User care at home is a matter of great concern since unforeseen
circumstances might occur that affect people's well-being.
Technologies that assist people in independent living are essential
for enhancing care in a cost-effective and reliable manner.
Assisted care applications often demand real-time observation of
the environment and the resident's activities using an event-driven
system. As an emerging area of research and development, it is
necessary to explore the approaches of the user care system in the
literature to identify current practices for future research
directions. Therefore, this book is aimed at a comprehensive review
of data sources (e.g., sensors) with machine learning for various
smart user care systems. To encourage the readers in the field,
insights of practical essence of different machine learning
algorithms with sensor data (e.g., publicly available datasets) are
also discussed. Some code segments are also included to motivate
the researchers of the related fields to practically implement the
features and machine learning techniques. It is an effort to obtain
knowledge of different types of sensor-based user monitoring
technologies in-home environments. With the aim of adopting these
technologies, research works, and their outcomes are reported.
Besides, up to date references are included for the user monitoring
technologies with the aim of facilitating independent living.
Research that is related to the use of user monitoring technologies
in assisted living is very widespread, but it is still consists
mostly of limited-scale studies. Hence, user monitoring technology
is a very promising field, especially for long-term care. However,
monitoring of the users for smart assisted technologies should be
taken to the next level with more detailed studies that evaluate
and demonstrate their potential to contribute to prolonging the
independent living of people. The target of this book is to
contribute towards that direction.

Horticulture not only deals with ornamental plants but also with
their medicinal values.Aloe Vera having immense potential to prove
itself not only an ornamental plant but also as a medicinal plant
and can be used for curing skin diseases as well as in curing of
cancer patients. Therefore this plant can't be ignored to cultivate
it in fields. This book, therefore, provides an idea how to
cultivate Aloe Vera in field and to get maximum gel production and
Aloe juice that are used for medicinal purposes. Different
parameters are being critically analysed like Gel per leaf, Plant
height and leaf weight etc. Nitrogen and the affect of water are
being checked on the production of Aloe gel and all other contents.
Therefore the book is special in all its fields of concerned
especially the medicinal aspect of horticultural plants. The book
provides an attention towards a plant, being ignored to be
cultivated in fields, of so much importance and that can be an
earning source for the farmers because Aloe Vera has a wide range
of uses in our daily life.
Soil comprising the pedosphere is positioned at the interface of
the lithosphere and biosphere with the atmosphere and hydrosphere.
Soil is considered a three phase system, consisting of solid,
liquid, and gas. The solid phase consists of mineral and organic
matter, including living organisms. The liquid phase is known as
the 'soil solution', and is the phase from which plants take up
nutrients. The gaseous phase is important for supplying oxygen to
the roots for respiration. Agrictural soil of the study area is
very fertile and is a main source of economy for local population.
This deals the investigation of heavy metal in the soil of study
area.The effect of local transportation on the productivity of
vegetables have also been discussed.
