Negative correlation learning (NCL) method was used to teach artificial neural network. Negative correlation learning, which trains artificial neural networks in groups instead of teaching them individually, is a new technique. By teaching different individual networks as only one network, different parts can be taught at the same time and with this feature teaching will be better and teaching time will be shorter. In this study, image taken with mobile phone were partitioned by processing optical character recognition techniques and their properties were determined. After these letters' images was classified and converted into text by using artificial neural network ensemble which were taught by negative correlation learning respectively. This system work successfully.","PeriodicalId":354057,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Electronics, Computer and Computation (ICECCO)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116630760","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 spectrum utilization can be improved by secondary users through using free licensed channels in the absence of the primary user. In this work, we seek two objectives, channel estimation in predictive modeling scenario and multi-secondary user scenario using Artificial Neural Networks. Time Delay Neural Network (TDNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) have been selected to design the predictor. The accuracy of this forecasting can easily improve the spectrum utilization. In the second scenario, a channel status predictor is configured for each secondary user enabling them to identify the best available channel. Simulation results show that the prediction error has been reduced to less than 14% in average. However, in some cases it can predict the next channel status correctly with zero error prediction.","PeriodicalId":354057,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Electronics, Computer and Computation (ICECCO)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124860424","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}

These events can be sorted as overvoltage, short circuit, voltage drop, and power loss. Short circuit, voltage drop and power loss are related to the parameters of the power line which belongs to the electrical network, and overvoltage is related to parallel resonance. System impedance increases extremely during parallel resonance. If current of system (50Hz) or harmonic currents encounter high impedance, overvoltage occurs. In this study, parameters and parallel resonance power of the power line were estimated by using Genetic Algorithm (GA). If parallel resonance power is determined accurately, it isn't exceeded by load capacitor power, and parallel resonance doesn't occur. It was seen at the end of experimental results that estimation accuracy rate (EAR) of GA is adequate to solve these problems.","PeriodicalId":354057,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Electronics, Computer and Computation (ICECCO)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123549004","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 paper implements a new activation algorithm based on smart prediction with least number of sensors that ensure a reliable target tracking with a minimal number of active nodes. The prediction of the next location is being done in polar coordinates, so a half circle of sensors will be activated only.

We verified the accuracy of our proposed model using Nangate 45nm standard cell library. The results indicate that making use of logarithmic skewness, results in a better modeling compared to linear and bivariate models. Employing linear and logarithmic skewnesses, results in 23.3X and 38.5X improvement in R-Squares in respect with constant and bivariate model. Also, using logarithmic skewness reduces the Root Mean Squares Error (RMSE) and Sum of Squared Errors (SSE) by 14.6% and 26.2% respectively.","PeriodicalId":354057,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Electronics, Computer and Computation (ICECCO)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116285156","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 development of these tools require access to incident-level crime data. Obtaining real data is very restricted if not possible due to the official regulations. In this paper, a parametric model is proposed to generate the incident-level crime datasets involving crimes, criminals and criminals' suspicious acquaintances where the parameters are used for fine tuned adaptation of the model. The motivation for this approach is that unsupervised approaches for crime analysis do not require fully realistic data set in order to develop decision making algorithms. The model is based on GIS by approximating the characteristics of the population in real-life. Then, results of various GIS related queries are demonstrated on the GIS map to enable the visual analysis of the incidents.","PeriodicalId":354057,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Electronics, Computer and Computation (ICECCO)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126023072","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 results reveal that dW-ABC kNN algorithm improves the correct classification performance in Iris, Haberman, and Breast Cancer data set. The performance degradation occurs when it is applied on Zoo data set.

This paper provides an implementation of tracking a hand-on robotic platform from another autonomous robot almost at the same size, which will be referred as the `chase-hunter' application. The proposed alignment control algorithm has the advantage that can be implemented on very simple robots that lack complex sensing capabilities to detect random obstacles and the orientation of their pair robot.
