJMER
Robot guns are being increasingly employed in automotive manufacturing to replace
risky jobs and also to increase productivity. Using a single robot for a single operation proves to be
expensive. Hence for cost optimization, multiple guns are mounted on a single robot and multiple
operations are performed. Robot Gun structure is an efficient way in which multiple welds can be done
simultaneously. However mounting several weld guns on a single structure induces a variety of
dynamic loads, especially during movement of the robot arm as it maneuvers to reach the weld
locations. The primary idea employed in this paper, is to model those dynamic loads as equivalent G
force loads in FEA. This approach will be on the conservative side, and will be saving time and
subsequently cost efficient. The approach of the paper is towards creating a standard operating
procedure when it comes to analysis of such structures, with emphasis on deploying various technical
aspects of FEA such as Non Linear Geometry, Multipoint Constraint Contact Algorithm, Multizone
meshing .

Intrusion Detection and Forensics based on decision tree and Association rule...IJMER
This paper present an approach based on the combination of, two techniques using
decision tree and Association rule mining for Probe attack detection. This approach proves to be
better than the traditional approach of generating rules for fuzzy expert system by clustering methods.
Association rule mining for selecting the best attributes together and decision tree for identifying the
best parameters together to create the rules for fuzzy expert system. After that rules for fuzzy expert
system are generated using association rule mining and decision trees. Decision trees is generated for
dataset and to find the basic parameters for creating the membership functions of fuzzy inference
system. Membership functions are generated for the probe attack. Based on these rules we have
created the fuzzy inference system that is used as an input to neuro-fuzzy system. Fuzzy inference
system is loaded to neuro-fuzzy toolbox as an input and the final ANFIS structure is generated for
outcome of neuro-fuzzy approach. The experiments and evaluations of the proposed method were
done with NSL-KDD intrusion detection dataset. As the experimental results, the proposed approach
based on the combination of, two techniques using decision tree and Association rule mining
efficiently detected probe attacks. Experimental results shows better results for detecting intrusions as
compared to others existing methods
Natural Language Ambiguity and its Effect on Machine LearningIJMER
"Natural language processing" here refers to the use and ability of systems to process
sentences in a natural language such as English, rather than in a specialized artificial computer
language such as C++. The systems of real interest here are digital computers of the type we think of as
personal computers and mainframes. Of course humans can process natural languages, but for us the
question is whether digital computers can or ever will process natural languages. We have tried to
explore in depth and break down the types of ambiguities persistent throughout the natural languages
and provide an answer to the question “How it affects the machine translation process and thereby
machine learning as whole?” .
Today in era of software industry there is no perfect software framework available for
analysis and software development. Currently there are enormous number of software development
process exists which can be implemented to stabilize the process of developing a software system. But no
perfect system is recognized till yet which can help software developers for opting of best software
development process. This paper present the framework of skillful system combined with Likert scale. With
the help of Likert scale we define a rule based model and delegate some mass score to every process and
develop one tool name as MuxSet which will help the software developers to select an appropriate
development process that may enhance the probability of system success.
Material Parameter and Effect of Thermal Load on Functionally Graded CylindersIJMER
The present study investigates the creep in a thick-walled composite cylinders made
up of aluminum/aluminum alloy matrix and reinforced with silicon carbide particles. The distribution
of SiCp is assumed to be either uniform or decreasing linearly from the inner to the outer radius of
the cylinder. The creep behavior of the cylinder has been described by threshold stress based creep
law with a stress exponent of 5. The composite cylinders are subjected to internal pressure which is
applied gradually and steady state condition of stress is assumed. The creep parameters required to
be used in creep law, are extracted by conducting regression analysis on the available experimental
results. The mathematical models have been developed to describe steady state creep in the composite
cylinder by using von-Mises criterion. Regression analysis is used to obtain the creep parameters
required in the study. The basic equilibrium equation of the cylinder and other constitutive equations
have been solved to obtain creep stresses in the cylinder. The effect of varying particle size, particle
content and temperature on the stresses in the composite cylinder has been analyzed. The study
revealed that the stress distributions in the cylinder do not vary significantly for various combinations
of particle size, particle content and operating temperature except for slight variation observed for
varying particle content. Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) emerged and led to the development
of superior heat resistant materials.

The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Abstract: Onion produced in Kharif and Late Kharif season is not suitable for storage while onion produced in summer season
can be stored upto 5-6 months and it can be brought in the during market rainy season i.e., from June to Oct. There are certain
problems which arise during conventional storage of onion viz. loss in weight, sprouting and rotting of bulb. There are three
types onion storage structure developed by NHRDF and domestic onion storage structure located at Kalwan. The construction
cost per sq.ft. of this structure ie.Traditional onion storage structure, Dindigul onion storage structure, Improved low cost onion
storage structure developed by NHRDF, and Low cost onion storage structure (Kalwan) are Calculated. The quantity of onions
were stored in different onion storage structure during the last week of May is about 1000kg .There are some losses such as
weight losses ,rotting losses and sprouting losses were found to be in storage.This losses were found high in storage structure
developed by NHRDF as compared to domestic onion storage structure (Kalwan).The Cost per sq.ft (Rs) and per kg storage cost
against construction cost (Rs) of domestic onion storage structure is less as compare to onion storage structures in NHRDF.

INTRODUCTION
Onion is a term used for many plants in the genus Alliums. They are known by the common name "onion" but, used
without qualifiers; it usually refers to Alliums cepa. Alliums cepa is also known as the "garden onion" or "bulb" onion. It is
grown underground by the plant as a vertical shoot that is used for food storage, leading to the possibility of confusion with a
tuber, which it is not. Onions, one of the oldest vegetables, are found in a large number of recipes and preparations spanning
almost the totality of the world's cultures. They are now available in fresh, frozen, canned, pickled, powdered, chopped, and
dehydrated forms. Onions can be used, usually chopped or sliced, in almost every type of food including cooked foods and fresh
salads and as a spicy garnish. They are rarely eaten on their own but usually act as accompaniment to the main course.
Depending on the variety, an onion can be sharp, spicy, tangy and pungent or mild and sweet.
There is an annual production of approximately 58-60 lakh mt of onions in the country. Out of this about 26-28%,
approximately 16 lakh mt onions are produced in Maharashtra. Last year 8.26 lakh mt onions have been exported from the
country, out of which 5.40 lakh mt has been produced in Maharashtra. For this purpose continuous export quota and stable onion
prices in domestic market are necessary.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
2.1 Storage Structure
Material used for construction of onion storage structure
1. Cement
Cement is used for purpose of construction work; it is also used to bind the stone, sand, bricks etc.
2. Concrete
It is carefully mixture of cement, fine aggregates, sand and water. It is used for construction of storage structure.
3. Bamboos
It is flexible, very strong, durable and abundantly. So it is used for construction of storage structure.
4. Leaves of sugarcane and coconut
It is one of the wastes material and available easily in the field. So it is used for roofing purpose. Coconut leaves are strong yet
flexible .The leaves are actually fronds composed of numerous leaflets, which have a flat and a thin midrib.
5. Gunny cloth
Gunny cloth is used at inner lining of roof to check the leakage of rain water. The gunny cloth also reduces the temperature
inside the storage structure.
6. Iron angle
Iron angle is used support to side wall. It provides stability to the structure and increases the life of the structure It also provides
rigid support to the side wall of the onion storage structure.

These structures have life span 4 years. After 4 years this structure is reconstructed and its cost of construction is
Rs.1000 this is due to reuse of bamboo and wooden block. Thus total cost =Rs.1810+Rs.1000=Rs.2810
Cost per sq.ft.=2810/300/(4+4)= Rs.1.17
Per kg storage cost against construction cost: - x/1000 =Rs.2810/1000 = Rs 2.81
2.3 METHODS
1. Unmarketable
In this bulb which is less than 20mm in size are excluded. Also the bulbs which are rotten, decayed are not considered. If we
considered 100kgs of onion bulbs around 5% are unmarketable.
2. Spoilage
This losses is depends upon temperature variation .As the temperature increases spoilage loss increases .They are around 2-3%
3. Double splitted
These losses are due to temperature variation during the bulb development period these splitted bulb are strictly avoided .These
losses are around 2.57%
4. Off Coloured bulbs
Generally the kharif onion is dark red colour and rabbi onion is light red in colour. According to the onion which is not
resembling to this colour should be avoided.
5. Bolting losses
These losses depends upon temperature variation .As the temperature increases spoilage increases .They are around 1.29%
6 Mis shaped
The bulbs which are nearly round are considered .The bulb which are flat, globular are avoided .These losses are around 1.5%.
7. Other losses
Other losses are microbial decay losses, damage in transport are negligible.

1.03 respectively The quantity of onions were stored in different onion But these losses may be varies according to climate, and
location.
Result and discussion reveals that the domestic onion storage structure is proved to be best. The losses are very less,
quality and quantity of produce is maintained. The Cost per sq.ft (Rs) and per kg storage cost against construction cost (Rs) of
domestic onion storage structure is less as compare to onion storage structures in NHRDF. The low cost domestic onion storage
structure may be beneficial to small growers. This may profitable to those growers who are growing onion at two or three year’s
interval due to shortage of irrigation water and inclusion of rotation of crops.
