To detect faults or errors for designing the quality software, software testing tool is used. Testing manually is an expensive and time taking process. To overcome this problem automated testing is used. Test case generation is a vital concept used in software testing which can be derived from requirements specification. Automation of test cases is a method where it can generate the test cases and test data automatically by using search based optimization technique. Model-driven testing is an approach that represents the behavioral model and also encodes the system behavior with certain conditions. Generally, the model consists of a set of objects that defined through variables and object relationships. This piece of work is used to generate the automated optimized test cases or test data with the possible test paths from combinational system graph. A hybrid bee colony algorithm is proposed in this paper for generating and optimizing the test cases from combinational UML diagrams.

In this paper, ARIMA(1,1,1) model and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models like Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP), Functional-link Artificial Neural Network (FLANN) and Legendre Polynomial Equation ( LPE) were used to predict the time series data. MLP, FLANN and LPE gave very accurate results for complex time series model. All the Artificial Neural Network model results matched closely with the ARIMA(1,1,1) model with minimum Absolute Average Percentage Error(AAPE). Comparing the different ANN models for time series analysis, it was found that FLANN gives better prediction results as compared to ARIMA model with less Absolute Average Percentage Error (AAPE) for the measured rainfall data.

A novel and different approach for detecting texture orientation by computer was presented in this research work. Many complex real time problem example detection of size and shape of cancer cell, classification of brain image signal, classification of broken bone structure, detection and classification of remote sensing images, identification of foreign particle in universe, detection of material failure in construction design, detection and classification of textures in particularly fabrications etc where edge detection and both vertical and horizontal line detection are essential. Thus researches need to develop different algorithm for this above complex problem. It is seen from literature that conventional algorithm DCT, FFT are all highly computational load and hence impossible task to implemented in hardware. These difficulties were solved in this particular research work by applying DWT and radon transform. It was seen from the simulation result that with very high computational load the entire algorithm takes very less CPU time and proved its robustness.

This work describes the neural network technique to solve location management problem. A multilayer neural model is designed to predict the future prediction of the subscriber based on the past predicted information of the subscriber. In this research work, a prediction based location management scheme is proposed for locating a mobile terminal in a communication without losing quality maintains a good response. There are various methods of location management schemes for prediction of the mobile user. Based on individual characteristic of the user, prediction based location management can be implemented. This work is purely analytical which need the past movement of the subscriber and compared with the simulated one. The movement of the mobile target is considered as regular and uniform. An artificial neural network model is used for mobility management to reduce the total cost. Single or multiple mobile targets can be predicted. Among all the neural techniques multilayer perceptron is used for this work. The records are collected from the past movement and are used to train the network for the future prediction. The analytical result of the prediction method is found to be satisfactory.

Spontaneous combustion of coals leading to mine fires is a major problem in Indian coal mines that creates serious safety and mining risk. A number of experimental techniques based on petrological, thermal and oxygen avidity studies have been used for assessing the spontaneous heating liability of coals all over the world. Crossing point temperature (CPT) is one of the most common methods in India to assess the fire risk of coal so that appropriate strategies and effective action plans could be made in advance to prevent occurrence and spread of fire and hence minimize coal loss. In this paper, the spontaneous heating risks of some of the Indian coals covering few major coalfields were assessed using CPT apparatus. Statistical analysis was carried out between CPT and the proximate analysis parameters and it was found that the Mixture Surface Regression (MSR) model was more effective and gave very good residual values as compared to the polynomial and simple multiple regression models. The performance of Anderson-Darling testing was done between the prediction results of MSR model and measured value of CPT showed that the residual follows normal distribution hence justifies the suitability of model for the prediction of spontaneous heating liability of coal.

In robotic applications and research, inverse kinematics is one of the most important problems in terms of robot kinematics and control. Consequently, finding the solution of Inverse Kinematics in now days is considered as one of the most important problems in robot kinematics and control. As the intricacy of robot manipulator increases, obtaining the mathematical, statistical solutions of inverse kinematics are difficult and computationally expensive. For that reason, now soft-computing based highly intelligent based model applications should be adopted to getting appropriate solution for inverse kinematics. In this paper, a novel application of artificial neural network is used for controlling a robotic manipulator. The proposed methods are based on the establishments of the non-linear mapping between Cartesian and joint coordinates using multi layer perceptron and functional link artificial neural network.
