Shining a Light on Solar Power Forecasting: Machine Learning Techniques for Unprecedented Accuracy Mamta, Ajish Mangot, Abhishek Kumar, Anupam Baliyan Proceedings International Conference on Technological Advancements in Computational Sciences Ictacs 2023, 2023 Accurate solar power forecasting is critical for efficient energy management and grid integration. This study looks into how to forecast solar power using weather forecast data and machine learning methods. Several machine learning models have been proposed to forecast solar power, including Artificial Neural Networks, Random Forests, Support Vector Regressions, Gradient Boosting, and Hybrid AI models. However, the proposed Deep Belief Networks (DBNs) model has several advantages over conventional machine learning models, including its capacity to learn intricate patterns and relationships in the data, lowering the requirement for manual feature engineering, and scalability for both short- and long-term forecasting. The comparison table and accuracy metrics show that the suggested model performs better in terms of accuracy than conventional models and takes less time to run. The proposed model provides valuable insights into the optimal design and implementation of solar power forecasting systems, supporting the transition to a sustainable energy future.
Prevalence and pattern of phantom ringing and phantom vibration among medical interns and their relationship with smartphone use and perceived stress Ajish G. Mangot, Vasantmeghna S. Murthy, Sharad V. Kshirsagar, Ajay H. Deshmukh, Dinesh V. Tembe Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine, 2018 Background: Phantom sensations like phantom vibration (PV) and phantom ringing (PR)— the sensations of vibration and ringing of the phone when they are not, respectively—are among the latest in the category of “techno-pathology” to receive global attention. This study was conducted with the aim to estimate the prevalence of such sensations among medical interns and their association with perceived stress levels and smartphone usage pattern. Materials and Methods: Ninety-three medical interns using smartphone were recruited for the study. Data were collected anonymously using semi-structured questionnaire, perceived stress scale (PSS), and smartphone addiction scale-short version (SAS-SV). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, independent t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results: Fifty-nine percent students had a high level of stress, whereas 40% had problematic smartphone use. Sixty percent students experienced PV, whereas 42% experienced PR and both were significantly associated with higher frequency of phone use and the use of vibration mode. Mean SAS-SV score was significantly lower in students who did not perceive PR/PV, whereas mean PSS score was significantly lower in students who did not perceive PV. Conclusion: This study confirms findings from other national and international researches about the experience of cell phone phantom sensations and their relationship with the pattern of phone use and stress level. It also brings to light high levels of stress and problematic smartphone use among medical students during the internship.

Add-on aripiprazole for atypical antipsychotic-induced, clinically significant hyperprolactinemia Dhanya Raveendranthan, Naren P. Rao, >Mukund G. Rao, Ajish G. Mangot, Shivaram Varambally, et al. Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine, 2018 Background: Antipsychotic treatment-induced hyperprolactinemia is a highly distressing and disabling side effect for patients. The use of add-on aripiprazole has been identified as a possible treatment strategy in this situation. However, data on prolactin changes with add-on aripiprazole in a real-world naturalistic clinical setting from India are sparse. Materials and Methods: The retrospective chart review was conducted at the specialty metabolic clinic at the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences, Bengaluru, India. Sixteen patients (female: male = 13:3) who were on a stable dose of antipsychotic medications, complaining of either sexual dysfunction or menstrual irregularities, were prescribed add-on aripiprazole. The serum prolactin values were obtained before the initiation of aripiprazole and during the follow-up. Results: Patients were on treatment with risperidone, amisulpride, and olanzapine and had a prolactin level of 87.1 ± 60.7 ng/ml. Add-on aripiprazole treatment was given with a mean dose of 13.8 ± 7.4 mg/day. Patients had a significant reduction in prolactin level (35.6 ± 29.1 ng/ml) following treatment with aripiprazole (P = 0.004). Conclusions: Add-on aripiprazole could be a clinically useful strategy in patients who develop antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinemia.
Prevalence and pattern of misconceptions about semen loss and sexual prowess among male medical interns A. Mangot, F. Siddiqui, V. Murthy Medical Journal of Dr D Y Patil University, 2017 Introduction: Sexual misconceptions have been around in India for a very long time. Growing liberal attitudes toward sex and sexual permissiveness can be expected to occur in the context of improved sexual knowledge among people. However, sexual myths continue to remain rampant. Therefore, the present study was planned with the aim to assess the level of sexual misconceptions regarding semen loss prevalent among male medical interns. Participants and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study among unmarried male medical students doing an internship. Eighty-one interns were recruited after fulfilling predecided inclusion/exclusion criteria and were asked to complete a specially made questionnaire to assess their sexual beliefs anonymously in complete privacy. Responses were analyzed using frequency distribution. Results: Seventy-nine percent of the participants believed that loss of semen can lead to reduction in the size of the penis, while 44.44% (n = 36) believed that it leads to sexual weakness, 56.8% (n = 46) believed it can lead to physical weakness, and 56.8% (n = 46) believed that excess masturbation can decrease sexual prowess. Discussion: This study helps bring to light the prevalence of sexual misconceptions among medical interns in spite of reaching a stage where they are expected to have sound conceptual, theoretical, and practical knowledge about sexual health and wellbeing. There is a dearth of national and international studies exploring the sociocultural aspects of sexuality specifically among medical students. The findings from this study are expected to stimulate researchers and academicians into further exploring the aspect of sexuality among the young medical fraternity.
Ethical aspects of surreptitious use of disulfiram Ajish G. Mangot Journal of Substance Use, 2017 Disulfiram has been in use for treating alcohol dependence since last more than 6 decades with good results. It is usually prescribed after taking informed consent from the patient. In India, it is increasingly being prescribed by quacks and general practitioners without appropriate knowledge at the behest of the family members. It seems ethically incorrect considering it doesn’t fulfil the ethical and moral principle of patient autonomy. But looking at the issue from the perspective of autonomy of family members, it is often a desperate attempt to salvage their families. Relatives are often ready to bear the potential, often serious, side effects of disulfiram provided it ensures abstinence or at least significantly decreased consumption. Should we turn a blind eye when it comes to surreptitious use of disulfiram to alcohol dependent patients, especially if the benefits outweigh the potential risks, thereby giving precedence to beneficence and non-maleficence? Does end justify the means, or is it a strategy to subordinate the individual values to the values of family or society? An in-depth review of existing policies about philosophical aspects of practicing medicine and psychiatry is warranted by doctors and law enforcers including stricter policies for manufacturing, distributing and prescribing disulfiram.
Psychiatric aspects of phosphodiesterases: An overview AjishG Mangot, VasantmeghnaS Murthy Indian Journal of Pharmacology, 2015 Phosphodiesterases (PDE) are exciting new targets in medical sciences. These enzymes are some of the key mediators of cellular functions in the body and hence are attractive sites for drug-induced modulations. With the finding that Tofisopam, a new anxiolytic, inhibits PDEs, the authors were inspired to look into the role of PDE and drugs acting on them in psychiatry. Hence, the review was undertaken. We found several research materials available highlighting the role of PDE in cellular functions and the possible newer etiological mechanisms of neuropsychiatric illnesses such as schizophrenia, depression/anxiety disorders, and cognitive dysfunction involving PDEs. We also found that there are many molecules acting on PDEs, which have the potential to alter the way we treat mental illnesses today. This article is intended to provide an in-depth look at these enzymes so that more cost-effective therapeutic molecules may be synthesized and marketed in India for managing mental illnesses.
