Contaminated drinking water can lead to serious health problems, such as cholera, diarrhea, and other waterborne illnesses. Thus, maintaining clean and safe water becomes essential to advancing public health. Recent research indicates that water-related ailments claim the lives of a noteworthy 3,575,000 individuals annually. Thus, a reliable indicator of water potability could significantly lower the prevalence of these illnesses. Machine learning algorithms have emerged as highly effective instruments for precisely and promptly monitoring water resources by accurately forecasting the quality of the water. The Drinking Water dataset on Kaggle is the source of the water samples used in this study, and various algorithms are used to estimate water potability based on these properties. Nine different metrics make up this dataset: pH, hardness, solids, trihalomethanes, sulphates, chloramines, organic carbon, conductivity, and turbidity. We seek to ascertain the potability of drinking water by utilizing a variety of algorithms, including Random Forest, SVM, Decision Tree, and KNN. Among other notable results, the Random Forest algorithm outperforms conventional machine learning models, producing an astounding accuracy of 99.5%. It also performs well, producing an accuracy of 74%. As a result, this study has great potential to supply researchers, water management professionals, and policymakers with accurate data on water quality, increasing the efficacy of water potability monitoring","PeriodicalId":13718,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology","volume":"32 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141795189","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the challenges associated with the timeconsuming and error-prone nature of detecting COVID-19 through Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RTPCR), there is a growing reliance on alternative methods, such as examining chest X-ray (CXR) images. Viral pneumonia symptoms include a persistent cough with mucus, fever, chills, shortness of breath, and chest pain, especially during deep breaths or coughing. These symptoms often overlap significantly with those of other respiratory infections, including COVID-19. Accurately predicting COVID-19 severity and distinguishing it from viral pneumonia is crucial for effective patient management. Deep learning models offer promise in automating this process. The chest X-ray (CXR) images undergo preprocessing through Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) to improve their quality. These enhanced images are fed into ResNet50 and EfficientNet-B0, both renowned deep learning models. Comparative evaluation demonstrates ResNet50 achieving an accuracy of 92.58%, whereas EfficientNet-B0 achieves a higher accuracy of 93.08%. This study underscores the efficacy of deep learning in COVID-19 prediction. The findings suggest EfficientNet-B0’s potential for improved diagnostic accuracy. This methodology presents a promising approach for automated, accurate COVID-19 severity prediction and differentiation from viral pneumonia, aiding timely medical interventions.","PeriodicalId":13718,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology","volume":"18 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141795428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the other hand, plastics, rubbers, etc. are increasing day by day. Waste like plastic bottles, polymers, cups, waste tyre’s can be re-used by powdering or blending it with crusher’s and can be coated over aggregate and bitumen by any heating process. In this study we have used polymer and crumbed rubber as a binder with respect to aggregate and bitumen. In bituminous roads, we use materials like aggregate (of various sizes), grit and bitumen. The various tests are conducted during this study on aggregates such as crushing value, impact value, abrasion value, and specific gravity and also on bitumen penetration value, ductility, softening point. The results are discussed in this paper. The escalating environmental challenges posed by increasing volumes of waste plastic and waste rubber necessitate innovative solutions for their sustainable management. This M.Tech mini project focuses on exploring the feasibility and efficacy of incorporating waste plastic and waste rubber into road construction materials, specifically in aggregates and bitumen. The research encompasses a comprehensive investigation into the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of these waste materials, assessing their compatibility with traditional road construction requirements. The project unfolds through systematic phases, commencing with a thorough literature review to contextualize the current state of research on utilizing waste plastic and waste rubber in road materials. Following this, samples of waste plastic and waste rubber are collected and characterized, ensuring a nuanced understanding of their material properties. Laboratory experiments are then conducted to modify road aggregates and bitumen with varying proportions of these waste materials. The anticipated outcome of this mini project is a holistic understanding of the viability and benefits of incorporating waste plastic and waste rubber in road construction materials. The findings are expected to contribute to sustainable road infrastructure development, providing a foundation for future research and practical implementation in the realm of civil engineering.
