Experimental validation of nine-level switched-capacitor inverter topology with high voltage gain
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2021 , Article)This paper proposes a new switched-capacitor nine-level (9L) inverter with reduced switch count. In the proposed topology, floating capacitor (FC) is employed as a voltage booster, and it does not need any additional sensors ... -
Explainable deep learning model for automatic mulberry leaf disease classification
( Frontiers Media SA , 2023 , Article)Mulberry leaves feed Bombyx mori silkworms to generate silk thread. Diseases that affect mulberry leaves have reduced crop and silk yields in sericulture, which produces 90% of the world’s raw silk. Manual leaf disease ... -
Exploiting heterogeneity in operational neural networks by synaptic plasticity
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2021 , Article)The recently proposed network model, Operational Neural Networks (ONNs), can generalize the conventional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) that are homogenous only with a linear neuron model. As a heterogenous network ... -
Exploiting Sparsity in Amplify-and-Forward Broadband Multiple Relay Selection
( IEEE , 2019 , Article)Cooperative communication has attracted significant attention in the last decade due to its ability to increase the spatial diversity order with only single-antenna nodes. However, most of the techniques in the literature ... -
Exploiting sparsity of relay-assisted cognitive radio networks
( IEEE , 2015 , Conference Paper)We propose a novel protocol for secondary users based on compressive sensing principles. The secondary user assigned to one of the primary frequency bands is aided by a set of nearby secondary users, which we refer to as ... -
Exploiting spectrum sensing data for key management
( Elsevier B.V. , 2017 , Article)In cognitive radio networks, secondary users (SUs) communicate on unused spectrum slots in the frequency bands assigned to primary users (PUs). Like any other wireless communication system, cognitive radio networks are ... -
Exploiting wideband spectrum occupancy heterogeneity for weighted compressive spectrum sensing
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)Compressive sampling has shown great potential for making wideband spectrum sensing possible at sub-Nyquist sampling rates. As a result, there have recently been research efforts that aimed to develop techniques that ... -
Exploring the effect of image enhancement techniques on COVID-19 detection using chest X-ray images
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Computer-aided diagnosis for the reliable and fast detection of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has become a necessity to prevent the spread of the virus during the pandemic to ease the burden on the healthcare system. Chest ... -
Exploring the origins of EEG motion artefacts during simultaneous fMRI acquisition: Implications for motion artefact correction
( Academic Press Inc. , 2018 , Article)Motion artefacts (MAs) are induced within EEG data collected simultaneously with fMRI when the subject's head rotates relative to the magnetic field. The effects of these artefacts have generally been ameliorated by removing ... -
Exposure assessment to WiFi access points by simulations and measurements
( IEEE , 2011 , Conference Paper)This paper discusses two different approaches to assess exposure to indoor WiFi access points at two different frequency bands: 2.4GHz and 5GHz. The first analyzes the electromagnetic propagation in almost empty environments ... -
Extended Kalman filter based sliding mode control of parallel-connected two five-phase PMSM drive system
( MDPI AG , 2018 , Article)This paper presents sliding mode control of sensor-less parallel-connected two five-phase permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) fed by a single five-leg inverter. For both machines, the rotor speeds and rotor ... -
Extended quantum cuts for unsupervised salient object extraction
( Springer New York LLC , 2017 , Article)In this manuscript, an unsupervised salient object extraction algorithm is proposed for RGB and RGB-Depth images. Saliency estimation is formulated as a foreground detection problem. To this end, Quantum-Cuts (QCUT), a ... -
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation simulation-based training: methods, drawbacks and a novel solution
