To achieve the purpose of the study 15 volleyball men players were selected as subjects from department of Physical Education & sports, M.S University Tirunelveli District. The training period was restricted to six week and the number of sessions per week was confined to 3 days (alternative days) and their age ranged between 21 to 24 years. The experimental group received their own video and elite player video through mobile connected with projector programmes such as video shows, clippings, and so forth for skills in Volleyball. Serving were selected as dependent variables and it was tested by using Brumback volleyball service test. For skill analysis used mobile application namely Hudl technique. The collected data were statistically analysed by using descriptive analysis, paired sample "t" test. There was a significant improvement on passing and serving of Volleyball players due to t...

Women have achieved sustained progress in all domains. Nourishing a business as an entrepreneur is a critical activity, which means we need to understand the role of women in developing businesses. Movies about the struggles of female entrepreneurs can help provide that understanding. This article discusses women entrepreneurs in Tamil-speaking regions of India. Three Tamil movies that center on women's entrepreneurship are chosen: 36 Vayadhinile (2015), KaatrinMozhi (2018), and Miss India (2020). One question that drives the action in the first of these films is what sets limits on women's ambitions. Kaatrin Mozhi is about a woman driven by the desire to work as a radio host while maintaining her family life. In Miss India, the protagonist aims even higher. She hopes to create a corporate empire. These three movies portray different dimensions

Research Design and Methods: We carry out a systematic review of the literature between 2010 to 2017 in representative databases for the effect of physical activities or exercise training on academic achievements including language, reading and mathematics-related skills.Our Inclusion criteria which are not considering the journals published before 2010. Exclusion criteria are followed that physically and mentally challenged pupils are skipped. Results: The assessments are arranged as country views and Positive values represent a direct relationship between physical activity influence in academic achievement scores. Out 100 articles 50 articles met our inclusion criteria. Among these 25 articles from USA give positive relations on academic performance, as well as 10 articles from UK, 6 articles from India, 3 articles from Canada, 3 articles from Norway and 3 articles from Finland also report as physical activity helps to enhancing the academic performance also. Conclusion: Physical activity, especially physical education,benefits several aspects of academic achievement, such as mathematics-related skills, reading, and composite etc. Physical activities also help to improve their academic behavior such us task behavior, attendance etc. Cognitive skills such as attention, memory, concentration and mood also developed due to physical activity.

For this purpose, one hundred (n=100) children were selected from Tirunelveli District, Tamil Nadu, India. The Subjects "age ranged between 6 to 8 years. The selected subjects were divided into two groups of fifty subjects each namely experimental and control group. The selected motor skill variables such as bilateral coordination (as jumping in a place-same side synchronized, tapping finger and leg same side synchronized), balance (walking forward on a line and standing one leg on a balancing beam with eye open) and upper-limb coordination (dropping and catching a ball with both hands and dribbling a ball-alternate hands) for this study. The selected dependent variables were assessed by using the Bruininks-Oseretsky test for Motor Proficiency Second Edition-(BOT-2). The collected data on the selected variables were treated with independent "t" test at 0.05 level of significant. The results of the study indicate that there was significant improvement on motor skills due to the effect of 6 weeks Yogasanas practice.

For this purpose, One hundred and eighty (n=180) children were selected from Government and Private Schools in Tirunelveli District, Tamil Nadu, India. The Subjects age ranged between 7 to 12 years. The selected subjects were divided into two groups of ninety subjects each namely Government and Private schools. The balancing abilities were assessed by using the standardized test such as Bruininks-Oseretsky test for Motor Proficiency (BOT-2). The collected data on the selected variables were treated with independent "t" test at 0.05 level of significance. The results of the study indicated that there was a significant difference on balancing ability. Further government school found better when compared with private school on balancing ability.

This image segmentation method uses superpixels as the operation units instead of pixels. In this work, the input image is first preprocessed by filtering the input image using weighted trimmed median filter. Then superpixels are generated by using simple linear iterative clustering algorithm. Three rules which were derived from the famous Gestalt laws were used to manage different kinds of features extracted from the SAR images. These features were used to represent the superpixel context. They serve as top-down constraints to guide the superpixel merging. The features such as brightness, texture, edges and spatial information describe the superpixels of SAR images. An unequal merging algorithm is used to merge the superpixels. The unequal merging algorithm consists of two stages 1) coarse merging stage and 2) fine merging stage. The unequal merging algorithm allocates computation resources unequally. It spends less running time for superpixels without ambiguity and more running time for superpixels with ambiguity. The coarse merging stage and fine merging stages can make a balance between computation speed and segmentation accuracy. The feature similarity and unequal merging method can obtain good segmentation results and successfully reduce running time.. of false segmentation. In [3], brightness is used to discriminate ice from water and texture is used to identify distinct ice types. In [6], region growing technique is used along with MRF model and it suppressed the merging between different objects that had weak boundaries in between.
