An intense research activity is to use the connectomes to identify markers for brain disorders, especially neuro-degenerative diseases such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) by studying the differences in the connectomes of healthy subjects and patients. This paper presents a novel data model for the connectome data and analyzes its efficacy in the classification of ASD and Typically Developing (TD) (healthy) connectomes. The proposed data modelling begins by clustering the vertices (brain regions) using the Graph Spectral Clustering into fixed number of clusters, the number of clusters chosen as four based on the empirical evidence. The resulting clustering is used to map the vertices into a binary matrix which is then converted into a binary row vector to form a vector space model of the connectome data that is employed to classify the connectome data. The developed model is first validated using Human Connectome Protocol (HCP) FMRI derived connectome data of 812 healthy patents. Binary data models of the UCLA Autism dataset with fMRI and DTI scans of 42 ASD and 37 TD subjects are generated and employed for their classification. Different classification algorithms are trained, tested and their performance evaluated using the resulting dataset. Cross Validation (CV) estimates identified the best performance (83% recall and 83% precision) for DTI data and (73% recall and 89% precision) for the fMRI data achieved using Logistic Regression.","PeriodicalId":261794,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Computing and Communication Technologies (CONECCT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129670677","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}

However, it is still a challenging task to achieve high levels of power absorption over a broad range of frequencies with minimum thickness. Advanced electromagnetic techniques like application of frequency selective surfaces (FSS) are attractive options for obtaining superior absorption characteristics at reduced thickness. However, FSS-based absorbers using patches as unit cell are usually narrowband due to resonance conditions. In this regard, the present paper proposes a novel metamaterial absorber based on Minkowski fractal patch configuration for X-band applications. Several unit cells with dimensions optimized for resonance at closely spaced frequencies have been used in a single absorber. The full wave simulation results clearly illustrate the broadening of bandwidth accomplished using dimensionally different fractals arranged appropriately on the absorber.","PeriodicalId":261794,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Electronics, Computing and Communication Technologies (CONECCT)","volume":"285 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121221062","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}

Unlike conventional designs which use two stage approach such as PFC plus a LLC resonant stage or a two stage PFC plus flyback, the proposed design integrates the PFC and constant voltage regulation in a single stage without compromising the efficiency of the converter. The proposed design is advantageous as it has a lower component count. A design of 100 W flyback operating from universal input AC line voltage is demonstrated in this paper. The experimental results show that the power factor (PF) is greater than 0.92 and total harmonic distortion (iTHD) is less than 20% for a load varying from 25 % to 100 %.
