Human Movements Monitoring Using Smartphone Sensors

- Nowadays, smartphones are ubiquitous; they have some powerful features such as sensors, which have recently become a topic of great interest to researchers. Smartphone sensors collect data on the user’s activities and movements, which provides meaningful knowledge if captured and analysed in an accurate way. This paper will introduce a system based on a smartphone equipped with an accelerometer sensor to monitor users’ daily activities, such as walking, jogging, stair ascents, stair descents, sitting and standing. The system will attempt to identify the maximum level of movement (MLM), meaning the time spent continuously doing an activity. To avoid any suffering, the user is notified before he or she exceeds the MLM. This system would be useful for healthy humans, and particularly elderly people or patients with medical conditions related to physical activity.
Combined Approach for Teachers’ Evaluation Aspects Identification Using Dictionary and Patterns Based

Teacher performance evaluation is a common method and often used for evaluates teaching quality in higher education. With the rapid growth of opinion mining technique. Aspect-based opinion mining application has been possibly employed to extraction and summarization of students' comments for teacher evaluation. However, to automated teacher evaluation features identification from a large number of students' comments collection is very hard work. This study has the goal to address this problem. The main objectives of the proposed method are: (1) to identify teacher evaluation aspects, (2) to compare the efficiency of dictionary based, patterns based and the combination of them, and (3) to enhance the accuracy result in the teachers’ evaluation aspects identification from the unstructured text of students' feedbacks. The students' feedbacks were collected by questionnaires and the dataset was constructed manually with a total of 4,496 sentences from 300 undergraduate student responses in 10 subjects by purposive sampling and the collection of positive and negative sentences from 30 participants group interviewed in the workshop. Both approaches were applied to identify the frequency teachers' evaluation aspects. The experimental results found that our proposed approach provided reasonably more accurate results, the combination approach enhanced a significantly average of precision and recall. For future work, we focus on the application of new linguistic patterns and non-frequency aspects in order to increase the accuracy result. Keywords—aspects identification, lexicon relation, linguistic pattern, opinion mining, teacher evaluation.

Chapter ll Loggerhead Turtles in the Mediterranean Sea : Present Knowledge and Conservation Perspectives

The Mediterranean Sea covers an area of about 2.5 million km2, witl1 a coasdine of approximately 46,000 km, of which 19,000 km belong to islands. Natural communication with other seas is restricted to that with the Atlantic at the Straits of Gibraltar, where a narrow (approximately 12 km) passage is formed, across which lies a shallow sill. From an oceanographic point of view, the Mediterranean is an evaporation basin, and the resulting water deficit and salinity differences sustain a permanent strong incoming surface current and a weaker subsurface countercurrent across the Straits of Gibraltar. The Mediterranean Sea is roughly divided into two basins, the western and the eastern, connected by the shallow (approximately 400 m deep) Channel of Sici ly and the narrow Straits of Messina. The two basins have different hydrological conditions, the eastern being more saline and warmer. Because of lack of nutrients, the Mediterranean is one of the less productive seas in the world (Miller 1983). The loggerhead turtle is the most abundant

Heterocyclic Compounds as Corrosion Inhibitors for Mild Steel: A Review

ISSN: 2582-3353 Abstract: Corrosion inhibition of mild steels is an importance topic since the use of mild steel is inevitable in chemical processing, petroleum production, refining, pipelines, mining etc. The low cost, high mechanical strength and availability are the main advantages of the use of mild steels. Corrosion of mild steels occurs when it exposes to aggressive environment. Numerous corrosion inhibitors are developed for the control of corrosion of metals and alloys. Compounds containing N, S and O are most studied due their higher inhibition ability. Particularly in recent years, heterocyclic compounds have attracted huge attention due its simple preparation and superior corrosion inhibition activity towards mild steel in acidic environments. Therefore, the aim of the present review is to highlight the recent work carried out using heterocyclic compounds and its derivatives for steel protection in different corrosive environments. In addition, heterocyclic compounds reported for the corrosion inhibition of steel in CO 2 saturated brine environment are also highlighted. Detail mechanisms involved in the inhibition processes are also discussed.
A novel audio forensic data-set for digital multimedia forensics

Abstract Today, digital multimedia (audio, video, images) is a common evidential source in litigation and criminal justice proceedings, and, not surprisingly, multimedia forensics is an active research area. One particular challenge faced by multimedia forensic researchers is the lack of a comprehensive and publicly available data-set for evaluating existing and new algorithms. This paper presents a digital audio forensic data-set, designed to facilitate evaluation of audio forensic algorithms (e.g. microphone identification, acoustic environment identification and splice detection). This paper also briefly describes the data-collection settings, microphones, speakers, languages and notations used. Existing tamper-detection techniques rely on artefacts due to recording devices, codec and/or the acoustic environment in the audio in question. Experimental results show that the selected approaches achieved promising results.
Reconfigurable Negative Group Delay Circuit with a Low Insertion Loss Using a Coupled Line

This paper presents a design of a transmissive-type, low insertion loss (IL) negative group delay (NGD) circuit with a reconfigurable NGD. The proposed circuit consists of a series transmission lines (TLs) and shunt short-circuited coupled lines where an isolation port is terminated with a parasitic compensated PIN diode. Analytical design equations are derived to obtain the circuit parameters for the predefined NGD and IL. The low IL can be achieved because of the very high characteristic impedance of the short-circuited coupled lines. The TL terminated with a PIN diode is used to achieve the constant center frequency of reconfigurable NGD circuit. For experimental validation, the NGD circuit is designed and fabricated at a center frequency (f0) of 2.14 GHz. In the measurement, the NGD varies from -0.5 ns to -2 ns with an IL variation of 2.08 to 3.60 dB at f0 = 2.14 GHz. The NGD bandwidth (bandwidth of GD less than 0 ns) varies from 90 MHz to 50 MHz. The minimum input/output return losses are higher than 10 dB for the overall tuning range.

A DEEP DIVE INTO LOAD BALANCING TOOLS FOR HADOOP APPLICATION MANAGEMENT

-Hadoop has become an important tool for the researchers and scientists in order to store and analyze huge amount of data. This huge data is placed in Hadoop with the help of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). Block placement policy is employed in HDFS to split a really huge file into blocks and place these block across the cluster in an exceedingly distributed manner. Basically, Hadoop and HDFS are designed to works expeditiously on the consistent cluster. However during this era of networking, we cannot think about having solely a cluster of consistent nodes. So, there's the necessity of storage policy which will work expeditiously on each consistent still because of the heterogeneous cluster. Thus, the need of applications which will be executing in a time-efficiently manner and supporting consistent still because the heterogeneous setting will be sufficient. In Hadoop data 1. MapReduce is programming framework for writing Map-Reduce applications which enables them to run on the distributed platform in parallel. MapReduce permits the applications to run on Hadoop environment. Hadoop uses HDFS block placement policy to place the data blocks on nodes. Hadoop cluster gets unbalanced every now and then, because of overutilization of few nodes against the less used nodes or recently created other new nodes with no blocks hold on them. To resolve this case, Hadoop encompasses an inherent tool known as HDFS Balancer.
Gamiﬁcation for Better Experience in Queues During Entertainment Events

—It is a trend that large technological events of multiple attractions become research points of regional and urban development strategies. While most studies investigate economic factors, population-oriented or marketing, our study is focused on the experience lived in these events by the participants. This study made an investigation based on signiﬁcant events and fairs of digital games in Brazil that can be applied to other events of the same nature. We conducted an investigative study using design thinking techniques such as desk research, interviews,awareness book, one day in life, empathy map, persona, simulation and ideation workshop. As a prototype result, we proposed a design of a gamiﬁed mobile application that communicates with a wristband with identiﬁers (QRCode) scattered throughout the event. Our ﬁndings, besides helping in the design of a solution, showed the real need of managing queues and providing a good user experience in these queues. This design can contribute to a new vision and development trend of applications that seek to manage events of large and diverse simultaneous attractions environment.
Location Based Friend Recommendation System

: Friend recommendation is one of the most popular characteristics of social network platforms, which recommends familiar people to users. The concept of friend recommendation originates from social networks such as Twitter & facebook, which uses friends-of-friend method to recommend people. We can say users do not make friends from random people but end up making friends with their friends’ friends. The existing methods have narrow scope of recommendation and are less efficient. We put forward a new friend recommendation model to overpower the defects of existing system. For better friend recommendation system with high accuracy, we will use collaborative filtering method to compare similar, dissimilar data of users and will make a recommendation system which gives user to user recommendation based on their similar choices, activities and preferences. Location based friend recommendation system are becoming popular because it brings physical world to digital platform and gives better insight of user’s preferences or interest This recommendation system will increase the scope of recommendation from one user to other with similar set of interest and their location.

Droop Control of Parallel Dual-Mode Inverters Used in Micro Grid

Grid-connected and island control of parallel inverters used in micro grid based on a variety of micro-source were introduced in this paper. Micro-grid in the connected mode should be able to operate automatically with the grid frequency and output high quality electricity in PQ control, and in island mode it can realize load power sharing of the parallel DGs in Droop control [1]. Simultaneously, it should also ensure the stability of the load voltage and frequency in island mode with the droop-based controller which can make the micro-grid smoothly switching between the two operation modes. Finally, simulation of two inverters in the connected mode and island mode was introduced in MATLAB / SIMULINK; the simulation results show the effect of droop control and the load-sharing function. The results also indicate the feasibility and correctness of the control strategy. Keywords-micro grid; parallel dual-mode inverters; PQ control; droop control

Bayesian Estimation in Piecewise Constant Model with Gamma Noise by Using Reversible Jump MCMC

A piecewise constant model is often applied to model data in many fields. Several noises can be added in the piecewise constant model. This paper proposes the piecewise constant model with a gamma multiplicative noise and a method to estimate a parameter of the model. The estimation is done in a Bayesian framework. A prior distribution for the model parameter is chosen. The prior distribution for the parameter model is multiplied with a likelihood function for the data to build a posterior distribution for the parameter. Because a number of models are also parameters, a form of the posterior distribution for the parameter is too complex. A Bayes estimator cannot be calculated easily. A reversible jump Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) is used to find the Bayes estimator of the model parameter. A result of this paper is the development of the piecewise constant model and the method to estimate the model parameter. An advantage of this method can simultaneously estimate the constant piecewise model parameter.
