The performance of shunt Active Power Filter depends on the two factors i.e., type of the controller and methods used to obtain the reference current. Generally, the type of controller used in most of the Active Power Filters is traditional PI controller or Fuzzy Logic Controller. Recently, Fault Tolerant Shunt Active Power Filter was proposed using PI controller with redundancy method to guarantee reliability of Active Power Filters. However in this study, we propose a Fault tolerant Shunt Active Power Filter using Fuzzy Logic Controller instead of PI controller to achieve better performance in terms of Total Harmonic Distortion. Simulation results are obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK for Fuzzy based Fault tolerant Shunt Active Power Filter in presence of open / short circuit fault and shown better results in comparison with Fault Tolerant Shunt Active Filter using PI controller.","PeriodicalId":6615,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Communication and Computational Technologies (ICCICCT)","volume":"379 1","pages":"1334-1337"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78799358","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 simplest method to segment an image is thresholding. Using the thresholding method, segmentation of an image is done by fixing all pixels whose intensity values are more than the threshold to a foreground value. The remaining pixels are set to a background value. Such technique can be used to obtain binary images from grayscale images. The conventional thresholding techniques use a global threshold for all pixels, whereas adaptive thresholding changes the threshold value dynamically over the image. This paper offers a comparative study on adaptive thresholding techniques to choose the accurate method for binarizing an image based on the contrast, texture, resolution etc. of an image.","PeriodicalId":6615,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Communication and Computational Technologies (ICCICCT)","volume":"1 1","pages":"1182-1186"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89680457","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}

In this stage of OCR, the image of sequence of characters is decomposed into sub-images of individual symbols. The recognition of characters depends on this phase so that any mistake in the segmentation leads to a complete failure of the OCR system. One of the main reasons for incorrect segmentation of characters is the presence of broken characters in the input document. Here an approach based on Active Contour Model is proposed to solve this problem.","PeriodicalId":6615,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Communication and Computational Technologies (ICCICCT)","volume":"71 1","pages":"958-962"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86405958","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}

It is an abstraction of the concept of pooling resources and presenting them as virtual resources. Using cloud computing resources, data, computations, and services can be shared over scalable network of nodes; these nodes may represent the datacenters, end user computers and web services. On the same note cloud storage refers to storing the data on a remote storage located at other organization's infrastructure. The data storage is maintained and managed by the organization; the user will pay for the storage space which is used. Outsourcing data ultimately relinquishes the control of data from user and the fate of data is in control of the cloud server. As the data is stored on cloud server, the storage correctness of data is put on risk. The cloud server is managed by cloud service provider which is a different administrative entity, so ensuring the data integrity is of prime importance. This article studies the problems of ensuring data storage correctness and proposes an efficient and secure method to address these issues. A third party auditor is introduced securely, who will on behalf of users request will periodically verify the data integrity of the data stored on cloud server. There will not be any online burden on user and security of data will be maintained as the data will not be shared directly with the third party auditor. A homomorphic encryption scheme is used to encrypt the data which will be shared with the TPA. The results can be further extended to enable the third party auditor to do multiple auditing.","PeriodicalId":6615,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Communication and Computational Technologies (ICCICCT)","volume":"52 1","pages":"695-699"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79127852","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 objective of this paper is to design an area efficient fully parallel distributed arithmetic (DA) architecture for one-dimensional DCT to be implemented on field programmable gate array (FPGA). DCT requires large amount of mathematical computations including multiplications and accumulations. The multipliers consume increased power and area; hence multipliers are completely discarded in the proposed design. Distributed arithmetic is a method of modification at bit stream for sum of product or vector dot product to hide the multiplications. DA is very much suitable for FPGA designs as it reduces the size of a multiply and accumulate hardware. The speed is increased in the proposed design with the fully parallel approach. In this work, existing DA architecture for 1D-DCT and the proposed area efficient fully parallel DA architecture for 1D-DCT are realized. The simulation is performed using Modelsim6.2b and synthesized with Xilinx IS E Simulator. The 1D-DCT can be extended to 2D-DCT by using row column decomposition technique.","PeriodicalId":6615,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Control, Instrumentation, Communication and Computational Technologies (ICCICCT)","volume":"29 1","pages":"294-299"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90665341","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}
