Projects Distribution Algorithms for Regional Development

This paper aims to find an efficient method to assign different projects to several regions seeking an equitable distribution of the expected revenue of projects. The solutions to this problem are discussed in this paper. This problem is NP-hard. For this work, the constraint is to suppose that all regions have the same socio-economic proprieties. Given a set of regions and a set of projects. Each project is expected to elaborate a fixed revenue. The goal of this paper is to minimize the summation of the total difference between the total revenues of each region and the minimum total revenue assigned to regions. An appropriate schedule of projects is the schedule that ensures an equitable distribution of the total revenues between regions. In this paper, we give a mathematical formulation of the objective function and propose several algorithms to solve the studied problem. An experimental result is presented to discuss the comparison between all implemented algorithms.

Crime Detection Using Sentiment Analysis

Women and girls have been subjected to a great deal of violence and harassment in public locations around the country, ranging from stalking to abuse harassment and assault. This research paper examines the role of social media in improving women's safety in Indian cities, with a focus on the use of social media websites and apps such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. This research also looks at how ordinary Indians can develop a sense of responsibility in Indian society so that we can focus on the protection of women in their surroundings. Tweets on the safety of women in Indian cities, which often include images and text as well as written phrases and quotations, can be used to send a message to the Indian youth culture and encourage them to take harsh action and punish those who harass women. Twitter and other Twitter handles that feature hash tag messages are extensively used throughout the world as a channel for women to share their feelings about how they feel when going to work or travelling by public transportation and what is their mental condition when they are surrounded by unknown males, and do they feel safe or not?

An Agent-Based Simulation to Explore Communication in a System to Control Urban Traffic with Smart Traffic Lights

Populational growth increases the number of cars and makes the transport infrastructure increasingly saturated. The control of traffic lights by intelligent software is a promising way to solve the problem caused by this situation. This article addresses this problem that occurs in urban traffic. An agent-based simulation of an urban traffic control system is proposed. The solution is offered as intelligent traffic lights as agents to alleviate traffic congestion at a given location. Each agent controls a crossing and maintains communication with agents from other corners. Thus, they can have greater control of a larger area and identify patterns that can help them to solve congestion problems. The results of our simulated experiments point to the improvement of the urban traffic when using the proposed Multiagent System, in comparison with an approach that uses crossing agents without communication and other that implements static traffic lights.

A Comprehensive Performance Analysis of Neurodegenerative diseases Incidence based on Epidemiological Study in the Female subjects over varied data

Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia are gradually becoming more prevalent chronic diseases, characterized by the decline in cognitive and behavioral symptoms. Machine learning is revolu-tionising almost all domains of our life, including the clinical system. The application of machine learning has the potential to enormously augment the reach of neurodegenerative care thus building it more proficient. Throughout the globe, there is a massive burden of Alzheimer’s and demen-tia cases; which denotes an exclusive set of difficulties. This provides us with an exceptional opportunity in terms of the impending convenience of data. Harnessing this data using machine learning tools and techniques, can put scientists and physicians in the lead research position in this area. The ob-jective of this study was to develop an efficient prognostic ML model with high-performance metrics to better identify female candidate subjects at risk of having Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. The study was based on two diverse datasets. The results have been discussed employing seven perfor-mance evaluation measures i.e. accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure, Re-ceiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) area, Kappa statistic, and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). Also, a comprehensive performance analysis has been carried out later in the study.

Hybrid Measuring the Similarity Value Based on Genetic Algorithm for Improving Prediction in A Collaborative Filtering Recommendation System.

In recent years, the Recommendation System (RS) has a wide range of applications in several fields, like Education, Economics, Scientific Researches and other related fields. The Personalized Recommendation is effective in increasing RS's accuracy, based on the user interface, preferences and constraints seek to predict the most suitable product or services. Collaborative Filtering (CF) is one of the primary applications that researchers use for the prediction of the accuracy rating and recommendation of objects. Various experts in the field are using methods like Nearest Neighbors (NN) based on the measures of similarity. However, similarity measures use only the co-rated item ratings while calculating the similarity between a pair of users or items. The two standard methods used to measure similarities are Cosine Similarity (CS) and Person Correlation Similarity (PCS). However, both are having drawbacks, and the present piece of the investigation will approach through the optimized Genetic Algorithms (GA) to improve the forecast accuracy of RS using the merge output of CS with PCS based on GA methods. The results show GA's superiority and its ability to achieve more correct predictions than CS and PCS.

Analysis Performance Of Conventional Algorithm And HMS Algorithm For Four-Way Intersection With Modified Round Robin

Traffic jam is currently one of the main problems for densely populated cities like Jakarta, Indonesia. One problem that causes traffic jams in Jakarta is that the traffic lights are too fast, which causes many cars to not be able to pass the traffic lights. There are already many algorithms to overcome this problem and get the right time for traffic lights based on how many vehicles are waiting in line, such as the HMS Algorithm and Conventional Algorithm. This research objective is to compare which algorithm has better performance to find the right amount of time for traffic lights to reduce traffic jams at four-way intersections with modified Round Robin method. And the result shown that the HMS algorithm is very suitable to be used in any condition for large or little vehicles, while conventional algorithms are only suitable to use for vehicles in the one little lane or the vehicles in one lane with other lane direction in the same place of lane

Cluster Based Real Time Scheduling for Distributed System

Real time tasks scheduling on a distributed system is a complex problem. The existing real time tasks scheduling techniques are primarily based on partitioned and global scheduling. In partitioned based scheduling the tasks are assigned on a dedicated processor. The advantages of partitioned based approach is existing uni-processor scheduling techniques can be used; no migration overheads but task assignment is NP hard problem and optimal utilization of processing nodes is not possible. In global scheduling all tasks are maintained in a single tasks queue and allocated to multiple processing nodes. The advantage of global scheduling is optimal utilization of processing nodes but suffer from high migration and preemption overheads. This paper proposed cluster based real time tasks scheduling on a distributed system which is a hybrid scheduling approach where processing nodes group into cluster and scheduling using global scheduling. The simulation result shows that the proposed scheduling increases the tasks acceptance ratio, resource utilization as compared to partitioned and global scheduling and reduces migration as well as preemption overheads.
