Abstract: Training with use of mechatronic devices is an innovative rehabilitation method for patients with various locomotor dysfunction. High efficiency of training is noted in systems that combine a treadmill or orthosis with a body weight support system. Speed control is a limitation of such rehabilitation systems. In commercially available devices, the treadmill speed is constant or set by the therapist. Even better training results should be obtained for devices in which the speed of the treadmill will be automatically adjusted to the patient walking pace. This study presents a mechatronic device for locomotor training that uses an algorithm to adjust …the speed of the treadmill. This speed is controlled with use of a sensor that measures the rope inclination. The end of rope is fastened to the orthopaedic harness. Speed control is realized in such a way that ensures the smallest possible swing angle of the rope. A fuzzy controller was applied to adjust the treadmill speed. The drive system of the treadmill is equipped in a servodrive with PMSM motor and energy recovery module, which allows smooth speed control, limiting acceleration and minimizing electricity consumption. The presented solution was implemented in a real object and subjected to experimental tests. Show more

Abstract: This paper presents a multi-objective mathematical model for a flexible job shop scheduling problem (FJSSP) with fuzzy processing times, which is solved by a hybrid intelligent algorithm (HIA). This problem contains a combination of a classical job shop problem with parallel machines (JSPM) to provide flexibility in the production route. Despite the previous studies, the number of parallel machines is not pre-specified in this paper. This constraint with other ones (e.g., sequence-dependent setup times, reentrant workflows, and fuzzy variables) makes the given problem more complex. To solve such a multi-objective JSPM, Pareto-based optimization algorithms based on multi-objective meta-heuristics and multi-criteria …decision making (MCDM) methods are utilized. Then, different comparison metrics (e.g., quality, mean ideal distance, and rate of achievement simultaneously) are used. Also, this paper includes two major phases to provide a new model of the FJSSP and introduce a new proposed HIA for solving the presented model, respectively. This algorithm is a hybrid genetic algorithm with the SAW/TOPSIS method, namely HGASAW/HGATOPSIS. The comparative results indicate that HGASAW and HGATOPSIS outperform the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) to tackle the fuzzy multi-objective JSPM. Show more

Abstract: Inequalities are a useful method to investigate and compare topological indices of graphs relatively. A large collection of graph associated numerical descriptors have been used to examine the whole structure of networks. In these analysis, degree related topological indices have a significant position in theoretical chemistry and nanotechnology. Thus, the computation of degree related indices is one of the successful topic of research. Given a molecular graph H , the general Randić connectivity index is interpreted as R α ( H ) = ∑ ℛ ∈ E ( H ) ( …deg H ( a ) deg H ( b ) ) α , with α is a real quantity. Also a graph transformation of H provides a comparatively simpler isomorphic structure with an ease to work on different chemical properties. In this article, we determine the sharp bounds of general Randić index of numerous graph transformations, such that semi-total-point, semi-total-line, total and eight individual transformations H fgh , where f , g , h  ∈ {+ , -} of graphs by using combinatorial inequalities.

Abstract: Bit-string generator (BSG) is based on the hardness of known number theoretical problems, such as the discrete logarithm problem with the elliptic curve (ECDLP). Such type of generators will have good randomness and unpredictability properties as it is challenged to find a solution regarding this mathematical dilemma. Hash functions in turn play a remarkable role in many cryptographic tasks to accomplish different security levels. Hash-enhanced elliptic curve bit-string generator (HEECBSG) mechanism is proposed in this study based on the ECDLP and secure hash function. The cryptographic hash function is used to achieve integrity and security of the obtained bit-strings for …highly sensitive plain data. The main contribution of the proposed HEECBSG is transforming the x -coordinate of the elliptic curve points using a hash function H to generate bit-strings of any desirable length. The obtained pseudo-random bits are tested by the NIST test suite to analyze and verify its statistical and randomness properties. The resulted bit-string is utilized here for encrypting various medical images of the vital organs, i.e. the brain, bone, fetuses, and lungs. Then, extensive evaluation metrics have been applied to analyze the successful performance of the cipherimage, including key-space analysis, histogram analysis, correlation analysis, entropy analysis and sensitivity analysis. The results demonstrated that our proposed HEECBSG mechanism is feasible for achieving security and privacy purposes of the medical image transmission over unsecure communication networks. Show more

Abstract: Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide. Early diagnosis of heart disease can reduce this large number of deaths so that treatment can be carried out. Many decision-making systems have been developed, but they are too complex for medical professionals. To target these objectives, we develop an explainable neutrosophic clinical decision-making system for the timely diagnose of cardiovascular disease risk. We make our system transparent and easy to understand with the help of explainable artificial intelligence techniques so that medical professionals can easily adopt this system. Our system is taking thirty-five symptoms as input parameters, which are, gender, …age, genetic disposition, smoking, blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, body mass index, depression, unhealthy diet, metabolic disorder, physical inactivity, pre-eclampsia, rheumatoid arthritis, coffee consumption, pregnancy, rubella, drugs, tobacco, alcohol, heart defect, previous surgery/injury, thyroid, sleep apnea, atrial fibrillation, heart history, infection, homocysteine level, pericardial cysts, marfan syndrome, syphilis, inflammation, clots, cancer, and electrolyte imbalance and finds out the risk of coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, heart attack, heart arrhythmia, peripheral artery disease, aortic disease, pericardial disease, deep vein thrombosis, heart valve disease, and heart failure. There are five main modules of the system, which are neutrosophication, knowledge base, inference engine, de-neutrosophication, and explainability. To demonstrate the complete working of our system, we design an algorithm and calculates its time complexity. We also present a new de-neutrosophication formula, and give comparison of our the results with existing methods. Show more

Abstract: An information system (IS) is a database that expresses relationships between objects and attributes. An IS with decision attributes is said to be a decision information system (DIS). An incomplete real-valued decision information system (IRVDIS) is a DIS based on incomplete real-valued data. This paper studies three-way decision (3WD) for incomplete real-valued data and its application. In the first place, the distance between two objects on the basis of the conditional attribute set in an IRVDIS is constructed. In the next place, the fuzzy T cos -equivalence relation on the object set of an IRVDIS is received by means …of Gaussian kernel. After that, the decision-theoretic rough set model for an IRVDIS is presented. Furthermore, the 3WD method is proposed based on this model. Lastly, to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed method, an application of the proposed method is given. It is worth mentioning that levels of risk may be determined by thresholds that can be directly acquired according to risk preference of different decision-makers, as well as the decision rule for each decision class under different levels of risk is showed in tabular forms.

Abstract: In actual life, uncertain and inconsistent information exists widely. How to deal with the information so that it can be better applied is a problem that has to be solved. Neutrosophic soft sets can process uncertain and inconsistent information. Also, Dempster-Shafer evidence theory has the advantage of dealing with uncertain information, and it can synthesize uncertain information and deal with subjective judgments effectively. Therefore, this paper creatively combines the Dempster-Shafer evidence theory with the neutrosophic soft sets, and proposes a cosine similarity measure for multi-criteria group decision making. Different from the previous studies, the proposed similarity measure is utilized to …measure the similarity between two objects in the structure of neutrosophic soft set, rather than two neutrosophic soft sets. We also propose the objective degree and credibility degree which reflect the decision makers’ subjective preference based on the similarity measure. Then parameter weights are calculated by the objective degree. Additionally, based on credibility degree and parameter weights, we propose the modified score function, modified accuracy function, and modified certainty function, which can be employed to obtain partial order relation and make decisions. Later, we construct an aggregation algorithm for multi-criteria group decision making based on Dempster’s rule of combination and apply the algorithm to a case of medical diagnosis. Finally, by testing and comparing the algorithm, the results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can solve the multi-criteria group decision making problems effectively. Show more

It is an effective model to handle inconsistent information of periodic nature. In this research article, we discuss certain notions, including isomorphism, competition graph, minimal graph and competition number corresponding to generalized complex neutrosophic graphs. Further, we describe these concepts by several examples and present some of their properties. Moreover, we analyze that a competition graph corresponding to a generalized complex neutrosophic graph can be represented by an adjacency matrix with suitable real life examples.

Abstract: Internet is one of the most influential new communication technologies has influenced all aspects of human life. Extensive use of the Internet and the rapid growth of network services have increased network traffic and ultimately a slowdown in internet speeds around the world. Such traffic causes reduced network bandwidth, server response latency, and increased access time to web documents. Cache memory is used to improve CPU performance and reduce response time. Due to the cost and limited size of cache compared to other devices that store information, an alternative policy is used to select and extract a page to make …space for new pages when the cache is filled. Many algorithms have been introduced which performance depends on a high-speed web cache, but it is not well optimized. The general feature of most of them is that they are developed from the famous LRU and LFU designs and take advantage of both designs. In this research, a page replacement algorithm called FCPRA (Fuzzy Clustering based Page Replacement Algorithm) is presented, which is based on four features. When the cache space can’t respond to a request for a new page, it selects a page of the lowest priority cluster and the largest login order; then, removes it from the cache memory. The results show that FCPRA has a better hit rate with different data sets and can improve the cache memory performance compared to other algorithms. Show more

Abstract: The purpose of sentiment classification is to solve the problem of automatic judgment of sentiment tendency. In the sentiment classification task of text data (such as online reviews), the traditional deep learning model focuses on algorithm optimization, but ignores the characteristics of the imbalanced distribution of the number of samples in each classification, which will cause the classification performance of the model to decrease in practical applications. In this paper, the experiment is divided into two stages. In the first stage, samples of minority class in the sample distribution are used to train a sequence generative adversarial nets, so that …the sequence generative adversarial nets can learn the features of the samples of minority class in depth. In the second stage, the trained generator of sequence generative adversarial nets is used to generate false samples of minority class and mix them with the original samples to balance the sample distribution. After that, the mixed samples are input into the sentiment classification deep model to complete the model training. Experimental results show that the model has excellent classification performance in comparing a variety of deep learning models based on classic imbalanced learning methods in the sentiment classification task of hotel reviews.

Abstract: The evaluation for online shopping platform is the basis for further decision and policy taking. The collected individual opinion and evaluation information are often represented by some linguistic/preference vectors. Further aggregating those vector needs to simultaneously consider two contradictory factors: the original weights assigned and the inconsistencies involved which requires some new weights assigned. Around those weights allocation factors, to mitigate the negative effect of inconsistency in the collected information, we propose an integrated evaluation model. The model uses the scatter degree as a main indicator, and extends some weights allocation methods such as regular increasing monotone (RIM) quantifier based …weights allocation in a new environment, and applies the three sets expression based paradigm and formulation. The proposed model is able to simultaneously give emphasis on those input data with high consistency and to consider the preferences of decision makers. Some detailed evaluation processes and numerical examples are also provided for practitioners to refer to. Show more

Abstract: Violence detection is a challenging task in the computer vision domain. Violence detection framework depends upon the detection of crowd behaviour changes. Violence erupts due to disagreement of an idea, injustice or severe disagreement. The aim of any country is to maintain law and order and peace in the area. Violence detection thus becomes an important task for authorities to maintain peace. Traditional methods have existed for violence detection which are heavily dependent upon hand crafted features. The world is now transitioning in to Artificial Intelligence based techniques. Automatic feature extraction and its classification from images and videos is the …new norm in surveillance domain. Deep learning platform has provided us the platter on which non-linear features can be extracted, self-learnt and classified as per the appropriate tool. One such tool is the Convolutional Neural Networks, also known as ConvNets, which has the ability to automatically extract features and classify them in to their respective domain. Till date there is no survey of deciphering violence behaviour techniques using ConvNets. We hope that this survey becomes an exclusive baseline for future violence detection and analysis in the deep learning domain. Show more

Abstract: This study presents a fuzzy brain emotional learning classifier (FBELC), combined with a modified particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm, that allows a network to automatically determine the optimum values for a reward signal and a classification threshold. The designed FBELC model imitates the brain decision process including the emotion information. To verify the predictive performance, a novel fitness function based on the accuracy of the training and cross-validation datasets is used for a PSO algorithm. This PSO-FBELC model is used to diagnose breast tumors and heart diseases. A comparison of simulations using the proposed PSO-FBELC with other processes shows that …the proposed model performs better in terms of recognition accuracy. Show more

Abstract: Malaria is one of the three major diseases with the highest mortality worldwide and can turn fatal if not taken seriously. The key to surviving this disease is its early diagnosis. However, manual diagnosis is time consuming and tedious due to the large amount of image data. Generally, computer-aided diagnosis can effectively improve doctors’ perception and accuracy. This paper presents a medical diagnosis method powered by convolutional neural network (CNN) to extract features from images and improve early detection of malaria. The image sharpening and histogram equalization method are used aiming at enlarging the difference between parasitized regions and other …area. Dropout technology is employed in every convolutional layer to reduce overfitting in the network, which is proved to be effective. The proposed CNN model achieves a significant performance with the best classification accuracy of 99.98%. Moreover, this paper compares the proposed model with the pretrained CNNs and other traditional algorithms. The results indicate the proposed model can achieve state-of-the-art performance from multiple metrics. In general, the novelty of this work is the reduction of the CNN structure to only five layers, thereby greatly reducing the running time and the number of parameters, which is demonstrated in the experiments. Furthermore, the proposed model can assist clinicians to accurately diagnose the malaria disease. Show more

Abstract: The product form evolutionary design based on multi-objective optimization can satisfy the complex emotional needs of consumers for product form, but most relevant literatures mainly focus on single-objective optimization or convert multiple-objective optimization into the single objective by weighting method. In order to explore the optimal product form design, we propose a hybrid product form design method based on back propagation neural networks (BP-NN) and non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) algorithms from the perspective of multi-objective optimization. First, the product form is deconstructed and encoded by morphological analysis method, and then the semantic difference method is used to enable consumers …to evaluate product samples under a series of perceptual image vocabularies. Then, the nonlinear complex functional relation between the consumers’ perceptual image and the morphological elements is fitted with the BP-NN. Finally, the trained BP-NN is embedded into the NSGA-II multi-objective evolutionary algorithm to derive the Pareto optimal solution. Based on the hybrid BP-NN and NSGA-II algorithms, a multi-objective optimization based product form evolutionary design system is developed with the electric motorcycle as a case. The system is proved to be feasible and effective, providing theoretical reference and method guidance for the multi-image product form design. Show more

Abstract: The Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) is a recent meta-heuristic that can be explored in global optimization problems. This paper proposes a new parameter adjustment mechanism that influences the probability of the food recognition process in the whale algorithm. The adjustment is performed using a fuzzy inference system that uses the current iteration number as input information. Our simulation results are compared with other meta-heuristics such as the conventional version of WOA, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE). All algorithms are used to optimize ten test functions (Sphere, Schwefel 2.22, Quartic, Rosenbrock, Ackley, Rastrigin, Penalty 1, Schwefel 2.21, Six …hump camel back and Shekel 1) in order to obtain their respective optimal values for be used as criteria for analysis and comparison. The results of the simulations show that the proposed fuzzy inference system improves the convergence of WOA and also is competitive in relation to the other algorithms, i.e., classical WOA, PSO and DE.

Abstract: Knowledge reduction is one of critical problems in data mining and information processing. It can simplify the structure of the lattice during the construction of fuzzy-crisp concept lattice. In terms of fuzzy-crisp concept, we develop an order-class matrix to represent extents and intents of concepts, respectively. In order to improve the computing efficiency, it is necessary to reduce the size of lattices as much as possible. Therefore the judgement theorem of meet-irreducible elements is proposed. To deal with attribute reductions, we develop a discernibility Boolean matrix in formal fuzzy contexts by preserving extents of meet-irreducible elements via order-class matrix. A …heuristic attribute-reduction algorithm is proposed. Then we extend the proposed model to consistent formal fuzzy decision contexts. Our methods present a new framework for knowledge reduction in formal fuzzy contexts. Show more

Abstract: With the development of the urban industry in recent years, air pollution in areas such as factories and streets has become more and more serious. Air quality problems directly affect the normal lives of residents. Effectively predicting the future air condition in the area through relevant historical data has high application value for early warning of this area. Through the study of the previous monitoring data, it is found that the pollutant data of adjacent monitoring stations are correlated in more periods. Therefore, this paper proposes a hybrid model based on CNN and Bi-LSTM, using CNN to synthesize multiple adjacent …stations with strong correlations to extract spatial features between data, and using Bi-LSTM to extract features in the time dimension to finally achieve pollutant concentration prediction. Using the historical data of 40 monitoring stations in different locations of Fushun city to conduct research. By comparing with the traditional prediction model, the results prove that the model proposed in this paper has higher accuracy and stronger robustness. Show more

Abstract: This paper proposes a Hilbert stereo reconstruction algorithm based on depth feature and stereo matching to solve the problem of occlusive region matching errors, namely, the Hilbert stereo network. The traditional stereo network pays more attention to disparity itself, leading to the inaccuracy of disparity estimation. Our design network studies the effective disparity matching and refinement through reconstruction representation of Hilbert’s disparity coefficient. Since the Hilbert coefficient is not affected by the occlusion and texture in the image, stereo disparity matching can conducted effectively. Our network includes three sub-modules, namely, depth feature representation, Hilbert cost volume fusion, and Hilbert refinement …reconstruction. Separately, texture features of different depth levels of the image were extracted through Hilbert filtering operation. Next, stereoscopic disparity fusion was performed, and then Hilbert designed to refine the difference regression stereo matching solution was used. Based on the end-to-end design, the structure is refined by combining the depth feature extraction module and Hilbert coefficient disparity. Finally, the Hilbert stereo matching algorithm achieves excellent performance on standard big data set and is compared with other advanced stereo networks. Experiments show that our network has high accuracy and high performance. Show more
