Empirical Evaluation of Adaptive Optimization on the Generalization Performance of Convolutional Neural Networks
(2021-10)Recently, deep learning based techniques have garnered significant interest and popularity in a variety of fields of research due to their effectiveness in search for an optimal solution given a finite amount of data. ... -
Energy Management System for Solar And Grid System
(2021-11)Electricity is an important resource both in domestic and industrial environment. The rise in electricity demand has led to conventional resources being exhausted and possibly lead to rise in electricity prices. since ... -
Enhanced Speed Control of Separately Excited DC Motor Using Fuzzy-Neural Networks Controller
(IEEE, 2022-02)The dynamic behavior of a PID-type fuzzy logic control depends on the appropriate choice of its scaling factors. Fixed scaling factors cannot provide adequate control performance under a wide range of operating conditions. ... -
EVALUATING THE PUBLIC VALUE OF E-GOVERNMENT SERVICES: ACTOR NETWORK THEORY APPROACH
(2014)Government all over the world are working on a broad array of e-services, re-designing services as diverse as tax filing, applying and registering for social security, obtaining birth and marriage certificates, procurement ... -
Farmers Willingness to Pay and the Sustainability of Irrigated Maize Production in Rural Kenya
(2017-07)This paper evaluated farmers willingness to pay for irrigated maize production using field level data collected through a cross sectional survey. The results showed that 78% of the farmers were willing to pay more than the ... -
The Forgotten: An Information Ecosystem Assessment for People with Disabilities in South Sudan
(2023-03)Decades of conflict in South Sudan pre-and post-independence in 2011, poverty and poor access to services have increased the rate of disability and rendered People with Disabilities more marginalised and excluded because ... -
Harnessing our ICT Skill Set and Research Efforts for Sustainable Development
(2022-06)For some time now, ICTs have become ubiquitous, making them a common place phenomenon in modern society. Almost all electronics are ICT enabled to date, with most people who can read and write having interacted with ICTs ... -
The Impact of Prior Exposure to Engineering Through the MUT Pre-College Course - A Case Study of Kangema Sub-County Secondary Schools
(2021-11)In Kenya, secondary schools have a great role in preparing learners for career progression. In order to realize industrial growth, it is important to prepare more students for careers in STEM. There is relatively little ... -
Implementation of a Structural Complexity Metrics Tool for Sassy Cascading Style Sheets (SCMT-SCSS)
(2020)The development of metrics tool is a basic requirement for the defined software metrics to be acceptable in the software industry. There are several metrics proposed over the years without tool support and this trend cannot ... -
Investigating the Effect of an Ir Emitting Element to the time Constant of Solar Energy Harvesting Device Lifetime
(2021-03)Solar photovoltaic (PV) system is instrumental in provision of sustainable energy in the wake of social and environmental concerns. While research in solar cell efficiency has made great strides and achieved over 40%, key ... -
Investigating the Impact of Antenna Heights on Path Loss Models in an Indoor Corridor Environment
(2020-08)Mobile data traffic has rapidly increased in the last few years because of the continuous demand for higher data rates through a rapidly growing number of connected devices and the advancing technology of smartphones. ... -
Investigating the impact of power system stabilizers in a multi machine system with an induction motor load
(2010)The high reactive power demand by the induction motor load during fault condition due to reduced bus voltages may cause a generator to behave like a voltage source behind the synchronous reactance and its terminal voltage ... -
Investigation of static voltage stability using a modified load flow algorithm and counter propagative artificial neural networks
(2010)In conventional load flow studies, the active and reactive powers of all load buses are generally specified. Thus, by assuming a constant power load characteristic, the impact of the load in the system is over-emphasized ... -
Key Generation for Electrical Smart Meters using Hash Functions
(2019)The electrical power grid has been undergoing improvements to turn it into a more efficient system known as the Smart Grid. A key element in this upgrade is the Smart Meter. A compromise on the cyber-security of the smart ... -
Key performance indicators for manufacturing safety in paint manufacturing: A case of kenyan industry.
(2015)Manufacturing safety is a key priority in the success of any business, as it can affect both the present and future competitive position of an organization. Organizations must measure ... -
Land access and outmigration in densely populated areas of rural Kenya Land access and outmigration in densely populated areas of rural Kenya
(2021-02)One of the key drivers of youth migration of inequitable distribution of land which denies them access to work environment. Youths hold limited small land sizes even when they migrate and this limits there involvement in ...
