In dense areas in the Philippines, there are recorded cases of power theft or known to be illegally tapping power lines from another household which results to complaints because of increased electricity bills. To address the power theft problems, this work uses internet of things system for household electric monitoring and control. A transmitter and receiver set up is designed to monitor the energy consumption at both ends. When there is discrepancy with the meter reading, an alert system sends notification that there is an illegal wiretapping. The load is monitored through electric meters and the powers measured are compared. These data are being sent wirelessly through a GSM module. The meter readings for both the transmitter and receiver can be viewed in a mobile phone through a web app developed. A minimum of 3W difference between the transmitter and the receiver will mean a discrepancy and notifies illegal wiretapping. Illegal connections are cutoff when an incident of tapping occurs. Based on the results of the test, the household electricity monitoring system through internet of things (IoT) is found to be 100% reliable in detecting and cutting off illegal connections. Additionally, the system is able to compute the monthly power consumption.

This article presents the design of a modular pure sine wave microinverter with a high-efficiency maximum power point tracking (MPPT) regulator for photovoltaic (PV) systems. The design starts with a DC/DC buck-boost chopper regulator, simulated using the perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm. Next, a high-frequency DC/AC conversion stage is implemented using a toroidal transformer to achieve various voltage levels and isolated power sources. Finally, a 27-level multilevel inverter is designed to produce a pure sine wave with minimal total harmonic distortion (THD). Simulation results indicate that the microinverter achieves a total efficiency of 90% and produces a pure wave output with 3% harmonic distortion. Compared to commercial solutions, the proposed design enhances efficiency while integrating key components. Additionally, the system maintains a cost-effectiveness and directly proportional to its energy efficiency, making it a viable and cost-effective solution for PV energy conversion.

Verification of a qualification, achievement, quality, or aspect of a person’s background is one of the biggest problems nowadays as we have seen many platforms where students can get fake credentials. Every organization must select professional and academically qualified employees to give quality service. As a result, corporations rely on academic certifications to confirm and measure their prospective employees’ academic qualifications. On the other hand, these employers lack a standardized process for confirming the legitimacy of academic certificates or degrees. Because the present procedures for verifying educational certifications are time-consuming, exhausting, and costly, just a few employers verify certificates for prospective employees. This research examines the issues that are related to the smart verification of someone’s credentials. To make the process of verifying digital credentials quicker, simpler, and more cost-effective, we suggest decentralized architecture. We present the prototype, design, and implementation of the proposed framework.

10.11591/ijeecs.v40.i1.pp57-66
Dinh Chung Phan , Dinh Truc Ha
This paper suggested an algorithm to choose the optimal location of wind turbines (WT) in a distribution grid. The optimal position is calculated so that the maximal voltage variance in the distribution grid is minimized. This paper considers the harmonic current emitted by WT and the limitation of total harmonic distortion of voltage waves at nodes in the distribution grid. This proposed approach is written in MATLAB software and validated through a sample distribution grid, IEEE 33-bus. The verifying results demonstrated that by applying the suggested algorithm, the maximal voltage variance due to the variation of the power output of WT is minimized, the total harmonic distortion value at all buses remains within the operating range, and the electrical loss in the grid is reduced. Moreover, by considering the limitation of total harmonic distortion, the number of WT allowed to be installed in the grid is able to limited.

Poor road conditions present considerable obstacles for individuals, resulting in asset loss, bodily harm, and time inefficiency. Approximately 1.35 million fatalities are attributable to road traffic incidents. The Department of Public Works and Town & Country Planning conducted road surveys to assess and strategize maintenance efforts. The manual car survey requires additional time and an excessive budget. The automated system of artificial intelligence (AI) is widely recognized. This paper presents a model to detect road surface conditions utilizing video data. Four versions of convolutional neural networks (CNN) were utilized for this work. The model evaluation employed the mean average precision (mAP) measure. The video data was acquired via a smartphone mounted in a vehicle, comprising 10,984 photos for training and 2,198 images for testing. We trained and evaluated four versions of CNN architectures named YOLO, utilizing our data and GPU, with a specific emphasis on identifying cracks, potholes, and the condition of manhole covers. Of the architectures evaluated, YOLO V6 attained the greatest mAP score in comparison YOLO V5 to YOLO V8. The testing results with batch sizes of 4, 8, 16, and 32 are effective. The batch size of 32 yields the highest performance, achieving 87.38% mAP. Conduct the dropout normalization using rates of 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1. The maximum mAP is observed with a dropout rate of 0.25, yielding a mAP of 85.40%. The model indicates that the government conducted road surface inspections with enhanced efficiency, enabling the planning of road repairs for public utility issues, which can lower transportation costs. Additionally, the model can be utilized to identify hazardous road conditions and minimize vehicular accident rates.

In scenarios involving mobile sensors within distributed sensor systems, such as those often encountered in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) or the internet of things (IoT), the ability to ascertain the origin of sensor data holds significant importance. Range-free Monte Carlo Localization methods offer an energy-efficient solution that eliminates the need for extra hardware, as they solely rely on the radio hardware already present on sensor nodes. But there are certain disadvantages when implemented, as it occupies more amount of power and some inaccuracies might happen in accessing the data from the sensor node. In this paper, we suggest the grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) strategy, which incorporates the distance-vector hop (DVHop) and three-anchor methods. It displays its usefulness in terms of both overall localization accuracy and resistance to hostile attacks or malfunctioning nodes. Nonetheless, the incorporation of dead reckoning based on motion sensor data significantly enhances the precision of location estimates and bolsters the network's robustness against both faulty components and malicious agents.

Pothala Ramya , Chappa Ramesh , Odugu Srinivasa Rao
The root cause of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is unknown except for a very tiny number of family instances caused by a genetic mutation. A thorough examination of particular brain disorders’ tissues is necessary to correctly identify the circumstances using scans of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and specific non-brain tissues, like the neck, skin, muscle, and fat, make further investigation challenging and can be seen in MRI scans. This work aims to use the FSL-BET skull stripping tool to remove non-brain tissues and extract the significant region of the brain- deep learning (DL) techniques rather than machine learning (ML) models helpful in classification and predictions. The most frequent issue with DL models is which needs a lot of training data, causes to problems with class imbalance. To avoid imbalance issues, we used data augmentation to ensure that the samples were distributed equally among the classes. A novel transfer learning Alzheimer’s disease network (TL-AzNet) based visual geometry group-19 (VGG19) technique was developed in this study. Conducted a comparison study using the base and suggested models, comparing over data with oversampling versus non-oversampling. The novel model predicted AD with a 95% accuracy rate.

Parminder Singh , Saurabh Dhyani
Understanding user views on social media in the advent of internet content demands sentiment analysis. This study introduces a novel approach called particle swarm-accelerated model (PSAM), that integrates deep learning with long short-term memory (LSTM) with two hyper-parameters and swarm intelligence through particle swarm optimization (PSO). In the sentiment classification of YouTube movie reviews for “Pushpa 2,” the recommended approach classifies opinions as “positive,” “negative,” or “neutral,” with an accuracy score of 95.3%. The process involved utilizing YouTube API to collect user-genearted comments, followed by advanced preprocessing steps such as punctuation removal, stopword filtering, slang normalization, and emoji handling. PSO performs feature selection to boost the efficiency of classification systems. The PSAM model reaches superior outcome results compared to support vector machines (SVM), Naive Bayes, CNN, and random forest classifiers when evaluated based on F1-score and accuracy metrics. The proposed hybrid model demonstrates its ability to boost sentiment analysis in different social media platforms according to research findings.
