Justus RabiProblem statement: This study deals with the analysis, design and comparison between fuzzy and genetic based adjustable speed drives with respect to the parameters which determines the quality of power. Approach: ASD system using fuzzy controllers provide ride-through capability during voltage sags, reduces harmonics, improves power factor and is highly reliable, whereas by using genetic algorithm optimized ASD systems, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Nov 2011 · 7,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effects of Harmonic Components on Transformer Losses of Sinusoidal Source Supplying Non-Linear LoadsI. Daut, H. S. Syafruddin, Rosnazri Ali et al.An important consideration when evaluating the impact of harmonics is their effect on power system component and loads. Transformers are major components in power systems. The increased losses due to harmonic distortion can cause excessive losses and hence abnormal temperature rise. The measurement of iron losses and copper losses of single-phase transformers is important in particular for transformers feeding nonlinear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 8,398 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDesign of a Single-Phase Rectifier with Improved Power Factor and Low THD using Boost Converter TechniqueIsmail Daut, Rosnazri Ali, Soib TaibThe method of using Boost type of converter was proposed for a 300W single-phase rectifier in this paper. By designing the necessary techniques and methodology, the overall Power Factor (PF) and Total Harmonic Distortion would be improved to the expectation. The cause of having low PF and high THD for a diode-capacitor type of rectifiers is related to non-linearity of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPsychological Effects of Youth Unemployment in GhanaChristopher M. Amissah, Kingsley NyarkoThis study investigated the psychological effects of youth unemployment in Ghana. Youths within the ages of 18 and 35 years in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana constituted the research population. A sample of 362 youths, comprising both the employed (n = 172) and the unemployed (n = 190), were purposively selected. The employed youths served as a control group … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2017 · 10,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDigital Video Watermarking in the Discrete Cosine Transform DomainSadik Ali M. Al-Taweel, Putra Sumari, Saleh Ali K. Alomari, Anas J.A. HusainProblem statement: Nowadays, digital watermarks have recently become recognized as a solution for protecting copyright of the digital multimedia. For a watermark to be useful, it must be perceptually invisible and robust against any possible attack and image processing by those who seek to corsair the material, researchers have considered various approaches like JPEG compression, geometric distortions and noising. Approach: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,246 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLossy Asymptotic Equipartition Property for Networked Data StructuresKwabena Doku-AmponsahIn this study, we prove a Generalized Information Theory for Networked Data Structures modelled as random graphs. The main tools in this study remain large deviation principles for properly defined empirical measures on random graphs. To motivate the paper, we apply our main result to a concrete example from the field of Biology. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 24 May 2017 · 6,979 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Novel Technique for Extraction Foetal Electrocardiogram using Adaptive Filtering and Simple Genetic AlgorithmMahmoud Ahmed Suliman Ali, XiaoPing ZengProblem statement: Foetal electrocardiogram (FECG) was the best method used to diagnose Foetal heart problem. Knowledge of the foetal heart signal prevents Foetal problems in the earlier stage. Recently, there has been a growing interest in noninvasive method rather than the old invasive method which was more risky for the mother's health. The most significant problem in noninvasive method is … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 10,407 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProsody Modification of Standard Arabic Speech Using Combining Synchronous Overlap and Add With Fixed-Synthesis Algorithm and Multi Level Discrete Wavelet TransformYkhlef Faycal, Bensebti Mesaoud, Bendaouia LotfiProblem statement: The objective of prosody modification is to change the amplitude, duration and pitch (F0) of speech segments without altering their spectral envelop. Applications are numerous, including, Text-To-Speech synthesis, transformation of voice characteristics and foreign language learning. Several approaches have been developed in the literature to achieve this goal. The main restrictions of these latter are in the modification … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
