The Hausdorff distance (HD) is defined as MAX-MIN distance between two geometric objects for measuring the dissimilarity between two objects. Because MAX-MIN distance is sensitive with the outliers, in face recognition field, average Hausdorff distance is used for measuring the dissimilarity between two sets of features. The computational complexity of HD, and also average HD,…

In their verbal interactions, humans are often afforded with language barriers and communication problems and disabilities. This problem is even more serious in the fields of education and health care for children with special needs. The use of robotic agents, notably humanoids integrated within human groups, is a very important option to face these limitations.…

The classification of static or mobile objects, from a signal or an image containing information as to their structure or their form, constitutes a constant concern of specialists in the electronic field. The remarkable progress made in past years, particularly in the development of neural networks and artificial intelligence systems, has further accentuated this trend.…

With the aim of preventing hydro-geological risks and overcoming the problems of current rain gauges, this paper proposes a low-complexity and cost-effective video rain gauge. In particular, in this paper the authors propose a new approach to rainfall classification based on image processing and video matching process employing convolutional neural networks (CNN). The system consists…

Hypertensive or high blood pressure is a medical condition that can be driven by several factors. These factors or variables are needed to build a classification model of the hypertension dataset. In the construction of classification models, class imbalance problems are often found due to oversampling. This research aims to obtain the best classification model…

Soil moisture is a fundamental factor for smart farming that is used to control the water management system. In this paper, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) small cell (UAV-SC) can provide Internet of things (IoT) as the hotspot mobility network, due to the minimum limitation energy of connected IoT. The development of ground sensor (GS)…

Communication is a bilateral process and being understood by the person you are talking to is a must. Without the ability to talk nor hear, a person would endure such handicap. Given that hearing and speech are missing, many have ventured to open new communication methods for them through sign language. This bilateral communication device…

Fundamentally, the Bidirectional DC/DC converter consists of Buck and Boost modes, which working alternately. Hence, it has two output directions: Buck mode for decreasing the voltage and Boost mode for increasing the voltage at certain levels. In this work, we applied a non-isolated topology of the Bidirectional DC/DC converter for electric vehicle, that is mini…

Malware has always been a big problem for companies, government agencies, and individuals because people still use it as a primary tool to influence networks, applications, and computer operating systems to gain unilateral benefits. Until now, malware detection with heuristic and signature-based methods are still struggling to keep up with the evolution of malware. Machine…

Many people who have no experience want to make Games. Among them are people who only like to play Games, people who want to make business through Games, and there are also people who really want to make Games. Assume making the game is very difficult and confusing, but forget the many examples that already…

This research aims to enhance the generated power of the small-scaled wind turbine using the eddy current brake system and Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) control method. We analyzed the behavior of the generated power and power factor, with and without the MPPT control which implemented by eddy current brake system. Also, the feasibility of…

Fraud calls have a serious impact on telecommunications operator revenues. Fraud detection is very important because service providers can feel a significant loss of income. We conducted a fraud research case study on one of the operators that experienced fraud in 2009 and 2018. Call Detail Record (CDR) containing records of customer conversations such as…

In the province of Lima, Peru, criminal acts are increasing every day; it is a social problem that affects many people, who often try with the life of the indignant person, becoming the greatest fear of the community. For this reason, a mobile application was designed that allows the inhabitants to report and share the…

SIARAN is application which is created by Government of South Tangerang City, Indonesia. The application is e-government services social media based. It is designed for citizens to be able to report problems that occur around South Tangerang City. The research was conducted to find out the factors that affect the intention of SIARAN’s users. The…

An extensive work has been carried out in the field of human transcribe-verification and transcribe-recognition by extensive scholars across the globe from past decades. In order to demeanour immense experiments for considering the performance of the newly intended models and to substantiate the efficacy of the proposed model which is moderately required. This paper monologue…

To have enough information on time can be helpful when companies try to reduce costs and operate more efficiently. An international company that supplies parts for the automotive industry is currently testing its new facilities in Mexico. The relocation of the raw materials and finished goods warehouses were tested using a P-Median model. The operating…

The human gut environment can contain hundreds to thousands bacterial species which are proven that they are associated with various diseases.
