Fault analysis in the 5-level multilevel NCA DCAC converter
The existing neutral clamped active inverter has common mode voltage with the high frequency which can reduce the severity with less voltage gain. The traditional active neutral point clamped (APC) DCAC converter maintains great common mode voltage with high-frequency (CMV-HF) reduction capability so, it has limited voltage gain. The paper presents a new 5-level active neutral point clamped DCAC converter that can change voltage step-up in a single-stage inversion. In the suggested design, a common ground not only reduces the CMV-HF but also improves DC link voltage use. Compared with the traditional two-stage 5-level APC DCAC converter, the proposed design has lower voltage stresses and greater uniformity. While improving the overall efficiency, the suggested clamped DCAC converter saves three power switches and a capacitor. Modelling and actual tests have proven the suggested active neutral point clamped inverters overall operation, efficacy and achievability. The proposed circuit is finally tested with fault clearance capability. 2023 The Author(s). Published by Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group. -
Fault diagnosis in a five-level multilevel inverter using an artificial neural network approach
Introduction. Cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverters (CHB-MLI) are becoming increasingly used in applications such as distribution systems, electrical traction systems, high voltage direct conversion systems, and many others. Despite the fact that multilevel inverters contain a large number of control switches, detecting a malfunction takes a significant amount of time. In the fault switch configurations diode included for freewheeling operation during open-fault condition. During short circuit fault conditions are carried out by the fuse, which can reveal the freewheeling current direction. The fault category can be identified independently and also failure of power switches harmed by the functioning and reliability of CHB-MLI. This paper investigates the effects and performance of open and short switching faults of multilevel inverters. Output voltage characteristics of 5 level MLI are frequently determined from distinctive switch faults with modulation index value of 0.85 is used during simulation analysis. In the simulation experiment for the modulation index value of 0.85, one second open and short circuit faults are created for the place of faulty switch. Fault is identified automatically by means of artificial neural network (ANN) technique using sinusoidal pulse width modulation based on distorted total harmonic distortion (THD) and managed by its own. The novelty of the proposed work consists of a fast Fourier transform (FFT) and ANN to identify faulty switch. Purpose. The proposed architecture is to identify faulty switch during open and short failures, which has to be reduced THD and make the system in reliable operation. Methods. The proposed topology is to be design and evaluate using MATLAB/Simulink platform. Results. Using the FFT and ANN approaches, the normal and faulty conditions of the MLI are explored, and the faulty switch is detected based on voltage changing patterns in the output. Practical value. The proposed topology has been very supportive for implementing non-conventional energy sources based multilevel inverter, which is connected to large demand in grid.

Faulty Node Detection Using Vertex Magic Total Labelling in Distributed System
Distributed system consists of huge number of nodes that are connected to a network, which is mainly intended and predominantly used for information sharing. Large users are prone to share data through the network and the stability and reliability of the nodes are remaining as the major concern in this system. Therefore, the inconsistent message transmission causes the nodes in the network to act differently, which would not be acceptable. A rapid method of malfunctioning nodes detection can improve the QoS of distributed computing environment. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed based on the calculation of vertex magic total labelling (VMTL) value for each and every node in the network. Upon receiving the message from the sender node, the receiver node will quickly detect the faulty node by comparing the VMTL pivot value (Pv). Experimental results show that the proposed approach leads to high true fault rate (TFR) detection accuracy compared to the false fault rate (FFR) detection. Finally, all the information related to the faulty nodes will be sent to the server node for further investigation and action.

FDI in Developing Nations: Unveiling Trends, Determinants and Best Practices for India
In the recent UNCTAD World Investment Report 2023, China has the highest FDI inflows among the developing countries, following Brazil, India, Mexico, and Indonesia. These five developing countries attracted more FDI inflows in the year 2022. However, among these five countries, China and the other four countries have a lot of differences in FDI inflows. So, this study investigates the factors helping China get more FDI inflows by analyzing the trends and determinants of FDI inflows. The study also compares all the selected countries to suggest the best practices India can adopt to enhance its FDI attractiveness. So, the study considered economic indicators like GDP, infrastructure, trade openness, and natural resources. Further, panel data analysis was used to investigate the determinants influencing FDI inflows, utilizing the Panel Autoregressive Distributed Lag (P-ARDL) model for the data from 1990 to 2022. The findings showed that trade openness, market size, and quality of infrastructure explain the attraction of FDI inflows in selected countries in the long run. Thus, it is important to implement policies that encourage international collaboration by raising trade, lowering corporate expenses, and making infrastructural investments. India's availability of a large consumer market, developed infrastructure, and government initiatives like 'Make in India,' and "Skill India"have pulled major FDI inflows. India should prioritize manufacturing, IT, and healthcare while improving infrastructure and streamlining regulations. 2024 IEEE. -

Feature extraction and classification techniques of modi script character recognition
Machine simulation of human reading has caught the attention of computer science researchers since the introduction of digital computers. Character recognition is the process of recognizing either printed or handwritten text from document images and converting it into machine-readable form. Character recognition is successfully implemented for various foreign language scripts like English, Chinese and Latin. In the case of Indian language scripts, the character recognition process is comparatively difficult due to the complex nature of scripts. MODI script-an ancient Indian script, is the shorthand form for the Devanagari script in which Marathi was written. Though at present, the script is not used officially, it has historical importance. MODI character recognition is a very complex task due to its variations in the writing style of individuals, shape similarity of characters and the absence of word stopping symbol in documents. The advances in various machine learning techniques have greatly contributed to the success of various character recognition processes. The proposed work provides an overview of various feature extraction and classification techniques used in the recognition of MODI script till date and also provides evaluation and comparison of these techniques. 2019, Universiti Putra Malaysia Press.

Feature extraction and diagnosis of dementia using magnetic resonance imaging
Dementia is a state of mind in which the sufferer tends to forget important data like memories, language, etc.. This is caused due to the brain cells that are damaged. The damaged brain cells and the intensity of the damage can be detected by using Magnetic Resonance Imaging. In this process, two extraction techniques, Gray Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM) and the Gray Level Run-Length matrix (GLRM), are used for the clear extraction of data from the image of the brain. Then the data obtained from the extraction techniques are further analyzed using four machine learning classifiers named Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Random Forest (RF), and the combination of two classifiers (SVM+KNN). The results are further analyzed using a confusion matrix to find accuracy, precision, TPR/FPR - True and False Positive Rate, and TNR/FNR - True and False Negative Rate. The maximum accuracy of 93.53% is obtained using the GLRM Feature Extraction (FE) technique with the combination of the SVM and KNN algorithm. 2023, Bentham Books imprint. All rights reserved. -

Feature selection based on the classifier models: Performance issues in the prediagnosis of lung cancer
Dimensionality reduction is generally carried out to reduce the complexity of the computations in the large data set environment by removing redundant or de-pendent attributes. For the Lung cancer disease prediction, in the pre-diagnosis stage, symptoms and risk factors are the main information carriers. Large number of symptoms and risk attributes poses major challenge in the computation. Here in this study an attempt is made to compare the performance of the attribute selection models prior and after applying the classifier models. A total of 16 classifier models are preferred based on relevancy of the models with respect to the data types chosen, which are based on statistical, rule based, logic based and artificial neural network approaches. Feature set selection and ranking of attributes are done based on individual models. Based on the confusion matrix parameters the models prediction outcomes are found out in the supervisory training mode. The Confusion matrix of the models before and after dimensionality reduction is computed. Models are compared based on weighted Reader Operator Characteristics. Normalized weights are assigned based for the result of individual models and predictive model is developed. Predictive models performance is studied with target under supervised classifier model and it is observed that it is tallying with the expected outcome. 2005 - 2014 JATIT & LLS.

Feature selection/dimensionality reduction
In today's world, medical image analysis is a critical component of research, and it has been extensively explored over the last few decades. Machine learning in healthcare is a fantastic advancement that will improve disease detection efficiency and accuracy. In many circumstances, it will also allow for early detection and treatment in remote or developing areas. The amount of medical data created by various applications is growing all the time, creating a bottleneck for analysis and necessitating the use of a machine learning method for feature selection and dimensionality reduction techniques. Feature selection is an important concept of machine learning since it affects the model's performance and the data parameters you utilize to train your machine learning models to have a big influence on the performance. The approach of minimizing the number of inputs in training data by reducing the dimension of your feature set is known as dimensionality reduction. Reduced dimensionality aids in the overall performance of the machine learning algorithms. 2023 River Publishers. -
Feature Subset Selection Techniques with Machine Learning
Scientists and analysts of machine learning and data mining have a problem when it comes to high-dimensional data processing. Variable selection is an excellent method to address this issue. It removes unnecessary and repetitive data, reduces computation time, improves learning accuracy, and makes the learning strategy or data easier to comprehend. This chapterdescribes various commonly used variable selection evaluation metrics before surveying supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised variable selection techniques that tend to be often employed in machine learningtasks including classification and clustering. Finally, ensuing variable selection difficulties are addressed. Variant selection is an essential topic in machine learning and pattern recognition, and numerous methods have been suggested. This chapter scrutinizesthe performance of various variable selection techniques utilizing public domain datasets. We assessed the quantity of decreased variants and the increase in learning assessment with the selected variable selection techniques and then evaluated and compared each approach based on these measures. The evaluation criteria for the filter model are critical. Meanwhile, the embedded model selects variations during the learning model's training process, and the variable selection result is automatically outputted when the training process is concluded. While the sum of squares of residuals in regression coefficients is less than a constant, Lasso minimizes the sum of squares of residuals, resulting in rigorous regression coefficients. The variables are then trimmed using the AIC and BIC criteria, resulting in a dimension reduction. Lasso-dependent variable selection strategies, such as the Lasso in the regression model and others, provide a high level of stability. Lasso techniques are prone to high computing costs or overfitting difficulties when dealing with high-dimensional data. 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. -
Features of Vitamin Model Affecting Psychological Empowerment: Serial Mediation Role of Job Crafting and Work Engagement
The current research aimed to investigate the association between the variables under the study, that is, the vitamin model features of a job: job crafting, work engagement, and psychological empowerment. It also attempted to analyze the serial mediational role of the two causally linked mediators, that is, job crafting and work engagement with the job features of the vitamin model and psychological empowerment. By investigating these variables, we tried to explore how the employees redesigned the well-defined jobs to match their capabilities, which enhanced commitment to work and led to positive behavioral outcomes, such as empowerment, work meaningfulness, and improved performance. Primary data were collected from 453 knowledge workers in the information technology (IT) and information technology-enabled services (ITES) industry. Using SPSS software, the correlation method revealed significant positive correlations between the variables under study. PROCESS macro (Haynes, 2012) was applied in SPSS AMOS regression-based path coefficients and bootstrap confidence intervals at a 95% confidence level. As the bootstrap confidence intervals did not include zero, a significant mediational role of the serial mediators was observed between the relationship of features in the vitamin model and psychological empowerment [Estimate =.0761, 95% CI (.0257,.1902)]. So, it could be concluded that job crafting made the employees the mechanic of their vehicle (work), leading to work engagement, increased performance, and psychological well-being at the workplace. 2022, Associated Management Consultants Pvt.
