In this study, we discuss distributed spatial filtering (DSF) on networked systems to obtain signal values with a desired frequency characteristic from those assigned nodes by algorithm. We present two-hop consensus-type algorithm for DSF based an existing one-hop prove that the range of filter characteristics presented can achieve is broader than deriving necessary and sufficient condition ach...

the operation of a distribution system in the presence of distributed generation systems has someadvantages and challenges. optimal sizing and siting of dg systems has economic, technical, andenvironmental benefits in distribution systems. improper selection of dg systems can reduce theseadvantages or even result in deterioration in the normal operation of the distribution system. dgallocation ...

flexible ac transmission systems (facts) controllers with its ability to directly control the power flow can offer great opportunities in modern power system, allowing better and safer operation of transmission network. in this paper, in order to find type, size and location of facts devices in a power system a dedicated improved particle swarm optimization (dipso) algorithm is developed for de...

this paper proposes an efficient algorithm based on memetic algorithm (ma) for a redundancy allocation problem without component mixing (rapcm) in a series-parallel system when the redundancy strategy can be chosen for individual subsystems. majority of the solution methods for the general rapcm assume that the type of a redundancy strategy for each subsystem is pre-determined and known a prior...

Traffic classification plays an important role in many aspects of network management such as identifying type of the transferred data, detection of malware applications, applying policies to restrict network accesses and so on. Basic methods in this field were using some obvious traffic features like port number and protocol type to classify the traffic type. However, recent changes in applicat...

In this paper, a new method for gray-scale image and color zooming algorithm based on their local information is offered. In the proposed method, the unknown values of the new pixels on the image are computed by Moving Least Square (MLS) approximation based on both the quadratic spline and Gaussian-type weight functions. The numerical results showed that this method is more preferable to biline...

This paper presents the statistical inference on the parameters of the Burr type III distribution, when the data are Type-II hybrid censored. The maximum likelihood estimators are developed for the unknown parameters using the EM algorithm method. We provided the observed Fisher information matrix using the missing information principle which is useful for constructing the asymptotic confidence...
