Waveform Analysis and Feature Extraction from Speech Data of Dysarthric Persons
Speech recognition systems provide a natural way of interacting with computers and serve as an alternative to the more popular but less intuitive peripherals (input / output devices). Tools employing the techniques of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) can be extended to serve people with speech disabilities so that they can overcome the difficulties faced in their interaction with general public. An attempt is made here to achieve this goal by mapping the distorted speech signals of people with severe levels of dysarthria to that of a normal speech and/or less severe dysarthric speech. The analysis is carried out by comparing the speech waveforms of the people with and without communication disorders and then extracting the features from the audio files. The differences in time, duration, frequency and PSD are used to facilitate the mapping of unintelligible speech data to intelligible ones. When reasonable accuracy levels are achieved in this mapping, the normal voice can be used as the substitute / surrogate of the original distorted voice. 2019 IEEE. -

Optimizing the efficiency of solar flat plate collector with trapezoidal reflector
Solar flat plate collectors are the most vital parts of a solar heating system. The collector plate absorbs the energy from the sun and transforms this radiation into heat and then transmit this heat into a fluid, it can either water or air. This research paper proposes a new technology to enhance the performance of the solar flat plate collector. A trapezoidal solar reflector is connected with the flat plate collector to enhance the amount of sunlight which hits the collector plate surface. The trapezoidal reflector concentrates both the direct and diffused radiation of the sun towards the flat plate collector. To maximize the concentration of incident radiation the trapezoidal reflector was permitted to change its inclination with the direction of sunlight. A prototype of a solar water heating system with trapezoidal reflector was constructed and achieved the improvement of collector plate efficiency by around 12%-13%. Thus the current solar heating system has the best thermal performance compared to the existing systems. 2019 Author(s). -

Despeckling of Ultra sound Images using spatial filters - A Fusion Approach
Ultra sound images are normally affected by speckle noise which is typically multiplicative in nature. This study proposes different fusion based despeckling methods for ultra sound images. The output of existing spatial domain despeckling methods viz. Lee filter, Bayesian Non Local Means (BNLM) filter and Frost filter are fused pairwise. Fusion is implemented in two steps, first an inter-scale stationary wavelet coefficient fusion followed by an intra-scale wavelet coefficient fusion. Analysis of these projected despeckling strategies are conducted using metrics like Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Equivalent Number of Looks (ENL), Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) and Universal Image Quality Index (UIQI). The results show that the performance of fusion based methods is better than the respective individual filters for despeckling ultra sound images. 2019 IEEE. -
Improved File Security System Using Multiple Image Steganography
Steganography is the process of hiding a secret message within an ordinary message extracting it at its destination. Image steganography is one of the most common and secure forms of steganography available today. Traditional steganography techniques use a single cover image to embed the secret data which has few security shortcomings. Therefore, batch steganography has been adopted which stores data on multiple images. In this paper, a novel approach is proposed for slicing the secret data and storing it on multiple cover images. In addition, retrieval of this secret data from the cover images on the destination side has also been discussed. The data slicing ensures secure transmission of the vital data making it merely impossible for the intruder to decrypt the data without the encrypting details. 2019 IEEE. -

In this paper, we characterize interval - valued fuzzy bridges and interval-valued fuzzy cutnodes in terms of ? strong arcs. We discuss about the behaviour of arcs in a strongest path of an interval - valued fuzzy graph. An example is provided to prove that strongest paths are not in general related to strong paths in an interval - valued fuzzy graph. Finally we give a particular condition under which strong paths and strongest paths are equivalent. 2019 Author(s). -

Securing Provenance Data with Secret Sharing Mechanism: Model Perspective
Elicitation about the genesis of an entity is referred to as provenance. With regards to data objects and their relationships the same is termed as data provenance. In majority of the instances, provenance data is sensitive and a small variation or adjustment leads to change in the entire chain of the data connected. This genesis needed to be secured and access is granted for authorized party. Individual control in preserving the privacy of data is common scenario and there are a good number of approaches with respect to cryptography. We propose a unique model, wherein the control of the data is available with multiple bodies however not with one; and when an access has to be granted for a genuine purpose, all the bodies holding their share will have to agree on a common platform. Combining these shares in a peculiar pattern allows the grant for accessing data. The method of allocating control to multiple bodies and allowing grant based on combining stakes is called as secret sharing mechanism. Division of the shares can be drawn from visual encryption approach. It provides transparencies for a given input message. This paper throws light on a framework associated to securing provenance via secret sharing security notion. 2019 IEEE. -

A Dual Step Strategy for Retinal Thin Vessel Enhancement/Extraction
Blood vessel extraction from retinal images is a challenging and fundamental step in pathological analysis. Most of the vessel extraction algorithms face difficulty in the extraction of thin vessels. In this paper, a dual step strategy for retinal thin vessel enhancement/extraction is proposed. Since thin vessel pixels have intensities closer to the background non-vessel pixels, the first level enhancement algorithms usually suffers in its accurate extraction. This led to explore a novel idea of eliminating the effects of thick vessel pixels in a reference image, via replacing it with neighboring non-vessel pixels. By applying second level enhancement on the vessel subtracted image, thin vessels are projected and improvement in extraction is attained subjectively as well as objectively. 2019 IEEE. -
