Many classification techniques were used to identify weeds based on images, and most of the techniques using a binary Support Vector Machine (SVM) for measuring the percentage of accuracy. No visualization of decision boundary is illustrated to prove the best performances. To analyzing weed pattern images using One Class Support Vector Machine (SVM), feature vectors of weed images extracted using Gabor Wavelet and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) were applied. The decision boundaries of the combination extracted feature vectors are visualized and optimal feature vectors are identified. The proposed method also improve the accuracy rate in weed classification task.","PeriodicalId":433341,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Electrical, Electronics and System Engineering (ICEESE)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122016427","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}

Some things can cause flooding, for example: high rainfall, blockage of drainage, improper environmental damage, insufficient water pump capacity in flood prone areas, and so on. Flood disaster will result in the loss of an area both material and immaterial losses. Therefore, several things can be done to minimize the incidence of flooding. Surakarta region is located in the lowlands at 105m above sea level and in the city center 95m above sea level, with an area of 44.1 square km (0.14 percent of Central Java area). The highest rainfall is 560mm, while the average rainfall during the rainy day is 22 mm on that day. Land elevation in downtown is lower than suburban Surakarta, therefore it is necessary to model water drainage to know water movement in Surakarta area. Of course this system must be accompanied by accurate information, appropriate early flood handling, and good water management engineering to minimize flooding. The method used to create water channel mapping model using MASIM method approach (Material Simulation). This research modeled and observed the process through simulation. The objectives of this research are: 1) to know the result of the flooded flood model based on the assessment of the main parameters covering rainfall, water flow discharge, and regional drainage capacity, 2) identifying the distribution of potential flood inundation, 3) evaluating the existing drainage management. The discovery of this study is a new model in controlling water flow.","PeriodicalId":433341,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Electrical, Electronics and System Engineering (ICEESE)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128602574","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 main idea of vertical farming is to use a controlled-environment agriculture (CEA) technology, where all environmental factors can be controlled. Therefore, in this project, an automatic system, which consists of the Internet of Thing [IoT] is implemented in providing the controlled environment for the vertical farming. The main purpose of this project is to build a system to monitor the soil moisture and to control water content through the web browser on the laptop, mobile phone and other handheld and compact devices. In this project, a soil moisture sensor is used to detect the moisture or water content of the soil in the vertical farm so that the plant can be consecutively monitored and controlled to have enough water. When low moisture level is detected, the signals are sent to the Arduino platform. Then, the data is stored eventually in the Arduino IDE software and simultaneously sent to the web browser through the Ethernet that is connected to the internet router. The user can monitor their plant through the web browser that allows them to read the status of the soil moisture and can control the water valve to release the water to the plant whenever the reading is low or necessary. With this development, the monitoring of the vertical farming has been so helpful and the growth of the plant can be supervised from time to time without having the operator at the event.","PeriodicalId":433341,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Electrical, Electronics and System Engineering (ICEESE)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124587288","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 directly caused the world to desperately find another way to produce energy as the world current main energy source has depleted. This paper focused on piezoelectric disk especially piezoelectric transducers as it is said to be the most effective in converting mechanical vibrations to into electrical energy. Pressure was applied onto the disk and it will then convert into an electrical output (voltage). The material that behaves in such a way is also known as piezoelectric sensor. The voltage produced by the transducer can easily be assessed by voltage measuring instruments that can be used to measure stresses or forces. The physical quantity like mechanical stress or force cannot be measured directly. Therefore, piezoelectric transducer can be used. First step in doing this research is to find the placement with the highest pressure point on the insole. After thorough research, two places with the highest pressure point were found which is at the front and back of the insole. After that, a small circuit was developed to get the data for the research. The circuit which includes a rectifier as an ACDC converter that converts AC to DC to be charged to the battery. From the output, data were taken and converted into joules which are then converted again into steps.","PeriodicalId":433341,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Electrical, Electronics and System Engineering (ICEESE)","volume":"14 6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125713695","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}

Generally, the medical expert conducts a white matter hyperintensities analysis to investigate brain tissue abnormality using manual or semi-automatic methods. However, those methods are prone to error and they establish unreliable results as different in rating scales. In this paper, a fully automatic method is proposed to identify WMH using the multimodal technique which combining image segmentation and enhancement. This method is introduced as an unsupervised method to automatically segment WMH on MRI images of T2-weighted and FLAIR sequences. Subsequently, the processed sequences are integrated by overlying the mapping images in order to map the most precise WMH regions. The accuracy of the WMH regions identification is assessed through the similarity index between automated and manual approach. The experimental results show that the proposed method has achieved significant results to detect exact WMH area.

However, steel production is not just an easy step process. Untempered steel, though hard, is too brittle to be useful for most applications. In order to enhance its properties, the application of heat treatment is performed to steel. Heat treatment is a meticulously sensitive and an extremely tedious process due to temperature sensing. Nowadays, the common way to determine the temperature of a certain metal is through the use of human vision or a thermal imaging camera. However, these methods are either inaccurate or very expensive to setup. In this study, the application of artificial neural networks (ANN) in assessing the steel discoloration when it undergoes extreme temperatures is a cheaper and more accurate way of reading or sensing its temperature. The use of neural network technology can easily adapt to classify a wide range of discoloration from different metals especially steel.","PeriodicalId":433341,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Electrical, Electronics and System Engineering (ICEESE)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129567550","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}
