Different colleges and universities have different approaches to dealing with low-performance learners. However, in most cases, analgesics do not deal with root problems. This research suggests a model of three layers of variables sequentially adaptable to a deep-root issue. The suggested model can identify early pupils who could be at risk because of inaccurate or…

Collaborative filtering of recommended systems (CFRSs) suffers from overrun false rating injections that diverge the system functions for creating accurate recommendations. In this paper, we propose a three-stage unsupervised approach. Starts by defining the mechanism(s) that makes recommendation vulnerable to attack. Second, find the maximum-paths or the associated related items valued by the user. We…

Public organizations are subjected to a complex security situation, which can be addressed by permanently strengthening and evaluating their cybersecurity capabilities. The objective of this research is to develop a model to identify the cybersecurity management capacity of public organizations. The deductive method was applied for the review and analysis of criteria, factors and variables…

The “Electronic Nose” approach, which is exclusive to gas measurement systems, uses gas sensors as odor detectors. Design faults exist in the existing electronic nose (e-nose) chamber, such as its large volume, difficult construction, etc. In order to obtain measurements in a satisfactory state, we want to create a gas chamber that can provide favorable…

Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) is an international model for mapping and classifying underground surfaces according to their accuracy (acquisition method). Utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS) to map and present the SUE levels paved the way for producing a new Decision Support System (DSS) for the utility mapping process. The proposed system represents an efficient tool…

In this paper, a new syndrome block for Reed Solomon RS and BCH codes used respectively in digital Video broadcasting DVB-S and DVB-S2 has been presented in order to reduce the number of iterations compared to the existed block, which can be found in the literature, the new method is based on a factorization of…

Sleep stage performs a vital role in people’s daily lives in the detection of sleep-related diseases. Conventional automated sleep stage classifier models are not efficient due to the complexity linked to the design of mathematical models and extraction of hand-engineering features. Further, quick oscillations amongst sleep stages frequently lead to indistinct feature extraction, which might…

Edge detection-based image steganography schemes usually embed data in edge pixels only. However, some schemes embed data in non-edge pixels as well. In that case, the schemes embed more bits in the edges than in the smoothed areas. In all cases, the schemes perform large changes in a tiny area of the image during small…

The paper presents two robust and efficient control algorithms based on (i) Optimal Control Allocation (OCA) and (ii) Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC). The robotics system consists of two rovers with mecanum wheels and mounted two 7-DOF arms carrying a common load. The overall system is an underdetermined one with non-holonomic constraints. The developed control…

Most anthropomorphic robotic hands use a lot of actuators to imitate the number of joints and the movement of the human hand. As a result, the forearm of the robot hand has a large size for the installation of all actuators. This robot hand is designed to reduce the number of actuators, but also retain…

The increase of servers in data centers has become a significant problem in recent years that leads to a rise in energy consumption. The problem of high energy consumed by data centers is always related to the active hardware especially the servers that use virtualization to create a cloud workspace for the users. For this…

In recent years the development of autonomous vehicles has increased tremendously and a variety of methodologies had been applied to make them more safe and secure. This work shows a multilevel approach combining Failure Mode, Effects and Criticality Analysis of an autonomous railway system with sociological and technical aspects to support safe operations and human-machine…

Knowledge of pedestrian and vehicle movement patterns can provide valuable insights for city planning. Such knowledge can be acquired via passive outdoor localization of WiFi-enabled devices using measurements of Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) from WiFi probe requests. In this paper, which is an extension of the work initially presented in WiMob 2021, we continue…

Aging is considered to be a complex process in almost every species’ life, which can be studied at a variety of levels of abstraction as well as in different organs. Not surprisingly, biometric characteristics from facial images play a significant role in predicting human’s age. Specifically, automatic age estimation in real-time situation has begun to…

To reduce the time necessary for determination of tsunami source parameters it is proposed to optimize the location of sensors system and to use only a part of the measured wave profile. Based on computation, it is possible to balance the number of sensors in use and the time period after the earthquake needed to…

In Senegal, agriculture has always been seen as the foundation on which the socioeconomic development of the country rests. However, in the rural world, agriculture remains traditional at a time when the challenges of food self-sufficiency to accompany emergence are launched. In the southern part of Senegal commonly called Casamance, the abundance of rain makes…

While it is commonly accepted that climate change needs to be addressed to protect both human and environmental health, it is not widely understood what steps need to be taken to accomplish this daunting task. Additionally, there is currently no formal definition of what constitutes a ‘green’ company or ‘green’ best practice, despite the rising…

This paper presents the results of a documentary research on the use of information technology in emergency remote teaching in 66 higher educational institutions in Brazil. The theoretical background of this study is based on the works of Feenberg, Bagglaey, Veloso & Mill, Castañeda & Selwyn and Hodges. The methodological approach consisted of analyzing reports…

Bird watchers and people obsessed with raising and taming birds make a kind of motivation about our subject. It consists of the creation of an Android application called ”Birds Images Predictor” which helps users to recognize nearly 210 endemic bird species in the world. The proposed solution compares the performance of the python script, which…

Seto Inland Sea is situated between Japanese islands Honshu, Kyushu, and Shikoku. It is separated from the ocean by the Bungo Channel, Kii Channel, and other narrow straits around Shikoku Island. The objective of the article is to draw the attention to the question of how well the coastal population and infrastructure of those locations…

Process mining is an innovative technique through which inefficiencies in production systems can be eliminated. This technique has therefore become very important internationally in recent years and is also useful for pursuing the improvement of production systems by extrapolating process knowledge from event logs recorded by information systems. Process mining has easy application in production…

The constant evolution of Information and Communication Technologies, Internet, access to different free software, among others; they generate problems in the management of information security in companies; to mitigate risks, vulnerabilities, and information threats, an alternative was presented considering that information security systems are the basis for decision-making at the government, strategic, tactical, and operational…

Many consequences can be resulted in mismanagement of crowd, which might get people injured or even lose their lives. Thus, crowd management helps in controlling overcrowded areas during events, and allowing authorities to monitor, manage and reduce incidents. Space science and technology have made huge leap in crowd management, let alone when this technology integrated…

Having reasonable inventory control is a priority for any company because a lack of inventory could incur economic losses. Not having the necessary stock for the timely production of your orders could generate dissatisfaction in your customers and possibly cause them to lose them. Likewise, reasonable inventory control allows quick decision-making for the company’s benefit.…
