Different industries are getting irreparable scathed and many organizations succumbed to this havoc. There is an inevitable need to analyze different trends going on social media platforms to alleviate the fear and misconceptions among public. The research plays out a thorough investigation on the emotional directions of the Arabic public dependent on social media using Twitter platform particular. We have extracted data from Twitter from November 2020 to January 2021.There are tweets from different cities of Arab. Natural language processing NLP and Machine learning ML capabilities are used to analyze whether an opinion's sentiment is positive, negative, or neutral. This research scrapes around Arabic tweets and then after manual annotation to classify the tweets into different sentiments like negative, positive, neutral, etc. This research use TFIDF and word embedding as a feature vector and then use Long Short-Term Memory and Naïve Bayes as classification. This work using two advanced machine learning methods, present a learned long short term memory LSTM model and a Nave Bayes model on the collected tweets. In addition, compare the performance of the Nave Bayes and LSTM models. In comparison with the Naïve Bayes the LSTM model performs better with an accuracy of 99%. The work analysis helps different Government and private organizations to understand public sentiments, their behavior towards this pandemic and then act make strategic decisions accordingly. In addition, this research focuses on data visualization by displaying a sentiment plot and a word cloud.","PeriodicalId":308802,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Congress of Advanced Technology and Engineering (ICOTEN)","volume":"101 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116353080","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 because the vibration signals collected by each sensor are a mixture of vibrations produced by different components and noise. In industrial environments, the rolling element bearing is the most important components of rotating machines which requires permanent or periodic monitoring. The signal acquired from a running bearing often presents a mixture of vibrations. The analysis of these vibrations is important to achieve precise diagnosis. For this purposea method based on blind source separation (BSS) is proposed in this work. The performance of theproposed method isverified using synthetic and real vibration signals acquiredfrom an accelerometer placed on a test bench. Theobtained results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":308802,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Congress of Advanced Technology and Engineering (ICOTEN)","volume":"121 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128258993","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}

Recent examples are attacks on a Florida water plant control system and firewalls protecting several Western U.S. electricity grid operators. Techniques for rigorously analysing the cybersecurity of CPS without the risk of disrupting their operations are therefore of increasing interest to CPS operators and regulators. Meanwhile, attack graphs have long been studied by researchers as a means of analysing the cybersecurity of both information and control systems. In this paper, we present a case study on the use of attack graphs for predicting the cybersecurity of a CPS within the critical national infrastructure. It explains how the attack graph was developed and analysed using existing system documentation, computer-aided techniques and human analysis. In this case study human cyber analysts with good knowledge of the CPS considered the automated predictions of the most exploitable attack paths to be credible. This enabled a detailed and evidenced analysis of the minimum level of cyber-attacker sophistication needed to compromise the CPS. The case study has evidenced that this style of CPS analysis could be used either during system design or whilst in operational use.","PeriodicalId":308802,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Congress of Advanced Technology and Engineering (ICOTEN)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129366456","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}

Several factors play important role in estimating the energy demand of EBs, such as vehicle mass, speed profile, energy efficiency rate, and road information. In the literature, validation of the analytical energy demand model of an EB is rarely reported. Large EB mass affects energy demand efficiency, which leads to higher consumption. This paper initially provides a comprehensive review of widely used energy demand models in EB systems. Using real-world data-driven from manufacturer test reports in the USA, a simple, practical, and validated mathematical model is derived to estimate the energy demand of EBs. Furthermore, the problem of computing the energy demand when EB battery size is a decision variable is addressed. To understand the energy demand system, the impact of efficiency rate and vehicle mass on the overall demand is also investigated. The influence of energy demand on optimization systems of dynamic wireless charging planning of EBs is investigated. The results show that a higher energy demand efficiency rate leads to lower consumption, overall cost reduction, battery size decline, and shorter dynamic charging facility.","PeriodicalId":308802,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Congress of Advanced Technology and Engineering (ICOTEN)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130423352","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}
