A novel order-separated generalized feedforward design for motion control in energy-efficient electrohydraulic system with proportional and integral feedback.

Existing feedforward, or FF, controllers are based on differentially flat models. For double-acting single-rod cylinders, more compact than the double-rod ones, flat models could be constructed either under an incompressible-flow assumption for low-pressure, slow-response applications or for a matched valve-cylinder combination. Contrasting the existing models tackling only a single nonlinear aspect like valve leakage, oil compressibility or friction, a novel FF controller, generalized for different types of valve-cylinder-pump combinations, has been developed here.

Opinion classification at subtopic level from COVID vaccination-related tweets.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is a contiguous disease which affected a large volume of population with a high mortality rate across the globe. For dealing with the recent spread of COVID-19, one of the prime measures was to vaccinate people in full extent. People across the globe have diverse opinion regarding the vaccination process, its side effect and effectiveness.

Biometric identification of Black Bengal goat: unique iris pattern matching system vs deep learning approach.

Objective: Iris pattern recognition system is well developed and practiced in human, however, there is a scarcity of information on application of iris recognition system in animals at the field conditions where the major challenge is to capture a high-quality iris image from a constantly moving non-cooperative animal even when restrained properly. The aim of the study was to validate and identify Black Bengal goat biometrically to improve animal management in its traceability system.

Methods: Forty-nine healthy, disease free, 3 months±6 days old female Black Bengal goats were randomly selected at the farmer's field.

Performance evolution of different controllers for frequency regulation of a hybrid energy power system employing chaotic crow search algorithm.

The work described herein compares the performance of different optimized controllers, viz. proportional-integral, proportional-integral-derivative (PID) with filter, two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF)-PID, 3DOF-PID, fractional-order-PID, cascade PI-PID, tilt-integral-derivative (TID), and cascade-TID (CC-TID) controllers in frequency regulation of a hybrid energy distributed power system (HEDPS). The HEDPS is integrated with a multi-unit hydrothermal power plant for ensuring stable power supply.

GFNB: Gini index-based Fuzzy Naive Bayes and blast cell segmentation for leukemia detection using multi-cell blood smear images.

The blood cell counting and classification ensures the evaluation and diagnosis of a number of diseases. The analysis of white blood cells (WBCs) permits us to detect the acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), a type of blood cancer that causes fatality when untreated. At present, the morphological analysis of blood cells is performed manually by skilled operators, which holds numerous drawbacks.

Nucleus and cytoplasm-based segmentation and actor-critic neural network for acute lymphocytic leukaemia detection in single cell blood smear images.

Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), which is due to the malfunctioning in the bone marrow, is common among people all over the world. The haematologist suffers a lot to discriminate the presence of leukaemia in the patients using the blood smears. To overcome the inaccuracy and reliability issues, this paper proposes an automatic method of leukaemia detection, named chronological Sine Cosine Algorithm-based actor-critic neural network (Chrono-SCA-ACNN).

Mutual Information based hybrid model and deep learning for Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia detection in single cell blood smear images.

Background And Objective: Due to the development in digital microscopic imaging, image processing and classification has become an interesting area for diagnostic research. Various techniques are available in the literature for the detection of Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia from the single cell blood smear images. The purpose of this work is to develop an effective method for leukemia detection.

Performance of a modified magnetostrictive energy harvester in mechanical vibration.

The field of harvesting electrical energy from ambient vibration has grown with rapid interest. Perpetual source of electrical energy can be extracted from structural vibrations. The paper deals with a technology for scavenging electricity from vibration using iron-gallium alloy.

An improved low-voltage ride-through performance of DFIG based wind plant using stator dynamic composite fault current limiter.

In this paper, an enhanced low-voltage ride-through (LVRT) performance of a grid connected doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) has been presented with the usage of stator dynamic composite fault current limiter (SDCFCL). This protection circuit comprises of a suitable series resistor-inductor combination and parallel bidirectional semiconductor switch. The SDCFCL facilitates double benefits such as reduction of rotor induced open circuit voltage due to increased value of stator total inductance and concurrent increase of rotor impedance.

Brightness-preserving fuzzy contrast enhancement scheme for the detection and classification of diabetic retinopathy disease.

The contrast enhancement of retinal image plays a vital role for the detection of microaneurysms (MAs), which are an early sign of diabetic retinopathy disease. A retinal image contrast enhancement method has been presented to improve the MA detection technique. The success rate on low-contrast noisy retinal image analysis shows the importance of the proposed method.

Effect of Watermarking on Diagnostic Preservation of Atherosclerotic Ultrasound Video in Stroke Telemedicine.

Embedding of diagnostic and health care information requires secure encryption and watermarking. This research paper presents a comprehensive study for the behavior of some well established watermarking algorithms in frequency domain for the preservation of stroke-based diagnostic parameters. Two different sets of watermarking algorithms namely: two correlation-based (binary logo hiding) and two singular value decomposition (SVD)-based (gray logo hiding) watermarking algorithms are used for embedding ownership logo.
