Decoupled Model-Free Adaptive Control with Prediction Features Experimentally Applied to a Three-Tank System Following Time-Varying Trajectories by Soheil Salighe, Nehal Trivedi, Fateme Bakhshande, Dirk Söffker

“…In this paper, the performance of three model-free control approaches on a multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear system with constant and time-varying references is compared. The first control algorithm is model-free adaptive control (MFAC). The second is a modified version of MFAC (MMFAC) designed to handle delays in the system by incorporating the output error difference (over two sample time steps) in the control input. …”

Brain tumor detection through image fusion using whale optimization and edge preserving filter by Bhattiprolu Nagasirisha, Venkatesh Munagala, Ramakrishna Reddy Eamani, Mocherla Venkata Srikanth, Asileti Suneel Kumar, Varre Venkata Kanaka Durga Prasad

“…While the detail layers are fused based on maximum energy assessed using the Krisch compass operator, the base layers are fused based on the whale optimization method,  for which the objective function is maximization of entropy, edge strength and pixel intensity. Thirty different kinds of slices of five medical datasets from diverse sources were used to assess the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm both visually and statistically compared to existing approaches. …”
