PCA IP-core for gas applications on the heterogenous zynq platform
(2013 , Conference Paper)
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a commonly used technique for data reduction in general as well as for dimensionality reduction in gas identification systems when a sensor array is being used. This paper presents the ...
Automatic handedness detection from off-line handwriting
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In forensics, the handedness detection or the classification of writers into left or right-handed helps investigators focusing more on a certain category of suspects. However, only a few studies have been carried out in ...
Skills of engineers in knowledge based economies: A comprehensive literature review, and model development
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Recent studies emphasize the needs of a wider set of skills engineers require than ever thought. In this paper, authors report on a systematic literature review on this issue. Findings of the review are spanned over two ...
Detection of perinatal hypoxia using time-frequency analysis of heart rate variability signals
(2013 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a time-frequency approach to detect perinatal hypoxia by characterizing the nonstationary nature of heart rate variability (HRV) signals. Quadratic time-frequency distributions (TFDs) are used to represent ...
Securing vehicle-to-grid communications in the smart grid
(2013 , Article)
Using vehicle-to-grid (V2G) services, battery vehicles (BVs) may help the smart grid alleviate peaks in power consumption. However, wireless communications infrastructure between BVs and the smart grid also introduce severe ...
HA-CIDS: A hierarchical and autonomous IDS for cloud systems
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Cloud computing is an attractive model that provides the delivery of on-demand computing resources over the Internet and on a pay-for-use basis. However, while intruders may exploit clouds for their advantage, most IDS ...
Optimum power and rate allocation in video sensor networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In a sensor network, each sensor has a limited energy supply. Therefore, it is critical to minimize the power consumed by each sensor to maximize its lifetime. Video sensor networks differ from conventional sensor networks ...
A case report from Nepalese community pharmacy on levofloxacin induced severe abdominal pain
(2013 , Article)
A 46-year-old female patient developed severe abdominal pain shortly after taking levofloxacin, 1000. mg for acute bacterial sinusitis. The pain started after taking the first dose of levofloxacin and became worse after ...
Limitations and high pressure behavior of MOF-5 for CO2 capture
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2013 , Article)
Porous network structures (e.g. metal–organic frameworks, MOFs) show considerable potential in dethroning monoethanol amine (MEA) from being the dominant scrubber for CO2 at the fossil-fuel-burning power generators. In ...
A weighted real-time predictive controller for a grid connected flying capacitors inverter
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
This paper proposes a new controller for a grid connected power conditioning unit (PCU). The PCU consists of a flying capacitors inverter (FCI) connected to the grid through an inductor and a step-up transformer. A hybrid ...
