Classification of leukoplakia using BICC features and RBFNN

Leukoplakia is the most common Potentially malignant disorder of the oral mucosa. Tobacco consumption has been found to be the main causative agent. Due to its high risk for malignant transformation, appropriate diagnosis and proper treatment planning become mandatory. Many other white lesions appearing in the oral mucosa resemble leukoplakia. Diagnosis by exclusion is preferred by the pathologists. As an alternative to routine histopathological investigation, image analysis techniques of extracted features from the lesional micosopic images can be done.

Extraction, optimisation and dyeing of silk yarn using natural dye from cosmos sp

The use of natural dye decreased in last few decades due to the discovery of synthetic dye in nineteenth century. Recently, non toxic, environment friendly natural dye started receiving much attention in order to avoid hazardous petrochemical raw materials which involve in synthetic dye production and also its non biodegradable effluent. In this study, extraction of a natural dye from Cosmos sp flower was optimised. Pretreated silk yarn was dyed with aqueous extract of the dye.

A proposal of simulation of wheat grain productivity by nitrogen and meteorological elements

The development of efficient simulation models can facilitate the crop planning and the crop predictability analysis. The objective of the study is to propose a simulation model of wheat grain productivity by the nitrogen supply management with variables related to the plant and the meteorological elements, in high succession systems and reduced N-residual release. In the study, two experiments were conducted in 2013, 2014 and 2015, one to quantify the biomass productivity and another one to stablish grain productivity.

Encompassing environmental needs into csr and its implications

Synchronous primary papillary carcinoma thyroid with ductal carcinoma breast: a rare case report

A 50 year old female admitted to R L jalappa Hospital, kolar, presented with synchronous primary tumours of the thyroid and breast. Pathological examination of a tissue sample following biopsy identified papillary carcinoma of the thyroid and invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast to provide a definitive diagnosis of synchronous primary tumors. The patient was healthy prior to diagnosis and the family history was non contributory. Upon admission, the size of the primary tumour biopsied, pathological diagnosis was an invasive carcinoma of the breast.

The new focus of development theory: energy and solar power

The theory of development would have almost seemed to have lost its identity due to globalization. Several scholars from public administration and economics have stated that from now on the world is ONE and that the separation between the developed world and the developing countries lacks theoretical foundation. All countries strive for economic growth and all nations search political stability in one way or another, but typically by means of legal-rational authority. However, the new focus of development theory in the 21st century must be decarbonisation.

New trends and innovations in higher education

Higher education is today recognized as most important for economic and social development of the country. Higher education institutions have the greater responsibility for equipping individuals with advanced knowledge and skills required for positions of responsibility in public and private sectors such as business, and other professions (Mishra ,2006). Developing countries are left with a formidable task of expanding their higher education systems and improving quality, all within continuing budgetary constraints (Singh, 2015).

Analysis of construction cost and time overrun factors for high rise buildings

In construction industries achievement of the time and cost objectives is a major problem in spite of availability of control techniques and project control software’s. Research in the field of going on to identify causes of cost and time overruns. Now a days people are concentrating on the factors affecting the cost and time while construction of a project so that it will make ease to practitioner to have complete control over the project.
