Kanagasabai Lenin
In this work Predestination of Particles Wavering Search (PPS) algorithm has been applied to solve optimal reactive power problem. PPS algorithm has been modeled based on the motion of the particles in the exploration space. Normally the movement of the particle is based on gradient and swarming motion.  Particles are permitted to progress in steady velocity in gradient-based progress, but when the outcome is poor when compared to previous upshot, immediately particle rapidity will be upturned with semi of the magnitude and it will help to reach local optimal solution and it is expressed as wavering movement. In standard IEEE 14, 30, 57,118,300 bus systems Proposed Predestination of Particles Wavering Search (PPS) algorithm is evaluated and simulation results show the PPS reduced the power loss efficiently.

10.11591/ijece.v10i4.pp4381-4389
Bashir Olaniyi Sadiq , A. T. Salawudeen
Closed-loop routing in flying ad hoc networks (FANET) arises as a result of the quick changes of communication links and topology. As such, causing link breakage during information dissemination. This paper proposed a destination path flow model to improve the communication link in FANET. The models utilized Smell Agent Optimization and Particle Swarm Optimization algorithms in managing link establishment between communicating nodes. The modeled scenario depicts the practical application of FANET in media and sports coverage where only one vendor is given the license for live coverage and must relay to other vendors. Three different scenarios using both optimization Algorithms were presented. From the result obtained, the SAO optimizes the bandwidth costs much better than PSO with a percentage improvement of 10.46%, 4.04% and 3.66% with respect to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd scenarios respectively. In the case of communication delay between the FANET nodes, the PSO has a much better communication delay over SAO with percentage improvement of 40.89%, 50.26% and 68.85% in the first, second and third scenarios respectively.

Sensitive data may be stored in different forms. Not only legal owners but also malicious people are interesting of getting sensitive data. Exposing valuable data to others leads to severe Consequences. Customers, organizations, and /or companies lose their money and reputation due to data breaches. There are many reasons for data leakages. Internal threats such as human mistakes and external threats such as DDoS attacks are two main reasons for data loss. In general, data may be categorized based into three kinds: data in use, data at rest, and data in motion. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) are good tools to identify important data. DLP can do analysis for data content and send feedback to administrators to make decision such as filtering, deleting, or encryption. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools are not a final solution for data breaches, but they consider good security tools to eliminate malicious activities and protect sensitive information. There are many kinds of DLP techniques, and approximation matching is one of them. Mrsh-v2 is one type of approximation matching. It is implemented and evaluated by using TS dataset and confusion matrix. Finally, Mrsh-v2 has high score of true positive and sensitivity, and it has low score of false negative.

Ammar Wisam Altaher , Abdullah Hasan Hussein
Monitoring the general public gathered in large numbers is one of the most challenging tasks faced by the law and order enforcement team. There is swiftly demand to that have inbuilt sensors which can detect the concealed weapon, from a standoff distance the system can locate the weapon with very high accuracy. Objects that are obscure and invisible from human vision can be seen vividly from enhanced artificial vision systems. Image Fusion is a computer vision technique that fuses images from multiple sensors to give accurate information. Image fusion using visual and infrared images has been employed for a safe, non-invasive standoff threat detection system. The fused imagery is further processed for specific identification of weapons. The unique approach to discover concealed weapon based on DWT in conjunction with Meta heuristic algorithm Harmony Search Algorithm and SVM classification is presented. It firstly uses the traditional discrete wavelet transform along with the hybrid Hoteling transform to obtain a fused imagery. Then a heuristic search algorithm is applied to search the best optimal harmony to generate the new principal components of the registered input images which is later classified using the K means support vector machines to build better classifiers for concealed weapon detection. Experimental results demonstrate the hybrid approach which shows the superior performance.

Performance evaluation of wireless sensor networks using LEACH protocol

10.11591/ijeecs.v19.i1.pp395-402
Anas Ali Hussien , Shaymaa Waleed Al-Shammari , Mehdi J. Marie
Recent days witnessed considerable developments in the field of wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The applications of these networks can be seen in the simple consumer electronic devices as well as in the advanced space technology. The communication protocols are of prior importance and interest; the low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) protocol is used to enhance the performance of power consumption for the WSNs nodes. The efficiency of a wireless network can be affected by different factors, such as the size of the WSN and the initial energy of the sensor node. This can inspire the researchers to develop the optimum structure of the WSNs to get its desired functionality. In this paper, the performance of the low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) protocol is investigated using MATLAB to study the effect of the initial energy of the sensor node and the WSN size on the number of the running nodes. It is found that increasing the initial energy of a sensor node increases the life time of the node and hence the number of the running nodes. It has been also approved that the WSN size has an inverse proportion with the number of running sensor nodes during the use of LEACH protocol.

Speaker ethnic identification for continuous speech in malay language using pitch and MFCC

10.11591/ijeecs.v19.i1.pp207-214
Rafizah Mohd Hanifa , Khalid Isa , Shamsul Mohamad
Voice recognition has evolved exponentially over the years. The purpose of voice recognition or sometimes called speaker identification, is to identify the person who is speaking. This can be done by extracting features of speech that differ between individuals due to physiology (shape and size of the mouth and throat) and also behavioral patterns (pitch, accent and style of speaking). This paper explains an approach of voice recognition to identify the ethnicity of Malaysian people. Pitch and 13 Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCCs) are extracted from 52 recorded continuous speech in Malay for use as features to train the classifiers using Tree, Naïve Bayes, Nearest Neighbors and Support Vector Machine (SVM) and another 10 recorded speeches are used for testing. The results reveal that the use of a combination of pitch and 13 coefficients for features extraction and training the data using SVM provide better accuracy (57.7%) than the use of only 13 coefficients (53.8%).
