In this study, we integrated a heuristic and a deep learning-based method using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for automatic text extraction from videos. The two independent steps used for text extraction are; candidate text region detection and classification. In first step, rectangular regions were detected that potentially contain text by applying heuristics, which includes morphological processing and geometrical constraints. Then, the obtained candidate text regions were passed through several layers of CNN, that first produced convolutional feature map and then classified the candidate regions into either text or not-text classes. A dataset was prepared by collecting videos from various Turkish channels. 70% of the data was used to train the network while 30% for validation.

The system consists of four separate PV panel and for each panel four DC-DC push-pull converters whose outputs are parallel connected at the end. On the other hand, control of the system includes incremental conductance methods for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and interleaving technique where the control of whole system is achieved with a single DSP.In order to predict system operation, detailed simulation has been created in MATLAB/Simulink environment. According to result, at least 94% efficiency across the push-pull converters and 99% of MPPT efficiency are achieved.

This method uses two variable transformers driven by two separate stepper motors controlled by a microcontroller with a final step-down toroid transformer. To measure the circuit breaker, trip current level an accurate Hall-Effect current sensor was used and the trip time is determined by a microcontroller-based peripheral timer.

In this paper preliminary range estimation algorithm is developed for a HPV combined with electric motor via series-parallel powertrain which is named as Human Electric Hybrid (HEH) vehicle. The software architecture and mechanical overview of the powertrain components of the HEH vehicle are presented. The average-consumption-based range estimation algorithm is introduced and simulated for a daily urban drive cycle for several driving conditions. The results show that proposed algorithm provides approximate estimation of the remaining range for daily usage with limited information and without requiring additional devices.","PeriodicalId":6611,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Electrical and Electronics Engineering (ELECO)","volume":"303 1","pages":"840-844"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77186776","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}

Proposed control method in this study was named as semi-analytical because at the beginning of the analysis experimental data were required. The basis of the control algorithm is based on the creation of a speed lookup table with different flow rate references for the PMSM to optimize the EEI value. Proposed optimization method was analyzed in the Mathcad and compared with the test results. The suggested control method was applied on a wet rotor circulation pump with an EEI of 0.23 and EEI was reduced to 0.20.
