In an intelligent transportation system (ITS), time is a big challenge since processing a huge amount of data in a short time is very difficult, especially when the processed data is heterogeneous, consisting of a mixture of emergency data, normal data, and noise. In an ITS, an ambulance is one of the priority vehicles, and…

The current online shopping system does not provide the actual shopping experience to the users where they scroll through the web pages and select an item to purchase, which becomes monotonous soon and lacks the shopping experience. This paper describes the development of the SmartMart, a 3D shopping mart where the user can navigate around…

There is currently an overload of information on the internet, and this makes information search a challenging task. Researchers spend a lot of man-hour searching for journals related to their areas of research interest that can publish their research output on time. In, this study, a recommender system that can assist researchers access relevant journals…

Forecasting the occurrence and development of thunderstorms near insured mobile objects, such as aircraft carriers, oil tankers, requires the usage of appropriate single-point monitoring systems (SPMS) of thunderstorm activity. These systems must be small and included in the equipment of the objects. A SPMS based on EH location finder meets the requirements of small dimensions.…

This paper presents the results of the research conducted with the help of cognitive cybernetics about the “mass” factor from the theory of totalitarianism. According to the expert system model, “big data” analysis sought to discover knowledge for assessing the future status of digital social connectivity. Originally developed models and methods of cognitive and computer…

Dithering or error diffusion is a technique used to obtain a binary image, suitable for printing, from a grayscale one. At each step, the algorithm computes an allowed value of a pixel from a grayscale one, applying a threshold and, therefore, causing a conversion error. To obtain the optical illusion of a continuous tone, the…

The paper addresses speeding up meetings in a networked environment during rescue works in a transport emergency. Several groups of representatives of various services and observers participate in those meetings. The number of wrong decisions tends to increase because remote participants cannot understand each other quickly. First, the meetings must be efficiently held to avoid…

Feature selection method applied on an intrusion dataset is used to classify the intrusion data as normal or intrusive. We have made an attempt to detect and classify the intrusion data using rank-based feature selection classifiers. A set of redundant features having null rank value are eliminated then the performance evaluation using various feature selection…

Text classification is considered one of the most fundamental and essential problems that deal with automatically classifying textual resources into pre-defined categories. Numerous algorithms, datasets, and evaluation measurements have been proposed to address the task. Within the era of information redundancy, it is challenging and time-consuming to engineering a sizable amount of data in multi-languages…

Currently, increasing penetration of the Wind Energy Conversion System (WECs) in Power generation systems has influenced the supply of electrical power reliability for the consumer in comparison with other traditional sources.
