Short Term Electrical Load Forecasting Based on Weather Parameters under Multiple FIS of Processing

By Mst. Aklima Khatun Akhi Sarwar Jahan Md. Imdadul Islam

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2025.01.02, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2025

The electrical load forecasting plays a vital role on the economy of a country in context of fuel saving, working hours of employee and depreciation cost of equipment of power generating station.  In this paper, we use several machine learning techniques relevant to fuzzy system to forecast the demand of electrical load on short-term basis. Here, we consider temperature, humidity, wind speed, types of day such as working day or holiday, barometric pressure as the parameters, which govern the demand of electrical load. To cope with the variables and the power demand, the previous data of Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) and Bangladesh Space Research and Remote Sensing Organization (SPARRSO) were taken for training purpose and then data of current day was used as the test data. For each of the weather parameter several membership functions (MFs) were used as the fuzzy input and then Takagi-Sugeno, Mamdani rule, FCM + Mamdani and ANFIS were applied to acquire the output as the demand of load. The average percentage of error as the difference between forecasted demand and actual demand of test data was found 1.675% for Takagi-Sugeno, 1.91% for Mamdani (centroid), 2.56% for FCM + Mamdani and 3.62% for ANFIS, which were found superior to some previous research works.

Detection of Diabetes using Combined ML Algorithm

By Shifat Jahan Setu Fahima Tabassum Sarwar Jahan Md. Imdadul Islam

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijisa.2024.01.02, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2024

Recently data clustering algorithm under machine learning are used in ‘real-life data’ to segregate them based on the outcome of a phenomenon. In this paper, diabetes is detected from pathological data of 768 patients using four clustering algorithms: Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), K-means clustering, Fuzzy Inference system (FIS) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). Our main objective is to make binary classification on the data table in a sense that presence or absence of diabetes of a patient. We combined the four machine learning algorithms based on entropy-based probability to enhance accuracy of detection. Before applying combining scheme, we reduce the size of variables applying multiple linear regression (MLR) on the table then logistic regression is again applied on the resultant data to keep the outlier within a narrow range. Finally, entropy based combining scheme with some modification is applied on the four ML algorithms and we got the accuracy of detection about 94% from the combining technique.

The Performance Analysis of Digital Filters and ANN in De-noising of Speech and Biomedical Signal

By Humayra Ferdous Sarwar Jahan Fahima Tabassum Md. Imdadul Islam

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5815/ijigsp.2023.01.06, Pub. Date: 8 Feb. 2023

A huge number of algorithms are found in recent literature to de-noise a signal or enhancement of signal. In this paper we use: static filters, digital adaptive filters, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), backpropagation, Hopfield neural network (NN) and convolutional neural network (CNN) to de-noise both speech and biomedical signals. The relative performance of ten de-noising methods of the paper is measured using signal to noise ratio (SNR) in dB shown in tabular form. The objective of this paper is to select the best algorithm in de-noising of speech and biomedical signals separately. In this paper we experimentally found that, the backpropagation NN is the best for de-noising of biomedical signal and CNN is found as the best for de-noising of speech signal, where the processing time of CNN is found three times higher than that of backpropagation.
