Estimation Solar radiation is the most significant part of the optimization of solar power. This may be achieved if the solar radiation is predicted well in advance. Meteorological stations have radiation measuring devices like pyranometer, pyrheliometer, radiometer, solarimeter, etc. however, it may not be available at the location of interest for researchers. Due to this…

This paper addresses the generation of stylized texts in a multilingual setup.

Phonetics seems to have a comparable contribution to the overall model performance as the information on the…

An artificial neural network (ANN) computing system can be significantly influenced by its implementation type. The software implemented ANN can produce high accuracy output with slow computation time performance compared to hardware implemented ANN which runs at a faster computation time but with low accuracy. Normally, software implementation reduces the proficiency and efficiency of the…

There is no doubt that a good knowledge of traffic demand has a direct impact on improving traffic management.

Modeling of direct expansion (DX) air conditioning and heat pump systems can be necessary in developing energy saving methods required to reduce energy consumption in buildings. The artificial neural networks (ANN) can be simple and reliable as compared to traditional methods. A properly trained artificial neural network can provide accurate results, while being relatively straightforward…

This manuscript offers an in-depth analysis of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), em- phasizing its crucial role in developing transparent and ethically compliant AI systems. It traces AI’s evolution from basic algorithms to complex systems capable of autonomous de- cisions with self-explanation. The paper distinguishes between explainability—making AI decision processes understandable to humans—and interpretability, which provides…

Determining the best candidates for a certain job rapidly has been one of the most interesting subjects for recruiters and companies due to high costs and times that takes the process. The accuracy of the models, particularly, is heavily influenced by the discriminant variables that are chosen for predicting the candidates scores. This study aims…

The main purpose in this work is to explore the fact that chaos, as a biological characteristic in the brain, should be used in an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) system. In fact, as long as chaos is present in brain functionalities, its properties need empirical investigations to show their potential to enhance accuracies in artificial…

In grid connected wind turbine (WT) systems, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) approach has a crucial role in optimizing the wind energy efficiency. To search for the maximum power value of the wind turbine, this contribution proposes a new Maximum Power Point Tracking System (MPPT) for wind turbine related to a permanent magnet synchronous…

With the advent of the Internet of Things Technologies (IOT), smart homes, and smart city applications, E-Nose was created. Almost of gas sensors consisting the electronic nose system suffer from cross sensitivity and lack of selectivity. Coupling smart gas sensors with artificial intelligence algorithms can thus empower conventional gas sensing technologies and increase accuracy in…

As many digital documents are required in various environments, paper documents are digitized by scanner, fax, digital camera and specific software. In the case of a scanned document, we need to check whether the document is right sided or upside down because the orientation of the scanned document is determined by the orientation in which…

Bull service is the natural copulation by a purebred male carabao with a female counterpart. This is part of the bull loan agenda of the Philippine Carabao Center-Visayas State University (PCC-VSU), one of the 12 regional centers of PCC. For the past years, PCC-VSU used averaging of bull services count of previous years and sometimes…
