Granularity analysis of classification and estimation for complex datasets with MOA

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp409-416
Chanintorn Jittawiriyanukoon
Dispersed and unstructured datasets are substantial parameters to realize an exact amount of the required space. Depending upon the size and the data distribution, especially, if the classes are significantly associating, the level of granularity to agree a precise classification of the datasets exceeds. The data complexity is one of the major attributes to govern the proper value of the granularity, as it has a direct impact on the performance. Dataset classification exhibits the vital step in complex data analytics and designs to ensure that dataset is prompt to be efficiently scrutinized. Data collections are always causing missing, noisy and out-of-the-range values. Data analytics which has not been wisely classified for problems as such can induce unreliable outcomes. Hence, classifications for complex data sources help comfort the accuracy of gathered datasets by machine learning algorithms. Dataset complexity and pre-processing time reflect the effectiveness of individual algorithm. Once the complexity of datasets is characterized then comparatively simpler datasets can further investigate with parallelism approach. Speedup performance is measured by the execution of MOA simulation. Our proposed classification approach outperforms and improves granularity level of complex datasets.

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp585-592
Andreas Nugroho Sihananto , M. Shochibul Burhan , Wayan Firdaus Mahmudy
Mixing broiler chicken and layer hens feed using various feed ingredients is a difficult task. The feed must fulfill the minimum nutrient requirement and must break the constraint. Some classic approach like Pearson’s Square has been already introduced to solve this problem. However, the approaches cannot guarantee to fulfill nutrient requirements and desirable price. The two metaheuristic algorithms Evolution Strategies (ES) and Firefly Algorithms (FA) are being proposed in this paper to know how well they performed this problems. Result show that ES is perform much better compared to classic Pearson’s Square, but ES itself is outperform by FA on both cases.

The effect of training set size in authorship attribution: application on short arabic texts

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp652-659
Mohammed Al-Sarem , Abdel-Hamid Emara
Authorship attribution (AA) is a subfield of linguistics analysis, aiming to identify the original author among a set of candidate authors. Several research papers were published and several methods and models were developed for many languages. However, the number of related works for Arabic is limited. Moreover, investigating the impact of short words length and training set size is not well addressed. To the best of our knowledge, no published works or researches, in this direction or even in other languages, are available. Therefore, we propose to investigate this effect, taking into account different stylomatric combination. The Mahalanobis distance (MD), Linear Regression (LR), and Multilayer Perceptron (MP) are selected as AA classifiers. During the experiment, the training dataset size is increased and the accuracy of the classifiers is recorded. The results are quite interesting and show different classifiers behaviours. Combining word-based stylomatric features with n-grams provides the best accuracy reached in average 93%.

A noble approach to develop dynamically scalable namenode in hadoop distributed file system using secondary storage

10.11591/ijeecs.v13.i2.pp729-736

For scalable data storage, Hadoop is widely used nowadays. It provides a distributed file system that stores data on the compute nodes. Basically, it represents a master/slave architecture that consists of a NameNode and copious Data Nodes. Data Nodes contain application data and metadata of application data resides in the Main Memory of NameNode. In cached approach, they fragment the metadata depending on the last access time and move the least frequently used data to secondary memory. If the requested data is not found in main memory then the secondary data will be loaded again on the RAM. So when the secondary data reloads to the primary memory then the NameNode main memory limitation arises again. The focus of this research is to reduce the namespace problem of main memory and to make the system dynamically scalable. A new Metadata Fragmentation Algorithm is proposed that separates the metadata list of NameNode dynamically. The NameNode creates Secondary Memory File in perspective of the threshold value and allocates secondary memory location based on the requirement. According to the proposed algorithm the maximum third, out of fourth of main memory is used at the secondary file caching time. The free space aids in faster operation by Dynamically Scalable NameNode approach. This proposed algorithm shows that the space utilization is increased to 17% and time utilization is increased to 0.0005% with the comparison of the existing fragmentation algorithm.

Raad Farhood Chisab
The work with feature of self-power supply by solar cell or by the battery or together at the same time. Therefore, the power dissipation is the big problem in wireless sensor network (WSN) especially when it is works for long time. The efficient method for reducing the power consumption within working is needed. The process of reducing waste power is one of the top priorities of scientists and designers of wireless sensor networks. The aim of this paper is to find the dominant method to reduce the power consumption in the wireless sensor network in order to stay works for long time and maintain the links with other nodes without loss of connection and transfer the information correctly. In this paper, a modified method was invented to minimize power utilization per data bit in a connection. This new method depends on the optimization process for reducing the power consumption as low as possible. All the tests of simulation process were done in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. Numerical results demonstrated that the new method reduce the power when different values of noise are present with different types of modulation. Also the distance that the WSN will reach the information to it will be increase with presence of various noise amounts with different types of modulation. As a result, the power was decreased and the signal was reach more distance.

Oil fields produce associated petroleum and wet gas, which can be mixed with commercial natural gas as fuel. Associated petroleum and wet gas are a low cost, low quality fuel, whereas commercial natural gas is the opposite. Two parameters are affected by this mixture: the fuel cost and the power – steam output of gas turbine – heat recovery steam generators. This research develops a Unit Commitment and Optimal Power Flow model based on Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming to optimize combined heat and power cost by considering the optimal mixture between associated petroleum - wet gas and commercial natural gas. A thermodynamic model is used to represent the performance of gas turbine – heat recovery steam generators when subjected to different fuel mixtures. The results show that the proposed model can optimize cost by determining the most efficient power – steam dispatch and optimal fuel mixture. Furthermore, the optimization model can analyse the trade-off between power system losses, steam demand and associated - wet gas utilization.

It is very important in remote cardiac diagnosis to extract pure ECG signal from the contaminated recordings of the signal. When recording the ECG signal in the laboratory, the signal is affected by numerous artifacts. Varies artifacts generally degrades the signal quality are PLI, EM, MA and EM. In addition to these, the channel noise also added when transmitting signal from remote location to diagnosis center for analyzing the signal. There are several approaches are used to reduce the noise present in the ECG signal. From the literature it is proven that compared to non adaptive filters, adaptive filters play vital role to trace the random changes in the corrupted signals. In this paper, we proposed efficient Variable step size leaky least mean fourth algorithm and its sign versions for reducing the complexity. These algorithms shows that it gives low steady state error due to least mean fourth and fast convergence rate that is it tracks the input signal quickly because of its variable step size is high at initial iterations of signal compared to the LMS algorithm. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated using SNR, frequency spectrum, MSE, misadjustment and convergence characteristics.

Neha Narayan Kulkarni , Shitalkumar A. Jain
Cloud computing provides many services to access them dynamically over the internet as per the user's demand. The data is growing in tremendous amount and it should be managed correctly where storage service proves efficient. The Data stored online can be hacked by the third party so to secure this data verifying integrity is essential. Because of the human error or natural disaster, the data may get deleted from the cloud servers. Therefore, there is a requirement of improving the existing algorithm to recover data efficiently. Many algorithms are proposed, but they lack in efficiency, computational cost, and reliability. The proposed system in this paper is having the feature of verifying data integrity using Identity Based Remote Data Integrity Checking and recovery using the XOR operation. When the data is unavailable to the user, the proposed system provides flexibility for the user to regain data from the remote server.

An important issue in wireless communication systems, which is related to the antenna gain degradation in case of changing the main direction of the antenna radiation pattern, this variation is not approval in many communications systems. In order to improve antenna radiation performances, Electromagnetic band gap (EBG) - antenna with radiation pattern control capability is presented. Mushroom-like EBG structure for suppressing surface waves has been combined, with the switching diode to produce the radiation pattern control with improving antenna characteristics of gain, directivity and efficiency. EBG of several cells are surrounded the patch antenna and placed symmetrically for the two opposite sides, generating different radiation patterns control ability in both the elevation (E) (-20° < φ < 20°) and azimuth (Z) planes (−18° < θ < 18°). At the ground plane of antenna the diodes have been switched ON and OFF states, the EBG sector properties in stop band (connecting vias) and pass band (disconnecting vias) are altered. Using CST Microwave Studio (CST MWS) the results show the flexibility in radiation pattern control for the Z and E planes using only four diodes. Antenna directivity of 10 dBi, gain 9.86 dB and efficiency 96.5% at the operating frequency of 6 GHz, more results for all direction has been stated in Table1. Significantly, unlike a conventional beam steering, this method does not suffering from gain degradation and the main lobe gain is approximately constant for all steerig angles.

Suroso Suroso , Daru Tri Nugroho , Abdullah Nur Azis , Toshihiko Noguchi
A simplified circuit topology of the five-level pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter for DC-AC power conversion with no-isolated DC voltage sources and reduced switching device number is presented in this paper. The inverter circuit is based on the three-level H-bridge inverter configuration. The developed five-level inverter needs only five controlled power switches and four isolated gate drive circuits. Furthermore, the proposed topology does not require bidirectional power semiconductor controlled switches, hence a conventional discrete power MOSFETs or IGBTs can be used to build the inverter circuits. To obtain a better quality output voltage waveform, the level-phase-shifted carriers based sinusoidal pulse width modulation control was applied to produce a five-level PWM voltage waveform. The proposed inverter circuit was examined by using computer simulation with Power PSIM software. The basic principle operation of the inverter circuit was verified experimentally in laboratory using two non-isolated DC voltage sources as the inputs of the inverter’s prototype circuit. Some analysis of inverter’s output waveforms are provided and discussed.

10.11591/ijece.v9i1.pp635-645
Ch. Neelima , S. S.V.N. Sarma
Formal concept analysis is the process of data analysis mechanism with emergent attractiveness across various fields such as data mining, robotics, medical, big data and so on. FCA is helpful to generate the new learning ontology based techniques. In medical field, some growing kids are facing the problem of representing their knowledge from their gathered prior data which is in the form of unordered and insufficient clustered data which is not supporting them to take the right decision on right time for solving the uncertainty based questionnaires. In the approach of decision theory, many mathematical replicas such as probability-allocation, crisp set, and fuzzy based set theory were designed to deals with knowledge representation based difficulties along with their characteristic. This paper is proposing new ideological blended approach of FCA with FLC and described with major objectives: primarily the FCA analyzes the data based on relationships between the set of objects of prior-attributes and the set of attributes based prior-data, which the data is framed with data-units implicated composition which are formal statements of idea of human thinking with conversion of significant intelligible explanation. Suitable rules are generated to explore the relationship among the attributes and used the formal concept analysis from these suitable rules to explore better knowledge and most important factors affecting the decision making. Secondly how the FLC derive the fuzzification, rule-construction and defuzzification methods implicated for representing the accurate knowledge for uncertainty based questionnaires. Here the FCA is projected to expand the FCA based conception with help of the objective based item set notions considered as the target which is implicated with the expanded cardinalities along with its weights which is associated through the fuzzy based inference decision rules. This approach is more helpful for medical experts for knowing the range of patient’s memory deficiency also for people whose are facing knowledge explorer deficiency.

Water quality is one of the major factors that greatly affects growth and mortality rate of aquatic livestock especially in high density aquaculture system.  Conventional method requires fish farmer to perform manual water quality test and record on multiple fish tanks in regular basis. This process is meticulous, and may affect aquatic livestock that needs close and immediate attention. In this paper, water quality monitoring system for the high density aquaculture environment is proposed. The monitoring system is composed of multiple sensor nodes and sensor/server node hybrid, which used to collect and manage the water quality parameter data of multiple tanks. The sensor nodes collect and store the water quality parameters in local database and transmit them to the server node through a wireless communication. The server node is used for data analysis, processing and allow public access via web browser through various Wi-Fi enabled smart devices. This paper presents a proof-of concept of clustered wireless monitoring system focused on the use of multiple sensor nodes to determine the water parameter in real time. This system is cost effective, quickly deployable, and user-friendly with wireless capabilities.

Ramkumar Govindaraj , E. Logashanmugam
In recent times face tracking and face recognition have turned out to be increasingly dynamic research field in image processing. This work proposed the framework DEtecting Contiguous Outliers in the LOw-rank Representation for face tracking, in this algorithm the background is assessed by a low-rank network and foreground articles can be distinguished as anomalies. This is suitable for non-rigid foreground motion and moving camera. The face of a foreground person is caught from the frame and then it is contrasted and the speculated pictures stored in the dataset. Here we used Viola-Jones algorithm for face recognition. This approach outperforms the traditional algorithms on multimodal video methodologies and it works adequately on extensive variety of security and surveillance purposes. Results on the continuous demonstrate that the proposed calculation can correctly obtain facial features points. The algorithm is relegate on the continuous camera input and under ongoing ecological conditions.
