Abstract

Heterogeneous Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (H-MANET) contain different configuration nodes, each of which communicates over a wireless channel and is capable of movement. Heterogeneous wireless networking has attracted lot of interest from consumers in the previous few years for its applications in mobile and personal communications. One of the main constraints in MANET is the high probability of failure due to energy-exhausted nodes. So if the path selected for communication has low battery life then the path breaks prematurely and the re-discovery phase starts, which costs more overhead in the network. Therefore, there is unequal consumption of node energy, which must be prevented. The energy expenditure of the nodes should be balanced in order to minimize path breakage. This can be done by finding the communication path that is the most energy-efficient among alternative disjoint paths. This approach reduces path breakage and routing overhead caused by nodes with low battery life dying in the communication path, thus increasing the network's lifetime.

Abstract

This paper presents the development of a two-stage low noise amplifier (LNA) operating at the S-band frequency that is implemented using the non-simultaneous conjugate match (NSCM) technique. The motivation of this work was to solve the issue of the gain of LNAs designed using the most commonly used technique, i.e. simultaneous conjugate match (SCM), which often produce an increase of other parameter values, i.e. noise figure and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). Prior to hardware implementation, the circuit simulation software Advanced Design System (ADS) was applied to design the two-stage S-band LNA and to determine the desired trade-off between its parameters. The proposed two-stage S-band LNA was deployed on an Arlon DiClad527 using a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), type BFP420. Meanwhile, to achieve impedances that match the two-stage S-band LNA circuit, microstrip lines were employed at the input port, the interstage, and the output port. Experimental characterization showed that the realized two-stage S-band LNA produced a gain of 22.77 dB and a noise figure of 3.58 dB at a frequency of 3 GHz. These results were 6.1 dB lower than the simulated gain and 0.76 dB higher than the simulated noise figure respectively.

Abstract

Considering the increasing use of security and surveillance systems, moving object tracking systems are an interesting research topic in the field of computer vision. In general, a moving object tracking system consists of two integrated parts, namely the video tracking part that predicts the position of the target in the image plane, and the visual servo part that controls the movement of the camera following the movement of objects in the image plane. For tracking purposes, the camera is used as a visual sensor and applied to a 2-DOF (yaw-pitch) manipulator platform with an eye-in-hand camera configuration. Although its operation is relatively simple, the yaw-pitch camera platform still needs a good control method to improve its performance. In this study, we propose a moving object tracking system on a prototype yaw-pitch platform. A m-synthesis controller was used to control the movement of the visual servo part and keep the target in the center of the image plane. The experimental results showed relatively good results from the proposed system to work in real-time conditions with high tracking accuracy in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Abstract

Generating paraphrases is an important component of natural language processing and generation. There are sev­eral applications that use paraphrasing, for example linguistic steganography, recommender systems, machine translation, etc. One method for paraphrasing sentences is by using synonym substitution, such as the NGM-based paraphrasing method proposed by Gadag et al. The weakness of this method is that ambiguous meanings frequently occur because the paraphrasing process is based solely on n-gram. This negatively affects the naturalness of the paraphrased sentences. For overcoming this problem, a contextual synonym substitution method is proposed, which aims to increase the naturalness of the paraphrased sentences. Using the proposed method, the paraphrasing process is not only based on n-gram but also on the context of the sentence such that the naturalness is increased. Based on the experimental result, the sentences generated using the proposed method had higher naturalness than the sentences generated using the original method.

Abstract

Deep probabilistic programming concatenates the strengths of deep learning to the context of probabilistic modeling for efficient and flexible computation in practice. Being an evolving field, there exist only a few expressive programming languages for uncertainty management. This paper discusses an application for analysis of ultrasound nerve segmentation-based biomedical images. Our method uses the probabilistic programming language Edward with the U-Net model and generative adversarial networks under different optimizers. The segmentation process showed the least Dice loss ("‘0.54) and the highest accuracy (0.99) with the Adam optimizer in the U-Net model with the least time consumption compared to other optimizers. The smallest amount of generative network loss in the generative adversarial network model gained was 0.69 for the Adam optimizer. The Dice loss, accuracy, time consumption and output image quality in the results show the applicability of deep probabilistic programming in the long run. Thus, we further propose a neuroscience decision support system based on the proposed approach.

Abstract

The increasing use of smartphones and social media apps for communication results in a massive number of screenshot images. These images enrich the written language through text and emojis. In this regard, several studies in the image analysis field have considered text. However, they ignored the use of emojis. In this study, a robust two-stage algorithm for detecting emojis in screenshot images is proposed. The first stage localizes the regions of candidate emojis by using the proposed RGB-channel analysis method followed by a connected component method with a set of proposed rules. In the second verification stage, each of the emojis and non-emojis are classified by using proposed features with a decision tree classifier. Experiments were conducted to evaluate each stage independently and assess the performance of the proposed algorithm completely by using a self-collected dataset. The results showed that the proposed RGB-channel analysis method achieved better performance than the Niblack and Sauvola methods. Moreover, the proposed feature extraction method with decision tree classifier achieved more satisfactory performance than the LBP feature extraction method with all Bayesian network, perceptron neural network, and decision table rules. Overall, the proposed algorithm exhibited high efficiency in detecting emojis in screenshot images.
