The Future of Social Work: Seven Pillars of Practice
No full textSocial media and the digital revolution have fundamentally changed the meaning of social and work. Social work, like all other professions, will undergo dramatic changes as apps and algorithms overtake human operations. The failure of social sciences in general and social work in particular warrants thoughtful innovations that ensure sustainable services.
The author believes altruism is professionally unattainable until social work is completely re-founded. The Future of Social Work discusses seven new algorithms of social practice that challenge the existing model of social work education and offers a new perspective for radical transformation of the entire system. The book warns against academic complacence and shows how this radical transformation is necessary in order to prevent inevitable alienation, avarice, and anger in a techno-scientific world.https://repository.lsu.edu/facultybooks/1012/thumbnail.jp
Image segmentation using hybrid clustering with GA and finding the tumor area in image
No full textIn this study, to enhance the execution and diminish the many-sided quality includes in the therapeutic picture division process, we have researched Berkeley wavelet change (BWT) based cerebrum tumor division. Moreover, to enhance the precision and quality rate of the help vector machine (SVM) based classifier, significant highlights are removed from each divided tissue. The test aftereffects of proposed system have been assessed and approved for execution and quality examination on attractive reverberation cerebrum pictures, in light of exactness, affectability, specificity, and dice comparability list coefficient. The trial comes about accomplished 96.51% exactness, 94.2% specificity, and 97.72% affectability, showing the viability of the proposed system for recognizing typical and unusual tissues from mind MR pictures. The exploratory outcomes likewise got a normal of 0.82 dice similitude list coefficient, which demonstrates better cover between the computerized (machines) separated tumor locale with physically removed tumor area by radiologists. The reenactment comes about demonstrate the noteworthiness as far as quality parameters and exactness in contrast with best in class strategies.</jats:p
Epidermoid cyst in inguinal canal: A rare presentation
No full textThe patients presenting with lump in inguinal area are mostly suspected as hernias. Epidermoid cyst commonly presenting in head and neck region rarely may develop from inguinal canal structures. We present here a rare case of epidermoid cyst measuring 7×8 cm as a content of inguinal canal diagnosed by ultrasonography. Surgical excision was done and confirmed as epidermoid cyst by histopathology. We conclude that cutaneous cysts in inguinal area may be a presentation and should be kept in mind for differential diagnosis
