The final aim is to have a clear picture of the position, classification, identification and movement of cooperative and non-cooperative targets entering and leaving the 200 nautical miles limit of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Each sensor (i.e. satellite-based, ground-based, shipborne or airborne) has its own task and, in such a context, high frequency (HF) surface wave (SW) radars are inexpensive tools for long range early warning applications in open waters. They allow maximizing the effectiveness in dealing with fisheries protection, drug interdiction, illegal immigration, terrorist threats, search and rescue tasks. This paper focuses on the possibility of combining automatic identification system (AIS) data with HFSWR data for vessel detection and classification purposes. Three algorithms for target detection in compound Gaussian HF sea clutter are presented and their performance evaluated. The combined use of AIS plots provided by cooperative targets can allow the operator to discriminate non-cooperative targets and possible threats. The concurrent exploitation of AIS and HFSWR data is presented and discussed by means of real data recorded during the NURC experiment in the northern Tyrrhenian Sea in May 2009.","PeriodicalId":171474,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128208193","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 algorithms discussed range from energy detection to sophisticated feature detectors. The feature detectors that we present all have in common that they exploit some known structure of the transmitted signal. In particular we treat detectors that exploit cyclostationarity properties of the signal, and detectors that exploit a known eigenvalue structure of the signal covariance matrix. We also consider cooperative detection. Specifically we present data fusion rules for soft and hard combining, and discuss the energy efficiency of several different sensing, sleeping and censoring schemes in detail.","PeriodicalId":171474,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128259096","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}

Empirical mode decomposition (EMD), as a fully adaptive and data-driven method for analyzing nonlinear and nonstationary time series, is presented for measuring the synchronization of the brain rhythms from different brain lobes. The EMD algorithm is applied to a desired channel and each time one of the extracted intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) is considered as one of the brain rhythms. This IMF can be filtered by an adaptive line enhancement (ALE) algorithm. The superiority of using ALE to conventional filtering has been tested using simulated signals. Then, by applying Hilbert transform to several enhanced IMFs from different parts of the brain, the changes in linear and non linear synchronization levels are estimated for determination of the fatigue state.","PeriodicalId":171474,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116490065","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}

We describe the probabilistic hybrid automaton model typically used, and an algorithm based on particle filtering that can be applied to these models. Diagnosis provides some particular challenges for Monte Carlo approaches, including large dimensional state spaces, and low probability transitions in the Markov chain. We discuss these and some proposed solutions to them. Finally, we examine some open challenges for the Bayesian approach.","PeriodicalId":171474,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115935982","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}
