Data driven feature extraction for gender classification using multi-script handwritten texts
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a study on assessing the effectiveness of machine learned features to predict gender of writers from images of handwriting. Pre-trained Convolutional Neural Networks have been employed as feature ...
Sequence-Based Simulation Optimization: An Application to Container Terminals
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a novel method for simulation-optimization that incorporates the sequence in which the decision variables (resource levels) are optimized. The authors hypothesize that implementing such a sequence will ...
Automatic ranking of information retrieval systems
(
Association for Computing Machinery, Inc
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Typical information retrieval system evaluation requires expensive manually-collected relevance judgments of documents, which are used to rank retrieval systems. Due to the high cost associated with collecting relevance ...
Control of High Gain Modified SEPIC Converter: A Constant Switching Frequency Modulation Sliding Mode Controlling Technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates, analyses and presents a control scheme for a modified SEPIC converter. High voltage conversion ratio is accomplished by using fewer passive components. The modified SEPIC converter is a combination ...
Energy Harvesting Schemes for UAV based Communications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents two generic charging and transmission schemes to find the trade-off between the altitude of an Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) base station and the acquired harvested energy for maximum coverage area. The ...
Boundary linear-quadratic control for a system of coupled parabolic-hyperbolic PDEs and ODE
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
The paper deals with the design of a boundary optimal controller for a general model of parabolic-hyperbolic PDEs coupled with an ODE. The augmented infinite-dimensional state space representation has been used in order ...
Actuator Fault Estimation for Multi-agent Systems: A Sliding-mode Observer-based Approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
This study is concerned with the design of a distributed fault estimation scheme for linear multi-agent systems subject to actuator faults. For each agent, a sliding-mode observer-based estimator module is proposed that ...
Blind secure communication: The Secure degrees of freedom of one hop wireless networks with No CSI
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
We study a number of wireless networks with secrecy constraints and No CSI. The wiretap and MIMO broadcast channels in a presence of an external eavesdropper and the MIMO interference channel with secret messages and no ...
DyDroid: Measuring Dynamic Code Loading and Its Security Implications in Android Applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Android has provided dynamic code loading (DCL) since API level one. DCL allows an app developer to load additional code at runtime. DCL raises numerous challenges with regards to security and accountability analysis of ...
Throughput, latency and cost comparisons of microcontroller-based implementations of wireless sensor network (WSN) in high jump sports
(
American Institute of Physics Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
In high jump sports, approach take-off speed and force during the take-off are two (2) main important parts to gain maximum jump. To measure both parameters, wireless sensor network (WSN) that contains microcontroller and ...
