Electromyography (EMG) involves detecting and recording electrical potentials from skeletal muscles. EMG can be used to evaluate neuromuscular diseases or trauma. There are different types of electrodes used in EMG including surface electrodes, fine wire electrodes, and needle electrodes. During a clinical EMG, insertional activity is observed when the needle is inserted and electrical activity at rest and during voluntary contraction is examined. Abnormal spontaneous activity may be seen which can indicate conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, muscle dystrophy, or myopathy. EMG findings can provide clues to diagnose various neuromuscular disorders.
Packet switching and circuit switching are two different technologies for sending messages over networks. Packet switching breaks messages into packets that can take different routes to the destination, while circuit switching establishes a dedicated connection for the duration of the call. Each approach has advantages - packet switching uses bandwidth efficiently but can experience delays, while circuit switching guarantees quality but is inefficient. Modern networks are shifting more towards packet switching as it allows for easier scaling.

Calibration of the measuring instrument is the process in which the readings obtained from the instrument are compared with the sub-standards in the laboratory at several points along the scale of the instrument. As per the results obtained from the readings obtained of the instrument and the sub-standards, the curve is plotted. If the instrument is accurate there will be matching of the scales of the instrument and the sub-standard. If there is deviation of the measured value from the instrument against the standard value, the instrument is calibrated to give the correct values.
All the new instruments have to be calibrated against some standard in the very beginning. For the new instrument the scale is marked as per the sub-standards available in the laboratories, which are meant especially for this purpose. After continuous use of the instrument for long periods of time, sometimes it loses its calibration or the scale gets distorted, in such cases the instrument can be calibrated again if it is in good reusable condition.
Even if the instruments in the factory are working in the good condition, it is always advisable to calibrate them from time-to-time to avoid wrong readings of highly critical parameters. This is very important especially in the companies where very high precision jobs are manufactured with high accuracy.
All the measuring instruments for measurement of length, pressure, temperature etc should be calibrated against some standard scale at the regular intervals as specified by the manufacturer. There are different methods or techniques of calibration, which are applied depending on whether it is routine calibration or if it is for special purpose where highly accurate calibration of the instruments is desired. In many cases different methods of calibration are applied for all the individual instruments. No what type of calibrations is being done, all of them are done in the laboratory.
The calibration of the instrument is done in the laboratory against the sub-standard instruments, which are used very rarely for this sole purpose. These sub-standards are kept in highly controlled air-conditioned atmosphere so that there their scale does not change with the external atmospheric changes.
To maintain the accuracy of the sub-standards, they are checked periodically against some standard which is kept in the metrological laboratories under highly secured, safe, clean and air conditioned atmosphere. Finally, standards can be checked against the absolute measurements of the quantity, which the instruments are designed to measure.
Gaussian elimination is a method for solving systems of linear equations. It involves converting the augmented matrix into an upper triangular matrix using elementary row operations. There are three types of Gaussian elimination: simple elimination without pivoting, partial pivoting, and total pivoting. Partial pivoting interchanges rows to choose larger pivots, while total pivoting searches the whole matrix for the largest number to use as the pivot. Pivoting strategies help prevent zero pivots and reduce round-off errors.

ADVXAI IN MALWARE ANALYSIS FRAMEWORK: BALANCING EXPLAINABILITY WITH SECURITYijscai
With the increased use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in malware analysis there is also an increased need to
understand the decisions models make when identifying malicious artifacts. Explainable AI (XAI) becomes
the answer to interpreting the decision-making process that AI malware analysis models use to determine
malicious benign samples to gain trust that in a production environment, the system is able to catch
malware. With any cyber innovation brings a new set of challenges and literature soon came out about XAI
as a new attack vector. Adversarial XAI (AdvXAI) is a relatively new concept but with AI applications in
many sectors, it is crucial to quickly respond to the attack surface that it creates. This paper seeks to
conceptualize a theoretical framework focused on addressing AdvXAI in malware analysis in an effort to
balance explainability with security. Following this framework, designing a machine with an AI malware
detection and analysis model will ensure that it can effectively analyze malware, explain how it came to its
decision, and be built securely to avoid adversarial attacks and manipulations. The framework focuses on
choosing malware datasets to train the model, choosing the AI model, choosing an XAI technique,
implementing AdvXAI defensive measures, and continually evaluating the model. This framework will
significantly contribute to automated malware detection and XAI efforts allowing for secure systems that
are resilient to adversarial attacks.

Analysis of reinforced concrete deep beam is based on simplified approximate method due to the complexity of the exact analysis. The complexity is due to a number of parameters affecting its response. To evaluate some of this parameters, finite element study of the structural behavior of the reinforced self-compacting concrete deep beam was carried out using Abaqus finite element modeling tool. The model was validated against experimental data from the literature. The parametric effects of varied concrete compressive strength, vertical web reinforcement ratio and horizontal web reinforcement ratio on the beam were tested on eight (8) different specimens under four points loads. The results of the validation work showed good agreement with the experimental studies. The parametric study revealed that the concrete compressive strength most significantly influenced the specimens’ response with the average of 41.1% and 49 % increment in the diagonal cracking and ultimate load respectively due to doubling of concrete compressive strength. Although the increase in horizontal web reinforcement ratio from 0.31 % to 0.63 % lead to average of 6.24 % increment on the diagonal cracking load, it does not influence the ultimate strength and the load-deflection response of the beams. Similar variation in vertical web reinforcement ratio leads to an average of 2.4 % and 15 % increment in cracking and ultimate load respectively with no appreciable effect on the load-deflection response.

13. Serial communications provide an easy and flexible way for your Arduino
board to interact with your computer and other devices. This chapter
explains how to send and receive information using this capability.
You can also send data from the Serial Monitor to Arduino by entering text
in the text box to the left of the Send button.
Baud rate is selected using the drop-down box on the bottom right. You
can use the drop down labeled “No line ending” to automatically send a
carriage return or a combination of a carriage return and a line at the end of
each message sent when clicking the Send button.
Your Arduino sketch can use the serial port to indirectly access (usually
via a proxy program written in a language like Processing) all the
resources (memory, screen, keyboard, mouse, network connectivity, etc.)
that your computer has. Your computer can also use the serial link to
interact with sensors or other devices connected to Arduino.
17. • Your sketch must call the Serial.begin() function before it
can use serial input or output.
• The function takes a single parameter: the desired
communication speed.
• You must use the same speed for the sending side and the
receiving side, or you will see gobbledygook (or nothing at
all) on the screen. This example and most of the others in
this book use a speed of 9,600 baud (baud is a measure of
the number of bits transmitted per second).
• The 9,600 baud rate is approximately 1,000 characters per
second. You can send at lower or higher rates (the range is
300 to 115,200), but make sure both sides use the same
speed.
21. int incomingByte = 0;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); // opens serial port, sets data rate to 9600 bps
}
void loop()
{
// send data only when you receive data:
if (Serial.available() > 0) {
// read the incoming byte:
incomingByte = Serial.read();
// say what you got:
Serial.print("I received: ");
Serial.println(incomingByte, DEC);
}
}
24. • I2C The two connections for the I2C bus are called SCL and
SDA.
• These are available on a standard Arduino board using
analog pin 5 for SCL, which provides a clock signal, and
analog pin 4 for SDL, which is for transfer of data (on the
Mega, use digital pin 20 for SDA and pin 21 for SCL).
• One device on the I2C bus is considered the master device.
Its job is to coordinate the transfer of information between
the other devices (slaves) that are attached.
• There must be only one master, and in most cases the
Arduino is the master, controlling the other chips attached
to it. Figure 13-1 depicts an I2C master with multiple I2C
slaves.
26. SPI Recent Arduino releases (from release 0019)
include a library that allows communication with
SPI devices. SPI has separate input (labelled
“MOSI”) and output (labelled “MISO”) lines and a
clock line. These three lines are connected to the
respective lines on one or more slaves. Slaves are
identified by signalling with the Slave Select (SS)
line. Figure shows the SPI connections.
