Image Segmentation

Medical image processing is the most challenging and emerging field now a day. Processing of MRI images is one of the parts of this field. This paper work describes a good and efficient strategy to detect and extract the brain tumor[4][5] from patient’s brain MRI images. In this method an algorithm is developed, the primary part of this algorithm is to convert given MRI image into binary image (0 and 1) using segmentation technique[6] called multiple Otsu Thresholding[7], after which morphological operations[8] [9]has been applied. The obtained image is matched with the SRI24 database which is a MRI-based atlas of 24 normal adult human brain anatomies. The work is done and comprised by making a graphical user interface (GUI) in MATLAB. The algorithm results in good accuracy and better time for recognition of the brain tumor.

A DC-link voltage is widely used in industrials and domestic’s application. Simple diode rectifier’s bridges are used to create dc voltage link. A diode rectifier has a high distortion input currents wave form and low power factor. A single phase AC–DC boost converter is realized to replace the conventional diode bridge rectifier. Fuzzy logic and hysteresis control techniques is implemented to improve the performance of the boost converter. The current loop is being controlled by using a PI, and hysteresis controllers. The fuzzy controller is applied to DC voltage loop circuit to get better performance. The results show that the fuzzy controller gives well controller. The controller is verified via MATLAB/Simulink.

The knee is one of the most important and injured site in human body. Current evaluation of the knee joint status are based on imaging such as CT and MRI, which are sensitive to knee joint disorders and expensive too, and others include the semi- invasive procedures. In order to overcome these problems a vibroarthrography is introduced. The aims of the present study were to investigate the most suitable location for vibroarthrography measurements of the knee joint to distinguish a healthy knee from knee osteoarthritis.Vibroarthrography appear as an innovative and non-invasive approach to solve this problem. Mechanical vibratory signals arising from the defected knee joint can be recorded recurring to a tiny accelerometer. Healthy cartilage is smooth and slippery, producing minimum vibration while deteriorated cartilage is more irregular, producing additional vibrations. Vibrations generated by the friction of deteriorated articular surfaces are different in terms of frequency and amplitude originating distinct and representative vibroarthrographic signals which allows the differentiation of a healthy and a pathological knee. In this work, the normal and pathological knee vibrations is acquired and processed by LMS Adaptive filter and its frequencies is obtained.

This paper is focused on seed sowing process using a Bluetooth operated machine. The integral construction of the machine is made simple to use. In the farming process, Conventional seeding operation takes more time and more labor. Due to more sowing rate the time required for the total operation is more and the labor cost is increased. So Automation in farming would provide one of the feasible solutions. For that, we are going to automate the seed sowing machine. This machine is controlled by a Smartphone. This project focuses on developing the Bluetooth operated mobile machine to minimize the working cost and increase the accuracy of seed sowing. A 12V battery is used which gives supply to the overall system of the machine, we can also connects solar panel to this circuit. PIC Microcontroller is used which controls the machine for desired sowing operation and a Bluetooth interface is used to navigate the machine.

Cylindrical grinding is very important process to improve quality of the component and to get precision dimensions with smooth surface finish. In the manufacturing sector, producing smooth surface finish plays an important role. To fulfill this smooth finish, surface grinding process is mostly used in which the parameters to be considered are surface quality and metal removal rate. Several factors which include depth of cut, wheel grade, wheel speed, material properties and table speed affects the machining process economics. This paper mainly focuses on developing the empirical models using response surface methodology for surface roughness and metal removal rate by considering control factors as wheel speed, table speed and depth of cut. The main objective of using Response surface methodology (RSM) on surface grinding operation of EN19 steel is to find optimum machining parameters which leads to minimize surface roughness and maximum metal removal rate. For conducting the experiment EN19 material was chosen due to various applications in automobile and mechanical components. While experimenting on cylindrical grinding machine having silicon carbide wheel L9 Orthogonal array with input variables for analysis and for optimization Taguchi method was implemented. The optimization model developed could be beneficial to many different manufacturers to get right combination of matching parameters to achieve minimum surface roughness.

The aim of study is to project the future climate of the Kabul River Basin of Afghanistan under the recent IPCC AR5 data set . The SimCLIM model was applied for climate modeling. A multi- model ensemble was used for best representation of future climate under the selected RCP4.5 and 8.5 pathways with time span of 2021-2040 (2030s), 2051-2070 (2060s) and 2081-2100 (2090s) with respect to baseline of 1961-2010. The output of multi-model ensemble climate modeling illustrated a considerable change in temperature and precipitation of the basin. The potential seasonal change of Tmax under RCP 4.5 and 8.5 pathways demonstrated peek rise in the winter season and lowest increases in the summer months, the change not exceed from 4.49˚C in winter and 3.96˚C in the summer by end of the century. In addition, under both pathways RCP4.5 and 8.5 the future Tmin depicted high rise at winter and lowest increase at the spring months, under the high emission scenario RCP8.5 the Tmin projected to increase by 4.53˚C and 3.49˚C at winter and spring respectively by the end of this century. However, the overall multi-model ensemble results of future seasonal precipitation pattern showed both downtrend and upward trend in spring and summer at all three periods, under RCP 8.5 the percentage of downtrend and upward projected (-5.02%) in autumn and (+1.55%) in winter by end of the century with respect to baseline, under this pathway the overall annual precipitation pattern simulated to decrease (-2.18%) by end this century.

Many kinds of pipes are being utilized to construct important lifelines such as water and gas supply in our contemporary society. Also pipes are widely used in chemical industries and in gulf countries for carrying petrol, diesel, oil etc. But after some years these pipes get damaged and defects are occurring in pipe. If the defects in the pipe are caused by rust and nature calamity, it is difficult to find out the defects and the location of the defects, and also there is great amount of loss of fluids and gases. Thus scheduled inspection must be done. If we decide to do this inspection manually then large amount of time, effort and labour is necessary to grub up the pipes that are buried in the ground. If the robot can inspect inside the pipes, fast and accurate examination will be able to be done at low cost. Size and shape adaptability will be achieved by chuck-jaw mechanism.

Material handling systems are commonly used in almost all the industries in all over the world. It is an art and science involving moving, packaging and storing of substances in various forms. This paper contains design of low cost bale trolley used for cotton bale handling. The Bajaj steel industry has manufactured cotton pressing machine 15 BP4818, for that they need to design new trolley according to the size of bale. They have previously designed bale trolley for another press machine (for BP5421) which is not suitable for this new pressing machine (15 BP4818). As more and heavy material was used in previous design which was leading in increasing cost of the bale trolley. Requirement is to improve previous design and to reduce weight according to cotton bale size (which is 175 kg). The Bajaj steel industry is continuously working for higher productivity, cost reduction and quality improvement of the ginning and pressing equipment. As a result of this research can accomplish the requirement of low cost bale trolley for 15 BP 4818 cotton pressing machine. So improve productivity and quality. Since reducing weight and improving design bring significant cost reductions in material handling process.

We analyze the information credibility of news propagated through Twitter, a popular microblogging service. Previous research has shown that most of the messages posted on Twitter are truthful, but the service is also used to spread misinformation and false rumors, often unintentionally. Specifically, we analyze microblog postings related to “trending” topics, and classify them as credible or not credible, based on features extracted from them. We use features from users’ posting and re-posting (“re-tweeting”) behavior, from the text of the posts, and from citations to external sources. Our results show that there are measurable differences in the way messages propagate, that can be used to classify them automatically as credible or not credible.

In wireless sensor networks, exploiting the sink mobility has been taken into consideration as an excellent approach to stability the nodes strength dissipation. The statistics dissemination to the mobile sink is a challenging mission for the useful resource restrained sensor nodes because of the dynamic community topology caused by the sink mobility. For efficient facts shipping, nodes need to reconstruct their routes toward the modern-day vicinity of the cellular sink, which undermines the energy conservation aim. on this paper, provided a virtual grid primarily based dynamic routes adjustment scheme that ambitions to decrease the routes reconstruction price of the sensor nodes whilst preserving almost most suitable routes to the cutting-edge vicinity of the mobile sink. Proposed a hard and fast of conversation guidelines that governs the routes reconstruction procedure thereby requiring only a confined quantity of nodes to readjust their statistics transport routes in the direction of the cellular sink. Simulation consequences exhibit reduced routes reconstruction cost and improved network life of the VGDRA scheme with high protection using masking encryption.

Data Clustering

Data clustering is an approach for automatically finding classes, concepts, or groups of patterns. It also aims at representing large datasets by a few number of prototypes or clusters. It brings simplicity in modelling data and plays an important role in the process of knowledge discovery and data mining. Data mining tasks require fast and accurate partitioning of huge datasets, which may come with a variety of attributes or features. This imposes computational requirements on the clustering techniques. Swarm Intelligence (SI) has emerged that meets these requirements and has successfully been applied to a number of real world clustering problems. This paper looks into the use of Particle Swarm Optimization for cluster analysis. The effectiveness of Fuzzy C-means clustering provides enhanced performance and maintains more diversity in the swarm and allows the particles to be robust to trace the changing environment. Data structure identifying from the large scale data has become a very important in the data mining problems. Cluster analysis identifies groups of similar data items in large datasets which is one of its recent beneficiaries. The increasing complexity and large amounts of data in the data sets that have seen data clustering emerge as a popular focus for the application of optimization based techniques. Different optimization techniques have been applied to investigate the optimal solution for clustering problems. This paper also proposes two new approaches using PSO to cluster data. It is shown how PSO can be used to find the centroids of a user specified number of clusters.

Wireless Communication

Future wireless communication systems will utilize the spatial properties of the wireless channel to improve the spectral efficiency and thus increase capacity. This is realized by deploying multiple antennas at both the transmitter and receiver. Due to the unpredictable nature of the wireless channel, a common approach is to model its effects statistically. A few large world-wide co operations, like the third generation partnership project (3GPP) have developed channel models intended for reference and standardization use. These models are partly based on some bulk parameters that describe the characteristics of the channel over larger areas of several wavelengths. Such parameters include shadow fading, angle spread, and delay spread, etc. In the spatial channel model (SCM) these large-scale parameters are assumed independently between separate links, i.e., channel modelling, propagation between different mobile and base stations. This paper focuses on investigation of MIMO system capacity using the Spatial Channel Model (SCM) and Channel Capacity, Spatial Autocorrelation for different channel environments, proposed by standardization bodies (3GPP-3GPP2) for third generation systems. This SCM offers three environments such as suburban macro-cell, urban macro-cell and urban micro-cell parameters are obtained by using MATLAB 7.12.0.

The manual system of preparing time table in colleges with large number of students is very time consuming and usually ends up with various classes clashing either at same room or with same teachers having more than one class at a time. These are just due to common human errors which are very difficult to prevent in processes such as these. To overcome these problems people usually taking the previous year’s timetable and modifying it but still it is a tedious job to in cooperate changes. To overcome all these problems we propose to make an automated Application. The Application will take various inputs like details of students, subjects and class rooms and teachers available, depending upon these inputs it will generate a possible time table, making optimal utilization of all resources in a way that will best suit any of constraints or college rules. List of subjects may include electives as well as core subjects. The case is similar to schools and other educational institutions. So our aim is to develop a general purpose which can efficiently generate optimal solutions
