In this paper, the Incremental Conductance maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is evaluated using an experimental setup consisting of two 75W photovoltaic (PV) panels connected in series. Humusoft MF 634 board is used to obtain and produce signals. The model was tested under changing solar irradiance conditions, and the acquired results show that it is able to respond to these changes appropriately.

In this paper, two approaches are evaluated using the Full Error Detection and Correction (FEDC) method for a pipelined structure. The approaches are referred to as Full Duplication with Comparison...

Assessment of skeletal maturity is typical strategy applied in clinical pediatrics today. The main goal of a Bone Age Assessment (BAA) is to determine endocrinology and growth disorders by comparing the bone and chronological age of the patient. Several methods are developed to determine skeletal maturity, but Greulich-Pyle and Tanner-Whitehouse represent the two most common methods that involve left hand and wrist radiographs. However, these methods are extremely time-dependent and rely on an experienced radiologist, who further evaluates bone age using hand atlas as a reference. In this paper, VGG-16 and ResNet50 are two Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) models applied with ImageNet pre-trained weights in order to estimate correct bone age and achieve high accuracy of gender prediction using public RSNA dataset that includes 12611 radiographs. The experimental results show month discrepancy of approximately eight months and 82% accuracy during the process of gender classification.

The regulation of functions such as respiratory or heart rate in human body as well as the control of motor movements are under the control of nervous system. As these actions and correlated tasks are directly influenced by the brain, the brain monitoring gives the possibility to differentiate the tasks, enabling at the same time the prediction of further actions. In this contribution, publicly available electroencephalography (EEG) datasets are analyzed with respect to the detection of epileptic seizure occurrence and BCI-related actions (here: cued motor imagery). For these purposes, timefrequency- based feature extraction alongside different classification methods is used. To perform the classification, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are utilized and compared with previously obtained results. The feasibility of particular features for the detection of epileptic seizures and BCI-related tasks is discussed. Four different feature vectors per analyzed problem are identified. Acceptable accuracy of classification using ANN- and SVMbased classifiers is achieved using identified feature vectors.
