Fruit Classification and Calories Measurement Systemijtsrd
Now a day, people around the world are becoming more sensitive to their diet. Fruits contribute to an essential part of the diet because they are a major source of energy, vitamins, fiber, plant chemicals and nutrients. Fruits are naturally low in fat, sodium & calories and rich in potassium and fiber, vitamin C. The proposed system gives quickly how much calories present in their diet or fruit intake that can be very useful to maintain health without expert dietitian advice. The system will take the images of fruit and using image processing, segmentation and classification it calculates the calorie content in the fruit. This work proposes an algorithm for fruit recognition and its calorie measurement based on the image features such as shape, color and texture. For shape based feature extraction the geometrical region parameters like area, major axis and minor axis are calculated. For color based segmentation the K-Mean Clustering method is used. The gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) is used to calculate different texture features. The user just takes a picture of the fruit image then to recognize the image to detect the type of fruit portion and classify using support vector machine. After classifying the type of the fruit, the calorie of each fruit with generally for 100g are derived using standard calories table.

The Impact of Digital Media on the Decentralization of Power and the Erosion ...ijtsrd
The impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has gained considerable attention in recent years. The adoption of digital technologies and the internet has resulted in declining influence and power for traditional gatekeepers such as publishing houses and news organizations. Simultaneously, digital media has facilitated the emergence of new voices and players in the media industry. Digital medias impact on power decentralization and gatekeeper erosion is visible in several ways. One significant aspect is the democratization of information, which enables anyone with an internet connection to publish and share content globally, leading to citizen journalism and bypassing traditional gatekeepers. Another aspect is the disruption of conventional media industry business models, as traditional organizations struggle to adjust to the decrease in advertising revenue and the rise of digital platforms. Alternative business models, such as subscription models and crowdfunding, have become more prevalent, leading to the emergence of new players. Overall, the impact of digital media on the distribution of power and the weakening of traditional gatekeepers has brought about significant changes in the media landscape and the way information is shared. Further research is required to fully comprehend the implications of these changes and their impact on society.

Comparative Analysis of Total Corporate Disclosure of Selected IT Companies o...ijtsrd
Disclosure is a process through which a business enterprise communicates with external parties. A corporate disclosure is communication of financial and non financial information of the activities of a business enterprise to the interested entities. Corporate disclosure is done through publishing annual reports. So corporate disclosure through annual reports plays a vital role in the life of all the companies and provides valuable information to investors. The basic objectives of corporate disclosure is to give a true and fair view of companies to the parties related either directly or indirectly like owner, government, creditors, shareholders etc. in the companies act, provisions have been made about mandatory and voluntary disclosure. The IT sector in India is rapidly growing, the trend to invest in the IT sector is rising and employment opportunities in IT sectors are also increasing. Therefore the IT sector is expected to have fair, full and adequate disclosure of all information. Unfair and incomplete disclosure may adversely affect the entire economy. A research study on disclosure practices of IT companies could play an important role in this regard. Hence, the present research study has been done to study and review comparative analysis of total corporate disclosure of selected IT companies of India and to put forward overall findings and suggestions with a view to increase disclosure score of these companies.

The Role of Mentoring and Its Influence on the Effectiveness of the Teaching ...ijtsrd
This paper reports on a study which was conducted to investigate the role of mentoring and its influence on the effectiveness of the teaching of Physics in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. The study adopted the convergent parallel mixed methods design, focusing on respondents in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected, analysed separately, and the results were compared to see if the findings confirm or disconfirm each other. The quantitative analysis found that majority of the respondents 72 of Physics teachers affirmed that they had more experienced colleagues as mentors to help build their confidence, improve their teaching, and help them improve their effectiveness and efficiency in guiding learners’ achievements. Only 28 of the respondents disagreed with these statements. With majority respondents 72 agreeing with the statements, it implies that in most secondary schools, experienced Physics teachers act as mentors to build teachers’ confidence in teaching and improving students’ learning. The interview qualitative data analysis summarized how secondary school Principals use meetings with mentors and mentees to promote mentorship in the school milieu. This has helped strengthen teachers’ classroom practices in secondary schools in the South West Region of Cameroon. With the results confirming each other, the study recommends that mentoring should focus on helping teachers employ social interactions and instructional practices feedback and clarity in teaching that have direct measurable impact on students’ learning achievements.

This study primarily focuses on the design of a high side buck converter using an Arduino microcontroller. The converter is specifically intended for use in DC DC applications, particularly in standalone solar PV systems where the PV output voltage exceeds the load or battery voltage. To evaluate the performance of the converter, simulation experiments are conducted using Proteus Software. These simulations provide insights into the input and output voltages, currents, powers, and efficiency under different state of charge SoC conditions of a 12V,70Ah rechargeable lead acid battery. Additionally, the hardware design of the converter is implemented, and practical data is collected through operation, monitoring, and recording. By comparing the simulation results with the practical results, the efficiency and performance of the designed converter are assessed. The findings indicate that while the buck converter is suitable for practical use in standalone PV systems, its efficiency is compromised due to a lower output current.

Sustainable Energy by Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O. Sadikuijtsrd
Energy becomes sustainable if it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some of the definitions of sustainable energy include the considerations of environmental aspects such as greenhouse gas emissions, social, and economic aspects such as energy poverty. Generally far more sustainable than fossil fuel are renewable energy sources such as wind, hydroelectric power, solar, and geothermal energy sources. Worthy of note is that some renewable energy projects, like the clearing of forests to produce biofuels, can cause severe environmental damage. The sustainability of nuclear power which is a low carbon source is highly debated because of concerns about radioactive waste, nuclear proliferation, and accidents. The switching from coal to natural gas has environmental benefits, including a lower climate impact, but could lead to delay in switching to more sustainable options. “Carbon capture and storage” can be built into power plants to remove the carbon dioxide CO2 emissions, but this technology is expensive and has rarely been implemented. Leading non renewable energy sources around the world is fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural gas. Nuclear energy is usually considered another non renewable energy source, although nuclear energy itself is a renewable energy source, but the material used in nuclear power plants is not. The paper addresses the issue of sustainable energy, its attendant benefits to the future generation, and humanity in general. Paul A. Adekunte | Matthew N. O. Sadiku | Janet O.

Concepts for Sudan Survey Act Implementations Executive Regulations and Stand...ijtsrd
This paper aims to outline the executive regulations, survey standards, and specifications required for the implementation of the Sudan Survey Act, and for regulating and organizing all surveying work activities in Sudan. The act has been discussed for more than 5 years. The Land Survey Act was initiated by the Sudan Survey Authority and all official legislations were headed by the Sudan Ministry of Justice till it was issued in 2022. The paper presents conceptual guidelines to be used for the Survey Act implementation and to regulate the survey work practice, standardizing the field surveys, processing, quality control, procedures, and the processes related to survey work carried out by the stakeholders and relevant authorities in Sudan. The conceptual guidelines are meant to improve the quality and harmonization of geospatial data and to aid decision making processes as well as geospatial information systems. The established comprehensive executive regulations will govern and regulate the implementation of the Sudan Survey Geomatics Act in all surveying and mapping practices undertaken by the Sudan Survey Authority SSA and state local survey departments for public or private sector organizations. The targeted standards and specifications include the reference frame, projection, coordinate systems, and the guidelines and specifications that must be followed in the field of survey work, processes, and mapping products. In the last few decades, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of geomatics activities and measurements on the Earths surface in space and time, together with observing and mapping the changes. In such cases, data must be captured promptly, standardized, and obtained with more accuracy and specified in much detail. The paper will also highlight the current situation in Sudan, the degree to which survey standards are used, the problems encountered, and the errors that arise from not using the standards and survey specifications.

Towards the Implementation of the Sudan Interpolated Geoid Model Khartoum Sta...ijtsrd
The discussions between ellipsoid and geoid have invoked many researchers during the recent decades, especially during the GNSS technology era, which had witnessed a great deal of development but still geoid undulation requires more investigations. To figure out a solution for Sudans local geoid, this research has tried to intake the possibility of determining the geoid model by following two approaches, gravimetric and geometrical geoid model determination, by making use of GNSS leveling benchmarks at Khartoum state. The Benchmarks are well distributed in the study area, in which, the horizontal coordinates and the height above the ellipsoid have been observed by GNSS while orthometric heights were carried out using precise leveling. The Global Geopotential Model GGM represented in EGM2008 has been exploited to figure out the geoid undulation at the benchmarks in the study area. This is followed by a fitting process, that has been done to suit the geoid undulation data which has been computed using GNSS leveling data and geoid undulation inspired by the EGM2008. Two geoid surfaces were created after the fitting process to ensure that they are identical and both of them could be counted for getting the same geoid undulation with an acceptable accuracy. In this respect, statistical operation played an important role in ensuring the consistency and integrity of the model by applying cross validation techniques splitting the data into training and testing datasets for building the geoid model and testing its eligibility. The geometrical solution for geoid undulation computation has been utilized by applying straightforward equations that facilitate the calculation of the geoid undulation directly through applying statistical techniques for the GNSS leveling data of the study area to get the common equation parameters values that could be utilized to calculate geoid undulation of any position in the study area within the claimed accuracy. Both systems were checked and proved eligible to be used within the study area with acceptable accuracy which may contribute to solving the geoid undulation problem in the Khartoum area, and be further generalized to determine the geoid model over the entire country, and this could be considered in the future, for regional and continental geoid model.

The important thing for weight management system is to

Therefore, the following three
1. Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
Basal metabolic rate, or BMR, is the measurement of an
organism's energy expenditure when at rest.Inotherwords,
when the person at rest, not digesting any food and at a
comfortable temperature, BMR is the amount of energy it
takes for their body to maintain life. About 70% of the
energy they use every day is due to their or
to keep them alive and healthy. The remaining 30% is
broken down into digestion of food (10%) and energy
needed for activity (20%).
Knowing BMR can be useful for trying to gain or lose weight.
Since BMR is a calculation of how much energy
maintain life, consuming more kilocalories in a day than the
BMR calls can cause to gain weight, while eating fewer
kilocalories than BMR requires is likely to cause to lose
weight. However, these numbers are also dependent upon
how active they are. Since exercising burns calories, if
persons are very active, they will need more calories to
sustain life than someone who is not active.
The BMR formula uses the variables of height, weight, age
and gender to calculate the Basal Metabolic Rate (BM

are different, they are given as below [4].

BMRFemale = 655+(9.6×weight)+(1.8×height)
2. Physical Activity (PA)
A much more accurate method for determining total daily
calorie requirement (TDCR) is to determine basal metabolic
rate (BMR) using multiple factors, including height, weight,
age, and sex, then multiply the BMR by an activity factor to
calculate TDCR. To calculate th

of total daily energy expenditure and is related to the type
and amount of food ingested. Therefore, the formula to
compute DIT is given as below:
DIT = (BMR + PA) × 0.1
4. Calorie Expenditure in Sleeping (CER)
It may seem like the human body is not doingmuchwhileit’s
sleeping, but it is still burning calories. Calories burned
during sleep are used to sustain vital functions in the body.
Monitoring and maintaining the internal temperature of the
body, repairing cells and pumping blood are some of the
nighttime activities that human body naturally does. If food
is eaten in the evenings it is digested the same exact way
food eaten during the day is digested.Therefore,itdecreases
about 10% of the BMR for the calorie expenditure while
sleeping. The formula computes the reduction of calorie
expenditure in sleeping (or named as calorie expenditure
reduction in sleeping (CER in sleep)), which is assumed to
last 8 hours, is given below [5]:
CER in sleep = BMR × 0.1 × 8/24
5. Total Daily Calorie requirement (TDCR)
Energy expenditure is the amount of energy (or calories)
that a person needs to carry out a physical function such as
breathing, circulating blood, digesting food, or physical
movement. Your total daily energy expenditure (TDCR) is
the total number of calories burned each day. To prevent
weight gain, energy intake or calorie intake must be
balanced with energy expenditure. To provide fuel for
movement and daily functions, your body creates energy in
the form of heat. The energy is measure in the form of
kilocalories, or calories. The total number of calories you
burn for energy each day is your total daily energy
expenditure or TDEE. Total daily energy expenditure can
vary from person to person depending on body size, gender,
body composition, genetics and activity level [5]. It can be
calculate by using the following equation.
TDCR = BMR + PA + DIT − CER in sleep
6. Three Macro Nutrients
After calculating that how many calories the user will be
eating per day, it needs to determinethreenutrients makeup
of user’s diet. Nutrients are environmental substances used
for energy, growth, and bodily functions by organisms.
Depending on the nutrient, these substances are needed in
small amounts or larger amounts. Those that are needed in
large amounts are called macronutrients. There are three
macronutrients required by humans:carbohydrates (sugar),
lipids (fats), and proteins. Each of these macronutrients
provides energy in the form of calories. The amount of
calories that each one provides varies. Therefore,thereare4
calories per gram in proteins and carbohydrate and 9
calories per gram in fat. This means that if the person look at
a food label and it lists 10 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams
of protein, and 0 grams of fat, that food would contain 40
calories.
The three nutrients are used the nutrition requirements will
be used in recipe computation module. Let ProtReq, FatReq,
and CarbReq be the daily proteins requirement, daily fats
requirement, and daily carbohydrates requirement,
respectively. According to the range of DOH’s
recommendation, the appropriate proportions of the three
macro-nutrients for users can be calculated as the following
formulas [3]. Three nuterient requirement calculation:
ProtReq = TDCR / 4 × ProtReq_ Range
FatReq = TDCR / 9 × FatReq_ Range
CarbReq = TDCR / 4 × CarbReq_ Range
where ProtReq Range is a value selectedbetween16.6% and
17.4%, FatReq Range is a value selected between 27.6%and
28.7% and CarbReq Range is a value selected between
54.0% and 55.3%. According to users’ health conditions and
eating habit, we can decide the proportion of the three
macro-nutrients for users with the help of nutritionists [6].
7. Recipe Computation Module (RCM)
In this module, based on the user inputted profile and the
amount of foods taken by the user for breakfast and lunch,
the system computes the recipe for dinner by using linear
programming. Therefore, suppose that there are N kinds of
foods in the Asian food database provided by, and each food
contains M kinds of nutrients.Parameters usedintheinteger
linear programming of RCM are defined as below.
aij: the quantity of nutrient i that food j contains;
bi: the minimum required quantity of nutrient i;
cj: the quantity of calories that food j contains;
xj: the quantity of food j;
y: the portion size of a dish in the recipe.
Therefore, the minimum required quantity of nutrient i
based on the requirement of low calories can be met. The
problem can be formulated as linear programming model in
the following:
Minimize:
𝐟(𝐱) = c x
Subject to:
a x ≥ b , i = 1,2, … , m
For users, the ingredients of the three macro-nutrients in
each dish must be greater than or equal to the minimum
nutrition requirements. Users can decide the servings of a
dish in a recipe as the following formula: xj ≤ q, q = 1, 2,…, n,
where n is a constant [1,2,7].

For the experiment, the inherent food intakeoftheyoungage
subjective are inquiredand recorded for one monthtogether
with the amounts of carbohydrate, fat, protein, and calories,
which are converted from the subject’s food intake, are also
recorded. Then, they are comuted with the computational
model to recommend the dinner recipe to the subjects based
on their required three macro-nutrients by using linear
programming. It can get the best suitable dinner recipes that
contain the similar required three macronutrientsofsubject.
Therefore, we show that by comparing the actual required
nutrients of the subjects and the nutrients generated by the
system using linearprogramming.Accordingtoexperimental
result, the proposed system can recommend the most
suitable dinner recipes with the nearest three macro
nutrients that are required by the subject. The comparison
results of the three macro-nutrients, protein, fat and
carbohydrate of the first age (yound) with the system body
weight management system is depicted in Figure 3 to
Figure5.

the curve name “fat” for fat, the curve name “carb” for
carbohydrate, the curve name “req” for nutrient or food
requirement, and a word "compute"beforethecurvename,it
indicates our solution for a computational diet control.
Fig.4. Fat intake by the first person
According to the young age subject's required nutrients (i.e.
the curves req_pro, req_fat and req_carb in the Figure 4.3 to
Figure 4.5) are set to protein 15% of thetotalenergy,fat30%
of the total energy and carbohydrate 55% of the total energy.
Our system achieved that protein 16.44% of the total energy,
fat 35.50 % of the total energy and carbohydrate 61.97 % of
the total energy. As an average, our system is different only
