Automatic classification of brain tumor is area of concern from last few decades for better perceptive analysis in accurate manner. In this paper an automatic brain tumor classification approach namely probabilistic neural network are proposed with image and data processing techniques. The conventional algorithms which are reported in the literature are not automatic in nature and mainly their processing is based on human inspection. Then after some time a new classification approaches came into existence by overcoming the disadvantages of conventional algorithms namely Operator assisted classification methods which proves impractical for huge data amounts and simultaneously it is non-reproducible. The MR brain tumor images contains the noise like content which is mainly caused by the operator performance while processing and this noise results in highly inaccurate classification analysis. For better accuracy in classification of tumor image artificial intelligent techniques like fuzzy logic and neural networks usage are encouraged these days.

Background: Hypertension (HTN), or high blood pressure (systolic blood pressure >140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure >90 mmHg) is an overwhelming global challenge which ranks third as a cause of disability-adjusted life-year. Hypertension causes 7.1 million premature deaths each year worldwide and accounts for 13% of all deaths globally. There are effective medical therapies for hypertension management; but the problem of non-adherence to medical treatment remains a challenge for the medical professionals and social scientists. The objective of this study is to assess the magnitude of adherence and factors for non adherence related to anti-hypertensive treatments in hypertensive patients visiting Adama Referral Hospital.

Back ground: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of common metabolic disorders that share the phenotype of hyperglycemia. Half century ago hydrochlorothiazide has been associated with a diagnosis of diabetes in hypertension treatment containing hydrochlorothiazide during long term therapy. This explained by association between glucose, potassium, and hydrochlorothiazide induced hyperglycemias and plasma insulin level. The objective of this study was to assess the problem associated with use of hydrochlorothiazide among adult diabetic patient in diabetic clinic of AHMC. Methodology: A cross sectional study was carried out by reviewing patient information sheet and physician diagnosis card with a period from March, 25-May, 28, 2014. Data was collected from patient information sheet and physician diagnosis card by using check list and collected data was analyzing by using SPSS-20.

n this paper we explain the suboptimum channel equalization approach. This approach employ linear transversal filter that we will explain. This filter structure has computational complexity that is linear with the order. This filter is shown in figure 1. Its input is the sequence v k, its output is the estimate of the output sequence Ik. The estimate might be expressed as The estimate I k is quantized to the nearest information symbol. Considerabl e research have been done to optimize the filter coefficients ck. A measure of performance for digital communication system is the average probability of error. In this system this is highly non linear function of ck. As we can see this method is computationally complex.

It is an unquestionable fact that gross domestic saving is one of the most contributing factors of economic growth of a nation. It plays concrete role in fostering investment, production, employment and eventually the economic growth. The present paper endeavors to analyze and exemplifies the contributions of household sector, private corporate sector and public sector in Gross Domestic Savings (GDS) and thus Gross Capital Formation (GCF) of India. The study is based on secondary data from 2000-2013. The statistical tools like Percentage, ANOVA, Correlation and Regression analysis are used for data analysis. The analysis divulges that the maximum contribution to GDS and GCF is made by household sector followed by private corporate sector and then public sector

Objective, of this project was to study the attitudes - viewpoints of social groups with different characteristics such as Race, Age and Education and their relevance to acts of violence in Sports. Methodology, 403 individuals of different age, gender and educational level, of random social, professional and geographical areas were interviewed. a structured questionnaire which consisted of four questions and twenty-one sub-questions was filled in, following a detailed briefing in their area. For the statistical processing of the data simple multivariate analysis was performed (MANOVA) on the subquestions of each question of the questionnaire related to Gender, Age and Educational Level of the participants. In order to detect statistically significant differences simple analysis of variance was performed (ANOVA) and Bonferroni post-ANOVA analysis. Results, as for factors forming violent acts they believe that those are sport management, the athletes and the social situation, while they offer no suggestion for possible ways of preventing/improving the phenomenon.

This paper proposes using “exercises” (articles to spur Socratic dialogue), a pedagogical innovation to foster learning of critical concepts in marketing. Exercises enable students relatively unfamiliar with business and strategic decision making to learn marketing theory by applying concepts to better understand and solve current problems confronting an actual company. By allowing students to apply concepts in specific, feature-rich, real contexts, exercises stimulate critical thinking ability in the best traditions of the Socratic method. Exercises inspire understanding, analysis, and problem solving through reading, reflection, discussion, and application of marketing concepts. Learning from peers by sharing information and applying marketing concepts to generate insights about compelling problems helps enhance student retention of critical ideas.

The effect of UV-C radiation as sanitizer in washing treatment on the quality of minimally processed Fragaria vesca strawberry is presented. Processed strawberries were packaged in thermally sealed polypropylene trays using passive modified atmosphere packaging. During a storage period of 10 days at 4 ºC, quality parameters, functional content, sensory attributes and microbial counts analysis were performed. It was concluded that the use of UV-C radiation in the washing water was effective in reducing the microbial counts, maintaining the antioxidant compounds and the sensorial quality of the product throughout the storage period.

Capitalistic profit motive economy forced traditional agriculture move toward commercialization of agriculture in Bangladesh. However, Bangladeshi traditional peasants are suffering from getting their crop duly prices in commercialized market relations. These peasants are unable to fulfill their basic needs; hence they cannot cross the poverty line. The objectives of the paper are (1) to acquaint readers with the issues and conditions of life that Bangladeshi peasants are facing from crop marketing and to environmental degradation in Bangladesh and (2) to understand the causes and consequences of peasants’ poverty. This paper is written by the authors from their own experience. The paper uses secondary data from different studies conducted in Bangladesh. Peasants’ social organizations, traditional cultures, cultivation technologies and peasant economics (agro economics) are changing and moving toward mechanized capital intensive agriculture that creates inequality and injustice in the society among poor peasants by rich peasants in Bangladesh. Peasant joint family structure is changing to single family. Peasant festivals, customs and cultures are decaying.

Since the adoption of the neoliberal policy in Nigeria in the 1980s, its impact on the human development indices of the citizenry has not been satisfactory as manifested by the unequal income distribution gap between the rich and the poor over the years. Besides, the health conditions of Nigerians have experienced a decline as revealed by the increasing rate of child/infant mortality and maternal mortality which expresses the failure of government reforms in adequately addressing some aspects of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Using secondary sources of data, this paper investigated how government’s implementation of the neoliberal policies had impacted on the healthcare and human development indices of the citizens. It was observed that rather than improve the healthcare situation and human development indices of citizens, the Bretton Woods-authored reforms have rather narrowed opportunities for healthcare and human development in Nigeria. To improve the declining human development indices of citizens, the paper recommends the roll out of a politics of paradise to rein in the poverty and deprivation suffered by many Nigerians and the need for a human-faced approach to economic reforms, among others. The paper concludes that government must revisit the neoliberal reforms package in the country and stamp out the use of ad hoc and discretionary handouts and market-led growth which have failed to engender a trickledown effect on the social realities of Nigerians. Citizen welfare and comfort must guide government’s actions and intentions and should remain the benchmark for assessing the impact of any form of economic or social reforms that it desires to implement in the country.
