Abstract: Gait analysis is a widely used technique for passive human identification and tracking, with potential applications in security and surveillance systems. However, existing gait recognition methods face challenges in handling changing angles and uncertain features. In this paper, we propose a novel gait recognition approach that leverages real-time spatio-temporal gait features, including step length, gait cycle, height, cadence, swing ratio, and foot length. We apply the Extreme Learning Machines (ELM) algorithm for classification, which has been shown to be effective in various applications due to its fast-learning speed and good generalization performance. To further enhance the recognition rate, we introduce …an evolutionary BAT-optimized ELM algorithm that addresses the instability issue in ELM. The proposed BAT-ELM algorithm can optimize the hidden nodes and weights of ELM, which leads to improved efficiency in recognizing gait from multiple view angles ranging from 0° to 180°. Our comprehensive analysis of the proposed approach indicates that it outperforms other reported algorithms in terms of recognition rate and efficiency. Our work demonstrates the effectiveness of combining real-time spatio-temporal gait features with the BAT-ELM algorithm for gait recognition. The proposed approach has potential applications in various fields, including security and surveillance systems, healthcare, and robotics. Our findings highlight the importance of leveraging evolutionary algorithms to optimize machine learning models and achieve better performance in complex recognition tasks. Show more

Abstract: The ability, interest, and prior accomplishments of students with varying proficiency levels all impact how they learn English. Exact validation is essential for facilitating efficient evaluation and training models. The research’s innovative significance resides in incorporating personal attributes, progressive appraisal, and Fuzzy Logic-based appraisal in English language learning. The PA2M model, which addresses the shortcomings of existing models, offers a thorough and accurate assessment, enabling personalized recommendations and enhanced teaching tactics for students with varied skill levels. This research proposes the Fuzzy Logic System (FLS)-based Persistent Appraisal Assessment Model (PA2M). Based on the students’ evolving performance and accumulated data, this …model evaluates the students’ English learning capabilities. The model assesses the student’s ability using fuzzification approaches to reduce variations in appraisal verification by linking personal attributes with performance. Mamdani FIS offers a clear and thorough evaluation of student’s English learning capacity within the framework of the appraisal methodology. The inputs are updated utilizing performance and accumulated ability data to improve validation consistently and reduce converge errors. During the fuzzification process, pre-convergence from unavailable appraisal sequences is eliminated. The PA2M approach determines precise improvements and evaluations depending on student ability by merging prior and current data. Several appraisal validations and verifications result in clear fresh suggestions. According to experimental data, the suggested model enhances 9.79% of recommendation rates, 8.79% of appraisal verification, 8.25% of convergence factor, 12.56% error ratio, and verification time with 8.77% over a range of inputs. The PA2M model provides a fresh and useful way to evaluate English learning potential, filling in some gaps in the body of knowledge and practice. Show more

Abstract: Foreign objects identification in the distribution network is an important link in the security of electric power, and is of great significance to the normal transportation of electric power. At present, a lot of equipment in the distribution network is in the open air environment, facing a large number of foreign interference. These foreign objects not only bring potential safety hazards to the distribution network, but also easily lead to short circuit, causing power supply difficulties within the region. Therefore, the research first constructs an optimized triplet feature learning model. On this basis, the HOG-SVM depth feature recognition model is …proposed. In HOG-SVM, AM is introduced to improve recognition accuracy. In addition, the research enhances the night vision ability of the model by standardizing the features in the image region block. The results show that the AP of the model is stable at more than 90.54%, the average FPR is 2.21%, and the average FNR is 3.17% . The performance of HOG-SVM is significantly better than that of traditional SVM. It verifies the contribution of this research in the field of foreign object recognition and application value in ensuring the security of distribution network. Show more

Abstract: Reliable and accurate short-term forecasting of residential load plays an important role in DSM. However, the high uncertainty inherent in single-user loads makes them difficult to forecast accurately. Various traditional methods have been used to address the problem of residential load forecasting. A single load forecast model in the traditional method does not allow for comprehensive learning of data characteristics for residential loads, and utilizing RNNs faces the problem of long-term memory with vanishing or exploding gradients in backpropagation. Therefore, a gated GRU combined model based on multi-objective optimization is proposed to improve the short-term residential load forecasting accuracy in …this paper. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness, GRUCC-MOP is first experimentally tested with the unimproved model to verify the model performance and forecasting effectiveness. Secondly the method is evaluated experimentally with other excellent forecasting methods: models such as DBN, LSTM, GRU, EMD-DBN and EMD-MODBN. By comparing simulation experiments, the proposed GRU combined model can get better results in terms of MAPE on January, April, July, and November load data, so this proposed method has better performance than other research methods in short-term residential load forecasting.

Abstract: An improved Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm, named IACO, is proposed to address the inherent limitation of slow convergence, susceptibility to local optima and excessive number of inflection in traditional ACO when solving path planning problems. To this end, firstly, the search direction number is expanded from 4 or 8 into 32; Secondly, the distance heuristic information is replaced by an area heuristic function, which deviated from the traditional approach that only considers pheromone information between two points; Then, the influence of path angle and number of turns is taken into account in the local pheromone update. Additionally, a reward …and punishment mechanism is employed in the global pheromone update to adjust the pheromone concentrations of different paths; Furthermore, an adaptive update strategy for pheromone volatility factor adaptive is proposed to expand the search range of the algorithm. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted under various scenarios to verify the superiority and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Show more

Abstract: NLP, or natural language processing, is a subfield of AI that aims to equip computers with the ability to understand and analyze human language. Sentiment analysis is a widely used application of NLP, particularly for examining attitudes expressed in online conversations. Nevertheless, many social media comments are written in languages that are not native to the authors, making sentiment analysis more difficult, especially for languages with limited resources, such as Tamil. To tackle this issue, a code-mixed and sentiment-annotated corpus in Tamil and English was created. This article will explain how the corpus was established, including the process of data …collection and the assignment of polarities. The article will also explore the agreement between annotators and the results of sentiment analysis performed on the corpus. This work signifies various performance metrics such as precision, recall, support, and F1-score for the transformer-based model such as BERT, RoBerta, and XLM-RoBerta. Among the various models, XLM-Robert shows slightly significant positive results on the code-mixed corpus when compared to the state of art models. Show more

Abstract: The conventional approaches to constructing Prediction Intervals (PIs) always follow the principle of ‘high coverage and narrow width’. However, the deviation information has been largely neglected, making the PIs unsatisfactory. For high-risk forecasting tasks, the cost of forecast failure may be prohibitive. To address this, this work introduces a multi-objective loss function that includes Prediction Interval Accumulation Deviation (PIAD) within the Lower Upper Bound Estimation (LUBE) framework. The proposed model can achieve the goal of ‘high coverage, narrow width, and small bias’ in PIs, thus minimizing costs even in cases of prediction failure. A salient feature of the LUBE framework …is its ability to discern uncertainty without explicit uncertainty labels, where the data uncertainty and model uncertainty are learned by Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and a model ensemble, respectively. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated through its application to the prediction of carbon prices in China. Compared with conventional uncertainty quantification methods, the improved interval optimization method can achieve narrower PI widths. Show more

Abstract: To address this storage issue, we propose a Content-Aware Deduplication Clustering Analysis for Cloud Storage Optimization (CADC-FPRLE) based on a file partitioning running length encoder. At first, preprocessing was done by indexing, counting terms, cleansing, and tokenizing. Further multi-objective clustering points are analysed based on the bisecting divisible partition block, which divides a set of documents. The count terms are filtered from the divisible blocks and make up the count terms content block. Using Content-Aware Multi-Hash Ensemble Clustering (CAMH-EC) to group the similar blocks into clusters. This creates a high-dimensional Euclidean interval to create the number of clusters, and points …are performed randomly to set the initial collection. Then, the Magnitude Vector Space Rate (MVSR) estimates the similarity distance between the groups to select the highest scatter value content for indexing. Finally, the Running Block Parity Encoder (RBPE) generates similarity parity in order to reduce the content to a redundant, singularized file in order to optimise storage. This implementation proves a higher level of storage optimization compared to the previous system than other methods. Show more

Abstract: Epilepsy is considered a most general neurological disorder related to brain activity disruption. In epileptic seizures detection and classification, EEG (Electroencephalogram) measurements that record the brain’s electrical activities are used frequently. Generally, physicians investigate the abnormalities in the brain. However, this technique is time-consuming, faced complexity in seizure detection, and poor consistency because of data imbalance. To overcome these difficulties, Improved Empirical Mode Decomposition for feature extraction and Improved Weight Updated KNN (K-Nearest Neighbor) algorithm for classification are proposed. In the case of pre-processing, a rule-based filter, namely a wiener scalar filter with integer wavelet transform is used for multiple …channels conversion and further signal to noise ratio is increased. Further in feature extraction, better features are extracted using an improved empirical mode decomposition-based bandpass filter. By using the Improved Weight updated KNN, feature extracted samples are classified incorrect manner, avoiding data imbalance issues. Feature vectors’ effective classification is performed attains higher computational speed and sensitivity. The EEG input signal of the proposed study utilizing the BONN dataset and different performance metrics such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, recall, f-score, and error values were performed and compared with various existing studies. From the results, it is clear that the proposed method provides effective detection for seizure and non-seizure patients compared with existing studies. Show more
