Abstract

This paper proposes a new algorithm for embedding private information within a cover image. Unlike all other already existing algorithms, this one tends to employ the data of the carrier image more efficiently such that the image looks less distorted. As a consequence, the private data is maintained unperceived and the sent information stays unsuspicious.  This task is achieved by dividing the least significant bit plane of the cover image into fixed size blocks, and then embedding the required top-secret message within each block using one of two opposite ways depending on the extent of similarity of each block with the private information needed to be hidden. This technique will contribute to lessen the number of bits needed to be changed in the cover image to accommodate the private data, and hence will substantially reduce the   amount of distortion in the stego-image when compared to the classic LSB image steganography algorithms.

Abstract

In order to provide constant DC voltage, buck converter is used which is a common converter in different applications. The use of artificial control methods for DC/DC converter will increase the productivity, spend low energy, and able to avoid the changes. Here, in order to control the proposed converter, intelligent regulation is utilized. Different methods have been suggested to satisfy the need of the output. The work uses proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller which is received the error difference between the output and the desired. Fuzzy logic controller (FLC) is also used. While the fuzzy-PID supervised (FSC-PID) where the parameters of the PID is updated using the fuzzy system. The explanation of the proposed controllers is presented in this paper. PID, fuzzy logic controller, and fuzzy-PID supervised have been designed and implemented using MATLAB in order to settle the output of buck DC/DC converter. The complete system has been built in MATLAB/Simulink. The proposed controller keeps track the output to be exactly the set signal.

Abstract

In this paper the benchmarking functions are used to evaluate and check the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. However, the functions utilized have two dimension but they selected with different difficulty and with different models. In order to prove capability of PSO, it is compared with genetic algorithm (GA). Hence, the two algorithms are compared in terms of objective functions and the standard deviation. Different runs have been taken to get convincing results and the parameters are chosen properly where the Matlab software is used. Where the suggested algorithm can solve different engineering problems with different dimension and outperform the others in term of accuracy and speed of convergence.

Abstract

Employment DC-DC switching power converters in many different areas become is very important. In this paper, three different models of the photovoltaic solar module were proposed in order to designing, implementation, and simulated them in MATLAB/Simulink with the boost converter circuit first and then with the positive output super lift Luo (POSLL) converter circuit again. A comparison was made between the two circuits, as well as a theoretical and simulation values were made and compared between them (in the same standard conditions) for each of these selected models. So as to improving solar system performance and clarify the functions played by POSLL in power electronic circuits.

Abstract

COVID-19 has caused disruptions to many aspects of everyday life. To reduce the impact of this pandemic, its spreading must be controlled via face mask wearing. Manually mask-checking for everybody is embarrassing and uncontrollable. Hence, the proposed technique is used to help for automatic mask-checking based on deep learning platforms with real-time surveillance live infra-red (IR) camera. In this paper, two recent object detection platforms, named, you only look once version 3 (YOLOv3) and TensorFlow lite are adopted to accomplish this task. The two models are trained with a dataset consisting of images of persons with/without masks. This work is simulated with Google Colab then tested in real-time on an embedded device mated with fast GPU called Raspberry Pi 4 model B, 8 GB RAM. A comparison is made between the two models to verify their performance in relation to their precision rate and processing time. The work of this paper is also succeeded to realize multiple face masks real-time detection up to 10 facemasks in a single scene with high inference speed. Temperature is also measured using IR touchless sensor for each person with sound alarming to alert fever. The presented detector is cheap, light, small, and fast, with 99% accuracy rate during training and testing.
