A novel modified SFTA approach for feature extraction
(© 2016 IEEE, 9/22/2016)
To increase the efficiency of conventional Segmentation Based Fractal Texture Analysis (SFTA), we propose a new approach on SFTA algorithm. We use an optimum multilevel thresholding hybrid method of Genetic Algorithm (GA) ...
Accelerating 2d fault diagnosis of an induction motor using a graphics processing unit
(© 2015 Science and Engineering Research Support Society, 2015)
This paper presents a computationally efficient graphics processing unit (GPU) implementation of a reliable fault diagnosis method using two-dimensional (2D) representation of vibration signals. The fault diagnosis method ...
Chondrobot-2: A simple and efficient semi-autonomous tele-robotic lunar excavator
(© 2012 IEEE, 2012)
A simple, light-weight and efficient excavation system to excavate and collect lunar regolith has been developed at BRAC university. The excavation system has a dimension of 1.21m × 0.66m × 0.74m with a total weight of 65 ...
Clustering and detection of good and bad rail line anchors from images
(© 2015 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-06)
Absence of railway anchors/fasteners is a serious concern as it might lead to severe consequences such as train derailments. Hence regular inspection is an obligation to ensure safety. The third world countries choose the ...
A looking-out portal (LOP) approach to enhance qualitative aspects of bandwidth utilisation in academic networks
(© 2011 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2011-11)
Campuses of educational institutions periodically need to increase network bandwidth to keep up with increased demand and this decision is based on the quantitative aspects of the network bandwidth utilisation. The qualitative ...
Grouping of handwritten Bangla basic characters, numerals and vowel modifiers for multilayer classification
(© 2012 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2012)
For better performance in multilayer or hierarchical classification of handwritten text, appropriate grouping of similar symbols is very important. Here we aim to develop a reliable grouping schema for the similar looking ...
LVQ and HOG based speed limit traffic signs detection and categorization
(© 2014 IEEE Computer Society, 2014)
The proper identification of the traffic signs can ensure driving safety and can play a very important role in reducing the number of road accidents significantly. This paper represents a uniform way to detect the speed ...
A three level solar panel system with an automated solar tracker
(© 2014 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014-07)
In this work, a detailed performance analysis of a three level solar panel system intended for its use in urban residential areas is carried out. The system consists of three panels fitted with automated solar tracker and ...
A two-seater light-weight solar powered clean car: preliminary design and economic analysis
(© 2014 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2014-07)
This paper outlines the design of a prototype solar powered light-weight economically affordable clean car for the daily office commuters of Dhaka city. Calculation in this paper shows that the solar power alone will be ...
Line profile-based fingerprint matching
(© 2017 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2/21/2017)
Traditional fingerprint matching algorithms primarily focus on minutiae points on fingertip surface. In this paper, a novel approach is proposed for fingerprint matching that is based on ridge and valley characteristics ...
