This paper This paper presents a reliable method for image segmentation using a fuzzy inference system. The Fuzzy Membership function is applied on the YCbCr color space. Triangular membership functions are used in the input of the fuzzy system, Mamdani type fuzzy inference system is applied and for the output universe, singleton-type functions are used;…

The navigation control of an autonomous vehicle can be determined by the coordinates of a GPS (Global Positioning System) positioning system, angular velocity, and acceleration with an INS (Inertial Navigation System). However, the errors associated with these devices do not allow it to be the only measurement system used in an autonomous vehicle. The need…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for both civil and military applications. Unmanned aerial vehicles can be categorized into two categories: rotary-wing and fixed-wing. Due to its capacity to fly long distances and carry substantial payloads, fixed-wing UAVs are gaining popularity and are currently utilized for various tasks. However, when confronted with disturbances…

Globally, road transportation has become one of the most reliable means of moving goods and services from one place to the other. It has contributed immensely to the standard of living and modern civilization. However, this means of transportation is characterised by some issues which are poised to be harmful to the human population if…

We are interested in taking into account ambiguity in the analysis phase of data warehouses, using fuzzy logic. We want to offer decision makers the possibility of using natural language in this phase. We created in a previous work the Baccalaureate fuzzy data warehouse which we were able to query with seven natural language terms…

This article aims at comparing two controls to follow the maximum power point, making use of DC-DC converters for PV uses. All transformers operate continuously. To fulfil maximum power, we will exploit two MPPT controls: a traditional perturb – observe ‘P&O’ and a smart one – the fuzzy logic ‘FL’. The goal of this article…

Assessing academic performance is a common way of evaluating and assessing the abilities of students in tertiary institutions. Usually it is practically performed based on the cumulative grade point average (GPA) at the end of each semester passed. Unwittingly there are many factors that are able to influence student performance results apart from GPA as…

Advances in the world of communications and information technology, as well as the urgent necessity to monitor particular areas and regions, have led to a considerable and influential development in the world of wireless sensor nodes. As they are small, low-cost multi-purpose nodes with limited energy and capabilities. The most important points that deserve research…

Transformer health assessment techniques, based on applicable standards, such as the dissolved gas analysis (DGA), through laboratory testing or online monitoring are used to analyze the symptoms of a failure which develops in transformers from an early stage. The DGA from a sample of dielectric liquid taken from the main tank generates information on the…

The revolution in the electrification of conventional vehicles due to increased petroleum prices and environmental concerns has had its impact on three-wheeler vehicles as well. Motorized three-wheeled vehicles, known as Auto-rickshaws, are a standard mode of trans- portation in India. Existing battery operated electric rickshaws (known as E-rickshaws) available in major cities of India faces…

Since the release of of the IPv6 Routing protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks by the IETF ROLL working group, several enhancement schemes were proposed. In fact, They aim to extend the network lifetime, reduce congestion, mitigate end to end delay and moderate energy consumption. In fact, considering the vast area of Low-Power and Lossy…

For marketing company, determining the best marketing is a strategic decision. It is able to affect the companys future purposefully. The study conducted to propose a novel decision support model (DSM) for determining the best marketer. Seventeen parameters were considered into model and two methods fuzzy logic and profile-matching (PM) were combined as main method…

Since its appearance, COVID-19 has severely impacted the healthcare sector all over the world. The healthcare organizations should be agile in order to cope with this new health crisis. Indeed, organization agility was highly recommended as an essential basis for flexibility, innovation, speed, as well competitiveness. Different research provided different conceptual models suitable to evaluate…

The greenhouse climate system is very hard to manipulate because the variables involved are closely correlated. This study aims to enhance the regulation performance of greenhouse climate system based on adaptive neural-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). The ANFIS is a hybrid technique that incorporates the fuzzy logic theory and artificial neural network algorithms. The employed control…

A control of the greenhouse when it is connected to the photovoltaic generator is described in this paper. The greenhouse is modulated by differential equations while the temperature and humidity are regulated using the fuzzy logic controller. The photovoltaic system can supply maximum power for a specified voltage and output current. In addition, the fuzzy…

This survey paper deals with the structural health monitoring systems on the basis of methodologies involving intelligent techniques. The intelligent techniques are the most popular tools for damage identification in terms of high accuracy, reliable nature and the involvement of low cost. In this critical survey, a thorough analysis of various intelligent techniques is carried…

Reliable operation of a power transformer with a certain load depends on the technical condition of individual construction parts and the ability to prevent defects that can cause a failure. During the lifecycle of a transformer, valuable data is constantly accumulated, which forms the basis for technical or risk assessment of the equipment. Therefore it…

In this paper first discussion approach will stress out the integration of model predictive control in maximum power point tracking MPPT and as progressing a second approach identified as fuzzy logic controller FLC and perturb & Observe P&O algorithms are analyzed. All are interrelated to MPPT model for a photovoltaic module, PVM, to search for…

The sector of telecommunications is experiencing a large growth and rapid change in developing applications due to the variety of technologies, to increase the number of users and to arrival services varied from the high demand of the service quality such as streaming, web navigation. In this regard, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) organization…
