The crucial challenge in wireless sensor networks is the very high dependence of the sensor nodes on limited battery power to exchange information wirelessly as well as the non-rechargeable battery of the wireless sensor nodes, which makes the management and monitoring of these nodes in terms of abnormal changes very difficult. These anomalies appear under faults, including hardware, software, anomalies, and attacks by raiders, all of which affect the comprehensiveness of the data collected by wireless sensor networks. Hence, a crucial contraption should be taken to detect the early faults in the network, despite the limitations of the sensor nodes. Machine learning methods include solutions that can be used to detect the sensor node faults in the network. The purpose of this study is to use several classification methods to compute the fault detection accuracy with different densities under two scenarios in regions of interest such as MB-FLEACH, one-class support vector machine (SVM), fuzzy one-class, or a combination of SVM and FCS-MBFLEACH methods. It should be noted that in the study so far, no super cluster head (SCH) selection has been performed to detect node faults in the network. The simulation outcomes demonstrate that the FCS-MBFLEACH method has the best performance in terms of the accuracy of fault detection, false-positive rate (FPR), average remaining energy, and network lifetime compared to other classification methods.}, subject = {Vernetzung}, language = {en} } @article{NabipourMosaviBaghbanetal., author = {Nabipour, Narjes and Mosavi, Amir and Baghban, Alireza and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Felde, Imre}, title = {Extreme Learning Machine-Based Model for Solubility Estimation of Hydrocarbon Gases in Electrolyte Solutions}, series = {Processes}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Processes}, number = {Volume 8, Issue 1, 92}, publisher = {MDPI}, doi = {10.3390/pr8010092}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200113-40624}, pages = {12}, abstract = {Calculating hydrocarbon components solubility of natural gases is known as one of the important issues for operational works in petroleum and chemical engineering.

Comparing the ELM outputs with a comprehensive real databank which has 1175 solubility points yielded R-squared values of 0.985 and 0.987 for training and testing phases respectively. Furthermore, the visual comparison of estimated and actual hydrocarbon solubility led to confirm the ability of proposed solubility model.

As a result of transportation processes, the concentration of pollutants changes along the river. Various studies have been conducted to provide simple equations for estimating LDC. In this study, machine learning methods, namely support vector regression, Gaussian process regression, M5 model tree (M5P) and random forest, and multiple linear regression were examined in predicting the LDC in natural streams. Data sets from 60 rivers around the world with different hydraulic and geometric features were gathered to develop models for LDC estimation. Statistical criteria, including correlation coefficient (CC), root mean squared error (RMSE) and mean absolute error (MAE), were used to scrutinize the models. The LDC values estimated by these models were compared with the corresponding results of common empirical models. The Taylor chart was used to evaluate the models and the results showed that among the machine learning models, M5P had superior performance, with CC of 0.823, RMSE of 454.9 and MAE of 380.9. The model of Sahay and Dutta, with CC of 0.795, RMSE of 460.7 and MAE of 306.1, gave more precise results than the other empirical models. The main advantage of M5P models is their ability to provide practical formulae. In conclusion, the results proved that the developed M5P model with simple formulations was superior to other machine learning models and empirical models; therefore, it can be used as a proper tool for estimating the LDC in rivers.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @article{AmirinasabShamshirbandChronopoulosetal., author = {Amirinasab, Mehdi and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Chronopoulos, Anthony Theodore and Mosavi, Amir and Nabipour, Narjes}, title = {Energy-Efficient Method for Wireless Sensor Networks Low-Power Radio Operation in Internet of Things}, series = {electronics}, volume = {2020}, journal = {electronics}, number = {volume 9, issue 2, 320}, publisher = {MDPI}, doi = {10.3390/electronics9020320}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200213-40954}, pages = {20}, abstract = {The radio operation in wireless sensor networks (WSN) in Internet of Things (IoT)applications is the most common source for power consumption.

It can lead to false WakeUp or idle listening in radio duty cycles and ContikiMAC. ContikiMAC is a low-power radio duty-cycle protocol in Contiki OS used in WakeUp mode, as a clear channel assessment (CCA) for checking radio status periodically. This paper presents a detailed analysis of radio WakeUp time factors of ContikiMAC. Furthermore, we propose a lightweight CCA (LW-CCA) as an extension to ContikiMAC to reduce the Radio Duty-Cycles in false WakeUps and idle listening though using dynamic received signal strength indicator (RSSI) status check time.

Earthquake safety assessment and building hazard monitoring can highly contribute to urban sustainability through identification and insight into optimum materials and structures. While the vulnerability of structures mainly depends on the structural resistance, the safety assessment of buildings can be highly challenging. In this paper, we consider the Rapid Visual Screening (RVS) method, which is a qualitative procedure for estimating structural scores for buildings suitable for medium- to high-seismic cases. This paper presents an overview of the common RVS methods, i.e., FEMA P-154, IITK-GGSDMA, and EMPI. To examine the accuracy and validation, a practical comparison is performed between their assessment and observed damage of reinforced concrete buildings from a street survey in the Bing{\"o}l region, Turkey, after the 1 May 2003 earthquake. The results demonstrate that the application of RVS methods for preliminary damage estimation is a vital tool. Furthermore, the comparative analysis showed that FEMA P-154 creates an assessment that overestimates damage states and is not economically viable, while EMPI and IITK-GGSDMA provide more accurate and practical estimation, respectively.}, subject = {Maschinelles Lernen}, language = {en} } @article{HassannatajJoloudariHassannatajJoloudariSaadatfaretal., author = {Hassannataj Joloudari, Javad and Hassannataj Joloudari, Edris and Saadatfar, Hamid and GhasemiGol, Mohammad and Razavi, Seyyed Mohammad and Mosavi, Amir and Nabipour, Narjes and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Nadai, Laszlo}, title = {Coronary Artery Disease Diagnosis: Ranking the Significant Features Using a Random Trees Model}, series = {International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, IJERPH}, volume = {2020}, journal = {International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, IJERPH}, number = {Volume 17, Issue 3, 731}, publisher = {MDPI}, doi = {10.3390/ijerph17030731}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200213-40819}, pages = {24}, abstract = {Heart disease is one of the most common diseases in middle-aged citizens.

Having examined the effect of buildings on energy consumption, these studies indicate that the physical form of a city has a notable impact on the amount of energy consumed in its spaces. The present study identified the variables that affected energy consumption in residential buildings and analyzed their effects on energy consumption in four neighborhoods in Tehran: Apadana, Bimeh, Ekbatan-phase I, and Ekbatan-phase II. After extracting the variables, their effects are estimated with statistical methods, and the results are compared with the land surface temperature (LST) remote sensing data derived from Landsat 8 satellite images taken in the winter of 2019. The results showed that physical variables, such as the size of buildings, population density, vegetation cover, texture concentration, and surface color, have the greatest impacts on energy usage. For the Apadana neighborhood, the factors with the most potent effect on energy consumption were found to be the size of buildings and the population density. However, for other neighborhoods, in addition to these two factors, a third factor was also recognized to have a significant effect on energy consumption. This third factor for the Bimeh, Ekbatan-I, and Ekbatan-II neighborhoods was the type of buildings, texture concentration, and orientation of buildings, respectively.}, subject = {Fernerkung}, language = {en} } @article{MosaviShamshirbandEsmaeilbeikietal., author = {Mosavi, Amir and Shamshirband, Shahaboddin and Esmaeilbeiki, Fatemeh and Zarehaghi, Davoud and Neyshabouri, Mohammadreza and Samadianfard, Saeed and Ghorbani, Mohammad Ali and Nabipour, Narjes and Chau, Kwok-Wing}, title = {Comparative analysis of hybrid models of firefly optimization algorithm with support vector machines and multilayer perceptron for predicting soil temperature at different depths}, series = {Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics}, volume = {2020}, journal = {Engineering Applications of Computational Fluid Mechanics}, number = {Volume 14, Issue 1}, doi = {10.1080/19942060.2020.1788644}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20200911-42347}, pages = {939 -- 953}, abstract = {This research aims to model soil temperature (ST) using machine learning models of multilayer perceptron (MLP) algorithm and support vector machine (SVM) in hybrid form with the Firefly optimization algorithm, i.e. MLP-FFA and SVM-FFA.
