Abstract

Road users make vital decisions to safely maneuver their vehicles based on the road markers, which need to be correctly classified. The road markers classification is significantly important especially for the autonomous car technology. The current problems of extensive processing time and relatively lower average accuracy when classifying up to five types of road markers are addressed in this paper. Two novel real time video processing methods are proposed by extracting two formulated features namely the contour number, , and angle, ???? to classify the road markers. Initially, the camera position is calibrated to obtain the best Field of View (FOV) for identifying a customized Region of Interest (ROI). An adaptive smoothing algorithm is performed on the ROI before the contours of the road markers and the corresponding two features are determined. It is observed that the achievable accuracy of the proposed methods at several non-urban road scenarios is approximately 96% and the processing time per frame is significantly reduced when the video resolution increases as compared to that of the existing approach.

Abstract

Fast Fourier Transform has long been established as an essential tool in signal processing. To address the computational issues while helping the analysis work for multi-dimensional signals in image processing, sparse Fast Fourier Transform model is reviewed here when applied in different applications such as lithography optimization, cancer detection, evolutionary arts and wasterwater treatment. As the demand for higher dimensional signals in various applications especially multimedia appplications, the need for sparse Fast Fourier Transform grows higher.

Abstract

The movement of the aircraft pitch is very important to ensure the passengers and crews are in intrinsically safe and the aircraft achieves its maximum stability.The objective of this study is to provide a solution to the control system that features particularly on the pitch angle motion of aircraft systemin order to have a comfort boarding. Three controllers were developed in these projects which wereproportional integral derivative (PID), fuzzy logic controller (FLC), and linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controllers. These controllers will help improving the pitch angle and achievingthe target reference. By improving the pitch motion angle, the flight will be stabilized and in steady cruise (no jerking effect), hence provides all the passengers withthe comfort zone. Simulation results have been done and analyzed using Matlab software. The simulation results demonstrated LQR and FLC were better than PID in the pitch motion system due to the small error performance. In addition, withstrong external disturbances, a single controller is unable to control the system, thus, the combination of PID and LQR managed to stabilize the aircraft.

Abstract

Road markers guide the driver while driving on the road to control the traffic for the safety of the road users. With the booming autonomous car technology, the road markers classification is important in its vision segment to navigate the autonomous car. A new method is proposed in this paper to classify five types of road markers namely dashed, single, double, solid-dashed and dashed-solid which are commonly found on the two lane single carriageway. The classification is using unique feature acquired from the binary image by scanning on each of the images to calculate the frequency of binary transition. Another feature which is the slopes between the two centroids which allow the proposed method, to perform the classification within the same video frame period. This proposed method has been observed to achieve an accuracy value of at least 93%, which is higher than the accuracy value achieved by the existing methods.

Abstract

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technology meets the increasing demand for high-seed cellular networks such as 5G by offering more users to be accommodated at once in accessing the cellular and wireless network. Moreover, the current demand of cellular networks for enhanced user fairness, greater spectrum efficiency and improved sum capacity further increase the need for NOMA improvement. However, the incurred interference in implementing NOMA user grouping constitutes one of the major barriers in achieving high throughput in NOMA systems. Therefore, this paper presents a computationally lower user grouping approach based on discrete particle swarm intelligence in finding the best user-pairing for 5G NOMA networks and beyond. A discrete particle swarm optimization (DPSO) algorithm is designed and proposed as a promising scheme in performing the user-grouping mechanism. The performance of this proposed approach is measured and demonstrated to have comparable result against the existing state-of-the art approach.

Abstract

The increasing computational complexity in scheduling the large number of users for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system and future cellular networks lead to the need for scheduling models with relatively lower computational complexity such as heuristic models. The main objective of this paper is to conduct a concise study on ant-colony optimization (ACO) methods and potential nature-inspired heuristic models for NOMA implementation in future high-speed networks. The issues, challenges and future work of ACO and other related heuristic models in NOMA are concisely reviewed. The throughput result of the proposed ACO method is observed to be close to the maximum theoretical value and stands 44% higher than that of the existing method. This result demonstrates the effectiveness of ACO implementation for NOMA user scheduling and grouping.

Abstract

Road vehicles are today’s primary form of transportation; the safety of children passengers must take precedence. Numerous reports of toddler death in road vehicles, include heatstroke and accidents caused by negligent parents. In this research, we report a system developed to monitor and detect a toddler's presence in a vehicle and to classify the toddler's seatbelt status. The objective of the toddler monitoring system is to monitor the child's conditions to ensure the toddler's safety. The device senses the toddler's seatbelt status and warns the driver if the child is left in the car after the vehicle is powered off. The vision-based monitoring system employs deep learning algorithms to recognize infants and seatbelts, in the interior vehicle environment. Due to its superior performance, the Nvidia Jetson Nano was selected as the computational unit. Deep learning algorithms such as faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN), single shot detector (SSD)- MobileNet, and single shot detector (SSD)-Inception was utilized and compared for detection and classification. From the results, the object detection algorithms using Jetson Nano achieved 80 FPS, with up to 82.98% accuracy, making it feasible for online and real-time in-vehicle monitoring with low power requirements
