The Balochi language has been spoken for a very long period. In comparison to other languages like English, Urdu, French etc. it has a research gap in Natural language processing (NLP). The next word prediction system is one of the techniques of NLP for suggesting standardization and corpus collection. This research aims to provide a next-word prediction system and a corpus with no ambiguity for the Balochi language. N-gram model for the next word prediction has been utilized, i.e. Unigram, Bigram, Trigram, Quad-gram, and so on. A trained model has been embedded in an application after being evaluated extrinsically and intrinsically. It plays a crucial role in typing through a keyboard and helps users to type faster. Additionally, it helps native users to have fewer typing errors in less time. The results of the research show that Five-gram model has the highest performance of 93% while Quad-gram model has 80% and Trigram model has 76% respectively.","PeriodicalId":32391,"journal":{"name":"Sukkur IBA Journal of Computing and Mathematical Sciences","volume":"44 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140970624","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}

One issue is the limited resources mounted onboard. Optimization has always remained a choice of developers, either hardware or software-based. Algorithm architecture co-optimization is a domain that incorporates some changes in existing algorithms besides bringing some ways to produce compact architecture. One of the methods in architecture optimization is to use short-word length-based DSP systems that use a sigma-delta modulation (SDM) approach to reduce the actual data word length from multi-bit to single-bit. SDM in the design causes the system to become compact and efficient. This paper produces algorithm architecture co-optimization for the application of adaptive noise cancellers for wireless communication. The algorithm taken is SDM-based Steepest-Descent, and its implementation is compared with the new proposed SDM-based correlation-less design. Both approaches are simulated in MATLAB, and their functional verification is carried out along with comparing some statistical parameters, including SNR, MSE, and PE. Besides, both the designs are translated on Vertex-7 FPGA to verify the less resources consumed by the proposed method. The MATLAB and FPGA-based results indicate that the proposed design may be the best choice for less sensitive applications, like voice or video.

In this paper, we have proposed a modified Round Robin scheduling algorithm, in which the dynamic time quantum is computed based on Quartiles and randomness. We have considered average waiting time, average turnaround time, and the number of context switches as performance metrics and compared the proposed scheduling algorithm with existing approaches.

The time period of the dataset is from 1900 to 2021. The Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) has been applied to forecast the Total Deaths and CPI of the study area. The total of 75% of the train data is used for construction of the model and the remaining 25% dataset is used for testing the model. The ARIMA model is general provides more accurate projection especially interval forecast and is more reliable than other common statistical techniques. The best-fitted model is identified as ARIMA(2,0,1) and (2,1,2) for Cost per Index CPI and Total Deaths respectively, generated on the basis of minimum values of Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) procedures. The accuracy parameter considered as Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) both parameters shows the model is accurate respectively. There is a 7% difference between the auto and manual models for the CPI feature, similarly, there is a 4% difference for Total Deaths, indicating that CPI plays a significant impact in climatic disasters. In order to identify best fitted model, we applied the model manually and automatic processing. By means of Auto Correlation Function (ACF) and Partial Auto Correlation Function (PACF) plots, the most appropriate order of the ARIMA model are determine and evaluated. Accordingly the created model can help in determining future strategies related to climate disaster dataset of the world.

ETL pipelines need extensive resources for operations, and their performance optimization is necessary as data must be dealt with in near or even real-time. If the pipeline deals with financial data such as ATM transactions, steps should be taken to ensure the data's security, privacy, confidentiality, and integrity. This can be achieved using Blockchain technology. It is a distributed ledger technology having an immutable nature. It has significant advantages in terms of providing security, but it has disadvantages as well, such as low throughput and transactional latency. If blockchain is used in an ETL pipeline, it will affect the overall performance. So, to prevent the decline in performance, steps should be taken to optimize it. In this paper, we are using parallelization and partitioning as techniques to optimize performance.

The app was implemented in 15 districts in the first phase and has since been expanded to cover the entire province, resulting in improved teachers attendance, education quality and school monitoring at government schools. Previously, attendance was tracked manually, which was not secured and had flaws such as teachers not adhering to policy for signature, timing and signing in advance.

Essentially, it leads to lung cancer, throat infection, heart attack, and other diseases. The early forecasting of these objects may help for precautions of safety. In this paper, it is proposed to use the regression-based model auto regression integrated moving average (AIRMA) and deep learning-based model long short-term memory (LSTM) for air quality prediction. The air quality forecasting performance also depends on the quality of the available dataset. In this study, real-time data is collected from 10 different locations based on an IoT system, which is developed locally for a funded project of the Higher Education Commission (HEC). The main idea of this study is to validate the real-time collected dataset. Two objects, particulate PM2.5, and gasoline Ammonia are considered for four different locations for forecasting. Due to several issues such that electricity, Wi-Fi, sensor calibration, and collected data are not in their finest position. A number of prepossessing steps are applied to raw data to bring it into a usable form. Regardless of these issues, proposed models based on data collected by IoT system, outperform two air objects PM2.5 and Ammonia. For the case of Ammonia, an RMSE value of 0.562 is obtained which is very low to the mean value of 5.15 which indicates high performance. Similarly, very close values of 0.186 and 0.133 of RMSE and MAE were achieved respectively, and reflect the low variance in error. The LSTM-based experiment for Ammonia prediction, comparable to a very low RMSE value of 1.948 is achieved from the corresponding mean. A very small difference value of 0.287 between RMSE and MAE is obtained indicating a low variance in predicting error and high precision.","PeriodicalId":32391,"journal":{"name":"Sukkur IBA Journal of Computing and Mathematical Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43677823","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}
