SRC:Superior Robustness of COVID-19 Detection from Noisy Cough Data Using GFCC

This research is focused on a highly effective and untapped feature called gammatone frequency cepstral coefficients(GFCC)for the detection of COVID-19 by using the nature-inspired meta-heuristic algorithm of deer hunting optimization and artificial neural network(DHO-ANN).The noisy crowdsourced cough datasets were collected from the public domain.This research work claimed that the GFCC yielded better results in terms of COVID-19 detection as compared to the widely used Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient in noisy crowdsourced speech corpora.The proposed algorithm's performance for detecting COVID-19 disease is rigorously validated using statistical measures,F1 score,confusion matrix,specificity,and sensitivity parameters.Besides,it is found that the proposed algorithm using GFCC performs well in terms of detecting the COVID-19 disease from the noisy crowdsourced cough dataset,COUGHVID.Moreover,the proposed algorithm and undertaken feature parameters have improved the detection of COVID-19 by 5%compared to the existing methods.

Penetration and Post-infection Development of Meloidogyne Incognita on Tobacco as Treated by Rhizobacteria Pseudomonas Fluorescens Strain P-72-10

The bio-control potential of rhizospere bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens against plant-parasite nematode had been demonstrated. P. fluorescens had shown the effect to enhance tobacco resistance to root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. Inoculation with P. fluorescens in tobacco could lead to significant reductions in the number of juveniles that penetrated tobacco root and further life stage development of the juveniles. The number of juveniles penetrated into tobacco root in treatment with P. fluorescens is significantly different from CK at 2DAI,6DAI,8DAI and 10 DAI. Significant reduction and delayed development of juveniles that penetrated into tobacco root and treated were observed in treatment at14 DAI,21DAI,28 DAI and 35 DAI. In addition,P. fluorescens treatment leads to a significant reduction in the number of eggs per egg-mass at 35 DAI. The results show P. fluorescens induced a continuously suppression on root-knot nematode M. incognita throughout their entire early infection phase of root penetration,subsequent life stage development and reproduction.
