An Empirical Evaluation of Error Correction Methods and Tools for Next Generation Sequencing Data

Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies produce massive amount of low cost data that is very much useful in genomic study and research. However, data produced by NGS is affected by different errors such as substitutions, deletions or insertion. It is essential to differentiate between true biological variants and alterations occurred due to errors for accurate downstream analysis. Many types of methods and tools have been developed for NGS error correction. Some of these methods only correct substitutions errors whereas others correct multi types of data errors. In this article, a comprehensive evaluation of three types of methods (k-spectrum based, Multi- sequencing alignment and Hybrid based) is presented which are implemented and adopted by different tools. Experiments have been conducted to compare the performance based on runtime and error correction rate. Two different computing platforms have been used for the experiments to evaluate effectiveness of runtime and error correction rate. The mission and aim of this comparative evaluation is to provide recommendations for selection of suitable tools to cope with the specific needs of users and practitioners. It has been noticed that k-mer spectrum based methodology generated superior results as compared to other methods. Amongst all the tools being utilized, Racer has shown eminent performance in terms of error correction rate and execution time for both small as well as large data sets. In multisequence alignment based tools, Karect depicts excellent error correction rate whereas Coral shows better execution time for all data sets. In hybrid based tools, Jabba shows better error correction rate and execution time as compared to brownie. Computing platforms mostly affect execution time but have no general effect on error correction rate.

Video Shot Boundary Detection using the Scale Invariant Feature Transform and RGB Color Channels

<p>Segmentation of the video sequence by detecting shot changes is essential for video analysis, indexing and retrieval. In this context, a shot boundary detection algorithm is proposed in this paper based on the scale invariant feature transform (SIFT). The first step of our method consists on a top down search scheme to detect the locations of transitions by comparing the ratio of matched features extracted via SIFT for every RGB channel of video frames. The overview step provides the locations of boundaries. Secondly, a moving average calculation is performed to determine the type of transition. The proposed method can be used for detecting gradual transitions and abrupt changes without requiring any training of the video content in advance. Experiments have been conducted on a multi type video database and show that this algorithm achieves well performances.</p>

An Optimal Tradeoff between Security and Reliability in systems of Cognitive Radio

Objectives: To propose relay selection plans for a CR network. A network of Cognitive Radio (CR) is considered. It comprises of one Secondary Transmitter (ST), a set of multiple Secondary Relays (SRs) and one Secondary Destination (SD) and an eavesdropper is also present. Here the ST is transmitting to SD assisted by SRs, while eavesdropper attempts interception of secondary transmission. Methods: Care is exercised in selecting relay to protect ST-SD transmission. Protection is against eavesdropper both single-relay as well as multi-relay aid that. In particular, possibly best SR gets chosen in a singlerelay type selection to assist transmission of secondary type. Multi-relay selections invoke multiple SRs for simultaneous forwarding of transmission of ST to SD. Findings: Both probabilities of intercept as well as outage are analyzed for the put forth single-relay as well as relay of multi type selecting methods meant for transmission of secondary type. This relies upon the realistic kind of sensing of spectrum. Evaluation of performance is done on the classic type transmission of direct kind and also the approaches of artificial noise based for comparing them with proposed schemes of relay selection. Improvements/Applications: It shows that relaxing intercept probability requirement improves performance of outage related to transmission of direct type, schemes for selection of relay and also-based on noise of artificial type-scheme and vice versa. This leads to the implication that a trade-off is done between reliability and security of secondary transmission when eavesdropping attacks are present. This implication is popularly coined as security to reliability - a trade-off (SRT). Also it is demonstrated that SRTs schemes of single-relay as well as multi-relay selection are normally better compared to classic direct transmission. It explicitly demonstrates the salient features of selection of relay scheme in question. This is related to offering protection to transmissions of secondary type from attacks of eavesdropping. Apart from this there is an increase in SRs’ count, obviously SRTs about relay of single type in question now as well as relay of multi type selection method improve substantially.

Adaptive differential search algorithm for optimal location of distributed generation in the presence of SVC for power loss reduction in distribution system

Optimal location and sizing of multi type of distribution generations in a distribution system is of great importance for experts and industries to achieve the desired technical-economic objectives. This paper aims to develop a new planning strategy for modern power distribution system using a flexible variant based differential search (DS) algorithm named adaptive DS. The proposed algorithm investigated for solving the optimal location and sizing of multi distributed generation (DG). The total power losses have been optimized considering the cost component of DG for real power, and the cost of energy losses. The robustness of the proposed planning strategy was validated on a two practical test system, 33-Bus and 69 Bus at normal situation and considering specific loading margin stability. The results show the importance of installing the suitable size of DG at the suitable location in the presence of SVC compensators.

Chloride diffusion in concrete associated with single, dual and multi cation types

Currently, most of the investigations on chloride diffusion were based on the experiments and simulations concerning single cation type chlorides. Chloride diffusion associated with dual or multi cation types was rarely studied. In this paper, several groups of diffusion experiments are conducted using chloride solutions containing single, dual and multi cation types. A multi-ionic model is also proposed to simulate the chloride diffusion behavior in the experimental tests. The MATLAB software is used to numerically solve the nonlinear PDEs in the multi-ionic model. The experimental and simulated results show that the chloride diffusion behavior associated with different cation types is significantly different. When the single cation type chlorides are adopted, it is found that the bound rates of chloride ions combined with divalent cations are greater than those combined with monovalent cations. When the dual/multi cation type chlorides are adopted, the chloride bound rates increase with the percentage in the source solutions. This evidence indicates that the divalent cations would markedly enhance the chloride binding capacity and reduce the chloride diffusivity. Moreover, on the basis of the analysis, it is also found that the complicated cation types in source solutions are beneficial to reducing the chloride diffusivity.

Multi-denoising based impulse noise removal from images using robust statistical features and genetic programming

Recently, several interesting computational intelligence based image denoising techniques have been reported for the removal of either salt & pepper or uniform impulse noise. However, to the best of our knowledge, the difficult challenge of developing a multi denoising method that can remove mixed-impulse noise, uniform impulse, salt & pepper, and impulse-burst noise, has not been reported so far. In this regard, we propose a new noise removal approach called INDE-GP for the removal of multi types of impulse noises. The proposed approach consists of two stages: noise detection stage and removal stage. At first, the impulse noise is localized by a single stage GP detector that exploits various information-rich, rank-ordered and robust statistical features for detection. Next the noise is removed only from the detected noisy pixels by single stage GP estimator. This estimator is developed by exploiting the global learning capability of GP and local statistical measures of noise-free pixels present in the neighborhood of noisy pixels. The experimental results and comparative analysis with existing denoising techniques show that multi denoising performance of the proposed INDE-GP approach is better both quantitative and qualitative ways.

Performance prediction of machine repair problem with spares and two modes of failure

This investigation is concerned with the transient analysis of machine repair problem with M operating units and multi types of warm spares. In case when all spares are being used, the failure of units occurs in degraded fashion. Each unit is assumed to fail in two modes. When all permanent repairmen are busy, the caretaker who brings the failed units for repair departs from the system after waiting for sometime in the queue due to impatience. For transient state, Chapman–Kolmogorov equations governing the model are constructed. Various performance measures such as expected number of failed units in each mode, average number of operating units in the system, average number of idle and busy repairmen in the system, operative utilisation factor, etc., are obtained. The cost minimisation problem to determine the optimum number of spares in terms of various cost elements has been formulated. We used Runge–Kutta technique to find the numerical solution for the transient model. The sensitivity analysis is performed to observe the effect of different parameters on various performance indices.

Performance comparison of evolutionary programming and differential evolution approaches for social welfare maximization by placement of multi type FACTS devices in pool electricity market

In restructuring power markets, the money matters of demand and supply governs the prices at each bus with rigid constraints imposed in transmission line. The market operators can misuse the “market power” and make additional profit. It eventually hinders the growth of restructured power market and minimizes the social welfare. Hence Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices are considered one such technology that helps in improving the social welfare. In this paper, the new methodology for proper placement of FACTS devices in the restructured electricity market is proposed. An efficient and reliable evolutionary programming (EP) and differential evolution (DE) techniques based economic dispatch for pool electricity market is used to improve the social welfare. These techniques are developed for both the cases with and without FACTS devices and the results are compared. Utilization of these FACTS devices helps in “maximizing the benefit” and “minimizing the cost” and also helps in reducing the total number of overloads, excess power flow and severity of overloading. The standard data of sample 5 bus, three generators and two customers system has been taken into account and simulated with aid of MAT-lab software and comparative results are obtained.
