This paper presents an efficient method to obtain the optimal power flow (OPF) problem under constrained emission dispatch by applying reactive tabu search (RTS) algorithm. The RTS is developed as a derivative-free optimization technique in solving constrained emission OPF problem significantly reduces the computational burden with the strategies that make the search process robust and fast. The effectiveness of the proposed approach has been demonstrated through the IEEE 30-bus, 6-generator, test system. The simulation results reveal that the proposed RTS can yield highly optimal solution and tan reduce computational execution time superior to a standard tabu search. Moreover, the proposed method provides better solution than previous literatures with promising results.

To achieve the required performance of complex electronic systems it is necessary to validate the system function during all phases of the design, which means multilevel validation. A hybrid Online Monitor for hard real time systems (HRTS) has been developed. A special attention was dedicated on the multilevel validation in all phases of the design.

In this paper, a cluster-based framework is introduced for comparing analysis methods of functional magnetic resonance images (fMRI). In the proposed framework, fMRI data is replaced with a feature space and each method considered as a clustering method in the new space. As a result, different methods can be compared by means of a cluster validity measure. The feature space is computed using a non-parametric method (principal component analysis-PCA). Four subjects have been analyzed with three methods and the proposed cluster-based framework has evaluated performance of the methods. The results are identical to those of the modified receiver operating characteristics (ROC). This validates the proposed approach.

Automatic segmentation of brain tissues is crucial to many medical imaging applications. We use a multi-resolution analysis and a power transform to extend the well-known Gaussian mixture model expectation maximization based algorithm for segmentation of white matter, gray matter, and cerebrospinal fluid from T1-weighted magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the brain. Experimental results with near 4000 synthetic and real images are included. The results illustrate that the proposed method outperforms six existing methods.

Magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) is a non-invasive technique for assessing biochemical fingerprint of tissue composition. The need to differentiate between normal and abnormal tissues and determine type of abnormality before biopsy or surgery motivated development and application of MRSI. There are several technical reasons that make the brain easier than other organs to be examined with MRSI. This work presents our proposed methods and results for the analysis of the brain spectra of patients with three tumor types (malignant glioma, astrocytoma, and oligodendroglioma). After extracting features from MRSI data using wavelet and wavelet packets, we use artificial neural networks to determine the abnormal spectra and the type of abnormality. We evaluated the proposed methods using clinical and simulated MRSI data and biopsy results. The MRSI analysis results were correct 97% of the time when classifying the spectra of the clinical MRSI data into normal tissue, tumor, and radiation necrosis. They were correct 72% and 83% of the time when determining tumor types using the clinical and simulated MRSI data, respectively.

This paper considers the stability of the fractional-order linear time-invariant systems with interval type uncertainties in both fractional orders and the relevant coefficients. It is an extension of our previous result on the robust stability analysis of the interval type uncertain fractional order LTI systems with crisply known fractional orders. We have proposed a stability check procedure for uncertain LTI systems with interval fractional orders and interval coefficients. The procedure is demonstrated with some simple examples

The challenge of human factor influence for analyzing the reliability and safety of car transportation is discussed. An analysis of the density and the kind of use among the drivers in different regions and seasons of the year is made. The possibilities to detect the driver falling into a relaxant, somnolent or micro-sleep stage by the use of suitable combination of secondary factors are investigated. The operation of the driver in the moving car is an example of very complicated interaction between several very heterogeneous systems.
