Its glyphs experienced seven major transformations in chronological order: oracle-bone script, bronze script, seal script, clerical script, cursive script, regular script and simplified script. As the earliest Chinese script, many oracle-bone glyphs still remain undecoded. In this paper, we use two types of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), Pix2Pix and CycleGAN to map oracle-bone glyphs to simplified glyphs directly. The research results can be used to help decode undecoded oracle-bone glyphs, find the relationships between these scripts, and enrich Chinese language, history and culture education.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128966644","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}

In addition to the time required for this process, current practices are also susceptible to spreading contagious diseases (e.g., COVID-19, COVID-19 Delta Variant). The concept of no-interaction school attendance system can help us not only to evade the waste of valuable class time via attendance automation, but also prevent the spread of contagious diseases. This paper proposes a no-interaction school attendance scheme that utilizes machine learning concepts over Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) values on the Wi-Fi 2.4GHZ frequency band. It frames the problem of attendance recording as binary classification problem where a student is present if he/she is adjacent to his peers that belong to the same class room and absent otherwise. A set of novel feature vectors was computed by considering the sequences of RSSI values as time series input to binary classifiers to predict a student’s location in a classroom. The proposed prediction model achieved a maximum of 96% accuracy.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129077049","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 scheme employs the multi-angle centered discrete fractional Fourier transform (MA-CDFRFT) to mitigate the Doppler and chirp shifts. A time-varying multi-path Doppler channel model is used to describe most moving scenarios in wireless communications. Mobility induces time-varying interference to the standard time-invariant model, therefore, the MA-CDFRFT is applied to minimize the channel distortions. Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme effectively suppresses the time-varying distortions.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129217889","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}

IoT devices collect and share data about the environment in which they are integrated and about people involved in activities performed in such an environment. The data can be unintentionally propagated outside of the intended or prescribed context, such as a business meeting. Enabling the safe use of IoT devices comes at the cost of strict privacy regulations and increased complexity. Therefore, smart environments pose new engineering and privacy challenges that require novel tools. In the present paper, we propose a system architecture design based on robotic assistance for raising the awareness of people about privacy policies. As our system is designed with modularity in mind, it gives the flexibility to users to design privacy policies using a controllable and accountable set of rules, it supports heterogeneity in terms of software and hardware choices, and it enables expansion with new functionalities. We implement the proposed system design in a prototype using a semi-humanoid robot in the context of business meetings.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126408922","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}

Therefore, this paper proposes a modified Normalized Cross-Correlation algorithm for embedded systems aimed at creating a low-cost solution for a cement tile application. The algorithm relies on the concept of template matching and it makes use of cross-correlation, zero-mean normalization, and thresholding for its implementation. Experimental results show that the algorithm is suitable for a cement tile application and appropriate to detect defective cement tiles during an on-site installation or manufacturing process. Finally, it is shown that the algorithm can act as a discriminator to identify quality non-conformance issues.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127586829","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}

In addition, this camelid that is found at more than 3000 meters above sea level is very important for the economy due to its high fiber productivity, with a great demand for international export. For this reason, this work develops a heating system to prevent the death of alpacas, which is automatic, portable, and based on carbon fiber. The system is ergonomic for alpacas, which allows it to be adapted according to its size, in addition to having adequate components with a minimum size so as not to disturb the alpacas, it has a waterproof coating for rainy seasons and is scalable. The system provides an optimal solution to reduce the loss of camelids since it allows temperatures reading from -40° C to 125° C, and the range that alpacas can withstand is from -20° C to 30° C to avoid stress in these camelids. The ambient temperatures showed a range of - 6° C and 8° C, while the body temperature of 25° C and 30° C. Finally, it gives the alpacas in the high Andean areas a better quality of life, compared to other heating systems that are just statically implemented in the sheds.","PeriodicalId":127072,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 12th Annual Ubiquitous Computing, Electronics & Mobile Communication Conference (UEMCON)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133710162","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 goal of this project was to make a feasible incubator which can meet the demand of the incubation process followed in business sector. To accomplish this goal, we had acquired three main objectives. First, we studied previous and existing incubators that have been established. Second, we assessed the requirements of the communities to see how the incubator could be best used to help them. Finally, we used our collected data to make recommendations on how it should create and structure the proposed incubator.
