Microbial Peroxidases and their applications[ ]


Peroxidases are oxidoreductases that can convert many compounds into their oxidized form by a free radical mechanism. This peroxidase enzyme is produced by microorganisms like bacteria and fungi. Peroxidase family includes many members in it, one such member is lignin peroxidase. Lignin peroxidase has the potential to degrade the lignin by oxidizing phenolic structures in it. The microbes that have shown efficient production of peroxidase are Bacillus sp., Providencia sp., Streptomyces, Pseudomonas sp. These microorganisms were optimized to produce peroxidase efficiently.

The Application of GIS Model as a Location Selector for Biomass Gasification Plants in Bogoro Local Government Area, Bauchi, Nigeria[ ]


The demand for energy especially in small scale applications is increasing on a daily basis on a global scale. The major quantum of energy demand is met through fossil fuels, but the associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emission from the burning of fossil fuel has been of major global environmental concern. Thus, significant demand for future energy has to come from renewable energy sources to meet the projected demand and to halt GHGs emissions to an acceptable level. Globally, crop residue biomass has been acknowledged as a veritable alternative energy source due to its renewability minimal cost implications, availability and carbon neutrality.

Classification of Speech Signal using Phase Space Analysis � A case study in Bangla[ ]


The main objective of this paper is to classify the speech signal into its basic components viz. quasi-periodic, quasi-random, and quiescent using a time-domain based state phase analysis algorithm. The uniqueness of the phase space algorithm is the conversion of a single dimension speech signal into the two-dimension array for the construction of the phase plot. These phase plots are later on used for the building of a deviation graph from where four classification parameters have been derived.

Smart City Surveillance System Using Facial Recognition[ ]


In the last few years, there has been some brilliant work in the field of facial recognition [1,2,3,4], it has been quite difficult to perform this task efficiently. In this paper, we are proposing a system where the distance of a face from a 3-d surface is a direct measurement of the facial similarities. Once we generate the 3-d space then it’s easy to perform various tasks like clustering using feature vector’s which is very similar or a basic idea in machine learning. Our method works on a CNN trained to provide optimized results and we tried to implement facial recognition by using only 128 bits pers head/face.
