Especially, Advanced Metering Infrastructure proves to be useful for customers and consumer companies for efficient usage of energy and its cost calculations. However, such systems are more prone to cyber-attacks because of frequent real time communication between the providers and customers. The wireless and wired networks are used as the source of communication between the various components of AMI. In this study, we have done threat modelling to identify possible wireless attacks to compromise the AMI assets. We have used STRIDE and DREAD models for threat modelling. One of the major contributions of this study is classification and risk ratings of wireless attacks using STRIDE and DREAD models.","PeriodicalId":434612,"journal":{"name":"2019 13th International Conference on Mathematics, Actuarial Science, Computer Science and Statistics (MACS)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123166397","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}

Hence, accurate blur detection and classification becomes essential to understand the information wrapped up in blurry images. In this paper, we proposed a novel automatic blur and non-blur region detection, and classification technique “Frequency-based Multi-level Fusion Transformation” (FMFT) to detect the unwanted blurry region and classify the blur and non-blur regions using single image processing. Our proposed approach mainly works with frequency sub-bands in patch wise manner, without having any prior information regarding camera configuration, type of blur and intensity of blur. Moreover, the detected Tri-Map from FMFT is further processed to perform blur and non-blur regions classification along with sharp object detection from blurry images using KNN-Matting. The average F1-score of 0.98 signifies the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of blur detection and classification. Additionally, the proposed method also outperforms existing state-of-the-art techniques.","PeriodicalId":434612,"journal":{"name":"2019 13th International Conference on Mathematics, Actuarial Science, Computer Science and Statistics (MACS)","volume":"148 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122433386","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}

Javed, Muhammad Ammar Khan","doi":"10.1109/MACS48846.2019.9024808","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/MACS48846.2019.9024808","url":null,"abstract":"Many digital images contain blurred regions which are caused by motion or defocus. The defocus blur reduces the contrast and sharpness detail of the image. Automatic blur detection and segmentation is an important and challenging task in the field of Computer vision “e.g. object recognition and scene interpretation” that requires the extraction and processing of large amounts of data from sharp areas of the image. Therefore, the sharp and blur areas must be segmented separately to assure that the information is extracted from the sharp regions. The existing techniques on blur detection and segmentation have taken a lot of effort and time to design metric maps of local clarity. Furthermore, these methods have various limitations “i.e. low accuracy rate in noisy images, detecting blurred smooth and sharp smooth regions, and high execution cost”. Therefore, there is a dire necessity to propose a method for the detection and segmentation of defocus blur robust to the aforementioned limitations. In this paper, we present a novel defocus blur detection and segmentation algorithm, “Local Triplicate Co-occurrence Patterns” (LTCoP) for the separation of in-focus and out-of-focus regions. It is observed that the fusion of extracted higher and lower patterns of LTCoP produces far better results than the others. To test the effectiveness of our algorithm, the proposed method is compared with several state-of-the-art techniques over a large number of sample images. The experimental results show that the proposed technique obtains comparative results with state-of-the-art methods and offers a significant high-speed advantage over them. Therefore, we argue that the proposed method can reliably be used for defocus blur detection and segmentation in high-density images.","PeriodicalId":434612,"journal":{"name":"2019 13th International Conference on Mathematics, Actuarial Science, Computer Science and Statistics (MACS)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132558763","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}

Dysfunction of heart function even for a couple of moments can be fatal, therefore, efficient monitoring of its physiological state is essential for the patients with cardiovascular diseases. In the recent past, various computer assisted medical imaging systems have been proposed for the segmentation of the organ of interest. However, for the segmentation of heart using MRI, only few methods have been proposed each with its own merits and demerits. For further advancement in this area of research, we analyze automated heart segmentation methods for magnetic resonance images. The analysis are based on deep learning methods that processes a full MR scan in a slice by slice fashion to predict desired mask for heart region. We design two encoder-decoder type fully convolutional neural network models (1) Multi-Channel input scheme (also known as 2.5D method), (2) a single channel input scheme with relatively large size network. Both models are evaluated on real MRI dataset and their performances are analysed for different test samples on standard measures such as Jaccard score, Youden's index and Dice score etc. Python implementation of our code is made publicly available at https://github.com/Shak97/iceest2019 for performance evaluation.","PeriodicalId":434612,"journal":{"name":"2019 13th International Conference on Mathematics, Actuarial Science, Computer Science and Statistics (MACS)","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124355813","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}

Accurate and precise forecasting of floods is very complex as it depends on many factors like precipitation, cloud to ground flashes, geomagnetic field, color of water, wind velocity, wind direction, temperature and others. In this research paper classification approaches like Linear Support vector machine, Quadratic Support vector machine, K-nearest neighbor and Linear discriminant analysis have been implemented to classify the true positive event of flash floods accurately and precisely. Comparative analysis has been performed between these three algorithms to determine the highest accuracy algorithm.

The objectives of this study were to identify data consumer perceived data quality constructs that needed for active data utilization, to measure the satisfaction level of data consumers with the quality of data, and to investigate the significant of differences of overall satisfaction of data quality constructs among data consumers from different administrative levels. A stratified random sample design was used that involved 45 respondents from the different national disaster management agencies. The analysis on the perception of the data consumers on important data quality constructs revealed twelve from fifteen constructs that important for them; accessibility, timely, accuracy, completeness, valid, interpretability, consistency, clarity, relevant, comparability, usability and trustworthy. However, results from the Important-Performance Analysis evaluation considered only eight data quality constructs that significant for them. Data quality construct namely timely, accuracy and consistency were well maintained but trustworthy, relevant, usability, completeness and accessibility need to be improved. The overall satisfaction rate was capped at 65.8% based on Consumer Satisfaction Index and 63.96% based on Employee Satisfaction Index, respectively. This indicates that overall data consumer satisfaction was at moderate level.
