Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Secure and scalable authentication remains a fundamental challenge in Internet of Things (IoT) networks due to constrained device resources, dynamic topology, and the absence of centralized trust infrastructures. Conventional password-based and certificate-driven authentication schemes incur high computation, storage, and communication overhead, limiting their suitability for large-scale deployments. To address these limitations, this paper proposes ScLBS, a federated learning (FL)–based self-certified authentication scheme for distributed and sustainable IoT environments. ScLBS integrates self-certified public key cryptography with FL-driven trust adaptation, enabling decentralized public key derivation without reliance on third-party certificate authorities or exposure of private credentials. A zero-knowledge mechanism combined with location-aware authentication strengthens resistance to impersonation, Sybil, and replay attacks. Hierarchical key management supported by a -tree enables efficient group rekeying and preserves forward and backward secrecy under dynamic membership. Formal security verification is conducted under the Dolev–Yao adversary model using ProVerif, confirming secrecy of private and session keys (SKs) and correctness of authentication. Extensive NS-3 simulations and ablation analysis demonstrate that ScLBS achieves lower authentication delay, reduced message overhead, improved network utilization, and decreased energy consumption compared to representative IoT authentication schemes, while maintaining bounded FL overhead. These results indicate that ScLBS provides a balanced trade-off between security strength, scalability, and resource efficiency for constrained IoT networks. metadata Chithaluru, Premkumar; Jyothi, B.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés An extensive examination reveals that Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) offer a promising solution for essential sensing and event-driven data communication needs. WSNs hold significant potential for event-driven communication, primarily owing to their decentralized and infrastructure-free operational characteristics. However, the traditional WSN’s inherent static nature imposes limitations on its applicability, particularly in scenarios requiring generic operating characteristics or routing protocols for Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication. This constraint arises from the immobility of sensor nodes within the network. Nonetheless, adopting a forward-looking perspective that incorporates mobility into WSNs opens up opportunities to create a mobile-WSN solution tailored for V2V communication. In response to the challenges posed by mobile-WSNs and the pursuit of a cost-effective V2V communication solution, a Lightweight Energy-Efficient Cross-layer Routing (LRECR) scheme has been proposed for WSN-VANET-based networks. The proposed routing model aims to enhance the timely delivery of Real-Time Data (RTD) with low latency, provide optimal resources for Non-Real Time (NRT) data delivery, optimize resource allocation, minimize delay, reduce energy consumption, and lower buffer and holding costs. These comprehensive parameters empower mobile-WSNs to fulfill the requirements of a Quality of Service (QoS)-oriented and energy-efficient V2V communication system. metadata Chithaluru, Premkumar; Uyyala, Ravi; Singh, Aman; Alfarraj, Osama; Dzul López, Luis Alonso; Khatak, Satish y Alkhayyat, Ahmed Hussein mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, luis.dzul@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2024) A Lightweight Energy-Efficient Routing Scheme for Real-Time WSN-VANET-Based Applications.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés Federated learning is a distributed machine-learning technique that enables multiple devices to learn a shared model while keeping their local data private. The approach poses security challenges, such as model integrity, that must be addressed to ensure the reliability of the learned models. In this context, software-defined networking (SDN) can play a crucial role in improving the security of federated learning systems; indeed, it can provide centralized control and management of network resources, enforcement of security policies, and detection and mitigation of network-level threats. The integration of SDN with federated learning can help achieve a secure and efficient distributed learning environment. In this paper, an architecture is proposed to detect attacks on Federated Learning using SDN; furthermore, the machine learning model is deployed on a number of devices for training. The simulation results are carried out using the N-BaIoT dataset and training models such as Random Forest achieves 99.6%, Decision Tree achieves 99.8%, and K-Nearest Neighbor achieves 99.3% with 20 features. metadata Babbar, Himanshi; Rani, Shalli; Singh, Aman y Gianini, Gabriele mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2024) Detecting Cyberattacks to Federated Learning on Software-Defined Networks.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés Blockchain technology may provide a potential solution to the Internet of Things (IoT) security challenges by providing a decentralized and secure method for storing, managing, and sharing data. The Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-256) hashed value of preliminary data (block) is retained in one block along with transaction data in tree form and timestamp in a chain of blocks. However, there are observations about blockchain limitations such as higher energy consumption, secure data, self-maintenance reliance, and higher cost. These constraints can be overcome by incorporating encryption algorithms into accepting blocks of data. In this paper, we propose a secure intelligent computational model for a large-scale interconnected IoT environment; an analytical modeling technique is considered for the proposed system. The proposed system takes advantage of the potential security feature of blockchain, which is considered the most appropriate secure communication system in an IoT. A computational model is built using the proposed blockchain technology to incorporate a secure and intelligent communication system. The proposed system uses the enhanced McEliece encryption approach’s potential to link the blockchain due to the faster mode of encryption and decryption process with a highly reduced number of steps. metadata Kumar, Sunil; Singh, Aman; Benslimane, Abderrahim; Chithaluru, Premkumar; Albahar, Marwan Ali; Rathore, Rajkumar Singh y Álvarez, Roberto Marcelo mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, roberto.alvarez@uneatlantico.es (2023) An Optimized Intelligent Computational Security Model for Interconnected Blockchain-IoT System & Cities.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana México > Investigación > Artículos y libros Cerrado Inglés Correct identification of tumor in brain images is critical for treatment. In the medical domain, class distributions of recorded data could differ with locations and require high levels of privacy while collaboratively training the deep learning (DL) models for classifications. The main aim of this paper is to propose a privacy-preserving collaborative model for the classification of brain tumor in heterogeneously distributed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images. In this paper, initially, an open-source dataset has been acquired and analyzed as per the required competencies. The acquired dataset has four types of MRI images: pituitary tumor, meningioma tumor, glioma tumor, and no tumor. First, the acquired dataset was analyzed using DL and transfer learning algorithms. By applying implementations of basic algorithms, better algorithms were identified for further implementations in a federated learning ecosystem. DenseNet201-based transfer learning was identified as a better neural network and further utilized for collaborative transfer learning implementations. Here, the paper also focused on developing a suitable system for a heterogeneous distributed tumor database. Heterogeneous data were converted from the available data by applying nonidentical data distribution. The study discovered that the federated DL models, involving multiple clients, exhibited superior performance compared to conventional pretrained models. The proposed framework possesses distinctive characteristics that distinguish it from existing classification methods for brain tumor identification, particularly in terms of ensuring data privacy for edge devices with limited resources. Due to these additional features, the framework stands as the optimal alternative solution for early diagnosis of brain tumor. metadata Aggarwal, Meenakshi; Khullar, Vikas; Goyal, Nitin; Rastogi, Rashi; Singh, Aman; Yélamos Torres, Vanessa y Albahar, Marwan Ali mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, vanessa.yelamos@funiber.org, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2023) Privacy preserved collaborative transfer learning model with heterogeneous distributed data for brain tumor classification.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana México > Investigación > Artículos y libros Abierto Inglés Ubiquitous data monitoring and processing with minimal latency is one of the crucial challenges in real-time and scalable applications. Internet of Things (IoT), fog computing, edge computing, cloud computing, and the edge of things are the spine of all real-time and scalable applications.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés This paper presents grid-oriented multiobjective harmony search algorithm (GOMOHSA) to incorporate the multiple grid parameters for minimization of the active power loss, reactive power loss, and total voltage deviations (TVD) in a part of practical transmission network of Rajasthan Rajya Vidyut Prasaran Nigam Limited (RVPN) in southern parts of Rajasthan state of India. This is achieved by optimal deployment of optimally sized renewable energy (RE) generators using GOMOHSA. Performance indexes such as active power loss minimization index (APMLI), the reactive power loss minimization index (RPMLI), and the total voltage deviation improvement index (TVDII) are introduced to evaluate the health of the test network with different load scenarios. Performance of proposed GOMOHSA has been tested for five different operating scenarios of loads and RE generation. It is established that the proposed GOMOHSA finds the optimal deployment of optimally sized RE generators, and the investment cost of deployment of these RE generators can be recovered within a time period that is less than 5 years. Performance of GOMOHSA is superior compared to a conventional genetic algorithm (GA) in terms of performance indexes, RE generator capacity, payback period, and parameter sensitivity.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Forecasting of sediment load (SL) is essential for reservoir operations, design of water resource structures, risk management, water resource planning and for preventing natural disasters in the river basin systems. Direct measurement of SL is difficult, labour intensive, and expensive. The development of an accurate and reliable model for forecasting the SL is required. Sediment transport is highly non-linear and is influenced by a variety of factors. Forecasting of the SL using various conventional methods is not highly accurate because of the association of various complex phenomena. In this study, major key factors such as rock type (RT), relief (R), rainfall (RF), water discharge (WD), temperature (T), catchment area (CA), and SL are recognized in developing the one-step-ahead SL forecasting model in the Mahanadi River (MR), which is among India’s largest rivers. Artificial neural networks (ANN) in conjunction with multi-objective genetic algorithm (ANN-MOGA)-based forecasting models were developed for forecasting the SL in the MR. The ANN-MOGA model was employed to optimize the two competing objective functions (bias and error variance) with simultaneous optimization of all associated ANN parameters. The performances of the proposed novel model were finally compared to other existing methods to verify the forecasting capability of the model. The ANN-MOGA model improved the performance by 12.81% and 10.19% compared to traditional AR and MAR regression models, respectively. The results suggested that hybrid ANN-MOGA models outperform traditional autoregressive and multivariate autoregressive forecasting models. Overall, hybrid ANN-MOGA intelligent techniques are recommended for the forecasting of SL in rivers metadata Yadav, Arvind; Ali Albahar, Marwan; Chithaluru, Premkumar; Singh, Aman; Alammari, Abdullah; Kumar, Gogulamudi Vijay y Miró Vera, Yini Airet mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, yini.miro@uneatlantico.es (2023) Hybridizing Artificial Intelligence Algorithms for Forecasting of Sediment Load with Multi-Objective Optimization.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the deadly virus SARS-CoV-2 that affects the lung of the patient. Different symptoms, including fever, muscle pain and respiratory syndrome, can be identified in COVID-19-affected patients. The disease needs to be diagnosed in a timely manner, otherwise the lung infection can turn into a severe form and the patient’s life may be in danger. In this work, an ensemble deep learning-based technique is proposed for COVID-19 detection that can classify the disease with high accuracy, efficiency, and reliability. A weighted average ensemble (WAE) prediction was performed by combining three CNN models, namely Xception, VGG19 and ResNet50V2, where 97.25% and 94.10% accuracy was achieved for binary and multiclass classification, respectively. To accurately detect the disease, different test methods have been proposed and developed, some of which are even being used in real-time situations. RT-PCR is one of the most successful COVID-19 detection methods, and is being used worldwide with high accuracy and sensitivity. However, complexity and time-consuming manual processes are limitations of this method. To make the detection process automated, researchers across the world have started to use deep learning to detect COVID-19 applied on medical imaging. Although most of the existing systems offer high accuracy, different limitations, including high variance, overfitting and generalization errors, can be found that can degrade the system performance. Some of the reasons behind those limitations are a lack of reliable data resources, missing preprocessing techniques, a lack of proper model selection, etc., which eventually create reliability issues. Reliability is an important factor for any healthcare system. Here, transfer learning with better preprocessing techniques applied on two benchmark datasets makes the work more reliable. The weighted average ensemble technique with hyperparameter tuning ensures better accuracy than using a randomly selected single CNN model. metadata Chakraborty, Gouri Shankar; Batra, Salil; Singh, Aman; Muhammad, Ghulam; Yélamos Torres, Vanessa y Mahajan, Makul mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, vanessa.yelamos@funiber.org, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2023) A Novel Deep Learning-Based Classification Framework for COVID-19 Assisted with Weighted Average Ensemble Modeling.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of interconnected devices that includes low-end devices (sensors) and high-end devices (servers). The routing protocol used the Low-Power and Lossy Networks (RPL) protocol, which was designed to collect data in Low-Power and Lossy Networks (LLN) efficiently and reliably. The RPL rank property specifies how sensor nodes are placed in Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graphs (DODAG) based on an Objective Function (OF). The OF includes information such as the Expected Transmission Count (ETX) and packet delivery rate. The rank property aids in routing path optimization, reducing control overhead, and maintaining a loop-free topology by using rank-based data path validation. However, it causes many issues, such as optimal parent selection, next-hop node selection, and network instability. We proposed an Enhanced Opportunistic Rank-based Parent Node Selection for Sustainable and Smart IoT Networks to address these issues. The optimal parent node is determined by forecasting the expected energy of each node using Received Signal Strength (RSS) and an enhanced reinforcement learning algorithm. The proposed method addresses the issue of selecting the next-hop neighbor node and improves routing stability. Furthermore, when a large number of new nodes try to join the sustainable IoT-based smart cities, the proposed technique provides optimal load balance metadata Chithaluru, Premkumar; Singh, Aman; Mahmoud, Mahmoud Shuker; Kumar, Sunil; Vidal Mazón, Juan Luis; Alkhayyat, Ahmed y Anand, Divya mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, juanluis.vidal@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, divya.anand@uneatlantico.es (2023) An enhanced opportunistic rank-based parent node selection for sustainable & smart IoT networks.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Industries need solutions that can automatically monitor oil leakage from deployed underwater pipelines and to rapidly report any damage. The location prediction of mineral reservoirs like oil, gas, or metals in deep water is a challenge during the extraction of these resources. Moreover, the problem of ores and mineral deposits on the seafloor comes into play. The abovementioned challenges necessitate for the deployment of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). Anchor-based localization techniques are segregated into range-free and range-based processes. Range-based schemes depend on various techniques like angle of arrival (AoA), time of arrival (ToA), time difference of arrival (TDoA), and received signal strength indicator (RSSI). In this article, the localization of these leakages is performed by using range-based metrics for calculating the distance among anchor nodes (ANs) and target nodes (TNs). This estimated distance is further optimized to minimize the estimation error. A multilateralism procedure is used to estimate the optimal position of each TN. The results exhibit that the proposed algorithm shows a high performance when compared to previous works, in terms of minimum energy consumption, lower packet loss, rapid location estimation, and lowest localization error. The benefit of using the proposed methodology greatly impacts on identifying the leakage area in mobility-assisted UWSN, where rapid reporting helps to lower the loss of resources. metadata Goyal, Nitin; Nain, Mamta; Singh, Aman; Abualsaud, Khalid; Alsubhi, Khalid; Ortega-Mansilla, Arturo y Zorba, Nizar mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, arturo.ortega@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2022) An Anchor-Based Localization in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks for Industrial Oil Pipeline Monitoring.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés The Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolutionary technique of sharing data for smart devices that generates huge amounts of data from smart healthcare systems. Therefore, healthcare systems utilize the convergence power and traffic analysis of sensors that cannot be satisfactorily handled by the IoT. In this article, a novel mutation operator is devised and incorporated with the differential evolution (DE) algorithm. Two tests have been conducted in the validation process. Firstly, the newly dual adaption-based operators incorporated with the differential evolution algorithm are being proposed.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Cerrado Inglés Recently, the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) could offload healthcare services to 5 G edge computing for low latency. However, some existing works assumed altruistic patients will sacrifice Quality of Service (QoS) for the global optimum. For priority-aware and deadline-sensitive healthcare, this sufficient and simplified assumption will undermine the engagement enthusiasm, i.e., unfairness. To address this issue, we propose a long-term proportional fairness-driven 5 G edge healthcare, i.e., FairHealth. First, we establish a long-term Nash bargaining game to model the service offloading, considering the stochastic demand and dynamic environment. We then design a Lyapunov-based proportional-fairness resource scheduling algorithm, which decouples the long-term fairness problem into single-slot sub-problems, realizing a trade-off between service stability and fairness. Moreover, we propose a block-coordinate descent method to iteratively solve non-convex fair sub-problems. Simulation results show that our scheme can improve 74.44% of the fairness index (i.e., Nash product), compared with the classic global time-optimal scheme. metadata Lin, Xi; Wu, Jun; Bashir, Ali Kashif; Yang, Wu; Singh, Aman y AlZubi, Ahmad Ali mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2022) FairHealth: Long-Term Proportional Fairness-Driven 5G Edge Healthcare in Internet of Medical Things.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés The standard optimization of open-pit mine design and production scheduling, which is impacted by a variety of factors, is an essential part of mining activities. The metal uncertainty, which is connected to supply uncertainty, is a crucial component in optimization. To address uncertainties regarding the economic value of mining blocks and the general problem of mine design optimization, a minimum-cut network flow algorithm is employed to give the optimal ultimate pit limits and pushback designs under uncertainty. A structure that is computationally effective and can manage the joint presentation and treatment of the economic values of mining blocks under various circumstances is created by the push re-label minimum-cut technique. In this study, the algorithm is put to the test using a copper deposit and shows similarities to other stochastic optimizers for mine planning that have already been created. Higher possibilities of reaching predicted production targets are created by the algorithm’s earlier selection of more certain blocks with blocks of high value. Results show that, in comparison to a conventional approach using the same algorithm, the cumulative metal output is larger when the uncertainty in the metal content is taken into consideration.

Universidad Internacional do Cuanza > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Currently, sustainability is a vital aspect for every nation and organization to accomplish Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics are used to evaluate the sustainability level of an organization. According to the statistics, 53% of respondents in the BlackRock survey are concerned about the availability of low ESG data, which is critical for determining the organization’s sustainability level. This obstacle can be overcome by implementing Industry 4.0 technologies, which enable real-time data, data authentication, prediction, transparency, authentication, and structured data. Based on the review of previous studies, it was determined that only a few studies discussed the implementation of Industry 4.0 technologies for ESG data and evaluation. The objective of the study is to discuss the significance of ESG data and report, which is used for the evaluation of the sustainability of an organization. In this regard, the assimilation of Industry 4.0 technologies (Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and big data for obtaining ESG data by an organization is detailed presented to study the progress of advancement of these technologies for ESG. On the basis of analysis, this study concludes that consumers are concerned about the ESG data, as most organizations develop inaccurate ESG data and suggest that these digital technologies have a crucial role in framing an accurate ESG report.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés The demand for digitization has inspired organizations to move towards cloud computing, which has increased the challenge for cloud service providers to provide quality service. One of the challenges is energy consumption, which can shoot up the cost of using computing resources and has raised the carbon footprint in the atmosphere; therefore, it is an issue that it is imperative to address. Virtualization, bin-packing, and live VM migration techniques are the key resolvers that have been found to be efficacious in presenting sound solutions. Thus, in this paper, a new live VM migration algorithm, live migration with efficient ballooning (LMEB), is proposed; LMEB focuses on decreasing the size of the data that need to be shifted from the source to the destination server so that the total energy consumption of migration can be reduced. A simulation was performed with a specific configuration of virtual machines and servers, and the results proved that the proposed algorithm could trim down energy usage by 18%, migration time by 20%, and downtime by 20% in comparison with the existing approach of live migration with ballooning (LMB) metadata Gupta, Neha; Gupta, Kamali; Qahtani, Abdulrahman M.; Gupta, Deepali; Alharithi, Fahd S.; Singh, Aman y Goyal, Nitin mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2022) Energy-Aware Live VM Migration Using Ballooning in Cloud Data Center.

Universidad Internacional do Cuanza > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Rivers are dynamic geological agents on the earth which transport the weathered materials of the continent to the sea. Estimation of suspended sediment yield (SSY) is essential for management, planning, and designing in any river basin system. Estimation of SSY is critical due to its complex nonlinear processes, which are not captured by conventional regression methods. Rainfall, temperature, water discharge, SSY, rock type, relief, and catchment area data of 11 gauging stations were utilized to develop robust artificial intelligence (AI), similar to an artificial-neural-network (ANN)-based model for SSY prediction. The developed highly generalized global single ANN model using a large amount of data was applied at individual gauging stations for SSY prediction in the Mahanadi River basin, which is one of India’s largest peninsular rivers. It appeared that the proposed ANN model had the lowest root-mean-squared error (0.0089) and mean absolute error (0.0029) along with the highest coefficient of correlation (0.867) values among all comparative models (sediment rating curve and multiple linear regression). The ANN provided the best accuracy at Tikarapara among all stations. The ANN model was the most suitable substitute over other comparative models for SSY prediction. It was also noticed that the developed ANN model using the combined data of eleven stations performed better at Tikarapara than the other ANN which was developed using data from Tikarapara only. These approaches are suggested for SSY prediction in river basin systems due to their ease of implementation and better performance. metadata Yadav, Arvind; Chithaluru, Premkumar; Singh, Aman; Joshi, Devendra; Elkamchouchi, Dalia H.; Mazas Pérez-Oleaga, Cristina y Anand, Divya mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, cristina.mazas@uneatlantico.es, divya.anand@uneatlantico.es (2022) An Enhanced Feed-Forward Back Propagation Levenberg–Marquardt Algorithm for Suspended Sediment Yield Modeling.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés This is an effort to analyze the reaction of stock prices of Indian public and private banks listed in NSE and BSE to the announcement of seven best case news events. Several recent studies have analyzed the correlation between stock prices and news announcements; however, there is no evidence on how private and public sector Indian bank stocks react to important news events independently. We examine these features by concentrating on a sample of banking and government news events. We classify these news events to create a group of negative and a group of positive tone of announcements (sentiments). The statistical results show that the negative banking news announcements had a one-month impact on private banks, with statistically significant negative mean CARs. However, with highly statistically substantial negative mean CARs, the influence of the negative banking news announcements on public banks was observed for two months after the news was published. Furthermore, the influence of the positive banking news on private banks persisted a month after the news was published. Positive banking news events had an influence on public banks for five days after they were published. The study concludes that public bank stocks react more to negative news announcements than positive news announcements in the same manner as the sentimental polarity of the news announcements as compared to private bank stocks. First, we retrieved the news articles published in prominent online financial news portals between 2017 and 2020, and the seven major news events were extracted and classified using multi-class text classification. The Random Forest classifier produced a significant accuracy of 94% with pre-trained embeddings of DistilBERT, a neural network model, which outperformed the traditional feature representation technique, TF-IDF.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés This study involves a working limestone mine that supplies limestone to the cement factory. The two main goals of this paper are to (a) determine how long an operating mine can continue to provide the cement plant with the quality and quantity of materials it needs, and (b) explore the viability of combining some limestone from a nearby mine with the study mine limestone to meet the cement plant’s quality and quantity goals. These objectives are accomplished by figuring out the maximum net profit for the ultimate pit limit and production sequencing of the mining blocks. The issues were resolved using a branch-and-cut based sequential integer and mixed integer programming problem. The study mine can exclusively feed the cement plant for up to 15 years, according to the data. However, it was also noted that the addition of the limestone from the neighboring mine substantially increased the mine’s life (85 years). The findings also showed that, when compared with the production planning formulation that the company is now using, the proposed approach creates 10% more profit. The suggested method also aids in determining the desired desirable quality of the limestone that will be transported from the nearby mine throughout each production stage. metadata Joshi, Devendra; Chithaluru, Premkumar; Singh, Aman; Yadav, Arvind; Elkamchouchi, Dalia H.; Breñosa, Jose y Anand, Divya mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, josemanuel.brenosa@uneatlantico.es, divya.anand@uneatlantico.es (2022) An Optimized Open Pit Mine Application for Limestone Quarry Production Scheduling to Maximize Net Present Value.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana Puerto Rico > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Rivers play a major role within ecosystems and society, including for domestic, industrial, and agricultural uses, and in power generation. Forecasting of suspended sediment yield (SSY) is critical for design, management, planning, and disaster prevention in river basin systems. It is difficult to forecast the SSY using conventional methods because these approaches cannot handle complicated non-stationarity and non-linearity. Artificial intelligence techniques have gained popularity in water resources due to handling complex problems of SSY. In this study, a fully automated generalized single hybrid intelligent artificial neural network (ANN)-based genetic algorithm (GA) forecasting model was developed using water discharge, temperature, rainfall, SSY, rock type, relief, and catchment area data of eleven gauging stations for forecasting the SSY. It is applied at individual gauging stations for SSY forecasting in the Mahanadi River which is one of India’s largest peninsular rivers. All parameters of the ANN are optimized automatically and simultaneously using the GA. The multi-objective algorithm was applied to optimize the two conflicting objective functions (error variance and bias). The mean square error objective function was considered for the single-objective optimization model. Single and multi-objective GA-based ANN, autoregressive and multivariate autoregressive models were compared to each other. It was found that the single-objective GA-based ANN model provided the best accuracy among all comparative models, and it is the most suitable substitute for forecasting SSY. If the measurement of SSY is unavailable, then single-objective GA-based ANN modeling approaches can be recommended for forecasting SSY due to comparatively superior performance and simplicity of implementation metadata Yadav, Arvind; Chithaluru, Premkumar; Singh, Aman; Albahar, Marwan Ali; Jurcut, Anca; Álvarez, Roberto Marcelo; Mojjada, Ramesh Kumar y Joshi, Devendra mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, roberto.alvarez@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2022) Suspended Sediment Yield Forecasting with Single and Multi-Objective Optimization Using Hybrid Artificial Intelligence Models.

Leaf disease impacts the quality and productivity of paddy crops. Therefore, tackling this issue as early as possible is mandatory to reduce its impact. Consequently, in recent years, deep learning methods have been essential in identifying and classifying leaf disease. Deep learning is used to observe patterns in disease in crop leaves. For instance, organizing a crop’s leaf according to its shape, size, and color is significant. To facilitate farmers, this study proposed a Convolutional Neural Networks-based Deep Learning (CNN-based DL) architecture, including transfer learning (TL) for agricultural research. In this study, different TL architectures, viz. InceptionV3, VGG16, ResNet, SqueezeNet, and VGG19, were considered to carry out disease detection in paddy plants. The approach started with preprocessing the leaf image; afterward, semantic segmentation was used to extract a region of interest. Consequently, TL architectures were tuned with segmented images. Finally, the extra, fully connected layers of the Deep Neural Network (DNN) are used to classify and identify leaf disease. The proposed model was concerned with the biotic diseases of paddy leaves due to fungi and bacteria. The proposed model showed an accuracy rate of 96.4%, better than state-of-the-art models with different variants of TL architectures.

Universidad Internacional do Cuanza > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Traditional optimization of open pit mine design is a crucial component of mining endeavors and is influenced by many variables. The critical factor in optimization is the geological uncertainty, which relates to the ore grade. To deal with uncertainties related to the block economic values of mining blocks and the general problem of mine design optimization, under unknown conditions, the best ultimate pit limits and pushback designs are produced by a minimum cut algorithm. The push–relabel minimal cut algorithm provides a framework for computationally efficient representation and processing of the economic values of mining blocks under multiple scenarios. A sequential Gaussian simulation-based smoothing spline technique was created. To produce pushbacks, an efficient parameterized minimum cut algorithm is suggested. An analysis of Indian iron ore mining was performed. The developed mine scheduling algorithm was compared with the conventional algorithm, and the results show that when uncertainty is considered, the cumulative metal production is higher and there is an additional increase of about 5% in net present value. The results of this work help the mining industry to plan mines in such a way that can generate maximum profit from the deposits. metadata Joshi, Devendra; Chithaluru, Premkumar; Singh, Aman; Yadav, Arvind; Elkamchouchi, Dalia H.; Mazas Pérez-Oleaga, Cristina y Anand, Divya mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, cristina.mazas@uneatlantico.es, divya.anand@uneatlantico.es (2022) A Novel Large-Scale Stochastic Pushback Design Merged with a Minimum Cut Algorithm for Open Pit Mine Production Scheduling.

In smart cities it is one of the common challenges to introduce smart parking to increase parking efficiency and combat numerous issues like identification of free parking slot and real-time dynamic updation on traffic to save fuel and energy. In this work, a new cloud-based smart parking architecture is proposed that can help in predicting the available free parking slots in smart cities. Initially, the methodology collects the car count at any near by parking using Internet of Things (IoT) and Cloud-based approach. Later, the approach uses the Kernel Least Mean Square algorithm to make heuristic predictions about future vacancy using auto-regression. The proposed approach thus utilizes the online learning or model training. To validate the efficacy of the proposed work, the testing is done on the real-time dataset.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most chronic neurodegeneration and dementia-causing disorder. Economic expense of treating AD patients is expected to grow. The requirement of developing a computer-aided technique for early AD categorization becomes even more essential. Deep learning (DL) models offer numerous benefits against machine learning tools. Several latest experiments that exploited brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and convolutional neural networks (CNN) for AD classification showed promising conclusions. CNN’s receptive field aids in the extraction of main recognizable features from these MRI scans. In order to increase classification accuracy, a new adaptive model based on CNN and support vector machines (SVM) is presented in the research, combining both the CNN’s capabilities in feature extraction and SVM in classification. The objective of this research is to build a hybrid CNN-SVM model for classifying AD using the MRI ADNI dataset. Experimental results reveal that the hybrid CNN-SVM model outperforms the CNN model alone, with relative improvements of 3.4%, 1.09%, 0.85%, and 2.82% on the testing dataset for AD vs. cognitive normal (CN), CN vs. mild cognitive impairment (MCI), AD vs. MCI, and CN vs. MCI vs. AD, respectively.

Universidad Internacional do Cuanza > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés This paper focuses on retrieving plant leaf images based on different features that can be useful in the plant industry. Various images and their features can be used to identify the type of leaf and its disease. For this purpose, a well-organized computer-assisted plant image retrieval approach is required that can use a hybrid combination of the color and shape attributes of leaf images for plant disease identification and botanical gardening in the agriculture sector. In this research work, an innovative framework is proposed for the retrieval of leaf images that uses a hybrid combination of color and shape features to improve retrieval accuracy. For the color features, the Color Difference Histograms (CDH) descriptor is used while shape features are determined using the Saliency Structure Histogram (SSH) descriptor. To extract the various properties of leaves, Hue and Saturation Value (HSV) color space features and First Order Statistical Features (FOSF) features are computed in CDH and SSH descriptors, respectively. After that, the HSV and FOSF features of leaf images are concatenated. The concatenated features of database images are compared with the query image in terms of the Euclidean distance and a threshold value of Euclidean distance is taken for retrieval of images. The best results are obtained at the threshold value of 80% of the maximum Euclidean distance. The system’s effectiveness is also evaluated with different performance metrics like precision, recall, and F-measure, and their values come out to be respectively 1.00, 0.96, and 0.97, which is better than individual feature descriptors. metadata Chugh, Himani; Gupta, Sheifali; Garg, Meenu; Gupta, Deepali; Mohamed, Heba G.; Delgado Noya, Irene; Singh, Aman y Goyal, Nitin mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, irene.delgado@uneatlantico.es, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2022) An Image Retrieval Framework Design Analysis Using Saliency Structure and Color Difference Histogram.

Universidad Internacional do Cuanza > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Device-to-device (D2D) communication has attracted many researchers, cellular operators, and equipment makers as mobile traffic and bandwidth demands have increased. It supports direct communication within devices with no need for any intermediate node and, therefore, offers advantage in 5G network while providing wide cell coverage range and frequency reuse. However, establishing acceptable and secure mechanism for D2D communication which ensures confidentiality, integrity, and availability is an issue encountered in this situation. Furthermore, in a resource-constrained IoT environment, these security challenges are more critical and difficult to mitigate, especially during emergence of IoT with 5G network application scenarios. To address these issues, this paper proposed a security mechanism in 5G network for D2D wireless communication dependent on lightweight modified elliptic curve cryptography (LMECC). The proposed scheme follows a proactive routing protocol to discover services, managing link setup, and for data transfer with the aim to reduce communication overhead during user authentication. The proposed approach has been compared against Diffie–Hellman (DH) and ElGamal (ELG) schemes to evaluate the protocol overhead and security enhancement at network edge. Results proved the outstanding performance of the proposed LMECC for strengthening data secrecy with approximate 13% and 22.5% lower overhead than DH and ELG schemes. metadata Gupta, Divya; Rani, Shalli; Singh, Aman; Vidal Mazón, Juan Luis y Wang, Han mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@unic.co.ao, juanluis.vidal@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR (2022) Towards Security Mechanism in D2D Wireless Communication: A 5G Network Approach.

Therefore, the routing protocols for WBAN are designed in such a way that they can deal with dynamic changes in topology and provide maximum throughput, packet delivery ratio, average end-to-end delay, and minimum energy consumption.

Renewable energy sources are integrated to maintain the demand of consumers, mitigate the active and reactive power losses, and maintain the voltage profile. Renewable energy sources are not supplied all day and, to meet the peak demand, extra electricity may be supplied through e-Vehicles. E-Vehicles with random integration may cause system unbalancing problems and need a solution. The objective of this paper is to integrate e-Vehicles with the grid as a backup source of energy through the grid-to-vehicle optimization approach by reducing active and reactive power losses and maintaining voltage profile. In this paper, three case studies are discussed: (i) integration of renewable energy sources alone; (ii) integration of e-Vehicles alone; (iii) integration of renewable energy sources and e-Vehicles in hybrid mode. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the integration and the active and reactive power losses are minimum when we used the third case. metadata Agrawal, Himanshi; Talwariya, Akash; Gill, Amandeep; Singh, Aman; Alyami, Hashem; Alosaimi, Wael y Ortega-Mansilla, Arturo mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, arturo.ortega@uneatlantico.es (2022) A Fuzzy-Genetic-Based Integration of Renewable Energy Sources and E-Vehicles.

Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana México > Investigación > Artículos y libros Abierto Inglés Electroporation is a next generation bioelectronics device. The emerging application of electroporation requires high voltage pulses having a pulse-width in the nanosecond range. The essential use of a capacitor results in an increase in the size of the electroporator circuit. This paper discusses the modification of a conventional Marx generator circuit to achieve the high voltage electroporation pulses with a minimal chip size of the circuit. The reduced capacitors are attributed to a reduction in the number of stages used to achieve the required voltage boost. The paper proposes the improved isolation between two capacitors with the usage of optocouplers. Parametric analysis is presented to define the tuneable range of the electroporator circuit. The output voltage of 49.4 V is achieved using the proposed 5-stage MOSFET circuit with an input voltage of 12 V. metadata Ganesan, Selvakumar; Ghosh, Debarshi; Taneja, Ashu; Saluja, Nitin; Rani, Shalli; Singh, Aman; Elkamchouchi, Dalia H. y Delgado Noya, Irene mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, aman.singh@uneatlantico.es, SIN ESPECIFICAR, irene.delgado@uneatlantico.es (2022) A Modified Marx Generator Circuit with Enhanced Tradeoff between Voltage and Pulse Width for Electroporation Applications.

Universidad Internacional do Cuanza > Investigación > Producción Científica Abierto Inglés Currently, two-wheelers are the most popular mode of transportation, driven by the majority the people. Research by the World Health Organization (WHO) identifies that most two-wheeler deaths are caused due to not wearing a helmet. However, the advancement in sensors and wireless communication technology empowers one to monitor physical things such as helmets through wireless technology. Motivated by these aspects, this article proposes a wireless personal network and an Internet of Things assisted system for automating the ignition of two-wheelers with authorization and authentication through the helmet. The authentication and authorization are realized with the assistance of a helmet node and a two-wheeler node based on 2.4 GHz RF communication. The helmet node is embedded with three flex sensors utilized to experiment with different age groups and under different temperature conditions. The statistical data collected during the experiment are utilized to identify the appropriate threshold value through a t-test hypothesis for igniting the two-wheelers. The threshold value obtained after the t-test is logged in the helmet node for initiating the communication with the two-wheeler node. The pairing of the helmet node along with the RFID key is achieved through 2.4 GHZ RF communication. During real-time implementation, the helmet node updates the status to the server and LABVIEW data logger, after wearing the helmet. Along with the customization of hardware, a LABVIEW data logger is designed to visualize the data on the server side. metadata Gehlot, Anita; Singh, Rajesh; Kuchhal, Piyush; Kumar, Adesh; Singh, Aman; Alsubhi, Khalid; Ibrahim, Muhammad; Gracia Villar, Santos y Breñosa, Jose mail SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, SIN ESPECIFICAR, santos.gracia@uneatlantico.es, josemanuel.brenosa@uneatlantico.es (2021) WPAN and IoT Enabled Automation to Authenticate Ignition of Vehicle in Perspective of Smart Cities.
