Abstract

Convolutional Neural Networks and Deep Learning have revolutionized every field since their inception. Agriculture has also been reaping the fruits of developments in mentioned fields. Technology is being revolutionized to increase yield, save water wastage, take care of diseased weeds, and also increase the profit of farmers. Grapes are among the highest profit-yielding and important fruit related to the juice industry. Pakistan being an agricultural country, can widely benefit by cultivating and improving grapes per hectare yield. The biggest challenge in harvesting grapes to date is to detect their cluster successfully; many approaches tend to answer this problem by harvest and sort technique where the foreign objects are separated later from grapes after harvesting them using an automatic harvester. Currently available systems are trained on data that is from developed or grape-producing countries, thus showing data biases when used at any new location thus it gives rise to a need of creating a dataset from scratch to verify the results of research. Grape is available in different sizes, colors, seed sizes, and shapes which makes its detection, through simple Computer vision, even more challenging. This research addresses this issue by bringing the solution to this problem by using CNN and Neural Networks using the newly created dataset from local farms as the other research and the methods used don’t address issues faced locally by the farmers. YOLO has been selected to be trained on the locally collected dataset of grapes.

Abstract

Synchronization of chaotic systems by means of the combination of drive‐response/master–slave systems have been widely utilized. In the current study, the author introduces the concept of internal synchronization (IS) that is based on the synchronization within the system among the subsystems. Furthermore, the two types of Internal Multi‐Switching Synchronization (IMSS): the first one based on single error while the other one is based on two errors, have been discussed. In order to demonstrate, the author chooses the Lorenz Chaotic System (LCS) and Lorenz Hyper Chaotic System (LHCS) together with the adaptive sliding mode control (SMC) technique in multi‐switching manner. In addition, the efficiency of the IMSS is illustrated using Mathematica. The computational part is the witness of the achievement of stability of the IS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: To compare the clinical effectiveness of Paracetamol with Ibuprofen as an antipyretic, fever relief and linked discomfort in children. Study Design: Comparative cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital, Abbottabad Pakistan from Apr to Nov 2019. Methodology: Children aged six months to five years, who reported fever between 38-41°C were included. Two temperature groups were developed, i.e., 37.8--38.9ºC and 39-41ºC with baseline temperatures of 38.60±0.56 for Paracetamol-Group and 38.58± 0.56ºC for Ibuprofen-Group. The prescriptions were given over to the parents with clarification about the dose of the medication. The medication had active and placebo forms. Information was gathered until saturation was done. Results: A total of 104 children were taken in the study. Of these, 77(74.08%) were females, and 27(24.96) were males. Comparing Ibuprofen-treated children with Paracetamol-Group, the final result showed that the extent of children's temperature management was greater in the Ibuprofen-Group 37(71%) than in the Paracetamol-Group 34(65%). Conclusion: Doctors, attendants and guardians wishing to use medications to treat children suffering from fever should be encouraged to use Ibuprofen first and to consider the relative risks and advantages of using Ibuprofen in addition to Paracetamol for fever. Comparatively, Ibuprofen is more effective than Paracetamol. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
