Organized and unorganized physical activity (PA) hold an important role in the daily life of children and adolescents. Regular representative tracking of PA in different settings is important to evaluate social trends and implemented interventions. In this paper, representative PA data of German children and adolescents from the MoMo Baseline-Study (2004, n = 4528) are compared to those of Wave...

Operation Flood and dairy co-operatives emerged in India as the largest rural employment scheme, enabling the modernization of the dairy sector to a level from where it can take off to meet not only the country’s demand for milk and milk products but can also exploit global market opportunities. This study reviews the existing status of milk marketing and dairy co-operatives in India and provid...

Nowadays, the widespread connections among national and international organizations and industries make crisis in one area distress other organizations. One of the sensitive industries is banking industry, which has faced fundamental changes due to the various economic and political crisis in the last decade. Alterations such as exchange rates fluctuations, bankruptcy of unorganized institution...

How does informal economic activity respond to increased financial inclusion? Does it become more entrepreneurial? access new financing options change the gender configuration of and, if so, in what ways and directions? We take advantage nationwide data collected 2010/11 2015/16 by India’s National Sample Survey Office on unorganized (informal) enterprises. This period was one rapid expansion b...

In this paper we propose a novel fast method for implicit surface reconstruction from unorganized point clouds. Our algorithm employs a multigrid solver on a narrow band of the level set function that represents the reconstructed surface, which greatly improves computational efficiency of surface reconstruction. The new model can accurately reconstruct surfaces from noisy unorganized point clou...

We address the problem of assigning consistently oriented normal vectors to unorganized point cloud with noises, non-uniformities, and thinsharp features as a pre-processing step to surface reconstruction. The conventional orienting scheme using minimal spanning tree fails on points with the above defects. Different from the recently developed consolidation technique, our approach does not modi...

Recent literature has not only recognized the implementation limitations of formal regulation, but also appreciated the significance of informal regulation for achieving environmental goals for developing countries. Since most units in developing world fall under unorganized sector, even utility of some of the informal channels like public-disclosures is limited. Under the scenario, a localized...
