Products in the market are expected to satisfy the consumer’s quality requirements. Agriculture being one of the main occupation of the people of India, the raw products must be sorted to determine whether they fit the quality description so that high quality products are obtained as the end result. The proposed method is designed to ensure the availability of good quality coconut oil in the market by assessing the quality of each individual sample going into the production line. 70% of moisture content present naturally in copra(dried coconut kernel) is dried to almost 7% for coconut oil production. To prevent the growth of bacteria and fungus on the surface of the copra, sulphur is added as a preservative. Allergenic reactions and lung performance restrictions can be caused due to the presence of sulphur in copra. The presence of moisture may also adversely affect oil quality. The texture features such as wrinkles, moulds, fungi growth on the surface also deplete the oil quality. The features of different kinds of copra are analysed and is used train the machine. The machine learning methodology is adopted for the classification of copra as usable and unusable.

Gait disorders accompany a number of neurological and musculoskeletal disorders that significantly reduce the quality of life. Motion sensors enable high-quality modelling of gait stereotypes. However, they produce large volumes of data, the evaluation of which is a challenge. In this publication, we compare different data reduction methods and classification of reduced data for use in clinical practice. The best accuracy achieved between a group of healthy individuals and patients with ataxic gait extracted from the records of 43 participants (23 ataxic, 20 healthy), forming 418 segments of straight gait pattern, is 98% by random forest classifier preprocessed by t-distributed stochastic neighbour embedding.

<p>Abstrak</p><p>Proses penggorengan akan menyebabkan perubahan mutu minyak akibat reaksi hidrolisis, oksidasi dan proses termal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perubahan mutu  minyak kelapa dan minyak sawit selama penggorengan. Minyak kelapa dan minyak sawit masing-masing digunakan untuk menggoreng kentang pada suhu 170°C selama 15 menit. Minyak tersebut digunakan untuk 3 kali penggorengan. Pada akhir penggorengan dilakukan pengambilan sampel minyak untuk dievaluasi kadar air, kadar asam lemak bebas, bilangan peroksida dan bilangan TBA (Tiobarbituric acid). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebelum penggorengan minyak kelapa dan minyak sawit memiliki kadar air yang hampir sama, tetapi kadar asam lemak bebas, angka peroksida dan TBA minyak kelapa lebih rendah dibanding minyak sawit. Selama penggorengan minyak kelapa dan minyak sawit menunjukkan pola perubahan kadar air yang hampir sama. Pada 1 kali dan 2 kali penggorengan kadar asam lemak bebas, angka peroksida dan angka TBA minyak kelapa dan minyak sawit cenderung berfluktuasi. Pada 3 kali penggorengan minyak kelapa memiliki kadar asam lemak bebas,  angka  peroksida  dan  angka  TBA  yang  lebih  rendah  dibandingkan  minyak  sawit.  Hasil  yang  diperoleh menunjukkan   bahwa   minyak   kelapa  lebih   stabil   terhadap   reaksi   oksidasi   dibanding   minyak   sawit   selama penggorengan.</p><p> </p><p>Pattern of Coconut Oil and Palm Oil Quality During Frying</p><p>ABSTRACT</p><p> </p><p>Frying was a process which affected the quality of oil due to hydrolysis, oxidation and thermal reactions. The aim of the research was to study the quality pattern of coconut oil and palm oil quality during frying. The oils were utilized to fry french fries at 170°C for 15 minutes and then used in frying process for 3 times. Samples of oil were taken at the end of each frying period and analyzed for its moisture, free fatty acid, peroxide and TBA (tiobarbituric acid) values. The results showed that, coconut oil and palm oil having similary moisture content before and during frying. Otherwise free fatty acid, peroxide and TBA values at coconut oil lower then palm oil. During 1 and 2 times of frying period these two oils showed fluctuation in free fatty acid, peroxide and TBA values. During 3 times of frying, coconut oil contained free fatty acid, peroxide and TBA value lower than palm oi. Thus, we consider that coconut oil was more stable to oxidation compared to palm oil during frying</p>

Emotional Aspects

After committing an offense, transgressors face an important decision regarding how to respond to the people they hurt. Do they make themselves emotionally vulnerable by offering high-quality, comprehensive apologies? Or do they seek to protect themselves with defensive strategies, such as justifications and excuses? In two studies, we examined the link between attachment styles and apology quality. We hypothesized that because people high in attachment avoidance are uncomfortable with emotional vulnerability and tend to defensively disengage from emotional aspects of relationships, they would offer less comprehensive and more defensive apologies. In Study 1, participants imagined hurting a friend and then rated their likelihood of using each of eight apology elements and five defensive strategies. In Study 2, participants wrote a real email to a person they had hurt. Our prediction was supported in both studies, suggesting that attachment avoidance plays an important role in how transgressors manage their offenses.

Mapreduce Scheduling

The advent of social networking and internet of things (IoT) has resulted in exponential growth of data in the last few years. This, in turn, has increased the need to process and analyze such data for optimal decision making. In order to achieve better results, there is an emergence of newly-built architectures for parallel processing. Hadoop MapReduce (MR) is a programming model that is considered as one of the most powerful computation tools for processing the data on a given cluster of commodity nodes. However, the management of clusters along with various quality requirements necessitates the use of efficient MR scheduling. The chapter discusses the classification of MR scheduling algorithms based on their applicability with required parameters of quality of service (QoS). After classification, a detailed study of MR schedulers has been presented along with their comparison on various parameters.

Procedural Reform

“For hard it is for high and stately buildings long to stand except they be upholden and staid by most strong shores, and rest upon most sure foundations”—Jean Bodin, The Six Books of a Commonweale (1576)It has been said of the redemptive quality of procedural reform that it is “about nine parts myth and one part coconut oil.” Yet, as the recent history of the United Nations shows, failure to enact adequate procedural reform can have damaging consequences for an organization and its activities. In the targeted-sanctions context, litigation in over thirty national and regional courts over due process deficiencies has had a “significant impact on the regime,” placing it “at a legal crossroads.” In the peacekeeping context, the United Nations’ position that claims in the ongoing Haiti cholera controversy are “not receivable” has been described in extensive and uniformly critical press coverage as the United Nations’ “Watergate, except with far fewer consequences for the people responsible.” Complacency in the face of allegations of sexual abuse by UN blue helmets led to the unprecedented ousting of a special representative to the secretary-general in the Central African Republic. Economizing on due process standards is proving to be a false economy.

The paper describes how neural networks may be used to segment and label objects in images. A self-organising feature map is used for the segmentation phase, and we quantify the quality of the segmentations produced as well as the contribution made by colour and texture features. A multi-layer perceptron is trained to label the regions produced by the segmentation process. It is shown that 91.1% of the image area is correctly classified into one of eleven categories which include cars, houses, fences, roads, vegetation and sky.

Xylene is an aromatic hydrocarbon which is widely used as a deparaffinizing agent, and it is extremely biohazardous. Various biosafe alternatives to xylene have been studied in the past with variable results. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of Cedar wood oil, Coconut oil and Dish wash liquid (DWL) with Xylene as a deparaffinizing agent and to figure out the best biosafe alternative to Xylene. The study consisted of 50 samples and results were analyzed based on the cellular architecture and total quality of staining. Xylene and DWS showed same result of high-quality staining in case of cellular architecture. But in case of total quality of staining, only Xylene showed the best results. Hence, we could conclude that though Xylene is toxic, it is still the best deparaffinizing agent and more studies has to be done in this field to prove the efficiency of natural agents.
