Optimization of Arithmetical Operators for the Enhanced Wallace Stage

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i3.pp591-594
K. Gugan , S. V. Saravanan
In the field of Digital signal processing (DSP), the reduction of some logical elements counts is one of the main considerations. To minimize the area, computational delay, and power, the digital form FIR filter is to be implemented. The optimization of the ATP (Area, Time and Power) is achieved by using the efficient multiplication and accumulation unit (MAC). In this work, the direct form FIR filter with the efficient MAC unit is presented. At the initial stage, the half adders and full adders are to be modified by the reduction of the logical gates. The modified half and full adder are implemented in the Wallace tree multiplier for performing the efficient multiplication process. Carry save adder is divided into the two stages to reduce the computational delay of arithmetical operators. The proposed MAC design is implemented in the direct form FIR filter by using the HDL language.

Tushar Anthwal , Akanksha Chandola , M P Thapliyal
The health of water bodies across the globe is of high concern as the pollution is accelerating rigorously. With the interventions of simple technology, some significant changes could be bought up. Lakes are dying because of high Trophic Index Status which shows the eutrophication level of water bodies. Taking this into account, feed forward back propagation neural network model is used to estimate the Trophic Status Index (TSI) of lakes which could compute the value of TSI with the given parameters; pH, temperature, dissolved oxygen, Secchi disk transparency, chlorophyll and total phosphate. Two learning algorithms; Levenberg Marquardt (LM) and Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno (BFGS) Quasi Newton were used to train the network, which belongs to different classes. The results were analyzed using mean square error function and further checked for the deviation from actual data. Among both the training algorithm; LM demonstrated better performance with 0.0007 average mean square error for best validation performance and BFGS Quasi Newton shows the average mean square error of 1.07.

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i3.pp696-702
Byamakesh Nayak , Sangeeta Sahu , Tanmoy Roy Choudhury
This paper explains an adaptive method for estimation of unknown parameters of transfer function model of any system for finding the parameters. The transfer function of the model with unknown model parameters is considered as the adaptive model whose values are adapted with the experimental data. The minimization of error between the experimental data and the output of the adaptive model have been realised by choosing objective function based on different error criterions. Nelder-Mead optimisation Method is used for adaption algorithm. To prove the method robustness and for students learning, the simple system of separately excited dc motor is considered in this paper. The experimental data of speed response and corresponding current response are taken and transfer function parameters of  dc motors are adapted based on Nelder-Mead optimisation to match with the experimental data. The effectiveness of estimated parameters with different objective functions are compared and validated with machine specification parameters.

Artificial Neural Network for Healthy Chicken Meat Identification

10.11591/ijai.v7.i1.pp63-70
Fajar Yumono , Imam Much Ibnu Subroto , Sri Arttini Dwi Prasetyowati
Indonesia is the country with the largest number of Muslims in the world. Every Muslim is taught to consume thoyyiban halal meat or healthy chicken because it is slaughtered in the right way and stored in a good way too. But the reality in the market of many chicken meat on the market can not meet that criteria. Identification of healthy chicken meat can be done with laboratory experiments, but that is not simple and takes time. This experiment offers a cheaper, faster approach, with very high accuracy. The experimental approach is based on color and texture analysis on 5 types of meat quality based on healthy value. Color analysis was performed using artificail neural network (ANN) while texture analysis used Canny edge detection. Experimental results show that the color histogram approach with ANN is better than the texture approach, ie 94% versus 66%. It can be concluded that the freshness of a chicken does not have much effect on the texture of the meat but it has an effect on the color change in the meat.

Nigeria official languages are English, Yorùbá, Igbo and Hausa. The focus of the study reported in this paper is to develop learning tool that can assist learners to learn the Yorùbá language using its alphabets. The study is critical to Yorùbá language, because of its endangerment. There is need to introduce different learning tools that can mitigate its extinction. A Yorùbá word perfect system was developed to assist people in learning the Yorùbá language. English and Yorùbá words formation are experimented using computational morphological approach (word formation). The theoretical framework considered Finite state automata (FSA) to realise different ways of combining the consonants and vowels to form word. Two to five letter words were considered. The system was designed and implemented using UML tools and python programming language.The system will teach the users on how the words are formed, and the number of syllables in each word. The user  need not to know how to tone mark word before he/she can use the system. Any word typed will be analysed according to its number of syllables. This approach produces representatives of all parts of speech (POS) of the two languages. It produces corpora for the two languages

In accordance with e-government initiatives, many ministries in Malaysia have engaged content to public using social media for better two-way communications. However, creating an online presence is not necessarily easy as digital content consumers are often bombarded with information and those that fail to capture information will be rendered uninteresting and irrelevant. This is imperative as for most part, users are in control of where they allocate attention and what they share. Using virality as a context, it is opined that information content that are well-designed will trigger specific information and propel the sharing of that information over the Internet. A study employing FB post categorization and sharing motivations survey was carried out in the context of Ministry of Health Malaysia Facebook page. The findings show that users are inclined towards Infographics with various sharing motivations. The results can be used by Malaysian ministries on how best to design and disseminate information for the benefit of the netizens on social media sites.

Search Engine-inspired Ranking Algorithm for Trading Networks

10.11591/ijeecs.v9.i3.pp812-818
Andri Mirzal
Ranking algorithms based on link structure of the network are well-known methods in web search engines to improve the quality of the searches. The most famous ones are PageRank and HITS. PageRank uses probability of random surfers to visit a page as the score of that page, and HITS instead of produces one score, proposes using two scores, authority and hub scores, where the authority scores describe the degree of popularity of pages and hub scores describe the quality of hyperlinks on pages. In this paper, we show the differences between WWW network and trading network, and use these differences to create a ranking algorithm for trading networks. We test our proposed method with international trading data from United Nations. The similarity measures between vectors of proposed algorithm and vector of standard measure give promising results.
