S-Visibility Problem In Vlsi Chip Design, Marzieh Eskandari, Mahdieh Yeganeh
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper, a new version of very large scale integration (VLSI) layouts compaction problem is considered. Bar visibility graph (BVG) is a simple geometric model for VLSI chip design and layout problems. In all previous works, vertical bars or other chip components in the plane model gates, as well as edges, are modeled by horizontal visibilities between bars. In this study, for a given set of vertical bars, the edges can be modeled with orthogonal paths known as staircases. Therefore, we consider a new version of bar visibility graphs (BsVG). We then present an algorithm to solve the s-visibility …

A Machine Learning Approach For Enhancing Security And Quality Of Service Of Optical Burst Switching Networks, Adel Dabash A. Rajab
A Machine Learning Approach For Enhancing Security And Quality Of Service Of Optical Burst Switching Networks, Adel Dabash A. Rajab
Theses and Dissertations
The Optical Bust Switching (OBS) network has become one of the most promising switching technologies for building the next-generation of internet backbone infrastructure. However, OBS networks still face a number of security and Quality of Service (QoS) challenges, particularly from Burst Header Packet (BHP) flooding attacks. In OBS, a core switch handles requests, reserving one of the unoccupied channels for incoming data bursts (DB) through BHP. An attacker can exploit this fact and send malicious BHP without the corresponding DB. If unresolved, threats such as BHP flooding attacks can result in low bandwidth utilization, limited network performance, high burst loss …

Data Masking, Encryption, And Their Effect On Classification Performance: Trade-Offs Between Data Security And Utility, Juan C. Asenjo
CCAC Theses and Dissertations
As data mining increasingly shapes organizational decision-making, the quality of its results must be questioned to ensure trust in the technology. Inaccuracies can mislead decision-makers and cause costly mistakes. With more data collected for analytical purposes, privacy is also a major concern. Data security policies and regulations are increasingly put in place to manage risks, but these policies and regulations often employ technologies that substitute and/or suppress sensitive details contained in the data sets being mined. Data masking and substitution and/or data encryption and suppression of sensitive attributes from data sets can limit access to important details. It is believed …
An Online Approach For Feature Selection For Classification In Big Data, Nasrin Banu Nazar, Radha Senthilkumar
An Online Approach For Feature Selection For Classification In Big Data, Nasrin Banu Nazar, Radha Senthilkumar
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Feature selection (FS), also known as attribute selection, is a process of selection of a subset of relevant features used in model construction. This process or method improves the classification accuracy by removing irrelevant and noisy features. FS is implemented using either batch learning or online learning. Currently, the FS methods are executed in batch learning. Nevertheless, these techniques take longer execution time and require larger storage space to process the entire dataset. Due to the lack of scalability, the batch learning process cannot be used for large data. In the present study, a scalable efficient Online Feature Selection (OFS) …

A novel design of an all-optical switch is proposed based on a nonlinear photonic crystal Mach-Zehnder interferometer (PC-MZI) to get the maximum switching speed and the minimum consuming power. As far as we know, this is the first study using a nonlinear polymer in one of the PC-MZI arms for realizing the switching phenomenon. All used components, such as bends, waveguides, and splitters, were individually optimized. Finite difference time domain and plane wave expansion methods were also utilized for the simulation of light propagation in the proposed structures.
A Novel Approach For Extracting Ideal Exemplars By Clustering For Massivetime-Ordered Datasets, Ömer Faruk Ertuğrul
A Novel Approach For Extracting Ideal Exemplars By Clustering For Massivetime-Ordered Datasets, Ömer Faruk Ertuğrul
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The number and length of massive datasets have increased day by day and this yields more complex machine learning stages due to the high computational costs. To decrease the computational cost many methods were proposed in the literature such as data condensing, feature selection, and filtering. Although clustering methods are generally employed to divide samples into groups, another way of data condensing is by determining ideal exemplars (or prototypes), which can be used instead of the whole dataset. In this study, first the efficiency of traditional data condensing by clustering approach was confirmed according to obtained accuracies and condensing ratios …

Nonlinear Model Predictive Control Based On Fuzzy Wavelet Neural Network And Chaos Optimization, Mehrnoush Davanipour, Hanieh Asadipooya
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this paper a combined controller is proposed for nonlinear dynamical systems. The controller is constructed by a fuzzy wavelet network and nonlinear model predictive control. Chaotic optimization, which is fast and robust, is applied to generate optimized controlled input in nonlinear model predictive control. The ability of the fuzzy wavelet neural network and the proposed controller is shown by simulation. It is illustrated that the proposed method is able to increase the speed of tracking in addition to having very little steady state error. Using chaotic optimization makes the controller robust in the presence of noise.

Robust Control For Line-Of-Sight Stabilization Of A Two-Axis Gimbal System, Mehmet Baskin, Mehmet Kemal Leblebi̇ci̇oğlu
Robust Control For Line-Of-Sight Stabilization Of A Two-Axis Gimbal System, Mehmet Baskin, Mehmet Kemal Leblebi̇ci̇oğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Line-of-sight stabilization against various disturbances is an essential property of gimbaled imaging systems mounted on mobile platforms. In recent years, the importance of target detection from higher distances has increased. This has raised the need for better stabilization performance. For that reason, stabilization loops are designed such that they have higher gains and larger bandwidths. As these are required for good disturbance attenuation, sufficient loop stability is also needed. However, model uncertainties around structural resonances impose strict restrictions on sufficient loop stability. Therefore, to satisfy high stabilization performance in the presence of model uncertainties, robust control methods are required. In …

These devices are computer printers that use a slat with hundreds of LEDs arranged in several …
Fractional-Order Controller Design In Frequency Domain Using An Improved Nonlinear Adaptive Seeker Optimization Algorithm, Mano Ranjan Kumar, Vishwa Deepak, Subhojit Ghosh
Fractional-Order Controller Design In Frequency Domain Using An Improved Nonlinear Adaptive Seeker Optimization Algorithm, Mano Ranjan Kumar, Vishwa Deepak, Subhojit Ghosh
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Two nonlinear adaptive versions of the conventional seeker optimization algorithm (SOA) have been proposed for the design of fractional-order controllers using frequency domain specifications. The highly nonlinear and undetermined nature of equations resulting from controller design specifications rules out obtaining a closed-form solution. In this regard, the controller design task has been formulated as an optimization problem and solved using modified variants of the SOA. With the nonlinear adaptation of tuning parameters, the proposed variants of the SOA increase the probability of finding global optima along with improved convergence speed. This has been achieved by incorporating exponential weighting and chaotic …
A Simple Approach To Extract The Unknown Parameters Of Pv Modules, Ahmed Hussein
A Simple Approach To Extract The Unknown Parameters Of Pv Modules, Ahmed Hussein
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
A simple and accurate technique to compute essential parameters needed for electrical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) modules is proposed. A single-diode model of PV modules, including those with series and shunt resistances, is considered accurate and simple. However, PV module datasheets provided by manufacturers provide current-voltage ($I$-$V)$ characteristics as well as the values of selected parameters at standard test conditions (STC), i.e. solar radiation of 1000 W/m$^{2}$, air temperature of 25 $^{\circ}$C, and air mass AM = 1.5. Consequently, important parameters such as series resistance ($R_{s})$, shunt resistance ($R_{sh})$, photocurrent ($I_{ph})$, and diode reverse-saturation current ($I_{o})$ are not provided by …

Method Of Singular Integral Equations In Diffraction By Semi-Infinite Grating: $H$-Polarization Case, Mstislav Kaliberda, Leonid Lytvynenko, Sergey Pogarsky
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Diffraction of the $H$-polarized electromagnetic wave by a semi-infinite strip grating is considered. The scattered field is represented as a superposition of the field induced by the currents on the strips of an infinite periodic grating and the field induced by the correction current excited due to end of the grating. Singular integral equations with additional conditions for infinite and semi-infinite periodic gratings are obtained. The current on the strips and spectral function of scattered field are expressed in terms of the solution of these equations. Numerical results for the near and far fields distribution are represented.
A Novel Empirical Sir-To-Cqi Mapping Rule For Dc-Hsdpa Systems, Çeti̇n Kurnaz, Begüm Korunur Engi̇z, Murat Oğuz Esenalp
A Novel Empirical Sir-To-Cqi Mapping Rule For Dc-Hsdpa Systems, Çeti̇n Kurnaz, Begüm Korunur Engi̇z, Murat Oğuz Esenalp
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This study aims to determine the mapping rule for signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) to channel quality indicator (CQI) based on DC-HSDPA real field measurements. The measurements were performed using the TEMS Investigation Tool at 85 different propagation mediums. The measurement results showed that the SIR-to-CQI mapping methods in the literature were insufficient to characterize actual radio environments; thus, proposal of a new empirical SIR-to-CQI mapping rule was aimed. This rule provides substantially better performance than the existing methods, and with this rule CQI can be generated from SIR with an accuracy of around 90% for DC-HSDPA systems.
A Hardware One-Time Pad Prototype Generator For Localising Cloud Security, Jonathan Blackledge, Paul Tobin, Lee Tobin, Mick Mckeever
A Hardware One-Time Pad Prototype Generator For Localising Cloud Security, Jonathan Blackledge, Paul Tobin, Lee Tobin, Mick Mckeever
Conference papers
Abstract: In this paper, we examine a system for encrypting data before storing in the Cloud. Adopting this system gives excellent security to stored data and complete control for accessing data by the client at different locations. The motivation for developing this personal encryption came about because of poor Cloud security and doubts over the safety of public encryption algorithms which might contain backdoors. However, side-channel attacks and other unwanted third-party interventions in Cloud security, probably contribute more to the poor security record history. These factors led to the development of a prototype for personalising security locally which defeats cryptanalysis. …
Application Of Artificial Intelligence For Detecting Computing Derived Viruses, Jonathan Blackledge, Omotayo Asiru, Moses Dlamini
Application Of Artificial Intelligence For Detecting Computing Derived Viruses, Jonathan Blackledge, Omotayo Asiru, Moses Dlamini
Conference papers
Computer viruses have become complex and operates in a stealth mode to avoid detection. New viruses are argued to be created each and every day. However, most of these supposedly ‘new’ viruses are not completely new. Most of the supposedly ‘new’ viruses are not necessarily created from scratch with completely new (something novel that has never been seen before) mechanisms. For example, most of these viruses just change their form and signatures to avoid detection. But their operation and the way they infect files and systems is still the same. Hence, such viruses cannot be argued to be new. In …

Performance Comparison Of Binarized Neural Network With Convolutional Neural Network, Lopamudra Baruah
Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports
Deep learning is a trending topic widely studied by researchers due to increase in the abundance of data and getting meaningful results with them. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) is one of the most popular architectures used in deep learning. Binarized Neural Network (BNN) is also a neural network which consists of binary weights and activations. Neural Networks has large number of parameters and overfitting is a common problem to these networks. To overcome the overfitting problem, dropout is a solution. Randomly dropping some neurons along with its connections helps to prevent co-adaptations which finally help in reducing overfitting. Many researchers …
Guaranteed Rendezvous For Cognitive Radio Networks Based On Cycle Length, Li Gou
Guaranteed Rendezvous For Cognitive Radio Networks Based On Cycle Length, Li Gou
Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports
Rendezvous is a fundamental process establishing a communication link on common channel between a pair of nodes in the cognitive radio networks. How to reach rendezvous efficiently and effectively is still an open problem. In this work, we propose a guaranteed cycle lengths based rendezvous (CLR) algorithm for cognitive radio networks. When the cycle lengths of the two nodes are coprime, the rendezvous is guaranteed within one rendezvous period considering the time skew between the two nodes. When Ti and Tj are not coprime, i.e., Ti=Tj, the deadlock checking and node IDs are combined …

High Performance Multiview Video Coding, Caoyang Jiang
Dissertations, Master's Theses and Master's Reports
Following the standardization of the latest video coding standard High Efficiency Video Coding in 2013, in 2014, multiview extension of HEVC (MV-HEVC) was published and brought significantly better compression performance of around 50% for multiview and 3D videos compared to multiple independent single-view HEVC coding. However, the extremely high computational complexity of MV-HEVC demands significant optimization of the encoder. To tackle this problem, this work investigates the possibilities of using modern parallel computing platforms and tools such as single-instruction-multiple-data (SIMD) instructions, multi-core CPU, massively parallel GPU, and computer cluster to significantly enhance the MVC encoder performance. The aforementioned computing tools …
