In this article, we use a machine learning approach for the Quran Reciter recognition. We use the database of Twelve Qari who recites the last Ten Surah of Quran. The twelve Qari…

The technological advance as well as needs of human beings made that systems became more and more complex. In contrast, the use and creation of new modelling languages became simple and no more reserved for a handful of language experts. Consequently, many new practices of systems implementation emerged, among them, the use of different domain…

In advanced technologies nodes, starting from 28 nm to 7 nm and below, the power consumed of integrated circuits (ICs) becomes a big concern. Consequently, actual electronic design automation (EDA) tools are facing many challenges to have low power, reduced area and keep having required performance. To reach required success criteria, and because each picosecond…

Electrical energy shortage and expensive basic electricity costs are one of the problems that are occurred in Karimunjawa Island, Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to identify the potential of ocean currents energy as one of the alternatives to reduce the problem related to energy needs and to predict the electrical energy that can…

This paper addresses the generation of stylized texts in a multilingual setup. A long short-term memory (LSTM) language model with extended phonetic and semantic embeddings is shown to capture poetic style when trained end-to-end without any expert knowledge. Phonetics seems to have a comparable contribution to the overall model performance as the information on the…

Fatigue is broadly divided into two types depending on the content of a task: physical fatigue and mental fatigue. Mental fatigue is associated with human error. It is thus important to search for indicators that can easily evaluate mental fatigue. The aim of this study is to construct a system that can evaluate mental fatigue…

Problem statement: In general, the water hyacinth is a biennial aquatic plant for many seasons with propagated quickly to become serious weeds in general water sources. The water hyacinth is caused carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as a greenhouse effect, which leads to climate change, the environmental concerns of the world today. The agricultural residue…

Person recognition using thermal imaging, multi-biometric traits, with groups of feature filters and classifiers, is the subject of this paper. These were used to tackle the problems of biometric systems, such as a change in illumination and spoof attacks. Using a combination of, hard and soft-biometric, attributes in thermal facial images. The hard-biometric trait, of…

Source parameters of tsunami waves are an essential part of any modern tsunami warning system. Recalculation of a measured time series (wave profile obtained by a seabed-based pressure sensor) in terms of initial sea surface displacement at tsunami source is among the most (or) one of the promising approaches to be applied in a warning…

Digitization forces industry players to adapt to transforming market situations and buyer behavior. Technological advances, buyer power, and sharpened competitive intensity imply that businesses are confronted with the menace of commoditization. For companies to perform successfully in the market, outdated business models ought to be rethought and new business models should be created. Unique selling…

The objective of the study was to establish the relationship between coalition and employee spiritual engagement. The research was quantitative, and data was administered and retrieved from employees at the selected private radio firms.

Transportation vendors are important for distribution companies to deliver goods or products. Operational problems of logistic process in transportation vendors’ activities are difficult to track and monitor directly in the field, such as driver’s position, the delivery, and so forth. These problems result in the difficulty to measure the performance of vendors’ activities. The aim…

The IEEE802.11n based Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) have been extensively deployed due to the flexible coverage, the easy installation, and the lower cost. To reduce the energy consumption while increasing the performance, the elastic WLAN system has been studied, such that it can dynamically change the network configuration according to traffic demands. As well,…

In the past decades, various ideas have proposed for reconductoring of overhead lines to enhance power transmission capacity considering growing energy demand. Conventional method of reconductoring is use to take couple of weeks but availability of shutdown for a prolong period is a major constraint in line uprating. Emergency restoration structure (ERS) is effective to…

In recent years, deep learning has been widely used for time series prediction. Deep learning model that is most often used for time series prediction is LSTM. LSTM is widely used because of its excellence in remembering very long sequences. However, doing training on models that use LSTM requires a long time. Trying from one…
