    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.30, No.3, pp. 743-753, 2021, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2021.019329
    Abstract In this paper, we present an oneM2M-compliant system including an artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) edge device whose principal function is to estimate human poses by using two PoseNet models built on MobileNet v1 and ResNet-50 backbone architectures. Although MobileNet v1 is generally known to be much faster but less accurate than ResNet50, it is necessary to analyze the performances of whole PoseNet models carefully and select one of them suitable for the AIoT edge device. For this reason, we first investigate the computational complexity of the models about their neural network layers and parameters and then compare their performances… More >

    Abstract Lung cancer is a poorly understood disease. Smokers may develop lung cancer due to the inhalation of carcinogenic substances while smoking, but non-smokers may develop this disease as well. Lung cancer can spread to other parts of the body and this process is called metastasis. Because the lung cancer is difficult to identify in the initial stages. The objective of this work is to reduce the mortality rate of the disease by identifying it at an earlier stage based on the existing symptoms. Artificial intelligence plays active roles in tasks such as entropy extraction through preprocessing strategies, ordinal to cardinal… More >

    Muhammad Alyas Khan1, Mushtaq Ali1, Mohsin Shah2, Toqeer Mahmood3, Muneer Ahmad4, NZ Jhanjhi5, Mohammad Arif Sobhan Bhuiyan6,*, Emad Sami Jaha7
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.30, No.3, pp. 771-785, 2021, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2021.018039
    Abstract Fungi disease affects walnut trees worldwide because it damages the canopies of the trees and can easily spread to neighboring trees, resulting in low quality and less yield. The fungal disease can be treated relatively easily, and the main goal is preventing its spread by automatic early-detection systems. Recently, machine learning techniques have achieved promising results in many applications in the agricultural field, including plant disease detection. In this paper, an automatic machine learning-based detection method for identifying walnut diseases is proposed. The proposed method first resizes a leaf’s input image and pre-processes it using intensity adjustment and histogram equalization.… More >

    Radio Labeling Associated with a Class of Commutative Rings Using Zero-Divisor Graph

    Azeem Haider1,*, Ali N.A. Koam1, Ali Ahmad2
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.30, No.3, pp. 787-794, 2021, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2021.019391
    Abstract Graph labeling is useful in networks because each transmitter has a different transmission capacity to send or receive wired or wireless links. An interference of signals can occur when transmitters that are close together receive close frequencies. This problem has been modeled mathematically in the radio labeling problem on graphs, where vertices represent transmitters and edges indicate closeness of the transmitters. For this purpose, each vertex is labeled with a unique positive integer, and to minimize the interference, the difference between maximum and minimum used labels has to be minimized. A radio labeling for a graph is a function from… More >

    Computational Methods for Non-Linear Equations with Some Real-World Applications and Their Graphical Analysis

    Amir Naseem1, M.A. Rehman1, Thabet Abdeljawad2,3,4,*
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.30, No.3, pp. 805-819, 2021, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2021.019164
    (This article belongs to this Special Issue: Recent Trends in Computational Methods for Differential Equations)
    Abstract In this article, we propose some novel computational methods in the form of iteration schemes for computing the roots of non-linear scalar equations in a new way. The construction of these iteration schemes is purely based on exponential series expansion. The convergence criterion of the suggested schemes is also given and certified that the newly developed iteration schemes possess quartic convergence order. To analyze the suggested schemes numerically, several test examples have been given and then solved. These examples also include some real-world problems such as van der Wall’s equation, Plank’s radiation law and kinetic problem equation whose numerical results… More >

    Abstract The advancement in electronic devices and communication technologies in social media have introduced major changes in today’s communication and people have accepted such communicational habits at a rapid pace. The changes involve the way people started interacting with each other, and modern mean of discovering new groups of people, and individuals with similar mindsets, mutual interests, and ideas to share with. As far as the communities are concerned, there are so many social drives (such as “Say No to Plastic”) that need to be discussed on a certain platform for their promotion. Although, it’s quit is challenging, but with the… More >

    Robust Optimal Proportional–Integral Controller for an Uncertain Unstable Delay System: Wind Process Application

    Rihem Farkh1,2, Yasser Fouad1,*, Haykel Marouani1
    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.30, No.3, pp. 837-851, 2021, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2021.018214
    Abstract In industrial practice, certain processes are unstable, such as different types of reactors, distillation columns, and combustion systems. To ensure greater maneuverability and improve the speed of response command, certain systems in the military and aviation fields are purposely configured to be unstable. These systems are often more difficult to control than stable systems and are of particular interest to designers and control engineers. Despite all advances in process control over the past six decades, the proportional–integral–derivative (PID) controller is still the most common. The main reasons are the simplicity, robustness, and successful applications provided by PID-based control structures. The… More >

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.30, No.3, pp. 869-879, 2021, DOI:10.32604/iasc.2021.016761
    Abstract Recent advances in the development of image denoising applications for eliminating the various sources of noise in digital images have employed hardware platforms based on field programmable gate arrays for attaining speed and efficiency, which are essential factors in real-time applications. However, image denoising providing for maximum denoising performance, speed, and efficiency on these platforms is subject to constant innovation. To this end, the present work proposes a high-throughput fixed-point adaptive edge noise filter architecture to denoise digital images with additive white Gaussian noise in realtime using a nonlinear modified pixel-likeness weighted-frame technique. The proposed architecture works in two stages.… More >
