This study demonstrates the utility of using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology and DNA analysis to identify and analyze closely related insect species and populations. The researchers sequenced DNA from two mitochondrial genes and a nuclear gene from individuals of two closely related fly species, Bactrocera philippinensis and B. occipitalis. They obtained overlapping sequences from these genes that could be assembled into full gene sequences.

This document summarizes a method for detecting quantitative trait loci (QTL) in the presence of outliers or phenotypic contamination. It describes the standard interval mapping approach, which uses likelihood ratio tests to identify QTL within intervals between genetic markers. However, this approach is not robust to outliers. The proposed method aims to make interval mapping more robust by maximizing a β-likelihood function using an EM-like algorithm. Simulation studies show the proposed method significantly outperforms standard interval mapping when outliers are present, while maintaining similar performance when data is clean. The document provides background on QTL mapping and defines genetic models used in interval mapping.

This document presents a study that uses linear regression to predict university freshmen's academic performance (GPA) based on their scores on the Joint Matriculation Examination (JME). The study finds a weak positive correlation (R=0.137) between GPA and JME scores, with the regression model only explaining 1.9% of variability in GPA. Statistical tests show no significant relationship between JME score and university GPA (p>0.05). The study concludes that JME score is not a strong predictor of freshmen academic performance.
This document describes a school bus tracking and security system that uses face recognition, GPS, and notification technologies.

This document discusses Gandhi's concept of trusteeship as an alternative economic system. It summarizes that Gandhi did not distinguish between economics and ethics, and based trusteeship on religious ideas like non-possession and truth as well as Western ideas like stewardship. Trusteeship aimed to persuade wealthy property owners to hold wealth in trust for the benefit of society rather than personal gain. It was meant as a non-violent alternative to capitalism and communism that eliminated class conflict through cooperation and trust between rich and poor. The document provides background on the philosophical and religious influences on Gandhi's views before explaining the key aspects of his theory of trusteeship.
Impacts of a New Spatial Variable on a Black Hole Metric SolutionIJSRED
This document discusses the impacts of introducing a new spatial variable in black hole metrics. It begins by summarizing Einstein and Rosen's 1935 paper which introduced a variable ρ = r - 2M in the Schwarzschild metric to remove the singularity. The document then introduces a similar new variable p = r - 2√M and analyzes how this impacts the Schwarzschild metric. Specifically, it notes that this new variable allows for negative radii values and multiple asymptotic regions beyond just two, introducing concepts of probability and imaginary spatial coordinates. Overall, the document explores how different mathematical variables can impact theoretical physics concepts like wormholes.

Functions of Forensic Engineering Investigator in IndiaIJSRED
Forensic engineering involves applying engineering principles and methodologies to answer legal questions, especially regarding accidents and failures. A forensic engineer investigates failures through failure analysis and root cause analysis to determine how and why something failed. The engineer must be familiar with relevant codes and standards, understand eyewitness testimony, apply the scientific method to reconstruct events, and report findings clearly to assist courts. A forensic engineering investigation follows the scientific method to methodically analyze evidence and test hypotheses to determine the cause and circumstances of a failure or accident.
Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network
A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.
