Many researchers have recently approved that k-NN is a high prediction accuracy for variety of real world systems using many different types of datasets. However, as we know, k-NN is a type of lazy learning algorithms as it has to compare to each of stored training examples for each observed instance. Besides, the prediction accuracy of k-NN is under the influence of K values. Mostly, the higher K values make the algorithm yield lower prediction accuracy according to our experiments. For these issues, this paper focuses on two properties that are to upgrade the classification accuracy by introducing Regional Distance-based k-NN (RD-kNN) and to speed up the processing time performance of k-NN by applying multi-threading approach. For the experiments, we used the real data sets, wine, iris, heart stalog, breast cancer, and breast tissue, from UCI machine learning repository. According to our test cases and simulations carried out, it was also experimentally confirmed that the new approach, RD-kNN, has a better performance than classical k-NN.","PeriodicalId":122969,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Intelligent Informatics and Biomedical Sciences (ICIIBMS)","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125682534","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}

To verify the validity of the proposed control method, the experiments have been carried out with 6 target objects. The 300 images for each target object were acquired in various directions.

Due to the fast computation, the Single-Image Super-Resolution (SISR) is one of the well-known Super Resolution-Reconstruction (SRR) techniques and the SISR is desired for applying on only one poor resolution image. Therefore, this article aims to present the image enlarged technique founded on SISR algorithm utilizing Hampel stochastic function and high-band frequency synthesizing. Unfortunately, the efficacy of the SISR technique is relied upon three parameters (b, h, k) and it is difficult task for estimating these suitable values of these three parameters for reconstructing the superior enriched resolution image with the optimum Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR). In consideration of deciphering to this problem, the Hampel stochastic function, which is relied upon wholly one parameter (J), instead of three parameters like the conventional function, is comprised into SISR technique. By studying on 14 classic images, which are corrupted by different noise models, in the statically exploratory section, the efficacy of the fast SISR technique closely equal to the conventional SISR technique but the parameter adjustment process of the proposed fast SISR technique (with one parameter) is more simple and fasert than the conventional SISR technique (with three parameters). Because of fast computation in the parameter adjustment process, the proposed fast SISR technique is more suitable for real implementation.","PeriodicalId":122969,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Intelligent Informatics and Biomedical Sciences (ICIIBMS)","volume":"364 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121383344","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 was found that a factory environment monitoring system using climate sensors such as O2, Co2, Nh3, and Pm2 has recently become essential because it can help protect the safety and health of workers. Climate sensors are a mesh-type arrangement placed at certain distances apart to acquire and anlyze exact environmental information. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy increase as the number of sensors are increased. However, as the number of sensors increases, it becomes more difficult to detect faulty sensors, and in the worst case, false information can lead to accidents. It is necessary, therefore, for environment monitoring systems using a large number of climate sensors to have a function that will automatically detect the failure of a sensor. The value of an individual climate sensor is organically realted to the value of neighbor sensors, unless they are located in enclosed spaces. If the sensor value at a specific position changes, the neighboring sensor's values are also changed. In the past, much research has studied algorithms to improve the sensing accuracy of specific location using neighbor sensor data based on these principle. If these algorithms are used inversely, it is possible to infer or predict the environmental information in the area where the sensor has failed, by using the values from neighboring sensors. Even with these systems in operaton, a major concern on many industrial sites is that work does not stop even if a sensor failure is detected. In other words, when workers are in areas where a sensor has failed, they may become exposed to hazardous conditions. Therefore, even if a sensor fails, for the sake of the workers, it is necessary to continuously provide environmental information to those in the affected area. This paper presents the automatic sensor fault detection and sensor reconstruction algorithm for emergency recovery relative to the production of continuous and reliable environmental data. The principle of automatic sensor fault detection and the sensor reconstruction algorithm are the same. The proposed algorithms consist of four steps. In the first step, a total of nine sensors consisting of 3∗3 are configured as one set. In the second step, the three sensors, including the central sensor, are grouped into one group. One set becomes a total of four groups. In the third step, reference curve maps (RCM) are created to record changes in sensor values according to the amount of ambient gas. The RCM records the sensor's values as the gas changes in density. Four RCMs are created per set. A total of 32 RCMs are created because one sensor is included in a total of eight sets. In the fourth step, the automatic sensor fault detection and sensor reconstruction algorithms ar","PeriodicalId":122969,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Intelligent Informatics and Biomedical Sciences (ICIIBMS)","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122612175","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}
