Understanding human behavior and human action recognition are both essential components of effective surveillance video analysis for the purpose of guaranteeing public safety. However, existing approaches such as three-dimensional convolutional neural networks (3D CNN) and two-stream neural networks (2SNN) have computational hurdles due to the significant parameterization they require. In this paper, we offer HARNet, a specialized lightweight residual 3D CNN that is built on directed acyclic graphs and was created expressly to handle these issues and achieve effective human action detection.

PM49 strain from Bay of Bengal coastal area of India. The strain PM49 exhibited highly efficient antibacterial properties on multidrug-resistant pathogens with a zone of inhibition of 14-17 mm.

These resistant isolates harbor various mechanisms to counteract the drugs administered and have been reported to deliver these factors to sensitive strains in hostile environment. The present study aimed to screen for multidrug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains for the production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases, metallo-β-lactamases, AmpC β-lactamase, drug efflux phenotypes and co-transfer the resistance for cephalosporin and other non-beta lactam antibiotics in CaCl2 treated drug sensitive E.
