Programming Bug announcing is a vital piece of the product advancement process. When a Bug is accounted for on the Bug detection, their qualities are broken down and along these lines relegated to different fixers for their goals. Bug severity, a characteristic of a product bug survey is the level of effect that imperfection has on the advancement or activity of a segment or framework. In this paper, an endeavour has been made to show the pertinence of AI calculations to be specific SVM, KNN, Naïve Bayes, Naïve Bayes Multinomial, J48 and RIPPER in order to find out which classification algorithm is accurate to find the bug severity. The pertinence of the calculation in deciding the different degrees of bug severity for bug storehouses have been approved utilizing different execution measures by applying 5-overlap cross-approval.

In this era, the world needs solutions to improve the health and hence the immunity of working people. Over the past few years, several kinds of research occurred that deals with human-centric lighting (HCL) design which can entrain the circadian rhythm of people. This paper investigates various circadian light metrics and hence to perform a choice making for a user to select a tunable LED for HCL design. Here the capability of a selected tunable LED lamp source to complement an interior space is quantified to provide the best visual comfort and to entrain occupant circadian rhythm. Along with the Spectral Power Distribution(SPD) of the luminaire, evaluated the Correlated Color Temperature(CCT), the Color Rendering Index(CRI), the Fidelity index(Rf) and the Gamut Area Index(Rg) to establish the colour quality of the source. Here considered Melanopic-Photopic (M/P) ratio, Circadian Stimulus, and Equivalent Melanopic Lux (EML) for relating the circadian entrainment. Finally, this study aims to propose a methodology for analyzing and customizing the individual spaces for HCL design with tunable LED fixtures.

In most parts of the world, agriculture is an important source of livelihood. This entails hard work, but it contributes to the nation’s food safety and health. The harvest majorly depends on soil fertility, moisture level and also the level of fertilizers used. Time and distance are the major factors that limits farmers in performing the laboratory analysis of nutrients. Due to this inconvenience caused, nutrient testing is not performed regularly, which results the soil to lose its fertility. Using the concept of Internet of Things (IoT) a system is proposed which adopts precision agriculture in order to overcome such drawbacks and to remotely monitor the soil characteristics like soil moisture and its nutrients. Awareness about the quantity of nutrients present in the soil is essential to ensure optimum usage of fertilizers and constant monitoring of irrigation is also required for better productivity. The sensors are integrated with arduino microcontroller and the values obtained from the sensors are transmitted to the cloud and displayed in a mobile application. The proposed IoT based software system has the intelligence to measure the moisture level and quantity of the nutrients using colorimetry which improves the quality of the soil and ensures optimum growth of the crop.

The MPP finished capacitors may be of dry type or oil type. This paper represents the testing and analysis of the impregnated oil MPP capacitors. The different dielectric oil is used to impregnate these capacitors. The palm oil, Olive oil, and sunflower oil are the three different dielectric liquids which are used as impregnated fluid. The electrical properties of all the oils are tested according to the liquid insulation standards. The capacitor considered for the test is a MPP capacitor single element and its value is 2.0μF/400V. The capacitor to be tested was impregnated at different temperature levels. From the test results, it is found that dielectric oil type, the treated temperature level and space factor affected to the value of capacitance.

The reliability of the power system can be enhanced in a microgrid by connecting different types of distribution generation sources. Due to the adding of different types of distribution generation sources the power systems are getting larger day by day. As a result, there will be excessive fault current in the system. As superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) has negligible power loss and capacity to limit the fault currents, the microgrid can be protected from excessive fault current by connecting SFCL into the microgrid with distribution generation sources. In this paper transient stability enhancement of a microgrid consisting of solar PV and DFIG based wind turbine system using Bridge type SFCL has been modeled in MATLAB Simulink and satisfactory results has been obtained.

The main objective of this paper is to identify centroids for the given image using connected component labeling technique. Imaging radars are used to acquire the images of the required target and it produces 2D images. The imaging radar used here is wall penetrating radar which explores the targets behind the wall. The images obtained from this imaging radar are subjected to some processes like thresholding and filtering in order to improve the image characteristics. The region of interest is then defined using a technique called connected component labeling where the image is scanned and the pixels grouped into components based on pixel connectivity. All the pixels in the connected component of an image exhibit same pixel intensity values which are connected together. When all the groups in an image have been identified then each pixel will be labeled with a gray level or color labeling based on the component it was specified. Finally, these individually identified objects are located with centroid, these centroids show the presence of the targets. The main goal is to remove noise/clutters in an image in an efficient manner and to locate individual object in an image by a single point called centroid.

In the transmission lines, Capacitive VARs are generated due to load shedding and switching operation. Shunt reactors are used as shunt compensation devices. To reduce the vibration and noise of a reactor, various techniques have been proposed in this paper. Flux distribution are analyzed using finite element method to optimize the induction. This paper focuses on, the method of determining the optimal air gap between cheese core packets, yoke center and optimal induction so that the displacements caused by contraction due to electromagnetic force and extension due to magnetostriction force cancelled each other. In this paper, a case study of 400 kV class shunt reactor have been discussed.

Brain tumour is the collection or growth of abnormal cells in brain. The tumours can develop from nerve cells, brain cells, membranes, glands, glial cells, etc. For treating patients with brain tumours, it is important to segment the brain tumour area accurately. The Generative adversarial network (GAN) is a promising deep neural network technique which has two neural networks namely Generator and Discriminator which acts opposite to each other. This paper proposes FCSE-GAN (Feature Concatenation based Squeeze and Excitation-GAN) for segmenting the brain tumour area in MRI. The proposed FCSE-GAN uses ResNet as basic neural network architecture. It includes feature concatenation technique with generator for generating sharp MRI images and Squeeze and excitation block with discriminator for segmenting the brain tumour area. The experiments were conducted using Brain MRI image dataset from Kaggle on WGAN-GP, Info-GAN and FCSE-GAN architectures. The experimental results shows that FCSE-GAN yields better accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score when compared to WGAN-GP and Info-GAN.

A Water Quality Monitoring (WQM) system with solar energy harvesting for long term uninterrupted monitoring is proposed. The device consists of a solar panel charging a lithium battery with a solar charge controller. The system uses solar energy whenever there is sufficient sunlight, and the lithium battery stores the energy for future use such as overcast, rain, and night. The solar charge controller ensures the lithium battery has a long life with an appropriate charging method, which shortens the frequency of the battery charge-discharge cycle. This system can be implemented with small power equipment which is especially suitable for outdoor-based wireless sensor nodes in the Internet of Things (IoT). The ultimate aim of this research is to develop a perpetually powered water quality monitoring system for aquaculture minimizing the periodical maintenance for battery replacement or recharging. The energy harvesting system designed for this research has been experimentally verified and can increase the lifetime of this WQM system.
