10.11591/ijece.v10i4.pp3911-3917
Bhatti Dhaval , Anuradha Deshpande
In this paper short term load forecasting (STLF) is done with using multiple linear regression (MLR). A day ahead load forecasting is obtained in this paper. Regression coefficients were found out with the help of method of least square estimation. Load in electrical power system is dependent on temperature, due point and seasons and also load has correlation to the previous load consumption (Historical data). So the input variables are temperature, due point, load of prior day, hours, and load of prior week. To validate the model or check the accuracy of the model mean absolute percentage error is used and R squared is checked which is shown in result section. Using day ahead forecasted data weekly forecast is also obtained.

Application of mutant particle swarm optimization for MPPT in photovoltaic system

10.11591/ijeecs.v19.i2.pp600-607
Thom Thi Hoang , Thi Huong Le
The P –V characteristic of a photovoltaic system (PVs) is non-linear and de-pends entirely on the extreme environmental condition, thus a large amount PV energy is lost in the environment. To enhance the operating efficiency of the PVs, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller is normally equipped in the system. This paper proposes a new mutant particle swarm optimization (MPSO) algorithm for tracking the maximum power point (MPP) in the PVs. The MPSO-based MPPT algorithm not only surmounts the steady-state oscillation (SSO) around the MPP, but also tracks accurately the optimum power under different varying environmental conditions. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, MATLAB simulations are implemented in three challenging scenarios to the PV system, including changing irradiation, load variation and partial shading condition (PSC). Furthermore, the obtained results are compared to some of the con-ventional MPPT algorithms, such as incremental conductance (INC) and clas-sical particle swarm optimization (PSO) in order to show the superiority of the proposed approach in improving the efficiency of PVs.

This study presents a probabilistic multi-objective optimization approach to obtain the optimal locations and sizes of static var compensator (SVC) and thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) in a power transmission network with large level of wind generation. In this study, the uncertainties of the wind power generation and correlated load demand are considered. The uncertainties are modeled in this work using the points estimation method (PEM). The optimization problem is solved using the Multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm to find the best position and rating of the flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices. The objective of the problem is to maximize the system loadability while minimizing the power losses and FACTS devices installation cost. Additionally, a technique based on fuzzy decision-making approach is employed to extract one of the Pareto optimal solutions as the best compromise one. The proposed approach is applied on the modified IEEE 30-bus system. The numerical results evince the effectiveness of the proposed approach and shows the economic benefits that can be achieved when considering the FACTS controller.

10.11591/ijeecs.v19.i2.pp1028-1035
Abdulkareem Merhej Radhi
Due to the unreliability of wired communications and the risks of controlling the process of transmitting data besides the complications that affecting data protection and the high costs of systems infrastructure, led to use wireless communications instead of wires media, but these networks are vulnerable towards illegal attacks. The side effects of these attacks are modifying data or penetrate the security system and discover its weaknesses, which leads to great material losses. These risks and difficulties led to the reluctance of wires communications and propose intelligent techniques and robust encryption algorithms for preventing data transmitted over wireless networks to keep it safe from cyber security attacks. So, there is a persistent need for providing intelligent techniques and robust algorithms to preserve conveyed information using wireless network. This paper introduces scenario for proposing intelligent technique to increase data reliability and provides a new way to improve high level of protection besides reduces infrastructure cost. The proposed system relies on two models, where the first model based on producing a knowledge base of risk rules while the aim of the second module is a risk assessment outcomes and encryption process according to attacks type. In this system, reducing risks levels based on renewable rules whereas a novel security system established on non-periodic keys with unsystematic operations using fuzzy system. We concluded that the proposed system has the ability to protect the transmitted data, increases its reliability and reduce the potential risks. MATLAB Toolkit 2014 then Weka open source package was used in encryption and data mining for the proposed system.

Mahdieh Khorashadizade , Morteza Jouyban , Mohammadreza Asghari Oskoei
In neural networks, simultaneous determination of the optimum structure and weights is a challenge. This paper proposes a combination of teaching-learning based optimization (TLBO) algorithm and a constructive algorithm (CA) to cope with the challenge. In literature, TLBO is used to choose proper weights, while CA is adopted to construct different structures in order to select the proper one. In this study, the basic TLBO algorithm along with an improved version of this algorithm for network weights selection are utilized. Meanwhile, as a constructive algorithm, a novel modification to multiple operations, using statistical tests (MOST), is applied and tested to choose the proper structure. The proposed combinatorial algorithms are applied to ten classification problems and two-time-series prediction problems, as the benchmark. The results are evaluated based on training and testing error, network complexity and mean-square error. The experimental results illustrate that the proposed hybrid method of the modified MOST constructive algorithm and the improved TLBO (MCO-ITLBO) algorithm outperform the others; moreover, they have been proven by Wilcoxon statistical tests as well. The proposed method demonstrates less average error with less complexity in the network structure.

The purpose of this study is to investigate computer vision and machine learning methods for classification of orthodontic images in order to provide orthodontists with a solution for multi-class classification of patients’ images to evaluate the evolution of their treatment. Of which, we proposed three algorithms based on extracted features, such as facial features and skin colour using YCbCrcolour space, assigned to nodes of a decision tree to classify orthodontic images: an algorithm for intra-oral images, an algorithm for mould images and an algorithm for extra-oral images. Then, we compared our method by implementing the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) algorithm to extract textural features from images. After that, we applied the principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm to optimize the redundant parameters in order to classify LBP features with six classifiers; Quadratic Support Vector Machine (SVM), Cubic SVM, Radial Basis Function SVM, Cosine K-Nearest Neighbours (KNN), Euclidian KNN, and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). The presented algorithms have been evaluated on a dataset of images of 98 different patients, and experimental results demonstrate the good performances of our proposed method with a high accuracy compared with machine learning algorithms. Where LDA classifier achieves an accuracy of 84.5%.

Solar assisted cooling rule in indoor air quality

10.11591/ijece.v10i4.pp3948-3956
Ali M. Baniyounes , Yazeed Y. Ghadi
Indoor air quality as always is the centre of attention for researchers, architect developers and public health officials. As every-one know. The human exposure to a variety of indoor pollutants and the high cost of energy are the motivation for these kinds of studies. Fungus and mould growth has always been a problem in subtropical climate areas due to the high temperature and high humidity. Generally in institutional buildings, most of the internal heat load is generated by human body and thermal comfort is achieved with   extensive usage of recycled air and air conditioning. The main considerations in any air conditioning system economisers are based on the usage of recycled air and air ventilation. The current practice in an institutional building cooling system under subtropical climate is to curb the mould issue by overcooling large recirculation airflow to remove the moisture content from the air, which is considered as an expensive practice. The use of a solar desiccant cooling system to reduce moisture from the air and to improve indoor air quality is found to be economical, environmental friendly and readily achievable in the tropics. This technology is the future alternative to the conventional vapour compression cooling system to maintain human thermal comfort conditions and enhance indoor air quality. Solar desiccant cooling systems are also environmentally friendly and energy efficient. This paper presents review on a solar desiccant cooling system and its effect on indoor air quality. It first introduces the issue of air moisture, mould growth and indoor air quality and then the development and application of thermally activated desiccant cooling technologies.

Muayad Sadik Croock , Saja Dhyaa Khuder , Zahraa Abbas Hassan
Recently, the wireless sensor network (WSN) has been considered in different application, particularly in emergency systems. Therefore, it is important to keep these networks in high reliability using software engineering techniques in the field of fault tolerance. This paper proposed a fault node detection method in WSN using the self-checking technique according to the rules of software engineering. Then, the detected faulted node is covered employing the reading of nearest neighbor nodes (sensors). In addition, the proposed method sends a message for maintenance to solve the fault. The proposed method can reduce the time between the detection and recovery of a fault to prevent the confusion of adopting wrong readings, in which the detection is making with mistake. Moreover, it guarantees the reliability of the WSN, in terms of operation and data transmission. The proposed method has been tested over different scenarios and the obtained results show the superior efficiency in terms of recovery, reliability, and continuous data transmission.

Maximum voltage sag compensation using direct converter by modulating the carrier signal

10.11591/ijece.v10i4.pp3936-3941
S. Abdul Rahman , Gebrie Teshome
The aim of this paper is to achieve maximum voltage sag compensation of 52% using direct converter based DVR. The DVR topology has only two switches. The DVR is designed to compensate the voltage sag in a phase by taking power from the same phase. A direct converter is connected between the series transformer and the line in which sag compensation is to be achieved. If the actual amplitude of the error signal is used and the amplitude of carrier signal is kept at 1 unit, it is possible to achieve only 22% of sag compensation. If the amplitude of the carrier signal is modulated according to the percentage of existing sag, 52% of the sag is compensated through ordinary PWM technique with the THD less than 5%. Matlab Simulation results are presented for the validating the analysis.

Javier Orlando Pinzón-Arenas , Robinson Jiménez-Moreno
This paper presents the development of a system of comparison between words spoken and written by means of deep learning techniques. There are used 10 words acquired by means of an audio function and, these same words, are written by hand and acquired by a webcam, in such a way as to verify if the two data match and show whether or not it is the required word. For this, 2 different CNN architectures were used for each function, where for voice recognition, a suitable CNN was used to identify complete words by means of their features obtained with mel frequency cepstral coefficients, while for handwriting, a faster R-CNN was used, so that it both locates and identifies the captured word. To implement the system, an easy-to-use graphical interface was developed, which unites the two neural networks for its operation. With this, tests were performed in real-time, obtaining a general accuracy of 95.24%, allowing showing the good performance of the implemented system, adding the response speed factor, being less than 200 ms in making the comparison.
