So, changes in CD4 in malaria patients were studied at a teaching hospital in Enugu, Nigeria. 45 patients on doctor’s provisional diagnosis of malaria were examined for Plasmodium infections and the degree of parasitaemia (0/+/ ++/ & +++). Positive/(+) and negative/(0) samples were thereafter counted for CD4 using Flow Cytometry. CD4 cell count of Plasmodium-negative specimens were within reference ranges (RR): (464-1308); mean value: 835. Fifteen (+) parasitaemia showed lower ranges of CD4 count (502-1282); mean: 678; with immune falls in one (427). 9/12 (++) parasitaemia showed crash in CD4 counts, range: 301- 415; mean: 399. Seven (+++) parasitaemia showed crashes in CD4 counts, range: 160-357; mean: 225. As parasitaemia rises, neutrophils, Total WBC and lymphocyte significantly rise in numeric. Malaria causes immunosuppression; unlike prevailing reports, should accelerate complications in immunodeficients-patients, Haemolytic-anaemia results only from chronic cases. CD4 counts should be a paradigm in malaria investigation.","PeriodicalId":20688,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Conference on Innovation in Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135510488","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}

SFC, as a chained function composition for complex network services, plays a crucial role in improving network efficiency and stability. To address the issue of existing SFC deployment algorithms that overlook the reliability of network functions and links, this paper proposes a deep reinforcement learning-based algorithm that utilizes a virtual network function and virtual link reliability mapping model for optimization. By learning the mapping between system states and actions, the algorithm can optimize the deployment strategy of SFC, thereby enhancing its reliability and performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can significantly improve the reliability of SFC and have practical implications for network service deployment.","PeriodicalId":20688,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Conference on Innovation in Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135515139","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 subject of electricity generation, distribution and transmission has been a major issue in Nigeria and has been the center of previous research over the years due to the inadequacy of supply to the citizens of the nation. Owing to the carbon footprints left by conventional source of electricity generation, other sustainable options are being explored. Biogas been generated from municipal solid waste is a current trend in renewable energy. In this review, considering all the factors stated above, a MSW stream has been identified as a consistent source and also a widely accessible and available source that can be utilised for energy generation. In addition, it is an unwanted resource in the state, as such, will easily be accessible. Waste management practice in Nigeria seems to be unsustainable, as a result of the steady increase in the amount of waste generated on daily basis. Although, building a biogas plant could handle huge amount of waste and provide electricity to household, however, the greatest challenge to setup such facility could be in-terms of capital investment, as well as operating and maintenance cost. The best suited technology for application is anaerobic digestion of food waste, the reason for this is that most of the non-biodegradable materials are recycled by scavengers, and a consideration of the fact that Nigeria imports a greater percentage (80%) of its fertilizer from abroad, thus, application of this technology is enormous, as the by-product of the digestion process will serve as fertilizer which will be sold to farmers.","PeriodicalId":20688,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Conference on Innovation in Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134961286","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}

At present, fault classification is based on recurrent neural network (RNN) for temporal signals, and the development of RNN is not so mature compared with convolutional neural network (CNN). Therefore, this paper proposes a transmission line fault classification algorithm based on higher-order spectral analysis and CNN, aiming at converting the time-series signals into images and using CNN for fault classification. After establishing the fault model on Matlab/Simulink, the current signals of different faults are obtained. After processing the current signals to extract their zero-mode currents, the fault image signals are obtained using higher-order spectral analysis as the input to the CNN. Simulation results show that the proposed method can accurately identify faults with high accuracy when faults occur in transmission lines, thus reducing the economic losses caused by faults.","PeriodicalId":20688,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Conference on Innovation in Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79891635","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}

There are currently two main problems with outdoor mobile robot scanning: firstly, the scanning path is too long; secondly, it is easy to collide with obstacles, and this thesis will focus on the above two problems. Firstly, a topological structure graph is constructed for the outdoor scene, and the set of accessible points is obtained. The high exploration value region is first explored by the greedy algorithm, and then the ant colony algorithm is used for path planning of the general exploration value region. Secondly, we make algorithmic improvements to the ant colony algorithm by adopting a multi-trajectory path planning algorithm that allows decision makers to obtain multiple solutions, proposing a negative feedback ant colony algorithm, and introducing guidance pheromones and alert pheromones to enable the ant colony algorithm to explore with a comprehensive consideration of the effects brought about by the environment. Finally, for the algorithm proposed in this thesis, we conducted simulation experiments using point cloud map and raster method respectively, our proposed algorithm has better performance on the map, and the improved ant colony algorithm can improve the scanning range by about 4% than the original algorithm when moving the same distance.","PeriodicalId":20688,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Conference on Innovation in Science and Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86197060","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}
