Grey Wolf Optimizer
Opis:
In this paper, an automatic voltage regulator (AVR) embedded with fractional order PID (FOPID) is employed for the alternator terminal voltage control. A novel meta-heuristic technique, a modified version of grey wolf optimizer (mGWO) is proposed to design and optimize the FOPID AVR system. The parameters of FOPID, namely, proportional gain (ΚP), the integral gain ( ΚI), the derivative gain ( ΚD), λ and μ have been optimally tuned with the proposed mGWO technique using a novel fitness function. The initial values of the ΚP, ΚI , and ΚD of the FOPID controller are obtained using Ziegler-Nichols (ZN) method, whereas the initial values of λ and μ have been chosen as arbitrary values. The proposed algorithm offers more benefits such as easy implementation, fast convergence characteristics, and excellent computational ability for the optimization of functions with more than three variables. Additionally, the hasty tuning of FOPID controller parameters gives a high-quality result, and the proposed controller also improves the robustness of the system during uncertainties in the parameters. The quality of the simulated result of the proposed controller has been validatedby other state-of-the-art techniques in the literature.

Opis:
Wind results from the air in motion. Air in motion arises from a pressure gradient. Wind direction and wind speed are two characteristics of the wind, whose inter-relationships may give us an insight into the prevailing weather condition at a particular place. This study examines the trend analysis of the wind direction and wind speed pattern of Srinagar Garhwal Valley, Uttarakhand. The average wind speed in Srinagar Valley is 2.923± 1.232 m/s. As it is seen the most frequent wind in Srinagar Garhwal has a speed from 0.50 to 2.10 m/s in the northwest direction.

Opis:
The conservation of rainwater and augmentation of groundwater reserve is necessary to meet the increased water demands. Precipitation occurring in the smart cities need to be understood for a better water management action plan. Therefore, monotonic precipitation trend analysis was performed for eight smart cities drawn from six monsoon homogeneous regions across India. The precipitation data were investigated for trends using the modified Mann–Kendall (MMK) test and Sen’s slope estimator at annual, seasonal and monthly scales. The trend analysis was carried out over 118 years (from 1901 to 2018) at 95% significance level. The Dehradun city (Northern Himalayan region) showed a significant increasing annual precipitation trend (Z = +3.22). Indore and Bhopal cities from West Central region showed significant increasing annual trend (Z = +2.01) and non-significant decreasing annual trend respectively. Although, Vadodara and Jaipur are lying in the same Northwest region, the trends are opposite in nature. Jaipur city showed a significant increasing annual pre-monsoon trend (Z = +2.44). The winter rainfall in the city of Vadodara is showing a significant decreasing trend (Z = –2.16). The pre-monsoon rainfall in Bhubaneswar (Central Northeast region) and monsoon precipitation in Trivandrum (Peninsular region) are showing significant increasing (Z = +2.56) and decreasing (Z = –2.71) trends, respectively. A non-significant decreasing trend was seen in Guwahati city (Northeast region). The eight smart cities selected for investigation are not truly representing the entire country. However, the study is clearly pointing towards the regional disparity existing in the coun-try. These findings will be helpful for water managers and policymakers in these regions for better water management.

Introduction and aim. With the third wave of COVID-19 hitting the country, there is an urgent need to systematically document the clinical-epidemiological and vaccination details of the patients to formulate evidence-based decisions. So, this study was planned to describe the profile of patients attending the flu clinic of a tertiary care hospital in eastern India. Material and methods. This hospital-based cross-sectional study was done for 6 weeks (Jan-Feb 2022) among 623 patients using a pre-tested, structured questionnaire related to COVID-19. An unadjusted odds ratio was calculated and statistical significance was attributed to a p-value <0.05. Results. Out of 623 patients, almost 90% of the patients were vaccinated against COVID-19 with at least one dose of any vaccine. Cough (57.8%) was the most common complaint. Patients aged > 60 years and those having one or more than one comorbidity suffered from moderate-severe COVID-19 infection when compared to their counterparts (p<0.001). Also, 2.1% of fully vaccinated, 3.8% of one dose vaccinated and 10.9% of unvaccinated patients suffered from moderate-severe COVID-19. Conclusion. During the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, a smaller number of elderlies compared to the previous two waves were affected indicating age shifting. The severity of COVID-19 was less among vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated highlighting the importance of COVID-19 vaccination.

Opis:
Development is the need for any country’s progress but not at the cost of livelihood of future generations, says the United Nations World Summit on Sustainable Development. Industries are the bread and butter for our modern evolved country, and surplus hazardous waste that comes out due to it, is continuous and unavoidable. Apart from all the measures for sustainable use of resources, it’s the time we must look into better waste management systems since it is potentially harmful to environment and human health if not treated well. Presently India indicates a clear picture of concern over the issue through its strict rules and regulations for the industries. Hazardous waste treatment and disposal requires better strategies to choose the most convenient and green techniques. This paper gives an insight on the various hazardous wastes being generated from industries, nature and characteristics of waste, importance of waste management, churn out various steps to be taken to design and plan the models methods, any changes towards the regulations related to hazardous waste disposal and impact on environment and health,. It also takes a dip into the Indian industrial scenario towards cheap and viable methods of disposal as a step towards sustainable development.

Magnetic field dependence of critical current density $(J_{c})$ of $ErBa_2Cu_3O_y$ thick film "Er-123" and melt textured $GdBa_2Cu_3O_y$ bulk "Gd-123" at liquid nitrogen temperature is reported. Gd-123 exhibits a usual peak effect at magnetic fields around 2 T, while $J_{c}$ of the Er-123 thick film continuously decreases with increasing field. The model of thermally activated flux motion was adopted to fit the critical current density of both Gd-123 and Er-123 materials. It was found that the critical current density of both types of the high $T_{c}$ materials could be modeled by the model of thermally activated flux motion utilizing a combination of two functions; one increasing and another one decreasing with field.

Magnetic field dependence of critical current density $(J_{c})$ of bulk MgB₂ material at 20 K is reported. The selected sintered MgB₂ materials contained various amounts of silver. The silver added samples possess always a higher critical current density than the silver free ones. The critical current density increased with silver content and continuously decreased with increase of magnetic field. Further, the normalized volume pinning force density,$ f_{p}=F_{p}//F_{p,max}$, versus reduced field $h = H_{a}// H_{irr}$ for silver free and silver added samples suggested that grain boundary pinning is dominant. In essence, the model of thermal activated flux motion was successfully applied to fit the critical current density of the MgB₂ materials.

Opis:
Participatory monitoring allows communities to understand the use and management of local water resources and at the same time develop a sense of ownership of environmental information. The data generated through participatory monitoring of stream flow and rainfall generate evidences to corroborate local people’s experiences with changing water resources patterns. In this study we evaluate the potential of participatory monitoring of hydrological variables to improve scarce water supply utilization in agriculture. The case study site is the Mustang district in Nepal, which is located in the Upper Kaligandaki River Basin in the Himalayas with unique and complex geographical and climatic features. This region is characterized by a semi-arid climate with total annual precipitation of less than 300 mm. Water supply, agricultural land, and livestock grazing are the key ecosystem services that underpin livelihood security of the local population, particularly socio-economically vulnerable groups. An analysis of the measured stream flow data indicate that annual flow of water in the stream can meet the current crop irrigation water needs for the agricultural land of the research site. The data provide local farmers a new way of understanding local water needs. Participatory monitoring would contribute to an optimization of the use of ecosystem services to support economic development and livelihood improvement.

Opis:
In order to diagnose a range of cardiac conditions, it is important to conduct an accurate evaluation of eitherphonocardiogram (PCG)and electrocardiogram (ECG) data. Artificial intelligence and machine learning-based computer-assisted diagnostics are becoming increasingly commonplace in modern medicine, assisting clinicians in making life-or-death decisions. The requirement for an enormous amount of informationfor training to establish the framework for a deeplearning-based technique is an empirical challenge in the field of medicine. This increases the riskof personal information being misused. As a direct result of this issue, there has been an explosion in the study of methods for creating synthetic patient data. Researchers have attempted to generate synthetic ECG or PCG readings. To balance the dataset, ECG data were first created on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia database using LS GAN and Cycle GAN. Next, using VGGNet, studies were conducted to classify arrhythmias for the synthesized ECG signals. The synthesized signals performed well and resembled the original signal and the obtained precision of 91.20%, recall of 89.52% and an F1 scoreof 90.35%.
W celu zdiagnozowania szeregu chorób serca, istotne jest przeprowadzenie dokładnej oceny danych z fonokardiogramu (PCG)i elektrokardiogram (EKG). Sztuczna inteligencja i diagnostyka wspomagana komputerowo, oparta na uczeniu maszynowym stają sięcoraz bardziej powszechne we współczesnej medycynie, pomagając klinicystom w podejmowaniu krytycznych decyzji. Z kolei, Wymóg ogromnej ilości informacjido trenowania, w celu ustalenia platformy (ang. framework) techniki, opartej na głębokim uczeniu stanowi empiryczne wyzwanie w obszarze medycyny. Zwiększa to ryzyko niewłaściwego wykorzystania danych osobowych. Bezpośrednim skutkiem tego problemu był gwałtowny rozwój badań nad metodami tworzenia syntetycznych danych pacjentów. Badacze podjęli próbę wygenerowania syntetycznych odczytów diagramów EKG lub PCG. Stąd, w celu zrównoważenia zbioru danych, w pierwszej kolejności utworzono dane EKG w bazie danych arytmii MIT-BIH przy użyciu struktur sieci generatywnych LSGAN i CycleGAN. Następnie, wykorzystując strukturę sieci VGGNet, przeprowadzono badania, mające na celu klasyfikację arytmii na potrzeby syntetyzowanych sygnałów EKG. Dla wygenerowanych sygnałów, przypominających sygnał oryginalny uzyskano dobre rezultaty. Należy podkreślić,że uzyskana dokładność wynosiła 91,20%, powtarzalność 89,52% i wynik F1 –odpowiednio 90,35%.

Introduction and aim. Anemia remains a leading contributor to years lived with disability (YLDs), being responsible for 50.3 million (5.82%) YLDs worldwide and 19.3 million (12.03%) YLDs in India, respectively. Results of the National Family Health Survey 2019-2021 (NFHS-5) suggest a high burden of anemia in India among women of reproductive age and children aged 6-59 months at the national level (57%, 67.1%), and in the state of Bihar, India (63.5%, 69.4%). Iron deficiency is the leading cause, accounting for more than half the cases. Anemia bodes harmful implications for both the mother and child, with long-lasting consequences for the latter. Anemia control programs have yielded little benefit despite efforts stretching over five decades. This narrative review aims to highlight the burden of anemia and the probable factors behind it among under-5 children and women of reproductive age in the Indian state of Bihar. Material and methods. The paper is a narrative review. The following databases were used to search and select literature: PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. In addition, the websites of relevant government departments and national health programs were searched for pertinent material. Analysis of the literature. A multitude of reasons seem to be behind the unabated high prevalence in Bihar: low socioeconomic status, gender disparities, traditional customs and practices, food insecurity, lack of diverse diets, poor consumption, and no adherence to iron and folic acid (IFA) supplements, groundwater contamination with arsenic and fluoride, and supply chain mismanagement, all playing roles of varying degree. Conclusion. An all-encompassing approach and not merely the provision of IFA supplements are necessary to unravel the intricate web of factors that lead to anemia.

Opis:
The music industry has come a long way since its inception. Music producers have also adhered to modern technology to infuse life into their creations. Systems capable of separating sounds based on sources especially vocals from songs have always been a necessity which has gained attention from researchers as well. The challenge of vocal separation elevates even more in the case of the multi‐instrument environment. It is essential for a system to be first able to detect that whether a piece of music contains vocals or not prior to attempting source separation. It is also very much challenging to perform source separation from audio which is contaminated with noise. In this paper, such a system is proposed being tested on a database of more than 99 hours of instrumentals and songs. Experiments were performed with both noise free as well as noisy audio clips. Using line spectral frequency‐based features, we have obtained the highest accuracies of 99.78% and 99.34% (noise free and noisy scenario respectively) from among six different classifiers, viz. BayesNet, Support Vector Machine, Multi Layer Perceptron, LibLinear, Simple Logistic and Decision Table.

Opis:
Due to recent developments in the field of high-power and medium-voltage, the multilevel inverter has raised to such an extent owing to some of its amazing facts regarding harmonic spectrum, ease in control, reduced electromagnetic interference (EMI), filterless circuit, stress on power switches, common-mode voltage. This paper well describes a novel architecture of a single-phase multilevel inverter using a lesser number of overall components, especially the power switches. The proposed topology is generalized in the structure that can generate any number of voltage steps. A 7-level structure of the proposed topology is explained and is elaborately discussed. Simulation is carried out in MATLAB and corresponding experimental results verify the existence of the proposed multilevel inverter. The real-time experimental results were presented and are well verified by the simulation results for 7-level as well for 13-level across RL-Load. The nature of load current is also indicated as per the nature of load voltage. Nevertheless, the topology is further compared with some of the recent literature and found superior in each respect.

Material and methods. Two hundred and thirty seven patients presenting with ED at andrology OPD were evaluated for ED by a self administered IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function) questionnaire. Patients were systematically randomized by computer generated random table into two groups groups namely, group A: Tadalafil only group, group B: combination of Tadalafil + Pentoxifylline. All the patients were re-assessed by IIEF-5 questionnaire after 8 weeks of medical therapy. Statistical analysis was performed using student’s unpaired t-test, paired t-test, chi square test. pvalue < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results. Two hundred and thirty seven patients were included in the present study, in group A: 92 patients (78.6%) showed improvement in their IIEF score after 8 weeks of tadalafil treatment. While in group B, overall 104 patients(86.6%) showed improvement after combination of Tadalafil and Pentoxifylline. There was a statistically significant difference of percentage change in IIEF score was seen in group B (group A 90.7±15.2%, group B 95.6±13.4%; p value – 0.014). We found this difference even more statistically significant in patients with severe ED (group A 72.7±47.2%, group B 132.3±54.3%; p value – 0.000). There was no significant difference in between the two groups with regards to occurrence of side effects. Conclusions. Both tadalafil and combination of Tadalafil + Pentoxifylline improve erectile function in patients of ED. Patients with severe ED showed much significant improvement in erectile function with combination therapy.

Opis:
The complex relationship between topography and precipitation in mountainous regions such as Himalayas is evident from the pattern of rainfall distribution. The variation in precipitation with altitude is controlled by mean height of clouds and decrease in water vapours with altitude. Spatially distributed measurements of precipitation have gained renewed interest in connection with climate change impact studies. Precipitation values are usually available from a limited number of gauge stations and their spatial estimates can be obtained by interpolation techniques such as Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW), Kriging and Spline. In the present study, precipitation-elevation relationship can be established using Digital Elevation Model (DEM) (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer-ASTER, 30m resolution), Spline interpolation technique in Geographical Information System (GIS) environment and point data from various gauge stations spread over the Satluj River Basin. Changes of spatial distribution of precipitation with elevation show a distinct shift. Bhakra Dam (5854.60 mm) to Rampur (4451.10 mm), there is continuous variation in rainfall with increase in altitude. But beyond Rampur, variation is very high. Swarghat shows exceptional rainfall (8031.76 mm), may be due to position of mountains and their orographic effects. Maximum rainfall was observed in the lower Himalayas i.e. Shiwalik range. Negligible rainfall was observed beyond Kaza (470 mm), above the elevation of around 3756 m. The general trend of rainfall exhibits that the lower and middle parts experience good rainfall whereas the upper part experiences less rainfall. Such spatial and temporal distribution of rainfall with elevation provides an important platform for hydrologic analysis, planning and management of water resources.
