This research paper portraits the technique to determine location of submerged nodes with Cayley-Menger determinant and associated problems with non-parallel states. Cayley-Menger determinant is considered to be the usual means to determine the coordinates of the nodes with a single node where the plane of beacon i.e. beacon’s surfing plane and the plane created by…

The differences of stunting through socio-economic and productive indicators in high Andean community of Peru were evaluated ((11°42′58.16′′ S, 75°37′31.13′′ W, altitude 3470 m). Cross-sectional study in 52 mothers with children under 5 years old was carried. A validated nutritional survey was applied. Z-scores height for age and nutritional status were determined using anthropometric methods…

The experimental findings of the main units of readout electronics of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) based on array chip (AC) МН2ХА030: a charge-sensitive amplifier (CSA) with an adjustable conversion factor and a base line restorer (BLR) circuit and two types of voltage comparators are considered. The electrical circuits of the units, the measurement results of static…

Over time, several routing protocols have been suggested for use in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). Because of availability of so many MANETs routing protocols, network engineers and administrators face difficulties in identifying an appropriate routing protocol for a particular scenario. This challenge results from the unavailability of adequate technical analytic studies designed to examine…

Auditors now can no longer rely on the old-fashioned way of auditing manually. More and more jobs, increasingly complex work environment, the demands of the times, accuracy and speed of work require auditors inevitably must adopt technology. This research began with our success as academics in the audit family. Related to Indonesia, a large country…

This article considers the creation of a program / website as an example of a centralized system for all universities in order to more easily familiarize an applicant and / or student with the internal politics and capabilities of the university. Existing problems in the training system are examined, why distance learning is relevant, what…

Nowadays Augmented Reality (AR) is very popular in teaching and learning, especially in leading student to observe learning material targets which supported by online learning resources using mobile device and wireless technology. Because English is a foreign language, most students have problems in learning English. Generally, their problems were related to low motivation, bad study…

The need to optimally explore Nigeria’s diverse mineral resource endowments via sustainable value chain practices has, in recent times, been the focus of the Nigerian government and relevant stakeholders. This development has amongst other things, been made a necessity since the decline in Nigeria’s crude oil export and earnings, as well as the increased effort…

Dementia is one of the three primary diseases that increases the level of nursing care required for the elderly. Dementia can lead to an increased burden not only on those who have contracted it, but also their families and the surrounding environment; initiatives for preventing dementia and slowing the decline of cognitive function are expected…

This paper discusses a new Tone Mapping (TM) approach converting a High Dynamic Range (HDR) image into a Low Dynamic Range (LDR) image able at the same time to extract the relevant details and enhance the contrast of LDR images to ensure a good LDR image visual quality. This approach uses an advantage of multiresolution…

Dental plaque is considered a possible causative agent of major dental diseases. People must develop oral care skills at an early age with family support. This study aims to assist parents and to reduce children’s fear while cleaning their teeth. An interactive game challenges children’s brushing ability. Arduino modules and software platform was utilized to…

The goal of this research work is first to investigate the comparison between a batch and a continuous pyrolysis reactor (at 500, 550 and 600 °C) and the eventual differences and similarities that are obtained by analysing the obtained liquid and gas compositions. All the products formed were examined: liquids by GC-MS/FID and Karl Fischer…

This paper represents analysis of principles providing maximally reliable delay estimation of signal synchronization devices in telecommunication. Clock synchronization schemes on the base of stochastic models, graph-analytic interpretation, analytical functional description and their parameters selection in case of real complex hindrance are analyzed. Dependences between dispersion of maximally reliable estimation of synchronization devices and signal…

Breast cancer has an important incidence in women mortality worldwide. Currently, mam- mography is considered the gold standard for breast abnormalities screening examinations, since it aids in the early detection and diagnosis of the illness. However, both identification of mass lesions and its malignancy classification is a challenging problem for artificial intelligence. In this work,…

Recurrent Neural Networks has been widely used by researchers in the domain of weather prediction. Weather Prediction is forecasting the atmosphere for the future. In this proposed paper, Deep LSTM networks has been implemented which is the variant of RNNs having additional memory block and gates making them capable of remembering long term dependencies. Fifteen…

It was analyzed certain information about cyberattacks in Latin America and methods to counteract the aggressions that affect services, data and infrastructure. The problem is the cyberattack on information networks where there is interdependence between processes, people and devices within public organizations with the negative consequence of denial of services. The objective is to propose…

Technological developments in the Internet and communications have created a vastly complex and dynamic context with diverse heterogeneous networks and fast growth of mobile devices and multimedia. As the Internet becomes the primary mode of communication for many organisations there is requirement to enhance quality of service (QoS) from heterogeneous systems and networks. Traditional networks…

Many real-life applications based on the wireless sensor networks are equipped with data aggregation mechanisms for suppressing or even overcoming negative environmental effects and data redundancy. In this paper, we present an extended analysis of the linear average consensus algorithm for distributed summing with bounded execution over wireless sensor networks. We compare a centralized and…

This paper focuses on the issue of distributed reinforcement learning (RL) for decision-making in cooperative multi-agent systems. Although this problem has been a topic of interest to many researchers, results obtained from these works aren’t sufficient and several difficulties have not yet been resolved, such as, the curse of dimensionality and the multi-agent coordination problem.…

The study objective was to design and evaluate the agroecological system of an agricultural model with vegetable covers (Luffa cylindrica, Cyclanthera pedata and Mucuna pruriens) associated with tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill), Rio Grande and Cherry varieties. The agroecological system is shown with its components of inputs, processes and outputs. The main entrances being solar…

Obstacles, both imagined and real, continue to hinder the wider adoption of Education 4.0 learning technologies although these technologies are available in the mainstream consumer market. At the same time, the boom in Industry 4.0 manufacturing has brought down the prices of these technological tools making them generally more affordable. A case in point is…

Stress occurring in the early days of an individual was often assumed to cause several health consequences. A number of reports indicated that having to deal with unfavourable events or distress situation at a young age could tweak stress responses leading to a broad spectrum of poor mental and physical health condition. Therefore, changes identified…

In this paper, we present an experimental approach that allows a humanoid robot to effectively plan and execute whole body motions, like climbing obstacles and straight stairs up or down, besides jumping over obstacles using only on-board sensing. Re- liable and accurate motion sequence for humanoid employed in complex indoor en- vironments is a necessity…
