Pages: 54 - 59
The central aim of this paper is demonstrating the capability of Artificial Neural Network implementations in recognizing extended sets of visual language symbols. The applications of this technique range from document digitizing and protection to handwritten text recognition in handheld devices. The classic difficulty of being able to correctly recognize even typed visual language symbols is the complex irregularity among pictorial representations of the same character due to variations in fonts, styles and size. This indiscretion undoubtedly widens when one deals with handwritten characters. Hence the conventional programming methods of mapping symbol images into matrices, analyzing pixel and/or vector data and trying to decide which symbol corresponds to which quality would give up little or no realistic results. Clearly the needed method will be one that can detect ‘proximity’ of graphic representations to known symbols and make decisions based on this proximity. To implement such proximity algorithms in the conventional programming one needs to write endless code, one for each type of possible irregularity or deviation from the assumed output either in terms of pixel or vector parameters, clearly not a realistic fare. One such network with supervised education rule is the Multi-Layer Perception (MLP) model. It uses the universal Delta Learning Rule for adjusting its weights and can be trained for a set of input/desired output values in a number of iterations. The very nature of this particular model is that it will force the production to one of nearby values if a variation of input is fed to the network that it is not trained for, thus solving the proximity issue. Both concepts will be discussed in the introduction part of this report.

Artificial Intelligence Network Load Comparison in Ant Colony Optimization

Pages: 60 - 64
Ants first evolved around 120 million years ago, take form in over 11,400 different species and are considered one of the most successful insects due to their highly organized colonies, sometimes consisting of millions of ants. One particular notability of ants is their ability to create "ant streets", long bi-directional lanes of single file pathways in which they navigate landscapes in order to reach a purpose in optimal time. These ever-changing networks are made possible by the use of pheromones which guide them using a shortest path mechanism. This practice allows an adaptive routing system which is updated should a more optimal path be found or an obstruction placed across an existing pathway. Computer scientists began researching the behavior of ants in the early 1990's to discover new routing algorithms. The result of these studies is Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and in the case of well implemented ACO techniques, optimal performance is comparative to existing top-performing routing algorithms. This article details how ACO can be used to vigorously route traffic efficiently. An efficient routing algorithm will minimize the number of nodes that a call will need to connect to in order to be completed thus; minimizing network load and growing reliability. An implementation of ANT Net based on Marco Dorigo has been designed and through this a number of visually aided test were produced to compare the genetic algorithm to a non-generic algorithm. The report will final conclude with a synopsis of how the algorithm perform and how it could be further optimized.

Pages: 65 - 69
Bubbling fluidized beds are commonly used for small to medium scale capacities. Gasification being order of magnitude slower than combustion process, handling it in fluidized bed gasifier pose many challenges as it may lead to loss of efficiency, unburnt carbon and so on. Hence study of fluidized bed gasifier is important from aspects like gas-solid hydrodynamics, reaction kinetics and inter-phase mass transfer that control the overall performance of the gasifier unit. In this paper, the objective of the study is to develop method for predicting the performance of the bubbling fluidized bed gasifier. This will critically evaluate the various correlations/methods available in literature which enables the research/ process designer to predict the performance of bubbling fluidized bed gasifier. The overall methodology will be to perform cold flow experiments with appropriate representative particles and generate the related information. Numerical model will be developed for bubbling fluidized bed gasifier and its validation will be performed based on experimental data.

Heat Power And Thermal
Year: 2017, Volume:4, Issue : 4
Pages: 70 - 72
This paper describes the various developments and performance of coating for absorber tube. Initially, an analysis of the environmental problems related to the use of conventional sources of energy is presented and the benefits offered by renewable energy systems are outlined. Coatings are mainly used in concentrating solar systems to improve the performances of both reflectors and absorbers in terms of costs, efficiency, durability and maintenance. There are different type of coating are used for different operating conditions, material combination and applications. The main aim of these review is to look at the stability of some of the main coating that are used or currently under investigation to identify the reason of variations and scope of performance.

Pages: 83 - 85
75% of the world's vitality is expended in urban areas. 40% of the world's vitality is expended in structures. The most intriguing potential for CO2-lessening in urban areas from a prudent perspective lays in the modernization of the building's foundation. Making existing and new structures to Green Buildings is a standout amongst the best levers to address the difficulties of CO2 decrease in urban areas. The target of the introduction is to give a short review of the edge conditions, the current names and – most vital – demonstrate examples of overcoming adversity.

Pages: 86 - 90
The radiator fan is a device, which sucks the atmospheric air through the radiator panels and expels it to atmosphere to cool the engine coolant after discharge from the engine and maintains an acceptable operating temperature by transferring heat from the engine to the atmospheric air. The cooling fan are part of the cooling system and their design to keep a cooler temperature in the engine. A composite material is a material consisting of two or more physically or chemically distinct phases. The composite generally has superior characteristics than those of each of the individual components. There is an increasing demand for advanced materials with better properties to meet new requirements or to replace existing material.
