This paper proposes a cuckoo search based hybrid model i.e. Functional Link Neural Fuzzy Network named as CSFLNFN for classification of multi-class datasets. Both FLANN, as an efficient computational technique and fuzzy logic, as a basis of much inference system are combined to take the advantages from both the techniques. These two techniques are supplementary to each other in a way that one is helping other to overcome their limitations. The proposed CSFLNFN model uses FLANN to the consequent part of the fuzzy rules. The parameters of the models are optimized by the evolutionary algorithm, Cuckoo Search (CS). The CSFLNFN model is evaluated with one medical dataset, dermatology and three other frequently used multi-class datasets, wine, glass and iris. Further, to get more classification accuracy, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been used to extract the features from the datasets. Performance of the model is measured by number of measures like confusion matrix, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F-score, gmean and area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. In this study, a comparison has been made between results before and after features extraction and it is seen that the classification accuracy increases with extracted features from the datasets. However the results demonstrate the superiority of the CSFLNFN compare to other models including CSMLP, CSFLANN, Naïve Bayesian and K-Nearest Neighbor irrespective of the feature extraction.","PeriodicalId":253244,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Power, Communication and Information Technology Conference (PCITC)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127811772","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 deal with such images, the notion of adaptive windowing has been employed using the notion of window growing. The windows have been fixed based on the entropy measure. Each window is segmented based on the proposed nonhomogeneous and heterogeneous granular computing. The results obtained by the heterogeneous and nonhomogeneous granule based scheme have been compared with homogeneous granular based scheme and Otsu's method.

NLM algorithm has been extensively researched due to its effectiveness and simplicity. In conventional NLM algorithm, the size of the search window is kept fixed for each pixel. Ideally, the search window size must optimally vary from region to region based on the characteristics of the search region. In this paper, we propose an adaptive NLM algorithm based on classification of homogeneous and heterogeneous regions using local entropy. The proposed algorithm selects an optimal search window size for each pixel based on region characteristics. The experimental results have shown that the proposed algorithm performs consistently better than the conventional NLM in terms of PSNR and visual quality for denoising the images at various noise levels.","PeriodicalId":253244,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Power, Communication and Information Technology Conference (PCITC)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123769621","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 proposed control strategy attempts a dual purpose of maximum power extraction from the wind turbine and an optimal efficiency of the induction generator. This combination of the controller strategy results in increasing the overall efficiency. Here the configuration helps to exploit the low wind speed region, with the system comprising of HAWT and SCIG. A maximum power extraction (MPE) controller is used to extract the maximum wind turbine output power and Loss Minimization (LM) controller is introduced to minimize the generator electric loss. The input to both optimal controllers is the differential speed available due to the gears at generator unit. The switching scheme used is space vector modulation devoid of the wind speed measurement, unlike its dependence in other algorithms. The controllers determine the optimal d-axis and q-axis stator current components of the induction generator through optimal conditions and, thus fast dynamic response of the WECS is achieved. The entire proposed system is modeled and simulated using power system Simulink blocks in MATLAB R2013a to obtain the desired results. The studies have been carried out to confirm the effectiveness and the operational improvements. This system of dual controller can be implemented in a real world WECS system.","PeriodicalId":253244,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Power, Communication and Information Technology Conference (PCITC)","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133964254","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 localisation architecture deals in designing localisation service through WSN where sensor nodes are mobile in a cluster environment. The wireless sensor applications, significantly need reliable and robust information of the physical location of the nodes in the network.
