In this work, we propose AttLSTM-CNNs, an attention-based LSTM network and convolution network that jointly extracts the underlying pattern among the time-series for the classification. The attention-based LSTM automatically captures the long-term temporal dependency among the series, and the CNN describes the spatial sparsity and heterogeneity in the data. The extensive experiments show that the proposed model outperforms the other methods for time-series classification.","PeriodicalId":156307,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130886201","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}

Mobile sensing has become a popular solution in recent years. However, it still suffers from problems such as lack of data and high system uncertainty.

We adopt the Random Forest Algorithm (RF) to adaptively choose the more accurate models (Kriging or IDW) according to the features we extracted. The experiment based on real world testbed shows our adaptive method achieves up to 30.6% error reduction.","PeriodicalId":156307,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123000555","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}

Our implementation demonstrates that full-scale TCP can run within the resource constraints of a modern WSN platform, and serves as a vehicle to explore the benefits of using a full TCP stack in the WSN setting. We showcase TCPlp via three applications of TCP: (1) reliable data collection in the context of an application, (2) an interactive configuration/debug shell, and (3) a mote-based web server.","PeriodicalId":156307,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116651504","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}

Apart from learning the audio and visual data respectively, EMOdal efficiently learns the common and modality-specific information underlying the two kinds of signals, and therefore improves the inference ability. The model has been evaluated on our large-scale emotional data set.

Guard band is designed to be kept clear of interference from other WiFi, thereby safeguarding the ZigBee within. Our system effectively captures WiFi (802.11b) guard band on the fly, using physical layer information accessible on commodity ZigBee RF.

We also propose a multi-task attention-based DNN model (i.e., MT-A-DNN) on the emotion learning. MT-A-DNN efficiently learns the high-order dependency and non-linear correlations underlying in the audio data. Extensive experiments show that MT-A-DNN outperforms conventional methods on the emotion recognition.

Distributed cloud radio access network (C-RAN) is becoming available for the future massive WSN. However, real-world distributed C-RAN is less explored for low-end IoT based WSN due to its difficulties in implementation. In this paper, we built a distributed C-RAN which has tens of distributed radio frontends using USRP N210s in a 20 × 20 × 3 m3 area. By exploiting the inherent hardware properties of low-end IoT devices and the spatial diversity of distributed C-RAN system, we show the distributed C-RAN can potentially decode collided signals from low-end IoT devices with all signal processing been done on the cloud.","PeriodicalId":156307,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems","volume":"217 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130375953","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}

Instead, autonomous or user-carried devices are often localized by measuring the time taken for an emitted signal to reach a known location; this signal can be sound, light, radio waves, or another similar sensed quantity. Autonomous mobile devices already contain motors, which produce sounds as a side effect of their operation, and so can potentially be included in a localization scheme without new hardware. In this paper, we briefly outline the challenges that need to be met for accurate detection and identification of motor-produced signals.
