Since these electronics are dependent on electricity, the impact of these sectors on the environment is also deteriorating and it becomes important to take remedial action. For this, various websites and mobile applications have emerged that provide information to household users on energy consumption of devices and as well as reduction mechanisms. However, since these platforms are limited in various ways in their endeavor to promote self-learning on energy consumption reduction, awareness still remains an important barrier thus giving rise to the need for further investigation on innovative technologies and platforms. Even though Near Field Communication (NFC) could potentially be used, limited work has been conducted in relation to energy consumption of consumer electronics. As such, this paper delves into the application and usability of NFC for promoting self-learning on energy consumption of household electronic appliances through an Android based application called NFC Energy Tracker (NET).","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"859 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131240844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Whilst provision of such information could greatly reduce these risks, limited personal assistants exist that could support small scale fishermen in their activities at sea with real-time details on wind speed and direction, rainfall, humidity, geographical location and distance from shore, among others. Furthermore, large scale solutions are too expensive for this category of fishermen to afford. Even though the recent emergence of the Raspberry Pi showed to significantly decrease costs of computational systems, the application of this technology to build solutions for small-scale fishermen is yet to be investigated. As such, this paper investigates the implementation and deployment of a low-cost Raspberry Pi based personal assistant for small-scale fishermen, through a proposed device named JarPi.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"91 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115828172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to address this issue, healthy eating is being recommended. However, awareness on nutritional information on fruits remain an important challenge that still needs to be addressed even though various sources in the form of books, websites and mobile applications are already available. This is also potentially due to the limited interaction and engagement with such sources. One technology that has shown to improve engagement, enhance understanding and provide a unique learning experience is Augmented Reality. However, limited work has been undertaken to provide nutritional information on fruits via this technology. As such, this paper investigates the application of AR to nutritionally augment fruits through a proposed prototype called Fruitify, before discussing the usability tests performed on the application and involving end users. As key findings, a system usability scale score of 82.1% was obtainedwhere participants expressed strong intention to utilize the tool again in the future.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129872761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the idea, no complicated circuits but only a trace in a printed circuit board is used as the generator: the trace is divided into multiple segments of different widths and lengths. Any desired output waveforms can be generated by adjusting each segment's width and length because the multiple reflection waves occur in the trace and they are superposed onto the input waveform. The adjusting, or the width-length design however comes to a combinatorial explosion problem. In order to overcome the design difficulty we use a genetic algorithm (GA) by mapping the segmentally divided transmission lines onto chromosomes in the GA, and make them learn the desired output waveform. We apply the proposed waveform generator to signal integrity improvement in high-speed interconnections, and demonstrate its remarkable efficiency using a prototype board.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121372044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main idea is to introduce a new criterion which makes possible to evaluate maximum demanded 2-norm of forces/torques of the robot actuators in the case that the end-effector of the robot is to move inside given workspace (specified by the desired positions) with required maximum acceleration in any direction. Therefore, dynamic behaviour of the robot can naturally be taken into account without the need to specify a particular motion trajectory (e.g. moving along the curve with demanded velocity/acceleration profile). Such a criterion is particularly useful in the cases where customer requirements on a new robotic architecture design are too vague and do not include a specific motion of the end-effector of the robot. The new proposed criterion is further used in a minimax discrete optimization problem. Computational effective culling algorithm is used for finding a global optimum. Finally, an illustrative example describes the optimization of the kinematic parameters of the planar parallel robot in order to minimize actuators torques.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128400232","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The probability of a system failure is then expressed in terms of the states of its components. Meanwhile, in some machine learning approaches, the probability of class membership is expressed in terms of the values (which can be seen as ‘states’) of various features (which can be seen as ‘components’). In this paper, we explore this analogy further to develop a classification algorithm in which the decision for class membership is based on specific combinations of feature states, where those combinations are inspired by reliability engineering. In essence, our classification model considers the features to be comp onents arranged in a parallel in a system, while different classes represent different system configurations. We describe the approach, present initial promising results, and speculate on further development of the approach.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121157731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alienyi","doi":"10.1109/ISCMI.2017.8279595","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ISCMI.2017.8279595","url":null,"abstract":"Data clustering has always been an important aspect of data mining. Extracting clusters from data could be very difficult especially when the features are large and the classes not clearly partitioned, hence the need for high-quality clustering techniques. The major shortcoming of various clustering techniques is that the number of clusters must be stated before the clustering starts. A recent successful work in clustering is the Clustering analysis based on Glowworm Swarm Optimization (CGSO) algorithm. CGSO uses the multimodal search capacity of the Glowworm Swarm Optimization (GSO) algorithm to automatically figure out clusters within a data set without prior knowledge about the number of clusters. However, the sensor range — one of the parameters of the CGSO algorithm and a determinant of the number of clusters as well as the cluster quality — is in fact obtained by trial and error, which is clearly an inefficient approach. Consequently, this paper proposes the Modified Clustering analysis based on Glowworm Swarm Optimization (CGSOm) algorithm. The CGSOm extends the CGSO by incorporating a mechanism that determines the sensor range efficiently and automatically, modifying the glowworm initialization method and introducing a function that measures the cluster error during the iteration phase. The proposed algorithm was tested on artificial and real-world data sets. Experimental results show that for most data sets, the proposed CGSOm algorithm gives better clustering quality results of entropy and purity values when compared with the original CGSO algorithm and four standard clustering algorithms commonly used in the literature. The results reveal that the CGSOm yields better quality clusters.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121589353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can be used to label and train automatic layout learning systems or to detect and locate the title, keywords, subheadings, paragraphs and image regions in images. This work proposes a technique to separate text regions from image documents. Images are divided into small non-overlapping windows. Textural features are extracted from these image windows before a classification is performed. Two refinement processes are carried out to reject misclassified windows, i.e window merging and Markov Random Files (MRFs). Window merging determine the similarity of a window and its neighbouring windows (based-on a distance-based technique). MRF examines the relationships between each window and it's neighbouring one using an energy minimization technique. The experimental results demonstrate that the refinement method is superior to the original classification without a refinement.","PeriodicalId":119111,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 4th International Conference on Soft Computing & Machine Intelligence (ISCMI)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131966342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
