Predicting trainees’ final academic results in the early stage of programming class is a significant mission in the field of learning analytics. Performing exercises in programming class is hard and it takes a lot of time for trainees. For this reason, careful support with trainees are offered in many classes through classroom assistants (CAs). Even…

This paper examines application of linear general model predictive control (LGMPC). The stability of the LGMPC is proven by means of a demonstration of a theorem stating a sufficient and constructive condition. Lower bounds conditions are found for one of these matrices and then a system with saturation is taken into consideration. The conditions can…

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are considered to be the currently flourishing scientific domain, thereby found to be applicable in numerous industrial and domestic applications. As per the mathematical results in Pulse-coupled oscillator (PCO), it has been predicted that, numerous iterations are needed for convergence, leading to increased power consumption. Biologically inspired solutions are greatly applicable…

Thermo-acoustic technology is very potential to be applied to convert heat into another energy source. The complete thermoacoustic engine construction requires a resonator connected to a core where there is a heat exchanger. The thermoacoustic core has a function as an acoustic power generator while the resonator functions as a storage of acoustic power which…

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…

Anaphora resolution is one of the old problems in Natural Language Processing. It is the process of identifying the antecedent of an anaphoric expression in a natural language text. Most of the NLP applications such as text summarization, question answering, information extraction, machine translation etc. require the successful resolution of anaphors. In this paper, we…

The problem of planning and location of loading/unloading (L/U) areas attracting interest from several researchers. This is mainly because of the heterogeneity of information and the great complexity of logistics flows. Among the projects of the urban logistics in Morocco, the L/U areas represent an essential importance in the deliveries to the centers of the…

Dyslexia has a lack of ability which causes other disturbances to social-emotional development. Based on an interview with the Chair of the Indonesian Dyslexia Association, increasing self-awareness is one form of dyslexia therapy to reduce that problem. Therefore there is a need for increasing self-awareness to solve that problem, whereas such technology the closest has…

Short-term load forecasting (STLF) plays an important role in building business strategies, ensuring reliability and safe operation for any electrical system. There are many different methods, including: regression models, time series, neural networks, expert systems, fuzzy logic, machine learning and statistical algorithms used for short-term forecasts. However, the practical requirement is how to minimize the…

In this work of technological development and research is presented the work done in the ITSAO to contribute to the use of clean energy such as photovoltaics and the implementation of activities to reduce electricity consumption by the technological community, the monitoring of electricity consumption is made on a monthly basis and an annual report…

Manufacturing System (MS) sizing is a crucial task to complete in order to obtain the desired MS performance and efficiency. It involves selecting the required number of resources from each used type in a given planning horizon. In fact, different approaches coupling simulation/optimization tools have been developed to solve this issue and evaluate the MS…

This paper presents a solution for question answering system for Vietnamese language by integrating diacritics restoration and question classification via deep learning approach. It could be said that this will be the first research integrating two phases into Vietnamese question answering system. Question classification has a critical role in the question answering system. However if…

Data mining is recognized as an effective technique for extracting and retrieving valuable information or decision from the vast available data. Because of the nature of the functionality of medical centers and hospitals, their data centers contain a collection of valuable information about their patients. By properly processing these data, different applications can be developed…

Trade credit is an important cost reduction tool in the inventory management. The effect of trade credit is studied on the integrated system for sharing the cost benefits realized due to the permissible delay. Credit term factor is introduced to divide the cost benefits between the retailer and the supplier. The various costs in the…

The most important biological factors, mainly determining the economic efficiency of milk production, are the productivity potential and the level of viability of cows. The aim of the work is to predict the bio-economic effects in a heterogeneous population of dairy cows taking into account the decrease in the length of productive life with increase…

This paper considers active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) as a new control approach for pH neutralization process. The pH process is challenging to control due to its sensitivity to disturbance, nonlinear dynamics, and time-varying characteristics. Special attention is paid to the impact of disturbances typically exists in the chemical process. First, the pH neutralization process…

3D-printing technologies have greatly influenced the field of fabrication of medical devices. In particular, Fused Deposition Modeling 3D printing has emerged as one the most popular and most promising technologies for fabricating upper-limb prostheses. Over the last years, a variety of types and designs of 3D-printed hand prostheses have been created and are commercially available.…

We present findings on classifying the class of executable code using convolutional, re- current neural networks by creating images from only the .text section of executables and dividing them into standard-size windows, using minimal preprocessing. We achieve up to 98.24% testing accuracy on classifying 9 types of malware, and 99.50% testing accuracy on classifying malicious…

In this paper, we present a new Somewhat Homomorphic Encryption (SHE) scheme using computation over complex numbers. We then use Bootstrapping technique to make the scheme Fully Homomorphic (FH) and supports unbounded number of circuit depth. In addition to its homomorphic properties and security level, a main characteristic of the proposed new scheme is its…

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…

All forms of skin cancer are becoming widespread. These forms of cancer, and melanoma in particular, are insidious and aggressive and if not treated promptly can be lethal to humans. Effective treatment of skin lesions depends strongly on the timeliness of the diagnosis: for this reason, artificial vision systems are required to play a crucial…

The importance of programming skills has increased with advances in information and communication technology (ICT). However, the difficulty of learning programming is a major problem for novices.
