The presence of urban parks and green spaces in the city can play a role in maintaining urban residents’ quality of life. Parks in Manila are located near main thoroughfares. Since people usually go to parks for recreation and relaxation it is important to have an idea of the concentration of criteria pollutants at these…

Recent technological advances allow us to utilize remote monitoring systems or real-time access of data. While the use of remote monitoring systems is not new, there are still numerous applications that can be explored and improved on, one such is groundwater level and quality monitoring. In the Philippines, the extraction of groundwater for both domestic…

This research sought to measure some socio-political indicators using millions of opinionated messages from social network sourced big data. Thus, and using an enhanced mixed method for sentiment analysis and a fusion model algorithm to infer topics from short text, this study attempted to demonstrate the value of computational approaches in measuring some phenomena in…

After studying the aviation problems in Iraq, on one hand, and because Iraq has various weather characteristics due to its different terrains (i.e. mountains, plain fields, and deserts). We discussed these problems with pilots and aviation specialists, and came to the conclusion that the main offset faced is vision deficiency is foggy and dusty weather.…

This paper presents a comparative study for using the classic networks in remote sensing images classification. There are four deep convolution models that used in this comparative study; the DenseNet 196, the NASNet Mobile, the VGG 16, and the ResNet 50 models. These learning convolution models are based on the use of the ImageNet pre-trained…

Feature extraction is an important process in image classification for achieving an efficient accuracy for the classification learning models. One of these methods is using the convolution neural networks. The use of the trained classic deep convolution neural networks as features extraction gives a considerable results in the remote sensing images classification models. So, this…

A gas sensor array is used for gas analysis to aid in an inspection. The signals from the sensor array are fed into machine learning models for learning and classification. These signals are characterized by time series fluctuating according to the environment or drift. When an unseen pattern is entered, the classification may be incorrect,…

A remotely mobile phone controlled electronic system for supplying water to garden plantations in a greenhouse or similar environment was designed and experimentally implemented. The system monitors the garden environmental conditions such as soil moisture, temperature, humidity and sunlight and a remote user can send commands from his mobile phone such as to switch ON/OFF…

With the current emerging development pattern in Malaysia, E-Government has been unveiled by the Malaysian Government to be one of the multimedia super corridor flagship applications to implement digital technology to improve government operations. E-procurement was originally utilized by businesses to minimize turnaround times and prices, but recently it was often used as a platform…

Dengue is a viral infection disease transmitted to people through the bite of specific mosquito species living in a tropical zone. According to the World Health Organization, dengue has been listed among the top-ten diseases for 2019 as it makes 3.9 billion people in 128 countries be at risk of infection. One major cause of…

The Center for Analysis and Information Services (Palinfo) at the Judicial Commission closely related to the management of information systems which are used to process organizational internal data and information systems on public services. Data processing and network management have an information system security risk. The Judicial Commission seeks to reduce risk and improve the…

Degradation measurements are often treated and analyzed for improvement the reliability of system. Our objective in this paper is to study a class of non linear systems, whose dynamics and observations are non linear functions of the state. Obviously, we develop an Extended Kalman Filtering (EKF) algorithm for detecting the additive failures in a two…

Human behavior quantification is an essential part of psychological science. One of the cases is measuring human personality. Social media provide rich text, which can be beneficial as a data source to get valuable insight. Previous researches show that social media offered favorable circumstances for psychological researchers by tracking, analyzing, and predicting human character. In…

Increasing the telecommunications products that allow Vector Network Analyzer is becoming more common tools to measure the S-Parameter. It will be an absolute number from the S-Parameter measurements produced in real and imaginary, other words it is also known as the product of the calculation. The calculation findings do not include the systematic and random…

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…

One of the most prevalent physical limitations of both aging and accidents is immobility. Being bedridden requires great care to avoid the formation of pressure ulcers. Thus, the ‘ActiveRest’ project aimed to develop a textile mattress guard that will contribute to the prevention of pressure ulcers. This textile mattress guard integrates a monitoring system, based…

This paper proposes an algorithm aimed at quantifying the expression of KI-67 protein in digital images of breast biopsy tissue samples obtained through an optical microscope. The algorithm allows to obtain a report on the quantity of non-proliferating and proliferating cells through the detection and quantification of KI-67. The sample analysis via software aims to…

With advances in information and communication technologies and internet technologies, we have many benefits in our daily life. Most people have smart devices and use them for their work and leisure, and so on. However, these advances technologies brought us various side effects such as copyright violation, internet addiction, cybercrimes, personal information infringement, etc. In…

This paper proposed a frequency bandwidth required for the Control and Non-Payload Communications (CNPC) in autonomous operations of the Maritime Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS). The issue was to seek a radio spectrum to meet future demand for safe operations of autonomous ship at sea. As described in Document 5B/841 of ITU-R SG, safe navigation of…

Current work demonstrates how open-source optimization library ”Extremum” (OSOL Extremum) can be used to build feedback controller of a satellite. Proposed software was developed to as an attempt to eliminate current problems that are present in scientific area: black-box effect (i.e. there is no opportunity to explore source code, modify it, or simply verify), no…

Recently, augmented reality (AR) technology has been applied to the inter- action technology between human and virtual objects. In AR interaction technology, it is necessary for users to be able to manipulate virtual objects intuitively. Thus, we focus on manipulating virtual objects directly with the user’s bare hands in this study. On the other hand,…

The frequency dependent grid impedance at the terminals of an electrical supply grid is an essential parameter for power quality and grid feedback analysis. In this contribution the identification of the grid impedance is achieved using spectral excitation currents at the corresponding grid connection point, which generate measureable changes in the grid voltage spectra. Different…

Space debris removal is currently a critical issue for space development. It has been reported that five pieces of debris should be removed each year to avoid further increase in the amount of debris in orbit. One approach for the removal of multiple pieces of debris is to launch multiple satellites that can each remove…
