Brainwaves has an important security and communication implication. Nevertheless, the reliability of the methods for discrimination between genuine and imposter is still in infancy. Efforts to enhance the reliability have exact identification using EEG. As EEG is non-stationary signal, the use of the joint time-frequency feature may be yield more reliable results. In this paper we have used cerebral...
In this paper an intelligent technique for the determination of the oral cancer stages is proposed. Fuzzy If-then rules have been defined which governs the decision of the proposed system and then trained by neural network. The system is then simulated on adaptive neurofuzzy system toolbox and results have been generated. The final results show a training error equal to 0.219, which is very close...
The leading cause of transformer failure is `insulation failure', which includes oil contamination. Cause of transformer failure due to inadequate operation and maintenance has to bear the blame for not discovering incipient troubles when there was ample time to correct it. Regular sampling and testing of insulation oil taken from transformer is a valuable technique in a preventive maintenance program...
Automobile brake by wire system has become a promising vehicle braking control scheme and enhancing braking performance over conventional hydraulic system. But these brakes require high power to generate actuation force and also problem of clogging is faced. This paper presents a novel methodology to improve braking quality and to tackle the problem of brake by wire system by introducing hybrid braking...
This paper aims at the development and implementation of a methodology to extract specifications of products from HTML pages containing product details from various e-commerce portals. The extracted resultant data needs to be in a standardised uniform format without any reflection of its initial structure in source format. The most significant problem in designing a solution is the source of the data...
In this paper we propose an intelligent wheelchair which can assist physically handicapped, visually impaired as well as elderly people. Elderly and physically challenged people often find themselves unable to do their daily routine work without other's help. In today's fast world where people don't have enough time for others, elderly and physically challenged people need to be independent. Our wheelchair...
Resolution holds an important significance in images produced by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The clarity and feature identification of an image varies both with range and azimuth resolution parameter of SAR. The majority of resolution improvement in an image formed using SAR depends largely on antenna size of the radar. In this paper a comparative study of various images using Chirp Scaling Algorithm...
Proliferation of non-linear loads resulted in the problems of harmonics, unbalancing, poor power factor. To overcome this active power line conditioner (APLC) is used. In this paper, an artificial neural network (ANN) based controller for active power line conditioner is presented, in which feedforward neural network, trained by levenberg marquardt (LM) algorithm is implemented for generating reference...
This paper presents an overview of data acquisition, data logging and supervisory control of different parameters for green house application. In this work a Green House system is considered, where data from various parameters are needed to be acquired, logged in a database for further analysis and supervisory control. This paper acquires data of surrounding temperatures of the Green House and pH...
Wireless sensor networks are associated with risk due to the threats of security vulnerabilities. In this context, we propose a scheme, which uses random key distribution based Artificial Immune System (AIS) for detecting spoofing attacks. The prospective method is for clustered sensor networks and as an example, the algorithm is executed on LEACH protocol. The simulation results prove that the design...
In this digital era most of the information is made available in digital form. For many years, people have held the hypothesis that using phrases for a representation of document and topic should perform better than terms. In this paper we are examine and investigate this fact with considering several state of art datamining methods that gives satisfactory results to improve the effectiveness of the...
Wireless sensor network (WSN) is undoubtedly an area of sophisticated research work. The credibility of this astonishing system may be affected by faults due to harsh and hazardous natural calamities from time to time. A WSN that is not ready to deal with such challenging situations may suffer a reduction in overall lifetime or may lead to dire consequences in critical application context. So fault...
In this paper, an improved power quality converter is presented for harmonic mitigation in SMPS (Switched Mode Power Supply) for telecom power applications with reduced kVA rating. The proposed ac-dc converter is found capable of suppressing less than 23rd harmonic in the supply current along with the power factor improvement close to unity in the wide operating range. The effect of load variation...
In this paper we propose a hybrid approach for Content Based Image Retrieval that takes into account both global as well as local features of an image. Towards this, first Stationary Wavelet Transform is applied on query image to extract horizontal, vertical and diagonal detail matrices. Stationary Wavelet Transform is used because of its translational invariant property. After this global textural...
In this paper, a wireless monitoring system for three phase induction motor is realized using ZigBee protocol, where wired communication is either more expensive or impossible due to physical conditions and human hazards for safe and economic data communication in industrial fields. A low cost system for measuring the parameters of induction motor such as phase voltages, phase currents, active power,...
This paper describes a Smart Grid architecture implemented with the help of Web of Things. Web of Things comprise of a set of Web services provided on top of a number of Internet enabled Embedded devices. The Web browser on any computer can act as an interface to the services provided by these Web of Things. The Embedded devices are ARM Cortex M3 Processor based devices with Ethernet capabilities...
