Face explicitly provides the direct and quick way to evaluate human soft biometric information such as race, age and gender. Race is a group of human beings who differ from human beings of other races with respect to physical or social attributes. Race identification plays a significant role in applications such as criminal judgment and…

Our research investigates the use of causal modeling and its application towards mapping out cybersecurity threat patterns. We test the strength of various methods of data breaches over its impact on the breach’s discovery time as well as the number of records lost. Utilizing a Causal Modeling framework, we simulate the isolation of confounding variables…

Recently, digital image forgery detection is an emergent and important area of image processing. Digital image plays a vital role in providing evidence for any unusual incident. However, the image forgery my hide evidence and prevents the detection of such criminal cases due to advancement in image processing and availability of sophisticated software tamper of…

The banking industry is very competitive. To utilize the information, they have in order to be a competitive advantage winner is reasonably very crucial for the company. At present, the company does not only focus on the company’s strategy that prioritizes products (e.g. product or service oriented), however also necessitates to focus on the company’s…

Nowadays, process automation and smart systems have gained increasing importance in a wide variety of sectors, and robotics have a fundamental role in it. Therefore, it has attracted greater research interests; among them, Underactuated Mechanical Systems (UMS) have been the subject of many studies, due to their application capabilities in different disciplines. Nevertheless, control of…

The paper proposes the design and simulation of a 6 Degree of Freedom (DOF) robotic arm, tailored for the coconut crop harvesting, assistive robots like wheelchairs and Home robots, Search and rescue robots for disastrous environments, Collaborative robots for research use. A kinematics-based solution has been developed for the robotic arm which makes it easier…

The Gembong reservoir in Pati Regency, Java, Indonesia is a rain-fed reservoir, which experiences a depletion of it carrying capacity. The characteristic of local rainfall is one of the important factors in assessing the potential of hydrometeorology disasters in its area. Sedimentation in watersheds and reservoirs has covered water sources, so local rainfall determines the…

Among the most popular tools in security field is the anomaly based Intrusion Detection System (IDS), it detects intrusions by learning to classify the normal activities of the network. Thus if any abnormal activity or behaviour is recognized it raises an alarm to inform the users of a given network. Nevertheless, IDS is generally susceptible…

The objective of the research is to determine the changes in wrinkling and thinning behavior in the stamping process of the top outer hatchback. The study was conducted using two types of materials, i.e., SCGA (Steel Cold rolled Galvanized Annealed) and SPCC (Steel Plate Cold rolled Coiled) with a thickness of 0.80 mm. During the…

The emerging trend of modern industry automation requires intelligence to be embedded into mobile robot for ensuring optimal or near-optimal solutions to execute certain task. This yield to a lot of improvement and suggestions in many areas related to mobile robot such as path planning. The purpose of this paper is to review the mobile…

With the current amount of data nowadays, the need for processing power has vastly grown. By relying on CPU processing power, current processing power is depending on the frequency and parallelism of the current CPU device. This means this method will lead to increased power consumption. Current research has shown that by utilize the power…

The increasing cost of fishmeal and soybean meal forces us to look for unconventional sources of protein to feed guinea pigs, being able to use earthworm meal Eisenia foetida (EF) with 60-80% high quality raw protein; for this, the contribution of digestible nutrients and metabolizable energy must be known to formulate rations. The objective is…

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…

Analytical researches on a potential performance of multipath multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems inspire the development of new technologies that decompose a MIMO channel into independent sub-channels on the condition of constrained transmit power. Moreover, in current studies of inter-symbol interference (ISI) MIMO systems, there is an assumption that channel state information (CSI) at receivers and/or…

The main assets of universities are students.
