In this paper the problem of detection of impulsive disturbances in archive audio signals is considered. It is shown that semi-causal/noncausal solutions based on joint evaluation of signal prediction errors and leave-one-out signal interpolation errors, allow one to noticeably improve detection results compared to the prediction-only based solutions. The proposed approaches are evaluated on a set of clean audio signals contaminated with real click waveforms extracted from silent parts of old gramophone recordings.

Today, the cyber-space landscape is filled with vulnerabilities and malicious users that exploit them. Adding to this the technological context, with data flooding from all directions, it is evident that maintaining a good level of security for our systems has become a challenge. The high-dimensional datasets generated by all these diverse technologies needs to be processed efficiently. Inside the pool of data records gathered from all the monitored devices, there is also noise that could negatively influence intrusion detection. Feature selection methods(FSM) may offer a plausible solution to this multi-dimensionality problem, because they reduce the number of features and keep only those significant for solving the stated problem. In this paper we propose to conduct a comparative study of feature selection methods for intrusion detection. We focus on wrapper variants of FSM which are based on swarm intelligence algorithms. To conduct our study, we construct our FSM models based on four SI algorithms (PSO, BA, BAL and BAE) in combination with traditional classifiers (SVM, C4.5 and Naive Bayes) and use the NSL-KDD dataset for our test and comparative analysis.

Decision makers in countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and even those from non-OECD countries are prioritizing the evaluation of e-portal services. At present, governments are implementing programs to demonstrate the advantages of utilizing information and communication technologies in government administration. Using technology could result in internal efficiency and effectiveness of government actions. Evaluating the performance of the information system can reveal weak and strong points, which could be used in improving the system. For many years, scholars have pushed for assessing user satisfaction as a construct for evaluating such systems. Measuring the performance of the e-Government, which is the core of strategies employed by most Arab countries, could lead to the realization and application of the expected benefits of the system. Nonetheless, despite the popular use of e-Government services and applications worldwide, the assessment of electronic services in Iraq has been neglected in practical and theoretical aspects. Moreover, the new portal in Iraq, which is called "citizen e-Government," has decreased the number of citizens conducting business via electronic transactions. The portal design is complex and not user friendly. To respond to this need, this study assesses "Citizen E-Government Portal," which is a new portal in the Communications Directorate in Thi-Qar, according to employee perspective. The study used five constructs, namely, attractiveness, controllability, helpfulness, efficiency, and learnability, in the evaluation. Our findings revealed several weak points in the proposed e-portal, such as slow speed and unavailability of information needed by users. Hence, introductory explanations are needed to improve the proposed portal to increase user rate.

The paper deals with the PI and PID controllers settings. The research includes an overview of the most commonly used control quality criteria. It was assumed that the controlled system can be approximated by first order inertia with dead time. The control systems that includes the model as well as the PI and PID controllers were analyzed in context of control quality taking into account ITAE criterion. The research involved an analysis of the Nyquist diagrams. It enabled us to formulate a new method of tuning of PI and PID controllers. The results obtained with the proposed method were compared to the settings obtained with Ziegler-Nichols method. To illustrate the advantages of the proposed method the system step responses as well as their time and frequency indexes were compared and presented. The proposed method of the PI and PID controller tuning makes it possible to obtain a significant increase of the control quality.

In this work the authors of the hereof paper describe pilot study on implementation of fractional order filtering applied for the purpose of disparities detection in Beta Frequencies. The Beta waves frequency range can be split into three sections, where the information provided by particular section enables more accurate medical diagnosis. Spectral analysis used in this study allowed appropriate isolation of the Beta waves. Implementation of non-integer order filtering in such study is innovative and provided some promising results.

The paper deals with an analysis of features of on-off controllers. It was assumed that the control quality can be described by three distinctive indexes: the period, the amplitude and the mean value of the controlled signal in the steady state. The on-off controller with positive hysteresis was a basic form of the controller that was analyzed. To eliminate the disadvantages of this basic form the controller structure was augmented by inertia corrector. Its impact on mentioned above indicators was shown and described. To compensate the negative influence of inertia corrector on the mean value of the controlled signal, an additional proportional corrector was proposed. Its influence on control quality was shown and discussed. To show how easy it is to build the proposed structure of the controller, its exemplary implementation in the ladder logic language of the S7-1200 PLC was described.
