Abstract Accounting Information System (AIS), which is the foundation of any enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, is often built as centralized system. The technologies that allow the Internet-of-Value, which is built on five aspects that are network, algorithms, distributed ledger, transfers, and assets, are based on blockchain. Cryptography and consensus protocols boost the blockchain platform implementation, acting as a deterrent to cyber-attacks and hacks. Blockchain platforms foster innovation among supply chain participants, resulting in ecosystem development. Traditional business processes have been severely disrupted by blockchains since apps and transactions that previously required centralized structures or trusted… More >

Abstract The exponential pace of the spread of the digital world has served as one of the assisting forces to generate an enormous amount of information flowing over the network. The data will always remain under the threat of technological suffering where intruders and hackers consistently try to breach the security systems by gaining personal information insights. In this paper, the authors proposed the HDTbNB (Hybrid Decision Tree-based Naïve Bayes) algorithm to find the essential features without data scaling to maximize the model’s performance by reducing the false alarm rate and training period to reduce zero More >

Abstract Abnormal behavior detection is challenging and one of the growing research areas in computer vision. The main aim of this research work is to focus on panic and escape behavior detections that occur during unexpected/uncertain events. In this work, Pyramidal Lucas Kanade algorithm is optimized using EMEHOs to achieve the objective. First stage, OPLKT-EMEHOs algorithm is used to generate the optical flow from MIIs. Second stage, the MIIs optical flow is applied as input to 3 layer CNN for detect the abnormal crowd behavior. University of Minnesota (UMN) dataset is used to evaluate the proposed More >

Abstract Recognizing irregular text in natural images is a challenging task in computer vision. The existing approaches still face difficulties in recognizing irregular text because of its diverse shapes. In this paper, we propose a simple yet powerful irregular text recognition framework based on an encoder-decoder architecture. The proposed framework is divided into four main modules. Firstly, in the image transformation module, a Thin Plate Spline (TPS) transformation is employed to transform the irregular text image into a readable text image. Secondly, we propose a novel Spatial Attention Module (SAM) to compel the model to concentrate… More >

Abstract Environmental pollution has had substantial impacts on human life, and trash is one of the main sources of such pollution in most countries. Trash classification from a collection of trash images can limit the overloading of garbage disposal systems and efficiently promote recycling activities; thus, development of such a classification system is topical and urgent. This paper proposed an effective trash classification system that relies on a classification module embedded in a hard-ware setup to classify trash in real time. An image dataset is first augmented to enhance the images before classifying them as either… More >

Abstract An automated retinal disease detection system has long been in existence and it provides a safe, no-contact and cost-effective solution for detecting this disease. This paper presents a game theory-based dynamic weighted ensemble of a feature extraction-based machine learning model and a deep transfer learning model for automatic retinal disease detection. The feature extraction-based machine learning model uses Gaussian kernel-based fuzzy rough sets for reduction of features, and XGBoost classifier for the classification. The transfer learning model uses VGG16 or ResNet50 or Inception-ResNet-v2. A novel ensemble classifier based on the game theory approach is proposed More >

Abstract The public is increasingly using social media platforms such as Twitter and Facebook to express their views on a variety of topics. As a result, social media has emerged as the most effective and largest open source for obtaining public opinion. Single node computational methods are inefficient for sentiment analysis on such large datasets. Supercomputers or parallel or distributed processing are two options for dealing with such large amounts of data. Most parallel programming frameworks, such as MPI (Message Processing Interface), are difficult to use and scale in environments where supercomputers are expensive. Using the… More >

Abstract Diabetic Retinopathy is a disease, which happens due to abnormal growth of blood vessels that causes spots on the vision and vision loss. Various techniques are applied to identify the disease in the early stage with different methods and parameters. Machine Learning (ML) techniques are used for analyzing the images and finding out the location of the disease. The restriction of the ML is a dataset size, which is used for model evaluation. This problem has been overcome by using an augmentation method by generating larger datasets with multidimensional features. Existing models are using only More >

Abstract Imagery assessment is an efficient method for detecting craniofacial anomalies. A cephalometric landmark matching approach may help in orthodontic diagnosis, craniofacial growth assessment and treatment planning. Automatic landmark matching and anomalies detection helps face the manual labelling limitations and optimize preoperative planning of maxillofacial surgery. The aim of this study was to develop an accurate Cephalometric Landmark Matching method as well as an automatic system for anatomical anomalies classification. First, the Active Appearance Model (AAM) was used for the matching process. This process was achieved by the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm enriched with proximity… More >

Abstract Any nonlinear behavior of the system is analyzed by a useful way of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) technique. Reduced THD achieves lower peak current, higher efficiency and longer equipment life span. Simulated annealing (SA) is applied due to the effectiveness of locating solutions that are close to ideal and to challenge large-scale combinatorial optimization for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM). The parameters of direct torque controllers (DTC) for the drive are automatically adjusted by the optimization algorithm. Advantages of the PI-Fuzzy-SA algorithm are retained when used together. It also improves the rate of system convergence. More >
