Big data techniques for extracting insight from data arising out of demonetization, digitization and cashless economy initiatives of India

Big data techniques for extracting insight from data arising out of demonetization, digitization and cashless economy initiatives of India Ajit Kumar Roy Central Agricultural University, India The digital economy is rapidly developing worldwide as the largest driver of innovation, competition, and growth. Even though many people have been excluded, tremendous opportunities are available for the digital economy to support ﬁnancial inclusion for sustainable economic development. India could see a boost of $700 billion, an 11.8% increase by 2025. This additional GDP could create up to 21 million jobs. McKinsey has estimated that Indians lose more than $2 billion a year in forgone income simply because of the time it takes travelling to and from a bank. India aims to create a cleaner, more transparent economy via digitalization that will lead to an improved climate for foreign investment, boost economic growth. Goldman Sachs predicts that India - comprising 15% of the world populat...

Quantitative Assessment of Trend of Water Area Development, Fish Production, Fish Seed Production Over Successive Plan Periods of Nagaland

Quantitative Assessment of Trend of Water Area Development, Fish Production, Fish Seed Production Over Successive Plan Periods of Nagaland March 2013 Projects: Fisheries/Aquaculture Econometrics/Statistics Ajit kumar Roy Anil Upadhyay Khriezhato Nakhro Abstract A complete account of fisheries resources that includes rivers, lakes, bheels pond and tanks along with Government initiatives for fisheries development are compiled for Nagaland well known for its fish biodiversity. In spite of the available resources, in terms of aquaculture production the state of Nagaland could not make visible impact so far. The meager production of the state is still far from self-sufficient and this can be attributed to a number of constraints such as land locke...

Cutting edge computational solutions for large scale high-dimensional data sets arising out of new biology

Cutting edge computational solutions for large scale high-dimensional data sets arising out of new biology New biology is a branch of biology that that deals with the nature of biological phenomenon at the molecular level. In post genomic era a new language has been created for new biology viz.,Genomics,Functional Genomics, Proteomics,cDNA,microarrays, Global Gene Expression Patterns .New Computational Tools are used for Sequencing, Analyzing experimental data, Searching, Pattern matching, Data mining, Gene discovery, Function discovery aiming to Classify, Identify patterns, predictions, Create models & Prediction, Assessment and Comparison,Optimization,Better utilize existing knowledge. The new wave of high-throughput technologies in genomics and proteomics are constantly improving and generating an unprecedented amount of data that can be termed as Big Data means large data sets in terms of volume, variety, velocity, variability, veracity, & complexity.

Evaluation of Performance of Primary Fisheries Cooperative Societies (MSS) of Tripura

Evaluation of Performance of Primary Fisheries Cooperative Societies (MSS) of Tripura A.D. Upadhyay, M. Sinha, 1 , A.K. Roy, J.R. Dhanze and D.K. Pandey College of Fisheries, Central Agricultural University, Lembucherra Tripura – 799 210, India 1 Directorate of Fisheries, Govt. of Tripura, Agartala, India Email:ad_up@rediffma Abstract Fishermen cooperatives are recognized as means of socio-economic development of fishers/fish farming community, which generally belong to weaker section of the society. The state of Tripura has made significant progress in fish production by 197 per cent from 2004-05 to 2011-12. An attempt has been made in this paper to analyse the status of Fishermen Cooperatives in Tripura with respect to water holdings and fish and fish seed production. It has been found that the fishermen cooperative in Tripura like other states of the country is not encouraging because majority of them...
