Hardware PCA for gas identification systems using high level synthesis on the Zynq SoC
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
One of the significant stages in a gas identification system is dimensionality reduction to speed up the processing part. This is even more important when the system is implemented on a hardware platform where the resources ...
Software interfaces: On the impact of interface design anomalies
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Interfaces are recognized as an important mechanism to define contracts governing interactions between semi-independent software modules. Well-designed interfaces significantly reduce software complexity and ease maintainability ...

(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The prediction of gender from handwriting is a very interesting research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare ...
Outage performance of OFDM-based relaying systems under IQ imbalance
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In the presence of different IQ imbalance (IQI) levels in the different nodes of a cooperative system, it becomes necessary to investigate the effect of each imbalance parameter on the performance. In this contribution, ...
