Abstract: In daily life, the decision making problem is a complicated work related to uncertainties and vagueness. To overcome this vagueness and uncertainties, many fuzzy sets and theories have been presented by different scholars and researchers. EDA𝒮 (Evaluation based on distance from average solution) method plays a major role in decision-making problems. Especially, when multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problems have more conflicting attribute. In this paper, a new approach known as Spherical fuzzy rough-EDA𝒮 (SFR-EDA𝒮) method is used to handle these uncertainties in the MAGDM problem. The aggregation operators have the ability to combine different sources of information, which plays an …essential role in decision making (DM) problem. Keeping in view the increasing complexity of the DM problem, it will be useful to combine the aggregation operators with the fuzzy sets in solving DM problem. Therefore, an aggregation operator known as SFR-EDA𝒮 method is utilized. For this propounded some new averaging and geometric aggregation is investigated. Moreover, the essential and desirable properties with some particular cases are deliberated and discussed detail. To evaluate the emergency program, a MAGDM approach is used based on the new introduced operators. Later on, the viability and applicability the proposed method is certified by a detailed analysis with the other existing approaches. Show more

Abstract: Counterfeit drugs are without a doubt becoming a greater hazard to consumers and the pharmaceutical sector. As a result, real-time visibility of drug manufacturing and management is required. The proposed system uses Ethereum blockchain as the main technology. The primary advantage of blockchain technology is that the transactions are maintained in immutable digital ledger format and it may be read easily without jeopardizing the users’ security and privacy. In our proposed system, the admin validates and adds the manufacturers. The manufacturer after registering and logging in can perform tasks like adding the drug and seller list. The seller can place …order to the manufacturer which the manufacturer can accept or reject. The seller can update status of order of accepted orders to delivered. The customer can view the order details by entering the serial number on the drug package. Any transaction or exchange that occurs in the network is recorded in the chain. It functions similarly to other networks, but blockchain technology is distinguished by the fact that no data can be removed or altered by anyone in the network. No changes to the network can be made unless it has been validated by all of the network’s authorized users. All the information stored can be read by anybody so to incorporate more security, AES has been used to store data in the blockchain. The use of AES encryption technique distinguishes this system from all the existing implementations. Thus, this makes it easy to trace to the exact point in the supply chain and detect any counterfeit drugs in movement. As an extension to the drug counterfeit prevention system a Drug Recommendation System is also performed using the ensemble model with a combination of Random Forest and Logistic Regression for sentiment analysis training. Furthermore, when compared to the existing Linear SVM model, which has an accuracy of 90.39%, the suggested model has the best accuracy of 93.31%. Using the obtained sentiment for each drug, the drug is predicted accurately for the specified medical condition. Show more

Abstract: In order to improve the comprehensive performance of adaptive cruise control system in the car-following process and take the safety into account, an improved model predictive control algorithm considering multi-performance objective optimization is designed. In the prediction model part, the grey Verhulst model with saturation state is introduced to predict the acceleration disturbance of the preceding vehicle, and the particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to estimate the parameters, which is then applied to the car following model. The control problem is transformed into a quadratic programming problem with multiple constraints through multi-objective quadratic performance index, and the vector constraint …management method is introduced to solve the problem of no feasible solution caused by hard constraints. The emergency acceleration, deceleration and stable following are simulated. Finally, the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Cycle is co-simulated.

Abstract: In real life, people often need to aggregate some multi criteria fuzzy information and then make reasonable and effective decisions. The distance measure in intuitionistic fuzzy set (IFS) space is an important tool to deal with multi criteria information fuzzy decision making problems. Motivated by these reasons, an intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS multi criteria decision-making method is proposed based on distance measure represented by centroid coordinates. Firstly, some existing distance measures in IFS space are summarized, and some of existing shortcomings are discussed. Secondly, the concept of hesitation factor is proposed by using the centroid coordinate representation of hesitation region, and …then a new distance measure between two intuitionistic fuzzy numbers is defined. It is proved that the distance measure satisfies the traditional distance axioms. Then, an intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method based on the proposed distance measure is developed. Finally, an illustrative example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Also, the superiority and advantages of the method are shown via comparative analysis and discussion. Show more

Abstract: The clustering approach can improve wireless sensor network parameters such as lifetime enhancement, load balancing, reliable communication, and fault tolerance. The Cluster head in the cluster is responsible for reliable data transmission between node and sink or base station. Selecting suitable cluster heads and establishing an optimal path for data transmission is the main objective of this research work. Fuzzy-based clustering based on cluster head selection, optimized routing using particle swarm optimization (PSO), adaptive whale optimization algorithm (AWOA) are presented in this research work. Fuzzy logic considers the parameters like the distance between base station to node, node centrality, node …degree, and residual energy for cluster head selection. The optimization model obtains an optimized node for routing from the selected cluster heads. In terms of network lifetime, delay, energy consumption, packet delivery ratio, and energy efficiency, simulation analysis of the proposed model is compared to conventional routing algorithms such as bacteria foraging optimization (BFO), Tree-based data gathering (TBDG) algorithm, Immune inspired routing (IIR), Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH), and Hybrid Energy-Efficient Distributed (HEED) protocol. The results demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms existing approaches in terms of network lifetime and energy efficiency. Show more

Abstract: Distributed generators (DG) with inverter based on renewable sources are generally utilized in microgrids. Most of these sources work in droop control mode to effectively share the load. Higher droop is chosen on these systems to recover dynamic power sharing. This paper proposes a Hybrid Control Technique for Small Signal Stability Analysis for Microgrids under Uncertainty. The proposed topology is to recover the capacity of power system is used to restore the normal operating condition. The proposed hybrid technique is the combination of chaotic Henry gas solubility optimization (CHGSO) and recalling-enhanced recurrent neural network (RENNN) and therefore called the CHGSO-RENNN …technique. The proposed technique is used to optimally predict the internal and external current loop control parameters in light and the variety of power and current parameters. The small stability is revealed through the working conditions of the whole machine. The overall stability of the small signal is investigated in a linear model so that both source and load are used to characterize the state matrix of the frame that is used for eigenvalue examination. The PI controller gain parameters are optimally tuned and the controller offers reliable frame operation. The proposed technique is performed on MATLAB/Simulink work platform. Show more
