InVar-100: Industrial Objects in Varied Contexts Dataset
No full textThe Industrial Objects in Varied Contexts (InVar) dataset was internally produced by our team and contains 100 objects in 20800 total images (208 images per class). The objects consist of common automotive, machine and robotics lab parts. Each class contains 4 sub-categories (52 images each) with different attributes and visual complexities. White background (Dwh): The object is against a clean white background and the object is clear, centred and in focus. Stationary Setup (Dst): These images are also taken against a clean background using a stationary camera setup, with uncentered objects at a constant distance. The images have lower DPI resolution with occasional cropping. Handheld (Dha): These images are taken with the user holding the objects, with occasional occluding. Cluttered background (Dcl): These images are taken with the object placed along with other objects from the lab in the background and with no occlusion. The dataset was produced to simulate the miscellaneous issues in industrial setups as discussed. The dataset was produced by our staff at different workstations and labs in Berlin. More details regarding the objects used for digitisation are available in the metadata file

Review of Medicinal Plants Acting as Vrushya (Aphrodisiac Activity) w.r.t Bhavprakash Nighantu
No full textAyurveda is an ancient science and it has a Holistic approach. There are eight branches of Ayurveda mentioned in “Ashtang Ayurved”. One of them being Vrush-Chikitsa (Vajikarana Tantra). The branch deals with Alpa Shukra, Kshina Shukra, Vishushka Retasa, Utpatti, Pushthi and Vruddhi of Shukra Dhatu which can be correlated with modern terminologies such as Oligospermia, Asthenozoospermia, Teratozoospermia, Hypospermia (all are indicative of Defective Seminal parameters) along with ejaculatory defects and helps in spermatogenesis. Thus ‘Vrushya’ indicates the substance by virtue of which a person is capable to act sexually like ‘Vrisha’ (bull). Vrushya has been described as ‘Shukrajanaka’ which can be correlated to spermatogenesis. Whereas, Vajikarana is mentioned as ‘Shukra Pravartanam’ which can be defined as ejaculation which helps in the release of semen from the body. There are many Ayurvedic herbs which have the property of ‘Vrushya’. Infertility is a serious health issue worldwide, affecting approximately 8 -10% of couples worldwide. 40-50% is due to “Male factor” infertility and as many as 2% of all men will exhibit suboptimal sperm parameters. The problem of infertility exists in this day and age and one of the most prominent things of Ayurveda is that a separate branch has been mentioned in “Ashtang Ayurved”, so it is of utmost importance for us as practitioners to find the medicinal plants acting on Shukra Dhatu to tackle this problem. The attempt of this study is to highlight the plants mentioned as Vrushya in Bhavprakash Nighant
Pharmacognostical study of Damanak - Artemisia nilagirica (C.B CLARKE) Pamp.)
No full textDamanak- Artemisia nilagirica is a tall, aromatic, pubescent or villous shrub-like herb found throughout India\u27s hilly regions. The plant has been mentioned in various Nighantu about its use as Hrudya, Vrushya, Grahani, Visha, Kustha, Kleda, Kandu and in Tridosha (disease of all the three Doshas). There are many ethnobotanical uses which indicates this herb should be studied more extensively to confirm these results and reveal other potential therapeutic effects. Davana oil has a deep, mellow, persistent rich fruity odour. Oil of Davana is used in expensive perfume compositions. It is understood that the oil is also being used for flavouring cakes and pastries. This also marks the use of Damanak as commercial plant. The present article intends to study the plant for its pharmacognosy and to know its therapeutic uses mentioned in various Nighantu
