It provides computation and resources over the Internet via dynamic provisioning of services. There are quite a few challenges and issues connected with implementation of cloud computing. This paper considers one of its major problems, i.e. task scheduling. The function of an efficient task scheduling algorithm is that it concentrates not only on attaining the requirements of the user but also in enhancing the efficiency of the cloud computing system. Cloud task scheduling is an NP-hard optimization problem, and many meta-heuristic algorithms have been proposed to solve it. This paper proposes a modified Penguins Search Optimization Algorithm (MPeSOA) for efficient cloud task scheduling. The main contribution of our work is to schedule all tasks to available virtual machines so that the makespan is minimized, resource utilization is increased and the degree of imbalance is reduced. The proposed scheduling algorithm was simulated using the CloudSim 4.0 simulator. Experimental results showed that the proposed MPeSOA outperformed three existing meta-heuristics, namely Penguins Search Optimization Algorithm (PeSOA), Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO).","PeriodicalId":42021,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Next-Generation Computing","volume":"104 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80470251","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}

Attributes like words, voice intonation, facial expressions, and kinesics can all be used to portray one's feelings. However, brain-computer interface (BCI) devices have not yet reached the level required for emotion interpretation. With the rapid development of machine learning algorithms, dry electrode techniques, and different real-world applications of the brain-computer interface for normal individuals, emotion categorization from EEG data has recently gotten a lot of attention. Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals are a critical resource for these systems. The primary benefit of employing EEG signals is that they reflect true emotion and are easily resolved by computer systems. In this work, EEG signals associated with good, neutral, and negative emotions were identified using channel selection preprocessing. However, researchers had a limited grasp of the specifics of the link between various emotional states until now. To identify EEG signals, we used discrete wavelet transform and machine learning techniques such as recurrent neural network (RNN) and k-nearest neighbor (kNN) algorithm. Initially, the classifier methods were utilized for channel selection. As a result, final feature vectors were created by integrating the features of EEG segments from these channels. Using the RNN and kNN algorithms, the final feature vectors with connected positive, neutral, and negative emotions were categorized independently. The classification performance of both techniques is computed and compared. Using RNN and kNN, the average overall accuracies were 94.844 % and 93.438 %, respectively.","PeriodicalId":42021,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Next-Generation Computing","volume":"15 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85976806","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 of the key problems in warehouse management is controlling the internal delivery/movement of goods/objects. It is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and needs additional care based on delicacy goods. Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) that are small in size can serve as a solution to the aforementioned problem of locomotion. For any robot to move autonomously, the initial and critical requirement is to understand the surrounding environment precisely. Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) is the preferred method to build an environment map at runtime. SLAM is designed to work in a static environment and faces a few challenges once it involves dynamic objects. This research proposes Deep Learning to enhance the SLAM technique. It aids the identification of static and dynamic objects and consequently updates the occupancy grid map. The proposed approach has been validated through a simulated environment and a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) for the classification of static and dynamic objects. The simulation results demonstrate the promising nature of the proposed approach.","PeriodicalId":42021,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Next-Generation Computing","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87451332","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 examines current practices, problems,and trends in satellite image processing. This formal review focused on the summarization of major classificationapproaches from 1995. Two dominant research trends have been noticed in automated land cover classification,e.g., per pixel and subpixel analysis.

Initially, simple sentences get generated and subsequently moved on to compound sentence and complex sentence generation.

The Glaucoma is examined by an experienced ophthalmologist on the retinal part of the eye. This process required excessive equipment, experienced medical practitioners and also it take more time to work out manually. After considering this problem there is an extreme requirement of developing an automatic system which will effectively and automatically work properly in lack of any professional doctor and it should also take less time.
