In order to maximize the decision-maker’s satisfaction, this paper proposes a Single-valued Neutrosophic Geometric Programming model based on pentagonal fuzzy numbers. The decision-maker is typically assumed to be certain of the parameters, but in reality, this is not the case, hence the parameters are presented as neutrosophic fuzzy values. The decision-maker, with this strategy, is able to achieve varying levels of satisfaction and dissatisfaction for each constraint and even complete satisfaction for certain constraints. Here the decision maker aims to achieve the maximum level of satisfaction while maintaining the level of hesitation and minimizing dissatisfaction in order to retain an optimum solution. Furthermore, transforming the objective function into a constraint adds one more layer to the Ndimensional multi-parametrizes and . The advantages of this multi-parametrized proposed method over the existing ones are proven using numerical examples.

Trust models evaluate messages to assign reward or punishment. This can be used to influence a driver’s future behaviour. In the author’s previous work, a sender-side based trust management framework is developed which avoids the receiver evaluation of messages. However, this does not guarantee that a trusted driver will not lie. These “untrue attacks” are resolved by the RSUs using collaboration to rule on a dispute, providing a fixed amount of reward and punishment. The lack of sophistication is addressed in this paper with a novel fuzzy RSU controller considering the severity of incident, driver past behaviour, and RSU confidence to determine the reward or punishment for the conflicted drivers. Although any driver can lie in any situation, it is expected that trustworthy drivers are more likely to remain so, and vice versa. This behaviour is captured in a Markov chain model for sender and reporter drivers where their lying characteristics depend on trust score and trust state. Each trust state defines the driver’s likelihood of lying using different probability distribution. An extensive simulation is performed to evaluate the performance of the fuzzy assessment and examine the Markov chain driver behaviour model with changing the initial trust score of all or some drivers in Veins simulator. The fuzzy and the fixed RSU assessment schemes are compared, and the result shows that the fuzzy scheme can encourage drivers to improve their behaviour.","PeriodicalId":13824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86952175","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}

Customers' preferences and choices are influenced by the opinions of others online; on blogs or social networks. New customers are faced with many views on the web, but they can't make the right decision. Hence, the need for sentiment analysis is to clarify whether opinions are positive, negative or neutral. This paper suggests using the Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis approach on reviews extracted from tourism websites such as TripAdvisor and Booking. This approach is based on two main steps namely aspect extraction and sentiment classification related to each aspect. For aspect extraction, an approach based on topic modeling is proposed using the semi-supervised CorEx (Correlation Explanation) method for labeling word sequences into entities. As for sentiment classification, various supervised machine learning techniques are used to associate a sentiment (positive, negative or neutral) to a given aspect expression. Experiments on opinion corpora have shown very encouraging performances.","PeriodicalId":13824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81957990","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}

Iris recognition stands out as one of the most accurate biometric methods in use today. Iris recognition is done through different edge detection methods. Therefore, it is important to have an understanding of the different edge detection methods that are in use these days. Specifically, the biomedical research shows that irises are as different as fingerprints or the other patterns of the recognition. Furthermore, because the iris is a visible organism, its exterior look can be examined remotely using a machine vision system. The main part of this paper delves into concerns concerning the selection of the best results giving method of the recognition. In this paper, three edge detection methods, namely Canny, Sobel and Prewitt, are applied to the image of eye (iris) and their comparative analysis is discussed. These methods are applied using the Software MATLAB. The datasets used for this purpose are CASIA and MMU. The results indicate that the performance of Canny edge detection method is best as compared to Sobel and Prewitt. Image quality is a key requirement in image-based object recognition. This paper provides the quality evaluation of the images using different metrics like PSNR, SNR, MSE and SSIM.

In addition, due to its proximity to the user, fog computing proves to be highly efficient in minimizing the volume of data that needs to be transmitted, reducing overall network traffic, and shortening the distance that data must travel. But this technology, like other new technologies, has challenges, and scheduling and optimal allocation of resources is one of the most important of these challenges. Accordingly, this research aims to propose an optimal solution for efficient scheduling within the fog computing environment through the application of the advanced cat swarm optimization algorithm. In this solution, the two main behaviors of cats are implemented in the form of seek and tracking states. Accordingly, processing nodes are periodically examined and categorized based on the number of available resources; servers with highly available resources are prioritized in the scheduling process for efficient scheduling. Subsequently, the congested servers, which may be experiencing various issues, are migrated to alternative servers with ample resources using the virtual machine live migration technique. Ultimately, the effectiveness of the proposed solution is assessed using the iFogSim simulator, demonstrating notable reductions in execution time and energy consumption. So, the proposed solution has led to a 20% reduction in execution time while also improving energy efficiency by more than 15% on average. This optimization represents a trade-off between improving performance and reducing resource consumption.","PeriodicalId":13824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85316991","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}

This is partly attributed to the traditional methods employed in shrimp farms. Consequently, a prototype has been developed for monitoring and controlling abiotic factors using IoT technology. The proposed system consists of three nodes communicating through the LoRa interface. For control purposes, a fuzzy logic system has been implemented that evaluates temperature and dissolved oxygen abiotic factors to determine the state of the aerator, updating the information in the ThingSpeak application. A detailed analysis of equipment energy consumption and the maximum communication range for message transmission and reception was conducted. Subsequently, the monitoring and control system underwent comprehensive testing, including communication with the visualization platform. The results demonstrated significant improvements in system performance. By modifying parameters in the microcontroller, a 2.55-fold increase in battery durability was achieved. The implemented fuzzy logic system enabled effective on/off control of the aerators, showing a corrective trend in response to variations in the analyzed abiotic parameters. The robustness of the LoRa communication interface was evident in urban environments, achieving a distance of up to 1 km without line of sight.","PeriodicalId":13824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90538665","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}
