10.11591/ijict.v15i2.pp565-577
Pranitha Kedambady Shiva , Pushparaj D. Shetty
Intrusion detection systems (IDS) are critical for preserving the Windows environment from an ever-changing collection of cyber threats. Current IDS uses deep learning (DL), which are heavy models if used for detection, while others use machine learning (ML) techniques, which require external feature extraction. To resolve this challenge, this paper introduces XGBNN, a new ensemble model that combines the benefits of ML and DL to identify and mitigate attacks against Windows machines effectively. The various ML methods are trained on the publicly available dataset to classify eight types of attacks in a Windows environment. Additionally, deep neural networks (DNNs) are proposed by optimizing the layers and hyperparameters to achieve the best accuracy. Then, the DNN model and XGBoost model are integrated to detect intrusions by utilizing the feature extraction ability of DNN and providing the intermediate features extracted from the last second layer of the DNN to the XGB for classification. The Ensemble model XGBNN optimizes features and offers better decisions. The proposed model achieves an exceptional accuracy of 100%, as demonstrated by the empirical results, and outperforms the benchmark models with an improvement of 0.004%. The purpose of this study is to highlight the effectiveness of hybrid architectures in intrusion detection. These architectures offer a more robust, scalable, and effective method to improve the security of the Windows system against more sophisticated attacks.

Maamar Bougherara , Rafik Amara , Amina Guidoum
Communication within system-on-chip (SoC) architectures has evolved significantly to keep pace with the growing complexity of modern applications. To overcome the limitations of traditional interconnects, network-on-chip (NoC) has emerged as a scalable and efficient communication solution. Although early NoC designs relied heavily on 2D architectures, their physical and performance constraints have led to the rise of 3D NoC architectures, which offer better spatial integration and improved performance. In order to automate the NoC design process, a number of electronic design automation (EDA) tools and optimization algorithms are employed to help designers achieve efficient and high-performance designs. Within this EDA framework, one of the most critical stages is the core placement or application mapping phase, where computational tasks are allocated to the processing elements of the architecture. This step is very hard due to its combinatorial nature, and its optimization is essential since it directly impacts communication cost, energy consumption, and overall system performance. To address this challenge, numerous heuristic and metaheuristic algorithms have been explored for both 2D and 3D NoCs. In this paper, we propose an adaptation of the bat algorithm to solve the mapping problem in both 2D and 3D NoC architectures, with the objective of minimizing communication cost. The proposed approach is evaluated and compared against other optimization methods to assess its effectiveness in enhancing NoC performance within the EDA framework.

Emotions are an inseparable part of human existence. Emotions have a big impact on the success and failure of the human race. Comprehending human emotions could prove beneficial in creating improved systems for education, security, market sales, production, healthcare and other areas. Big data analytics applied to streamlined real time emotion sensor’s data can give new insights to anticipate stress before it arises and help in making significant choices that improve people's quality of life. This work proposes a framework for big data management and analysis of GSR sensor’s data in real-time for predicting emotions in human participants. Supervised learning techniques, ensemble boosted tree, neural network, Naïve Bayes, support vector machine, decision tree, K-nearest neighbor, and quadratic discriminant analysis are applied to the collected data. Two distinct criteria have been utilized for testing on real-time data one is trained on all participant data, resulting in a generalized system, while the other is trained on participant-specific data, resulting in a personalized system. Hence, the personalized system achieves an accuracy of up to 80.64% across all classes and 100% for binary classes as compare to generalized system achieves 78.12% accuracy. It is concluded that for the purpose of predicting emotions, the personalized model performs better than the generalized model.

Despite its significant contributions to health, agriculture, and energy, the public perception of nuclear technology in Indonesia remains cautious and fragmented. Existing communication channels are largely one-way and regulatory, offering limited opportunities for public interaction and collaborative learning. This study investigates how an interactive web-based platform can enhance public engagement and knowledge sharing in nuclear science and technology. To address this challenge, a Nuclear Community Interactive Website (WIKIN) for Indonesia was designed and developed using the Laravel framework, following a structured waterfall methodology. The system integrates role-based access control, modular architecture, and responsive design to support community participation through the sharing of news, discussions, and documentation of service activities. The evaluation was conducted through black-box functional testing of 27 features (all passed) and a system usability scale (SUS) survey involving 51 users, which produced an average score of 74.8 (“Good”), indicating satisfactory usability and acceptance. These results demonstrate that WIKIN provides an effective model for fostering two-way communication, improving transparency, and strengthening public literacy regarding nuclear issues. This study contributes to digital public engagement research by demonstrating how user-centered design principles can be effectively applied to enhance trust, transparency, and community participation in nuclear science communication.

Image encryption is crucial for secure data transmission in fields such as IoT, medical imaging, and biometrics. This paper proposes an enhanced encryption framework that combines nonlinear preprocessing with double random phase encoding (DRPE) using the fractional fourier transform (FrFT). The diffusion process replaces the conventional XOR operation with a nonlinear hyperbolic tangent (tanh) function, improving confusion diffusion complexity and resistance to cryptanalytic attacks. Experimental results show a reduction in peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) from 9.03 dB to 7.25 dB and a mean squared error (MSE) increase to 10×10³, indicating stronger encryption and lower correlation with the original image. The proposed method also enhances robustness against histogram and key sensitivity attacks. Statistical analyses, including entropy and number of pixels change rate (NPCR) metrics, demonstrate that the approach outperforms conventional DRPE methods while maintaining computational efficiency. This hybrid nonlinear and FrFT-based framework provides a practical and scalable solution for secure image transmission in sensitive and real-time applications.

Cascaded generalized predictive control for induction drives under constraints using particle swarm optimization

10.11591/ijra.v15i2.pp445-457
Rachid Amrouche , Noureddine Boumalha , Farid Ykhlef , Djilali Kouchih
This paper presents a cascaded generalized predictive control (CGPC) strategy for induction motor drives under operational constraints, optimized through particle swarm optimization (PSO). In the proposed scheme, the outer loop regulates the motor speed, while the inner loop controls torque and flux, ensuring accurate multi-level regulation. PSO is employed to optimally tune the prediction horizon and weighting factors, enhancing robustness, transient response, and disturbance rejection. Unlike conventional GPC–PSO approaches that neglect explicit constraint handling, and linear matrix inequalities (LMI)-based model predictive controller (MPC) methods that impose high computational costs, the proposed CGPC–PSO achieves both constraint management and real-time efficiency. Moreover, compared with Neural-MPC strategies that require retraining for each system, the proposed method provides generalizable and adaptive control without sacrificing computational performance. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the approach, demonstrating superior trajectory tracking, robustness against parameter variations, and improved dynamic performance compared with RST, LMI, and neural-MPC controllers. These findings position CGPC–PSO as a promising candidate for advanced induction motor drive applications.

This paper presents a machine learning (ML)-enhanced software defined radio (SDR) architecture optimized for adaptive 5G wireless communication. The system incorporates predictive ML algorithms to enable real-time modulation selection, finite impulse response (FIR) filter reconfiguration, and spectrum adaptation based on dynamic channel parameters such as bit error rate (BER), received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). A decision tree classifier and a deep Q-learning agent dynamically determine optimal modulation schemes (BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM, OQAM) and filter tap configurations (4/8/16 taps), ensuring efficient communication under varying network conditions. Implemented on a Xilinx Zynq SoC using Verilog for datapath design and Python for ML control via AXI4-Lite, the architecture achieves a maximum operating frequency of 182.4 MHz, 40.7% logic utilization, and only 122.3 mW power consumption. Compared to existing SDR implementations, the system demonstrates a 17% frequency improvement, 28% power reduction, and 21% area savings. Real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) transmission confirms the system’s adaptability, achieving BER < 10⁻³ at 22 dB SNR and < 10⁻⁵ at 26 dB. These results affirm the viability of the proposed ML-SDR for edge-based biomedical and ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) applications in 5G networks.

Fadzlin Ahmadon , Murni Mahmud , Muna Azuddin
This study explores the intersection of interaction design and sensemaking within digital systems, aiming to identify and categorize key affordances that enhance user sensemaking. Starting with a focused literature review, key design elements such as tagging and annotation are identified, important for effective sensemaking in interaction design. Drawing on Maier's construct of affordances, the behaviours of these design elements are analyzed to derive specific affordances integral to enhancing user experience. The primary objective is to develop a generalized affordance typology that supports sensemaking across various digital systems. This typology organizes the derived affordances into broad themes such as effortless discovery, expressive freedom, collaborative engagement, cognitive support, insight enhancement, and user empowerment. This typology serves as a tool for interaction designers, facilitating the application of these themes in various design scenarios to create more intuitive and effective digital environment for sensemaking.

Chandapiwa Mokgethi , Tshiamo Sigwele , Kabo Clifford Bhende , Aone Maenge , Selvaraj Rajalakshmi
Current literature reviews on machine learning-based approaches for mobile edge computing (MEC) energy optimization often lack in-depth gap analysis and fail to identify trends or offer actionable insights. Most focus narrowly on comparing MEC frameworks without critically evaluating or benchmarking prior research. This review contributes by addressings these gaps via analysis of existing reviews and related studies, with a focus on ML models, research objectives, evaluation metrics, datasets, tools, and gap identification. The review method follows a systematic literature review (SLR) using the PRISMA framework for transparency and reproducibility. Key findings reveal persistent challenges in energy consumption, computational overhead, cost, and poor performance in accuracy, QoS, latency, scalability, and carbon footprint. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) emerges as the most commonly used model (55%), while TensorFlow (35%) is the most adopted tool, valued for its flexibility and robust community support. The AudioSet dataset is frequently used (28%) due to its compatibility. However, methodology limitations include dependency on study quality and exclusion of grey literature, context sensitivity. The review concludes by recommending advanced solutions such as serverless computing, liquid cooling, containerization, software-defined power, quantum computing, and blockchain to drive future MEC energy optimization.

10.11591/ijict.v15i2.pp789-796
Neelakanteshwar Rao Battu , Surender Reddy Salkuti
The integration of distributed generation (DG) into power systems is increasing to meet the requirements of the utility system. Renewable energy sources are given priority due to their clean energy and high consistency advantages. Integration of DG into the system makes the bi-directional flow of current. Directional type overcurrent relays are usually used for protection of lines associated with bidirectional power flows. The installation of DGs, (especially, inverter-based) invites challenges to the existing protection schemes. A new modified characteristic equation-based approach is proposed in this paper to obtain the faster operational time of relays. The relay coordination scheme proposed in this paper is applied to an 8-bus test system integrated with the solar-based photovoltaic integrated distributed generator (PVIDG). The comparative analysis between the conventional and proposed approaches is done.
