Utilizing machine learning algorithms, specifically SIFT and FLAAN, we develop highly accurate 3D models of furniture. The portal features various filters, including price range and categories, to streamline the shopping experience. The AI-enabled pricing tool, implemented through web scraping techniques on platforms like Amazon using BeautifulSoup, ensures sellers can set competitive and accursate prices, enhancing customer value. The platform allows sellers to request the addition of 3D models for their products. Admins then select the most similar 3D .obj models from the Shapenet dataset and embed AR links into the portal, enabling buyers to visualize furniture in their own space through augmented reality. This capability significantly improves the shopping experience by allowing customers to see how furniture fits in their home environment before purchase. The portal is built using Django for the backend and PostgreSQL for database management, ensuring a fast, secure, and reliable user experience. By combining AR, advanced 3D modeling, AI-driven pricing, and robust backend technologies, this research contributes to the development of a seamless and engaging e-commerce platform for furniture retail.","PeriodicalId":14366,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Science and Research Archive","volume":"10 24","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796129","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}

This absence of cohesion appeared due to many historical, geographical and economic factors. It has ultimately culminated in differentiated development outcomes in India. This work wants to evaluate the effect of social cohesion on the development achievements. To that respect Graph theory, Markov chain analysis and Artificial Intelligence have been used. Here society has been conceived as a network of n agents. To initiate the Markov process the idea of Genetic Algorithm is used. On the other hand this work tries to measure the Cohesion Density Index for the concerned network and correlation with the time and apace complexity of that very network. This work actually compares the stationary states through Artificial Intelligence to find the most acceptable or optimum. It is concluded that the level of cohesion among different social groups can largely influence the expected outcome of any inclusionary development programme. This lack of cohesiveness within the Indian society due to some strong religio-philosophical reasons is one of the greatest challenges to India in achieving desired inclusive growth. In this paper it is shown that increasing the connectedness of the society can improve the efficiency of the development programs.","PeriodicalId":14366,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Science and Research Archive","volume":"2 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796175","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}

The results showed that the female offspring are produced more than the male offspring in all three diets. The mixed diet produced more female offspring compared to the other two diets. There is a much greater difference in sex ratio observed in wheat cream agar media compared to treated and mixed media, where an average difference is observed.

This review examines various innovations tailored to fulfill the evolving demands of the burgeoning 5G network. By integrating multiple driven elements, expansive feeding networks, and comprehensive impedance matching techniques, a single antenna can now accommodate numerous 5G frequency bands. Efforts to miniaturize the antenna's design, crucial for maintaining performance while reducing size, include the stacking of element layers and the adoption of flexible or planar configurations. Additionally, the antenna's coverage is further optimized for 5G mobile communication through the implementation of dynamic beam steering, which employs phased arrays, Rotman lenses, and adaptive machine learning algorithms. The incorporation of active elements that allow for dynamic signal characteristic control also contributes to the enhanced performance of the Yagi antenna. Finally, the exploration of various array configurations, such as bi-Yagi and quad-Yagi, offers improvements in gain, directivity, and compatibility with 5G applications.","PeriodicalId":14366,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Science and Research Archive","volume":"5 16","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141796230","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}
