Abstract

Corona Virus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) is currently the most threatening and major medical challenge in the world. COVID-19 can be detected using X-ray and CT-scan images of the patient's lungs. With the use of deep learning and neural networks, the process of classifying the patient's CT-scan and X-ray images can be expedited. In this paper, we implemented convolutional neural networks (CNN) for detection of COVID-19 in X-ray and CT-scan images of lungs. Several CNN architectures like VGG16, ResNet-50, Inception-v3, DenseNet 201, Xception, and InceptionResnet-v2 have been implemented and comparative analysis is presented. DenseNet 201 CNN architecture is found to be most accurate in detecting COVID-19 for both X-ray and CT-scan images. The quantitative results suggest promising results for the COVID-19 detection task.

Abstract

Flight controllers play vital role in stability, performance and control operations of a drone throughout the flight. Inappropriate flight controller selection can jeopardize both the drone and its payload, making it imperative to address the meticulous choice of drone flight controllers for specific applications. This work delves into the behavior of various flight controllers when tested in a quadcopter configuration under consistent structural and environmental conditions. The research not only examines the selection of flight controllers but also explores the challenges faced by amateur drone operators during setup and flight, offering practical techniques to overcome them. Among the various array of flight controllers available in the market, namely KK2.1.5, QQ super thunder, APM, DJI NAZA Mlite, and Pixhawk, have been used in this experiment. Comprehensive experiments were conducted using identical drone configurations to elucidate the precise difficulties associated with each flight controller. The results revealed instances of suboptimal stability, communication issues, and troubleshooting errors for certain controllers. Notably, KK2.1.5 and QQ super thunder exhibited non-responsiveness when utilized in hexacopters and octacopters. Ultimately, this research underscores the NAZA flight controller’s suitability for novice pilots among the tested options. The insights presented herein serve as a valuable resource for researchers seeking to select the most appropriate flight controller based on their piloting proficiency and for resolving challenges encountered during drone operations.

Abstract

Kidney illness constitutes a category of many serious persistent diseases that can affect an individual. Early diagnosis of this condition is critical for effective therapy. Kidney tumours are the 2nd most common type of urological tumour. They come in a variety of forms, the majority of which are cancerous. In comparison to the laborious and lengthy conventional evaluation, deep learning’s autonomous detection techniques may reduce diagnostic time, enhance the precision of tests, lower expenses, and minimize the radiologist’s burden. It is difficult for clinicians to distinguish kidney cancers from renal Computerized Tomography (CT) images. During an operation, the precise division of kidney tumours can assist physicians in determining tumour intricacy and severity. However, due to their variety, segmenting renal tumours mechanically might be challenging. Therefore, an intellectual kidney tumour segmentation and classification model is implemented to recognize benign and malignant tumours at an early stage. To execute this procedure, the input CT images are gathered from standard websites. Then these images are given to the proposed 3D-Trans-Residual DenseUnet++ (3D-TR-DUnet++) network for the segmentation process. With the help of the segmentation process, doctors can identify the normal and abnormal regions in the kidney. The segmented images are then preceded by the classification stage. To classify kidney tumours, a deep learning-based method called Adaptive and Attentive Residual Densenet with Gated Recurrent Unit (AA-RD-GRU) is developed. Here, the parameters from this network are optimized via the recommended Modified Crayfish Optimization Algorithm (MCOA). The precise segmentation and classification of tumours in the kidney help to provide better treatments at the correct time. The segmentation and classification results are contrasted with other deep learning networks as well as various optimization algorithms.

Abstract

Kidney is one of the significant organs in the human body which performs filtering out blood, balances fluid, removes the waste, maintains the level of electrolytes and hormone levels. So, any disorder or dysfunction in kidney needs to be detected on time in order to preserve life. Segmentation on kidney tumor in medical field is a critical task and many conventional methods have been employed for early prediction of kidney abnormalities but with limitations such as high cost, extended time for computation and analysis with huge amount of data. Due to all such problems, the prediction rate and accuracy has reduced considerably. In order to overcome the challenges, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has penetrated into the field of medicine particularly in the renal department. The evolution of AI in kidney therapies improve the process of diagnosis through several Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) algorithms. It has the capability of improving and influencing on the status with its capacity of learning from the massive data and apply them accordingly to differentiate on the circumstances. The storage of larger data and segmentation with AI assistance are highly helpful for the analysis of occurrence of the disease. AI algorithms have predicted the severity of tumor stages with effective accuracies. Hence, this paper provides a critical review of different AI based algorithms being used in the kidney tumor prognostication. Its numerous benefits in field of segmentation have been researched from the existing works and provides an insight on the contribution of AI in the kidney disease prediction.

Abstract

The maximum amount of sensor energy is consumed during broadcasting. Hence in order to make delay with the network lifetime of a wireless sensor network (WSN), there is a need of optimum utilization of sensor energy. Scheduling in media access control (MAC) layer plays a critical role in the designing of WSN to avoid collision and conserve more energy. The Distributed energy aware MAC (DE-MAC) is one such efficient and feasible MAC protocol that addresses the energy management issues in WSN. This work proposes an extension of DE-MAC framework by allocating varying period slots to the nodes based on their residual energy level. Energy of all the nodes is exchanged at regular intervals. Accordingly, the nodes with low energy are allocated less time slots for broadcast and are made to sleep for more time. Simulation is carried out using NS2 (network simulator 2) and the efficiency and performance results are compared with DE-MAC for analysis. Improvement in performance for various parameters such as residual energy, throughput, and packet delivery ratio can be observed.

Abstract

Several popular time-frequency techniques, including the Wigner-Ville distribution, smoothed pseudo-Wigner-Ville distribution, wavelet transform, synchrosqueezing transform, Hilbert-Huang transform, and Gabor-Wigner transform, are investigated to determine how well they can identify damage to structures. In this work, a synchroextracting transform (SET) based on the short-time Fourier transform is proposed for estimating post-earthquake structural damage. The performance of SET for artificially generated signals and actual earthquake signals is examined with existing methods. Amongst other tested techniques, SET improves frequency resolution to a great extent by lowering the influence of smearing along the time-frequency plane. Hence, interpretation and readability with the proposed method are improved, and small changes in the time-varying frequency characteristics of the damaged buildings are easily detected through the SET method.

Abstract

Anemia is the most common blood disorder where the blood lacks a sufficient amount of red blood cells which results in an insufficient amount of oxygen being supplied to the body tissues. The condition is most commonly seen to occur in women during their pregnancy and children in the age group of 9 to 18 months and is not easily detected at the early stages. This survey paper depicts different machine learning (ML) approaches used for the analysis of anemia. Further, it also highlights the use of the ML approach for determining the prevalence of anemia, categorizing the level/type of anemia among patients, young children, and women of reproductive age (including pregnant women). It is observed that amongst the ML approaches used by the researcher’s random forest (RF) and decision tree (DT) algorithms had outperformed the other algorithms for the analysis of anemia.

Abstract

Anemia disease is a common health problem in emerging countries and constitutes a challenge to public health in India as well. It affects persons of all age groups, especially women and children. India has the maximum total prevalence of anemia at 39.86%. According to WHO, about 32.4 million pregnant women suffer from anemia disease. The NFHS-4 provides crucial date related to anemic status in India. The prevalence percentage of anemia in pregnant women in India using the NFHS-4 survey remained 50.2%. Machine learning algorithms and data mining techniques open new doors of opportunities for precise prediction of Anemia disease. Still, the resourceful processing of such huge data is exciting, so we need a system that infers from the data. ML methods make systems learn itself. In this paper, we have presented a survey of ML algorithms used for prediction of anemia in pregnant women from NFHS-4.

Abstract

The chapter portrays a new development in the field of embedded systems. It showcases the combination of Machine Learning algorithms and low-memory microcontrollers (ESP32-CAM). The uniqueness of this idea lies in the fact that Machine Learning is generally perceived as a processor-intensive task that requires high memory and storage. However, as seen in this chapter, one may soon realize how wrong this notion is with emerging technologies that are taking over the globe. This project portrays the successful implementation of a binary colour classification model on the ESP32-CAM with 68% accuracy post-training result with a mere 15 images of each colour. Machine learning has increased over the years. Some applications include image classification, object detection, and question-answering. This work merely puts out awareness in this domain and is hopeful that dedicated efforts towards it can solve many industrial problems.

Abstract

A huge amount of wastewater is generated from various municipal and industrial units across the world. Because of increasing contaminant levels in the water, access to clean water has been a major concern all over the world. As a result, there is a huge demand for freshwater resources, as well as an urgent need for clean recycled wastewater. Conventional wastewater treatment plants give major attention to wastewater treatment rather than resource recovery. A transition from a linear economy to a circular economy could provide a better way to recover beneficial resources from wastewater, such as nutrients, energy, and other valued products. Bio and bio-based hybrid processes appear to be a sustainable and potential alternative for wastewater treatment, as well as resource recovery. The efficacy of many biological and bio-based integrated treatment techniques is examined in depth here, with a focus on resource recovery.

Abstract

This article deals with the design and development of a seaweed-based paper battery, synthesized using different material coatings. Batteries have a high potential to power up the next generation of medical devices, electronics and hybrid vehicles but it require high working capacity. With the presence of several deficiencies like a regular, fluctuating voltage, spill out and damage issues, itching and irritation during human direct contact with wet and non-paper batteries, a need for dry and paper-based batteries has arisen. The design and fabrication of paper-based batteries with enhanced electrochemical and structural stability play a pivotal role to fix the above-mentioned problems. A battery made up of seaweed paper offers remarkable capacity with better performance and also helps to avoid the use of wood-based paper. The battery has been prepared with different materials of cathode and electrolyte, which are further tested for identifying an optimum match in terms of generated voltage. A biodegradability test and toxicity test were performed which ensured the eco-friendly nature of the proposed battery. The proposed battery is made of nanocomposites, which can pack more power into smaller spaces. Moreover, it is found that there is a reduction of weight by 58%, an enhancement of 16.7% in voltage capacity and eco-friendly compared to conventional AA 1.5–3.5 V Li-on battery.

Abstract

Industrial machine-vision (MV) applications require high-speed stitching of low-textural images from multiple high-resolution cameras for Field-of-View expansion. The most vital step in the stitching process is the effective and efficient extraction of features, which becomes challenging for low-textural images. This paper presents a comparative study of five popular feature descriptor algorithms for image stitching viz. Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT), Speeded Up Robust Feature (SURF), Oriented Fast and Rotated BRIEF (ORB), Binary Robust invariant scalable keypoints (BRISK), and Accelerated-KAZE (AKAZE). The focus of this paper is to present a study of the performance comparison among these feature extraction methods for low-textural images from real-time steel surface inspection systems. Primarily, synchronized images of steel rolled at room temperatures are obtained from a two-camera network with overlapping regions. Feature descriptor algorithms extract features from two images with an overlapping area and further match the features using K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) algorithm. The performance of the five feature descriptor algorithms is evaluated using a low-textural dataset that consists of a set of 177 images captured from two cameras placed at a fixed distance from each other. The efficiency of these algorithms is quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated using execution time, sensitivity, and specificity. Finally, this paper provides guidelines for future research on problems with FOV expansion in industrial scenarios.

Abstract

Across the globe, vehicle collision on roads results in the death/disabilities of people. Moreover, it results in substantial monetary burden to the concerened people and other stakeholdes. Generally, the accidents take place due to ignorance while crossing the lane and use of electronic gadgets. Government is spending a lot of money to create awareness and encourage people to follow traffic rules. Over the last two decades, significant reserach has been carrried out in traffic management system. Generally, sensor based methods are utilized to track traffic violations. These methods need appropriate infrastructure. In this work, authors have proposed a machine-vision based method to recognize the traffic rule(s) violators on highways and at toll tax plazas with the help of some important descriptors of the images and classification algorithms. This paper presents a feature extraction based system for lane and traffic rule voiation detection and tracking using low cost Raspberry Pi hardware.The experimental work suggest that, Grab cut and Hough transform techniques performed better on test image dataset to identify vehicle lane on highways. Further, combination of RootSIFT with Flann-index matcher gives superior results (accuracy of 95.3%) as compared to other feature extraction and matchers on the given dataset for detection of traffic rule violation and tracking of vehicles. The average computation time of 0.13s for the obtained results. Further, Haarcascade algorithm was used to detect mobile phone usage while riding vehicle and achieved 91% accuracy on collected datset on Raspberry pi 2(B) hardware and further vehicles detected in traffic rule violation undergoes for license plate detection and challan generation to penalize the on defaulters.

Abstract

There is a damage to the health of civil structures over the time due to aging and loading effects i.e., wind,earthquakes etc. To identify these hidden damages at the earliest, some reliable damage detection techniques are required. In addition, it becomes essential to monitor the performance of structural integrity and it results in the increased life span of the structures. In this paper, the average energy entropy scheme based on the discrete wavelet transform is proposed to detect incipient damage in the structures. The measured response is first decomposed into a set of wavelet components and average energy entropy is computed. The proposed method is applied to the simulated response of the beam obtained with different crack levels, and performance is compared to the approximate entropy. The results obtained from the proposed method illustrate a consistent and reliable damage indicator in comparison with the existing method.

Abstract

The integration of IoT with the cloud infrastructure is essential for designing smart applications. However, such integration may lead to security issues. Authentication and session key establishment is an essential security requirement for secure communication between IoT devices and cloud servers. For evaluating authentication key agreement schemes, the extended Canetti–Krawczyk (eCK) adversary model is regarded to be a more strict and relevant adversary model. Many schemes for authenticated key exchange between IoT devices and cloud servers have been proposed in the literature but have been assessed under Dolev and Yoa (DY) adversary model. Recently, Rostampour et al. introduced an ECC-based approach for enabling authentication between IoT devices and cloud servers that is secure and robust to various attacks under the Dolev and Yoa adversary model. In this paper, a detailed review and the automated security verification of the Rostampour et al. scheme are carried out under the eCK adversary model using Scyther-Compromise. The validation indicates that the scheme is not secure and is susceptible to various attacks under the eCK adversary model. To overcome the limitation of the Rostampour et al. scheme, a design of an ECC-based scheme for authentication between IoT devices and cloud servers under the eCK adversary model is proposed. The Scyther verification indicates that the scheme is safe under the eCK adversary model. The soundness of the correctness of the proposed scheme has been analyzed using BAN logic. Comparative analysis indicates that the scheme is resilient under the eCK adversary model with an energy overhead of 278.16 mJ for a resource constraint IoT device and a communication overhead of 1,408 bits.

Abstract

Shadow leads to failure of moving target positioning, segmentation, tracking, and classification in the video surveillance system thus shadow detection and removal is essential for further computer vision process. The existing state-of-the-art methods for dynamic shadow detection have produced a high discrimination rate but a poor detection rate (foreground pixels are classified as shadow pixels). This paper proposes an effective method for dynamic shadow detection and removal based on intensity ratio along with frame difference, gamma correction, and morphology operations. The performance of the proposed method has been tested on two outdoor ATON datasets, namely, highway-I and highway-III for vehicle tracking systems. The proposed method has produced a discrimination rate of 89.07% and a detection rate of 80.79% for highway-I video sequences. Similarly, for a highway-III video sequence, the discrimination rate of 85.60% and detection rate of 84.05% have been obtained. Investigational outcomes show that the proposed method is the simple, steadiest, and robust for dynamic shadow detection on the dataset used in this work.

Abstract

This paper presents an approach to segment the light microscopic images of hardwood species and then extract only the vessel elements out of the images. In this work, an effort was made to propose a platform-independent tool based on simple digital image processing technique to quantify wood conduits (especially vessel elements at present). A prototype model was developed and tested on several microscopic images prepared at the xylarium (DDw) of the Wood Anatomy Discipline of the Forest Research Institute, Dehradun, India. The investigation of the experimental work suggests that for most of the images, with the help of appropriate parameter selection, the vessel elements were extracted. In one case, the identified vessel element area was in fact the area of vessel element plus the surrounding parenchyma elements area. Close observation of the aforementioned object in original color (RGB) image suggests that the parenchyma elements surrounding the vessel elements have higher intensity level, in contrast to other parenchyma elements. This happened because an intensity-based thresholding approach was used for converting an RGB image to a binary image. Further, along with the extraction of vessel elements, the proposed model is capable of computing the hydraulic conductivity and lumen resistivity of the vessel elements.

Abstract

The texture of an image plays an important role in identification and classification of images. The hardwood species of an image contains four key elements namely: vessels (popularly known as pores in cross-section view), fibres, parenchyma's and rays, useful in its identification and classification. Further, the arrangements of all these elements posses texture rich features. Thus, in this work investigation of existing texture feature extraction techniques for the classification of hardwood species have been done. The texture features are extracted from greyscale images of hardwood species to reduce the computational complexity. Further, linear support vector machine (SVM), radial basis function (RBF) kernel SVM, random forest (RF) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) have been employed as classifiers to investigate the efficacy of the texture feature extraction techniques. The classification accuracy of the existing texture descriptors has been compared. Further, principal component analysis (PCA) and minimal-redundancy-maximal-relevance (mRMR) feature selection method is employed to select the best subset of feature vector data. The PCA reduced feature vector data of co-occurrence of adjacent local binary pattern (CoALBP24) texture feature extraction technique has attained maximum classification accuracy of 96.33 ± 1.14% with the help of LDA classifier.

Abstract

This paper presents an approach for generating a binary wavelet transform-based completed local binary pattern (BWTCLBP) texture descriptor to improve the classification accuracy of microscopic images of hardwood species. Firstly, gray-level slicing method is used to obtain eight (b0–b7) bit planes from grayscale image. Then, the two-dimensional binary wavelet transform (2D-BWT) decomposes each of the most significant bit-plane (b7) images up to the fifth scale of decomposition. The texture descriptors are then acquired from each of the subimages up to the five scales of decomposition. Further, two variants of support vector machine (SVM), linear SVM and radial basis function kernel SVM, were employed as classifiers. The classification accuracy of the proposed and existing texture descriptors was compared. The BWT-based uniform completed local binary pattern (BWTCLBPu2) texture descriptor achieved the best classification accuracy of 95.07 ± 0.72% at the third scale of decomposition. The classification accuracy is produced by linear SVM classifier for full feature (1416) vector data. In order to overcome the effect of curse of dimensionality, the minimal-redundancy–maximal-relevance feature selection method is employed to select the best subset of feature vector data. This approach has resulted in improved classification accuracy of 96.60 ± 0.80% (450) by linear SVM classifier.

Abstract

In this work, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) based hybrid texture feature extraction techniques have been used to categorize the microscopic images of hardwood species into 75 different classes. Initially, the DWT has been employed to decompose the image up to 7 levels using Daubechies (db3) wavelet as decomposition filter. Further, first-order statistics (FOS) and four variants of local binary pattern (LBP) descriptors are used to acquire distinct features of these images at various levels. The linear support vector machine (SVM), radial basis function (RBF) kernel SVM and random forest classifiers have been employed for classification. The classification accuracy obtained with state-of-the-art and DWT based hybrid texture features using various classifiers are compared. The DWT based FOS-uniform local binary pattern (DWTFOSLBPu2) texture features at the 4th level of image decomposition have produced best classification accuracy of 97.67 ± 0.79% and 98.40 ± 064% for grayscale and RGB images, respectively, using linear SVM classifier. Reduction in feature dataset by minimal redundancy maximal relevance (mRMR) feature selection method is achieved and the best classification accuracy of 99.00 ± 0.79% and 99.20 ± 0.42% have been obtained for DWT based FOS-LBP histogram Fourier features (DWTFOSLBP-HF) technique at the 5th and 6th levels of image decomposition for grayscale and RGB images, respectively, using linear SVM classifier. The DWTFOSLBP-HF features selected with mRMR method has also established superiority amongst the DWT based hybrid texture feature extraction techniques for randomly divided database into different proportions of training and test datasets.

Abstract

This paper presents a texture feature based approach for hardwood species classification. The three existing feature extraction techniques such as local binary pattern (LBP), local configuration pattern (LCP) and local phase quantization (LPQ) are integrated here with Gaussian image pyramid (GIP) which results in improvement of classification accuracy. The texture features are extracted at seven different decomposition levels generated by the GIP. These texture features are fed as input to linear support vector machine (SVM) classifier that uses 10-fold cross validation approach of classification. The results of combination of GIP decomposition with individual texture feature extraction techniques and linear SVM classifier have been compared. The comparison yields that Gaussian image pyramid based local phase quantization (GPLPQ) texture feature extraction technique using third (3rd) level of image decomposition results in the best classification accuracy of 98.60% for hardwood species. The proposed integration of GIP and texture feature extraction techniques also proves to be an effective tool of classification for texture surface database. For texture surface database, Gaussian image pyramid based rotation invariant uniform local configuration pattern (GPLCPriu2) has achieved 98.00% classification accuracy.

Abstract

Comfort is an important consideration in passenger vehicles provided by a suspension system. The suspension system must be associated with the vehicle body to improve comfort for the passenger. The active suspension system (ASS) has been introduced to perform this task. Moreover, the sliding mode controller (SMC) is well known for its continuous control signals. This paper proposes the Bayesian-based propor- tional resonant sliding mode controller (B-PRSMC) and two degrees of the freedom- proportional resonant controller (2d-f-PR) to stabilize passenger and ride comfort. The B-PRSMC is used for examining system states under varying road disturbances based on the Bayesian theorem. After examining the system state, the system performance is con- trolled by the 2d-f-PR controller. The proposed method is performed on Matlab, and the results are taken regarding body acceleration, body travel and suspension deflection. The mastery of proposed method is estimated under different road profiles. The comparative analysis demonstrates that the suggested controller enhances ride and passenger comfort in varied road profiles due to the combination of B-PRSMC and 2d-f-PR controllers.

Abstract

With the revolution in industry 4.0, the applications of the Internet of Things (IoT) have wide innovation in the commercial and industrial domains. The significant applications of IoT are deployed in sectors such as embedded systems, sensing technologies, and computer vision. Some of the many aspects to consider while implementing IoT include hardware, connectivity, protocol, server availability, hardware sensors, decision, and analysis. The research paper aims to present and implement the work of master-slave communication using the Message Query Telemetry Transfer (MQTT) protocol, deployed using Node-MCU and Python. The work in discussion focuses on Master-Slave communication between multiple mobile robots and a central system. The application of this project can be branched to domains like defense, household, e-commerce, etc. A local server setup using a router works as a Wi-Fi network or a master control unit. The real-time navigation, monitoring, and control are done with the help of central image processing (master module) which sends and receives data to robots (slave module) using the MQTT protocol. The results show that MQTT is an efficient communication protocol that can be used for master-slave communication because it has efficient synchronization, data loss is minimum, and is error-free.

Abstract

Advancement of imaging technology and computing resources make crack detection in concrete automated using a vision-based approach. The present work focuses on crack detection in laboratory-scale concrete cubes used for the characterization of concrete using the convolutional neural network. The major challenge in the said application is to remove inherent noise and dents from the uneven surface of the test cube. A laboratory-scale image acquisition setup was developed to acquire consistent images of concrete cubes. Inceptionv3 architecture was trained to detect the cracks in concrete cube surface images in the most accurate manner. The Inceptionv3 model was trained and validated using more than 80,000 crack and 80,000 non-crack images dataset prepared manually using the concrete cube surface images. Popular data augmentation techniques were used to generate the training dataset. An average of 97.49% accuracy and 7.38% cross-entropy are achieved in the training whereas 97.67% accuracy and 7.69% cross-entropy are achieved in the model validation. The training was carried out with a batch size of 100 and 5,000 epochs. An average accuracy of 99% has been achieved during the performance evaluation of crack detection on concrete cubes as presented in the results. The average values of precision, recall and F – score are obtained as 0.88, 0.98 and 0.93 respectively.

Abstract

Assessment of structural health is essential for safe and efficient functioning of built environment. Physical inspection of structures for its health monitoring is time-consuming, costly and risky. Advances in image acquisition, processing techniques, and computational resources have made computer vision a cost effective and an accurate technique for structural health assessment. Recent evolution of Convolutional Neural Network has reduced human effort and made it easy to develop algorithms for identification of structural defects. One of the primary defects in concrete is crack. Concrete cracking occurs due to many reasons like shrinkage, heaving, premature drying, excessive loading etc. and it leads to reduction in strength of structures. This paper presents a computer vision system developed for crack monitoring of concrete cubes subjected to compressive loading. Camera is used to capture real-time images when concrete cubes are subjected to loading. Images are processed using the convolutional neural network to identify crack and subsequently features of cracks like number, location, length, and area are extracted. The outcome of present system demonstrated better and accurate real-time monitoring of cracking when concrete is subjected to loading. The proposed computer vision-based approach is a step forward in Structural Health Monitoring of real-life concrete structures like buildings, bridges, and pavements.

Abstract

Periodic inspection of reinforced concrete bridges and buildings is required to assess their deterioration due to loading and environmental factors. Monitoring the condition of the existing structure helps in the assessment of its load- carrying capacity. Cracking in concrete structure is one of the critical parameters representing its structural health. Trained personnel monitor the development of cracks and their progression at the critical locations of the structures through a physical vision at regular intervals of time. With the advancement in computational techniques, machine vision is becoming a robust alternative to physical inspection of the structure and its health monitoring. The present work demonstrates the application of machine vision in concrete crack monitoring by identifying the location of the crack, the number of cracks, the length of the cracks, and the area of the cracks. A novel system has been developed by integrating machine vision and convolutional neural networks to gain real-time images of concrete surfaces, detect concrete cracks, and extract various parameters related to cracks, such as number, location, length, and area, in synchronization with the applied loading. The present system is implemented for real-time crack monitoring during compression testing of concrete cubes of size 150 mm × 150 mm × 150 mm of different characteristic strengths. The outcome of the machine vision system in graphical form is presented for various parameters of cracks like the number, location, length, the area concerning compressive load for concrete of different strengths. An accuracy of 98% has been achieved for crack detection on concrete cubes as presented in the results. The present machine vision system can be implemented on different concrete structures for acquiring real-time data on crack development and progression. The proposed framework will be an effective tool for engineers working in the domain of structural health monitoring of concrete structures.

Abstract

Reinforced concrete is widely used for construction of infrastructure projects like bridges, buildings, highways, dams, and power plants etc. Monitoring structural health of infrastructure projects is essential for their uninterrupted functioning. Generally physical inspections are carried out to detect defects in structures for further rectification. With recent advancements in computational algorithms, machine vision based inspection is emerging as an efficient technique for monitoring structural health of structures. Surface cracks in concrete structures are one of the important indicators of its health and enable the assessment of serviceability of the structures. The present work aims to address the issue by developing a novel system using machine vision and deep learning. A convolutional neural network-based methodology is developed to detect surface cracks in concrete cube images. The implementation of proposed methodology is demonstrated through monitoring of crack development in concrete cubes of size 150 mm × 150 mm × 150 mm with different compression strengths. The concrete cubes are subjected to compression loading in a standard compression testing machine. The analysis results in location, area, length, and number of cracks in synchronization with the applied compression load. The number of cracks, area of cracks, and length of cracks with respect to compression load are acquired using the developed system for different grades of concrete cubes. Results show that cracks detection and monitoring have been accurately performed with the developed system. The observations obtained from the crack load analysis can be very useful for improved understanding of concrete behaviour. The data acquired and observations can help professionals for improved structural health monitoring.

Abstract

There is a drastic increase in the usage of Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning over the past decade, and innovative applications using these technologies are being developed. The development of such applications requires a tremendous amount of data and high computational power for training and deployment. Though cloud computing is a good way for development with the increasing amount of data, cloud computing proves out to be costly and slow. Edge computing devices have become the need of the hour, which could provide high computational power locally, saving on the costs of communicating with the server and providing a faster way of processing. The issue is addressed in the presented work with the use of commercially available edge computing devices. The developed method is tested for efficiency and computation speed. For the case study, the application of concrete crack detection using a convolutional neural network is considered. Transfer learning-based approach is adopted with the use of a pre-trained inception v3 CNN model. A concrete crack dataset is prepared for training and testing the model. In order to prove the computational efficiency of edge computing, two separated models were trained ad tested. A CPU standalone model and another model compatible with CPU and edge computing device were trained and tested. The experimental results show that the CPU with edge computing device requires much less computational time as compared to the CPU standalone mode and is at least 100 times faster in computation.

Abstract

Cracking in concrete structures is an indication of deterioration and its early detection helps in accurate structural health monitoring. Computer vision technique based on image processing with Convolution Neural Network (CNN) improves crack detection by merging the output of different trained networks in a fusion multilayer perceptron. The most popular and common tool for information extraction from large datasets of images is Deep Learning. An important part of Deep Learning is hardware selection, as data transfer speed depends on it. To achieve faster data transfer, hardware called Edge TPU (Tensor Processing Unit) can be used. The Edge TPU provides high computational power and performance enhancement, which facilitates real-time health recognition of concrete structures. In present paper application of CNN is demonstrated through crack identification in Concrete cubes subjected to compressive loading. The images of concrete blocks are taken using an industrial- grade Basler camera. Proper illumination while capturing images, is provided by a lighting setup consisting of 2 LED panel. Improved accuracy is achieved in crack identification through a re-trained Inception v3 model, updated to Edge TPU compatible model.

Abstract

Municipal solid waste management has been one of the most critical issues of urban cities today. Increasing population, constructions, industries, etc. are the major factors creating a large amount of waste that is dumped onto the landfill sites. Various systems have been proposed and are under the utilization for the management of municipal waste which includes mechanical vibration-based size-based sorters, eddy current sensor-based sorting of metallic waste, automatic optical waste sorters, etc. This paper focuses on a novel solution for solid waste segregation using the concepts of machine vision and deep learning. The proposed concept is tested for the segregation of solid dry waste particularly plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and tetra packs. The prototype system developed for the segregations works at high speed and accuracy. The prototype system sorts 250 objects per minute with an average accuracy of 96%. The proposed novel idea be extended and implemented for other types of waste segregation and can include more categories of solid dry waste. The system provides a solution for the ever challenging municipal waste management problem.

Abstract

Water is most essential in the existence of life and hence need for monitoring its purity is ever rising. With rapid urbanization, our water networks have grown steadily, which is pushing forward the need to monitor water quality from the piping network itself to ensure safety and hygiene. Systems developed for the purpose of monitoring inline water quality, check varying parameters usually with a node pipe section, having multiple sensors integrated to it. These systems are difficult to integrate into already developed piping networks and also maintenance of such systems becomes challenging which in return affects system performance over time. The purpose of this study is to have a review highlighting the advantages and limitations of existing inline monitoring systems and provide better insights to actual deployment alongside further development in the domain where existing piping infrastructure is disturbed to a minimum.

Abstract

Gas sampling and sensing is a domain of great importance nowadays. Various gases play a vital role in different industries ranging from process industries to bio medical engineering. The measurement of concentration of hazardous gas components like NO2 is in high demand and hence many researchers are attracted towards the development of NO2 sensors on the basis of various working principles. A single sensor cannot be the best sensor for all applications. This fact leads to in the need of selection criteria for the selection of the sensor for any industrial application. This paper presents a selection criterion for the selection of NO2 sensor based on its important features and characteristics. Considering this one can select most suitable NO2 sensor for a typical application. This paper also presents a qualitative comparison of commercially available NO2 sensors which can be a handy tool for someone who is interested in the measurement of NO2 concentration for certain application.

Abstract

The work presented in this paper is aimed to highlight the influence of alternating magnetic field on heat transfer coefficient of nanofluid with distilled water as the base fluid having Fe3O4 nanoparticles. An experimental setup is presented which consists of cylindrical test container, temperature sensors, Helmholtz coil and a heater is prepared for thermal analysis of nanofluid in presence and absence of alternating magnetic field. Tests are performed with different concentrations (0.1%, 1% wt.) of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Outcome in the form of important observations showing the enhancement of heat transfer coefficient of nanofluid in presence of alternating magnetic field are discussed. It is demonstrated with the help of experimental results that the applied magnetic field enhances heat transfer by convection which can be interpreted as increase in Nusselt number of the magnetic nanofluid. The results and conclusive remarks offered in this paper are not only beneficial for various industrial applications wherein change in heat transfer rate plays a vital role, but also provide directions for the peers and beginners for the relevant research for nanofluids.

Abstract

We proposed and implemented a system based on fuzzy logic Toolbox. We designed such a system to measure the strength of the upper limb elbow of a tennis player. We have tried to predict the injuries and movements for the sports player, For that we used the Triangle and Trapezoidal membership function for better prediction of the elbow strength. We have selected Two input parameters Elbow Flexion Angle and Torque in the system development using fuzzy logic toolbox in Matlab. We have considered these two inputs and based on that we have developed membership functions. After we get the elbow strength levels we will be able to predict the level of injuries. By measuring the elbow strength, comments can be made on the chances of player getting elbow related injuries.

Abstract

According to the medical condition in the ending weeks of pregnancy, the foetus babies often settled in position. In some rare cases, the baby can be seen in lying sideways position or in a transverse position. This position is known as malpresentation. The most common problem seen in early weeks of pregnancy is that when the babies are more mobile, most babies change their position into the head down position by the last trimester, But Sometimes it is different than the expected, the malpresentation is called transverse lie. It is almost difficult and problematic to deliver a transverse baby vaginally. There are too many complications for the baby and risk associated with women too. We are developing robotic hand by which the position of the baby can be sensed in the degrees and using that robotic hand, according to the requirement the position of the baby can be changed before delivery. In Our proposed work we are going to develop the artificial intelligence that can sense the position of the baby and using AI (Artificial intelligence) the surgery with the robotic hand can be performed accurately and with minimum risks.

Abstract

The most significant role of an industrial machine is its longevity i.e its ability to perform normally and to produce accurate results for extensively long periods of time. To sustain that longevity of the machine, ‘Health Monitoring' is required. Health Monitoring is a promoted and very helpful tool for predictive maintenance techniques. When a machine breaks down, the consequences can range from a personal injury to a public disaster. For this reason, early detection, identification, and rectification of machine faults are required to ensure the safe operation of the machine. When the faults begin to develop in a machine, some of the dynamic properties of the machine change, which influences the machine vibration level and spectral vibration properties. Such changes can act as an indicator for early detection and identification of developing faults. Vibrations are majorly found in the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft vibrates extensively due to improper alignments and imperfect bearings. This paper overviews the generalized health monitoring concept for machines and presents the health monitoring of a rotating machine based on Vibration Data Analysis using an enhanced Fast Fourier Transform Approach. Considering the importance of recent trends of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), remote data analysis is implemented using Python, TCP/IP protocol and Hercules server terminal

Abstract

Tokamak is a magnetic confinement device that confines hot plasma in the shape of torus during the process of thermonuclear fusion power generation. In tokamak, eddy currents are produced due to change in plasma positions during plasma instabilities that induce electromagnetic forces on interaction with the induced currents. Mirnov coils are widely used in tokamaks to study plasma positions during plasma instabilities. Principle objective of this paper is the design and development of Mirnov coil sensor to find eddy currents on a toroidal vessel. This paper presents an elaborative and practical construction technique of a Mirnov coil. The calibration method of a Mirnov coil is also discussed. Mirnov coils as an eddy current diagnostics are tested and experiments to measure magnetic fields due to induced current on torroidal vessel are performed using the coils.

Abstract

Clarification is an essential process in wastewater treatment which removes suspended solids using flocculants The efficiency of the primary clarifier is important as it affects the performance of the subsequent processes. The modeling of clarifiers are carried out using one-dimensional flux theory or two dimensional computational fluid dynamics. In this paper one-dimensional modeling of sedimentation process based on flux theory applied to lab-scale circular and rectangular primary clarifiers is reported. The experiments were carried out for three operating conditions i.e. low, medium and high solid concentrations using lab-scale setup. The one-dimensional sedimentation process model was implemented on MATLAB platform and simulation was carried out. The model simulation is able to predict effluent total suspended solids as well as TSS present along the height of the lab-scale primary clarifiers. The average R2 value 0.97 was observed between measured and simulated total suspended solids present along the height of circular clarifier for the three operating conditions whereas average R2 value 0.96 was found in the case of rectangular clarifier for identical conditions. Based on the simulation and experimental results the removal of suspended solids is found better in circular clarifier as compared to rectangular clarifier for the influent flow rate of 134 mL/min with influent total suspended solids from 300 to 600 mg/L.

Abstract

In wastewater treatment plant clarification is a major step to remove the suspended solids. The performance of the primary clarifier is important as the effluent of primary clarifier subsequently treated further in downstream biological process. The main objective of primary clarifier is to remove the suspended solids present in influent wastewater. The monitoring of the primary clarifier operation is crucial in order to maintain the efficient performance. In this work, application of multivariate statastical techniques to predict or softsense the effluent quality of industrial primary clarifier is investigated. The industrial clariflocculator located at common effluent treatment plant (CETP), Vatva, Ahmedabad, India is considered. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is adopted to check and reveal the collinearity among influent COD, BOD, TDS and TOC. Three partial least square (PLS) models are developed to estimate effluent COD, BOD and TOC based on influent quality parameters. The PLS model of effluent TOC is found better than the PLS models for COD and BOD. It is observed that the fewer number of PLS components, that well explain the maximum variance in the effluent quality parameter (COD, BOD or TOC), gives better results. Hence, there is no need to consider all PLS components for effluent quality soft-sensor model development. The estimation of effluent COD, BOD and TOC can be done with two, three and four PLS components rather than all eight PLS components. These multivariate statistics based models are found effective and promising, hence can help avoid or reduce the need of sampling and experimental analysis for the effluent COD, BOD and TOC, because these can be estimated using soft sensors based on these PLS models using measured influent quality parameters. Keywords : Primary clarifier, partial least square, principal component analysis..

Abstract

Primary clarifier plays vital role in removal of pollutants present as total suspended solids (TSS) in wastewater. In this research work prediction of effluent TSS present in the sedimentation tank of clariflocculator is reported. The data of common effluent treatment plant (CETP), Ahmedabad, India has been used in the development of soft sensor. The mechanistic and fuzzy inference system (FIS) soft sensor models have been developed. The models predict the effluent total suspended solids (TSSe) of clariflocculator process based on the measurement of influent flow rate (Qf) and influent total suspended solids (TSSin). The root mean square error (RMSE) of mechanistic model and fuzzy inference system were 30 and 48 respectively for the data samples Qf ranging from 800 to 900 m3/h and TSSin from 300–600 mg/L. These ranges are typically observed throughout the year at CETP, Ahmedabad, India. The percentage mean accuracy for mechanistic model was 88 %. The difference between predicted and actual measured values of RMSE and percentage mean accuracy of mechanistic model is acceptable as system is highly sensitive. Mechanistic model gives information of total suspended solids present in retentate as well as TSS present at different height of the sedimentation tank in addition to TSS present in effluent.

Abstract

Diabetes is a long-term condition in which a person’s body cannot break down blood sugar adequately due to a shortage of insulin. The most crucial element of health care is continuously monitoring blood glucose (BG) levels. The main concern of effective glucose monitoring equipment is based on the blood-pricking technique. However, this may not be suggested for frequent glucose measurement. The paper presents various glucose-measuring technologies. The research discusses various non-invasive glucose measurement techniques and their management using advanced medical technologies. The configuration of the precise measuring device is essential to meet the blood glucose monitoring requirements that are not invasive systems. Non-invasive glucose monitoring devices solve the issue of frequently pricking patients for blood samples for clinical tests. For the goal of continuous health monitoring, a Smart Healthcare framework would be built on the Internet-of-Medical-Things (IoMT) and a Healthcare Cyber-Physical System (H-CPS) to estimate blood glucose. The study also discusses a few consumer devices and cutting-edge methods for measuring glucose. The paper also outlines the several difficulties and open challenges with glucose prediction.

Abstract

The marble industry offers a vast selection of styles, presenting a challenge for customers seeking the ideal marble for their homes or businesses. To address this, chatbots have emerged as a convenient means for customers to receive instant assistance and personalized recommendations. This paper introduces a marble recommender and assistance chatbot designed for a Marble and Granite selling company. The recommendation process integrates both content-based filtering and natural language processing (NLP) techniques. Utilizing Dialogflow, we developed and implemented the chatbot on the company's website. Through dialogue-based interactions, a conversational recommender system was established. The system adeptly comprehends various natural language queries and delivers relevant recommendations based on individual customer preferences. To evaluate the system's performance, we measured the accuracy of recommendations and user satisfaction. Our user study findings reveal that the chatbot provided users with a satisfying experience and achieved an impressive accuracy rate of 85%. The chatbot, named MarbleBot, proves to be an indispensable tool in helping users discover the perfect marble that suits their needs. The paper proceeds in a chronological order, beginning with the introduction, followed by a comprehensive review of relevant literature. The research methodology section outlines the tools employed, including Dialogflow methodology, Flask-API, MySQL database, system design, and pre-processing steps. Subsequently, we present the results, encompassing evaluation tools and an analysis of testing outcomes. Finally, the paper concludes with a summary of our findings and potential future directions.

Abstract

The transformation of the physical world into digital in terms of industries has made everything connected. Evolution of technologies has created different terms and concepts. IIoT is one of the major concepts in not only manufacturing industries but industries like agro-based or medical. Over the period of time, IIoT and IoT have been used interchangeably although they are two very different concepts. When IoT is applied in manufacturing, it is known as ‘Industrial Internet of Things.’ This technology is a combination of different technologies like M2M communication, machine learning, big data, sensor data and automation those already existed in industries. IIoT deals with industrial applications (manufacturing), large-scale networks, while IoT deals with general applications (consumer usage), small-scale networks. IIoT or Industry 4.0 aims at interconnectivity, automation, real-time data. There are a number of benefits, but at the same time one cannot neglect all the challenges that are faced. This paper gives an overview of what is meant by IIoT and its related concepts, Industry 4.0, and also tries to analyze the benefits, challenges faced, its applications, smart manufacturing and its successful implementations and a look into how it has and is continuously contributing to different industries like manufacturing, greenhouse industry and medical industry.

Abstract

In this paper, the control system for the injection molding machine is designed with the help of PLC and SCADA. The main control part of the machine is the molding and clamping unit. At first, a polymer is inserted with the help of a screw and then heated at temperature 275 ℃ with a heater and for measurement of temperature K-Type thermocouple is used. The molted polymer then pressurized with a screw passed through the nozzle at high pressure. The melted polymer is fed into the clamping unit then the material comes into its shape and with cold water material is cool down then discharge from the clamping unit. We analyzed the process using SCADA. We also focus on the application and procedure for predictive maintenance based on the “mean time to failure statistic” to decrease production losses due to machine breakdown. The “5-Why” study method is used to know the machine condition and main issues.

Abstract

The paper proposes the development of a solid-state-based soft starter. It is a device that protects the motor from sudden influxes of power by limiting the large inrush of current during startup by gradually ramping up the voltage to rated, hence, producing the gradual start. It is used in an application that requires speed and torque control only during startup. Compared to conventional DOL direct online starters in which inrush current is five to ten times the rated current, the paper presents the development and implementation of a technique that provides precise control over inrush current. The added feature of a smooth stop provides protection against hammering in submersible motors. It not only satisfies the existing needs but also takes up less space than variable frequency drive (VFD); hence, stand out distinctively from the rest of its type thus making itself quite marketable. To make the solution economically viable and less complex, a fully analog-based circuit has been presented which significantly reduces the cost compared to microcontroller-based circuits.

Abstract

Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) is the mapping of an unknown environment and at the same time localising the ego body in that environment. ORB SLAM2 (IEEE Trans Robot 33:1255–1262 2017 [1]) is a state of the art visual SLAM algorithm which can calculate camera trajectory using Monocular camera. Since monocular slam has the scale drift issue the source code has been so altered that the map can be saved or previously built map can be reloaded for localisation. To plan optimal trajectory of a vehicle to reach from a source to goal, A* (Computing the shortest path: A search meets graph theory 2005 [2]) search algorithm has been implemented. Gazebo (2004 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems 2004 [3]) is an open-source robot simulation tool on which a Turtlebot robot was used to test algorithm that has been proposed in this paper. Turtlebot is a two-wheeled differential drive robot on which various sensors are mounted. A novel approach has been used for local path planning of the vehicle. ROS (ROS: an open-source Robot Operating System 2009 [4]) framework has been used to communicate between various nodes for performing navigation.
