Data security is utmost important for ubiquitous computing of medical/diagnostic data or images. Along with must consider preserving privacy of patients. Recently, deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) sequences and chaotic sequence are jointly used for building efficient data masking model. However, the state-of-art model are not robust against noise and cropping attack (CA). Since in existing model most digits of each pixel are not altered. This work present efficient data masking (EDM) method using chaos and DNA based encryption method for securing health care data. For overcoming research challenges effective bit scrambling method is required. Firstly, this work present an efficient bit scrambling using logistic sine map and pseudorandom sequence using chaotic system. Then, DNA substitution is performed among them to resist against differential attack (DA), statistical attack (SA) and CA. Experiment are conducted on standard considering diverse images. The outcome achieved shows proposed model efficient when compared to existing models.

In this paper, a new technique that hides a secret text inside a speech signal without any apparent noise is presented. The technique for encoding the secret text is through first scrambling the text using Chaotic Map, then encoding the scraped text using the Zaslavsky map, and finally hiding the text by breaking the speech signal into blocks and using only half of each block with the LSB, K-means algorithms. The measures (SNR, PSNR, Correlation, SSIM, and MSE) are used on various speech files (“.WAV”), and various secret texts. We observed that the suggested technique offers high security (SNR, PSNR, Correlation, and SSIM) of an encrypted text with low error (MSE). This indicates that the noise level in the speech signal is very low and the speech purity is high, so the suggested method is effective for embedding encrypted text into speech files.

The integration of load shedding schemes with mainstream protection in power system networks is vital. The traditional power system network incorporates different protection schemes to protect its components. Once the power network reaches its maximum limits, and the load demand continue to increase the whole system will experience power system instability. The system frequency usually drops due to the loss of substantial generation creating imbalance. The best method to recover the system from instability is by introducing an under-frequency load shedding (UFLS) scheme in parallel with the protection schemes. This paper proposed a new UFLS scheme used in power systems and industry to maintain stability. Three case studies were implemented in this paper. Multi-stage decision-making algorithms load shedding in the environment of the DIgSILENT power factory platform is developed. The proposed algorithm speeds-up the operation of the UFLS scheme. The load shedding algorithm of the proposed scheme is implemented as a systematic process to achieve stability of the power network which is exposed to different operating conditions. The flexibility of the proposed scheme is validated with the modified IEEE 39-bus New England model. The application of the proposed novel UFLS schemes will contribute further to the development of new types of engineers.

The results of theoretical and experimental studies on the problems of effective application of shunt active filters for power quality improvement and electromagnetic compatibility ensuring were presented in this article. Based on the different theories and methods, the most effective and well-studied control algorithms of shunt active filters were determined and analyzed to ensure their effective application in distributed generation systems and combined power supply systems. Mathematical and computer simulation models of shunt active filters with different control algorithms in distributed generation systems and combined power supply systems were developed. According to the results of mathematical modeling and computer simulation, the dependences were detected, reflecting the influences of internal and external parameters on the factors, determining the efficiency of the correction of power quality indicators. The range of permissible changes in the parameters of shunt active filters by saving the required efficiency level of power quality correction was detected under varied power supply system characteristics, load parameters and also in hybrid structures. The adaptive algorithm of the shunt active filter functioning under varied application conditions for automated power quality improvement is developed on the basis

Low-frequency oscillations (LFO) are an inevitable problem of power systems and they have a great effect on the capability of transfer and power system stability. The power system stabilizers (PSSs) as well as flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices can help to damp LFO. The target of this study is to tackle the problem of a dual-coordinated design between PSS and unified power flow controller (UPFC) implementing the task of power oscillation damping (POD) controller in a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) system. So, dolphin echolocation optimization (DEO) technique is utilized as an optimization tool to search for optimal parameter tunings based on objective function for enhancing the dynamic stability performance for a SMIB. DEO an algorithm has a few parameters, simple rules, provides the optimum result and is applicable to a wide range of problems like other meta-heuristic algorithms. Use DEO gave the best results in damping LFO compared to particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. From the comparison results between PSO and DEO, it was shown that DEO provides faster settling time, less overshoot, higher damping oscillations and greatly improves system stability. Also, the comparison results prove that the multiple stabilizers show supremacy over independent controllers in mitigationg LFO of a SMIB.

Technically, mobile P2P network system architecture can consider as a distributed architecture system (like a community), where the nodes or users can share all or some of their own software and hardware resources such as (applications store, processing time, storage, network bandwidth) with the other nodes (users) through Internet, and these resources can be accessible directly by the nodes in that system without the need of a central coordination node. The main structure of our proposed network architecture is that all the nodes are symmetric in their functions. In this work, the security issues of mobile P2P network system architecture such as (web threats, attacks and encryption) will be discussed deeply and then we propose different approaches and we analysis and evaluation of these mobile P2P network security issues and submit some proposal solutions to resolve the related problems with threats and other different attacks since these threats and attacks will be serious issue as networks are growing up especially with mobility attribute in current P2P networks.

A fundamental factor of digital image compression is the conversion processes. The intention of this process is to understand the shape of an image and to modify the digital image to a grayscale configuration where the encoding of the compression technique is operational. This article focuses on an investigation of compression algorithms for images with artistic effects. A key component in image compression is how to effectively preserve the original quality of images. Image compression is to condense by lessening the redundant data of images in order that they are transformed cost-effectively. The common techniques include discrete cosine transform (DCT), fast Fourier transform (FFT), and shifted FFT (SFFT). Experimental results point out compression ratio between original RGB images and grayscale images, as well as comparison. The superior algorithm improving a shape comprehension for images with grahic effect is SFFT technique.

Gangrene disease is one of the deadliest diseases on the globe which is caused by lack of blood supply to the body parts or any kind of infection. The gangrene disease often affects the human body parts such as fingers, limbs, toes but there are many cases of on muscles and organs. In this paper, the gangrene disease classification is being done from the given images of high resolution. The convolutional neural network (CNN) is used for feature extraction on disease images. The first layer of the convolutional neural network was used to capture the elementary image features such as dots, edges and blobs. The intermediate layers or the hidden layers of the convolutional neural network extracts detailed image features such as shapes, brightness, and contrast as well as color. Finally, the CNN extracted features are given to the Support Vector Machine to classify the gangrene disease. The experiment results show the approach adopted in this study performs better and acceptable.

This research paper examines the adverse effect of theoretical explanation of the grammatical rules among the learners. Exploration of the methods and materials taught inductively or deductively is the panacea to achieve the required goal. The study throws light on the pedagogical implication of adopting appropriate methods and materials for building the learners’ grammar and language. It primarily intends to explore a new teaching method using language corpora that can be employed in the English grammar classes in colleges at the undergraduate level. It strives to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching sentence patterns through corpus based activities comparing with the traditional based teaching. Thus the methodology aims to encourage students to become independent corpus users.
