Abstract Masonry constructions built with mortar and solid fired clay bricks are subject to: high cement content, excessive water-cement ratio causing problems of mortar shrinkage during curing and differential movements between the brick and mortar caused by movements due to wind or seismic events. Earth movements generate some failures in simple masonry walls and confined masonry in solid brick joints, mainly with failure inclination angles varying from 45 degrees to 50 degrees. The objective of this research work was to estimate the flexural bond strength of the mortar joint and the solid fired clay brick and thus establish design parameters for non-structural masonry in the municipality of Ocanña, Colombia. From the fired clay brick manufacturers, 18 in total, simple random sampling was used to determine the sample size, 4 manufacturers were randomly selected. In addition, the characterization of the solid fired clay brick units was carried out with respect to their compressive strength, initial absorption rate and final absorption, as well as the mortar with respect to its compressive strength at 28 days, according to the Colombian standard for earthquake resistant constructions; for the determination of the flexural strength of the bonding mortar and solid brick units, a semiautomatic machine for flexural strength testing of masonry units, Pinzuar model PC-13, with a force measurement of 1000 N and an accuracy of 0.1 N, was designed. The flexural strength at the masonry joint was obtained for mortar type M with a value of 0.26 MPa, with a standard deviation of 0.01 MPa and a coefficient of variation of 4.72%. As for mortars type N and S, the average strength value was equal to 0.24 MPa for the two types of mortar, with standard deviation of 0.03 MPa and 0.01 MPa respectively, and coefficient of variation of 11.4% and 3.18% respectively. Given the importance of the variables, an interpretation of physical of the relationship between the properties was made: compressive strength of the solid fired clay brick and flexural strength at the masonry joint, since their average values were similar.

The present day frame work of medical science of India and abroad clearly signals a drift inducing a general direction and turdencoy towards ayurvedic the medicines and formulations over other conventional medical streams. As a result elaborate and heightened efforts are undertaken to revamp the long forgotten herbal formulations over practiced by the great ayurvedic acharyas of this sub continent which acclaimed trustworthiness, effectiveness, and a sure cure for various diseases when the conventional medicines failed to make a headway. The side effects produced by conventional medicines were found to be in excess, where as the herbal formulations were found to have no significant side effects, As such the modern scientists, physicians, and even herbalists are streamlining their effort to formulate herbal medicines and drugs to cure various dreaded diseases like cancer. This research work proposes an innovative and novel process of analyzing cancer curing medical leaves that are available in India .The statistical texture analysis of the leaf is formulated by correlation, homogeneity, contrast, entropy, and smoothness and the result of such analysis is shown.

Abstract The generation of synthetic data is becoming a fundamental task in the daily life of any organization due to the new protection data laws that are emerging. Because of the rise in the use of Artificial Intelligence, one of the most recent proposals to address this problem is the use of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). These types of networks have demonstrated a great capacity to create synthetic data with very good performance. The goal of synthetic data generation is to create data that will perform similarly to the original dataset for many analysis tasks, such as classification. The problem of GANs is that in a classification problem, GANs do not take class labels into account when generating new data, it is treated as any other attribute. This research work has focused on the creation of new synthetic data from datasets with different characteristics with a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (CGAN). CGANs are an extension of GANs where the class label is taken into account when the new data is generated. The performance of our results has been measured in two different ways: firstly, by comparing the results obtained with classification algorithms, both in the original datasets and in the data generated; secondly, by checking that the correlation between the original data and those generated is minimal.

We apply GARCH (p, q) and ARCH(m) model to the daily return of DSE general index (DGEN) ranging from 1<sup>st</sup> January, 2002 to 30<sup>th</sup> July 2013 for examining market volatility. Besides, we calculate year wise standard deviation of daily return of DGEN for the same period. The result of GARCH (1, 1) process and standard deviation of the daily return confirms an abnormal volatility episode from 2009 to 2012. The highest per day volatility was observed in the first half of 2011 in both investigations. The volatility rate found in GARCH (1, 1) process is 2.44% in 2011 followed by 2.00% and 1.99% in 2009 and 2012 respectively. The highest standard deviation of return is 2.99% in 2011 followed by 2.08% in 2012 authenticate the highest volatile periods of the study. We apply ARCH (m) model in 2004 and 2013 for volatility estimate due to inapplicability of GARCH (p, q) process in those market return. The results of ARCH (m) model confirm reliable estimates of market volatility, 1.10% and 1.46% respectively. This is a part of our total research work where our main focus is to detect the factors affecting market volatility and its spillover effects in emerging markets.
