Improved Adaptive Routing for Multihop IEEE 802.15.6 Wireless Body Area Networks

Shariar Imtiaz, Md. Mosaddek Khan, Md. Mamun-or-Rashid, Md. Mustafizur Rahman

Статья научная

Wireless Body Area Network has the ability to collect and send data on body measurement to the server through PDA or other device. Nodes (sensors) collect vital signs from the body or environmental factor and check them. In IEEE 802.15.6 routing is discussed as a part of the link layer where multihop is not fully considered. Improving network performance, reducing energy consumption, thus extending the network lifetime is the main challenge in BANs. Several studies mention that multihop for BANs helps for achieving network performance, reducing energy consumption and extending network lifetime. One work presents the Adaptive multihop tree-based Routing (AMR) protocol that is extensively evaluated in a real testbed deployment. They use fuzzy logic to combine all metrics they use. Another limitation is that they have used Prim's algorithm which is not a realistic approach. So in this work we have improved their multihop tree-based Routing (AMR) protocol using Kruskal's algorithm instead of Prim's algorithm. The time complexity of Kruskal's algorithm is way less than prims's algorithm. We have used network simulator 3 (NS3) to simulate and found that our algorithm is better than AMR if many of nodes.

Improved Harmony Search with Chaos for Solving Linear Assignment Problems

Improved Harmony Search with Chaos for Solving Linear Assignment Problems

Osama Abdel-Raouf, Mohamed Abdel-Baset, Ibrahim El-henawy

Статья научная

This paper presents an improved version of a harmony meta-heuristic algorithm, (IHSCH), for solving the linear assignment problem. The proposed algorithm uses chaotic behavior to generation a candidate solution in a behavior similar to acoustic monophony. Numerical results show that the IHSCH is able to obtain the optimal results in comparison with traditional methods (the Hungarian method). However, the benefit of the proposed algorithm is its ability to obtain the optimal solution within less computation in comparison with the Hungarian method.

Improved K-means Clustering based Distribution Planning on a Geographical Network

Manju Mam, Leena G, N S Saxena

Статья научная

This paper presents a distribution planning on a geographical network, using improved K-means clustering algorithm and is compared with the conventional Euclidean distance based K-means clustering algorithm. The distribution planning includes optimal placement of substation, minimization of expansion cost, optimization of network parameters such as network topology, routing of single/multiple feeders, and reduction in network power losses. The improved K-means clustering is an iterative weighting factor based optimization algorithm which locates the substation optimally and improves the voltage drop at each node. For feeder routing shortest path based algorithm is proposed and the modified load flow method is used to calculate the active and reactive power losses in the network. Simulation is performed on 54 nodes based geographical network with load points and the results obtained show significant power loss minimization as compared to the conventional K-means clustering algorithm.

Improved Krill Herd Algorithm with Neighborhood Distance Concept for Optimization

Improved Krill Herd Algorithm with Neighborhood Distance Concept for Optimization

Prasun Kumar Agrawal, Manjaree Pandit, Hari Mohan Dubey

Статья научная

Krill herd algorithm (KHA) is a novel nature inspired (NI) optimization technique that mimics the herding behavior of krill, which is a kind of fish found in nature. The mathematical model of KHA is based on three phenomena observed in the behavior of a herd of krills, which are, moment induced by other krill, foraging motion and random physical diffusion. These three key features of the algorithm provide a good balance between global and local search capability, which makes the algorithm very powerful. The objective is to minimize the distance of each krill from the food source and also from the point of highest density of the herd, which helps in convergence of population around the food source. Improvisation has been made by introducing neighborhood distance concept along with genetic reproduction mechanism in basic KH Algorithm. KHA with mutation and crossover is called as (KHAMC) and KHA with neighborhood distance concept is referred here as (KHAMCD). This paper compares the performance of the KHA with its two improved variants KHAMC and KHAMCD. The performance of the three algorithms is compared on eight benchmark functions and also on two real world economic load dispatch (ELD) problems of power system. Results are also compared with recently reported methods to establish robustness, validity and superiority of the KHA and its variant algorithms.

Improved method of López-Dahab-Montgomery scalar point multiplication in binary elliptic curve cryptography

Zhengbing Hu, Ivan Dychka, Mykola Onai, Mykhailo Ivaschenko, Su Jun

Статья научная

As elliptic curve cryptography is one of the popular ways of constructing an encoding and decoding processes, public-key algorithms as its basis provide people a comfortable way of exchanging pieces of encoded information. As the time goes by, a lot of algorithms have emerged, some of them are still in use today; some others are still being developed into new forms. The main point of algorithm innovation is to reduce the number of processed operations during every possible step to find maximum efficiency and highest speed while performing the calculations. This article describes an improved method of the López-Dahab-Montgomery (LD-Montgomery) scalar point multiplication in terms of working with binary elliptic curves. It is shown in the article that the possible improvement lies in reordering the set of operations which is used in LD-Montgomery scalar point multiplication algorithm. The algorithm is used to compute point multiplication results of the curves over binary Galois Fields featuring the following m values: . The article also presents the experimental results based on different scalars.

Improvement of GVSRM with Addressing the Interoperability Issues in Global Village

Improvement of GVSRM with Addressing the Interoperability Issues in Global Village

Mohammad Reza Mollahoseini Ardakani, Seyyed Mohsen Hashemi

Статья научная

In today's globally networked environment, enterprises need collaborating using Information Technology (IT) and other tools to succeed in this dynamic and heterogeneous business environment. The Global Village Services Reference Model (GVSRM) is a model based on SOSA (Service Oriented Strategies and Architectures) ontology for global village services realization. In this model, three architectural abstraction layers have been considered for global village: ‘infrastructure for global village services’, ‘global village services provisioning’, and ‘using global village services’. Despite of relative completeness of this model, one of its obvious shortcomings is lack of attention to the crucial issue of interoperability in the global village. Based on this model, the grid of global village is comprised of VHGs (Virtual Holding Governance). The VHG is a temporary, scalable, dynamic cluster/association comprising of existing or newly service provider organizations which its aim is satisfying the requirements of global village actors through electronic processes. In this paper, we will propose a federated approach for interoperability among the VHGs of the global village and then improve the GVSRM by adding the corresponding interoperability components to it.

Improvement the Dynamic Voltage Profile by a Voltage Stabilizer in Microgrids with a Type of Inverter Based Resource

Maedeh Mahzarnia, Abdolreza Sheikholeslami

Статья научная

The electrical distances between reactive power sources and the loads that need reactive compensation are not too much in microgrids. Thus, a coordinated compensation of reactive sources should be implemented to avoid a fast voltage collapse and improve the dynamic voltage profile by proposing a MicroGrid Voltage Stabilizer (MGVS). This stabilizer was used in microgrids with synchronous machine based resources. Main purpose of this research is verify the performance of the stabilizer by applying it to microgrids containing power-electronic converter based distributed generations (DGs). So that a 21-bus IEEE microgrid with three photovoltaic (PV) resources is tested. At first, PV resource and all of its needed equipments, are modeled. Then a control model of the stabilizer with appropriate parameters, is presented. Voltage deficiency of the system is the input of the stabilizer, and the output signal of the stabilizer, is divided between the DGs in order to provide required reactive power. The dynamic voltage profile of buses in presence of MGVS and its absence has been compared by implying disturbances. Simulation results in MATLAB/SIMULINK show that the dynamic voltage profile of buses improves satisfactorily with the addition of MGVS.

Improving Cloud Data Encryption Using Customized Genetic Algorithm

Improving Cloud Data Encryption Using Customized Genetic Algorithm

Muhammad Junaid Arshad, Muhammad Umair, Saima Munawar, Nasir Naveed, Humaira Naeem

Статья научная

Data Encryption is widely utilized for ensuring data privacy, integrity, and confidentiality. Nowadays, a large volume of data is uploaded to the cloud, which increases its vulnerability and adds to security breaches. These security breaches include circumstances where sensitive information is being exposed to third parties or any access to sensitive information by unauthorized personnel. The objective of this research is to propose a method for improving encryption by customizing the genetic algorithm (GA) with added steps of encryption. These added steps of encryption include the data being processed with local information (chromosome's value calculated with computer-generated random bits without human intervention). The improvement in the randomness of the key generated is based on altering the population size, number of generations, and mutation rate. The first step of encrypting is to convert sample data into binary form. Once the encryption process is complete, this binary result is converted back to get the encrypted data or cipher-text. Foremost, the GA operators (population size, number of generations, and mutation rate) are changed to determine the optimal values of each operator to bring forth a random key in the minimum possible time, then local intelligence is headed in the algorithm to further improve the outcomes. Local Intelligence consists of local information and a random bit generated in each iteration. Local Information is the current value of a parent in each iteration at the gene level. Both local information and random bit are then applied in a mathematical pattern to generate a randomized key. The local intelligence-based algorithm can operate better in terms of time with the same degree of randomness that is generated with the conventional GA technique. The result showed that the proposed method is at least 80% more efficient in terms of time while generating the secret key with the same randomness level as generated by a conventional GA. Therefore, when large data are intended to be encrypted, then using local intelligence can demonstrate to be better utilized time.

Improving classification by using MASI algorithm for resampling imbalanced dataset

Thuy Nguyen Thi Thu, Lich Nghiem Thi, Nguyen Thu Thuy, Toan Nghiem Thi, Nguyen Chi Trung

Статья научная

At present, financial fraud detection is interested by many machine learning researchers. This is because of existing a big ratio between normal transactions and abnormal ones in data set. Therefore, a good result of prediction rate does not mean that there is a good detection result. This is explained that the experimental result might be effected by the imbalance in the dataset. Resampling a dataset before putting to classification process can be seen as the required task for researching in financial fraud detection area. An algorithm, so-called as MASI, is proposed in this paper in order to improve the classification results. This algorithm breaks the imbalance in the data set by re-labelling the major class samples (normal transactions) to the minor class ones basing the nearest neighbor’s samples. This algorithm has been validated with UCI machine learning repository data domain. Then, the algorithm is also used with data domain, which is taken from a Vietnamese financial company. The results show the better in sensitivity, specificity, and G-mean values compared to other publication control methods (Random Over-sampling, Random Under-sampling, SMOTE and Borderline SMOTE). The MASI also remains the training dataset whereas other methods do not. Moreover, the classifiers using MASI resampling training dataset have detected better number of abnormal transactions compared to the one using no resampling algorithm (normal training data).

Indeterminacy Handling of Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System Using Neutrosophic Set Theory: A Case Study for the Classification of Diabetes Mellitus

Indeterminacy Handling of Adaptive Neuro-fuzzy Inference System Using Neutrosophic Set Theory: A Case Study for the Classification of Diabetes Mellitus

Rajan Prasad, Praveen Kumar Shukla

Статья научная

Early diabetes diagnosis allows patients to begin treatment on time, reducing or eliminating the risk of serious consequences. In this paper, we propose the Neutrosophic-Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (N-ANFIS) for the classification of diabetes. It is an extension of the generic ANFIS model. Neutrosophic logic is capable of handling the uncertain and imprecise information of the traditional fuzzy set. The suggested method begins with the conversion of crisp values to neutrosophic sets using a trapezoidal and triangular neutrosophic membership function. These values are fed into an inferential system, which compares the most impacted value to a diagnosis. The result demonstrates that the suggested model has successfully dealt with vague information. For practical implementation, a single-value neutrosophic number has been used; it is a special case of the neutrosophic set. To highlight the promising potential of the suggested technique, an experimental investigation of the well-known Pima Indian diabetes dataset is presented. The results of our trials show that the proposed technique attained a high degree of accuracy and produced a generic model capable of effectively classifying previously unknown data. It can also surpass some of the most advanced classification algorithms based on machine learning and fuzzy systems.

Łukasz Kubuś

Статья научная

Limited applicability of classical optimization methods influence the popularization of stochastic optimization techniques such as evolutionary algorithms (EAs). EAs are a class of probabilistic optimization techniques inspired by natural evolution process, witch belong to methods of Computational Intelligence (CI). EAs are based on concepts of natural selection and natural genetics. The basic principle of EA is searching optimal solution by processing population of individuals. This paper presents the results of simulation analysis of global optimization of benchmark function by Individually Directional Evolutionary Algorithm (IDEA) and other EAs such as Real Coded Genetic Algorithm (RCGA), elite RCGA with the one elite individual, elite RCGA with the number of elite individuals equal to population size. IDEA is a newly developed algorithm for global optimization. Main principle of IDEA is to monitor and direct the evolution of selected individuals of population to explore promising areas in the search space. The idea of IDEA is an independent evolution of individuals in current population. This process is focused on indicating correct direction of changes in the elements of solution vector. This paper presents a flowchart, selection method and genetic operators used in IDEA. Moreover, similar mechanisms and genetic operators are also discussed.

Статья научная

The indoor wireless communication in general, suffers from several challenges like, signal reflection, diffraction, and attenuation. With these problems, the error range is increased significantly and the accuracy will be lost. To address those problems, Mini Zone (MZ)e technique propos in this paper which aim to partition building into small areas lead to more simplicity and flexibility to assign suitable parameters for specific area rather than whole building. To do that, case study building separated to seven zone (A-G). Each zone has its specific characteristics related to its contents such as, objects, walls, windows and any types of materials in addition to the distance between transmitters and each zone. We took in account these specific parameters to estimate the correct position. 56 receivers (8 for each zone) and 3 transmitters deployed in the case study building. The Wireless Insite Package has been used to design the chosen building and measure the required parameters. The target position has been estimated depending on RSS and ToA methods The objectives of this study are to implement a dynamic system that has capabilities to estimate position under deference conditions like LOS or NLO with the same accuracy. In addition, study the suitability of TOA and RSS methods to estimate position. These objectives were done based on the proposed technique by decrease error in the whole system to an acceptable level to be (0.293502m). Also, the results confirm that the TOA method was better than RSS by using propos technique.

Influence of GUJarati STEmmeR in Supervised Learning of Web Page Categorization

Chandrakant D. Patel, Jayesh M. Patel

Статья научная

With the large quantity of information offered on-line, it's equally essential to retrieve correct information for a user query. A large amount of data is available in digital form in multiple languages. The various approaches want to increase the effectiveness of on-line information retrieval but the standard approach tries to retrieve information for a user query is to go looking at the documents within the corpus as a word by word for the given query. This approach is incredibly time intensive and it's going to miss several connected documents that are equally important. So, to avoid these issues, stemming has been extensively utilized in numerous Information Retrieval Systems (IRS) to extend the retrieval accuracy of all languages. These papers go through the problem of stemming with Web Page Categorization on Gujarati language which basically derived the stem words using GUJSTER algorithms [1]. The GUJSTER algorithm is based on morphological rules which is used to derived root or stem word from inflected words of the same class. In particular, we consider the influence of extracted a stem or root word, to check the integrity of the web page classification using supervised machine learning algorithms. This research work is intended to focus on the analysis of Web Page Categorization (WPC) of Gujarati language and concentrate on a research problem to do verify the influence of a stemming algorithm in a WPC application for the Gujarati language with improved accuracy between from 63% to 98% through Machine Learning supervised models with standard ratio 80% as training and 20% as testing

Influences of the Front Wheel Steering Angle on Vehicle Handling and Stability and a Control Theory of Steady-state

Chuanbo Ren, Cuicui Zhang, Lin Liu

Статья научная

In this paper, motion differential equation of the two degrees of freedom(2-DOF) vehicle is established based on the linear two degrees of freedom vehicle model and is derived without simplifying the front wheel steering angle(FWSA), then we analyze the vehicle's steady-state response , transient response and the amplitude-frequency characteristic of yaw velocity under different FWSA with the help of the matlab software and finally compare the results with the simplified ones to determine how the FWSA influences the level of the vehicle handling and stability(VHS). At the same time in order to better improve the VHS, this paper proposes a set of active control theory to optimize vehicle’s steady-state performance.The results show that: while the FWSA is small, it has a less influence on vehicle handling and stability, the FWSA is large,it has a greater influence on vehicle handling and stability and the active control can make the vehicle in the best response state when it is in the steady-state.

The goal of designing and implementing an intelligent information system for the recognition and classification of sound signals is to create an effective solution at the software level, which would allow analysis, recognition, classification and forecasting of sound signals in megacities and smart cities using machine learning methods. This system can help people in various fields to simplify their lives, for example, it can help farmers protect their crops from animals, in the military it can help with the identification of weapons and the search for flying objects, such as drones or missiles, in the future there is a possibility for recognizing the distance to sound, also, in cities can help with security, so a preventive response system can be built, which can check if everything is in order based on sounds. Also, it can make life easier for people with impaired hearing to detect danger in everyday life. In the part of the comparison of analogues of the developed product, 4 analogues were found: Shazam, sound recognition from Apple, Vocapia, and SoundHound. A table of comparisons was made for these analogues and the product under development. Also, after comparing analogues, a table for evaluating the effects of the development was built. During the system analysis section, a variety of audio research materials were developed to indicate the characteristics that can be used for this design: period, amplitude, and frequency, and, as an example, an article on real-world audio applications is shown. A precedent scenario is described using the RUP methodology and UML diagrams are constructed: Diagram of use cases; Class diagram; Activity chart; Sequence diagram; Diagram of components; and Deployment diagram. Also, sound data analysis was performed, sound data was visualized as spectrograms and sound waves, which clearly show that the data are different, so it is possible to classify them using machine learning methods. An experimental selection of the machine learning method as staandart clasificers for building a sound recognition model was made. The best method turned out to be SVC, the accuracy of which reflects more than 30 per cent. A neural network was also implemented to improve the obtained results. The result of training a model based on a neural network during 100 epochs achieved a result of 97.7% accuracy for training data and 47.8% accuracy when checking performance on test data. This result should be higher, so it is necessary to consider improving recognition algorithms, increasing the amount of data, and changing the recognition method. Testing of the project was carried out, showing its operation and pointing out shortcomings that need to be corrected in the future.

Статья научная

The classification of Fourier Transform Infrared spectra images is crucial in chemometrics. This paper proposes an efficient model based on deep learning approaches for enhancement and classification of the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectra (FTIR) images. The proposed model integrates three deep learning models including ResNet101, EfficientNetB0, and Wavelet Scattering transform (WST) to extract several features from FTIR. Then the obtained features were fused in conjunction with standard statistical feature extraction. It followed by a subsequent classification phase that employs a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture, which demonstrates high accuracy in classifying the infrared spectra images into six different classes of ligands and their metal complexes. During the training phase, the network’s weights are iteratively updated using the Adam optimization algorithm. This model addresses the challenge of small and imbalanced datasets through an image oversampling process. Using random over-sampling technique, it enhances the training process and overall classification performance. The extracted features were analyzed using t-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE) to visualize high-dimensional data in two dimensions. The results of the proposed model show high classification accuracy of 0.91%, low error rate of 0.08%, a sensitivity of 0.89% and a precision of 0.89%, false positive rate of 0.01%, F1 score of 0.89, Matthews Correlation Coefficient of 0.87 and Kappa of 0.68.
