The ORPD is modeled as a nonlinear, multimodal and mixed-variable problem. This paper investigates a novel framework optimization technique, namely wind driven optimization (WDO), to solve the ORPD problem. The WDO is a new type of nature-inspired algorithms that is based on atmospheric motion. The WDO algorithm makes use of gravitation and Coriolis forces to update the velocity equation in order to increase the randomness in fine tuning. To avoid their premature convergence, the modified WDO (MWDO) with automatically variation of the control parameters is proposed. Simulations are carried out for the IEEE 14, 30-bus system, and West Delta Network as a part of the Egyptian system. The obtained results are compared with different methods in the literature to show the capability of the proposed MWDO for power loss minimization.","PeriodicalId":414253,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Innovative Trends in Computer Engineering (ITCE)","volume":"18 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122373482","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}

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems can help to detect melanoma early. In this paper, we propose a new skin melanoma CAD system using texture analysis methods. The proposed CAD system consists of four steps: hair removal, filtering, feature extraction and classification. In the feature extraction step, we evaluate the performance of five widely used texture analysis methods: grey level co-occurrence matrix, Gabor filters, a histogram of oriented gradients, local binary pattern and local directional number. Our CAD system classifies between non-melanoma skin lesions (represented as common nevi or dysplastic nevi) and melanoma. The experimental results show that extracting HOG features after hair removal yields the best classification results. HOG gives an AUC of 0.9783 with melanoma/common nevi classification and an AUC of 0.9439 with melanoma/dysplastic nevi classification.","PeriodicalId":414253,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Innovative Trends in Computer Engineering (ITCE)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121398758","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 developed model based on transmitting the connected SVC bus from load bus (PQ bus) to PV bus with controlling the voltage magnitude value. However, the transmitted bus generates zero active power and updated reactive power until the convergence of load flow is achieved. The simplified SVC model has different merits than the other traditional models such as; limit of Jacobian matrix modification, avoiding the modification in original admittance matrix, improving the convergence characteristic and reducing computation time. The developed model is validated based on small and large scale IEEE test systems.","PeriodicalId":414253,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Innovative Trends in Computer Engineering (ITCE)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124497682","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}

Many research efforts were given for enhancing the SE of MFSK. In this paper, SE of coherent single tone MFSK is improved by filling up the same allocated spectral band-width by larger number of uniformly spaced non-orthogonal tones. The main idea resides in two main points, first, regarding the detection task as an operation of super-resolution (SR) spectral line estimation, second, highlighting implicit sparsity construction of MFSK scheme. Compressive sensing (CS) based SR approaches are enabled for resolving activated atom from over-complete dictionary. Moreover, more general keying schemes can be performed on learned dictionary instead of the classical Fourier (sinusoidal) dictionary, where each atom may occupy the whole allocated spectrum instead of residing on a specific tone. This allows better diversity against narrow band interference and frequency selective fading channel under sever fading conditions but, on the cost of losing the constant envelop advantage.","PeriodicalId":414253,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Innovative Trends in Computer Engineering (ITCE)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116946432","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}

Although, this increase represents an environmental advantage. Charging of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) considers a challenge for the electric utilities. In this paper, the charging impact of PEVs on a benchmark low voltage (LV) grid has been studied. The LV network used as a case study is developed by the EU project “Microgrids”. Two charging scenarios have been investigated in this paper, 1) uncontrolled charging, and 2) Indirect controlled charging with Time of Use (TOU) pricing. In each scenario, different penetration levels of PEVs have been studied (e.g., 20 %, 30%, and 50%). The effects of PEVs charging on transformer loading, feeders loading, and voltages at the endpoints of the feeders have been investigated. 24-hour time-series simulations have been used in the study. The results demonstrate that with the use of indirect controlled charging a higher number of PEVs can be charged from the distribution network without infrastructure upgrade and for uncontrolled charging infrastructure upgrade will be needed.","PeriodicalId":414253,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Innovative Trends in Computer Engineering (ITCE)","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124396254","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}
