The article is devoted to the study of the relationship between sustainable development and the introduction of innovative technologies, and the formation of smart cities. The Azerbaijan Republic is a land-poor country and has exhausted most of its natural resources. Therefore, the use of renewable energy sources and scientific research in this direction are important and topical issues for the country's scientists. Wind demand: in 10 months (from January to October) showed 3.000 GWh-4.000 GWh in Absheron (2020-2024 years). Since bioenergy can be produced in any weather, it is more reliable than solar and wind energy in Azerbaijan's regions. Seasonal variations in the availability of agricultural residues can lead to uneven energy production and create difficulties in ensuring a constant supply. The study is innovative given the importance of non-competition with food production, as well as the unique environmental, economic, and technological implications of each biofuel production method.

This research investigates the utilization of a unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) to address power quality issues in the electrical grid and mitigate harmonics introduced by non-linear loads. The UPQC system is augmented by a combination of photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage system (BESS). Typically, the PV system supplies active power to the load. However, in cases where the PV system cannot provide sufficient power, the BESS is activated to ensure a continuous power supply, particularly during prolonged voltage interruptions. To enhance system reliability and reduce dependency on environmental conditions, a hybrid PV-BESS system is proposed. The inclusion of the BESS improves long-term voltage support capabilities, simplifies the DC-link voltage regulation algorithm, and facilitates the production of clean energy. For efficient phase synchronization operation of the UPQC controller under unbalanced and distorted grid voltage conditions, a self-tuning filter (STF) integrated with the unit vector generator (UVG) technique is employed.

A technical review of implemented pulsed electric field generators with different topologies

10.11591/ijape.v15.i1.pp412-420
Krishnaveni Subramani , S. Jeroline Mary
Pulsed electric field technology (PEF) seeks application in a variety of industries, such as food processing, wastewater treatment, and biomedical engineering, as it provides a non-thermal substitute for conventional thermal pasteurization techniques. The PEF generators are an increasingly important component of this technology since it necessitates high voltage in the range of 2 kV/cm to 100 kV/cm in food processing to inactivate the microorganisms. Different PEF profiles are required based on different foods and the type of microorganisms present in it. The size of existing PEF producers and space limitations are the major challenges in this technology. Hence, there is a growing need to develop laboratory-scale PEF generators to study and analyze the PEF electrical profile for the specified applications. While the single MOSFET PEF generator is appropriate for high frequency applications, the series linked MOSFET PEF generator, one of the PEFs produced in our lab, is found economical. The voltage boosting concept is used to develop 1.62 kV pulses at 52 kHz from 120 V DC input. This paper majorly studies the circuit topologies, switching strategies, and output performances of PEF generators implemented in the laboratory.

Emotion recognition and classification using Inception EfficientNet based on electroencephalography signals

10.11591/ijra.v15i1.pp190-199
Jananee J , Emerson Solomon F , Sundar Raj M
Emotions are intricate psychological phenomena arising from the interaction of internal cognitive states and external environmental inputs. The manual extraction of electroencephalography (EEG) signals results in less optimal performance of learning models. To overcome this, a novel EEG-based emotion recognition and classification (EEG-EMRE) model has been proposed for the detection and classification of emotions. Initially, the input EEG-Signals are pre-processed using quantum signal processing (QSP) to enhance the quality by removing the noise from the signal. The enhanced signals are fed into an improved Inception EfficientNet for extracting the relevant features. The Penta types of emotions, such as happy, sad, anger, scared, and anxiety, are classified using a bidirectional-k nearest neighbors (KNN) classification network. The performance of the proposed EEG-EMRE approach is evaluated using the F1-Score, recall, specificity, accuracy, and precision. The proposed Inception EfficientNet for feature extraction network improves the overall accuracy by 0.41%, 1.52%, 0.63%, 1.55% better than ResNet, AlexNet, GoogleNet, and DenseNet. The proposed EEG-EMRE method achieves an overall accuracy by 0.68%, 1.77%, and 0.52% better than the linear formulation of differential entropy (LF-DfE), extreme learning machine wavelet auto encoder (ELM-W-AE), and attention-based convolutional transformer neural network (ACTNN), respectively.

Experimental validation of a trajectory tracking controller for a two-wheeled mobile robot

10.11591/ijra.v15i1.pp33-42
Boualem Kazed , Abderrezak Guessoum
One of the most important and challenging problems of any kind of autonomous mobile robot is the ability to accurately control its onboard actuators, enabling it to fulfill a specified task. In the case of a two-wheeled mobile robot, this can only be achieved through a pair of adequate steering control signals. The main goal of this paper is to design a nonlinear multivariable controller allowing a self-made mobile robot prototype to track a prescribed trajectory. The basic principle of this control approach uses the Lyapunov theory as a primary tool to derive two steering control laws, making a three-state error vector converge to zero. Tuning the proposed controller parameters is carried out using an equivalent dynamic simulated model. This controller is then applied to generate the resulting command signals to the actual robot. This is achieved through a real-time high-speed serial communication between a stationary personal computer (PC), on which a MATLAB/Simulink version of this controller is performing, and an onboard Microchip 16 bits dsPIC33FJ64MC802 microcontroller running a firmware that takes care of all the data exchange with the connected PC and a set of two proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers ensuring that the rotational speeds of the robot wheels are kept very close to those required by the main controller, running on this PC. The performance of the proposed controller is evaluated using two different shaped trajectories. These tests show that the robot is able to gradually follow the required path with minimal lateral error. The robustness of this controller is demonstrated through its capability to reject external disturbances triggered during these experimental tests.

Autonomous reconstruction of strip-shredded documents via self-supervised deep learning and global optimization

10.11591/ijra.v15i1.pp107-121
Yi-Chang Wu , Pei-Shan Chiang , Yao-Cheng Liu
Autonomous reconstruction of mechanically shredded documents is a labor-intensive challenge in forensic and archival workflows, particularly for scripts with complex structures such as Simplified Chinese. While traditional manual reassembly is tedious, existing digital tools typically rely on extensive human intervention. This paper presents an automated reassembly framework that integrates a lightweight convolutional feature extractor with global combinatorial optimization. By adapting the established SqueezeNet v1.1 backbone, we employ a task-specific self-supervised learning strategy trained on synthetically shredded samples, enabling the adapted model to capture local stroke continuity and edge-geometry cues without manual annotation. The framework infers pairwise relationships from calibrated edge-region inputs, organizing compatibility scores into an asymmetric traveling salesman problem (ATSP) formulation. The optimal fragment sequence is solved deterministically using the Concorde TSP solver, yielding a globally consistent reconstruction. Experimental results on physically shredded documents demonstrate reconstruction accuracies of 86.5% for Simplified Chinese and 94.8% for Western scripts. These results indicate that the proposed pipeline effectively generalizes from synthetic training data to real-world scenarios, providing a practical, high-throughput foundation for automated document recovery under computational constraints typical of robotic or embedded systems.

This paper presents the modeling and simulation of an active quarter-car suspension system (AQCSS) designed to enhance operational performance and ride comfort across various road conditions. First, a dynamic quarter-car model was developed, incorporating all the components of AQCSS and road-induced stimuli, based on the Euler–Lagrange method. Subsequently, a synergetic controller is designed by selecting a manifold that meets the system’s technical requirements. The proposed controller ensures a balance between ride comfort and road-holding performance by leveraging this manifold design. This control framework enables flexible adjustment of the damping force in real time according to the system states and external excitations. The stability of the closed-loop system is rigorously established through Lyapunov analysis. Numerical simulations are carried out in MATLAB to assess the proposed control law by benchmarking it against a passive suspension configuration and a sliding mode control approach, thereby demonstrating its effectiveness.

Mathuranthagam, Tamil Nadu, India is the site of this research initiative that employs state-of-the-art hybrid machine learning (ML) architectures to forecast crop suitability in relation to environmental and soil characteristics. The model takes advantage of the strengths of linear support vector machine (SVM) classifier, bidirectional long short-term memory (BiLSTM), and convolutional LSTM (ConvLSTM) networks, and the data to capture complicated temporal and spatial correlations. To prepare the dataset for model training, it is normalized using min-max scaling and then feature selected using a Jaya optimization technique. The dataset contains variables such as humidity, rainfall, temperature, and pH. Both the BiLSTM and the ConvLSTM improve the model's comprehension of context from both previous and subsequent time steps. The ConvLSTM also records spatial dependencies. A powerful decision-making tool for differentiating across crop varieties is the linear SVM classifier. Comparing the hybrid model's performance to that of traditional LSTM approaches using measures such as recall, accuracy, precision, and F1-score shows that it performs much better. Using this approach can see how deep learning (DL) can supplement more conventional ML methods and see how important local environmental data is for agricultural policy and planning.

The selection menu in some racing games usually uses a random system for vehicle selection. However, this random feature generally randomizes the selection of the index without considering factors that support the player's abilities. Therefore, this study aims to develop a racing game that can suggest vehicles that have been adjusted to the player's performance. Vehicle recommendations are made using the multi-objective optimization on the basis of ratio analysis (MOORA) method as its method. The MOORA calculation ranks vehicles based on criteria such as mileage, fuel efficiency, speed, agility, and others collected in previous games. The results of this study show the effectiveness of using the MOORA method in recommending vehicles that match the player's skills, thereby improving the overall player experience. In addition, the usability test produced a system usability scale (SUS) score of 82.4, so it is included in the very good category.

Classification and regression tree model for diabetes prediction

10.11591/ijict.v15i1.pp207-216
Farah Najidah Noorizan , Nur Anida Jumadi , Li Mun Ng
Diabetes mellitus is characterized by excessive blood glucose that occurs when the pancreas malfunctions while producing insulin. High blood glucose levels can cause chronic damage to organs, particularly the eyes and kidneys. Diabetes prediction models traditionally use a variety of machine learning (ML) algorithms by combining data from the glucose levels, patient health parameters, and other biomarkers. Prior research on diabetes prediction using various algorithms, such as support vector machine (SVM) and decision tree (DT) models, demonstrates an accuracy rate of approximately 70%, which is relatively modest. Therefore, in this study, a classification and regression tree (CART) multiclassifier model has been proposed to improve the accuracy of diabetes prediction, which is based on three classes: non-diabetic, pre-diabetic, and diabetic. The study involved data preprocessing steps, hyperparameter tuning, and evaluation of performance metrics. The model achieved 97% accuracy while utilizing the value of 5 for the number of leaves per node, the value of 10 for the maximum number of splits, and deviance as the split criterion, which also resulted in a precision of 98%, recall of 97%, and F1-score of 98%, showing that the proposed multiclassifier model can accurately predict diabetes. In conclusion, the proposed CART model with the best hyperparameter setting can enable the highest accuracy in predicting diabetes classes.

Reputation-enhanced two-way hybrid algorithm for detecting attacks in WSN

10.11591/ijict.v15i1.pp428-437
Divya Bharathi Selvaraj , Veni Sundaram
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are susceptible to a variety of attacks, such as data tampering attacks, blackhole attacks, and grayhole attacks, that can affect the reliability of communication. We proposed a reputationenhanced two-way hybrid algorithm (RCHA) that uses cryptographic hash functions and reputation-based trust management to detect and de-escalate attacks accurately. The RCHA algorithm implements two hash functions RACE integrity primitives’ evaluation message digest (RIPEMD) and secure hash algorithm (SHA-3), to initiate the integrity check for the entire packet sent across the network. Every node in the WSN tracks a reputation score for each neighbor the node is connected to, and this score is dynamically updated based on the behavior of each neighbor. If a neighboring node’s reputation drops below a threshold, the node is sent a maliciousness designation. At that time, the node will broadcast an alert message to its neighboring nodes and begin to reroute its data through one of its trusted neighbors to ensure the reliability of the communication. The simulation results reported that the RCHA algorithm improved the accuracy of the attack detection rate and the number of packets delivered compared to traditional attack detection methods. The RCHA algorithm was able to maintain low computational and energy overhead for the WSN, making it an attractive option for a resource-constrained application in a WSN. Given the trends towards more collaborative networks, the reputation mechanism in the RCHA algorithm improves the overall reliability and capabilities of the WSN, regardless of adversaries.
