Because of increasing requirements of the present consumers and industrial units utilizing sensitive loads, there is need of good power quality in order to retain the power quality standards. Nowadays the study of the voltage flicker is becoming essential part of power quality studies. The flicker is typically the effect of a rapidly changing load which is large with respect to the short circuit ability of an electrical supply system. The inferior effects of voltage flicker include malfunctioning of power electronic equipment. Also it causes annoying effects to human. Hence detection of the flicker source is an essential step in the power quality assessment process. This paper delivers a review about methods used to identify flicker producing loads in accordance with IEC 61000-4-15. Once the report related to the disturbance place is known, an investigation and corrective action can be accordingly carried out. Also a method based upon Discrete Wavelet Transform and Artificial Neural Network is proposed to detect initial instance of occurrence of flicker.

N. Rajalakshmi , K. Narayanan , P. Amudhavalli
Preliminary diagnosing of MRI images from the hospital cannot be relied on because of the chances of occurrence of artifacts resulting in degraded quality of image, while others may be confused with pathology. Obtained MRI image usually contains limited artifacts. It becomes complex one for doctors in analyzing them. By increasing the contrast of an image, it will be easy to analyze. In order to find the tumor part efficiently MRI brain image should be enhanced properly. The image enhancement methods mainly improve the visual appearance of MRI images. The goal of denoising is to remove the noise, which may corrupt an image during its acquisition or transmission, while retaining its quality. In this paper effectiveness of seven denoising algorithms viz. median filter, wiener filter, wavelet filter, wavelet based wiener, NLM, wavelet based NLM, proposed wavelet based weighted median filter(WMF) using MRI images in the presence of additive white Gaussian noise is compared. The experimental results are analyzed in terms of various image quality metrics.

Design Flexural Piezoelectric Acoustic Transducers Array based d33 Mode Polarization

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i1.pp59-65
K.A. Ahmad , A. Abd Manaf , Z. Hussain Hussain , Z. Janin
Piezoelectric Acoustic Transducer (PAT) is a transducers used in many application such as medical diagnostic, medical ultrasonic imaging and underwater acoustic applications. Latest research, PAT were investigated in marine application and underwater acoustic imaging. Conventional PAT is design based on sensing element, Piezoelectric Material, matching layer and backing layer. But the conventional method still has problem with issues of narrow bandwidth, directivity and low sensitivity. This problem is occurred when the transducer need to increase the image resolution. The size of single element will become smaller to meet the requirement of high resolution. PZT-5H have high piezoelectric constant (d31) and low dielectric loss. It is chosen as sensing element in this design of PAT because it will increase the sensitivity of transducers. The PAT is design based on d33 mode polarization to improve the receiving sensitivity. The fabrication process are included wet etching on Printed Circuit Board (PCB), spin coated Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and baked transducer on hot plate. PAT is characterized using Pulse-Echo method. Pulse-Echo method will determine the sensitivity, directivity and operating bandwidth of acoustic transducers in underwater applications. Open circuit receiving voltage (OCRV) is voltage response to determine the sensitivity of acoustic transducer. The commercial projector and hydrophone will calibrate to obtain the reliability of result. In cross talk test, at some particular frequency, Pin 2 and Pin 3 have low sensitivity value. It is because Pin 2 and Pin 3 received low acoustic wave pressure. The PAT array based d33 mode polarization shows it has more receiving sensitive compared to commercial acoustic transducers. The design transducer has sensitivity at -56 dB re 1V/µPa at resonance frequency, 100kHz and fractional bandwidth at 30%.

Automatic extraction of brachial artery and measuring associated indices such as flow-mediated dilatation and Intima-media thickness are important for early detection of cardiovascular disease and other vascular endothelial malfunctions. In this paper, we propose the basic but important component of such decision-assisting medical software development – noise tolerant fully automatic segmentation of brachial artery from ultrasound images. Pixel clustering with Fuzzy C-Means algorithm in the quantization process is the key component of that segmentation with various image processing algorithms involved. This algorithm could be an alternative choice of segmentation process that can replace speckle noise-suffering edge detection procedures in this application domain.

Anomaly Detection in Log Records

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i1.pp343-347
Poonam Ghuli
Complex software systems are continuously generating application and server logs for the events which had occurred in the past. These logs generated and can be utilized for anomaly and intrusion detection. These log files can be used for anomaly or outlier detection. Certain types of abnormalities or exceptions such as spikes in HTTP requests, number of exceptions raised in logs, etc. All these events are logged into the log files for further analysis. These types of events are generally used for predicting the anomalies in future. The developed prototype assumes that the user inputs log records in a standard apache log format. At first the user uploads the log file for outlier detection. Next, a prototype is developed to get the number of HTTP requests for outlier detection. Then anomalies in number of HTTP requests are detected using three techniques namely InterQuartileRange method, Moving averages and Median Absolute deviation. Once the outliers are detected, these outliers are removed from the current dataset. This output is given as input to the Multilayer Perceptron model to predict the number of HTTP requests at the next timestamp

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i1.pp1-9
Gitanjali Saha , Kabir Chakraborty , Priyanath Das
 The objective of this paper is to predict the secure or the insecure state of the power system network using a hybrid technique which is a combination of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and voltage stability indexes. Voltage collapse or an uncontrollable drop in voltage occurs in a system when there is a change in the condition of the system or a system is overloaded. A Transference Index (TI) which acts as a voltage stability indicator has been formulated from the equivalent two-bus network of a multi-bus power system network, which has been tested on a standard IEEE 30-bus system and the result is validated with a standard Fast Voltage Stability Index (FVSI). FACTS devices in the critical bus have been considered for the improvement of the voltage stability of the system. An ANN based supervised learning algorithm has been conferred in this paper alongside Contingency Analysis (CA) for the prediction of voltage security in an  IEEE 30 - bus power system network.

DipaliParag Adhyapak , Sridharan Bhavani , Aparna Pradeep Laturkar
Wireless Multimedia Sensor Network (WMSN) is embedded with large number of Audio, Video and scalar sensor nodes which can able to retrieve the multimedia information from the environment. WMSN has several challenges such as life time of the network, Memory requirement, Coverage, Bandwidth and QoS metrics. Hence selection of routing algorithm is crucial in WMSN. Again interdependencies of the protocol layer cannot be neglected to improve the network performance. Clustering in WMSN is challenging task in order to increase network lifetime and to improve the communication. Hence Fuzzy clustered Ant based cross layer protocol (FCAXL) is proposed. In this paper performance analysis of ant based cross layer optimization protocol with fuzzy clustering based on number of nodes and packet size is done. Simulation results shows that Fuzzy clustered ant based cross layer optimization protocol performs best as compared to AntSenseNet routing protocol, Cross layer routing protocol and Ant based cross layer routing protocol in terms of QoS parameters such as Throughput, Packet delivery ratio and delay. Hence the life time of the network increases.

Low Power WAN (LPWAN) is a wireless broad area network technology. It is interconnects using only low bandwidth, less power consumption at long range. This technology is operating in unauthorized spectrum which designed for wireless data communication. To have an insight of such long-range technology, this paper evaluates the performance of LoRa radio links under shadowing effect and realistic smart city utilities clutter grid distribution. Such environment is synonymous to residential, industrial and modern urban centers. The focus is to include the effect of shadowing on the radio links while attempting to study the optimum sink node numbers and their locations for maximum sensor node connectivity. Results indicate that the usual unrealistic random node distribution does not reflect actual real-life scenario where many of these sensing nodes follow the built infrastructure around the city of smart buildings. The system is evaluated in terms of connectivity and packet loss ratio.

10.11591/ijeecs.v10.i1.pp271-279
Aparna Pradeep Laturkar , Sridharan Bhavani , DeepaliParag Adhyapak
Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is emergingtechnology and has wide range of applications, such as environment monitoring, industrial automation and numerous military applications. Hence, WSN is popular among researchers. WSN has several constraints such as restricted sensing range, communication range and limited battery capacity. These limitations bring issues such as coverage, connectivity, network lifetime and scheduling & data aggregation. There are mainly three strategies for solving coverage problems namely; force, grid and computational geometry based. PSO is a multidimensional optimization method inspired from the social behavior of birds called flocking. Basic version of PSO has the drawback of sometimes getting trapped in local optima as particles learn from each other and past solutions. This issue is solved by discrete version of PSO known as Modified Discrete Binary PSO (MDBPSO) as it uses probabilistic approach. This paper discusses performance analysis of random; grid based MDBPSO (Modified Discrete Binary Particle Swarm Optimization), Force Based VFCPSO and Combination of Grid & Force Based sensor deployment algorithms based on interval and packet size. From the results of Combination of Grid & Force Based sensor deployment algorithm, it can be concluded that its performance is best for all parameters as compared to rest of the three methods when interval and packet size is varied.
