Effect of Partial Replacement of Sand by Mild Steel Filings in Concrete

Metals waste materials create serious environmental problems, mainly owing to the inconsistency of the waste streams. Mild steel filings are very small pieces of steel that look like a steel fiber. They are very often used in science demonstrations to show the direction of a magnetic field. The purpose of this project is to evaluate the possibility of using mild steel filings as one of the components of concrete mix. 

Five different percentage of mild steel filing were added to concrete mix to measure the variation which may be obtained in compression and tensile strength of concrete after 7 & 28 days. A number of standard cubes and cylinders were casted and tested in this study using 0% (control), 10%,15%, 20% and 25% of mild steel filing in concrete mix. 

Concrete cubes of size 150mm x150mm x 150mm and cylinders will be prepared and tested for compressive strength and tensile strength respectively after 7 and 28 days. A result data obtained has been analyzed and compared with a control specimen. Result data clearly shows percentage increase in 7 and 28 days compressive strength and flexural strength.

Image Retrieval for Minority Costume by using Color Histogram and Edge orientation (EO) Histogram Technique

It is very significant to know the different minority costumes which are vanishing now a day which is used for minority culture protection and inheritance. To get the exact results for image retrieval there is need of a novel image feature representation method which is used to show the rich information of minority costume image. In this implementation first image is divided into image sub-blocks and then from that image calculate both color histogram as well as edge orientation histogram separately. 

The final feature used for minority costume image retrieval is fusion or integration of both color histogram and edge orientation histogram. At last improved Canberra distance is calculated for the input query image and retrieved output image. For the performance analysis there is use of self-build minority costume image dataset. MATLAB analysis results show that integrated technique of image retrieval will give outperforming results for characteristics such as color, texture, shape and spatial information, in comparison to existing technique proposed work will give higher and stable retrieval accuracy.

Deep Learning Techniques, Applications and Challenges: An Assessment

Deep learning is an emerging research area in machine learning and pattern recognition field. Deep learning refers to machine learning techniques that use supervised or unsupervised strategies to automatically learn hierarchical representations in deep architectures for classification. The objective is to discover more abstract features in the higher levels of the representation, by using neural networks which easily separates the various explanatory factors in the data. In the recent years it has attracted much attention due to its state-of-the-art performance in diverse areas like object perception, speech recognition, computer vision, collaborative filtering and natural language processing. 

As the data keeps getting bigger, deep learning is coming to play a key role in providing big data predictive analytics solutions. This paper presents a brief overview of deep learning, techniques, current research efforts and the challenges involved in it.

Retrieval Process in Cloud Computing: An Assessment

This paper presents the survey on data storage and retrieval in cloud computing. In this paper the study on scope and security issues related to data storage and information retrieval in cloud computing is done. Data storage and retrieval with data security is typical issue in today's scenario. The main objective of cloud computing is to enables users with limited computational resources to outsource their large computation workloads to the cloud. 

The integrity and confidentiality of the data uploaded by the user is ensured doubly by not only encrypting it but also providing access to the data only on successful authentication. In this paper the different security problems existing in the cloud was identified and solutions for the same have suggested.

Significance of Phase Change Materials in Building Construction

Buildings are designed for the sole purpose of maintaining conducive living standards for the occupants. Electrical energy consumption varies significantly during the day and night according to the demand by the industrial, commercial and residential activities. PCMs are regarded as a possible solution for reducing the energy consumption of buildings. These are the materials that could store a large amount of energy in the form of latent heat at a constant temperature without any fluctuations or variations in the temperature. 

Buildings which have large mass will react slowly to changes in heating and cooling demands. This research is done to study the temperature fluctuations at 3 different layers of the model walls (outer face, inner face, intermediate face) throughout the day. The fluctuation of temperature taking 3 different PCMs viz. HS29, HS24 and HS34 are studied. For temperature readings, Arduino Nano processor is used with LM35 temperature sensors connected to the central IC.

Smart Speaker using Raspberry Pi

As the software systems are getting more and more complex each day, the ability of the user to put up with this complexity is reducing. An elegant solution to deal with this issue is to build a personal assistant agent which is capable of determining user's habits, preferences and intentions and helping them accordingly. This work discusses on developing a "Smart Speaker using Raspberry Pi". The work aims at the development of a personal voice assistant which can assist users in performing their personal and professional tasks using speech commands and provide more interactive and user-friendly experience. 

The assistant also helps in controlling home appliances and IoT devices and reduce the workload of the user. The major element of the Smart Speaker is the Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi collects speech input and interprets it to manage certain tasks.
