Bionanocomposites in Green Synthesis of Bioplastics - The Composite Materials of Future & Their Role in Circular Bio-Economy
Abstract: The pervasive use of petroleum-derived plastics has caused severe environmental pollution, accumulating in landfills and oceans while threatening human and animal health. This ecological crisis has accelerated an urgent transition toward biodegradable polymers within the circular bioeconomy. Bionanocomposites, comprising a biodegradable polymer matrix integrated with nanoscale fillers, successfully bridge the gap between high industrial performance and environmental responsibility. By incorporating advanced nanofillers such as cellulose nanocrystals, chitin nanofibers, layered silicates …

A Novel Strategy for Weight Initialization in Sigmoidal Feed-forward Artificial Neural Networks
Abstract: In this paper, a novel method of weight initialization is proposed. The proposed method of weight initialization distributes the initial weights and thresholds in such a manner that they lie in different regions of the activation function used at the hidden layer. The proposed method is compared with six other popular weight initialization methods on ten function approximation problems using the RPROP (Resilient Back-propagation) and Levenberg-Marquardt algorithms for training. Two …

A Robust Face Recognition Model based on Convolutional Neural Networks
Abstract: From the past several years, face recognition is one of the challenging issues in computer vision, due to three main technical problems in it. 1) Expression problem: in which same person shows more than one expression. 2) Illumination problem: in which face images of the person are strongly corrupted by lightning and 3) poses problem: in which large portion of the face becomes invisible due to occlusion. To this end …

TCP Performance Analysis by Loss Differentiation Algorithm over Lossy Wireless Links
Abstract: TCP continues to be an important transport-layer communication protocol that is typically tuned to perform well in traditional wired networks, where bit error rate is low and congestion is the primary cause of packet loss. Wireless networks are prone to High BER, which is responsible for large number of packet losses. TCP incorrectly interprets these losses as signs of network congestion and throttles its transmission rate unnecessarily, which degrades end-to-end …
