It is one of several approaches bases for developing noninvasive blood glucose meter. OCT systems offers advantages in signal to noise ratio, high resolution and good depth of penetration. The OCT technique is based on the measurement of changes induced by glucose in the optical properties of the dermis skin layer. Blood glucose concentration in the dermis layer of skin is correlated with OCT signal slope, which is obtained by the linear fit of OCT signal by averaging over the depth of a 2D OCT image. However, it takes find the area where the OCT signal is linear and undergoes minimal alterations. We use an algorithm to determine the useful range in the dermis used for highly efficient glucose monitoring.","PeriodicalId":174405,"journal":{"name":"2015 10th International Conference on Intelligent Systems: Theories and Applications (SITA)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134362418","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}

This field has some drawbacks, from one hand, it suffers from the high complexity to solve the classical model, on other hand, it causes a deterioration of some parts in the original image that we want to restore. In this context, we propose in this paper a modified model for image restoration based on the addition of a decision variable. This later controls the restoration in each pixel which is a helpful step to preserve areas that had a good quality. To solve the new model we propose the genetic algorithm which is more robust and suitable for this kind of optimization problem.","PeriodicalId":174405,"journal":{"name":"2015 10th International Conference on Intelligent Systems: Theories and Applications (SITA)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126376096","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}

On the one hand, students need to use metacognitive strategies to manage their learning, particularly when they have freedom to determine how they access and use a variety of on-line resources. On the other hand, ITS must includes relevant metacognitive and support activities by considering students' differences in skills, preferences and metacognitive needs. Finally, we propose a model for the development of metacognitive strategies in ITS. The system provides a set of tools and practices exploiting the Zimmerman cyclic model of self-regulated learning (SRL).","PeriodicalId":174405,"journal":{"name":"2015 10th International Conference on Intelligent Systems: Theories and Applications (SITA)","volume":"10 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128520646","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 consider that the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is composed by wireless static sensor nodes and several mobile ferries that collect information from all the sensors in the network. We have used a pure birth process to model the reliability aspect of the nodes in the network. We have considered several cases: with one ferry and N ferries moving in the same area. We have studied the impact of nodes density and the faulty rate occurrence to find the best and reliable path for the mobile ferry to cover all the nodes of the WSN.","PeriodicalId":174405,"journal":{"name":"2015 10th International Conference on Intelligent Systems: Theories and Applications (SITA)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133057126","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}
