Abstract By integrating advanced digital technologies such as cloud computing and the Internet of Things in sensor measurement, information communication, and other fields, the digital DC distribution network can efficiently and reliably access Distributed Generator (DG) and Energy Storage Systems (ESS), exhibiting significant advantages in terms of controllability and meeting requirements of Plug-and-Play (PnP) operations. However, during device plug-in and -out processes, improper system parameters may lead to small-signal stability issues. Therefore, before executing PnP operations, conducting stability analysis and adjusting parameters swiftly is crucial. This study introduces a four-stage strategy for parameter optimization to enhance… More >

Abstract Handwritten character recognition becomes one of the challenging research matters. More studies were presented for recognizing letters of various languages. The availability of Arabic handwritten characters databases was confined. Almost a quarter of a billion people worldwide write and speak Arabic. More historical books and files indicate a vital data set for many Arab nations written in Arabic. Recently, Arabic handwritten character recognition (AHCR) has grabbed the attention and has become a difficult topic for pattern recognition and computer vision (CV). Therefore, this study develops fireworks optimization with the deep learning-based AHCR (FWODL-AHCR) technique. The… More >

Abstract The recent development of the Internet of Things (IoTs) resulted in the growth of IoT-based DDoS attacks. The detection of Botnet in IoT systems implements advanced cybersecurity measures to detect and reduce malevolent botnets in interconnected devices. Anomaly detection models evaluate transmission patterns, network traffic, and device behaviour to detect deviations from usual activities. Machine learning (ML) techniques detect patterns signalling botnet activity, namely sudden traffic increase, unusual command and control patterns, or irregular device behaviour. In addition, intrusion detection systems (IDSs) and signature-based techniques are applied to recognize known malware signatures related to botnets.… More >

Abstract In this work, we aim to introduce some modifications to the Anam-Net deep neural network (DNN) model for segmenting optic cup (OC) and optic disc (OD) in retinal fundus images to estimate the cup-to-disc ratio (CDR). The CDR is a reliable measure for the early diagnosis of Glaucoma. In this study, we developed a lightweight DNN model for OC and OD segmentation in retinal fundus images. Our DNN model is based on modifications to Anam-Net, incorporating an anamorphic depth embedding block. To reduce computational complexity, we employ a fixed filter size for all convolution layers… More >

Abstract In this paper, we introduce a novel Multi-scale and Auto-tuned Semi-supervised Deep Subspace Clustering (MAS-DSC) algorithm, aimed at addressing the challenges of deep subspace clustering in high-dimensional real-world data, particularly in the field of medical imaging. Traditional deep subspace clustering algorithms, which are mostly unsupervised, are limited in their ability to effectively utilize the inherent prior knowledge in medical images. Our MAS-DSC algorithm incorporates a semi-supervised learning framework that uses a small amount of labeled data to guide the clustering process, thereby enhancing the discriminative power of the feature representations. Additionally, the multi-scale feature extraction… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Sentence classification is the process of categorizing a sentence based on the context of the sentence. Sentence categorization requires more semantic highlights than other tasks, such as dependence parsing, which requires more syntactic elements. Most existing strategies focus on the general semantics of a conversation without involving the context of the sentence, recognizing the progress and comparing impacts. An ensemble pre-trained language model was taken up here to classify the conversation sentences from the conversation corpus. The conversational sentences are classified into four categories: information, question, directive, and commission. These classification label sequences are for… More >

Abstract Fraud of credit cards is a major issue for financial organizations and individuals. As fraudulent actions become more complex, a demand for better fraud detection systems is rising. Deep learning approaches have shown promise in several fields, including detecting credit card fraud. However, the efficacy of these models is heavily dependent on the careful selection of appropriate hyperparameters. This paper introduces models that integrate deep learning models with hyperparameter tuning techniques to learn the patterns and relationships within credit card transaction data, thereby improving fraud detection. Three deep learning models: AutoEncoder (AE), Convolution Neural Network… More >

Abstract Computational linguistics is the scientific and engineering discipline related to comprehending written and spoken language from a computational perspective and building artefacts that effectively process and produce language, either in bulk or in a dialogue setting. This paper develops a Chaotic Bird Swarm Optimization with deep ensemble learning based Arabic poem classification and dictarization (CBSOEDL-APCD) technique. The presented CBSOEDL-APCD technique involves the classification and dictarization of Arabic text into Arabic poetries and prose. Primarily, the CBSOEDL-APCD technique carries out data pre-processing to convert it into a useful format. Besides, the ensemble deep learning (EDL) model More >

Abstract Abstractive text summarization is crucial to produce summaries of natural language with basic concepts from large text documents. Despite the achievement of English language-related abstractive text summarization models, the models that support Arabic language text summarization are fewer in number. Recent abstractive Arabic summarization models encounter different issues that need to be resolved. Syntax inconsistency is a crucial issue resulting in the low-accuracy summary. A new technique has achieved remarkable outcomes by adding topic awareness in the text summarization process that guides the module by imitating human awareness. The current research article presents Abstractive Arabic… More >

Abstract Automatic sleep staging of neonates is essential for monitoring their brain development and maturity of the nervous system. EEG based neonatal sleep staging provides valuable information about an infant’s growth and health, but is challenging due to the unique characteristics of EEG and lack of standardized protocols. This study aims to develop and compare 18 machine learning models using Automated Machine Learning (autoML) technique for accurate and reliable multi-channel EEG-based neonatal sleep-wake classification. The study investigates autoML feasibility without extensive manual selection of features or hyperparameter tuning. The data is obtained from neonates at post-menstrual… More >
