    Abstract Much work has been done in the computer vision domain for the problem of facial mask detection to curb the spread of the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Preventive measures developed using deep learning-based models have got enormous attention. With the state-of-the-art results touching perfect accuracies on various models and datasets, two very practical problems are still not addressed - the deployability of the model in the real world and the crucial cases of incorrectly worn masks. To this end, our method proposes a lightweight deep learning model with just 0.12M parameters having up to 496 times reduction as compared to some of the existing models. Our novel architecture of the deep learning model is designed for practical implications in the real world. We also augment an existing dataset with a large set of incorrectly masked face images leading to a more balanced three-class classification problem. A large collection of 25296 synthetically designed incorrect face mask images are provided. This is the first of its kind of data to be proposed with equal diversity and quantity. The proposed model achieves a competitive accuracy of 95.41% on two class classification and 95.54% on the extended three class classification with minimum number of parameters in comparison. The performance of the proposed system is assessed with various state-of-the-art literature and experimental results indicate that our solution is more realistic and rational than many existing works which use overly massive models unsuitable for practical deployability.

    Abstract Solid waste management is one of the biggest challenges of the current era. The combustible fractions in the waste stream turn out to be a good energy source if converted into refuse-derived fuel. Researchers worldwide are successfully converting it into fuel. However, certain challenges are associated with its application in gasifiers, boilers, etc. to co-fire it with coal. These include high moisture content, low calorific value, and difficulty to transport and store. The present study proposed torrefaction as a pretreatment of the waste by heating it in the range of 200 °C-300 °C in the absence of oxygen at atmospheric pressure. The combustible fraction from the waste stream consisting of wood, textile, paper, carton, and plastics termed as mixed waste was collected and torrefied at 225 °C, 250 °C, 275 °C, and 300 °C for 15 and 30 min each. It was observed that the mass yield and energy yield decreased to 45% and 62.96% respectively, but the energy yield tended to increase by the ratio of 1.39. Proximate analysis showed that the moisture content and volatile matter decreased for torrefied samples, whereas the ash content and fixed carbon content increased. Similarly, the elemental analysis revealed that the carbon content increased around 23% compared to raw samples with torrefaction contrary to hydrogen and oxygen, which decreased. Moreover, the higher heating value (HHV) of the torrefied samples increased around 1.3 times as compared to the raw sample. This pretreatment can serve as an effective solution to the current challenges and enhance refuse-derived fuel's fuel properties.

    Abstract Background: Nigeria is among the countries with a high number of annual maternal deaths partly due to low utilization of maternal health services (MHS).
    Objective: This study aimed to explore whether there is an association between women's level of education and the appropriate use of antenatal and delivery services.
    Method: A quantitative cross-sectional study was used to analyze the Nigerian Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) data. Information from 33,385 women aged 15 - 49 years was analyzed using Bivariate Pearson Chi square test and multiple logistic regressions.
    Results: Education is statistically associated with the number of antenatal clinic visits made (AOR = 3.208; CI 2.875 - 3.578; p < .0001) and the place of delivery (AOR = 2.009; CI 1.449 - 2.785; p < .0001) even after controlling for availability of skilled health workers, parity, income, religion, age and distance.
    Conclusion: A long term investment in girls' education will improve income, interaction with health care providers, level of autonomy to seek and pay for appropriate MHS and ultimately use of MHS and positive pregnancy outcomes.
