Due to the complex changes in CT scan treatment, it is difficult to identify the Covid-19 in the lung image. According to the latest clinical research, an automated fast framework is still required to resolve error prone problem from the pandemic assessment and Covid19 patients screening during this critical control period. Computer aided methods can be very useful in this regard. They are suitable to estimate the infected lung boundary based on elliptical Hough transform with reduced time processing. In this paper, we propose to use a computerized approach to show that the deep neural network (DNN) is a distinctive method to classify Covid-19 pandemic. Experimental results on various lung CT scan images of different Covid-19 patients, demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology when compared to the manual scoring of pathological experts. According to the performance evaluation, we recorded more than 92% for accuracy of infection detected in ROI scoring over the truths provided by experienced radiologists. Comparative automatic studies are performed to demonstrate the suitability of the proposed technique over other advanced techniques from the literature.","PeriodicalId":50177,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science and Engineering","volume":"43 1","pages":"1083-1095"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77898890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dynamic Huffman coding protocol with optimal prefix-free codewords assigned to network parameters through cross-layer methodology can considerably address these issues for performance enhancement in these networks. In this paper, the entropy based Huffman binary and ternary coding schemes are implemented with cross-layer design in mobile ad-hoc networks. This cross-layer approach for achieving higher adaptivity incorporated four layers of the traditional networking stack. The simulation results demonstrated the performance tradeoff between throughput and coding metrics for the proposed cross-layer architecture. Moreover, our proposed model exhibits substantially higher compression ratio and coding efficiency than the other existing methods through the integration of this lossless coding protocol in the developed cross-layer framework.","PeriodicalId":50177,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science and Engineering","volume":"20 1","pages":"1375-1386"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89708757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hashmani","doi":"10.6688/JISE.202011_36(6).0011","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.6688/JISE.202011_36(6).0011","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, a new algorithm incorporating broadening selection strategy in competitive constraint handling paradigm for finding the optimum solution in constrained problems has been proposed, referred as Broadening Selection Competitive Constraint Handling (BSCCH). Although, competitive constraint handling approaches have proved to be very efficient, but they lack faster convergence due to offspring generation from random individuals. By incorporating selection strategy such as broadening selection in the competitive approach, better results are obtained and convergence rate is improved significantly. Incorporating said strategy, the BSCCH algorithm has been proposed which is generic in nature and can be coupled with various evolutionary algorithms. In this study, the BSCCH algorithm has been coupled with Differential Evolution algorithm as a proof of concept because it is found to be an efficient algorithm in the literature for constrained optimization problems. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated using 24 benchmark functions. The mean closure performance of the BSCCH algorithm is compared against seven selected state-of-the-art algorithms, namely Differential Evolution with Adaptive Trial Vector Generation Strategy and Cluster-replacement-based Feasibility Rule (CACDE), Improved Teaching Learning Based Optimization (ITLBO), Modified Global Best Artificial Bee Colony (MGABC), Stochastic Ranking Differential Evolution (SRDE), Novel Differential Evolution (NDE), Partical Swarm Optimization for solving engineering problems - a new constraint handling mechanism (CVI-PSO) and Ensemble of Constraint Handling Techniques (ECHT). The median convergence traces have been compared with two different algorithms based on differential evolution, i:e: Ensemble of Constraint Handling Techniques (ECHT) and Stochastic Ranking Differential Evolution (SRDE). ECHT is considered to be a flagship ensemble technique till date for constrained optimization problems, whereas SRDE employs a parent selection mechanism for constrained optimization. The proposed algorithm is found to provide better solutions and achieve significantly faster convergence in most of the problems.","PeriodicalId":50177,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"1293-1314"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72854919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dynamics is described by four-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations that expresses the transmissions between susceptible and infectious/infective individuals. In the second model, we include the importance of adult scabiei mite in the real interaction with hosts. Nonnegativity and boundedness of solutions of the models are conducted. A threshold parameter is calculated for each model which ensures the existence of all corresponding equilibria. Using candidate Lyapunov functions, it is shown that whenever the threshold parameter is less than or equal unity, the models have an associated disease-free equilibrium that is globally asymptotically stable. In addition, when the threshold exceeds unity the models have a globally asymptotically stable endemic equilibrium. Finally, using some parameter values related to the scabies infection dynamics, numerical simulation results are demonstrated to clarify the main theoretical results.","PeriodicalId":50177,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Information Science and Engineering","volume":"1 1","pages":"1261-1277"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82010228","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
