Such authentication methods should be adopted which can continuously verify that only genuine user is using the system resources for entire session. This research work has implemented a true continuous authentication system, based on keystroke dynamics, which tends to validate the user on each action by using the proposed robust recurrent confidence model(R-RCM). Moreover, the recurrent neural network(RNN) has been used to exploit the sequential nature of keystroke data.

Readily available and cost-effective materials were used for manufacturing TENG like paper, thread sealant PTFE tape, and pencil. The manufactured paper based TENG produced short circuit current and open circuit voltage of $110 mu mathrm{A}$ and 234 V respectively. The maximum power density of $96.22 mu mathrm{W} /$ cm2 was achieved at 5 M $Omega$. The rectified signal from TENG was used to charge a capacitor array of $300 mu mathrm{F}$ which was successively used to power the environmental sensor.

The demand for a low complexity precoding algorithm is significantly increased. Linear precoding schemes, such as zero-forcing (ZF), are capable to obtain a quasi-optimum performance when a favourable channel propagation occurs in downlink massive (MIMO) systems. Particularly, conventional linear precoding techniques require to calculate a matrix inverse which increases the expenses of computational complexity. In this paper, a low complexity linear precoder based on a hybrid acceleration overrelaxation (AOR) method is proposed. The optimal relaxation, acceleration parameters, and the initial solution are selected to achieve an attractive balance between the performance and the computational complexity. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm has greatly reduced the complexity from $mathcal{O}(K^{3})$ to $mathcal{O}(K^{2})$ (where K is the number of users). It also outperforms the up-to-date algorithms.","PeriodicalId":163493,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Conference on UK-China Emerging Technologies (UCET)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125607151","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}

GNSS is one of the sensors used in connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) for positioning, navigation and timing (PNT). Hence, it is essential that GNSS receivers in CAVs are robust and resilient. In this paper, a method consisting of two layers of GNSS observation checks is suggested to exclude these effects in order to improve the positioning accuracy. The first layer excludes all non-consistent measurements identified by a chi-square test threshold. The second layer uses a decision tree for the exclusion of any remaining multipath/NLOS affected measurements, based on a data set obtained from a ray tracer for a 3D mapped model environment.

The proposed approach is based on three main steps: cleansing, modelling, and storytelling. In the first step, an imputation process is conducted to remove missing values. Then, k-nearest neighbor’s algorithm is applied to classify patients. To evaluate the performance of the proposed approach, two criteria, namely the F1 score and the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) has been used.
