For this specific type of brain tumors, in its beginning stages, it is extremely complex to get the exact diagnosis. Even with the works from the most experienced doctors, it will not be possible without magnetic resonance imaging, which aids to make the diagnosis of brain tumors. In order to create classification of the images, to where the class of glioma belongs to, for achieving superior performance, convolutional neural networks can be used. For achieving high-level accuracy on the image classification, the convolutional network hyperparameters’ calibrations must reach a very accurate response of high accuracy results and this task proves to take up a lot of computational time and energy. Proceeding with the proposed solution, in this scientific research paper a metaheuristic method has been proposed to automatically search and target the near-optimal values of convolutional neural network hyperparameters based on hybridized version of elephant herding optimization swarm intelligence metaheuristics. The hybridized elephant herding optimization has been incorporated for convolutional neural network hyperparameters’ tuning to develop a system for automatic and instantaneous image classification of glioma brain tumors grades from the magnetic resonance imaging. Comparative analysis was performed with other methods tested on the same problem instance an results proved superiority of approach proposed in this paper.","PeriodicalId":308106,"journal":{"name":"2021 Zooming Innovation in Consumer Technologies Conference (ZINC)","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131434516","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 approach is based on estimation of homography matrix that is used for image transformation after which nearest-neighbor interpolation is performed. The presented algorithm for image correction is implemented in TDA2xx System-On-Chip on ADAS Alpha development board.

Such sustainable mobility, includes cycling and walking, which have a positive significant impact on the fitness and health of an individual, but also contribute to a sustainable urban environment. For this purpose, a market research survey was conducted to identify the key features and functions that the smartphone app should include prior to its development.

Automated detection of failures is crucial for smart maintenance, for building AI-based factory automation. In this context, the paper describes a solution for detecting failures based on sound obtained from the target machines. Abnormal sound data is difficult to collect, as it rarely occurs and is being hard to extract from a noisy environment and could have various patterns. The proposed solution detects anomalous sound after training the machine-learning model only with the normal operating sound of machines in a factory environment.","PeriodicalId":308106,"journal":{"name":"2021 Zooming Innovation in Consumer Technologies Conference (ZINC)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129883980","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 this study, it is aimed that three different robots in a limited area learn to move without hitting each other, fixed obstacles and the boundaries of the field. These robots have been trained using the deep reinforcement learning approach and Proximal policy optimization (PPO) policy. Instead of uses value-based methods with the discrete action space, PPO that can easily manipulate the continuous action field and successfully determine the action of the robots has been proposed. PPO policy achieves successful results in multi-agent problems, especially with the use of the Actor-Critic network. In addition, information is given about environment control and learning approaches for swarm behavior. We propose parameter sharing and behavior-based method for this study. Finally, trained model is recorded and tested in 9 different environments where the obstacles are located differently.

Years back, farmers used to base themselves on their own experience to detect any issues or diseases in their farm and as such take corrective actions. Farmers having many tasks besides monitoring each and every crop can greatly benefit from IoT. Nevertheless, a shift from traditional farming to smart farming requires the use of devices such as sensors, global positioning system, internet and so on, in order to collect, process, monitor and store data. Such IoT devices being connected to the Internet is susceptible to be hacked by attackers. Thus, securing the access to the IoT module used in greenhouses is important.

Therefore, the aim of this paper is to address this challenge by designing an optimum distributed multi-agent system to perform compiler optimization. A multi-agent framework is adopted to utilize random and genetic algorithm-based search algorithm to find the best GCC optimization flags for a given program. The framework is highly scalable and can be extended with distributed system concept to perform code compilation in parallel to find the best-optimized code sequence in a short amount of time.

In this paper we present a tool AutoCheck that can check compliance to 190 rules defined by Autosar standard for C++14 language. AutoCheck is implemented as an extension of the Clang compiler and can be easily adopted as it can be invoked through simple options that are added to Clang. AutoCheck also offers additional options for controlling the generated output in a user-friendly way. We discuss development decisions that include experimental evaluation of different interfaces for static analysis offered by Clang.
