As technology has advanced, the internet of medical things (IoMT) has become incredibly useful. It is used to transmit a wide variety of medical images. Sensitive patient data may be altered during transmission or subject to illegal access. To overcome all of these challenges and preserve the integrity of medical images while transmission over IoMT, a blind region-based data concealing approach called medical image watermarking (MIW) is suggested. The region of interest (ROI) and region of non-interest (RONI) are the two sections that make up the medical image. The aim of the suggested MIW technique is to prevent transmission-related manipulation of medical image ROI. To provide high imperceptibility and resilience, confined integrity verification and recovery bits (CIVRB) bits are embedded in the RONI using hybrid integer wavelet transform–singular value decomposition (IWT-SVD). According to the experimental results, the suggested system is highly imperceptible (average peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR)=56dB), robust (average NC=0.99), and exhibits integrity verification accuracy of over 98% against a variety of image processing attacks. In terms of several watermarking properties, the proposed technique performs over state-of-the-art schemes. This method offers a dependable framework for protecting medical images in real-time IoMT applications and is suitable for smart healthcare environments.

10.11591/ijece.v15i6.pp5327-5335
Ganesh R. Padalkar , Madhuri B. Khambete
Semantic segmentation is crucial step in autonomous driving, medical imaging, and scene understanding. Traditional approaches leveraging manually extracted pixel properties and probabilistic models, have achieved reasonable performance but suffer from limited generalization and the need for expert-driven feature selection. The rise of deep learning architectures has significantly improved segmentation accuracy by enabling automatic feature extraction and capturing intricate object details. However, these methods still face challenges, including the need for large datasets, extensive hyperparameter tuning, and careful loss function selection. This paper proposes a novel boundary-sensitive loss function, which combines region loss and boundary loss, to enhance both region consistency and edge delineation in segmentation tasks. Implemented within a modified SegNet framework, the approach proposed in the paper is evaluated with the semantic boundary dataset (SBD) dataset using standard segmentation metrics. Experimental results indicate improved segmentation accuracy, substantiating to proposed method.

The encryption of medical images protects the privacy of patient information transmitted over networks and communications. In this paper, a lightweight encryption method for medical images is proposed, combining a quadtree-based segmentation and a modified ITUBee algorithm for encryption. A digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) image is divided into variable-size blocks using the Quadtree technique, and the key is generated through a two-dimensional Henon map; the first dimension is used in the confusion process (bit permutation) of the pixel values, and the second sequence is used to generate the key schedule through the application round function. Different numbers of rounds are applied to the ITUBee method based on the size of the segments in the Quadtree, making the algorithm adaptive by increasing the round number when the block size is reduced. The method is used as a lightweight encryption method for encrypting all blocks, utilizing different round numbers for each block size to balance the degree of complexity with the total time consumption of the DICOM image. The result reinforces the proposed method, which produced a high mean squared error (MSE) between the DICOM image and the Encrypted One, and a lower peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). The proposed generated numbers were also tested using national institute of standards and technology (NIST) to evaluate the randomness.

10.11591/ijpeds.v16.i4.pp2400-2410
K. S. R. Vara Prasad , V. Usha Reddy
This paper proposes a machine learning-based energy management system for electric vehicles with BLDC motor integration. Efficient energy management is essential for improving the performance, range, and reliability of electric vehicles (EVs), particularly those powered by brushless DC (BLDC) motors. Traditional energy management systems (EMS), such as rule-based and fuzzy logic controllers, often lack the adaptability required for dynamic driving conditions and optimal energy distribution. This paper presents a machine learning (ML)-based EMS framework tailored for EVs equipped with BLDC motors, aiming to enhance system responsiveness and energy efficiency. ML algorithms, including decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVMs), and XGBoost, are trained on diverse datasets that reflect varying load demands, driving cycles, and battery state-of-charge (SOC) levels. The proposed EMS is modeled and validated in Python programming to simulate realistic EV operating scenarios. Simulation results indicate that the ML-based EMS outperforms conventional methods by achieving up to 15% energy savings, reducing battery stress, and maintaining smoother SOC transitions. These findings highlight the potential of ML-driven strategies for creating adaptive, intelligent EMS solutions in next-generation BLDC motor-based EVs.

This research introduces an adaptive improved particle swarm optimization (AIPSO) approach for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach designed to enhance energy harvesting from photovoltaic (PV) systems under dynamic irradiance conditions. The proposed AIPSO algorithm addresses the challenges associated with traditional MPPT methods, particularly in scenarios characterized by fluctuating solar irradiance, such as step changes and partial shading. By incorporating a robust reinitialization strategy along with updated velocity and position equations, the algorithm demonstrates superior performance in terms of convergence accuracy, tracking speed, and tracking efficiency. This modification enables the algorithm to effectively escape local maxima and explore a wider search space, leading to improved convergence and optimal power point tracking. Furthermore, the adaptive nature of the PSO enhances the algorithm’s ability to respond to real-time changes in environmental conditions, making it particularly suitable for large- scale PV systems subjected to varying atmospheric factors. Here, “adaptive” denotes coefficient scheduling (C3) and a re-initialization trigger that responds to irradiance regime changes; “intelligent” denotes robust regime shift detection and safe duty ratio clamping. Across uniform, step change, and partial shading conditions, the proposed AIPSO achieves fast reconvergence and high tracking efficiency with negligible steady state oscillations, as summarized in the results. Building on this contribution, future research will focus on evaluating its scalability across different PV architectures and large-scale grid integration with real hardware setup.

Frequency regulation and active power loss management are crucial aspects of power system operations. Battery energy storage systems (BESS) have emerged as an innovative solution to enhance grid performance, especially in addressing frequency fluctuations and reducing power losses. This study explores the role of BESS in optimizing frequency regulation and managing active power losses in the power system through several BESS integration scenarios. In this study, a BESS with a capacity of 8.437 MW was used and analyzed using symmetric steady-state simulations in DigSILENT PowerFactory software. The simulations aim to test the effectiveness of BESS in frequency regulation and minimizing active power losses in the Sulbagsel system. The analysis results show that implementing BESS can respond effectively to both over-frequency and under-frequency conditions in the Sulbagsel system. In the discharge scenario, BESS can reduce the system's average frequency by 0.02 Hz and decrease active power losses by up to 1.09 MW. Conversely, in the charge scenario, active power losses increase by 1.22 MW when the BESS is installed on Bus Tonasa. This study provides valuable insights for developing BESS-based frequency regulation strategies that contribute to the stability and efficiency of the power system.

To foster the widespread adoption of solar power, especially that produced by photovoltaic (PV) systems, we must move beyond the mere utilization of renewable energy sources. Prioritizing cost-effective approaches through innovative grid integration is essential. This strategic transformation significantly contributes to the global expansion of electrical energy production. One pioneering approach involves the implementation of inverters operating at high frequencies to efficiently filter and eliminate undesirable current harmonics, thus enhancing system performance. This innovative technique relies on the generation of rapid complementary digital pulse width modulation (PWM) signals, complete with built-in dead time, to manage a half-bridge inverter with a single phase. The paper recommends employing the IR2110 driver, an often-used component for MOSFET switch management, to execute this strategy. The entire system is controlled by high-frequency PWM signals, meticulously programmed for precision, generated by a microcontroller driver board. With its adaptability to various renewable energy conversion devices, this methodology extends its utility beyond solar energy. Practical tests have confirmed the efficacy of this strategy. Future research in this field should scrutinize the effect of PWM on system stability and harmonic distortion, explore advanced modulation methods, align PWM approaches with upcoming power electronics technologies, and work towards improving system efficiency.
