Regular expressions are heavily used in the field of computer programming. They are known by their strength to search or replace parts of strings according to a given structure (mails, phone, numbers, etc.). Currently regular expressions are only used to search for some patterns or to make some substitutions in strings. However, the need may be wider than that when it comes to order the results of a regular expression or to group them according to some criteria. Developers are always called to analyze the results of a regular expression by doing some restrictions such as (equal, not equal, between) or some projections like (maximum, average, grouping by ..) or sorts. Unfortunately, to do these treatments, the developer must implement his own algorithms which cost him a remarkable effort and a waste of time. We propose in this paper an API called RegexCriteria inspired from Hibernate Criteria to support developer while analysing the results of a regular expression.

With the internet today available at the user’s beck, and call data or Information Security plays a vital role. Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability, and Non-repudiation are the pillars of security on which every application on the web is based on. With these basic requirements the users also need the security in low resource constrained environments making it more challenging for the security experts to design secured cryptographic algorithms. Digital Signatures play a pivotal role in Authentication. They help in verifying the integrity of the data being exchanged. Elliptical curves are the strongest contenders in Digital Signatures, and much research is being done to enhance the method in many ways. The paper briefs a secured and improved ECDSA Elliptical Curve Digital Signature Algorithm which is an improved and secured version of the Digital Signature Algorithm.

Today the different social networking sites have enabled everyone to easily express and share their feelings with people around the world. A lot of people use text for communicating, which can be done through different social media messaging platforms available today such as Twitter, Facebook etc, as they find it easier to express their feelings through text instead of speaking them out. Many people who also suffer from stress find it easier to express their feelings on online platform, as over there they can express themselves very easily. So if they are alerted beforehand, there are ways to overcome the mental problems and stress they are suffering from. Depression stands out to be one of the most well known mental health disorders and a major issue for medical and mental health practitioners. Legitimate checking can help in its discovery, which could be useful to anticipate and prevent depression all-together.Hence there is a need for a system, which can cater to such issues and help the user. The purpose of this paper is to propose an efficient method that can detect the level of depression in Twitter users. Sentiment scores calculated can be combined with different emotions to provide a better method to calculate depression scores. This process will help underscore various aspects of depression that have not been understood previously. The main aim is to provide a sense of understanding regarding depression levels in different users and how the scores can be correlated to the main data.

A newly adopted optimization technique known as sine-cosine algorithm (SCA) is suggested in this research article to tune the gains of Fuzzy-PID controller along with a derivative filter (Fuzzy-PIDF) of a hybrid interconnected system for the Load Frequency Control (LFC). The scrutinized multi-generation system considers hydro, gas and thermal sources in all areas of the dual area power system integrated with UPFC (unified power flow controller) and SMES (Super-conducting magnetic energy storage) units. The preeminence of the offered Fuzzy-PIDF controller is recognized over Fuzzy-PID controller by comparing their dynamic performance indices concerning minimum undershoot, settling time and also peak overshoot. Finally, the sensitiveness and sturdiness of the recommended control method are proved by altering the parameters of the system from their nominal values and by the implementation of random loading in the system.

In today's industrial world, the growing capacity of renewable energy sources is a crucial factor for sustainable power generation. The application of solar photovoltaic (PV) energy sources, as a clean and safe renewable energy resource has found great attention among the consumers in the recent decades. Accurate forecasting of the generated PV power is an important task for scheduling the generators and planning the consumption patterns of customers to save electricity costs. To this end, it is necessary to develop a global model of the generated power based on the effective factors which are mainly the solar radiation intensity and the ambient weather temperature. As a result of the wide numerical range of these parameters and various weather conditions, a large training database must be used for developing the models, which results in high-computational complexity of the algorithms used for training the models. In this paper, a novel algorithm for point to point prediction of the generated power based on the least squares support vector machine (LS-SVM) has been proposed which can handle the large training database with a very fewer deal of computation and benefits from reasonable accuracy and generalization capability.

This study investigated optical sensor system consist of sixteen light emitting diode (LED) in visible/near infrared region to detect palm oil fresh fruit bunch (FFB) quality. Practically, experience grader assessed FFB quality by its ripeness based on external features such as colour and number of detached fruitlets. However, different seed and plantation management resulting in FFB quality variation. Same external features not linearly correlate with FFB oil content that corresponding with industrial needs. The 660 nm LED is choosen to be used to estimate the oil content of FFB. Using linear discriminant analysis (LDA) with Mahalanobis distance, the accuracy of the systems is 79.8% and 88.2%. From 33 FFB oil content measurement, grader misclassified 4 out of 17 FFB as ripe FFB but with low oil content (<17.5%) and misclassified 7 out of 16 FFB as unripe but with high oil content (>=17.5%). Classifying model build from FFB from main plantation then tested to evaluate FFB from smallholder. Classification model generated from FFB oil content data showed more accurate result compared to model generated from visual inspection 66.7% compared to 52.1%. Model accuracies attained by Discriminant Analysis (DA) and k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) were 79.8% and 80.7%, respectively based on grader evaluation. Model accuracies based on FFB oil content was 88.2% for both classifying algorithms.

In present scenario, the high speed data transmission services has pushed limits for wireless communication network capacity, at same time multimedia transmission in real-time needs provision of QoS, therefore the network capacity and small cell coverage has comes with lots of challenges. Improving the channel capacity and coverage area within the available bandwidth is necessary to provide better QoS to users, and improved channel capacity for the FCUs and MCUs in network. In this paper, we are proposing an NQHN approach that incorporate with efficient power allocation, improving the channel capacity by optimized traffic scheduling process in a small cell HetNets scenario. This work efficiently handle the interference with maintaining the user QoS and the implemented power controller uses HeNB power as per the real time based approach for macro-cell and femto-cell. Moreover, we consider the real traffic scenario to check the performance of our proposed approach with respect to existing algorithm

Authorship attribution is a task to identify the writer of unknown text and categorize it to known writer. Writing style of each author is distinct and can be used for the discrimination. There are different parameters responsible for rectifying such changes. When the writing samples collected for an author when it belongs to small period, it can participate efficiently for identification of unknown sample. In this paper author identification problem considered where writing sample is not available on the same time period. Such evidences collected over long period of time. And character n-gram, word n-gram and pos n-gram features used to build the model. As they are contributing towards style of writer in terms of content as well as statistic characteristic of writing style. We applied support vector machine algorithm for classification. Effective results and outcome came out from the experiments. While discriminating among multiple authors, corpus selection and construction were the most tedious task which was implemented effectively. It is observed that accuracy varied on feature type. Word and character n-gram have shown good accuracy than PoS n-gram.

Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the effective standard for modeling object-oriented software systems. However, the ambiguity of semantics and the absence of consistency among UML diagrams lead to lack of precisely defining the requirements of a system. On the other hand, formal methods are techniques and tools use the mathematical notations, and they involve the precise syntax and semantics of the unambiguous software requirements specification. It applied in early stages of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Therefore, an integrated between UML specification and formal specification is required to reduce the requirements' ambiguity and error, and to improve the quality and security of software systems. This paper proposes an approach involves the combining UML use-case diagram and activity diagrams with Z language for formalization of Library Management System (LMS). The focus of this paper is on consistency between the UML diagrams to Z Schema, and then verified by using the Z / EVEs tool.

In this paper, we propose a method to predict cognitive load and its factors affecting the learning efficiency in programming learning from the learning behavior of learners. Generally, since the concepts of programming are difficult for learners, some of them suffer inappropriate cognitive load to understand them. Although teachers must keep cognitive load of such learners appropriate, it is difficult for them to find learners who has inappropriate cognitive load from a large number of learners. To find learners with inappropriate cognitive load, we construct models with the random forest algorithm, using learning behavior collected from learners solving fill-in-the-blank tests. An experiment shows the models can detect cognitive load for IL and GL along with their factors. Teachers must address adjustment of cognitive load of learners. This result clarifies the learning factors affecting cognitive load of learners, which enables teachers to address the adjustment with small burdens.
