Objective: To analysis different techniques and approaches for sentiment analysis to know the user opinion about a product or event or service that helps to improve an organization.
Findings: In an emerging network every company wants to know users opinion about their product or service. Each and every user has different views about the product or service and their views are expressed through reviews. The analysis of such opinion from different users plays an important role in the growth of a company. The opinions are expressed through reviews in the natural language. Sentiment analysis is a process used to identify emotions, opinions and evaluations and it also predict the orientation of sentiment whether the sentiment is positive, neutral or negative opinion based on the words or sentences expressed in the reviews. Sentiment analysis is otherwise called as opinion mining. In this paper various techniques and approaches for sentiment analysis are analysed and finally compared their effectiveness through parameters like accuracy, precision, recall and F-measure values.
Results: In this paper various techniques for sentiment analysis techniques are compared through parameters to prove unsupervised approach at aspect level for sentiment analysis is better than other techniques.
Application/Improvements: The finding of this work shows that unsupervised approach at aspect level for sentiment analysis is better than other techniques.

The coumarin-3-carboxylate prepared by known Knovengeal condensation. The coumarin-3-carbohydrazide prepared by reaction between formed carboxylate derivative with Hydrazine hydrate. The condensation of coumarin-3-carbohydrazide (CD-3) with phenylisothiocynate gives coumarin-3-carbo-N-phenylthiosemicarbazide (CD-4). The cyclization of CD-4 under different reaction conditions gives 1, 3, 4-oxadiazole, 1,3,4- thiadiazole, 1,2,4-triazole, thiazolidinone and thiopyrimidone. The synthesized compounds were charectarized by spectral analysis (IR, 1HNMR, Mass). All the compounds were screened for their Antiinflammatory, Analgesic and Antituberculosis activity. The disc diffusion method was used for Antituberculosis activity. The MIC was determined by the micro broth dilution method using Mueller-Hinton broth. The Analgesic activity was performed by Acetic acid induced method. The Antiinflammatory activity was performed by Carrageenan induced paw edema method.Keywords

The present paper deals with evaluation of anti-anxiety activity of extract of Cyndon dactylon linn (200mg/kg and 400mg/kg P.O) on male mice using various paradigms of anxiety Cynodon dactylon commonly known as Durva is considered as a sacred herb by the Hindus and is used in religious rites. It is widely used by the people of India as a traditional medicine for diarrhea, dysentery, catarrhal opthalmia, dropsy, etc. Despite a long tradition of use, systematic phytochemical and pharmacological work has been carried out on this potential plant. Extraction was carried out with soxhlet apparatus using different solvent. Phytochemical screening showed presence alkaloids, tannins, carbohydrates, fixed oils, glycosides, flavanoids in methanolic extract of Cyndon dactylon linn thus, these constituents might be responsible for anxiolytic potential and was subjected to preliminary anti-anxiety screening studies, with a view to ascertain the verity of its traditional use as an anxiolytic.. The anti-anxiety activity was done by using elevated plus maze test, open field test, rotarod test, despair swim test, locomotar activity in rats,and then compared with the standard drug and control. In elevated plus maze, extract ( 200mg/kg and 400mg/kg) had shown a dosedependent increase in time spent and number of entries into open arm compared to control group. The number of central squares, peripheral squares crossed and rearings were stepped up significantly in open field paradigm. The treated groups had shown accession in time spent in light compartment, number of crossings, latency compared to control group in light dark exploration test.The alcoholic extract of Cyndon dactylon possesses significant facilitation of anti-anxiety without affecting motor coordination.Keywords

AADHAR is an Indian Government Project to provide unique identification to each Citizen of India. The objective of the project is to collect all the personal details and the biometric traits from each individual. Biometric traits such as iris, face and fingerprint are being collected for authentication. All the information will be stored in a centralized data repository. Considering about the storage requirement for the biometric data of the entire population of India, approximately 20,218 TB of storage space will be required. Since 10 fingerprint data are stored, fingerprint details will take most of the space. In this paper, the storage requirement for the biometric data in the AADHAR project is analyzed and a method is proposed to reduce the storage by cropping the original biometric image before storing. This method can reduce the storage space of the biometric data drastically. All the measurements given in this paper are approximate only.Keywords

Objectives: The main objective of method is to optimize the utilization of pseudonym resources and improve the privacy in VANET.
Methods: There are different techniques based on pseudonyms used to improve privacy in VANET. One of such method utilizes minimum spanning tree algorithm and entropy based pseudonym shuffling process to improve the privacy with minimum transmission loss.
Findings: The anonymity through pseudonym techniques in VANET is one of the major responsibilities to degrade the transmission performance. The transmission cost of pseudonym is not considered during pseudonym distribution to Road Side Units (RSU). Therefore, an effective pseudonym management system is required for minimizing transmission cost of pseudonyms and increasing privacy.
Application/Improvements: To overcome transmission cost of pseudonyms, Esau-Williams (EW) algorithm and entropy based pseudonym shuffling process are introduced for anonymity.

Aim: To identify the suitable roofing pattern for dairy cattle in North East Zone of Tamil Nadu, India, based on micro climatic conditions.Materials and Methods: Initially, survey was conducted to identify and categorize the major housing patterns existing in the region for further detailed investigation. In total, 30 farmers/farms consisting of five housing types with six replicates were selected. Temperature and temperature humidity index (THI) were recorded using the maximum-minimum thermometer and digital thermo-hygrometers. The study was conducted for 1 year covering four seasons namely South West monsoon (June-August), North East monsoon (September-November), cold season (December-February), and summer season (April-May). The data were statistically analyzed using statistical package SPSS 17.
Results: Animal shelters with cement sheets recorded the highest temperature (26.71±1.13°C) and THI (77.23±1.76) at 8.00 am, whereas the lowest temperature (24.83±1.17°C) and THI (74.54±1.72) were recorded in the thatched shed. There was significant difference (p<0.01) in temperature and THI at 8.00 am during South West monsoon and North East monsoon seasons between the housing types. During cold and summer seasons, there was no significant difference (p≥0.05) in the environmental variables among various shelter systems.
Conclusion: Thatched housing is found to be the suitable one with respect to the climatic variables, followed by tile roof and metal roof. The cement sheet roofed housing is found to be the most unsuitable one in the region for dairy cattle.

The study was aimed at evaluating the antitumor and antioxidant activities of ethanol extract of Pseudarthria viscida (Family: Fabaceae) against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC)-bearing Swiss albino mice. The ethanol extract of Pseudarthria viscida (EEPV) was administered at the doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg in mice for 14 days after 24 h of tumor inoculation. The effect of EEPV on the growth of transplantable murine tumor, life span of EAC bearing mice, hematological profile and liver biochemical parameters were estimated. Treatment with EEPV decreased the tumor volume and viable cell count thereby increasing the life span of EAC bearing mice and brought back the hematological parameter more or less normal level. The effect of EEPV decreases the level of lipid peroxidation and protein content and significantly increased the level of antioxidant enzymes such as Catalase (CAT), Glutathione (GSH) and Superoxide dismutase (SOD). These observations are suggestive of the protective effect of EEPV against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC).

The litter traits of Large White Yorkshire crosses viz. LWY×desi (50% LWY, n=59) and LWY x 50% LWY (75% LWY, n=70) in three consecutive generations (F1, F2 and F3) were recorded. The data were analysed on both the genetic groups in three generations for reproductive traits viz. litter size at birth, litter size at weaning, litter weight at birth and litter weight at weaning. The overall mean litter size at birth and weaning were 5.26±0.22 and 4.86±0.20 respectively. The litter size at birth did not vary significantly between F2 and F3 while both differed significantly (P<0.01) with F1.Keywords

A simple, selective and rapid reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of Amlodipine Besylate and Nebivolol Hydrochloride from their tablet formulation. The method is carried out on a nucleosil C18 (25 cm×4.6 mm) column with the mobile phase consisting of 0.01 M tetra butyl ammonium hydrogen sulphate: acetonitrile (60:40 v/v) and adjusted the pH to 3.0 by using trimethyl amine, at the flow rate of 1.0 ml min-1. Detection is performed at 264 nm. The retention time of Amlodipine Besylate and Nebivolol Hydrochloride was 2.55 and 5.44 min respectively. The developed method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision, solution stability, robustness, limit of detection, and limit of quantification. The proposed method can be used for routine analysis of drugs in combined dosage forms.Keywords

A simple, precise, accurate and rapid HPLC method has been developed, and validated for the determination of Aspirin, Atorvastatin and Pioglitazone simultaneously, in combined dosage form. Acetonitrile and phosphate buffer with pH 3.5 (40%:60% v/v) is used as the mobile phase, 261nm is the detection wavelength for this study. The applicability of the method for simultaneous determination of Aspirin, Atorvastatin and Pioglitazone was verified by the determination of these compounds in marketed tablets. Results of the analysis were validated statistically, and by recovery studies (98.29-101.12%). The recovery and RSD values within the limits given in ICH guide lines method developments indicates that the suitability of proposed methods for the routine determination of these compounds in tablets. The validation parameters: linearity (r>0.996), sensitivity (LOD (1.5-0.7×10-4 mg ml-1 and LOQ%x10-4-1.05×10-4), accuracy (recoveries:98.29-101.12%)and reproducibility were found to satisfactory. The proposed method can be successfully used to determine the drug contents of marketed formulation.Keywords

Random numbers play an important and primary role in the use of Cryptography techniques in real time applications. The cryptographic techniques can be easily compromised if the key can be easily guessed. Therefore it is important that the keys are in random and unpredictable in nature. The operating system uses the random numbers to mask passwords and to offer salt and session identifiers. This paper introduces a new software based pseudo random number generation method based on the eye brightness response formula. This function provides a significant change in sensation for minimum required change in signal intensity. The randomness tests are performed to confirm the randomness of the generated random numbers.Keywords

Coffee is an important beverage crop in India. The soil-borne pathogen, Rhizoctonia solani Khun is known to cause collar rot of coffee seedlings in the nursery itself and accounts for 10-25% mortality under conducive environmental conditions. This paper presents the efficacy of various microbial antagonists used in the form of biocapsules for management of coffee collar rot. Among the various antagonists used, Bacillus subtilis resulted in the maximum reduction of collar rot incidence compared to Trichoderma harzianum and Pseudomonas fluorescens.Keywords
