In this paper, the reliability level between two points in a network is defined from the point of view of minimal edge cut and path, respectively, and the equivalence of these two definitions is proven. Based on this, a multi-objective optimization model is proposed. The first goal of the model is to minimize the total service distance, and the second goal is to maximize the network reliability level. The original model is transformed into a model with three objectives, and the three objectives are combined into one objective by the method of weighting. The model is applied to a case, and the results are analyzed to verify the effectiveness of the model.","PeriodicalId":179619,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Comput. Commun.

The paper addresses the performance improvement of three Single Input-Single Output (SISO) fuzzy control systems that control separately the positions of interest of tower crane systems, namely the cart position, the arm angular position and the payload position. Three separate low-cost SISO fuzzy controllers are employed in terms of first order discrete-time intelligent Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers with Takagi-Sugeno-Kang Proportional-Derivative (PD) fuzzy terms. Iterative Learning Control (ILC) system structures with PD learning functions are involved in the current iteration SISO ILC structures. Optimization problems are defined in order to tune the parameters of the learning functions. The objective functions are defined as the sums of squared control errors, and they are solved in the iteration domain using the recent metaheuristic Slime Mould Algorithm (SMA). The experimental results prove the performance improvement of the SISO control systems after ten iterations of SMA.","PeriodicalId":179619,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Comput. Commun.

GPS utilizing Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) cannot provide an accurate positioning in the indoor due to the multipath effect and shadow fading. Fingerprinting method with Wi-Fi technology is a promising system to solve this issue. However, there are several problems with the fingerprinting method. The fingerprinting database collected has different sample sizes where the previous researcher does not indicate any standard for the sample size to be used. In this paper, the effect of the sample sizes in fingerprinting database for Wi-Fi technology has been discussed deeply. The statistical analyzation for different sample sizes has been analyzed. Furthermore, two methods which are K- Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Deep Neural Network (DNN) are being used to examine the effect of the sample sizes in term of accuracy and distance error. The discussion in this paper will contribute to the better sample size selection depending on the method taken by the user. The result shows that sample sizes are an important metrics in developing the indoor positioning system as it effects the result of the location estimation.","PeriodicalId":179619,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Machine learning has attracted extensive attention from investors in the financial market, especially in stock price prediction. However, one argument for the machine learning methods used in stock price prediction is that they are black-box models which are difficult to interpret. In this paper, we focus on the future stock price prediction with the historical stock price by machine learning and deep learning methods, such as support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), Bayesian classifier (BC), decision tree (DT), multilayer perceptron (MLP), convolutional neural network (CNN), bi-directional long-short term memory (BiLSTM), the embedded CNN, and the embedded BiLSTM. Firstly, we manually design several financial time series where the future price correlates with the historical stock prices in pre-designed modes, namely the curve-shape-feature (CSF) and the non-curve-shape-feature (NCSF) modes. In the CSF mode, the future prices can be extracted from the curve shapes of the historical stock prices. Conversely, in the NCSF mode, they can’t. Secondly, we apply various algorithms to those pre-designed and real financial time series. We find that the existing machine learning and deep learning algorithms fail in stock price prediction because in the real financial time series, less information of future prices is contained in the CSF mode, and perhaps more information is contained in the NCSF. Various machine learning and deep learning algorithms are good at handling the CSF in historical data, which are successfully applied in image recognition and natural language processing. However, they are inappropriate for stock price prediction on account of the NCSF. Therefore, accurate stock price prediction is the key to successful investment, and new machine learning algorithms handling the NCSF series are needed. \u0000","PeriodicalId":179619,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Many factors that affect online learning satisfaction have been addressed by previous studies. However, the mechanisms by which these factors are associated with online learning satisfaction are not sufficiently clear. Moreover, the difference in the antecedents of online learning satisfaction between two use contexts- Mobile context and PC context, was rarely examined. Based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) framework, we investigate the key factors (self-efficacy, social interaction, platform quality, teacher’s expertise) affecting flow and highlights its role in online learning satisfaction, which is empirically tested through an online survey of 333 online learners. Results show that self-efficacy, teacher’s expertise, platform quality, and social interaction positively affect online learning satisfaction through the mediation of flow. Use contexts not only moderate the relationship between flow and online learning satisfaction, but also between social interaction, platform quality, teacher’s expertise, and flow. These new findings expand educators with ways to increase flow, add to knowledge about the relationship between flow and online learning satisfaction and provide references for online learning platforms to enhance learners’ online learning satisfaction under multiple-version affordances.","PeriodicalId":179619,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Fifth-generation (5G) mobile communication systems, which were developed to deal with such a drastic increase in mobile traffic, aim to achieve ultra-high-speed data transmission, low latency, and the accommodation of many more connected devices compared to 4G-LTE systems. 5G communication uses high-frequency bandwidth to implement these features, which leads to an inevitable drawback of a high path loss. In order to overcome this disadvantage, small cell technology was developed, and is defined as small, low-power base stations that can extend the network coverage and solve the shadow area problem. Although small cell technology has these advantages, different problems, such as the effects of interference due to the deployment of a large number of small cells and the differences in devices accessing the network, need to be solved. To do so, it is necessary to develop an algorithm for a service method. However, general algorithms have difficulties in responding to the diverse environment of mobile communication systems, such as sudden increase in traffic in certain areas or sudden changes in the mobile population, and machine learning technology has been applied to solve this problem. This study employs a machine learning algorithm to determine small cell connections. In addition, a 5G macro system, the application of small cells, and the application of machine learning algorithms are compared to determine the performance improvement in the machine learning algorithm. Moreover, Support Vector Machine (SVM), Logistic Regression and Decision Tree algorithm are employed to show a training method that uses basic training data and a small cell on-off method, and the performance enhancement is verified based on this method.","PeriodicalId":179619,"journal":{"name":"Int.
