R-wave detection: A comparative analysis of four methods using newborn piglet ECG
( IEEE , 2010 , Conference Paper)In the electrocardiograph (ECG), R-wave is the positive upward deflection in the QRS complex which represents the depolarization of both left and right ventricles. Accurate detection of the R-wave peaks in the ECG plays a ... -
Radar fall detection using principal component analysis
( SPIE , 2016 , Conference Paper)Falls are a major cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries in people aged 65 years and older. Radar has the potential to become one of the leading technologies for fall detection, thereby enabling the elderly to live independently. ... -
Radar fall detectors: A comparison
( SPIE , 2016 , Conference Paper)Falls are a major cause of accidents in elderly people. Even simple falls can lead to severe injuries, and sometimes result in death. Doppler fall detection has drawn much attention in recent years. Micro-Doppler signatures ... -
A radon wigner ville based image dissimilarity measure
( IEEE , 2011 , Conference Paper)In this paper, we introduce a radon wigner ville based image dissimilarity measure. The proposed Image distortion measure aims to combine the useful properties of the wigner ville and the directionality of the finite Radon ... -
RamanNet: a generalized neural network architecture for Raman spectrum analysis
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2023 , Article)Raman spectroscopy provides a vibrational profile of the molecules and thus can be used to uniquely identify different kinds of materials. This sort of molecule fingerprinting has thus led to the widespread application of ... -
Random number of units for K-out-of-n systems
( Elsevier Inc. , 2017 , Article)This paper takes up the reliability and preventive replacement problems for a K-out-of-n system, where K is a stochastic parameter provided. Firstly, we consider the case when K is predefined as constant numbers as is done ... -

Random sampling for patch-based face recognition
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)Real face recognition is a challenging problem especially when face images are subject to distortions. This paper presents an approach to tackle partial occlusion distortions present in real face recognition using a single ... -
Range-Doppler radar sensor fusion for fall detection
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Conference Paper)Falls are the major cause of accidents in the elderly population. Propelled by their non-intrusive sensing capabilities and robustness to heat and lighting conditions, radar-based automated fall detection systems have ... -
Ranking disagreement between graders: Application to ranking hadith scholars
( American Scientific Publishers , 2017 , Article)Ranking raters based on their agreement or disagreement is a very active research field with many applications. It has been applied for instance for ranking automatic essay grading algorithms based on their agreement with ... -
Rapid Antibody-Based COVID-19 Mass Surveillance: Relevance, Challenges, and Prospects in a Pandemic and Post-Pandemic World.
( MDPI , 2020 , Article Review)The aggressive outbreak of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) as COVID-19 (coronavirus disease-2019) pandemic demands rapid and simplified testing tools for its effective management. Increased ... -
Rapid Curing Environmentally Degradable Polymeric Pill for Loss Circulation Treatment
( Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) , 2022 , Conference Paper)Loss circulation is frequent while drilling in naturally fractured or depleted reservoirs, which is usually associated with high non-productive time (NPT). Moreover, naturally pre-existing fractures may propagate when fluid ... -
Rapid diagnostics of coronavirus disease 2019 in early stages using nanobiosensors: Challenges and opportunities
( Elsevier B.V. , 2021 , Article Review)The rapid outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) around the world is a tragic and shocking event that demonstrates the unpreparedness of humans to develop quick diagnostic platforms for novel infectious diseases. ... -

( Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka , 2018 , Article)This paper proposes a rapid prototyping of wireless image transmission for wildlife monitoring system on Raspberry Pi. In this study, inputs based on the motion of surrounding activities were detected using a motion sensor ... -
Rational Contracts: Data-driven Service Provisioning in Blockchain-powered Systems
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2021 , Conference Paper)Smart Contracts (SCs), which are software programs that run on blockchain platforms, provide appealing security guarantees characterized by decentralized, autonomous, and verifiable execution. On the other hand, Service ... -
Rational Synthesis of Mixed Metal Oxide Clusters Supported on a Partially Etched MAX Phase for Efficient Electrocatalytic CO2 Conversion
( Springer , 2022 , Article)The precise fabrication of an efficient catalyst for CO2 conversion into beneficial hydrocarbons is particularly interesting for industrial and environmental applications. Herein, a three-dimensional (3D) hybrid of metal ... -
RB allocation based on genetic algorithm in cloud radio access networks
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2016 , Conference Paper)This work proposes a method to optimize the resource block allocation in the cloud radio access network for a long term evolution system. This approach consists in three steps. First, the baseband unit collects the required ... -
Re-parameterization reduces irreducible geometric constraint systems
( Elsevier Ltd , 2016 , Article)You recklessly told your boss that solving a non-linear system of size n (n unknowns and n equations) requires a time proportional to n, as you were not very attentive during algorithmic complexity lectures. So now, you ... -
Re-ranking web search results for better fact-checking: A preliminary study
( Association for Computing Machinery , 2018 , Conference Paper)Even though Web search engines play an important role in finding documents relevant to user queries, there is little to no attention given to how they perform in terms of usefulness for fact-checking claims. In this paper, ... -
