Abstract This paper presents a new capacity planning method that utilizes the complementary characteristics of wind and solar power output. It addresses the limitations of relying on a single metric for a comprehensive assessment of complementarity. To enable more accurate predictions of the optimal wind-solar ratio, a comprehensive complementarity rate is proposed, which allows for the optimization of wind-solar capacity based on this measure. Initially, the Clayton Copula function is employed to create a joint probability distribution model for wind and solar power, enabling the calculation of the comprehensive complementarity rate. Following this, a joint planning… More >

Abstract Predictive maintenance plays a crucial role in preventing equipment failures and minimizing operational downtime in modern industries. However, traditional predictive maintenance methods often face challenges in adapting to diverse industrial environments and ensuring the transparency and fairness of their predictions. This paper presents a novel predictive maintenance framework that integrates deep learning and optimization techniques while addressing key ethical considerations, such as transparency, fairness, and explainability, in artificial intelligence driven decision-making. The framework employs an Autoencoder for feature reduction, a Convolutional Neural Network for pattern recognition, and a Long Short-Term Memory network for temporal analysis.… More >

Abstract For optimization algorithms, the most important consideration is their global optimization performance. Our research is conducted with the hope that the algorithm can robustly find the optimal solution to the target problem at a lower computational cost or faster speed. For stochastic optimization algorithms based on population search methods, the search speed and solution quality are always contradictory. Suppose that the random range of the group search is larger; in that case, the probability of the algorithm converging to the global optimal solution is also greater, but the search speed will inevitably slow. The smaller… More >

Abstract The implementation of Countermeasure Techniques (CTs) in the context of Network-On-Chip (NoC) based Multiprocessor System-On-Chip (MPSoC) routers against the Flooding Denial-of-Service Attack (F-DoSA) falls under Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) due to the three main concerns, called: traffic variations, multiple evaluation criteria-based traffic features, and prioritization NoC routers as an alternative. In this study, we propose a comprehensive evaluation of various NoC traffic features to identify the most efficient routers under the F-DoSA scenarios. Consequently, an MCDM approach is essential to address these emerging challenges. While the recent MCDM approach has some issues, such as uncertainty, this… More >

Abstract Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) has been utilized as a useful tool for solving intricate optimization problems for various applications in different fields. This paper attempts to carry out an update on PSO and gives a review of its recent developments and applications, but also provides arguments for its efficacy in resolving optimization problems in comparison with other algorithms. Covering six strategic areas, which include Data Mining, Machine Learning, Engineering Design, Energy Systems, Healthcare, and Robotics, the study demonstrates the versatility and effectiveness of the PSO. Experimental results are, however, used to show the strong and More >

Abstract Prediction of stability in SG (Smart Grid) is essential in maintaining consistency and reliability of power supply in grid infrastructure. Analyzing the fluctuations in power generation and consumption patterns of smart cities assists in effectively managing continuous power supply in the grid. It also possesses a better impact on averting overloading and permitting effective energy storage. Even though many traditional techniques have predicted the consumption rate for preserving stability, enhancement is required in prediction measures with minimized loss. To overcome the complications in existing studies, this paper intends to predict stability from the smart grid… More >

Abstract Schizophrenia is a severe mental illness responsible for many of the world’s disabilities. It significantly impacts human society; thus, rapid, and efficient identification is required. This research aims to diagnose schizophrenia directly from a high-resolution camera, which can capture the subtle micro facial expressions that are difficult to spot with the help of the naked eye. In a clinical study by a team of experts at Bahawal Victoria Hospital (BVH), Bahawalpur, Pakistan, there were 300 people with schizophrenia and 299 healthy subjects. Videos of these participants have been captured and converted into their frames using… More >
