OBD-II Big Data–Driven ML and AI-Based Virtual Sensing for Fuel Economy, Component Health, and Carbon Intelligence
Abstract: The rapid growth of connected vehicles has led to the large-scale availability of high-frequency On-Board Diagnostics II (OBD-II) data; however, much of this data remains underutilised, as existing studies and commercial systems typically address fuel economy, maintenance, or emissions in isolation or rely on additional physical sensors. Such fragmented and sensor-dependent approaches limit scalability and increase system cost, particularly in high-volume and resource-constrained vehicle markets. To address this gap, this …

Management of Kosthasakhashrita Kamala W.S.R. to Hepatocellular Jaundice – A Case Study
Abstract: Kosthasakhāśrit Kamala is a well-recognized clinical entity in Ayurveda and is widely correlated with modern hepatocellular jaundice. The condition arises primarily due to the vitiation of Pitta dosha within the Kostha (gastrointestinal tract), which subsequently spreads to the Sakha (peripheral tissues). Classical texts describe hallmark features such as Haridra Netra (yellowish discoloration of the eyes), yellowish hue of twak and nakha, pitta varṇa of mutra and sakrit (yellow urine and …
