This paper proposes an algorithm and hardware realization of generalized chaotic systems using fractional calculus and rotation algorithms. Enhanced chaotic properties, flexibility, and controllability are achieved using fractional orders, a multi-scroll grid, a dynamic rotation angle(s) in two- and three-dimensional space, and translational parameters. The rotated system is successfully utilized as a Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) in an image encryption scheme. It preserves the chaotic dynamics and exhibits continuous chaotic behavior for all values of the rotation angle. The

Digital images, which we store and communicate everyday, may contain confidential information that must not be exposed to others. Numerous researches are interested in encryption, which protects the images from ending up in the hands of unauthorized third parties. This paper proposes an image encryption scheme using chaotic systems, DNA manipulation, and a modified Arnold transform. Both DNA manipulation and hyperchaotic Lorenz system are utilized in the substitution of the images’ pixel values. An additional role of hyperchaotic Lorenz system is that it generates the random numbers required

Over the years, The detection and tracking of Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) have become one of the most critical features of self-driving car components. Because of its processing efficiency and better detection algorithms, tracking-by-detection appears to be the best paradigm. In this paper, a detection-based tracking approach is presented for Multiple VRU Tracking of video from an inside-vehicle camera in real-time. YOLOv4 scans every frame to detect VRUs first, then Simple Online and Realtime Tracking with a Deep Association Metric (Deep SORT) algorithm, which is customized for multiple VRU

Static random-access memory (SRAM) is a cornerstone in modern microprocessors architecture, as it has high power consumption, large area, and high complexity. Also, the stability of the data in the SRAM against the noise and the performance under the radian exposure are main concern issues. To overcome these limitations in the quest for higher information density by memory element, the ternary logic system has been investigated, showing promising potential compared with the conventional binary base. Moreover, carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET) is a new alternative device with

This chapter merges the fractional calculus and two-port networks in oscillator design. The fractional-order elements α and β add extra degrees of freedom that increase the design flexibility and frequency band while providing control over the phase difference. A prototype of the fractional-order two-port network oscillators is introduced. It consists of a general two-port network and three impedances distributed as input, output, and a feedback impedance. Three different two-port network classifications are obtained according to the ground location. This chapter focuses on one of these

Fractional-order Modelling of Dynamic Systems with Applications in Optimization, Signal Processing and Control introduces applications from a design perspective, helping readers plan and design their own applications. The book includes the different techniques employed to design fractional-order systems/devices comprehensively and straightforwardly. Furthermore, mathematics is available in the literature on how to solve fractional-order calculus for system applications. This book introduces the mathematics that has been employed explicitly for fractional-order systems. It will prove an

K Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm is a straight-forward yet powerful Machine Learning (ML) tool widely used in classification, clustering, and regression applications. In this work, KNN is applied, with three distance metrics, to classify different datasets, experimentally testing each distance metric effect on the classification performance. A static K is applied for the whole dataset optimally chosen based on a 5-fold cross-validation. A reconfigurable hardware realization on field programmable gate array (FPGA) of each distance metric applying selection sort algorithm is proposed. The

Biometric security has been developed in recent years with the emergence of cancellable biometric concepts. The idea of the cancellable biometric traits is concerned with creating encrypted or distorted traits of the original ones to protect them from hacking techniques. So, encrypted or distorted biometric traits are stored in databases instead of the original ones. This can be accomplished through non-invertible transforms or encryption schemes. In this paper, a cancellable face recognition algorithm is introduced based on face image encryption through a fractional-order multi-scroll chaotic

The DC motor is one of the simplest electrical machines used in industry since it is controlled by direct voltages and currents. These configurations have various advantages, allowing the machine to be adapted to the constraints of its specific application. The present chapter analyzes the DC motor with separate excitation without the use of a speed sensor to approximate the rotor speed. An analysis of the stability of the rotor speed estimation is performed. Enhanced control of the direct action is integrated into the adaptive observer to decrease the roundness capability of the model and

Multi-Secret Image Sharing (MSIS) is important in information security when multiple images are shared in an unintelligible form to different participants, where the images can only be recovered using the shares from participants. This paper proposes a simple and efficient ( n,n )-MSIS system for colored images based on XOR and Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT), where all the n share are required in the recovery. The system improves the security by adding dependency on the input images to be robust against differential attacks, and by using several delay units. It works with even and odd number
