This will also help the doctor in deciding the perfect medicine for the patient’s scars. Various Digital Image Processing techniques have been devised to solve this problem. Although use of soft computing based methods are very popular now in almost every area of work, lack of training data poses a big challenge. Thus, we have devised the method to solve the problem of identifying the scar, size of the scar, find the degree of burn or disease mapping the redness of the scar and finding the number of clusters of scars in an image purely by using basic image processing ways. This method is effective and computationally fast in the decision making process for the doctors.","PeriodicalId":184596,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125111182","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}

A lot of research has already been done in detection of free space in the frequency spectrum and the need of the hour is exploitation of a novel characteristic of a signal from a newer perspective. Cognitive radio works in a multi-antenna based system with a number of secondary user sensors wherein the signals from primary user is received from different directions. Thus, the angle dimension of the received signal can also be exploited to propose new sensing schemes. In this paper, a novel technique based on direction of arrival estimation has been augmented with wavelet packet decomposition to enhance the performance characteristics in case of closely-spaced DOA and low SNR. The proposed algorithm provides high resolution as well as significantly reduced computation load. The better performance and reliability of the proposed WDOA estimation have been experimentally validated and presented in form of computer simulations.","PeriodicalId":184596,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123738058","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}

It is demonstrated that by designing the pre-amplifier stage using composite cascode differential structure, in which some transistors operate in subthreshold/ weak inversion region, high-gain (79 dB) at low-power (412nW) and low input noise (111.4nV/sqrt(Hz)) with 1.5V power supply, can be obtained through this stage. The succeeding latch circuitry is designed to enhance the comparator speed and to kickback noise effect. The proposed latch comparator operates at a low power consumption of 32μW and has a propagation delay of 0.78 ns only.

Its protection against various faults is necessary to avoid catastrophic failures. The terminal behaviour of the transformer utters about its health. Thus, analysing the terminal behaviour is helpful in predicting condition of the transformer. In this paper, frequency response analysis (FRA) is deployed to capture terminal behaviour of the winding corresponding to its healthy and faulty states. The acquired FRA signals are supplied to the Daubechies Orthogonal Wavelet Filter Bank and are decomposed into various subbands (SBs). Afterwards, Log Energy (LE) feature is extracted corresponding to each decomposed subband. The extracted features are then classified using decision tree method. The proposed methodology is implemented on the equivalent circuit model of the transformer winding to classify its FRA signals into normal and faulty states. Result shows that the FRA signals are classified properly and accuracy of 98.3% is achieved. The statistical parameters clearly indicate the difference between healthy and faulty signals.","PeriodicalId":184596,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"460 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116450803","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}

Recent research has introduced Random Fourier feature maps (RFF) to project high dimensional data to low dimension. In this paper, we propose a nonlinear component analysis for the dimensionality reduction of HSI based on RFF maps. The proposed method has experimented on two dataset namely Pavia University and Salinas scene. It is verified that the feature extracted using RFF maps outperforms the conventional and kernel methods, in terms of classification accuracy.","PeriodicalId":184596,"journal":{"name":"2018 5th International Conference on Signal Processing and Integrated Networks (SPIN)","volume":"269 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131249524","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}
