| 1 | Mutagenicity Assessment of Textile Dyes Using AMES Test by Harpreet Kaur & Dr. Gursharan Singh Kainth | Ludhiana city of Punjab is famous for its dyeing and printing of textile fabric. Increased usage of chemical-based dyestuff was release into the natural surface water body (Buddha Nallah) which destroys the environment and proved to be a great ecological hazard. The workers in these industries have no control over the pace and space of exposure. Both untreated, as well as treated effluents from these industries, are released into surface waters through the drainage systems. But many dyes proved to be carcinogenic to the people of Ludhiana city. A complete evaluation safety of these dyes required assessment of the mutagenicity of these dyes. Five textile dyes from Ludhiana city were collected from textile industries in the periphery of Buddha Nallah and tested for their mutagenicity by using Ames test with the strain Salmonella Typhimurium TA 100 | 26-November-2019 | 08-January-2020/ 21-January-2020 |

| 2 | Building Footprint Delineation from UAV Image Using Deep Learning by Hein Thura Aung & Sao Hone Pha | Manual digitization of building footprints from high resolution images takes more time and human resources, and it is more difficult for future updates. In this paper, building footprints are automatically delineated using deep learning algorithm, which is conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN). First, the red, green, blue (RGB) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) image of Yangon Technological University (YTU) campus is manually digitized for building footprints. Second, both UAV image and digitized image are sliced into smaller images, and the sliced images are grouped into training dataset and validating dataset. Third, the training dataset is used to train CGAN, and after training, validating dataset is used to test performance of the trained CGAN. During training CGAN, learning rate and the number of epochs are adjusted to get minimum training loss. The validated output images are then transformed into vector images, and compared with manually digitized images for evaluation. Three evaluation parameters: completeness, correctness, F1 score are used for evaluation of output images. According to the evaluation results, CGAN can automatically extract building footprints up to 83% completeness, 85% correctness, and 84% F1 score. | 08-January-2020 | 21-January-2020 | 07 - 12 | Download Paper |
| 3 | Minority Carrier Lifetime Calculation in Solar Cell by Thein Htike & Hla Myo Tun | This paper presents the analysis and calculation of minority carrier lifetime in silicon solar cell with different three of recombination processes: radiative recombination, Auger recombination and SRH recombination. The power conversion efficiency of solar cell is directly proportional to the minority carrier lifetime of solar cell, because of the long lifetimes related with high open circuit voltage and short circuit current. The higher the lifetime of minority carriers, the higher the power conversion efficiency of solar cell. Silicon wafers have different crystal defects, grain boundaries, material properties, it affects minority carrier lifetime. The recombination process on carrier lifetime is one of the most important parameters for designing the high efficiency solar cell. | 01-January-2020 | 21-January-2020 | 13 - 16 | Download Paper |
| 4 | Impact of Trade and Commerce on the Politicos Economic Development of India by Silky Gupta | India has trade relations with the rest of the world namely the United States, China, Australia, Canada, Japan, Great Britain, and the European Union. One nation bought and sold the goods in the International market as all are interdependent. When any change takes place in one country, some of the changes occur in other countries. (Grewal, Sharma 2013). Trade among nations is not free. One has to give money to exchange goods and services between the nations. In the International market, the domestic currency is not accepted. Thus, the concept of exchange rate came into existence. The major aim of the paper is to find out the impact of international trade on economic growth via the secondary sources of data. The paper will also reveal that International trade put an impact on the exchange rate of the country because International trade foreign currency is essential. Furthermore, Due to internal instability, drought, War with China and Pakistan India were not able to increase production in own nation. Thus, India has started to make trade relations with others. Therefore, the Gross Domestic Product of Indian declined and the growth of the Indian economy became stagnant. Therefore, the dependent variable will be the exchange rate and dependent variables will be inflation, interest rate and balance of trade, exports in GDP, Gross Domestic Product, and Imports in GDP. Testing will be done through multiple regression and correlation. | 28-November-2019 | 18-January-2020/ 27-January-2020 |
