Evaluation of IoT-Based Computational Intelligence Tools for DNA Sequence Analysis in Bioinformatics
In contemporary age, Computational Intelligence (CI) performs an essential
role in the interpretation of big biological data considering that it could
provide all of the molecular biology and DNA sequencing computations. For this
purpose, many researchers have attempted to implement different tools in this
field and have competed aggressively. Hence, determining the best of them among
the enormous number of available tools is not an easy task, selecting the one
which accomplishes big data in the concise time and with no error can
significantly improve the scientist's contribution in the bioinformatics field.
This study uses different analysis and methods such as Fuzzy, Dempster-Shafer,
Murphy and Entropy Shannon to provide the most significant and reliable
evaluation of IoT-based computational intelligence tools for DNA sequence
analysis. The outcomes of this study can be advantageous to the bioinformatics
community, researchers and experts in big biological data
Modeling and Recognition of Smart Grid Faults by a Combined Approach of Dissimilarity Learning and One-Class Classification
Detecting faults in electrical power grids is of paramount importance, either
from the electricity operator and consumer viewpoints. Modern electric power
grids (smart grids) are equipped with smart sensors that allow to gather
real-time information regarding the physical status of all the component
elements belonging to the whole infrastructure (e.g., cables and related
insulation, transformers, breakers and so on). In real-world smart grid
systems, usually, additional information that are related to the operational
status of the grid itself are collected such as meteorological information.
Designing a suitable recognition (discrimination) model of faults in a
real-world smart grid system is hence a challenging task. This follows from the
heterogeneity of the information that actually determine a typical fault
condition. The second point is that, for synthesizing a recognition model, in
practice only the conditions of observed faults are usually meaningful.
Therefore, a suitable recognition model should be synthesized by making use of
the observed fault conditions only. In this paper, we deal with the problem of
modeling and recognizing faults in a real-world smart grid system, which
supplies the entire city of Rome, Italy. Recognition of faults is addressed by
following a combined approach of multiple dissimilarity measures customization
and one-class classification techniques. We provide here an in-depth study
related to the available data and to the models synthesized by the proposed
one-class classifier. We offer also a comprehensive analysis of the fault
recognition results by exploiting a fuzzy set based reliability decision rule
A Review of Fault Diagnosing Methods in Power Transmission Systems
Transient stability is important in power systems. Disturbances like faults need to be segregated to restore transient stability. A comprehensive review of fault diagnosing methods in the power transmission system is presented in this paper. Typically, voltage and current samples are deployed for analysis. Three tasks/topics; fault detection, classification, and location are presented separately to convey a more logical and comprehensive understanding of the concepts. Feature extractions, transformations with dimensionality reduction methods are discussed. Fault classification and location techniques largely use artificial intelligence (AI) and signal processing methods. After the discussion of overall methods and concepts, advancements and future aspects are discussed. Generalized strengths and weaknesses of different AI and machine learning-based algorithms are assessed. A comparison of different fault detection, classification, and location methods is also presented considering features, inputs, complexity, system used and results. This paper may serve as a guideline for the researchers to understand different methods and techniques in this field
Effective retrieval and new indexing method for case based reasoning: Application in chemical process design
In this paper we try to improve the retrieval step for case based reasoning for preliminary design. This improvement deals with three major parts of our CBR system. First, in the preliminary design step, some uncertainties like imprecise or unknown values remain in the description of the problem, because they need a deeper analysis to be withdrawn. To deal with this issue, the faced problem description is soften with the fuzzy sets theory. Features are described with a central value, a percentage of imprecision and a relation with respect to the central value. These additional data allow us to build a domain of possible values for each attributes. With this representation, the calculation of the similarity function is impacted, thus the characteristic function is used to calculate the local similarity between two features. Second, we focus our attention on the main goal of the retrieve step in CBR to find relevant cases for adaptation. In this second part, we discuss the assumption of similarity to find the more appropriated case. We put in highlight that in some situations this classical similarity must be improved with further knowledge to facilitate case adaptation. To avoid failure during the adaptation step, we implement a method that couples similarity measurement with adaptability one, in order to approximate the cases utility more accurately. The latter gives deeper information for the reusing of cases. In a last part, we present a generic indexing technique for the base, and a new algorithm for the research of relevant cases in the memory. The sphere indexing algorithm is a domain independent index that has performances equivalent to the decision tree ones. But its main strength is that it puts the current problem in the center of the research area avoiding boundaries issues. All these points are discussed and exemplified through the preliminary design of a chemical engineering unit operation
