Machine learning is a field of computer science that gives computer systems the ability to "learn" (i.e., progressively improve performance on a specific task) with data, without being explicitly programmed [1] . In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, practical speech recognition, effective web search, and a vastly improved understanding of the human genome. Machine learning is so pervasive today that you probably use it dozens of times a day without knowing it. Object detection and identification is one of the classic but extremely important problems in computer vision. Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) is one of the most powerful tools for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning problem. Object recognition is concerned with determining the identity of an object being observed in the image from a set of known labels. Oftentimes, it is assumed that the object being observed has been detected or there is a single object in the image. This project aims to develop vision systems that match the cognitive capabilities of human beings, systems that can tell the specific identity of an object being observed.

Any organization, whether it may be a manufacturing, chemical, process, construction site or an office needs to organize their physical goods within their available space to achieve certain objectives. In manufacturing perspective each facility (department, cell or machine) that needs to be placed in two dimensional shop floor region to achieve the distance based cost objective that is called facility layout problem (FLP). Minimizing the material handling cost is the most considered objective, but qualitative as well as quantitative objectives are also considered together to solve FLP. In this work the detail layout design of FLP that comprises layout design of departments within the shop floor, locations of input and output (I/O) stations and the material transport path that connects the I/O stations of departments along the department perimeter. Solving these issues simultaneously in an integrated manner will yield a near optimal solution for FLP. Due to NP-hard nature of the integrated FLP traditional approaches becomes much less useful and therefore an Elitist Strategy Genetic Algorithm (ESGA) is developed and tested with the test problem instances available in the literature.

Medical histories include a variety of documentation of patient's past, clinical discoveries, diagnostic check results, preoperative care, operation notes, post-operative care, and daily notes of a patient's progress and medications. It is very important for the treating doctor to properly document the management of a patient under his care. Medical record keeping has evolved into a science of itself. This will be the only way for the doctor to prove that the conduct was carried out properly. It is important for the doctors and medical establishments to properly maintain the records of patients for two important reasons: the first one is that it will help them in the systematic evaluation of their patient profile, helping in analysing the treatment results, and to plan treatment protocols. It also helps in planning governmental strategies for future medical care. The legal system relies mainly on documentary evidence in a situation where medical negligence is alleged by the patient or the relatives. With the increasing use of medical cover for treatment, the insurance companies also require proper record for keeping proof of the patient's demand for medical expenses. Improper record keeping can result in declining medical claims. It is overwhelming to note that in spite of knowing the importance of appropriate record keeping it is still in an emerging stage in India. The traditional method of keeping records that is followed in most of the hospitals across India is the manual method involving papers and books. There are serious boundaries of physical record keeping including the need for large storage areas and difficulties in the recovery of records. Our aim is to create an online space for doctors as well as patients to maintain the medical records and to ensure a transparent and reliable medical treatment system.

The increasing demand of wireless applications has put a lot of limitations on the use of available radio spectrum is limited and precious resource. Many survey of spectrum utilization show that entire spectrum is not used at all the times, so many of the radio spectrum is underutilized. Some of the frequency bands in the spectrum are unoccupied, some of the frequency bands less occupied and few bands are over utilized. Cognitive radio system is a technique which overcomes that spectrum underutilization. Cognitive radio is a technique where secondary user looks for a free band to use when primary user is not in use of its licensed band. A function of cognitive radio is called Spectrum sensing which enables to search for the free bands and it helps to detect the spectrum hole (frequency band which is free enough to be used) which can be utilized by secondary user with high spectral resolution capability. The idea of simulation and analysis of Cognitive Radio System tore use unused spectrum to increase the total system capacity was brought in this paper and this work digs into the practical implementation of a Cognitive radio system. MATLAB R2007b (version7.5) has been used to test the performance of Cognitive radio dynamically.
