Rizki Ananta Dwiyanto , Giva Andriana Mutiara , Marlindia Ike Sari
This study studies the design and implementation of a REST API and its performance analysis for an internet of things (IoT)-based vehicles monitoring system. This system incorporates brake pad sensors, a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) for assessing tire pressure and temperature, light detection and ranging (LIDAR) for measuring tire thickness, and radio frequency identification (RFID) for tire identification. Data is gathered using an ESP32 microcontroller and transmitted in real-time to the server via a REST API over a wireless network. The JSON Web Token (JWT) authentication mechanism is employed to ensure data security. Testing indicates that this system has an average response time of 4–11 ms, with optimal performance recorded at 3.93 ms for the RFID sensor and peak performance at 9.19 ms for the LIDAR sensor. Load testing with 100 concurrent users demonstrates that the system maintains stability with a 100% data delivery success rate. Authentication testing demonstrates that the API is accessible solely with a valid token, hence preventing unauthorized access. This study's results demonstrate that integrating REST API with IoT monitoring systems facilitates real-time vehicle monitoring, enhances maintenance efficiency, and offers viable solutions for future predictive maintenance systems.

A dual-model machine learning approach to medicare fraud detection: combining unsupervised anomaly detection with supervised learning

10.11591/csit.v6i3.p245-252
Jesu Marcus Immanuvel Arockiasamy , Gowrishankar Bhoopathi
Medicare fraud, costing $54.35 billion in improper payments in 2024, undermines U.S. healthcare by draining resources meant for vulnerable populations. Traditional detection methods struggle with reactive designs, high false positives, and reliance on scarce labeled data, exacerbated by a 0.017% fraud prevalence. This paper proposes a dual-model machine learning framework to tackle these challenges. Unsupervised anomaly detection uses cluster-based local outlier factor (CBLOF) and empirical cumulative outlier detection (ECOD) to identify novel fraud patterns across 37 million records. These findings are validated by the list of excluded individuals/entities (LEIE). Supervised classification, with C4.5 decision trees and logistic regression, refines these anomalies using an 80:20 balanced dataset, reducing false positives by 63%. Key innovations include hybrid sampling to address class imbalance, LEIE integration for labeled validation, and parallelized processing of 2.1 million claims hourly. Achieving an area under the curve (AUC), a measure of model accuracy, of 88.3%, this approach outperforms single-model systems by 24%, blending exploratory detection with actionable precision. This scalable, interpretable framework potentially advances fraud detection, safeguarding public funds and Medicare’s integrity with a practical, adaptable solution for evolving threats.

In wind energy conversion systems, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) performance is crucial, as it is directly related to wind speed variability and the characteristics of the equipment used. Maximum power point tracking controllers are essential for optimizing the efficiency of wind power generation. This paper presents the development of three distinct approaches to maximum power point tracking: the classical perturb and observe (P&O) method, and two other techniques based on artificial intelligence, namely long short-term memory (LSTM) networks and deep neural networks (DNNs). Rather than focusing solely on the development of an intelligent neural network-based maximum power point tracking model, our work emphasizes the design of a deep neural network controller with an optimized architecture and a reduced number of layers and neurons per layer, thereby simplifying its implementation in embedded process control units while maintaining high maximum power point tracking performance. The results obtained show that our optimized deep neural network model identifies the point of maximum power more effectively than other techniques, demonstrating remarkable performance in terms of response time, accuracy, and the quality of the generated power.

Electricity demand is continually rising due to the advancement of new technology, the switch to greener energy, and the popularity of electric vehicles over conventional ones. The proliferation of businesses in the generation and distribution sectors has increased competition in the electricity market. Forecasting electricity prices enables consumers to control their monthly electricity bills and consumer-owned distributed generation by knowing the forecasted hourly price. For demand management, generation scheduling, and bidding price quotations, electricity price forecasting is crucial for buyers, generation businesses, and bidders alike. Electricity price data is highly nonlinear and affected by numerous factors because of which EPF models are more complex, highly volatile and slow in convergence. A range of neural network models, training algorithms, and hybrid systems comprising two or more models have been suggested for precise and efficient electricity price forecasting by researchers over the decade. This study involves the development of a hybrid neural network model with two intelligent algorithms sine cosine algorithm (SCA) and extreme learning machine (ELM) to predict electricity price for a particular duration. The newly developed network model is trained and tested with real-time Indian electricity price data from the year 2022. The selected annual price data set is divided into three different sets to explore seasonal variations and all the sets are given as the input to the model for training and testing to obtain the effective price forecasting.

10.11591/ijece.v15i5.pp4916-4932
Chakir Mokhtari , Mohammed Debakla , Boudjelal Meftah
In brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis, image clustering is regarded as one of the most crucial tasks. It is frequently employed to estimate and visualize brain anatomical structures, identify pathological regions, and assist in guiding surgical procedures. Fuzzy c-means algorithm (FCM) is widely used in the MRI image segmentation process. However, it has been several weaknesses such as noise sensitivity, stuck in local optimum and issues with parameters initialization. To address these FCM problems, this paper presents a novel fuzzy optimization method that enhances brain MRI image segmentation by integrating the artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm with FCM clustering techniques. The proposed method seeks to optimize multiple FCM parameters simultaneously, including the objective function, number of clusters, and cluster center values. The method was evaluated on both simulated and clinical brain MR images, with an emphasis on segmenting white matter, grey matter, and cerebrospinal fluid regions. Experimental results demonstrate significant improvements in segmentation accuracy, achieving a Jaccard similarity (JS) of nearly 1, a partition coefficient index (PCI) of 0.92, and a Davies-Bouldin index (DBI) of 0.41, outperforming other stats of the arts methods.

The rapid growth of industrialization and internet of things (IoT) driven advancements in Industry 5.0 necessitates efficient and user-friendly engineering solutions. Gas leakage incidents in coal mines, chemical enterprises, and households pose significant risks to ecosystems and human safety, emphasizing the need for automated and rapid gas-type detection. Traditional detection methods rely on single-source data and focus on isolated spatial or temporal features, limiting accuracy. This paper proposes a multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) fusion technique combining pre-trained convolutional neural networks (CNNs), such as VGG16, with a deep neural network (DNN) model. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm optimizes CNN hyperparameters, outperforming traditional trial-and-error methods. The system addresses challenges posed by gases being odorless, colorless, and tasteless, which limit conventional human detection methods. By leveraging sensor fusion, the late fusion technique integrates distinct network architectures for unified gas identification. Experimental results demonstrate 95% accuracy using DNN with gas sensor data, 96% with optimized VGG16 using thermal imaging, and 99.5% through multimodal late fusion. This IoT-enhanced solution outperforms single-sensor approaches, offering a robust and reliable gas leakage detection system suitable for industrial and smart city applications.

For cluster sparse system identification, it is known that the cluster sparse improved proportionate affine projection algorithm (CS-IPAPA) outperforms the standard IPAPA. However, since CS-IPAPA does not retain past proportionate factors, its performance can be further improved. In this paper, a modification to CS-IPAPA is proposed by utilizing the past instant proportionate elements based on its projection order. Steady-state performance of the proposed memory cluster sparse improved proportionate affine projection algorithm (MCS-IPAPA) is studied by deriving the condition for mean stability. Different simulation setups show that the proposed algorithm outperforms different versions of IPAPA in terms of convergence rate, normalized misalignment (NM) and tracking, for different types of inputs like colored noise, white noise, and speech signal. By incorporating past proportionate factors, the proposed MCS-IPAPA significantly reduces computational complexity for higher projection orders.

Dang Van Binh , Pham Quang Vu , Pham Manh-Hai
Photovoltaic panels generate electricity from solar energy based on the photovoltaic effect. The conversion efficiency of photovoltaic panels depends on many factors such as solar radiation, wind speed, dust, orientation, tilt angle, and operating temperature. When the operating temperature increases by 1 C, the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic panels decreases by 0.4% - 0.5%. Heat sink is a device used to cool electrical and electronic equipment, including photovoltaic panels. This paper presents calculating the cooling capability of hybrid heat sink made from two materials in steady state using heat transfer theory. Heat sink base is constructed from aluminum and copper layers, with copper layer thickness is 1 and 2 mm. Under different conditions of radiation intensity, wind speed, and tilt angle of photovoltaic panel, results show that heat sink added copper layers of 1 and 2 mm, the operating temperature decreases by about 0.6 K and 1.2 K compared to the aluminum base. Accordingly, the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic panel increased by 0.1% and 0.2%.

Deep learning techniques created a significant increase in intelligent systems, especially in the medical field. Among mental problems, autism is a dangerous neurodevelopmental disorder and it needs to be diagnosed early because of the malleability of child brain development. In our study, we focused on autism detection by using the Vietnamese facial child image and studied the role of international data and Vietnamese data when applying deep learning approach to diagnose autism. To do that, we proposed different strategies based on our hypothesis about factors of the transfer learning and training set types. To conduct the experiment, we prepared a Vietnamese facial child image set from several kindergartens in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and we applied different deep architectures such as ResNet, DenseNet, and AlexNet in the autism classification experiment with both Vietnamese and international facial child images. We analyzed important factors from the experiment results with area under the curve (AUC), accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, including applying transfer learning and the appearance of Vietnamese data in the training set. Besides, we also discussed the difference of international and Vietnamese data domains. The exposure of data distribution differences in the proposed strategies also highlights the importance of collecting facial data of Vietnamese children.

Enhancing diabetes prediction through probability-based correction: a methodological approach

10.11591/ijece.v15i5.pp4933-4941
Aitouhanni Imane , Berqia Amine
Predictive healthcare analytics demands accurate predictions from interpretable models for early diagnosis and intervention on diabetes prognosis, which remains a well-established challenge. This study presents a new probability-based correction method to enhance the performance of a model in diabetes prediction. Initial model comparisons are performed using the PyCaret framework to identify the baseline model. Logistic regression was selected due to its simplicity, interpretability, and its higher accuracy, which outperformed other models. To further facilitate future research in this field, this study was conducted using a noisy dataset without any changes or preprocessing steps other than those available in the dataset from the producer. This intentional decision meant that the new probability-based method could be evaluated in isolation without any additional modifications being applied. The proposed correction method adjusts predictions into borderline probability intervals to obtain more accurate classifications. This approach increased the model accuracy by 6% from 75% to 81%, thus proving successful in resolving the misclassification problem with higher risk. This approach outperforms state-of-the-art methods and demonstrates its generalizability in enhancing the certainty of downstream clinical decisions.
