Performance Comparison of Machine Learning Models for Concrete Compressive Strength Prediction.

This study explores the prediction of concrete compressive strength using machine learning models, aiming to overcome the time-consuming and complex nature of conventional methods. Four models-an artificial neural network (ANN), a multiple linear regression, a support vector machine, and a regression tree-are employed and compared for performance, using evaluation metrics such as mean absolute deviation, root mean square error, coefficient of correlation, and mean absolute percentage error. After preprocessing 1030 samples, the dataset is split into two subsets: 70% for training and 30% for testing.

Design and Development of a Topical Nanogel Formulation Comprising of a Unani Medicinal Agent for the Management of Pain.

The oil of the Unani medicinal herb Baboona () has shown potential in the management of pain. However, predicaments such as poor skin penetration, skin sensitization, liable to degradation, and volatile nature restrict its use. Therefore, our group for the first time has developed a carrier-based delivery system to facilitate the direct application of chamomile oil to the forehead.

A Comprehensive Study of Therapeutic Applications of Chamomile.

Chamomile has a long history of traditional medicinal uses. The two commonly used varieties with therapeutic applications are German chamomile known as L. and Roman chamomile or L.

A 9-Month-Old Boy With "3 Months of Croup" a Devil Inside.

Coccidioidomycosis (CM) is an endemic fungal disease that is prevalent in the Southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central and South America. The majority of cases are asymptomatic. Symptomatic cases primarily present with pneumonic disease, varying in severity from mild to severe.

Precursor film: a key driver to determine wetting behavior in the vicinity of surface heterogeneity.

Experimental findings in the recent past have clearly emphasized the role of the three-phase contact line in determining the wetting behavior of liquids. However, at a microscopic level when the precursor film precedes the contact line, the role of thin film in wetting behavior becomes important. The current study presents a series of simple experiments to establish the role of precursor films in controlling the wetting behavior in the context of rising liquids in vertical planes.
