Abstract Due to the development of transportation, population growth and industrial activities, air quality has become a major issue in urban areas. Poor air quality leads to rising health issues in the human’s life in many ways especially respiratory infections, heart disease, asthma, stroke and lung cancer. The contaminated air comprises harmful ingredients such as sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and particulate matter of PM10, PM2.5, and an Air Quality Index (AQI). These pollutant ingredients are very harmful to human’s health and also leads to death. So, it is necessary to develop a prediction model for air quality as regular on… More >

Abstract In image processing, one of the most important steps is image segmentation. The objects in remote sensing images often have to be detected in order to perform next steps in image processing. Remote sensing images usually have large size and various spatial resolutions. Thus, detecting objects in remote sensing images is very complicated. In this paper, we develop a model to detect objects in remote sensing images based on the combination of picture fuzzy clustering and MapReduce method (denoted as MPFC). Firstly, picture fuzzy clustering is applied to segment the input images. Then, MapReduce is used to reduce the runtime… More >

Abstract Big data is a term that refers to a set of data that, due to its largeness or complexity, cannot be stored or processed with one of the usual tools or applications for data management, and it has become a prominent word in recent years for the massive development of technology. Almost immediately thereafter, the term “big data mining” emerged, i.e., mining from big data even as an emerging and interconnected field of research. Classification is an important stage in data mining since it helps people make better decisions in a variety of situations, including scientific endeavors, biomedical research, and… More >

Abstract COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease of 2019) is caused by SARS-CoV2 (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2) and it was first diagnosed in December 2019 in China. As of 25th Aug 2021, there are 165 million confirmed COVID-19 positive cases and 4.4 million deaths globally. As of today, though there are approved COVID-19 vaccine candidates only 4 billion doses have been administered. Until 100% of the population is safe, no one is safe. Even though these vaccines can provide protection against getting seriously ill and dying from the disease, it does not provide 100% protection from getting infected and passing it on… More >

Abstract A context-aware service in a smart environment aims to supply services according to user situational information, which changes dynamically. Most existing context-aware systems provide context-aware services based on supervised algorithms. Reinforcement algorithms are another type of machine-learning algorithm that have been shown to be useful in dynamic environments through trial-and-error interactions. They also have the ability to build excellent self-adaptive systems. In this study, we aim to incorporate reinforcement algorithms (Q-learning) into a context-aware system to provide relevant services based on a user’s dynamic context. To accelerate the convergence of reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms and provide the correct services in… More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoTs) is apace growing, billions of IoT devices are connected to the Internet which communicate and exchange data among each other. Applications of IoT can be found in many fields of engineering and sciences such as healthcare, traffic, agriculture, oil and gas industries, and logistics. In logistics, the products which are to be transported may be sensitive and perishable, and require controlled environment. Most of the commercially available logistic containers are not integrated with IoT devices to provide controlled environment parameters inside the container and to transmit data to a remote server. This necessitates the need… More >

Abstract The paper presents a novel Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) Steganography system. The algorithm uses an animated (GIF) file format video to apply on, a secured and variable image partition scheme for data embedding. The secret data could be any character text, any image, an audio file, or a video file; that is converted in the form of bits. The proposed method uses a variable partition scheme structure for data embedding in the (GIF) file format video. The algorithm estimates the capacity of the cover (GIF) image frames to embed data bits. Our method built variable partition blocks in an empty… More >

Abstract The current pandemic highlights the significance and impact of air pollution on individuals. When it comes to climate sustainability, air pollution is a major challenge. Because of the distinctive nature, unpredictability, and great changeability in the reality of toxins and particulates, detecting air quality is a puzzling task. Simultaneously, the ability to predict or classify and monitor air quality is becoming increasingly important, particularly in urban areas, due to the well documented negative impact of air pollution on resident’s health and the environment. To better comprehend the current condition of air quality, this research proposes predicting air pollution levels from… More >

Abstract Today, many eye diseases jeopardize our everyday lives, such as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR), Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), and Glaucoma. Glaucoma is an incurable and unavoidable eye disease that damages the vision of optic nerves and quality of life. Classification of Glaucoma has been an active field of research for the past ten years. Several approaches for Glaucoma classification are established, beginning with conventional segmentation methods and feature-extraction to deep-learning techniques such as Convolution Neural Networks (CNN). In contrast, CNN classifies the input images directly using tuned parameters of convolution and pooling layers by extracting features. But, the volume of training… More >

Abstract Smartphone devices particularly Android devices are in use by billions of people everywhere in the world. Similarly, this increasing rate attracts mobile botnet attacks which is a network of interconnected nodes operated through the command and control (C&C) method to expand malicious activities. At present, mobile botnet attacks launched the Distributed denial of services (DDoS) that causes to steal of sensitive data, remote access, and spam generation, etc. Consequently, various approaches are defined in the literature to detect mobile botnet attacks using static or dynamic analysis. In this paper, a novel hybrid model, the combination of static and dynamic methods… More >
