A Green Mesh Routers' Placement to Ensure Small Cells Backhauling in 5G Networks
2017
International audience; The wireless industry is preparing the fifth generation wireless systems with several requirements regarding capacity and coverage area. A promising solution to meet this challenge is a densification of the network via a large scale deployment of small cells from different sizes. The advantage here is that small cells are easy to deploy and cost-efficient compared to macro base stations. However, the challenge is to ensure a reliable backhaul links. Mesh routers backhauling is one of the candidate solutions here, since it is easy to deploy, doesn't use wired connections between locations and cost-efficient. Nevertheless, the issue is to deploy routers in the suitable…
Performance evaluation of different techniques to estimate subjective quality in live video streaming applications over LTE-Advance mobile networks
2018
Abstract Current mobile service providers are offering Gigabit Internet access over LTE-Advanced networks. Traditional services, such as live video streaming, over wired networks are feasible on these networks. However different aspects should be taken into account due to the fast changing network conditions as well as the constrained resources of the mobile phones, in order to provide a good subjective video quality in terms of Mean Opinion Score (MOS). Our goal is to estimate and predict this subjective metric without information or reference from the original video, known as Non Reference approach. This approach is important for the Service Provider from a practical point of view, becaus…
Luminescent supramolecular heterometallic macrocycles and their encapsulation on cholate gels
2018
The metal complex formed by coordination of Zn(II) to 1,7-bis(4-methylpyridine)-4-(2- naphthylmethyl)-1,4,7-triazaheptane (ZnL2+) was reacted in aqueous solution with [Pd(NO3)2(en)] and [Pt(NO3)2(en)] salts to form the self-assembled heterometallic macrocycles [Zn2L2Pd2(en)2]8+ and [Zn2L2Pt2(en)2]8+, respectively. Pd(II) and Pt(II)- coordination modulates the original emission of ZnL2+ arising from the presence of the naphthalene chromophore and the formation of the macrocycles can be monitored due to the PET process occurring with coordination of Pd(II) and Pt(II) to the pyridine units of ZnL2+. Additionally, several studies reveal that these heteromacrocycles can be encapsulated in Zn(II)…
Dynamic Resource Allocation and Computation Offloading for Edge Computing System
2020
In this work, we propose a dynamic optimization scheme for an edge computing system with multiple users, where the radio and computational resources, and offloading decisions, can be dynamically allocated with the variation of computation demands, radio channels and the computation resources. Specifically, with the objective to minimize the energy consumption of the considered system, we propose a joint computation offloading, radio and computational resource allocation algorithm based on Lyapunov optimization. Through minimizing the derived upper bound of the Lyapunov drift-plus-penalty function, the main problem is divided into several sub-problems at each time slot and are addressed sepa…
From human to artificial mouth, from basics to results
2009
Papier publié également dans : Proceedings en ligne de American Institute of Physics http://proceedings.aip.org/dbt/dbt.jsp?KEY=APCPCS&Volume=1137&Issue=1 (RN 2508; Sensory perception of the flavor release during the eating of a food piece is highly dependent upon mouth parameters. Major limitations have been reported during in vivo flavor release studies, such as marked intra- and inter-individual variability. To overcome these limitations, a chewing simulator has been developed to mimic the human mastication of food samples. The device faithfully reproduces most of the functions of the human mouth. The active cell comprises several mobile parts that can accurately reproduce shear and comp…
An Automatic Sleep Scoring Toolbox : Multi-modality of Polysomnography Signals’ Processing
2019
Sleep scoring is a fundamental but time-consuming process in any sleep laboratory. To speed up the process of sleep scoring without compromising accuracy, this paper develops an automatic sleep scoring toolbox with the capability of multi-signal processing. It allows the user to choose signal types and the number of target classes. Then, an automatic process containing signal pre-processing, feature extraction, classifier training (or prediction) and result correction will be performed. Finally, the application interface displays predicted sleep structure, related sleep parameters and the sleep quality index for reference. To improve the identification accuracy of minority stages, a layer-w…
Carbon monoxide detection
2019
Carbon monoxide (CO) is a particularly toxic gas, and the CO poisoning is the leading cause of fatal poisoning in the world. One solution to deal with this dangerous gas is to exploit the advantages given to us by the applications and the technology advances in internet of things (IoT). In this context, we propose to integrate carbon monoxide detection objects to the internet, as part of civil protection intervention applications in case of detection of carbon monoxide to avoid poisoning. To do this, we propose a typical IoT architecture to manage the alerts sent to civil protection in the event of detection of carbon monoxide (CO). The architecture is based on the Message Queue Telemetry T…
Particle Swarm Optimization as a New Measure of Machine Translation Efficiency
2018
The present work proposes a new approach to measuring efficiency of evolutionary algorithm-based Machine Translation. We implement some attributes of evolutionary algorithms performing cosine similarity objective function of a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm then, we evaluate an English text set for translation precision into the Spanish text as a simulated benchmark, and explore the backward process. Our results show that PSO algorithm can be used for translation of multiple language sentences with one identifier only, in other words the technology presented is language-pair independent. Specifically, we indicate that our cosine similarity objective function improves the veloci…
Source-Target Mapping Model of Streaming Data Flow for Machine Translation
2017
Streaming information flow allows identification of linguistic similarities between language pairs in real time as it relies on pattern recognition of grammar rules, semantics and pronunciation especially when analyzing so called international terms, syntax of the language family as well as tenses transitivity between the languages. Overall, it provides a backbone translation knowledge for building automatic translation system that facilitates processing any of various abstract entities which combine to specify underlying phonological, morphological, semantic and syntactic properties of linguistic forms and that act as the targets of linguistic rules and operations in a source language foll…
