The document compares three image compression algorithms: Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), and a hybrid DCT-DWT algorithm. DCT is used in JPEG and provides simple hardware implementation but can cause blocking artifacts at high compression. DWT provides multi-resolution decomposition and achieves higher compression ratios but requires more computation. The hybrid algorithm aims to combine the advantages of DCT and DWT by applying DWT followed by DCT, allowing for better performance than either individual method. Experimental results showed the hybrid approach generally had better performance in terms of PSNR, MSE, and compression ratio.

Efficient Image Compression Technique using JPEG2000 with Adaptive ThresholdCSCJournals
Image compression is a technique to reduce the size of image which is helpful for transforms. Due to the limited communication bandwidth we have to need optimum compressed image with good visual quality. Although the JPEG2000 compression technique is ideal for image processing as it uses DWT (Discrete Wavelet Transform).But in this paper we proposed fast and efficient image compression scheme using JPEG2000 technique with adaptive subband threshold. Actually we used subband adaptive threshold in decomposition section which gives us more compression ratio and good visual quality other than existing compression techniques. The subband adaptive threshold that concentrates on denoising each subband (except lowest coefficient subbands) by minimizing insignificant coefficients and adapt with modified coefficients which are significant and more responsible for image reconstruction. Finally we use embedded block coding with optimized truncation (EBCOT) entropy coder that gives three different passes which gives more compressed image. This proposed method is compared to other existing approach and give superior result that satisfy the human visual quality and also these resulting compressed images are evaluated by the performance parameter PSNR.
This document discusses and compares different image compression techniques. It proposes a hybrid technique combining discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and Huffman encoding. DWT is applied to decompose images into frequency subbands, then DCT is applied to the low-frequency subbands. Huffman encoding is also used. This hybrid technique achieves higher compression ratios than standalone DWT and DCT, with better peak signal-to-noise ratios to measure reconstructed image quality. Simulation results on medical and other images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid compression method.
REVIEW ON TRANSFORM BASED MEDICAL IMAGE COMPRESSION cscpconf
Advance medical imaging requires storage of large quantities of digitized clinical data. Due to
the bandwidth and storage limitations, medical images must be compressed before transmission
and storage. Diagnosis is effective only when compression techniques preserve all the relevant
and important image information needed. There are basically two types of image compression:
lossless and lossy. Lossless coding does not permit high compression ratios where as lossy
achieve high compression ratio. Among the existing lossy compression schemes, transform
coding is one of the most effective strategies. In this paper, a review has been made on the
different compression techniques on medical images based on transforms like Discrete Cosine
Transform(DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT), Hybrid DCT-DWT and Contourlet
transform. And it has been analyzed that Contourlet transform have superior overall
performance over other transforms in terms of PSNR.
This document proposes an enhanced adaptive data hiding technique in the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) domain. It begins with background information on DWT and quantization techniques like uniform and adaptive quantization. It then describes how data can be embedded in the non-zero DWT coefficients after adaptive quantization. Specifically, it embeds secret data by modifying the quantized DWT coefficients in a way that minimizes distortion to maintain good visual quality of the cover image. The goal is to improve data hiding capacity while preserving the quality of the cover image as measured by metrics like peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and the human visual system (HVS).

A Novel and Robust Wavelet based Super Resolution Reconstruction of Low Resol...CSCJournals
High Resolution images can be reconstructed from several blurred, noisy and aliased low resolution images using a computational process know as super resolution reconstruction. Super resolution reconstruction is the process of combining several low resolution images into a single higher resolution image. In this paper we concentrate on a special case of super resolution problem where the wrap is composed of pure translation and rotation, the blur is space invariant and the noise is additive white Gaussian noise. Super resolution reconstruction consists of registration, restoration and interpolation phases. Once the Low resolution image are registered with respect to a reference frame then wavelet based restoration is performed to remove the blur and noise from the images, finally the images are interpolated using adaptive interpolation. We are proposing an efficient wavelet based denoising with adaptive interpolation for super resolution reconstruction. Under this frame work, the low resolution images are decomposed into many levels to obtain different frequency bands. Then our proposed novel soft thresholding technique is used to remove the noisy coefficients, by fixing optimum threshold value. In order to obtain an image of higher resolution we have proposed an adaptive interpolation technique. Our proposed wavelet based denoising with adaptive interpolation for super resolution reconstruction preserves the edges as well as smoothens the image without introducing artifacts. Experimental results show that the proposed approach has succeeded in obtaining a high-resolution image with a high PSNR, ISNR ratio and a good visual quality.
Hybrid Digital Image Watermarking using Contourlet Transform (CT), DCT and SVDCSCJournals
Role of watermarking is dramatically enhanced due to the emerging technologies like IoT, Data analysis, and automation in many sectors of identity. Due to these many devices are connected through internet and networking and large amounts of data is generated and transmitted. Here security of the data is very much needed. The algorithm used for the watermarking is to be robust against various processes (attacks) such as filtering, compression and cropping etc. To increase the robustness, in the paper a hybrid algorithm is proposed by combining three transforms such as Contourlet, Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). Performance of Algorithm is evaluated by using similarity metrics such as NCC, MSE and PSNR.
2.[9 17]comparative analysis between dct & dwt techniques of image compressionAlexander Decker
This document compares two image compression techniques: discrete cosine transform (DCT) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT). It summarizes the encoding and decoding processes for each technique. For DCT, images are divided into blocks and the DCT is applied to each block before quantization for compression. For DWT, images are decomposed into approximation and detail subsignals using filters before downsampling for compression. Simulation results on sample images show that DWT achieves higher compression ratios with less information loss than DCT, though DCT requires less processing power. In conclusion, both techniques are effective for image compression but DWT is generally more efficient.

3. The technique achieves a compression ratio of around 27 for a set of 8 frames, better than 2D JPEG. By exploiting correlations in both spatial and temporal dimensions, 3D-DCT allows for improved compression over 2D transforms.
Image compression using Hybrid wavelet Transform and their Performance Compa...IJMER
Images may be worth a thousand words, but they generally occupy much more space in hard disk, or
bandwidth in a transmission system, than their proverbial counterpart. Compressing an image is significantly
different than compressing raw binary data. Of course, general purpose compression programs can be used to
compress images, but the result is less than optimal. This is because images have certain statistical properties
which can be exploited by encoders specifically designed for them. Also, some of the finer details in the image
can be sacrificed for the sake of saving a little more bandwidth or storage space. Compression is the process of
representing information in a compact form. Compression is a necessary and essential method for creating
image files with manageable and transmittable sizes. The data compression schemes can be divided into
lossless and lossy compression. In lossless compression, reconstructed image is exactly same as compressed
image. In lossy image compression, high compression ratio is achieved at the cost of some error in reconstructed
image. Lossy compression generally provides much higher compression than lossless compression.
Evaluation of graphic effects embedded image compression IJECEIAES
A fundamental factor of digital image compression is the conversion processes. The intention of this process is to understand the shape of an image and to modify the digital image to a grayscale configuration where the encoding of the compression technique is operational. This article focuses on an investigation of compression algorithms for images with artistic effects. A key component in image compression is how to effectively preserve the original quality of images. Image compression is to condense by lessening the redundant data of images in order that they are transformed cost-effectively. The common techniques include discrete cosine transform (DCT), fast Fourier transform (FFT), and shifted FFT (SFFT). Experimental results point out compression ratio between original RGB images and grayscale images, as well as comparison. The superior algorithm improving a shape comprehension for images with grahic effect is SFFT technique.

This document compares the performance of discrete cosine transform (DCT) and wavelet transform for gray scale image compression. It analyzes seven types of images compressed using these two techniques and measured performance using peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). The results show that wavelet transform outperforms DCT at low bit rates due to its better energy compaction. However, DCT performs better than wavelets at high bit rates near 1bpp and above. So wavelets provide better compression performance when higher compression is required.
This document compares the DCT and DWT image compression techniques. It finds that DWT provides higher compression ratios and avoids blocking artifacts compared to DCT. DWT allows better localization in both spatial and frequency domains. It also finds that DCT takes more time for compression than DWT. Experimental results on test images show that DWT achieves higher PSNR and lower MSE and BER than DCT, indicating better reconstructed image quality at the same compression ratio. In conclusion, DWT is found to provide better compression performance than DCT for images.

A zigzag buffer reorders the coefficients in zigzag format. The design was synthesized to Xilinx Spartan-3E FPGA and achieved a maximum frequency of 101.35MHz, processing an 8x8 block in 6604ns with a pipeline latency of 140 cycles.
This document compares the performance of discrete cosine transform (DCT) and wavelet transform for gray scale image compression. It analyzes seven types of images compressed using these two techniques and measured performance using peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR). The results show that wavelet transform outperforms DCT at low bit rates due to its better energy compaction. However, DCT performs better than wavelets at high bit rates near 1bpp and above. So wavelets provide better compression performance when higher compression is required.
This document compares the DCT and DWT image compression techniques. It finds that DWT provides higher compression ratios and avoids blocking artifacts compared to DCT. DWT allows better localization in both spatial and frequency domains. It also finds that DCT takes more time for compression than DWT. Experimental results on test images show that DWT achieves higher PSNR and lower MSE and BER than DCT, indicating better reconstructed image quality at the same compression ratio. In conclusion, DWT is found to provide better compression performance than DCT for images.
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a hybrid image compression algorithm using discrete wavelet transform (DWT), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and Huffman encoding. The algorithm first applies 2D-DWT to blocks of the input image, discarding high-frequency coefficients. It then applies 4x4 2D-DCT to the low-frequency DWT coefficients. Huffman coding is then used to assign codes to the DCT coefficients. Experimental results on medical and other images show the hybrid algorithm achieves higher compression ratios and peak signal-to-noise ratios than using DWT or DCT alone.

Jpeg image compression using discrete cosine transform a surveyIJCSES Journal
Due to the increasing requirements for transmission of images in computer, mobile environments, the
research in the field of image compression has increased significantly. Image compression plays a crucial
role in digital image processing, it is also very important for efficient transmission and storage of images.
When we compute the number of bits per image resulting from typical sampling rates and quantization
methods, we find that Image compression is needed. Therefore development of efficient techniques for
image compression has become necessary .This paper is a survey for lossy image compression using
Discrete Cosine Transform, it covers JPEG compression algorithm which is used for full-colour still image
applications and describes all the components of it.
Effect of Block Sizes on the Attributes of Watermarking Digital ImagesDr. Michael Agbaje
This work examines the effect of block sizes on attributes (robustness, capacity, time of watermarking, visibility and distortion) of watermarked digital images using Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) function. The DCT function breaks up the image into various frequency bands and allows watermark data to be easily embedded. The advantage of this transformation is the ability to pack input image data into a few coefficients. The block size 8 x 8 is commonly used in watermarking. The work investigates the effect of using block sizes below and above 8 x 8 on the attributes of watermark. The attributes of robustness and capacity increase as the block size increases (62-70db, 31.5-35.9 bit/pixel). The time for watermarking reduces as the block size increases. The watermark is still visible for block sizes below 8 x 8 but invisible for those above it. Distortion decreases sharply from a high value at 2 x 2 block size to minimum at 8 x 8 and gradually increases with block size. The overall observation indicates that watermarked image gradually reduces in quality due to fading above 8 x 8 block size. For easy detection of image against piracy the block size 16 x 16 gives the best output result because it closely resembles the original image in terms of visual quality displayed despite the fact that it contains a hidden watermark.
2.[9 17]comparative analysis between dct & dwt techniques of image compressionAlexander Decker
This document compares two image compression techniques: Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). It first describes DCT encoding and decoding. Encoding breaks an image into blocks, applies DCT, and quantizes coefficients. Decoding dequantizes and applies inverse DCT. Simulation results show compressed images from three sample images using 8x8 DCT blocks. DCT achieves good compression ratios but introduces block artifacts. DWT provides better compression without losing as much information but requires more processing power. The document aims to analyze and compare the performance of these two techniques.

This document summarizes a research paper on 3D discrete cosine transform (DCT) for image compression. It discusses how 3D-DCT video compression works by dividing video streams into groups of 8 frames treated as 3D images with 2 spatial and 1 temporal component. Each frame is divided into 8x8 blocks and each 8x8x8 cube is independently encoded using 3D-DCT, quantization, and entropy encoding. It achieves better compression ratios than 2D JPEG by exploiting correlations across multiple frames. The document provides details on the 3D-DCT compression and decompression process. It reports that testing on a set of 8 images achieved a compression ratio of around 27 with this technique.
The document summarizes an efficient image compression technique using Overlapped Discrete Cosine Transform (MDCT) combined with adaptive thinning.
In the first phase, MDCT is applied which is based on DCT-IV but with overlapping blocks, enabling robust compression. In the second phase, adaptive thinning recursively removes points from the image based on Delaunay triangulations, further compressing the image. Simulation results showed over 80% pixel reduction with 30dB PSNR, requiring less points for the compressed image. The technique combines MDCT for frequency-domain compression with adaptive thinning for spatial-domain compression.

The document discusses efficient VLSI implementations of image encryption using minimal operations. It proposes using discrete cosine transform (DCT) for image compression and encryption simultaneously. For encryption, a linear feedback shift register generates random numbers added to some DCT outputs. The DCT algorithm and arithmetic operators are optimized to reduce operations and increase throughput. Simulation results show encryption in the frequency domain at 656 million samples per second on an 82 MHz clock.
This document compares DCT and wavelet transform based image compression algorithms. It finds that wavelet transforms provide better compression ratios and lower mean square errors than DCT. As the level of the wavelet transform increases, the compression ratio increases while the mean square error initially decreases for wavelet levels 1-3. While DCT has faster encoding, it produces blocking artifacts, whereas wavelet transforms maintain good visual quality at higher compression ratios by considering correlations across blocks. Overall, the study shows that wavelet transforms enable higher compression with better visual quality than DCT.

A spatial image compression algorithm based on run length encodingjournalBEEI
Image compression is vital for many areas such as communication and storage of data that is rapidly growing nowadays. In this paper, a spatial lossy compression algorithm for gray scale images is presented. It exploits the inter-pixel and the psycho-visual data redundancies in images. The proposed technique finds paths of connected pixels that fluctuate in value within some small threshold. The path is calculated by looking at the 4-neighbors of a pixel then choosing the best one based on two conditions; the first is that the selected pixel must not be included in another path and the second is that the difference between the first pixel in the path and the selected pixel is within the specified threshold value. A path starts with a given pixel and consists of the locations of the subsequently selected pixels. Run-length encoding scheme is applied on paths to harvest the inter-pixel redundancy. After applying the proposed algorithm on several test images, a promising quality vs. compression ratio results have been achieved.
The document presents a new efficient color image compression technique that aims to improve the quality of decompressed images while achieving higher compression ratios. It does this by compressing important edge parts of the image differently than non-edge background parts. Specifically, it applies low-quality lossy compression to non-edge parts and high-quality lossy compression to edge parts. The technique uses edge detection, adaptive thresholding based on local variance and mean, and discrete cosine transform followed by quantization and entropy encoding. Experimental results on various images show it achieves better compression ratios, lower bit rates, and higher peak signal to noise ratios compared to non-adaptive methods.

This document summarizes a research paper that uses genetic algorithms to optimize traffic light timing at intersections to minimize traffic. It first describes modeling traffic light intersections using Petri nets. It then explains how genetic algorithms can be used for optimization by coding the problem variables in chromosomes, defining a fitness function to evaluate populations over generations, and using operators like mutation and crossover. The fitness function aims to minimize average traffic light cycle times based on 14 parameters related to light timing and vehicle wait times at two intersections. The genetic algorithm optimization of traffic light timing parameters is found to improve traffic flow at intersections.

License plate recognition system is one of the core technologies in intelligent traffic control. In this paper, a new and tunable algorithm which can detect multiple license plates in high resolution applications is proposed. The algorithm aims at investigation into and identification of the novel Iranian and some European countries plate, characterized by both inclusion of blue area on it and its geometric shape. Obviously, the suggested algorithm contains suitable velocity due to not making use of heavy pre-processing operation such as image-improving filters, edge-detection operation and omission of noise at the beginning stages. So, the recommended method of ours is compatible with model-adaptation, i.e., the very blue section of the plate so that the present method indicated the fact that if several plates are included in the image, the method can successfully manage to detect it. We evaluated our method on the two Persian single vehicle license plate data set that we obtained 99.33, 99% correct recognition rate respectively. Further we tested our algorithm on the Persian multiple vehicle license plate data set and we achieved 98% accuracy rate. Also we obtained approximately 99% accuracy in character recognition stage.

Using Virtualization Technique to Increase Security and Reduce Energy Consump...IJORCS
An approach has been presented in this paper in order to generate a secure environment on internet Based Virtual Computing platform and also to reduce energy consumption in green cloud computing. The proposed approach constantly checks the accuracy of stored data by means of a central control service inside the network environment and also checks system security through isolating single virtual machines using a common virtual environment. This approach has been simulated on two types of Virtual Machine Manager (VMM) Quick EMUlator (Qemu), HVM (Hardware Virtual Machine) Xen and outputs of the simulation in VMInsight show that when service is getting singly used, the overhead of its performance will be increased. As a secure system, the proposed approach is able to recognize malicious behaviors and assure service security by means of operational integrity measurement. Moreover, the rate of system efficiency has been evaluated according to the amount of energy consumption on five applications (Defragmentation, Compression, Linux Boot Decompression and Kernel Boot). Therefore, this has been resulted that to secure multi-tenant environment, managers and supervisors should independently install a security monitoring system for each Virtual Machines (VMs) which will come up to have the management heavy workload of. While the proposed approach, can respond to all VM’s with just one virtual machine as a supervisor.
Algebraic Fault Attack on the SHA-256 Compression FunctionIJORCS
The cryptographic hash function SHA-256 is one member of the SHA-2 hash family, which was proposed in 2000 and was standardized by NIST in 2002 as a successor of SHA-1. Although the differential fault attack on SHA-1compression function has been proposed, it seems hard to be directly adapted to SHA-256. In this paper, an efficient algebraic fault attack on SHA-256 compression function is proposed under the word-oriented random fault model. During the attack, an automatic tool STP is exploited, which constructs binary expressions for the word-based operations in SHA-256 compression function and then invokes a SAT solver to solve the equations. The simulation of the new attack needs about 65 fault injections to recover the chaining value and the input message block with about 200 seconds on average. Moreover, based on the attack on SHA-256 compression function, an almost universal forgery attack on HMAC-SHA-256 is presented. Our algebraic fault analysis is generic, automatic and can be applied to other ARX-based primitives.
Enhancement of DES Algorithm with Multi State LogicIJORCS
The principal goal to design any encryption algorithm must be the security against unauthorized access or attacks. Data Encryption Standard algorithm is a symmetric key algorithm and it is used to secure the data. Enhanced DES algorithm works on increasing the key length or complex S-BOX design or increased the number of states in which the information is to be represented or combination of above criteria. By increasing the key length, the number of combinations for key will increase which is hard for the intruder to do the brute force attack. As the S-BOX design will become the complex there will be a good avalanche effect. As the number of states increases in which the information is represented, it is hard for the intruder to crack the actual information. Proposed algorithm replace the predefined XOR operation applied during the 16 round of the standard algorithm by a new operation called “Hash function” depends on using two keys. One key used in “F” function and another key consists of a combination of 16 states (0,1,2…13,14,15) instead of the ordinary 2 state key (0, 1). This replacement adds a new level of protection strength and more robustness against breaking methods.
Hybrid Simulated Annealing and Nelder-Mead Algorithm for Solving Large-Scale ...IJORCS
This paper presents a new algorithm for solving large scale global optimization problems based on hybridization of simulated annealing and Nelder-Mead algorithm. The new algorithm is called simulated Nelder-Mead algorithm with random variables updating (SNMRVU). SNMRVU starts with an initial solution, which is generated randomly and then the solution is divided into partitions. The neighborhood zone is generated, random number of partitions are selected and variables updating process is starting in order to generate a trail neighbor solutions. This process helps the SNMRVU algorithm to explore the region around a current iterate solution. The Nelder- Mead algorithm is used in the final stage in order to improve the best solution found so far and accelerates the convergence in the final stage. The performance of the SNMRVU algorithm is evaluated using 27 scalable benchmark functions and compared with four algorithms. The results show that the SNMRVU algorithm is promising and produces high quality solutions with low computational costs.

Voice Recognition System using Template MatchingIJORCS
It is easy for human to recognize familiar voice but using computer programs to identify a voice when compared with others is a herculean task. This is due to the problem that is encountered when developing the algorithm to recognize human voice. It is impossible to say a word the same way in two different occasions. Human speech analysis by computer gives different interpretation based on varying speed of speech delivery. This research paper gives detail description of the process behind implementation of an effective voice recognition algorithm. The algorithm utilize discrete Fourier transform to compare the frequency spectra of two voice samples because it remained unchanged as speech is slightly varied. Chebyshev inequality is then used to determine whether the two voices came from the same person. The algorithm is implemented and tested using MATLAB.
Channel Aware Mac Protocol for Maximizing Throughput and FairnessIJORCS
The proper channel utilization and the queue length aware routing protocol is a challenging task in MANET. To overcome this drawback we are extending the previous work by improving the MAC protocol to maximize the Throughput and Fairness. In this work we are estimating the channel condition and Contention for a channel aware packet scheduling and the queue length is also calculated for the routing protocol which is aware of the queue length. The channel is scheduled based on the channel condition and the routing is carried out by considering the queue length. This queue length will provide a measurement of traffic load at the mobile node itself. Depending upon this load the node with the lesser load will be selected for the routing; this will effectively balance the load and improve the throughput of the ad hoc network.

Congestion Prediction and Adaptive Rate Adjustment Technique for Wireless Sen...IJORCS
In general, nodes in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are equipped with limited battery and computation capabilities but the occurrence of congestion consumes more energy and computation power by retransmitting the data packets. Thus, congestion should be regulated to improve network performance. In this paper, we propose a congestion prediction and adaptive rate adjustment technique for Wireless Sensor Networks. This technique predicts congestion level using fuzzy logic system. Node degree, data arrival rate and queue length are taken as inputs to the fuzzy system and congestion level is obtained as an outcome. When the congestion level is amidst moderate and maximum ranges, adaptive rate adjustment technique is triggered. Our technique prevents congestion by controlling data sending rate and also avoids unsolicited packet losses. By simulation, we prove the proficiency our technique. It increases system throughput and network performance significantly.
A Study of Routing Techniques in Intermittently Connected MANETsIJORCS
A Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET) is a self-configuring infrastructure less network of mobile devices connected by wireless. These are a kind of wireless Ad hoc Networks that usually has a routable networking environment on top of a Link Layer Ad hoc Network. The routing approach in MANET includes mainly three categories viz., Reactive Protocols, Proactive Protocols and Hybrid Protocols. These traditional routing schemes are not pertinent to the so called Intermittently Connected Mobile Ad hoc Network (ICMANET). ICMANET is a form of Delay Tolerant Network, where there never exists a complete end – to – end path between two nodes wishing to communicate. The intermittent connectivity araise when network is sparse or highly mobile. Routing in such a spasmodic environment is arduous. In this paper, we put forward the indication of prevailing routing approaches for ICMANET with their benefits and detriments
Improving the Efficiency of Spectral Subtraction Method by Combining it with ...IJORCS
In the field of speech signal processing, Spectral subtraction method (SSM) has been successfully implemented to suppress the noise that is added acoustically. SSM does reduce the noise at satisfactory level but musical noise is a major drawback of this method. To implement spectral subtraction method, transformation of speech signal from time domain to frequency domain is required. On the other hand, Wavelet transform displays another aspect of speech signal. In this paper we have applied a new approach in which SSM is cascaded with wavelet thresholding technique (WTT) for improving the quality of speech signal by removing the problem of musical noise to a great extent. Results of this proposed system have been simulated on MATLAB.
An Adaptive Load Sharing Algorithm for Heterogeneous Distributed SystemIJORCS
This summarizes a research paper that proposes an adaptive load sharing algorithm for heterogeneous distributed systems. The algorithm aims to balance load across nodes by migrating tasks from overloaded nodes to underloaded nodes, taking into account factors like node processing capacities, link capacities, and communication delays. It formulates mathematical models to represent changes in waiting times as tasks are added, completed or migrated between nodes. The goal is to minimize overall response times through decentralized load balancing decisions made locally at each node.

Modeling the behavior of the cognitive architecture in the context of social simulation using statistical methodologies is currently a growing research area. Normally, a cognitive architecture for an intelligent agent involves artificial computational process which exemplifies theories of cognition in computer algorithms under the consideration of state space. More specifically, for such cognitive system with large state space the problem like large tables and data sparsity are faced. Hence in this paper, we have proposed a method using a value iterative approach based on Q-learning algorithm, with function approximation technique to handle the cognitive systems with large state space. From the experimental results in the application domain of academic science it has been verified that the proposed approach has better performance compared to its existing approaches.

It utilizes dynamic materialized views and an adaptive safe region to reduce communication costs and update loads. Caching is used to enhance performance. The notification engine processes concurrent queries using publish/subscribe to group similar queries. Experiments showed the framework outperformed R-Tree indexing.
A PSO-Based Subtractive Data Clustering AlgorithmIJORCS
There is a tremendous proliferation in the amount of information available on the largest shared information source, the World Wide Web. Fast and high-quality clustering algorithms play an important role in helping users to effectively navigate, summarize, and organize the information. Recent studies have shown that partitional clustering algorithms such as the k-means algorithm are the most popular algorithms for clustering large datasets. The major problem with partitional clustering algorithms is that they are sensitive to the selection of the initial partitions and are prone to premature converge to local optima. Subtractive clustering is a fast, one-pass algorithm for estimating the number of clusters and cluster centers for any given set of data. The cluster estimates can be used to initialize iterative optimization-based clustering methods and model identification methods. In this paper, we present a hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization, Subtractive + (PSO) clustering algorithm that performs fast clustering. For comparison purpose, we applied the Subtractive + (PSO) clustering algorithm, PSO, and the Subtractive clustering algorithms on three different datasets. The results illustrate that the Subtractive + (PSO) clustering algorithm can generate the most compact clustering results as compared to other algorithms.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

are padded in place of detailed coefficients [10].
