Hereby in this paper, we are going to refer image classification. The main issue in image classification is features extraction and image vector representation. We expose the Bag of Features method used to find image representation. Class prediction accuracy of varying classifiers algorithms is measured on Caltech 101 images. For feature extraction functions we evaluate…

Water quality assessment and prediction is a more and more important issue. Traditional ways either take lots of time or they can only do assessments. In this research, by applying machine learning algorithm to a long period time of water attributes’ data; we can generate a decision tree so that it can predict the future…

Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks (UWSNs) are extensively used to explore the diverse marine environment. Energy efficiency is one of the main concerns regarding performance of UWSNs. In a cooperative wireless sensor network, nodes with no energy are known as coverage holes. These coverage holes are created due to non-uniform energy utilization by the sensor nodes…

IEEE 802.11 WLAN indoor networks face major inherent and environmental issues such as interference, noise, and obstacles. At the same time, they must provide a maximal service performance in highly changing radio environments and conformance to various applications’ requirements. For this purpose, they require a solid design approach that considers both inputs from the radio…

This research work is novel technique to control and optimize SSSC (Subsynchronous Series Controller) functions with degree of precision in between Qatar and Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The SSSC model developed and simulated in order to identify and determine its control and functioning parameters by introducing new tuning parameters based on that the SSSC can…

Crime statistics and research on criminology show that under similar circumstances,crimes are more likely to occur in developing countries than in developed countries due to their lack ofsecurity measures. Transport crimes on highways and bridges are one of the most common crimes in the developing nations. Automation of various systems like the toll collection system…

Speaking about the commutation’s equipment, it can be said that the best solution in increasing reliability and lowering the maintenance costs is a continuous monitoring of the equipment. However, if the price/quality ratio is considered, it is obvious that, for the moment, the diagnosis can be also an acceptable solution. Nowadays the predictive maintenance for…

The increased motivation (by service providers) to offer user-centric and seamless communication services – that satisfies users’ quality of experience (QoE), has manifested a myriad of challenges in the field of wireless communication; and given the increased traffic capacity and sudden explosion of cellular devices, communication systems are constantly threatened by performance related issues –…

Technological tools such as Semantic Web and ontologies have contributed immensely to the reduction of most managerial complexities on daily basis. However, most resolved complexities are solely dependent on the emerging issues which are not general enough to accommodate some specific domain challenges. Temporal scheduling complexities occur in several domains including timetabling, but inter-departmental courses…

Interconnection of the power system utilities and grids offers a formidable dispute in front of design engineers. With the interconnections, power system has emerged as a more intricate and nonlinear system. Recent years small signal stability problems have achieved much significance along with the conventional transient constancy problems. Transient stability of the power system can…

A Linear Wireless Sensor Network (LWSN) is a kind of wireless sensor network where the nodes are deployed in a line. Since the sensor nodes are energy restricted, energy efficiency becomes one of the most significant design issues for LWSNs as well as wireless sensor networks. With the proper deployment, the power consumption could be…

The problem of multi-criteria or multi-objective intercropping crop planning makes it vital to consider all related factors under the constraints that will produce the highest revenue and minimum cost. Principles of intercropping elements including soil type, plant area, plant diseases, planting and harvesting time and economics factors (e.g. price, cost) are some of the factors…

The paper explores an issue of efficient public transportation network design as a part of the urban developing process. Having data about everyday residents travelling inside of an urban area, we can consider this data as people’s requirements for the public transport system. We propose a novel method for initial public transportation network design based…

The build-in internet-controlled functions of smart devices such as smart phone, smart television, home healthcare gadget, etc., have made them quite attractive to many segments of consumers. In recent years mankind has witnessed an upsurge usage of such devices for numerous purposes. In this paper, the author is going to show how previously forecasted security…

Study the content of images is considered an important topic in which reasonable and accurate analysis of images are generated. Recently image analysis becomes a vital field because of huge number of images transferred via transmission media in our daily life. These crowded media with images lead to highlight in research area of image analysis.…

Platelet transfusions are vital for the prevention of fatal hemorrhage. Therefore, a stable inventory of platelets is required for an efficient and effective delivery of services in all the hospitals and medical centers. However, over the past decades, the requirement for platelets seems to be continuously increasing, while the number of potential donors is decreasing.…

The analysis of human sit down position is a research area allows for preventing health physical problems in the back. Many works have proposed systems that detect the sitting position, some open issues are still to be dealt with, such as: Cost, computational load, accuracy, portability, and among others. In this work, we present an…

One of the most important roles of the wireless sensor networks (WSN) is to avoid wiring costs, be self-sustainable and be able to function for several years. However, due to the slow progress in battery technology, power continues to be a limited resource in wireless sensor communication and electric energy storage remains to be an…

Cloud computing is one of the largest emerging utility services that is expected to grow enormously over the next decade. Many organizations are moving into hybrid cloud/hosted computing models. Single cloud service provider introduces cost and environmental challenges. Also, multi-cloud solution implemented by the Cloud tenant is suboptimal as it requires expensive adaptation costs. Cloud…

Network Virtualization, which allows the co-existence of various logical networks on shared physical infrastructure, has become popular in recent years. The optimal mapping of virtual resource to physical resource is a major issue in network virtualization. This problem, called virtual network embedding (VNE), has been well explored in the context of one physical domain, which…

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is mosquito-borne, alpha virus. It causes acute fever and acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain in humans. CHIKV has spread to 22 countries including Pakistan resulting in hundreds of thousands of death across the world. International travel stands out as one of the major risk factors for rapid global spread of the disease.…

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among female diseases all over the world. Early diagnosis and treatment is particularly important in reducing the mortality rate. This research is focused on the prevention of breast cancer, therefore it is important to detect micro-calcifications (MCs) which are a sign of early stage breast cancer.…
