A Preprocessing and Analyzing Method of Images in PDF Documents for Mathematical Expression Retrieval

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/3543
Xuedong Tian , Botao Yu , Jing Sun
PDF documents are the important information resources for a mathematical expression retrieval system. As a major component of PDF documents, the image objects must be converted to coded form with the help of character recognition and document analysis technology firstly for content based searching. Therefore, the quality of these images becomes the key factor which decides the correctness in this conversion process. Considering the characteristics of PDF images and mathematical expressions, a preprocessing and analyzing method was proposed which includes the modules of PDF image extraction, graying, binarization, denoising, skew correction and layout parameter detection. The features of mathematical expressions were adequately considered to avoid the information loss in image converting process and the adverse interference both to the analysis and correction process resulted from formulas. The experimental results show that the method is effective in improving the accuracy and efficiency of document image recognition, analysis and retrieval. DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i6.5440

Renewable energies are important components of sustainable development. Indeed, coupled with a rational use of energy, they reduce the use of conventional energy systems based on resources of fossil and fissile origin, and so therefore the pressures environmental and socio-economic use. Renewable energy aims to offer an energy service to our society at an acceptable price. But on the other hand, the cost of this service has an impact on the local economy, the environment and society in general. Compared to conventional solutions, enhancement of renewable energy creates more jobs, strengthens the local economy, reduces the environmental impact and reduces the lust on the stocks of energy and therefore it is a source of peace. In this paper, we are interested in the study of a hybrid renewable energy system: wind – photovoltaic – accumulator. The objective of this paper is to propose a novel approach of system analysis based on the OOPP method (Objective Oriented Project Planning) of a hybrid renewable energy system.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v4i3.5880

https://ijece.iaescore.com/index.php/IJECE/article/view/5596
Anshuman Sharma , Abdul Hafeez Syed , Midhun M , M R Raghavendra
This paper presents the design and implementation of programmable BPSK demodulator and bit synchronizer. The demodulator is based on the Costas loop design whereas the bit synchronizer is based on Gardner timing error detector. The advantage of this design is that it offers programmability using multi-rate processing and does not rely on computation of filter coefficients, NCO angle input for each specific data rate and thus avoids computational complexities. The algorithm and its application were verified on Matlab-Simulink and was implemented on ALTERA platform. A 32 kHz BPSK demodulator–bit synchronizer pair catering for data rates from 1 kbps to 8 kbps was implemented.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v4i3.5561

Design of Fuzzy Optimized Controller for Satellite Attitude Control by Two State actuator to reduce Limit Cycle based on Takagi-Sugeno Method

https://ijece.iaescore.com/index.php/IJECE/article/view/5574
Sobutyeh Rezanezhad
In this paper, an algorithm was presented to control the satellite attitude in orbit in order to reduce the fuel consumption and increase longevity of satellite. Because of proper operation and simplicity, fuzzy controller was used to save fuel and analyze the uncertainty and nonlinearities of satellite control system. The presented control algorithm has a high level of reliability facing unwanted disturbances considering the satellite limitations. The controller was designed based on Takagi-Sugeno satellite dynamic model, a powerful tool for modeling nonlinear systems. Inherent chattering related to on-off controller produces limit cycles with low frequency amplitude. This increases the system error and maximizes the satellite fuel consumption. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm was used to minimize the system error. The satellite simulation results show the high performance of fuzzy on-off controller with the presented algorithm.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v4i3.5831

Two Novel Retinal Blood Vessel Segmentation Algorithms

https://ijece.iaescore.com/index.php/IJECE/article/view/5590
Razieh Akhavan , Karim Faez
Assessment of blood vessels in retinal images is an important factor for many medical disorders. The changes in the retinal vessels due to the pathologies can be easily identified by segmenting the retinal vessels. Segmentation of retinal vessels is done to identify the early diagnosis of the disease like glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, hypertensive retinopathy and arteriosclerosis. In this paper, we propose two automatic blood vessel segmentation methods. The first proposed algorithm starts with the extraction of blood vessel centerline pixels. The final segmentation is obtained using an iterative region growing method that merges the contents of several binary images resulting from vessel width dependent modified morphological filters on normalized retinal images. In the second proposed algorithm the blood vessel is segmented using normalized modified morphological operations and neuro fuzzy classifier. Normalized morphological operations are used to enhance the vessels and neuro fuzzy classifier is used to segment retinal blood vessels. These methods are applied on the publicly available DRIVE database and the experimental results obtained by using green channel images have been presented and their results are compared with recently published methods. The results demonstrate that our algorithms are very effective methods to detect retinal blood vessels.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v4i3.5829

The public transport infrastructure of a city is one of the most important indicators of its economic growth and development. Here we investigate the statistical properties of the public transport network in Shenyang to explore its various properties based on complex network theory. The statistical properties of the public transport system consist of the degree of a node, the average shortest path length, the clustering coefficient of a node, the average clustering coefficient, and the degree distribution. In contrast with the small world evolution model, we find that the public transport system of Shenyang, a network of public transportation routes connected by bus links, is a small-world network characterized by a Poisson degree distribution. Simulation results show that the public transport network exhibits small world behavior with N=148.

A Novel Clustering Routing Protocol in Wireless Sensor Network

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/3503
Wu Rui
The phenomenon of network resource-constrained often appears in wireless sensor network (WSN) because of nodes with energy-limited, so it becomes a research topic to study on high-performance routing protocol in wireless sensor network. In accordance with the characteristic of quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO), a novel clustering routing protocol with QPSO algorithm is proposed based on the low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH), which includes several steps, such as determining the number of cluster-head, preliminary clustering, optimization on temporary cluster by QPSO algorithm, clustering after optimization, and so on. Comparative analysis on simulation experiments show that the proposed routing protocol is superior to that of LEACH, and saves energy consumption of network excellently and balances energy of nodes so as to prolong the life of the network.DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i6.5533

In m-out-of-n system, if m-out-of-n modules agree, system can report consensus; otherwise, the system fails. On the other hand, in predictive hybrid system if there is no agreement, a history record of previous successful result(s) is used to predict the output. In order to analyze the availability of predictive hybrid redundancy system, Markov modeling is utilized. By using Markov model of the system in steady state, the availability is derived and compared with m-out-of-n system. The results of simulation demonstrated that the availability of predictive hybrid system is higher than m-out-of-n system especially for large m.

ARFMS: An AR-based WYSIWYG Filmmaking System

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/3511
Chen Ling , Wenjun Zhang
This paper proposes a novel “What You See Is What You Get” filmmaking system, called as ARFMS. It provides users with a low cost and easy to use system to make movies. Users cannot only real-time visualize the performance with computer-generated objects, but also visual effects films will be finished without post-production. After finished the screenplay, the performance will be shot on-site using an ordinary camera. CG objects will be simply and effectively controlled by natural interaction. Then users can apply the DR-marker just like an actual scene element, because it takes the advantages of marker-based and markerless-based registration approaches. This paper implements ARFMS to achieve pre-visualization and real-time finish the film using augmented reality technology. The user can perform with the CG character and stage property just like real ones. DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i6.4582

Precise measurement of indoor mass concentration of particulate matter is criticially important for the health risk evaluation since modern people spend more than 90% of their life indoors. For the sake of accuracy, long-term monitoring systems should be deployed among which wireless sensor network is a sound solution. However, most of the wireless sensor networks are battery powered and thus energy management scheme should be implemented to prolong the lifetime of the whole network. Meanwhile, sample sites must be selected carefully to avoid the results bias. In this paper, the importance of sample interval as well as sample locations is investigated theoretically and practically. Results show that by adopting efficicent power management scheme, more than 67% of energy can be saved. Finally, methods of sample interval configuration as well as sample sites selection are proposed. DOI : http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i6.5494

Object-Oriented Publish/Subscribe System

https://ijeecs.iaescore.com/index.php/IJEECS/article/view/3535
Biao Dong
Existing methodologies based on the request/response model for system software design, rooted in principles of object-oriented design, lead to tightly-coupled interactions, and lack coordination capacities. The publish/subscribe(P/S) paradigm is particularly suitable for loosely- coupled communication environment. A design of event and subscription models under an object- oriented environment was motivated by the idea of using P/S paradigm for an object-oriented environment. The P/S service is comprised of two subsystem-compiler and executor. In each subsystem, its form, working process, and typical algorithms are analysed from the point of object-oriented and technology of P/S paradigm separately. Experiment was simulated in the following two aspects: user’s model and middle code generation, and shows that using the P/S service improves the usability of P/S systems. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v12i6.5391
