Bootstrap-Based Quality Metric for Scarce Sensing Systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2018 , Conference Paper)This paper considers Mobile Crowd-Sensing (MCS) systems that suffer from scarce participant availability due to small sample sizes in each sensing cycle. With such small sample sizes, a sample in error would dramatically ... -
Boron removal from saline water by a microbial desalination cell integrated with donnan dialysis
( Elsevier , 2015 , Article)Boron has toxic effects on plant growth and thus its removal is necessary from desalinated saline water for irrigation application. Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) are a new approach for effective desalination but boron ... -
Bovine reticulum derived extracellular matrix (b-REM) for reconstruction of full thickness skin wounds in rats
( Elsevier GmbH , 2016 , Article)Thirty six clinically healthy adult Wistar rats of either sex were used in the study and randomly divided into three groups having twelve animals in each group. Under general anesthesia, a full-thickness skin wound (20 ? ... -
BPFL: A Blockchain Based Privacy-Preserving Federated Learning Scheme
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Conference Paper)Federated Learning (FL), which allows multiple participants to co-train machine Learning models without exposing local data, has been recognized as a promising method in the past few years. However, in the FL process, the ... -
Brain mr image enhancement for tumor segmentation using 3d u-net
( MDPI , 2021 , Article)MRI images are visually inspected by domain experts for the analysis and quantification of the tumorous tissues. Due to the large volumetric data, manual reporting on the images is subjective, cumbersome, and error prone. ... -
