In this work we propose an algorithm for Peruvian counterfeit banknotes detection. Our algorithm operates in banknotes with 50, 100 and 200 soles denominations that were manufactured from 2009 onwards. This algorithm offers an automatic diagnosis based on digital image processing and support vector machines (SVM). Current Peruvian counterfeit detection systems are specially designed to…

The use of heuristic methods in teaching is not possible without the cooperation of all or part of the students’ academic group. That is, the teacher who made the decision to apply the heuristic method de facto solves the issues of organizing project method in teaching. There are a large number of indications on the…

This article proposes a compact and simple design of electronically adjustable voltage-mode biquadratic filter using fundamental active cell implemented on a single integrated circuit (IC) package as LT1228. The proposed circuit having triple inputs and single output (TISO) employs namely one resistor and two capacitors as the passive components. All the five possible biquadratic filtering…

To capture the perception and understanding of the concept of sustainability of a Heritage Village, a mixed-methods approach was conducted by the researcher where document where…

The article presents some results of the research of the LoRa module. These modules can be the basis of possible IoT technologies are implementing, providing enough good range of receiving and transmitting messages. The SX1276 transceiver has been testing to determine the signal loss in the propagation channel. These experiments took in a highly-populated Kyiv…

Nowadays, the Internet has become an indispensable tool for the realization and continuity of activity at a different time, place, and technological context (e.g., mobile, pc, tablet), so that interaction techniques through the use of multi-device support have become of great interest. From this perspective, continuity in interactions is an essential concept in the face…

Nowadays almost every PLC manufacturer offer a so-called safety PLC. It is a specific category of PLC, which in recent years have become a commonly used means of performing safety functions, especially in industrial applications. In this area of specific applications, a maximum of SIL 3 is normally required. However, the guaranteed safety features of…

In this paper, we have modeled and designed a metal mountable tag antenna that is applied to cover two major UHF RFID bands, i.e., European (EU) (865-867 MHz) and U.S. bands (902-928 MHz). It is applied for many applications, especially in the transport and logistics fields. The tag antenna configuration utilizes microstrip configuration with open…

This article copes with the formal verification of properties of the missions building module of PILOT’s software. PILOT is a language dedicated to remote control of robots. An incremental syntax-oriented editor was built in order to increase the dependability of PILOT’s missions and we showed that, under a maximum size of plan, this editor allows…

The objective of this article is to determine if the self-perception of professional competences has been affected, in systems engineering students, during the health emergency declared in Peru by Covid-19; The results will allow the public university of Peru to make corrective decisions and formulate proposals to improve the functioning of the variable under study.…

Online fashion market is constantly growing, and an algorithm capable of identifying garments can help companies in the clothing sales sector to understand the profile of potential buyers and focus on sales targeting specific niches, as well as developing campaigns based on the taste of customers and improve user experience. Artificial Intelligence approaches able to…

This manuscript exhibits a perfect design for a flexible number of modified DC nanogrids within an open energy distribution network (OEDN) that interconnected via a DC bus. Each modified nanogrid implies a single-input multi-output switched boost inverter (SIMO-SBI). The DC-output for each inverter is robustly controlled to keep the DC-bus interconnected voltage constant. The proposed…

Modern power systems are topologically and structurally complicated due to their complex interconnections. Consequently, the complexity of the dynamic stability assessment be-comes more tedious, most especially, when considering a power electronics-based power system operating under faulty conditions. This paper, therefore suggests an alternative approach of Network Structural-Based Technique (NSBT) for the analysis and enhancement of…

Hearing impairments have a negative impact in the lives of individuals living with them and those around such individuals. Different applications and technological tools have been developed to help reduce this negative impact. Most mobile applications that have been developed that use Speech-to-Text technology have been inconsistent such that they are not inclusive of all…

The article investigated the banking determinants of loans’ growth using the quarterly data of Albanian banking sector during 2003-2018. We estimated the linear model of control variables to examine the bank’s sound effects on loan’s capacity. Empirical results demonstrated the initial positive outcome of the growth of non – performing loans on the loans’ growth,…
