With the spread of inverters, the attention of designers naturally turned to 5-phase motors, due to their advantageous properties. In this regard, perhaps the most important issue in the design of such machines is the selection of the correct rotor slot number. Many articles have been published on multiphase machines, however, only few of them…

Text line segmentation from document images is a significant challenge in the field of document image analysis. It involves extracting individual text lines from Myanmar handwritten document images to enable text recognition. This task becomes particularly challenging in Myanmar handwritten documents, especially those with irregular or cursive writing styles, due to variations in line spacing,…

Despite the development of the Internet and wired networks such as fiber optics, mobile networks remain the most used thanks to the mobility they offer to the user. However, data protection in these networks is more complex because of the radio channels they use for transmission. Hence,there is a need to find more sophisticated data…

Skewing of the rotor slot of a squirrel-cage induction machine has been commonly used since the beginning. However, little guidance is given regarding the principle of the working effect of the method, but even in such rare cases, the explanation does not cover the true physical reality. Consequently no formula exists for calculation of the…

The rapid expansion of digital universities across Africa addresses the need for scalable higher education solutions, but challenges such as limited physical infrastructure and high dropout rates persist.

This article explores the transformative role of chatbots integrated into digital university platforms,…

Extemporaneous omeprazole-based preparations are commonly used in hospitals; however, there are no validated studies about physicochemical stability. This study aimed to determine if temperature, luminosity, and the type of diluent affect the stability of omeprazole in the extemporaneous preparation. For stability, the methodology validated previously by our group was used. The 2k experimental design included…

A lightning detection system based on a large-diameter Rogowski coil and an analog integrator was developed for wind turbine applications and is presented in this paper. To accurately detect lightning current, the Rogowski coil was designed with a lower cutoff frequency of 0.1 Hz. The analog integrator, comprising an inverting active integrator, and an amplifier,…

True Random Number Generators (TRNG) find applications in various fields, especially hardware security. We suggest a TRNG that exploits the intrinsic static stochasticity of Resistive Switching Random Access Memories (ReRAMs) to generate random bits. Other suggested designs use stochasticity in the switching mechanism, which requires high precision over input voltage and time. In the proposed…

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) prove to be susceptible to synthetically generated samples, so-called adversarial examples. Such adversarial examples aim at generating misclassifications by specifically optimizing input data for a matching perturbation. With the increasing use of deep learning on embedded devices and the resulting use of quantization techniques to compress deep neural networks, it is…

This study proposes the Value Karuta (VK), an application of the traditional Japanese card game karuta. Its goal is to contribute to the understanding of value, which is the first principle of lean management. After stating the problems of lean management and the specifications of VK, this paper confirms the validity of the proposal by…

As society ages, the imbalance between family caregivers and elderly individuals increases, leading to inadequate support for seniors in many regions. This situation has ignited interest in automatic health monitoring systems, particularly in fall detection, due to the significant health risks that falls pose to older adults. This research presents a vision-based fall detection system…

In recent years, the utilization of tangible educational materials has attracted attention on educational settings. They provide hands-on learning experiences for beginners. This trend is especially notable in the field of programming education. Such educational materials are employed in many institutions worldwide. They liberate learners of programming from programming languages that are confined in a…

Insufficient information is often pointed out as one of the main problems with bug reports as most bugs are reported manually, they lack detailed information describing steps to reproduce the unexpected behavior, leading to increased time and effort for developers to reproduce and fix bugs. Current bug reporting systems lack support for self-hosted systems that…
