A dual three-phase induction machine based flywheel storage system driven by modular multilevel converters for fault ride through in HVDC systems
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
One of the main challenges of voltage source converter based high voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) transmission systems is the AC faults at the grid side. This work introduces the integration of multiphase induction machine ...
QU-IR at SemEval 2016 Task 3: Learning to rank on Arabic community question answering forums with word embedding
(
Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Resorting to community question answering (CQA) websites for finding answers has gained momentum in the past decade with the explosive rate at which social media has been proliferating. With many questions left unanswered ...
Work in progress: Use of mobile technology to deliver training in blended learning and independent study formats
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
As citizens of countries and employees become comfortable using mobile technology, there is an opportunity for the workplace to deliver training using mobile technology. Using mobile learning allows employees to learn just ...
A wireless oxygen saturation and heart rate monitoring and alarming system based on the Qatar early warning scoring system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Monitoring vital signs and alarming healthcare emergency response units whenever measurements are outside the normal range could be life-saving for high-risk patients who are living alone or sleeping. This paper presents ...
Autism in the Gulf States: Why social robotics is the way forward
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we assess the current situation in the Gulf States with respect to autism awareness and diagnostic facilities, and emphasize the need for epidemiology studies in light of prevalence statistics available for ...
A Novel method for online correction of amplitude and phase imbalances in sinusoidal encoders signals
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Resolvers and other sinusoidal transducers are angular position and speed sensors that produce supposedly perfect sine and cosine signals in which the angular position is encoded. Suitable converters are normally used to ...
Computationally efficient environmental monitoring with electronic nose: A potential technology for ambient assisted living
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Recently, ambient assisted living technologies have emerged to improve the quality of life of ageing populations. Identification of health-endangering indoor gases with a hardware-friendly solution may provide an early ...
Modified total variation regularization using fuzzy complement for image denoising
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose a denoising algorithm based on the Total Variation (TV) model. Specifically, we associate to the regularization term of the Rodin-Osher-Fatimi (ROF) functional a small weight whenever denoising ...
IoT-based smart parking system for sporting event management
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
By connecting devices, people, vehicles and infrastructures everywhere in a city, governments and their partners can improve community wellbeing and other economic and financial aspects (e.g., cost and energy savings). ...
Quantification of carcinogenic odor of formaldehyde with electronic nose technologyd
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Based on recent experimental discoveries about a link between the length of exposure to formaldehyde and cancers of the lymphatic and hematopoietic systems, we present a low-cost and compact solution for monitoring ...
