Researchers and companies keep searching for technologies that can locate users on a large scale with low costs and the highest possible accuracy. When evaluating the accuracy of a localization system, there is a trade-off between the cost and labor involved in acquiring ground-truth measurements. The cheapest option is to acquire measurements in fixed spots and manually compute their true location in a local coordinate system using distance measuring tools. However, this method is prone to human errors and has a high setup overhead. In contrast, high-end motion capture systems are easy to set up but have prohibitive prices. A middle-of-the-road solution is to use a consumer-grade motion capture system such as the HTC Vive which, although designed for virtual reality video games, can be adapted for scientific applications. We propose a ground-truth system for anchor-based indoor localization systems which builds on the HTC Vive and we demonstrate its use on ultra-wideband (UWB) localization. We apply Procrustes Analysis to bring location data sets into the coordinate system of a room, in order to easily overlap, visualize, and analyze measurements. We use the HTC Vive to acquire the locations of UWB anchors, which allows users to quickly test which hardware placement yields the lowest localization error. The resulting ground-truth system costs under $1000, has an average accuracy of more than 5 mm, is easy to set up, and can be used for both static and dynamic measurements.","PeriodicalId":170847,"journal":{"name":"2020 12th International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control Systems and Workshops (ICUMT)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117277298","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}

When PD treatment is administered early, it is significantly more effective. Unfortunately, it is quite challenging to detect this disease at its early stage and when the symptoms can be recognized it is usually quite late. For this reason there is big motivation for development more accessible and accurate solutions for the detection of PD. One of the early symptoms is so-called hypomimia. This paper introduces an automatic method, which can objectively detect PD. The method is based on analysis of emotion changes during pronunciation defined speech exercises. We achieved balanced accuracy 69 % using XGBoost algorithm. As the exercise we proposed to use a Czech tongue twister - the difficult to pronounce sentence. The features can be explained and thus it can be used in clinical practice. We identified that the most valuable emotion for PD detection in this case is fear.","PeriodicalId":170847,"journal":{"name":"2020 12th International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control Systems and Workshops (ICUMT)","volume":"594 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116319944","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}

Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to have important traffic exchange in future wireless networks. It is a generic term for technologies that allow devices to communicate with each other. These are wired and wireless sensing systems that send information from one device to another. The network traffic prediction problem includes the prediction of future network traffic characteristics from observations of past traffic. Network traffic forecasting has many applications including network monitoring, resource management, and fault detection. Machine learning (ML) has been successfully applied to traffic prediction. ML technologies have proven capable of capturing nonlinear patterns in data, making them a good candidate for traffic prediction. In this paper, we perform the delay prediction in IoT communication using a multistep ahead prediction (MSP) and single-step ahead prediction (SSP) with Time Series NARX Recurrent Neural Networks. The prediction accuracy has been evaluated using three neural network training algorithms: Trainlm, Traincgf, Trainrp, with MSE as performance function in terms of using root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) as prediction accuracy measure.","PeriodicalId":170847,"journal":{"name":"2020 12th International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control Systems and Workshops (ICUMT)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124532583","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}

Acoustical variances between male and female speakers pose a problem and it is established that gender-dependent emotion recognizers perform better than gender-independent ones. The provided solution can recognize seven emotions (anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, surprise, and neutral state). Data augmentation is used to compensate for the lack of quality data, with the raw speech samples derived from four datasets, namely: RAVDESS, CREMA-D, SAVEE, and TESS. The system is composed of two stages: 1) gender classification and; 2) emotion classification. The output of the gender classifier in the first stage determines the gender-specific classifier for the second stage. The experimental evaluation displays the performance in terms of the correct emotion recognition rate of the proposed SER model. The results demonstrate that a gender-differentiated system significantly improves performance. The obtained results also show that using Global Average Pooling instead of a fully-connected network at the end of the CNN classifier further improves the performance. Future implementations of this proposed system may allow effective human-computer intelligent interaction.","PeriodicalId":170847,"journal":{"name":"2020 12th International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control Systems and Workshops (ICUMT)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134145707","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 main obtained key result is the overall performance of LoRaWAN infrastructure in the target area, based on iC880A gateway and nodes with Microchip RN2483, all registered in The Things Network. Measured data were obtained by sending WGS84 format coordinates through the network. Upon reception, the gateway supplemented the data with the parameters of the received signal and stored with the data to Google Spreadsheets. Since the weakest RSSI received within the are is well above -120 dBm, not reaching the -135 dBm limit of the gateway, the results suggest relatively good potential of this technology in this application, even though the environment is quite of diverse character, therefore the obstacles are not uniformly distributed and growing distance does not always imply more obstructing objects in the signal path.","PeriodicalId":170847,"journal":{"name":"2020 12th International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control Systems and Workshops (ICUMT)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122179278","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}
