Hand gesture recognition (HGR) using flexible sensors (flex-sensor) and the MPU6050 sensor has proved to be a key area of research in human-machine interaction, with major applications in biasing, rehabilitation, and assisted robotics. This paper proposes a wearable intelligent glove designed to operate a robotics arm in real time, relying on multi-sensor fusion and machine learning methods to enhance the system's responsiveness and precision. The proposed system enables the intuitive reproduction of hand movements and precise control of the robotic arm. In the context of Industry 4.0 and internet of things (IoT), the classification of gestures is necessary for maintaining operational efficiency. To guarantee gesture recognition, data signals from the smart glove are collected and trained by a recurrent neural network (RNN), which achieves 98.67% accuracy for real-time classification of seven gestures. Beyond industrial applications, the wearable smart glove can be exploited in a recognized circuit of all systems, including rehabilitation exercises that involve recording the progression of muscular activity for the assessment of motor functions and serve as a tool for patient recovery.

Intrusion detection systems (IDS) are critical tools designed to detect and prevent unauthorized access and potential network threats. While IDS is well-established in traditional wired networks, deploying them in wireless environments presents distinct challenges, including limited computational resources and complex infrastructure configurations. Packet sniffing and man-in-the-middle (MitM) attacks also pose significant threats, potentially compromising sensitive data and disrupting communication. Traditional security measures like firewalls may not be sufficient to detect these sophisticated attacks. This paper implements a network intrusion detection system that monitors a computer network to detect Address Resolution Protocol spoofing attacks in real-time. The system comprises three host machines forming the network. Using Kali Linux, a bash script is deployed to monitor the network for signs of address resolution protocol (ARP) poisoning. An email alert system is integrated into the bash script, running in the background as a service for the network administrator. Various ARP spoofing attack scenarios are performed on the network to evaluate the efficiency of the network IDS. Results indicate that deploying IDS as a background service ensures continuous protection against ARP spoofing and poisoning. This is crucial in dynamic network environments where threats may arise unexpectedly.

10.11591/ijece.v15i6.pp5854-5862
Ani Shabri , Ruhaidah Samsudin
Nonlinear and seasonal fluctuations present significant challenges in predicting electricity load. To address this, a combination weighted forecast model (CWFM) based on individual prediction models is proposed. The artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithm is used to optimize the weighted coefficients. To evaluate the model’s performance, the novel CWFM and three benchmark models are applied to forecast electricity load in Malaysia and Thailand. Performance is assessed using mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and root mean square error (RMSE). The experimental results indicate that the proposed combined model outperforms the single models, demonstrating improved accuracy and better capturing seasonal variations in electricity load. The ABC algorithm helps in finding the optimal combination of weights, ensuring that the model adapts effectively to different forecasting scenarios.

This research investigates and compares two nonlinear current-control strategies, backstepping control (BSC) and finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) for machine-side and grid-side converters in grid-connected direct-drive permanent magnet synchronous generator (DD-PMSG) wind turbines. Addressing the control challenges in wind energy systems with varying speeds, the study aims to determine which strategy offers superior performance under identical operating conditions. The nonlinear BSC regulates stator and grid currents using Lyapunov-based techniques, while FCS-MPC leverages model predictions to select optimal switching states based on a cost function. A comprehensive simulation using MATLAB/Simulink is conducted, analyzing each controller’s transient behavior, steady-state response, torque ripple, and power quality total harmonic distortion (THD). Results show that FCS-MPC achieves faster convergence, lower overshoot, and superior power quality compared to BSC, though it requires higher computational resources. Statistical validation supports the robustness of FCS-MPC under parameter uncertainties. This work contributes a structured comparison of advanced nonlinear strategies for PMSG-based wind turbines and provides a foundation for future implementations in real-time embedded control systems. Future directions include experimental validation and hybrid model predictive controller- artificial intelligence (MPC-AI) control frameworks.

Optimal battery sizing using modified spider monkey optimization in grid connected microgrids

10.11591/ijra.v14i4.pp356-365
Meraj Fatima , Manne Rama Subbamma
Microgrids (MGs) must have optimally sized storage and renewable energy sources to operate efficiently, economically, and reliably. MG may benefit from optimization techniques in their scheduling and sizing since they have a variety of energy sources with varying availability conditions and necessary costs. In this research, a novel modified spider monkey-based energy management system (MSM-EMS) has been proposed by increasing the photovoltaic (PV) or battery energy storage system (BESS) module capacity while minimizing grid connectivity dependency. The fundamental idea behind the proposed approach is greater dependability at the lowest feasible cost. By taking into account the BESS utilization factor and PV forced outage rates in a MG, the method becomes more realistic. Despite the absence of renewable energy sources and the grid, the proposed strategy provided critical loads according to schedule while maintaining reserve margins. Experimental findings demonstrate that the modified spider monkey optimization (MSMO)-based algorithm can determine the best BESS size and PV depending on cost. In comparison to particle swarm optimization (PSO) of $2756.1 and ABC of $2912.65, the ideal cost for EMS-MSMO is $2215.77 which is relatively low compared to the existing technique. As a result, the suggested MSMO algorithm and innovative energy management system has been optimized along with PV and battery dimensions.

10.11591/ijict.v14i3.pp802-810
S. Sivajothi Kavitha , D. Usha , V. Jamuna
Warehouses serve as essential infrastructure for storing a wide array of goods and are utilized by various entities. Implementing a sophisticated warehouse management system (WMS) represents a pinnacle of technological advancement. Effective warehouse maintenance is paramount, benefiting both consumers and producers alike. Typically, warehouses store items such as medicine, chemicals, food, and electronics, requiring controlled conditions of temperature and humidity. Monitoring these factors is essential to comply with regulations and maintain internal quality standards. This paper focuses on optimizing warehouse management to meet customer demands and streamline processes for packaging and production teams. Additionally, it proposes the integration of droid technology within warehouses to monitor the parameters and mitigate fire hazards, thereby enhancing the efficiency and safety of goods storage. This proactive approach not only ensures the integrity of stored products but also contributes to cost-saving measures within the warehouse. This paper introduces an innovative method to achieve a substantial increase in voltage output in a DC-DC converter while avoiding the need for excessively high duty ratios. The converter’s operation is governed by a single pulse width modulation (PWM) signal, employing a fractional-order proportional-integral-derivative controller (FOPID) for regulating the power switch. By merging boost-forward-fly back (BFF) converter topologies, the design achieves a remarkable voltage gain. Moreover, the converter efficiently recycles energy stored in the leakage inductance of the coupled inductor, thereby reducing voltage stress and minimizing power losses and thus enhancing overall converter efficiency.

This study aims to develop structurally controlled TiO2-based materials that serve a dual purpose as high-performance photocatalysts and optical scattering agents for white light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Hollow spherical TiO2, TiO2/Ag, and TiO2/Au particles were synthesized via a one-step spray thermolysis process using aqueous titanium citrate and titanium oxalate precursors. The method enables precise control of morphology and crystalline phase composition, producing hollow microspheres with tunable anatase–rutile ratios (10–100%) and crystallite sizes ranging from 12 to 120 nm. Photocatalytic performance, evaluated through the ultraviolet (UV) driven oxidation of methylene blue, showed that as-prepared TiO2 exhibited comparable activity to Degussa P25, while metal doping accelerated the anatase-to-rutile transition with minimal plasmonic enhancement under UV light. For LED applications, incorporating hollow TiO2 particles into YAG:Ce phosphor films improved luminous intensity, reaching a peak of ∼71 lm at 1 wt.% TiO2, and enhanced color uniformity, achieving a D-CCT as low as ∼60 K at 5 wt.%. These results confirm that spray thermolysis provides a scalable route to tailor morphology and phase composition, enabling multifunctional TiO2 materials optimized for both environmental photocatalysis and high-quality LED lighting.

This paper proposes a novel data analysis framework that integrates deep learning with a binary neuro-fuzzy algorithm to address the problem of fault localization in smart power grids. In the first stage, a long short-term memory (LSTM) network is employed to train data samples collected from smart meters. The resulting learned features are subsequently utilized by an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) for accurate fault detection and classification. Through this intelligent hybrid approach, multi-phase faults can be efficiently identified using a limited amount of data. The proposed method distinguishes itself by its capacity to rapidly train and test large datasets while maintaining high computational efficiency. To evaluate the performance of the model, an advanced simulation of the IEEE 123-node test feeder is conducted. The robustness and effectiveness of the proposed framework are validated using multiple performance metrics, including precision, recall, accuracy, F1-score, computational complexity, and the ROC curve. The results demonstrate that the proposed deep learning–based model significantly outperforms existing approaches in the literature, achieving a fault detection and classification precision of 99.99%.

In electric vehicles (EVs), safety measures must be taken to prevent dangerous accidents. Safety regulations must be in place for two important things: electric or EV batteries and EV equipment. Operating an electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS) is a challenging task. This holistic approach is used to evaluate when renewable energy is produced. It's best to focus on the popularity of EVs as more and more people choose this mode of transportation. It is important to know that power plants can be risky. Therefore, safety issues related to EV charging must be addressed quickly and appropriately. Potential safety issues with EVs include overcurrent, ground faults, and overheating. If the charging system does not work, the electric car's battery may heat up and catch fire, and overcharging may cause other problems. To avoid security risks, you must comply with security regulations, use payment devices that meet security requirements, and follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Most people suffering from temporary or permanent disabilities rely on wheelchairs or electric powered wheelchairs (EPW) to maintain autonomy of movement. To address different EPW control challenges, several studies have investigated this kind of robot. This paper focuses on the optimization of the integrator backstepping control parameters of the EPW. The system operates using two permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM), noted for their great efficiency, substantial torque, minimal noise, and robustness. At first, the dynamic model for both EPW-motors is showned. After that, a nonlinear integrator backstepping command based on Lyapunov’s second technique, which combines the choice of the energy function with the control laws, was applied to the resulting global model. To ensure optimal performance, the control parameters were tuned by means of an optimization approach. Specifically, the particle swarm optimization technique (PSO) was employed to search for the optimal parameters (gains) of the integrator backstepping controller. In order to assess the performance of the optimized backstepping–based control approach, numerical simulations were conducted to illustrate the evolution of both electrical and mechanical velocity- related variables.

Ensuring the security and privacy for the patient medical records and medical reports data is a crucial challenge as cloud-based healthcare technologies become more prevalent. For cloud-hosted medical data, internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies shows best solutions for the challenges in the medical domain. This study suggests a Secure and Transparent Multi-Key Authentication Framework that makes use of AI. Using Z-score normalization, the framework first preprocesses the data before clustering to create a multi-level multi-key security structure. The physics-informed triangulation aggregation neural network (PITANN) model in the study reduces computation costs by minimizing overhead, ensuring secure handling of location-based and medical data for enhanced data classification and encryption effectiveness. A multi-key derivation of an elliptic curve, the ElGamal cryptography scheme is presented, which allows for safe multi-key encryption with little increase in the length of the ciphertext. This method guarantees safe, confidential access to cloud-hosted encrypted health information. An envisioned amalgamation improves flexibility by enhancing performance metrics such as speed of computation while safeguarding patient information through enhanced security measures and ensuring precise medical record integrity within virtual healthcare systems.
