Bhavana Paper Title: Analysis of Image Segmentation of Magnetic Reso-nance Image in the Presence of Inhomongeneties Abstract: The present work proposes the Image processing plays a vital role in medical diagnosis system. Out of various processing tools, image segmentation is very crucial in identifying the exact reason of disease. Image segmentation clusters the pixels into silent image regions i.e. regions corresponding to individual surfaces, objects or any part of objects. Various algorithms have been proposed for image segmentation. We have analyzed the various systems that have been developed to medical diagnosis analysis. Reviewing of these frameworks will be dependent upon level set strategies from claiming segmenting pictures. The theme, merits, faults from claiming Different frameworks will be talked about in this paper. Dependent upon that, another framework need been suggested to segmenting those MRI picture utilizing variety level situated calculation without reinitialisation for MRI image. Those framework could be used both to recreated and also genuine im-ages.

Alotaibi Paper Title: Automation and Refuge of Fault Tolerance Approaches using Cloud Computing Platform Abstract: This research paper proposes the Cloud computing platforms would spread very quickly the standout amongst the principle aspects of cloud computing will be the Part under a number layers. Starting with 5. specialized fault tolerance a large portion cloud computing platforms misuse virtualization, this intimates that they need a part under 3 layers such as hosts, virtual machines and requisitions. Starting with an organization 22-24 purpose from claiming view, they need aid part under 2 layers: the cloud supplier who manages those facilitating focal point and the client who manages as much provision in the cloud. This structuring for cloud makes it challenging to actualize all the viable management arrangements. This paper concentrates for deficiency tolerance over cloud Computing platforms for more that's only the tip of the iceberg decisively once autonomic repair shed in the event that about faults. It examines the meanings from claiming this Part in the usage about issue tolerance. Clinched alongside The majority for current approaches, faults line tolerance will be only took care of toward the supplier alternately that customer, which prompts fractional or wasteful results. Solutions, which include a coordinated effort the middle of the supplier and the client, need aid substantially guaranteeing. We show this talk for analyses the place elite Also community oriented deficiency tolerance results are actualized to an autonomic cloud foundation that we prototyped.

The objective function of linear programming problem (LPP) involves in the maximization and minimization problem with the set of linear equalities and inequalities constraints. There are different methods to solve LPP, such as 7. simplex, dual-simplex, Big-M and two phase method. In this paper, an approach is presented to solve LPP with new seven steps process by choosing “key element rule” which is still widely used and remains important in 34-43 practice. We propose a new technique i.e. seven step process in LPP for the simplex, dual-simplex, Big-M and two phase methods to get the solution with complexity reduction. The complexity reduction is done by eliminating the number of elementary row transformation operation in simplex tableau of identity matrix. By the proposed technique elementary transformation of operation has completely avoided and we can achieve the results in considerable duration.

The working of SVM model depends upon the proper selection of SVM parameters. Malware signatures have been taken from G2, MWOR, MPCGEN and NGVCK (Next Generation Virus Creation Kit).Benign signatures have been taken from Gygwin, GCC, TASM, MingW and Clang .ClustalW and T-Coffee are used for signature alignment during primary pairwise alignment and secondary multiple alignment in order to avoid the problem of variable length of code. In this study WWO has been 8. employed for determining the parameters of SVM. The performance of SVM-WWO method has been compared with LAD Tree, Naive Bayes, SVM and ANN(Artificial Neural Network). Furthermore, The results obtained show 44-50 that the newly proposed approach provides significant accuracy. Satisfactory experimental results show the efficiency of proposed method for metamorphic malware detection. Further, it has been recommended that this method can be used to facilitate commercial antivirus engines.

Keywords: metamorphic malware detection, support vector machine (SVM), water wave optimization (WWO).

Manufacturing a high-quality shadow-free image that is indistinguishable from a replica of a real shadow-free scene is even tougher Shadows in pictures area unit generally full of many phenomena within the scene, as well as physical phenomena like lighting conditions, kind and behavior of shadowy surfaces, occluding objects, etc. Additionally, shadow regions might endure post acquisition, image process transformations, e.g., distinction sweetening, which can introduce noticeable artifacts within the shadow-free pictures. We dispute that the assumptions introduced in most studies arise from the quality of the matter of shadow removal from one image and limit the category of shadow pictures which might be handled by employing a Modified Multi-exposure image fusion (MMEF) technique. Experimental results showing definitively the capabilities of our algorithmic rule are given. The difference is that HDR reconstruction works in the radiance domain where the value is linear w.r.t. the exposure, while MMEF works in the intensity based domain. Compared with object motion, camera motion is relatively easy to tackle via either setting a tripod or employing some registration techniques.

Mg base alloys have a wide range of industrial application. These alloys shows a high specific 10. strength but poor wear and corrosion resistance. An ordinary coating of Cu, Ni & Zn etc. provide a physical barrier against the wear rate and corrosion attack of magnesium substrate. In the present investigation, Ni-P plating was 60-66 done on AZ91 composite by immersing samples into Nickel sulphate bath in presence of surfactants. The mechanism of Ni-P deposits was studied by using SEM. Ni-P coating was coated uniformly in the presence of surfactants. Effect of surfactant and Effect of Nano-additives Al2O3, ZnO, and SiO with different quantities were studied. 0.5 g/l Nano Al2O3 additive enhanced the deposition of Ni-P on AZ91 magnesium composite and the same results have been observed in case of SiO addition. Influence of ZnO was also observed. So is very clear that Ni-P coating is very effective to reduce the corrosion and increase the wear behaviour if it is used along with Nano additive and the surfactants.

Agriculture Abstract: The principle objective of the proposed framework is to outline a convenient, versatile and low cost 70-73 farmer friendly intelligent system to accomplish efficient use of water supply and motor control. It senses on field data like climate temperature and soil moisture level, rainfall, with the assistance of sensors used in the system. And also check for 3-ϕ supply availability, no load condition of water pump, intruder detection (humans, animals etc.). farmer receives all the parameters data sensed on field, for further decision making about the need for watering. Also need for motor Turn ON/OFF based on sensing rain fall and the same will be sent to the farmer, who might be away from the field. If any intruder is detected alarm gets enabled and the same is notified to the farmer via SMS. In the proposed system “SMS on demand service” is provided to get the status of all parameters like water resource availability, soil’s moisture content, 3-ϕ power supply availability and the intruder detection. The system helps the farmer in switching the motor according to his need i.e., whether the water is required for the crop or not. A user friendly mobile application and normal SMS service will enable the farmer to monitor and control the land parameters from the remote place efficiently. Hence the proposed method shows satisfactory performance to measure and monitor the land parameters and moreover 3- ϕ supply availability based motor operation saves from motor failure.

At present lower power consumption is the primary objective. The lower power consumption the SRAM cells will be used in the near future extensively. The existing models do not give stability in reading operation because of which a correct logic decision at the output cannot be made. In this paper SRAM cell is designed using FinFET technology and is compared with existing CMOS 45nm technology, and a new SRAM cell structure is proposed which enhances the read stability and write stability with reduction in noise. The transient analysis is done for both CMOS 45nm and FinFET technology based SRAM cell. This proposed model is designed with 8 transistors where 6 transistors are used for 13. data writing and another two are for data reading. The present design increases the read stability. 74-76

With the increase of web content at a rapid rate, only analyzing data is not enough rather managing it with that great pace and efficiency is needed. A new framework Hadoop was implemented in order to perform parallel distributed computing. Hadoop is supported by various frameworks. In this paper, a performance comparison of Pig, Hive and Map Reduce over Big Data is analyzed.

The wireless communication medium makes them highly prone to security attacks. Key management plays a vital role in secured communication. Power efficient and secure key management is one of its major requirements. Group key management is a promising approach for efficient cryptographic key management for MANETs. In this paper, we proposed a weight clustering algorithm for a decentralized group key management. The whole network is divided into smaller subgroups called clusters. The cluster is locally managed by the cluster head (CH). The CHs mutually manage the security key process. All nodes have equal opportunities to take part in CH selection. The CHs are selected by a weight clustering algorithm based on the computational power and the neighbor count of the node. The elected CH selects next CH from its neighbor by comparing their computational power, neighbor nodes and their distance from it. This eliminates the need of gateway nodes for inter-cluster communications. The size of the cluster is directly proportional to the weight of the cluster head that is the cluster head with high weight will manage the large cluster. Therefore the group key management activities are proportionally divided among the cluster heads according to their power. This eliminates the risk of frequent drowning of cluster heads. The performance of our algorithm is assessed through stimulation and compare with two popular weight clustering 15. algorithms. 82-87 Keywords: Cluster, Decentralized group key management, weight clustering algorithm, Wireless ad hoc ntwork.

Previously, findings show that the change of grained size in soil will change the structure (microstructure) and behaviour of the soil; consequently, affected the strength. To date, limited study focused on the effect of grading on the behaviour of sand fine mixtures. This study aims to investigate the effect of coarse sand on undrained strength behaviour of sand matrix soils in comparison with clean sand. A series of test on reconstituted sand matrix soils had been carried out by conducting consolidated undrained (CU) triaxial test using GDS ELDYN® triaxial machine. Coarse sand (retain within 2.0 mm to 0.6 mm) was mixed with 0%, 10 %, 20%, 30%, and 40% of fine particles (kaolin) independently by weight to prepare reconstituted samples. Triaxial samples of 50 mm diameter and 100 mm height were prepared using wet tamping technique (5% of moisture content) with targeted relative density at 15% (loose state). Each reconstituted sample was sheared at two effective confining pressures of 100 kPa and 200 kPa, respectively. Results show that the gradation contributed to the behaviour of the sand matrix soils. Increasing percentage of coarse sand in sand matrix soils exhibited higher effective friction angle. Similar trends were also observed on the angularity effect on undrained shear strength parameters.

Aaramuthan Paper Title: An Uncertain Trust and Prediction Model in Federated Cloud using Machine Learning Approach Abstract: Federated Cloud Model referred as the interconnection of two or more providers with some guidelines prescribed in Service Level Agreement to address the uncertainty such as SLA Violation for the specific service. Most well-known models use the concept of either probability or fuzzy set theory in managing the Quality of Service (QoS) required by the Cloud user, application and tool. In this paper, Deep Learning is applied to predict the SLA Violation and manage the uncertainty. SLA violation is defined as the failure to meet the requirement prescribed for the user and application. In addition to that, banker’s algorithm is modified and used as prediction algorithm to find the possible safe state computation of the tasks and avoid wastage of resources in federated cloud. Random forest data mining technique is applied to rank the trust based provider and top provider may be considered for the service. The simulation results reveal that the proposed model helps to avoid uncertainty to about 78% and recognized that it is one of the most appropriate model needed in federated cloud architecture.

Sivamani, Linnet Tomy, Ann Rija Paul Paper Title: Two-Level Text Summarization with Sentiment Analysis for Multi-Document Summarization Abstract: Text summarization is way of reducing the text content of a document without the losing any information. People are likely to look multiple documents on a single topic because a one document may not include all the major details. The abstract/summary of multiple documents connected to a text will conserve the effort and time. Automatic text summarization is one of the area of natural language processing. Sentiment analysis is a machine learning method in which machine study and inspect the sentiments, opinions, etc about reviews about movies or products. This is extremely hard summarize by human. effective data from the very large document. In this research, we propose a novel method for multiple document summarizations using extractive method of summarization and sentiment analysis from online sources. At first, various document’s URLs are fetched as input relate to a text and generate individual summaries. The sentiment analysis is tried on these generated separate summaries. The sentiment analysis says that whether these input documents have any dissimilar opinion about the topic. Lastly, a unique summary is generated from all these first level summaries. The performance of our proposed method evaluated by ROUGE metric.

For the superior quality and maintenance of the website, new methodologies and tools are developing day by day. In this paper, we propose an algorithm using the concept of 108-115 existing A* algorithm to get the shortest path from the home page to the target page. Before reaching the target page, the user visits other pages. Our motto here is to reduce the longest shortest path of a site, which is an indicator of better structure. For this, we propose a web model. A web model is an intermediate representation of a given web application, which is designed based on pages, frames and links of the application. The A* algorithm is not competent to get the Unreachable pages on the website. We create our sample HTML web page (a case study) to observe Unreachable pages (broken links), frame count and, the order of the frames. The web page is embedded in various websites such as www.learn-automation.com, www.seleniumhq.org, and www.html.com. Frame testing is conducted on the proposed web model using a well-known tool, Selenium web driver. The Selenium tool shows how the frames are moving from one frame to other (order of frame execution), frame count, confirm the broken links or unreachable pages and the ghost pages in our sample HTML web page. These methodologies are very useful for the implementation and maintenance of websites.

Chandra Chud Paper Title: An Evolutionary Perception to link Physical and Human Sciences Abstract: Interlinking physical and human sciences in a seamless continuum is a task yet to be achieved. The difficulty however arises largely due to our inability to understand the mind-body connections. With two centuries of research to reduce individual sensations to neural mechanisms having remarkably failed, this article puts forward an alternative view. A plain acceptance of the creative ability of the universe to bring up fundamental sets of mutually relatable fields and features such as quarks and electrons and at a more evolved state visual and auditory sensations does in fact prepare us to see the whole of reality not merely as norms of Nature but as norms built on purposeful selection and fine-tuning. Under this singular axiom of inextricable interconnection between intelligence and matter, the rare occurrence of life in planet earth is no longer an anomaly but a renewed pattern of additional selection and lawful expansion. The complex societal structures that 21. hinge on the choices, rules and regulations of individuals, now turn out to be a repeating natural development 116-120 extremely similar to the complex biological functions built on the quantum fields. The total edifice of human and physical complexities easily reduce into a simple pattern of one plus one rising over yet another one plus one and the marvel of this pattern is bound to capture the attention of any intelligent being. One single overarching idea, indeed, subsumes every little turn of event that has ever occurred or will ever occur in this large universe.

In practice, PV arrays are commonly partially shaded by trees, clouds, nearby buildings, bird droppings and other utilities which leads to multiple peaks appear in the P-V curve, a global maximum and one or several local peaks. In this paper, the "perturb and observe" (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm employed for tracking the maximum power point under uniform and non-uniform irradiation conditions. Initially, this paper presents the P and O algorithm operation, later the boost converter performance details and finally the combination of a boost converter with P and O algorithm. The evaluation process has been carried systematically for the uniform and non-uniform solar irradiance and finally, the results are analyzed.

Authors: N Shylashree Paper Title: Two Stage Block Truncation Coding for Lower Mean Square Error Abstract: In basic Block Truncation Coding, the given data sequence is encoded into a two level quantized 23. approximation. This results in two segments one of which is comprised of the high level value and the other one, 127-131 the low level value. In the proposed scheme, the basic Block Truncation Coding is refined by further sub segmenting the present segments. This increases the granularity of the data and reduces the truncation error.

Authors: Sudhamani M J, M K Venkatesha Feature Level Fusion of Iris and Finger Vein Biometrics for Multimodal Biometric Authentication Paper Title: System Abstract: With the intense need of security, a reliable authentication system can be attained using multimodal biometrics. Predominately vein patterns are attracting the researchers for developing authentication system. Multimodal biometric system not only aims at combining traits but also on fusion at various levels. Proposed approach fuses invariant iris features and finger vein shape features. The fusion at feature level framework is evaluated to perceive classification accuracy of biometric authentication system. Algorithm prioritizes on reducing high dimension features by considering iris Hu moments and finger vein shape features to accomplish a secured and convenient authentication system. SVM Classifier results prove that multimodal biometric outperforms compared to Uni-modal system. 24. Keywords: Biometrics, Feature Fusion, Hu moment, Multimodal, Shape Features 132-139

Authors: M Vinoth, S Omkumar Paper Title: Optimization of Energy Efficiency using Directional Flooding Protocol in MANET Abstract: The development in the field of wireless technology leads to the increase in application over wireless networks. This increased utilisation of wireless network promoted the research overthe energy efficient networks to generate maximum efficiency with limited battery resource. The mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a type of wireless network in which the nodes are of mobile type. The nodes in MANET can move freely without any bound of limitations. The MANETS generate communication paths individually without the help of centralized infrastructure or centralised nodes like routers or switches. The communication is established using routing protocols which generates the path between sender and destination nodes, transfers data and control packets through the path and maintain the path information to renew the path in case of path failure. Some applications like military surveillance of the nodes in the MANET move randomly and update its location and information to the receiver node frequently. This leads to maximum consumption of energy in the nodes. The load balancing and energy efficient routing play a vital role in the MANET. A directional flooding approach is introduced to reduce the power consumption and extend the network life time. The performance of the directional flooding protocol was compared with on demand routing protocols like AODV and DSR routing protocol to measure the efficiency of the system in hardware environment.

Authors: G Sathish Kumar, S Omkumar Paper Title: Enhancement of QoS in MANET using Semi Graph Model and AODV Routing Protocol Abstract: Improving the Quality of Service (QOS) in the network is a major subject to be discussed in development of MANET. Current researches are performed to generate congestion control measures to schedule the data packets from different network paths to process at the specific node. The performance of that specific node should be increased based on the capacity of routing the packets into multiple paths of the network. The performance of these mobile intermediate nodes are been improved by combining the network layer and transport layer approaches. Due to the MAC layer problems like congestion increases the packet drop, delay and error rate, decreases the delivery rate and throughput of the network. Frequent disconnection of nodes is also possible due to the mobile nature of the nodes in MANET. In order to overcome these limitations, a maximum dominant set based semi graph model is developed to frame transport layer mechanism and AODV. DSR protocols are involved to generate a routing path between the nodes of the network. The performance of the semi graph model along with the AODV and DSR routing protocols were evaluated by implementing in the hardware environment.

Keywords: Quality of Service, MANET, AODV, DSR, Semi Graph model, Maximum Dominant set, Edges and Vectors.

The market is already in a transition from traditional password authentication process to password less authentication technique. Because of its unique feature to identify every individual with different traits, voice recognition is gaining speed as authentication technique; however, it comes with some inherent limitations. In this paper, voice recognition is hybridized with behavioral authentication technique and a framework is proposed in expectation of overcoming some of the issues of voice recognition.

We present a novel different source dynamic estimation technique utilizing a semi-randomized probe testing plan and packet entry arrange estimations which don't require exact synchronization between the hosts. In past tomography work, the connection between wrong inference of topology set & % loss probability on every link has been utilized to derive the hidden topology. Conversely, our principle thought behind utilizing Network coding is to present relationships among probe packets in a topology subordinate way and furthermore create calculations that exploit these connections to surmise the system topology from end host perceptions. Primer reenactments 30. outline the execution advantages of this methodology. Specifically, without packet loss, we can deterministically surmise the topology, with not very many tests; within the sight of packet loss, we can quickly derive topology, 166-171 even at little loss rates.

Mahajan Paper Title: Secrete Random Pattern Key Mosaic Images Steganography using DWT-DCT Transform Abstract: In today’s digital world, privacy concerns for data over the internet have increased. In many communications we transmit digital images and these images contain confidential information. Making is vulnerable towards unauthorized personals attacking the image and leaking our information which demands higher privacy. So, there are a number of methods available for achieving this privacy, one of them being Random key Steganography. This make use of Mosaic image creation which has two distinct techniques, DWT (Discrete wavelet Transform) and DCT (Discrete Cosine Transform). The target image is randomly selected into blocks to uses of this image for hiding secret image. Target image and Secret image is divided into 2x2 blocks called image tile respectively. A secret image hiding scheme is proposed with new security features. This scheme utilizes the mosaic images, which is created from the secret and target images. A Combined (mosaic) image or watermark image is similar to source image. The secret image blocks are hidden in the target image by performing appropriate random pattern blocks.

Paper Title: Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm Based Approach for Solving Rfid Reader Placement Problem Using Weight-Vector Approach with Opposition-Based Learning Method Abstract: For smart building applications, identifying and tracking the objects and people in and around a building is an inevitable problem. There exist many approaches for solving this problem. Nowadays, the RFID network based approaches have become most popular for its speed and accuracy. However, placing the RFID readers at optimal places in a building to cover all the areas in order to identify and track the objects and people is a cumbersome task. This paper proposes a model in which the RFID reader placement problem is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem and also proposes an algorithmic framework to solve the same. The proposed algorithmic frame work consists of a multi-objective Differential Evolution algorithm which adds weights to each of the objective and also follows the opposition-based learning approach for initializing the populations. The results obtained in solving the RFID reader placement problem with proposed algorithmic framework is studied and reported in details for individual objectives, combined objectives with different schemes and for two different population initialization techniques.

Variables are used to represent the data in a program. On executing a program, the variables are replaced with the real time values and hence it creates a possibility for a program to process different set of data. They are most predominant ones that involve in computation and bear the intermediate or final values in a program. These values are good enough in deciding the flow of the program and hence there is a necessity for analyzing flows. From the software tester’s perspective, there grows a need to analyze and test those variables structurally. Data-flow testing is a white-box based testing technique that utilizes control flow and data flow through the program for testing. There are two main forms of data flow testing called as define/use testing and slice-based testing. This paper gives a focus on define/use based testing where it uses simple rules that aids in ensuring whether all the variables are defined and used at the appropriate points within the program. It helps the tester in chalking out the values of a variable, recording them and can trace the changes in values within the program. It is done by using a concept of a program graph, which is closely related to the path testing, selected on a specific variable.

Chandra Prakash Dynamic dispatching of Elevators in Elevator Group Control System with time-based floor Paper Title: preference Abstract: Elevator Group Control System (EGCS) has a significant role in the transportation system of buildings. This study presents an elevator group dynamic even and odd floor preference approach based on the real-time passenger traffic to overcome the difficulty of using elevators in the up peak and down-peak traffic mode. The proposed system framework divides building floors as even and odd based on the floor number, some lifts allocated for even numbered floors and some for odd floors. Even numbered lifts are responsible for serving calls of even floors, and odd number lifts are responsible for serving calls of odd floors. Proposed study uses time-based floor preference logic for dynamic allocation of elevators. The primary motive of the proposed research study is to reduce the passengers traveling time, average-waiting time and improve overall system performance in up-peak traffic and down-peak traffic conditions. The time-based floor preference logic used for dynamic allocation of elevators significantly minimizes the waiting time and traveling time of passengers.

Keywords: Down-peak traffic, Dynamic dispatching, Elevator, EGCS, time-based floor preference, Up- peak traffic.

The technology advancement is making the UAV much better in its specification with advances in computing innovation, programming improvement, light-weight materials, worldwide route, propelled information joins, refined sensors and so on, are reinforcing the abilities and fueling the interest for UAVs worldwide. UAV also colloquially known as Drone is a robot that has the ability to operate autonomously without direct control from a human operator. For nations, it is a surveillance tool, meant to watch over nations as Drones have been used in the past for warfare as such, and activities alike. Drones have been a handy gadget to get “Ariel photography” for many decades and used for intelligence and anti-terrorist outcomes. Today the drones are much more versatile and are moving the industry ahead in its reach for activities as monitoring, investigation, product deliveries, aerial photography, healthcare, disaster relief management, agriculture and even drone racing. There are other types of drones too such as boats, submarines, and ground-based robots. The primary purpose is to explore the usage of drones in Humanitarian causes such as disaster relief and social causes as health care.

Authors: Omprakash Subramaniam , Ravichandran Mylswamy Ant Colony Optimization Based Support Vector Machine Towards Predicting Coronary Artery Paper Title: Disease Abstract: Data mining is the progression of finding the hidden information from the dataset available. Data mining started stepping and playing a major role in the medical field and it helps the medical practitioner to take a decision. Classification is considered as the major research issues in data mining. Classification is done based on the characteristics or features available. Currently, coronary artery disease (CAD) is getting evolve in South Asia countries, which is becoming a major cause for death. Data mining algorithms are being used to diagnosis of diseases, mostly in CAD. Currently available algorithms gets lack in classification towards accuracy. In this paper, a novel classification algorithm is proposed to effectively classify towards the prediction of CAD, namely ant colony optimization based support vector machine. It is designed to classify and predict CAD more accurately. The proposed algorithm classify the records in a dataset in a random manner instead of sequence manner. A threshold value is used for classification for more accurate results. The proposed algorithm is tested on Z-AlizadehSani dataset for the classification of heart disease among the patients. This research work uses the benchmark performance metrics namely sensitivity, specificity, and classification accuracy. The result shows that ACO-SVM is giving better results than SMO, BSMO, Bagging and NN algorithms.

This paper proposes 38. a fast, efficient and automatic method of video inpainting to inpaint moving objects in the video. The presented algorithm employs the spatiotemporal coherency present in the video frames for inpainting while considering the 216-223 fact that the background either has periodic motion or it remains stationary. The algorithm does not require any manual generation of the mask. Batch frame based inpainting is proposed to maintain motion information in case of background having periodic motion. A new dissimilarity measure; 3D N-SSD is introduced to find similar frames for frame-based video inpainting algorithms. The proposed algorithm is tested for different background and illumination conditions. We have done speed and quality test analysis by inpainting videos of different backgrounds. Quick execution times and high PSNR values for inpainted videos show effectiveness of our algorithm.

Keywords: 3D N-SSD, inpainting mask, periodic background, reference frame, temporal data, video inpainting.

Bichkar Genetic Algorithm Based Imperceptible Spatial Domain Image Steganography Technique with High Paper Title: Payload Capacity Abstract: Data security is a very important factor in any form of digital communication. Steganography can be used to enhance the security of digital communication. There are various methods to perform steganography on digital images, but very few deal with increasing imperceptibility and data embedding capacity together. In this paper, a high data embedding capacity spatial domain image steganography scheme is proposed which is highly imperceptible. In the proposed technique steganography is modeled as a search and optimization problem and Genetic algorithm (GA) is used to solve this problem to find the near-optimal solution. Optimal pixel adjustment procedure (OPAP) is further used to improve the quality of stego-image. Experimental results exhibited that the proposed technique provides an improvement in imperceptibility of stego-image at high data embedding rate when compared to several other popular steganography techniques. The average PSNR value of 39. various stego-images at two bit per pixel data embedding rate was 46.39. 224-229 Keywords: Genetic algorithm (GA); Image steganography; Information hiding; Spatial domain; Steganalysis

Authors: Anil kumar.Muthevi , Ravi babu.Uppu Paper Title: Ordered Local Binary Pattern (OLBP) For Classification of Textures Abstract: Conventional Local Binary Pattern (LBP) methods follow the patterns whose rotations are lesser than two or certain limited numbers are called rotation invariant binary patterns. In the conventional rotational- invariant encoding method has disadvantage due to neglecting information of the some patterns by its process of encoding. It ignores the patterns when their spatial transition is greater than two for maintaining the rotation- invariant nature. But these disregarded patterns will plays crucial role and have very much more discriminative power. Here, the present study proposing a novel model called OLBP by changing (sorting) the order of consecutive binary patterns without disturbing the property of rotational invariance. The result observed by experiments indicates the proposed work shows better classification rate which is worked on the standard databases when compared to previous existing methods.

Authors: Ombir Dahiya, Ashish Kumar, Monika Saini Performance Evaluation and Availability Analysis of a Harvesting System using Fuzzy Reliability Paper Title: Approach Abstract: Conventional reliability of a system consider the binary state assumption of the probability theory, i.e., either success or failed. But this assumption is unrealistic for large complex systems like harvesting systems due to lack of sufficient probabilistic information. The uncertainty of each individual component enhances the uncertainty of the whole system. In this paper, the concept of fuzzy reliability has been used for the analysis of fuzzy availability of a harvesting system. The effect of coverage factor, failure and repair rate of subsystems on system fuzzy availability has been analysed. Mathematical formulation of problem with help of mnemonic rule and Chapman-Kolmogorov differential equations has been done. The governing differential equations are solved by Runge–Kutta method of order four using MATLAB (Ode 45 function).

Authors: A Kavitha Paper Title: Performance Analysis on Quantum–Dot Cellular Automata Abstract: The changes that the Quantum Cellular Automata devices have faced have been evolutionary but still the most advanced chips continue using the same computing paradigm as their old predecessors. There are a lot of expectations that new paradigms will be developed for the processing of information. The CMOS technology uses current switching but the QCA deals with encoding the binary information as it is the array of cells and every cell has quantum dots and its fast-dimensional scaling will in the end be expected to reach the fundamental limit. The interaction of the quantum mechanics with the coulomb in every cell, is the one that determines the cell state. Additionally, the molecular QCA has the ability of operating at a speed of Terahertz (THz) together with a very less power and extremely high gadget density.

In this technical era, when everything is being digitized, many of us prefer to transfer data in a digital form; to be more secure while using digital devices through biometric sensors. We encounter many more such instances in our day to day life where these devices and sensors are deployed. The biometric devices or systems require a quality input to achieve quality performance. There is always a need to enhance the quality of the sample after its acquisition. In this paper, we are going to discuss image quality enhancement for biometric recognition system where iris samples have been used; by proposing an image quality analysis approach of segmented irises based on quality filters. It means input images are not directly passed to the filters, they are firstly segmented and then segmented parts will be enhanced using different filters. Segmentation is one of the initial key steps of recognition systems and has a significant role in the biometric systems as the performance results of the system’s subsequent stages depend upon the segmentation results. We have segmented iris images into three major parts namely ROI, pupil and sclera. ROI represents the region of interest i.e. iris. Moreover, iris 50. images from four directions viz. up, straight, left and right are taken into consideration to achieve more promising results. Unlike general case, filters are applied for enhancement after segmenting the input images. To 279-296 measure the quality of input samples, various image quality metrics have been calculated and analyzed comprehensively to reach to the conclusion that Gaussian filter performs better as compared to Average and Circular Average Filter.

Authors: Ritu Rani, Vinod Kr. Saroha, Sanjeev Rana Paper Title: Simulating Energy Efficient Cloud Environment Using Advanced Mechanism Abstract: The objective of research is to propose energy efficient model for cloud computing [1]. As energy is divided symmetrically then load of traffic will be disseminated in network. Thus there is need to put minimum load over network. The same occurs during packet transmission. Reducing the size of packet using advanced 51. logic resolves the issue of space and time consumption. These advanced techniques help in minimizing the 297-301 energy consumption [3]. Appropriate load balancing is maintained by well managed cloudlets and virtual machine. This research states the impact of number of cloudlets and size over virtual machines.

Physical (SEM, XRD, Specific Gravity etc.) & chemical properties (XRF) of materials used were analyzed. Different proportions of OPC, RSA & Micro silica were researched for normal consistency, initial and final setting time of paste etc. Different proportion of rice straw ash and microsilica used for part replacement of OPC in the cement paste were 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30% and 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10% by weight of OPC respectively. Rice straw ash was also mixed with 52. micro silica to form a composite for replacing OPC in the mix. Mix R1M3 (5% Rice Straw Ash & 7.5% Micro Silica) could achieve highest pozzolanic reaction while mix R2M3 (10% Rice Straw Ash & 7.5% Micro Silica) 302-307 could achieve maximum economy. In India, Rice Straw is produced in abundance and has extensive geographical coverage. Rice Straw Ash is technically of no use to farmers, and they treat it as a waste product. They tend to burn rice straw in order to clear their field for the next batch of crop. In this paper, rice straw admixed with micro silica is treated as a potential material for pavement construction, and various preliminary tests were done on cement-rice straw ash-micro silica paste to check the possibility of using rice straw ash in pavement quality concrete.

Keywords: Rice Straw Ash; Pastes; Micro silica; Consistency; Initial and Final Setting times.

Yermolenko, V.V. Mironov Mechanism of The Effect of Transverse Shifts on The Stress State in The Problems of Plate and Shell Paper Title: Mechanics Abstract: The work considers a series of problems on bending of shallow and flat plates under a normal load, as well as contact problems for the given plates and a solid base. The equations of a theory refined by considering transverse shifts and reduction are taken as the input equations describing the stress-strain state in 54. plates. A systematic effect of the transverse shifts on the stress state is observed in all problems due to the fact that the graphs of bending moments from changes in curvature and from transverse shifts are in antiphase. 318-321 Keywords: shallow plate, transverse shift, transverse contraction, bending moment, antiphase effect.

Domain Abstract: The important information is collected from multiple input images and formed fused one which has 327-331 extra quantitative content. Image fusion is executed either in spatial or transform platforms. In spatial domain spectral information is distributed in the entire image. In this work image fusion is implemented in transform domain. Slant Transform effectively represents linear brightness changes. Statistical measure discriminates the important blocks of the image efficiently. Smoothness measure identifies less noisy blocks efficiently. Hence, in this work image fusion in Slant Transform domain using smoothness is proposed. Smoothness of slant transformed blocks are compared to select the important block from multiple images. The eminence of the fused image can be judged using various performance metrics such as Feature Similarity (FSIM) index, Mutual Information (MI), Normalized Cross Correlation (NCC), and Edge Strength Orientation preservation (ESOP).Proposed method is suitable for multi-focus image fusion.

Authors: Madhuchandrika Chattopadhyay, R. Rajavel Paper Title: Solar PV Technology for Smart Cities of India Abstract: The Smart City guidelines under “Smart Cities Mission” declared by Government of India insist 10% of the Smart City’s energy requirement come from solar energy by generating electricity through solar PV rooftop installation, street lightings etc. Considering the life span of a solar PV power plant more than 20years, the study on meteorological parameters such as the latitude, ambient temperature, humidity and pollution level is necessary for choosing the right PV technology and precisely forecasting the power generation. The negative impact on environment of the unrestrained population growth has also been discussed. This study assessed five different solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies - monocrystalline silicon (mcSi), polycrystalline silicon (pcSi), amorphous silicon (aSi), copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS), and Cadmiun Telluride (CdTe) in various smart cities located in different zones of India using PVsyst simulation software and facilitated the PV installers to plan and identify the best PV technology for a particular smart city.

The retrieval operation based on the sha pe details defined in a sketch input is used for image region descriptor and a distance based mapping approach is developed for image retrieval in a database system. The search overhead, decision accuracy and feature representation is constraint to such sketch based approach, hence in this paper, a context re- ranking model based on feedback modeling is proposed. The approach has an advantage of faster retrieval performance compared to the conventional retrieval system. The validation is made with the simulation result developed for the proposed approach over the conventional benchmark approach.

Keywords: Sketch based image retrieval, context feature, re-ranking, feedback modeling.

Numerous scientists chipping away at it so as to pick up the same number of uses from this imaginative innovation so as to use as vitality sparing building material that grants transmission of light into indoor condition and this solid go about as an engineering reason for good aesthetical perspective of the building. Translucent concrete is, acquired by inserting optical strands in it. This solid has light-trans missive 64. properties because of these inserted light optical components. Light is led through the concrete from one end to 372-374 the next. Contingent upon the fiber structure, these outcomes into a specific light pattern on the other surface. These strands transmit light so viably that there is supplant traditional concrete by this new and testing material. This is a creative building envelope chiefly utilized for sunlight porousness for the misty parts of outside veneers and rooftops. This solid for all intents and purposes there is no loss of light led through the filaments. Not just there is the great quality and light entry by utilizing optical filaments yet since the optical strands have less density than that of concrete thus by utilizing optical strands in concrete we get light weight concrete with adequate different properties and valuable number of uses.

This can be achieved by intimating the accident to the nearby emergency unit in minimal time by using artificial intelligence based on the severity of accidents. In existing methods, the accidents are detected using On-based unit, and transmitted to the control unit using nearby antennas, where the severity of the accidents are classified using data-mining. Then the fetched data is compared with existing accident dataset which it is retrieved from previous accidents, the analysed results are then transmitted to the nearby emergency unit [1], [2]. This will lead to ambiguous prediction of data because if the data doesn’t exist in the database, intensity of accident must be analysed manually in which it leads to increase in time complexity for transmitting the data to the nearby emergency unit due to intermediate infrastructure. To overcome these drawbacks, in this proposed system the accidents are detected using sensors and the severity of accident will be calculated using machine learning algorithms like k-means clustering and Support vector machine (SVM) classification under reinforcement learning with help of force and impact obtain while vehicle crashes, then the values are transmitted to the nearby emergency unit using Breadth-first-search in the form of A* Search algorithm.

The energy is mostly wasted by huge number of nodes even they are inactive. WSN is a collection of different technologies like embedded, processing, and communication technology. The use of WSN gets widened in the fields of health care, traffic management, monitoring of environment, and management during disaster. The main intention of research aims to analyze the WSN and propose a power aware routing protocol (PARP) to reduce consumption of energy by the wireless node in congestion. The proposed routing protocol works by constructing a multicast tree to send message to the destination with less effort and energy. In order to control multicast delivery system, this work selects the node nearest WSN node for the perfect position to the forwarding node for preserving the energy between two neighboring goals that is placed in multicast tree. This research work uses the Network Simulator version 2 (NS2) for evaluation purpose and the performance metrics as throughput, packet delivery ratio, energy consumption, and delay. The result indicate that PARP achieves its objectives in a efficient when compared with other approaches namely DACR (Distributed Adaptive Cooperative Routing) protocol and REER (Reliable Energy Efficient Routing) protocol.

Because of high thickness and portability of nodes, conceivable dangers and road accidents are expanding. Wireless communication permits sending safety and other basic data. Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET) is an innovation which accommodates the vehicle as node to interconnect with each other through a wireless network. The essential structure goal of these applications is to serve the clients and give security of human lives amid their journey. Security is a major issue in VANET as it can be life threatening. We propose ECEDS (Elliptic Curve Encryption and Digital Signature) gives system security by utilizing a digital signature for message communicated over the system. This framework likewise used to counteract Sybil attack by limiting timestamps given by RsU at a beginning stage itself. An attacker is one of sort of end client, yet their role in the system is negative and makes issues for different segments of system. A serious attack, known as Sybil attack, against ad- hoc networks includes an attacker misguidedly asserting numerous characters. A Sybil attack delivers different messages to different nodes. Every message contains distinctive source personality. In this paper, we discusses some of the techniques put forwarded by researchers to detect Sybil attack in VANET. In this paper, we propose a Preference Batch Authentication Algorithm (PRBAA) expecting to decrease the message loss rate of nodes and Road-side Units (RsU’s). PRBAA is utilized to characterize the requests acquired from various nodes so as to furnish prompt reaction to crisis nodes with less time delay.

Keywords: Elliptic Curve Encryption and Digital Signature (ECEDS), Preference Batch Authentication Algorithm (PRBAA), Sybil Attack, Vehicular Ad-Hoc Network (VANET).

Authors: Riktesh Srivastava Paper Title: Blockchain and transaction Processing time Using M/M/1 Queue Model Abstract: The blockchain is an irrefutably a clever invention, where the digital information gets distributed across multiple nodes. The concept was hosted in bitcoin cryptocurrency systems for distribution of coins in a distributed ledger system. Introduction of smart contracts in Ethereum blockchain explored various distinct applications ranging from financial services, supply chain management, healthcare amid others. However, current set of literatures focus more on development and realization of blockchain and petite work is done on mathematical models, performance analysis and optimization of blockchain systems. In this paper, mathematical model is developed using M/M/1 queue model to evaluate transaction processing time. In M/M/1, M symbolizes Markovian arrival and departure of transactions in blocks. The arriving and departure of the blocks are denoted by symbols 휆, µ respectively and operates under exponential assumptions. Three different conditions of 휆, µ are taken into consideration of complete evaluation of blocks acceptance and the mathematical tactic will open a sequence of possibly favorable research in queueing theory of blockchain systems. The research founds its limitation in acceptance rate is always one unit larger than the arrivals of blocks (termed as an ergodic condition) for stable working of the complete system. 69. Keywords: M/M/1 queue, blockchain, transaction processing time, Ergodicity. 399-401

GnanaKing Paper Title: A Secure Model for Hiding Multimedia Files within Two Cover Images Abstract: Steganography, technology of information hiding that allows people to communicate secretly, in 71. which actual data will be kept hidden inside the cover object. This paper deals with multimedia hiding system in which secret multimedia file is kept hidden in dual cover images. The proposed model takes the secret 402-405 multimedia file and divided it among two cover images of same dimensions and size. The multimedia files are considered as a continuous byte and then it is vertically split into two halves, in which one half is the most significant half bytes, and the other half is the least significant half bytes. Then the two halves are embedded inside the two cover images using a four bit least significant replacement technique. To avoid capture of stego images by an attacker, it is expected to sent stego images separately through different channels. The secret multimedia file can be extracted by combining least significant half bytes of two stego images. The recovered secret multimedia file is similar in structure and content with original hidden multimedia file.
