Implementation of DR helps utility for effective load management and consumers to avail of monetary and service benefits. The important component in evaluating the success of a DR implementation program is related to the accurate estimation of the consumer baseline load (CBL). A decision about load curtailment volume and incentives offering to the consumers is decided based on the estimation of CBL. A case study is performed for a domestic feeder of 33/11 kV substation of Goa state utility based upon the load and weather data. Different methods of CBL estimation computed based on the historical data and forecasting techniques are analyzed. In this paper, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) based model is adopted for CBL estimation. From the computation of performance metrics, it is found that the proposed ANN method gives better performance in terms of higher accuracy, improved bias and variability over other estimation methods. The results obtained from ANN-based CBL estimation is used to analyze the impact of the implementation of price and incentive-based DR program on the consumer and state utility.","PeriodicalId":126759,"journal":{"name":"2020 7th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131110874","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}

Therefore primary aim of this work is to remove noise from facial images using Savitzky-Golay filter (SGF), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) and median filters. The filters are implemented on images taken from extended Cohn-Kanade (CK+) database, corrupted by various noises with varying noise levels. Results reveal the effectiveness of designed filters for AFER in terms of coefficient of correlation (COC), signal to noise ratio (SNR), mean square error (MSE), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and structure similarity (SSIM).","PeriodicalId":126759,"journal":{"name":"2020 7th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133562746","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}

We used popular deep learning models for feature extraction and a support vector machine classifier is employed to classify the EEG patterns into suitable emotion classes. The main contribution of this work is to investigate on the following points: creating an ensemble of pre-trained deep learning networks with support vector machine classifier (SVM) for classifying emotional states of person for single and multiple emotional attributes. Finding out the best ensemble network, extracting suitable layer and robust features to improve the classification accuracy of support vector machine and finally to compare the performance of ensemble of networks with stand-alone deep learning networks. Two popular convolutional neural networks are used for experiments: Alex Net and GoogLeNet. All experiments are carried out on database for emotion analysis using physiological signals (DEAP). A thorough analysis of experimental results revealed that classification accuracy of 87.5% is achieved by ensemble of Alex Net and SVM for single attribute (valance) classification while for two attributes (arousal and valance) the accuracy achieved is 62.5%. Similarly, accuracy of 100% and 62.5% are achieved for single and two attributes classification respectively using ensemble of GoogLeNet and SVM.","PeriodicalId":126759,"journal":{"name":"2020 7th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"82 14","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132802235","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}

These features of the CPU are beneficial to improve the application performance. These processors have to be modelled to arrive at the trade-offs of design decisions such as power, time, throughput and latency. Modeling these complex micro-architectures is a very challenging task. In this work, we present a simple CPU modeling technique for data-parallel applications based on minimum offline profiling information and detailed static code analysis. This model, first identifies the primitive operations of the application kernels and then, based on the available offline profiled information, it estimates the performance of the given application kernel using either a SUM model or a MAX model. Experimental results show that an average estimation error of 7.19% and 41.4% is seen across data-parallel benchmarks from the Polybench suite for large and small problem sizes respectively on a multi-core CPU architecture.","PeriodicalId":126759,"journal":{"name":"2020 7th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"4 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133076336","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 size of proposed AVA is 28.8 mm X 24 mm x 0.254 mm and it is designed by using Rogers RT5880 substrate. Initially, 1 x 4 AVA array (AVA-A) is designed with slots in between two antenna elements. This designed AVA-A operates over three frequency bands which are 24.91 GHz to 33.18 GHz, 34.95 GHz to 36.58 GHz, and 38.34 GHz to 39.38 GHz and provides gain in the range of 8.47 dB to 12.63 dB. The performance parameters of AVA-A is enhanced by incorporating corrugations in it. The AVA-A with corrugations(AVA-AC) enhances gain, bandwidth and front to back ratio of an antenna. The proposed AVA-AC provides enhanced and nearly constant gain of 8.2 dB to 13.2 dB over 24.04 GHz to 40.85 GHz frequency range which includes three bands of 5G communication spectrum (24.25 GHz to 27.5 GHz, 31.8 GHz to 33.4 GHz, and 37 GHz to 40.5 GHz).
