Paper Title:

Experimental Studies on the Prediction of Corrosion Levels in Reinforced TMT bars in SCC Exposed to Marine Environment

Abstract: Reinforced concrete structures have good potential to be durable and capable of withstanding adverse environmental conditions. Failures in R.C.C structures do still occur as a result of premature reinforcement corrosion. Corrosion of steel has been recognized as one of the major durability problems in R.C.C structures. Damage due to corrosion of steel bars considerably reduces the strength, serviceability and life of structural components. Inspection and continuous monitoring techniques are necessarily to be carried out to assess the steel corrosion in buildings and bridge components in order to ensure their safety, durability for longer time. These techniques are essentially required for easy maintenance and repairs of the structural components also. Few investigations were carried out to study the corrosion levels in reinforced steel bars exposed to marine environment. Very few investigations were carried out so far to predict the corrosion levels in SCC exposed to salts and chemical environments. The present paper outlines the investigations carried out to predict the corrosion levels in TMT bars in Normal Conventional Concrete (NVC) and Self compacting concrete (SCC) exposed to marine environment . It also shows the severity of concrete exposure condition on the progressive corrosion in TMT bars when immersed in salt solution.

Keywords: Reinforcement corrosion, Self Compacting Concrete (SCC), De-ionized water, Reinforced Thermo Mechanically Treated (TMT) bars, marine environment, Potential difference, Saturated Calomel Electrode (SCE), Open Circuit Potential (OCP) method.

Paper Title:

Emotion Detection and Recognition from Vietnamese Text

Abstract: the areas of Emotion Detection and Recognition from text have become increasingly interested in finding and exploiting information about people. Various problems have been identified such as product evaluations, emotional recognition and emotional findings in the text. In this paper, we present the application of Support Vector Machine (SVM) to detect emotional states in the Vietnamese sentences. The results of our experiments on datasets extracted from Vietnamese novels show that our proposed SVM classification method has higher accuracy than unsupervised learning methods. 

Keywords: emotion detection, emotion classification, emotions, natural language processing, learning support vector machine.

Paper Title:

Contour Analysis Based Gesture Control PC Operation

Abstract:  There are a lot of home appliances and personal computers around us. However, few of the user interfaces are designed for user basic access. In this study, as an interface focusing on the ease of use, we develop a system to control personal computer by applying the natural behavior of human. This paper introduces a system that allows a user to carry out computer operation using a web camera. This system consist of four stages viz image acquisition, image pre-processing, feature extraction and gesture recognition. In the first stage, the input image is capture with the help of a camera. In the second phase, the skin color of hand region is distinguished using HSV color space and morphological operations like erosion, dilation, smoothing and thresholding. In Feature extraction stage, contours of hand image are identified. Lastly, Gesture recognition stage contains recognized hand gestures suing contour analysis. The Open CV is used to perform our research.

Keywords: Hand Gesture recognition, contour analysis, HSV color space, skin detection, Open CV.
