PID is short for "proportional plus integral and derivative", three algorithm components used by this type of controller in managing a control loop. Process loop controllers use one, two or all three of these to optimally control the process system. PID control is used in a wide variety of applications in industrial control and process system management.
Mechatronics Engineering is concerned with the design of automated machines. It is based on a combination of mechanical, electronics, communication system, control system and software engineering, but is a distinctly different discipline to all three.
Mechatronics engineering differs from automation engineering in that its practitioners have a deep understanding of the performance analysis and design of complex machines. It differs from mechanical engineering in that its practitioners understand how automations can be designed and integrated into a machine very effectively to achieve an outcome.
Mechatronic engineers can work with electrical and mechanical systems together and solve problems that cross discipline boundaries. Their strength in IT, computer hardware and networking, as well as software, also helps them to be very versatile problem solvers.

This paper presents a efficient but also cost effective system to determine two parameters of the atmosphere, which are the temperature and humidity. The Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor 22 DHT 22 is used to measure the temperature and humidity. The temperature measured is the ambient temperature of the atmosphere and humidity is the relative humidity of the atmosphere. The system is constructed with AVR atmega8 as a controller and a LCD liquid crystal display 16x2 display as a means to display the temperature and humidity. Through the Arduino IDE Integrated Development Environment code Is uploaded to the ATmega8. Also as the display is operated in 4 bit mode thus there are many pins of the ATmega8 which are available for other purposes and the system becomes compact. Thus the small device can be adjusted in different places for use. As it is using a ATmega8 it can be used to command various devices as temperature and humidity varies. M. Matsive Ali | MD.

Augmented reality, the new age technology, has widespread applications in every field imaginable. This technology has proven to be an inflection point in numerous verticals, improving lives and improving performance. In this paper, we explore the various possible applications of Augmented Reality (AR) in the field of Medicine. The objective of using AR in medicine or generally in any field is the fact that, AR helps in motivating the user, making sessions interactive and assist in faster learning. In this paper, we discuss about the applicability of AR in the field of medical diagnosis. Augmented reality technology reinforces remote collaboration, allowing doctors to diagnose patients from a different locality. Additionally, we believe that a much more pronounced effect can be achieved by bringing together the cutting edge technology of AR and the lifesaving field of Medical sciences. AR is a mechanism that could be applied in the learning process too. Similarly, virtual reality could be used in the field where more of practical experience is needed such as driving, sports, neonatal care training.
Image fusion is a sub field of image processing in which more than one images are fused to create an image where all the objects are in focus. The process of image fusion is performed for multi-sensor and multi-focus images of the same scene. Multi-sensor images of the same scene are captured by different sensors whereas multi-focus images are captured by the same sensor. In multi-focus images, the objects in the scene which are closer to the camera are in focus and the farther objects get blurred. Contrary to it, when the farther objects are focused then closer objects get blurred in the image. To achieve an image where all the objects are in focus, the process of images fusion is performed either in spatial domain or in transformed domain. In recent times, the applications of image processing have grown immensely. Usually due to limited depth of field of optical lenses especially with greater focal length, it becomes impossible to obtain an image where all the objects are in focus. Thus, it plays an important role to perform other tasks of image processing such as image segmentation, edge detection, stereo matching and image enhancement. Hence, a novel feature-level multi-focus image fusion technique has been proposed which fuses multi-focus images. Thus, the results of extensive experimentation performed to highlight the efficiency and utility of the proposed technique is presented. The proposed work further explores comparison between fuzzy based image fusion and neuro fuzzy fusion technique along with quality evaluation indices.
Graphs have become the dominant life-form of many tasks as they advance a
structure to represent many tasks and the corresponding relations. A powerful
role of networks/graphs is to bridge local feats that exist in vertices as they
blossom into patterns that help explain how nodal relations and their edges
impacts a complex effect that ripple via a graph. User cluster are formed as a
result of interactions between entities. Many users can hardly categorize their
contact into groups today such as “family”, “friends”, “colleagues” etc. Thus,
the need to analyze such user social graph via implicit clusters, enables the
dynamism in contact management. Study seeks to implement this dynamism
via a comparative study of deep neural network and friend suggest algorithm.
We analyze a user’s implicit social graph and seek to automatically create
custom contact groups using metrics that classify such contacts based on a
user’s affinity to contacts. Experimental results demonstrate the importance
of both the implicit group relationships and the interaction-based affinity in
suggesting friends.
This paper projects Gryllidae Optimization Algorithm (GOA) has been applied to solve optimal reactive power problem. Proposed GOA approach is based on the chirping characteristics of Gryllidae. In common, male Gryllidae chirp, on the other hand some female Gryllidae also do as well. Male Gryllidae draw the females by this sound which they produce. Moreover, they caution the other Gryllidae against dangers with this sound. The hearing organs of the Gryllidae are housed in an expansion of their forelegs. Through this, they bias to the produced fluttering sounds. Proposed Gryllidae Optimization Algorithm (GOA) has been tested in standard IEEE 14, 30 bus test systems and simulation results show that the projected algorithms reduced the real power loss considerably.
In the wake of the sudden replacement of wood and kerosene by gas cookers for several purposes in Nigeria, gas leakage has caused several damages in our homes, Laboratories among others. installation of a gas leakage detection device was globally inspired to eliminate accidents related to gas leakage. We present an alternative approach to developing a device that can automatically detect and control gas leakages and also monitor temperature. The system detects the leakage of the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) using a gas sensor, then triggred the control system response which employs ventilator system, Mobile phone alert and alarm when the LPG concentration in the air exceeds a certain level. The performance of two gas sensors (MQ5 and MQ6) were tested for a guided decision. Also, when the temperature of the environment poses a danger, LED (indicator), buzzer and LCD (16x2) display was used to indicate temperature and gas leakage status in degree Celsius and PPM respectively. Attension was given to the response time of the control system, which was ascertained that this system significantly increases the chances and efficiency of eliminating gas leakage related accident.

Gentoo Penguins will move towards further penguins which possesses low cost (elevated heat concentration) of absorption. Cost is defined by the heat concentration, distance. Gentoo Penguins penguin attraction value is calculated by the amount of heat prevailed between two Gentoo penguins. Gentoo Penguins heat radiation is measured as linear. Less heat is received in longer distance, in little distance, huge heat is received. Gentoo Penguin Algorithm has been tested in standard IEEE 57 bus test system and simulation results show the projected algorithm reduced the real power loss considerably.

Notary is an official authorized to make an authentic deed regarding all deeds, agreements and stipulations required by a general rule. Activities carried out at the notary office such as recording client data and file data still use traditional systems that tend to be manual. The problem that occurs is the inefficiency in data processing and providing information to clients. Clients have difficulty getting information related to the progress of documents that are being taken care of at the notary's office. The client must take the time to arrive to the notary's office repeatedly to check the progress of the work of the document file. The purpose of this study is to facilitate clients in obtaining information about the progress of the work in progress, and make it easier for employees to process incoming documents by implementing an administrative system. This system was developed with the waterfall system development method and uses the Multi-Channel Access Technology integrated in the website to simplify the process of delivering information and requesting information from clients and to clients with Telegram and SMS Gateway. Clients will come to the office only when there is a notification from the system via Telegram or SMS notifying that the client must come directly to the notary's office, thus leading to an efficient time and avoiding excessive transportation costs. The overall functional system can function properly based on the results of alpha testing. The results of beta testing conducted by distributing the system feasibility test questionnaire to end users, get a percentage of 96% of users agree the system is feasible to be implemented.
In this work Tundra wolf algorithm (TWA) is proposed to solve the optimal reactive power problem. In the projected Tundra wolf algorithm (TWA) in order to avoid the searching agents from trapping into the local optimal the converging towards global optimal is divided based on two different conditions. In the proposed Tundra wolf algorithm (TWA) omega tundra wolf has been taken as searching agent as an alternative of indebted to pursue the first three most excellent candidates. Escalating the searching agents’ numbers will perk up the exploration capability of the Tundra wolf wolves in an extensive range. Proposed Tundra wolf algorithm (TWA) has been tested in standard IEEE 14, 30 bus test systems and simulation results show the proposed algorithm reduced the real power loss effectively.
In this work Predestination of Particles Wavering Search (PPS) algorithm has been applied to solve optimal reactive power problem. PPS algorithm has been modeled based on the motion of the particles in the exploration space. Normally the movement of the particle is based on gradient and swarming motion. Particles are permitted to progress in steady velocity in gradient-based progress, but when the outcome is poor when compared to previous upshot, immediately particle rapidity will be upturned with semi of the magnitude and it will help to reach local optimal solution and it is expressed as wavering movement. In standard IEEE 14, 30, 57,118,300 bus systems Proposed Predestination of Particles Wavering Search (PPS) algorithm is evaluated and simulation results show the PPS reduced the power loss efficiently.
In this paper, Mine Blast Algorithm (MBA) has been intermingled with Harmony Search (HS) algorithm for solving optimal reactive power dispatch problem. MBA is based on explosion of landmines and HS is based on Creativeness progression of musicians-both are hybridized to solve the problem. In MBA Initial distance of shrapnel pieces are reduced gradually to allow the mine bombs search the probable global minimum location in order to amplify the global explore capability. Harmony search (HS) imitates the music creativity process where the musicians supervise their instruments’ pitch by searching for a best state of harmony. Hybridization of Mine Blast Algorithm with Harmony Search algorithm (MH) improves the search effectively in the solution space. Mine blast algorithm improves the exploration and harmony search algorithm augments the exploitation. At first the proposed algorithm starts with exploration & gradually it moves to the phase of exploitation. Proposed Hybridized Mine Blast Algorithm with Harmony Search algorithm (MH) has been tested on standard IEEE 14, 300 bus test systems. Real power loss has been reduced considerably by the proposed algorithm. Then Hybridized Mine Blast Algorithm with Harmony Search algorithm (MH) tested in IEEE 30, bus system (with considering voltage stability index)- real power loss minimization, voltage deviation minimization, and voltage stability index enhancement has been attained.
Artificial Neural Networks have proved their efficiency in a large number of research domains. In this paper, we have applied Artificial Neural Networks on Arabic text to prove correct language modeling, text generation, and missing text prediction. In one hand, we have adapted Recurrent Neural Networks architectures to model Arabic language in order to generate correct Arabic sequences. In the other hand, Convolutional Neural Networks have been parameterized, basing on some specific features of Arabic, to predict missing text in Arabic documents. We have demonstrated the power of our adapted models in generating and predicting correct Arabic text comparing to the standard model. The model had been trained and tested on known free Arabic datasets. Results have been promising with sufficient accuracy.
In the present-day communications speech signals get contaminated due to
various sorts of noises that degrade the speech quality and adversely impacts
speech recognition performance. To overcome these issues, a novel approach
for speech enhancement using Modified Wiener filtering is developed and
power spectrum computation is applied for degraded signal to obtain the
noise characteristics from a noisy spectrum. In next phase, MMSE technique
is applied where Gaussian distribution of each signal i.e. original and noisy
signal is analyzed. The Gaussian distribution provides spectrum estimation
and spectral coefficient parameters which can be used for probabilistic model
formulation. Moreover, a-priori-SNR computation is also incorporated for
coefficient updation and noise presence estimation which operates similar to
the conventional VAD. However, conventional VAD scheme is based on the
hard threshold which is not capable to derive satisfactory performance and a
soft-decision based threshold is developed for improving the performance of
speech enhancement. An extensive simulation study is carried out using
MATLAB simulation tool on NOIZEUS speech database and a comparative
study is presented where proposed approach is proved better in comparison
with existing technique.
Previous research work has highlighted that neuro-signals of Alzheimer’s disease patients are least complex and have low synchronization as compared to that of healthy and normal subjects. The changes in EEG signals of Alzheimer’s subjects start at early stage but are not clinically observed and detected. To detect these abnormalities, three synchrony measures and wavelet-based features have been computed and studied on experimental database. After computing these synchrony measures and wavelet features, it is observed that Phase Synchrony and Coherence based features are able to distinguish between Alzheimer’s disease patients and healthy subjects. Support Vector Machine classifier is used for classification giving 94% accuracy on experimental database used. Combining, these synchrony features and other such relevant features can yield a reliable system for diagnosing the Alzheimer’s disease.
Attenuation correction designed for PET/MR hybrid imaging frameworks along with portion making arrangements used for MR-based radiation treatment remain testing because of lacking high-energy photon weakening data. We present a new method so as to uses the learned nonlinear neighborhood descriptors also highlight coordinating toward foresee pseudo-CT pictures starting T1w along with T2w MRI information. The nonlinear neighborhood descriptors are acquired through anticipating the direct descriptors interested in the nonlinear high-dimensional space utilizing an unequivocal constituent guide also low-position guess through regulated complex regularization. The nearby neighbors of every near descriptor inside the data MR pictures are looked during an obliged spatial extent of the MR pictures among the training dataset. By that point, the pseudo-CT patches are evaluated through k-closest neighbor relapse. The planned procedure designed for pseudo-CT forecast is quantitatively broke downward on top of a dataset comprising of coordinated mind MRI along with CT pictures on or after 13 subjects.
The cognitive radio prototype performance is to alleviate the scarcity of spectral resources for wireless communication through intelligent sensing and quick resource allocation techniques. Secondary users (SU’s) actively obtain the spectrum access opportunity by supporting primary users (PU’s) in cognitive radio networks (CRNs). In present generation, spectrum access is endowed through cooperative communication-based link-level frame-based cooperative (LLC) principle. In this SUs independently act as conveyors for PUs to achieve spectrum access opportunities. Unfortunately, this LLC approach cannot fully exploit spectrum access opportunities to enhance the throughput of CRNs and fails to motivate PUs to join the spectrum sharing processes. Therefore, to overcome this con, network level cooperative (NLC) principle was used, where SUs are integrated mutually to collaborate with PUs session by session, instead of frame based cooperation for spectrum access opportunities. NLC approach has justified the challenges facing in LLC approach. In this paper we make a survey of some models that have been proposed to tackle the problem of LLC. We show the relevant aspects of each model, in order to characterize the parameters that we should take in account to achieve a spectrum access opportunity.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

returned from different types of sensor in other consideration therefore this additional external circuit has not
needed [5]. Temperature control in a ventilation system using PIC18F4620 was designed and developed by
using heat resistor as the heating source to emits a heat quantity in the environment and direct current (DC)
motor as the cooling source and then generate pulse width modulation (PWM) signal as a control speed
dependent signal to control of the cooling depend on the heating difference [6]. An automatic control solution
is suggested to control the fan speed by using the PIC 16F877A and LM35DZ temperature sensor the
automatic design circuit control of fan speed depend on the change of temperature i.e. when the temperature
is high, the fan operates at high speed and vice versa. This process occurs automatically [7]. Monitoring
server room temperature has been implementation of a microcontroller based system by using kind of
microcontroller (Atmel AVR ATmega8535 microcontroller and LM35 temperature sensor), other attached
devices are used to display the room temperature as well as an alarm device is also used. The system is
equipped with a GSM modem to send a text message when the room temperature rises to a certain extent to
enter the danger zone to alert the room server supervisor for the purpose of controlling other electronic
devices within the server room [8]. Designing and implementing a modern fan speed control system based on
the changes that occur in the room temperature. This design is based on the use of PWM technology so that
changing the duty cycle depends on the room temperature and as a result leads to the control of the fan speed
movement automatically [9]. In this work, the designs of ATC system based a PIC microcontroller
(PIC16F887) and temperature sensor (LM35) for automatically control of multi appliance depend on selected
temperature values these will be lead to automatically change to appropriate appliance (ventilation, cooling,
heating and alert). The proposed system implemented and simulated by using proteus professional software v
8.0 and mikroc PRO FOR PIC v.6.6.1. The object of this system to avoiding human intervention in such
applications which then leads to eliminate or reduce dependency on humans workers for industries,
warehouse, laboratories and as a result leads to improvement the working environments and performance.
2. DESCRIPTION STRATEGY OF THE PROPOSED SYSTEM
The proposed design system are shown in the block diagram of Figure 1. The design using a MCU
type PIC16F887 as a heart control unit of the system has built in analog to digital (ADC) convertor which
receive the temperature from temperature sensor integrated circuit (IC) LM35, where it will control the three
appliance and one alert device according to the environmental temperature changes which is calculated
according to the setting values in the programming. The LM35 sensor connect to pin RA2 of PORTA of the
(MCU) this pin must be setting as analogue input by TRISA and ANSEL register by the program setting. The
LCD display connected as 4 bit mode, the 4 bit mode means connects data pins, D4 to D7 of LCD to MCU,
in this design connect to PORTD of MCU. RC0 to RC2 from PORTC of MCU selected as a control pins
connected to driver as a current source and then to relay in order to work the selected appliance required
according to program statements. RC3 connect to alert driver to generate alert signal when the temperature
degree exceed to 35 centigrade.
Figure 1. Block diagram of the proposed system
For purpose to supply electric power to operating the hardware electronics design circuit, five volts
power supply is needed. Figure 2 schematic diagram showing the circuit that performs that purpose for the
proposed system.

2.1. LM35 and PIC Interfacing
Many of the commonly used sensors available these days include remote sensing, infrared,
accelerometer, humidity sensors, temperature sensors and many others (motion sensors, alcohol sensors, gas
sensors and touch screens). Most of these sensors are analogue in their natural work. This means that it gives
direct and linear changes in the output voltage proportional to amount of sensor and according to there
environment working conditions. In case of LM35 temperature sensor the output voltage varies according to
the temperature change so that if the output voltage is 10mv per one degree centigrade, that means if output is
100mv then the temperature is 10 degrees. Therefore it is very important to know how to interface LM35
sensor with PIC16F887 MCU in order to exit with a right decision. The interfacing is needed because most of
MCUs are digital device. This means if the input level greater than 2.5v therefore the device work as the
input with high state logic one and if it is below this level (2.5v) the device read as logic low (zero volt).
Based on the clarifications above it is impossible to measure voltage directly from MCUs. Therefore, to find
solutions to this problem, the manufacturers and designers of MCUs put the mechanism of conversion analog
to digital (ADC) within most currently MCUs available in the markets. In this case the analog voltage is
converted to a corresponding number so that it can be handled and processed in MCUs without any problem.
These facilitate easy interaction approximately to all types of analog devices with MCUs. The resolution
represent a very another important element for ADCs. Because it determines the accuracy of the "ADC"
measurement of input analog signals. Commonly ADCs used are eight bit, ten bit and twelve bit. If the
reference voltage of ADC is logic zero (0 volt) to logic high (5 volt) then a 10 bit ADC will stop it in 1024
division so the accurately that can measure up to 5/1024=4.8mv approx. Another important factor for
working with ADC is the reference voltage (ADCRV). Determining the minimum and maximum limits for
voltages of analog inputs has specified by ADCRV. The PIC16F887 contains two reference voltage, the first
called the positive reference voltage (+Vref), which represents the upper or maximum limit of the incoming
analog input signal voltage and the second represents the negative reference voltage (–Vref), which
represents the minimum input analog signal voltages. Therefore, in most simple applications, this –Vref is
linked to the GND and the +Vref connected to VCC. To activate PIC16F887 to work as 10 bit ADC, the
ADC unit must gives us the value between (0 to 1023) for input voltage range of zero to five volt. So if the
reading is zero then the input is zero volt, if the reading is 1023 then the input is 5 volt.
2.2. Suggested Flow Chart
The logical representation of the proposed system software code has been presented in the flowchart
as illustrated in Figure 3.

Figure 3. Flowchart of the system
In the suggested flowchart clearly shows how the temperature control system working for control of
three appliance (heating, ventilation and cooling) and one alert system depend on the temperature input
value. The work of those functions can be illustrated as follows:
a. IF the temperature degree less than 18 centigrade, the case one will work that enable the heating system.
b. IF the temperature degree range between 18 and 28 centigrade the system in second case will work that
enable the ventilation system.
c. IF the temperature degree between the range 28 and 35 centigrade the there'd system will work that
enable cooling system.
d. An addition to three cases above a security factor will added to generate signal to enable alert device
this is done when the temperature increase to grater than 35 centigrade.

v8.0 and mikroC PRO FOR PIC program. 16X2 LCD display which is used to display the system working
status. The conditions that are checked and then for the purpose of choosing the type of work mode are done
by relying on the temperature values that are read from the temperature sensor. The result will output and
clear notes by LCD reading and corresponding LED light. This is will carefully explain in the following
working modes of the system:
4.1. Start Mode
The circuit diagram in the Figure 4. Above shows the initialize state. This is represent the start
system work that must first initialize all the system cases before the working cases take please, this done by
the initial setting of the program code. At this mode all the relays must be inactivated, all LEDs turn off and
all control signal from PORTC must be at logic zero (disable) and addition of all the above, the LCD will
display the message (System Ready and Start Temp Read).

4.5. Alert System
This is another working mode represent a safety feature of the system. It is accomplished when the
temperature will increase to reach the value grater than 35 centigrade, alert signal will generated at the pin
RC3 from PORTC of the MCU to enable the relay driver and lighting attendant LED and so by using a
buzzer to produce the alert tools to work fire system, also display the word (Alert and Fire Fire) will write at
the LCD display. All process of this mode are shown in the figure 8 below.

5. CONCLUSION AND IDEA FOR FUTURE
In this paper a proposed ATC simple and low cost for general applications temperature control
system using PIC16F887 was design and simulation. The use of this system helps to maintain the
temperature within certain limits, depending on the automatic control of the operation of the appropriate
system with each temperature change and thus possible to invest in important places such as food
warehouses, medical materials, laboratories, central switches, electronic servers and others that require
maintaining a certain temperature limit without interference or presence of the human factor as well as
guidance and send an alarm when the temperature rise and reach the dangerous stages. Think this system is
very appropriate because of its simplicity and reliability in addition to small size, low cost, low power
consumption in addition to all above facilities can be used for different places. In the future, there are several
possible improvements can be made in order to upgrade the features such as using a GSM I/O devices to send
the alert message for wide word instead of using local alert devices and may be using a wireless technologies
to interface sensor, monitor relays and microcontroller.
