Sundaram B.; S. V. National Institute of Technology Pandya , Hitesh R.; S. V. National Institute of Technology Jariwala
The modern state of electrical system consists the conventional generating units along with the sources of renewable energy. The proposed article recommends a method for the solution of single and multi-objective optimal power flow, integrating wind and solar output energy with traditional coal-based generating stations. In the first part of the article, the two wind power plants and one solar PV power plants are incorporated with the thermal power plants. The optimal power flow problem of single and conflicting multi-objectives are taken with this scenario. The second part of the paper, solar power plant is replaced with another wind power plant with the conventional coal-based power plants. The techno-economic analysis are done with this state of electrical system. In proposed work, lognormal and weibull probability distribution functions are also utilized for predicting solar and wind outputs, respectively. A non-dominated multi-objective moth flame optimization technique is used for the optimization issue. The fuzzy decision-making approach is applied for extracting the best compromise solution. The results are validated though adapted IEEE-30 bus test system, which is incorporated with wind and solar generating plants.

A brain tumor is one of a deadly disease that needs high accuracy in its medical surgery. Brain tumor detection can be done through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Image segmentation for the MRI brain tumor aims to separate the tumor area (as the region of interest or ROI) with a healthy brain and provide a clear boundary of the tumor. This study classifies the ROI and non-ROI using fully convolutional network with new architecture, namely UNet-VGG16. This model or architecture is a hybrid of U-Net and VGG16 with transfer Learning to simplify the U-Net architecture. This method has a high accuracy of about 96.1% in the learning dataset. The validation is done by calculating the correct classification ratio (CCR) to comparing the segmentation result with the ground truth. The CCR value shows that this UNet-VGG16 could recognize the brain tumor area with a mean of CCR value is about 95.69%.

A small size patch antenna for replacing TP-LINK WA 701 ND access point (AP) internal antena for 2.4 GHz is proposed. Measurements are carried out on AP external antenna to get the basic parameter of the antenna i.e. return loss, bandwidth, radiation pattern, and polarization. The patch antenna is designed by using IE3D simulator on FR4 material with the thickness of 1.6 mm and the dielectric constant of 4.4. The 42×28×1.6 mm overall size of the designed antenna is printed on FR 4 substrate, measured and compared to external AP antenna. The measurement result shows good agreement between simulation and designed antenna. The printed antenna covers 2.4 GHz, the gain of 2.5 dBi, and has linier polarization. This antenna is much smaller than 190×15×15 mm conventional TP-LINK WA 701 ND AP antennas and allows it to be hidden and integrated on the AP printed circuit board. The comparation of the designed antenna and external AP antenna is also conducted by evaluating both antenna performance on TP-LINK WA 701 ND AP by accessing it on a laptop on different access distance.

Design of freeform lens for WLEDs on the fishing boat

10.12928/telkomnika.v18i3.12085
Nguyen Thi Phuong; Posts and Telecommunications Institute of Technology Loan , Thinh Cong; Ton Duc Thang University Tran
In this article, a free secondary lens is designed for an LED fishing/working lamp (LFWL), which is recommended for the purpose of taking the place of a traditional high-intensity discharge (HID) fishing lamp. To serve the lighting needs of fishing and the on-board activities on fishing boats, the innovative LED lamp is proposed. To make the freeform lens in our optics design process, we depended on Gaussian decomposition. In this way, it is easy to approach the targeted light intensity distribution curve (LIDC) of the LFWL lens. The simulated results show that the performance of the LED fishing/working lamps is much better than that of HID fishing lamps for illumination onboard, on the sea-surface, and underwater. Meanwhile, a lighting efficiency of 91% with the power consumption reduction of more than 50% can be achieved when the proposed LED fishing/working lamps are used instead of the HID fishing lamps.

Flood is one of the most common hazards in Malaysia. Flood effects can be local, or very large, affecting the neighborhood or community and entire river basins. This flood develops slowly; sometimes over a period of days while sometimes develop quickly in just few minutes. With the real time flood information, it will allow public safety organizations and other emergency managers to effectively plan their resource deployment within the limited time of alert. Hence, this project aims to design the solar powered flood alert warning system by using solar energy as the power supply. This system will send message using GSM to the residents to notify them about the flood occurred. In this project, three LEDs were used to indicate the height of the water levels which are safe, alert and danger conditions. Each of the height have different water level that indicates the level of safety for each condition.

This paper provides an insight of a new, microstrip leaky wave antenna. It holds the ability to continue steer its beam at a swapping frequency. This is done with acceptable impedance matching while scanning and very little gain variation. Investigation is carried out on LWAs’ control radiation pattern in steps at a band frequency via vertical and horizontal slots. The enhancement is realized by etching horizontal and vertical slots on the radiation element. This study also presents a novel half-width microstrip leaky wave antenna (LWA). The antenna is made up of the following basic structures group’s vertical and horizontal slots. The reactance profile at the microstrip’s free edge and thus the main beam direction is changed once the control-cell states are changed. The radiation pattern direction changes by sweeping the operating frequency between 4 GHz to 6 GHz.The main beam may be directed by the antenna between 15o and 55o. C band achieved the measured peak gain of the antenna of 10 dBi at 4.3 GHz beam scanning range.

Towards optimize-ESA for text semantic similarity: A case study of biomedical text

10.11591/ijece.v10i3.pp2934-2943
Khaoula Mrhar , Mounia Abik
Explicit Semantic Analysis (ESA) is an approach to measure the semantic relatedness between terms or documents based on similarities to documents of a references corpus usually Wikipedia. ESA usage has received tremendous attention in the field of natural language processing NLP and information retrieval. However, ESA utilizes a huge Wikipedia index matrix in its interpretation by multiplying a large matrix by a term vector to produce a high-dimensional vector. Consequently, the ESA process is too expensive in interpretation and similarity steps. Therefore, the efficiency of ESA will slow down because we lose a lot of time in unnecessary operations. This paper propose enhancements to ESA called optimize-ESA that reduce the dimension at the interpretation stage by computing the semantic similarity in a specific domain. The experimental results show clearly that our method correlates much better with human judgement than the full version ESA approach.

One of the human diseases with a high rate of mortality each year is breast cancer (BC). Among all the forms of cancer, BC is the commonest cause of death among women globally. Some of the effective ways of data classification are data mining and classification methods. These methods are particularly efficient in the medical field due to the presence of irrelevant and redundant attributes in medical datasets. Such redundant attributes are not needed to obtain an accurate estimation of disease diagnosis. Teaching learning-based optimization (TLBO) is a new metaheuristic that has been successfully applied to several intractable optimization problems in recent years. This paper presents the use of a multi-objective TLBO algorithm for the selection of feature subsets in automatic BC diagnosis. For the classification task in this work, the logistic regression (LR) method was deployed. From the results, the projected method produced better BC dataset classification accuracy (classified into malignant and benign). This result showed that the projected TLBO is an efficient features optimization technique for sustaining data-based decision-making systems.

This paper presents simulation and modeling of two-level DC/DC boost converter using system identification technique. The main objective is to identify the unknown mathematical model from designated converter that has 2 modes of operation. Signals from the converter were processed based on the impulse response from input and output voltages, which were in time domain data. Auto Regressive with eXogenous (ARX), Auto Regressive Moving Average with eXogenous (ARMAX), and Output-Error (OE) model structure techniques had been employed to generate a model from the converter, whose validation was based on coefficient of determination (R2) or best fits criterion. The result shows that the ARX model structure produced the best model with 94.03%, compared to ARMAX and OE with 93.70% and 92.25% respectively. In terms of stability for open-loop analysis, the ARX model structure gave the most stable system.

Schizophrenia is a mental illness with a very bad impact on sufferers, attacking the part of human brain that disables the ability to think clearly. In 2018, Rustam and Rampisela classified Schizophrenia by using Northwestern University Schizophrenia Data, based on 66 variables consisting of group, demographic, and questionnaires statistics, based on the scale for the assessment of negative symptoms (SANS), and scale for the assessment of positive symptoms (SAS), and then classifiers that used are SVM with Gaussian kernel and Twin SVM with linear and Gaussian kernel. Furthermore, this research is novel based on the use of random forest as a classifier, in order to predict Schizophrenia. The result obtained is reported in percentage of accuracy, both in training and testing of random forest, which was 100%. This classification, therefore, shows the best value in contrast with prior methods, even though only 40% of training data set was used. This is very important, especially in the cases of rare disease, including schizophrenia.

N-gram based language models are very popular and extensively used statistical methods for solving various natural language processing problems including grammar checking. Smoothing is one of the most effective techniques used in building a language model to deal with data sparsity problem. Kneser-Ney is one of the most prominently used and successful smoothing technique for language modelling. In our previous work, we presented a Witten-Bell smoothing based language modelling technique for checking grammatical correctness of Bangla sentences which showed promising results outperforming previous methods. In this work, we proposed an improved method using Kneser-Ney smoothing based n-gram language model for grammar checking and performed a comparative performance analysis between Kneser-Ney and Witten-Bell smoothing techniques for the same purpose. We also provided an improved technique for calculating the optimum threshold which further enhanced the the results. Our experimental results show that, Kneser-Ney outperforms Witten-Bell as a smoothing technique when used with n-gram LMs for checking grammatical correctness of Bangla sentences.

Developments in computer networking have raised concerns of the associated Botnets threat to the Internet security. Botnet is an inter-connected computers or nodes that infected with malicious software and being controlled as a group without any permission of the computer’s owner. This paper explores how network traffic characterising can be used for identification of botnet at local networks. To analyse the characteristic, behaviour or pattern of the botnet in the network traffic, a proper network analysing tools is needed. Several network analysis tools available today are used for the analysis process of the network traffic. In the analysis phase, the botnet detection strategy based on the signature and DNS anomaly approach are selected to identify the behaviour and the characteristic of the botnet. In anomaly approach most of the behavioural and characteristic identification of the botnet is done by comparing between the normal and anomalous traffic. The main focus of the network analysis is studied on UDP protocol network traffic. Based on the analysis of the network traffic, the following anomalies are identified, anomalous DNS packet request, the NetBIOS attack, anomalous DNS MX query, DNS amplification attack and UDP flood attack. This study, identify significant Botnet characteristic in local network traffic for UDP network as additional approach for Botnet detection mechanism.

Alies Poetri Lintangsari , Ive Emaliana
Implementing inclusive education, the process of providing all learners with equal educational opportunities, is a major challenge for many educational systems worldwide, for it requires changes to values, system, and practices. In the teaching of English as a foreign language (EFL) in university, teachers are expected to be able to select, transform, or augment Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and Differentiated Instruction (DI) as a framework to guarantee accessibility of all learner types to the learning environment by employing specific educational design guidelines, to fit their leaners', notably for the blinds. Data on what has led EFL teachers to join the reform of the teaching instruction and how they tackle problems during implementation cannot be located. Thus, the aim of this qualitative study is to uncover reasons for EFL teachers to participate in and what they did to facilitate the instruction wide effort to practice inclusive education, as well as challenges encountered. Key findings included implementing university policy as prime reasons for practicing inclusive education, utilizing UDL and DI as the key to successful implementation for instructional teaching, and inadequate resources and teacher training as the main challenges. Recommendations consists of providing disability-specific pre- and in- service training programs for teachers and making arrangements of sufficient educational materials and assessment based on UDL and DI towards EFL instructions.
