The received unknown signal at the energy detector is considered as the primary signal transmitted by a primary network user (e.g. cognitive radio network). This research is focused on derivation of the closed-form average detection probability over the η - μ fading channel model. Further, results are extended to two diversity reception cases such as maximal ratio combining (MRC) and square-law combining (SLC) techniques with independent fading channels. Detection performance is discussed with receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves. Our analysis is validated by numerical and simulation results.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131841685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to inherent complexity of natural languages, most of machine translation systems adopt rather ad-hoc strategies such as word level translation without concerning a proper theoretical basis. This has been a major reason for why the developments in natural language processing could not achieve as expected. This paper presents a theoretical-based approach to English-Sinhala machine translation through the concept of Varanagema (conjugation) in Sinhala Language. The theory of Varanagema in Sinhala language handles major language primitives including noun, verbs and prepositions. The concept of Varanagema also drastically reduces the number of word forms to be stored in the dictionaries of the machine translation system. The design, implementation and results of test versions of English-Sinhala machine translation system has been presented in the paper.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"270 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123126652","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed algorithm is based on concept of calculating number of points in the reference image and same sized target image which satisfy the defined similarity criterion. The algorithm uses a counter to count the number of the similar intensity valued points (as per similarity criterion) in both images. The window corresponding to maximum value of counter indicates the best match. The performance of proposed algorithm is studied by registering a set of occluded and noisy images. It is observed through experimental results on different type of real world images that the proposed algorithm efficiently registers the images with very low computation time.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"40 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130913544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is an easy task for a human being to identify the expression of a person in a particular video sequence but not many efficient fully automated systems are available to perform this task. Face recognition requires the detection of face followed by landmarks identification that serves as a basis in facial expression recognition in a video sequence. Many methods have been given to detect a face in an image efficiently and accurately. But automatic detection of landmarks in each frame of a video sequence is still a difficult task. Most of the system which works on the recognition of facial expression finds the landmarks manually. In this paper a fully automated landmark detection method for the frames in a video sequence is introduced.","PeriodicalId":117199,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Industrial and Information Systems (ICIIS)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134095838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
