Global demographic trends and future carbon emissions o neill et al_pnas_2010...Adnan Ahmed
This document summarizes a study that analyzed the implications of future demographic trends on global carbon emissions through 2100. Using an energy-economic model called PET, the study found that:
1) Slowing population growth could provide 16-29% of the emissions reductions suggested to avoid dangerous climate change by 2050.
2) Aging populations can substantially reduce emissions in some regions by up to 20% due to lower labor participation rates, while urbanization can increase emissions over 25% from higher productivity.
3) At a global level, the effects of changes in population composition like aging and urbanization are offsetting, but urbanization is a dominant driver of increased emissions in developing countries like China and India.
This paper proposes a fuzzy logic-based individual crop advisory system that provides crop-specific advisories to farmers based on weather input data. The system utilizes expert agricultural knowledge and weather data to generate automatic advisories tailored to a farmer's specific crop type, location, and growth stage. It was developed using PHP for the front-end and MATLAB for the GUI. The system was tested on both realistic and randomly generated weather data, and the success rates for providing accurate advisories with both data types were calculated. The system aims to provide more specific advisories to farmers compared to existing region-based advisory services.

Fuzzy Logic Approach to Identify Deprivation Index in Peninsular MalaysiajournalBEEI
Deprivation indices are similar to inequalities index or index of disadvantageous. It was built to measure the basic necessities in a specific study area or region. There were many indices that have been constructed in the previous study. However, since these indices had depended mostly on two factors; socio-economic conditions and geography of the study area, thus different result would be generated in different areas. The objective of this study is to construct the new index based on above factors in Peninsular Malaysia by using a fuzzy logic approach. This study employed twelve variables from different facilities condition that was obtained from Malaysia 2000’s census report. These variables were considered as input parameters in the fuzzy logic system. Data turned into linguistic variables and shaped into rules in the form of IF-ELSE conditions. After that, the centroid of area method is applied to acquire the final deprivation index for a specific district in Peninsular Malaysia. The result showed that less developed states generated lower index for examples Kelantan and Kedah while more developed states generated a higher index for examples Selangor and W.P. Kuala Lumpur.

Rule Optimization of Fuzzy Inference System Sugeno using Evolution Strategy f...IJECEIAES
The need for accurate load forecasts will increase in the future because of the dramatic changes occurring in the electricity consumption. Sugeno fuzzy inference system (FIS) can be used for short-term load forecasting. However, challenges in the electrical load forecasting are the data used the data trend. Therefore, it is difficult to develop appropriate fuzzy rules for Sugeno FIS. This paper proposes Evolution Strategy method to determine appropriate rules for Sugeno FIS that have minimum forecasting error. Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is used to evaluate the goodness of the forecasting result. The numerical experiments show the effectiveness of the proposed optimized Sugeno FIS for several test-case problems. The optimized Sugeno FIS produce lower RMSE comparable to those achieved by other wellknown method in the literature.

Design and implementation of a fuzzy based tsunami warning systemeSAT Publishing House
This document describes the design and implementation of a fuzzy-based tsunami warning system. It begins with an introduction to tsunamis and their causes. A fuzzy logic system is then developed using Mamdani's fuzzy inference method in MATLAB. Four parameters are used as inputs - earthquake magnitude, volcanic eruption index, landslide, and deep ocean wave height. Membership functions are defined for the inputs and single output, "alert type." Fuzzy rules are generated based on historical tsunami data. The system outputs one of three linguistic alert levels: rare tsunami, advisory tsunami, or warning. The fuzzy logic approach allows the system to model the vagueness of tsunami prediction based on multiple contributing factors.
Design and implementation of a fuzzy based tsunami warning systemeSAT Journals
Abstract A tsunami can be referred to series of water waves initiated by the dislocation of a large quantity of water, usually in ocean or a large lake. Tsunamis obliterate not only human population but all other species. There are many factors that have potential to cause a tsunami like Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including explosions of underwater nuclear devices), landslides, meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water. With the preface of modern science and computer technology, the field of Artificial Intelligence is screening a definite efficacy in all continuum of life. There are certain ways to predict such disasters and design different kinds of early warning systems. These can be predicted on the basis of climatic conditions and several other parameters. One such concept that is working as a boom in the fields of environmental science and policy is fuzzy logic. As fuzzy logic can be widely stated as working with the vague, imprecise data and the linguistic terms. So, this methodology can be successfully applied in the field of tsunami warning as the influence of different parameters that cause tsunami is different and can be said as vague. In this work, a fuzzy system has been developed to declare the occurrence of tsunami in terms of linguistic parameters rare_tsunami, advisory_tsunami and warning by taking the tsunami characteristics earthquake magnitude, volcanic eruption index, landslide and height of waves in deep ocean. Fuzzy rule base is generated and the results are compared with an IEEE research paper. Keywords: tsunami, tsunami warning system, design of tsunami warning system, Fuzzy logic, tsunami early warning system

Supervised Multi Attribute Gene Manipulation For Cancerpaperpublications3
Abstract: Data mining, the extraction of hidden predictive information from large databases, is a powerful new technology with great potential to help companies focus on the most important information in their data warehouses. Data mining tools predict future trends and behaviours, allowing businesses to make proactive, knowledge-driven decisions. The automated, prospective analyses offered by data mining move beyond the analyses of past events provided by retrospective tools typical of decision support systems.
They scour databases for hidden patterns, finding predictive information that experts may miss because it lies outside their expectations. Data mining techniques are the result of a long process of research and product development. This evolution began when business data was first stored on computers, continued with improvements in data access, and more recently, generated technologies that allow users to navigate through their data in real time. Data mining takes this evolutionary process beyond retrospective data access and navigation to prospective and proactive information delivery.
The world today has been witnessing phenomenal outgrowth in all fields during the past few decades. This augmentation has been largely stimulated by information and communication technologies (ICT). However, the inexorable evolution of technology and global economic development are being pursued at an ever-increasing societal cost with a snowballing potentially negative impact on the environment. Hence, one of the important challenges modern society faces is sustainability. This article attempts to explore the existing body of knowledge to provide a better understanding of the impact of ICT and digital revolutions on global carbon footprint and emissions. It also attempts to explore the presence of environmental sustainability initiatives in e-government programs worldwide. It presents some thoughts about how governments may address sustainability requirements in their e-government programs and enact responsible ICT-enabled transformation.
The definition and extraction of actionable anomalous discords, i.e. pattern outliers, is a challenging
problem in data analysis. It raises the crucial issue of identifying criteria that would render a discord
more insightful than another one. In this paper, we propose an approach to address this by
introducing the concept of prominent discord. The core idea behind this new concept is to identify
dependencies among discords of varying lengths. How can we identify a discord that would be
prominent? We propose an ordering relation, that ranks discords, and we seek a set of prominent
discords with respect to this ordering. Our contributions are threefold 1) a formal definition,
ordering relation and methods to derive prominent discords based on Matrix Profile techniques,2)
their evaluation over large contextual climate data, covering 110 years of monthly data, and 3) a
comparison of an exact method based on STOMP and an approximate approach that is based on
SCRIMP++ to compute the prominent discords and study the tradeoff optimality/CPU. The
approach is generic and its pertinence shown over historical climate data.

This document summarizes a research paper that proposes a new approach to detect prominent discords, or anomalous patterns, in large climate data time series. The approach introduces the concept of a prominent discord, which is the most significant discord found across different window sizes that all start at the same position. It presents methods to compute prominent discords exactly using STOMP or approximately using SCRIMP++. The approach is applied to over 100 years of monthly climate impact runoff data to detect insightful discords. It compares the exact and approximate methods and explores the tradeoff between accuracy and computational efficiency.

Drought is possibly the most complex and least understood of natural hazards. The effects of drought accumulate slowly and linger for years. It is estimated that 380 million people, 38% of the world’s rural poor, live in the arid and semi-arid tropics (SAT). Of those who are vulnerable to drought, more than 90% are either smallholder farmers or landless laborers. The Committee on Science and Technology for the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, in its fifth session last year, issued a note on strategies for communicating relevant information on combating the effects of drought.
Big Data Framework for Predictive Risk Assessment of Weather Impacts on Elect...Power System Operation
Loss of electric power leads to major economic, social, and environmental impacts. It is estimated that the Annual economic impacts from weather-related electric grid outages in the U.S. result in as high as $150 billion. Due to the high level of environmental exposure of the electric utility overhead infrastructure, the most dominant cause of electricity outages is weather impact. More than 70% of electric power outages are caused by weather, either directly (e.g., lightning strikes to the equipment, trees coming in contact with lines under high wind speeds), or indirectly due to weather-caused increases in equipment deterioration rates or overloading (e.g. insulation deterioration, line overloading due to high temperature causing high demand). This paper illustrates how the impact of severe weather can be significantly reduced, and in some cases even eliminated, by accurate prediction of where faults may occur and what equipment may be vulnerable. With this predicted assessment of network vulnerabilities and expected exposure, adequate mitigation approaches can be deployed.
To solve the problem, variety of approaches have been deployed but none seem to be addressing the problem comprehensively. We are introducing a predictive approach that uses Big Data analytics based on machine learning using variety of utility measurements and data not coming from utility infrastructure, such as weather, lightning, vegetation, and geographical data, which also comes in great volumes, is necessary. The goal of this paper is to provide a comprehensive description of the use of Big Data to assess weather impacts on utility assets. In the study reported in this paper a unified data framework that enables collection and spatiotemporal correlation of variety of data sets is developed. Different prediction algorithms based on linear and logistic regression are used. The spatial and temporal dependencies between components and events in the smart grid are leveraged for the high accuracy of the prediction algorithms, and its capability to deal with missing and bad data. The study approach is tested on following applications related to weather impacts on electric networks: 1) Outage prediction in Transmission, 2) Transmission Line Insulation Coordination, 3) Distribution Vegetation Management, 4) Distribution Transformer Outage Prediction, and 5) Solar Generation Forecast. The algorithms shows high accuracy of prediction for all applications of interest.

STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence

There are many factors that have potential to cause a tsunami like Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (including explosions of underwater nuclear devices), landslides, meteorite impacts and other disturbances above or below water. With the preface of modern science and computer technology, the field of Artificial Intelligence is screening a definite efficacy in all continuum of life. There are certain ways to predict such disasters and design different kinds of early warning systems. These can be predicted on the basis of climatic conditions and several other parameters. One such concept that is working as a boom in the fields of environmental science and policy is fuzzy logic. As fuzzy logic can be widely stated as working with the vague, imprecise data and the linguistic terms. So, this methodology can be successfully applied in the field of tsunami warning as the influence of different parameters that cause tsunami is different and can be said as vague. In this work, a fuzzy system has been developed to declare the occurrence of tsunami in terms of linguistic parameters rare_tsunami, advisory_tsunami and warning by taking the tsunami characteristics earthquake magnitude, volcanic eruption index, landslide and height of waves in deep ocean. Fuzzy rule base is generated and the results are compared with an IEEE research paper. Keywords: tsunami, tsunami warning system, design of tsunami warning system, Fuzzy logic, tsunami early warning system

Supervised Multi Attribute Gene Manipulation For Cancerpaperpublications3
Abstract: Data mining, the extraction of hidden predictive information from large databases, is a powerful new technology with great potential to help companies focus on the most important information in their data warehouses. Data mining tools predict future trends and behaviours, allowing businesses to make proactive, knowledge-driven decisions. The automated, prospective analyses offered by data mining move beyond the analyses of past events provided by retrospective tools typical of decision support systems.
They scour databases for hidden patterns, finding predictive information that experts may miss because it lies outside their expectations. Data mining techniques are the result of a long process of research and product development. This evolution began when business data was first stored on computers, continued with improvements in data access, and more recently, generated technologies that allow users to navigate through their data in real time. Data mining takes this evolutionary process beyond retrospective data access and navigation to prospective and proactive information delivery.
The world today has been witnessing phenomenal outgrowth in all fields during the past few decades. This augmentation has been largely stimulated by information and communication technologies (ICT). However, the inexorable evolution of technology and global economic development are being pursued at an ever-increasing societal cost with a snowballing potentially negative impact on the environment. Hence, one of the important challenges modern society faces is sustainability. This article attempts to explore the existing body of knowledge to provide a better understanding of the impact of ICT and digital revolutions on global carbon footprint and emissions. It also attempts to explore the presence of environmental sustainability initiatives in e-government programs worldwide. It presents some thoughts about how governments may address sustainability requirements in their e-government programs and enact responsible ICT-enabled transformation.
The definition and extraction of actionable anomalous discords, i.e. pattern outliers, is a challenging
problem in data analysis. It raises the crucial issue of identifying criteria that would render a discord
more insightful than another one. In this paper, we propose an approach to address this by
introducing the concept of prominent discord. The core idea behind this new concept is to identify
dependencies among discords of varying lengths. How can we identify a discord that would be
prominent? We propose an ordering relation, that ranks discords, and we seek a set of prominent
discords with respect to this ordering. Our contributions are threefold 1) a formal definition,
ordering relation and methods to derive prominent discords based on Matrix Profile techniques,2)
their evaluation over large contextual climate data, covering 110 years of monthly data, and 3) a
comparison of an exact method based on STOMP and an approximate approach that is based on
SCRIMP++ to compute the prominent discords and study the tradeoff optimality/CPU. The
approach is generic and its pertinence shown over historical climate data.

Drought is possibly the most complex and least understood of natural hazards. The effects of drought accumulate slowly and linger for years. It is estimated that 380 million people, 38% of the world’s rural poor, live in the arid and semi-arid tropics (SAT). Of those who are vulnerable to drought, more than 90% are either smallholder farmers or landless laborers. The Committee on Science and Technology for the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, in its fifth session last year, issued a note on strategies for communicating relevant information on combating the effects of drought.
Big Data Framework for Predictive Risk Assessment of Weather Impacts on Elect...Power System Operation
Loss of electric power leads to major economic, social, and environmental impacts. It is estimated that the Annual economic impacts from weather-related electric grid outages in the U.S. result in as high as $150 billion. Due to the high level of environmental exposure of the electric utility overhead infrastructure, the most dominant cause of electricity outages is weather impact. More than 70% of electric power outages are caused by weather, either directly (e.g., lightning strikes to the equipment, trees coming in contact with lines under high wind speeds), or indirectly due to weather-caused increases in equipment deterioration rates or overloading (e.g. insulation deterioration, line overloading due to high temperature causing high demand). This paper illustrates how the impact of severe weather can be significantly reduced, and in some cases even eliminated, by accurate prediction of where faults may occur and what equipment may be vulnerable. With this predicted assessment of network vulnerabilities and expected exposure, adequate mitigation approaches can be deployed.
To solve the problem, variety of approaches have been deployed but none seem to be addressing the problem comprehensively. We are introducing a predictive approach that uses Big Data analytics based on machine learning using variety of utility measurements and data not coming from utility infrastructure, such as weather, lightning, vegetation, and geographical data, which also comes in great volumes, is necessary. The goal of this paper is to provide a comprehensive description of the use of Big Data to assess weather impacts on utility assets. In the study reported in this paper a unified data framework that enables collection and spatiotemporal correlation of variety of data sets is developed. Different prediction algorithms based on linear and logistic regression are used. The spatial and temporal dependencies between components and events in the smart grid are leveraged for the high accuracy of the prediction algorithms, and its capability to deal with missing and bad data. The study approach is tested on following applications related to weather impacts on electric networks: 1) Outage prediction in Transmission, 2) Transmission Line Insulation Coordination, 3) Distribution Vegetation Management, 4) Distribution Transformer Outage Prediction, and 5) Solar Generation Forecast. The algorithms shows high accuracy of prediction for all applications of interest.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network

train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
