Abstract The uncertainty of distributed generation energy has dramatically challenged the coordinated development of distribution networks at all levels. This paper focuses on the multi-time-scale regulation model of distributed generation energy under normal conditions. The simulation results of the example verify the self-optimization characteristics and the effectiveness of real-time dispatching of the distribution network control technology at all levels under multiple time scales.

Abstract Every year, the number of women affected by breast tumors is increasing worldwide. Hence, detecting and segmenting the cancer regions in mammogram images is important to prevent death in women patients due to breast cancer. The conventional methods obtained low sensitivity and specificity with cancer region segmentation accuracy. The high-resolution standard mammogram images were supported by conventional methods as one of the main drawbacks. The conventional methods mostly segmented the cancer regions in mammogram images concerning their exterior pixel boundaries. These drawbacks are resolved by the proposed cancer region detection methods stated in this paper. The mammogram images are classified… More >

Abstract Object detection in images has been identified as a critical area of research in computer vision image processing. Research has developed several novel methods for determining an object’s location and category from an image. However, there is still room for improvement in terms of detection efficiency. This study aims to develop a technique for detecting objects in images. To enhance overall detection performance, we considered object detection a two-fold problem, including localization and classification. The proposed method generates class-independent, high-quality, and precise proposals using an agglomerative clustering technique. We then combine these proposals with the relevant input image to train… More >

Abstract Image captioning involves two different major modalities (image and sentence) that convert a given image into a language that adheres to visual semantics. Almost all methods first extract image features to reduce the difficulty of visual semantic embedding and then use the caption model to generate fluent sentences. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is often used to extract image features in image captioning, and the use of object detection networks to extract region features has achieved great success. However, the region features retrieved by this method are object-level and do not pay attention to fine-grained details because of the detection… More >

Abstract Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) routing problems are thoroughly studied several approaches are identified in support of MANET. Improve the Quality of Service (QoS) performance of MANET is achieving higher performance. To reduce this drawback, this paper proposes a new secure routing algorithm based on real-time partial ME (Mobility, energy) approximation. The routing method RRME (Real-time Regional Mobility Energy) divides the whole network into several parts, and each node’s various characteristics like mobility and energy are randomly selected neighbors accordingly. It is done in the path discovery phase, estimated to identify and remove malicious nodes. In addition, Trusted Forwarding Factor (TFF)… More >

Abstract With increasing renewable energy utilization, the industry needs an accurate tool to select and size renewable energy equipment and evaluate the corresponding renewable energy plans. This study aims to bring new insights into sustainable and energy-efficient urban planning by developing a practical method for optimizing the production of renewable energy and carbon emission in urban areas. First, we provide a detailed formulation to calculate the renewable energy demand based on total energy demand. Second, we construct a dual-objective optimization model that represents the life cycle cost and carbon emission of renewable energy systems, after which we apply the differential evolution… More >

Abstract The image emotion classification task aims to use the model to automatically predict the emotional response of people when they see the image. Studies have shown that certain local regions are more likely to inspire an emotional response than the whole image. However, existing methods perform poorly in predicting the details of emotional regions and are prone to overfitting during training due to the small size of the dataset. Therefore, this study proposes an image emotion classification network based on multilayer attentional interaction and adaptive feature aggregation. To perform more accurate emotional region prediction, this study designs a multilayer attentional… More >

Abstract The random-value impulse noise (RVIN) detection approach in image denoising, which is dependent on manually defined detection thresholds or local window information, does not have strong generalization performance and cannot successfully cope with damaged pictures with high noise levels. The fusion of the K-means clustering approach in the noise detection stage is reviewed in this research, and the internal relationship between the flat region and the detail area of the damaged picture is thoroughly explored to suggest an unique two-stage method for gray image denoising. Based on the concept of pixel clustering and grouping, all pixels in the damaged picture… More >

Abstract Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, have drawn significant consideration thanks to their agility, mobility, and flexibility features. They play a crucial role in modern reconnaissance, inspection, intelligence, and surveillance missions. Coverage path planning (CPP) which is one of the crucial aspects that determines an intelligent system’s quality seeks an optimal trajectory to fully cover the region of interest (ROI). However, the flight time of the UAV is limited due to a battery limitation and may not cover the whole region, especially in large region. Therefore, energy consumption is one of the most challenging issues that need to… More >
