The core idea is to endow the system with enough intelligence to monitor continuously all aspects of the changing environments and resources, and to control management decisions according to high-level policies. For several years, great efforts have been devoted to the study of system performance, security, and fault management issues, but without much attention paid to self-adaptive social-collaborative system development. This may be because it is difficult to create such autonomic systems, which must sense and adapt to ongoing social context changes and support cyber-physical collaborations with minimal human involvement. These collaborations will have interactions between human and non-human entities that need to be self-managing with adaptive goals. This paper tackles the problem by introducing a new Generic Autonomic Social-Collaborative Framework (GASCF). It focuses on a high-level social-context based self-adaptive system, and its use of intelligent agents called autonomic adapters(AAs) that are driven by predefined policies. The paper describes the architecture of autonomic adapters and the general representation of policies. It explores the effectiveness of the approach by applying it to a large-scale collaborative healthcare service called GRaCE (https://www.egrist.org/) that supports mental-health within the United Kingdom National Health Service and other organisations.","PeriodicalId":184662,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Computer Vision (ISCV)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116825537","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 paper includes a brief motivation with reference to the state-of-the-art in face-related image analysis. The proposed algorithm uses a clipped-ellipsoid head model and 3D head pose recovery by joint alignment of paired templates based on dense-HOG features. In the algorithm, template pairs are dynamically extracted and a limited number of template pairs are stored and re-used for drift reduction. We report experimental results on real-life videos of infants in bed in a hospital, captured in visual light as well as near-infrared light. Results show consistently good tracking behavior. For challenging video sequences, the mean tracking error in terms of endocanthion location error relative to the innercanthal distance remains below 30%. This error has proven to be sufficiently low for 3D head tracking to support infant face analysis. For this reason, the proposed algorithm is used successfully in an infant monitoring system under development.","PeriodicalId":184662,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Computer Vision (ISCV)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130479276","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 basic array antenna, designed on low cost substrate FR-4 and fed by microstrip technique, consists of 8 patches and operates at frequency 3GHz. However, this structure has two disadvantages a low gain value by dint of using a lossy material FR4 as a substrate, and a narrow bandwidth which is due to microstrip antenna limitations. Hence, the objective of this work is to increase the gain and the bandwidth of this structure. Therefore two techniques will be proposed separately in this paper: parasitic patches and multi layer substrate. For the first one, it consists of adding a defined number of parasitic patches, the distance between driven and parasitic patches will be evaluated to ensure strong coupling between them. For the second technique, a second layer of FR4 coated with an annealed copper of 0.035mm is added to the substrate. An air gap of 0.04x is used to separate between both FR-4 layers. The design and simulation of the array antenna and the modified structures will be performed using Advanced Design System (ADS) software. Simulation results of each technique will be compared first to basic array antenna simulation results and compared thereafter to each other.","PeriodicalId":184662,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Computer Vision (ISCV)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127891340","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}

However, with the increased number of vehicles in urban areas these algorithms may have reached their limitation due to the huge increase in the state space in a limited computing power and memory environment. In this research we will introduce a dynamic routing system for traffic in intersections based on real-time traffic conditions such as individual vehicle speed, destination and traffic light status to provide the fasted path between a source and a target point. This system will exploit the recent advancements in the field of machine learning by leveraging the power of deep learning especially deep convolutional neural networks. Simulation shows that the proposed model results in a path that are generally fast and avoids frequent red light stops.","PeriodicalId":184662,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Computer Vision (ISCV)","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117126910","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}

Last researches has turned to more natural interaction systems like gestural human machine interfaces. Recent works are attempting to solve the problem of hand gestures recognition using machine learning methods. Some of them are pretending to achieve very high performance. However, few of them are taking into account mandatory requirements to apply the workflow of a learning model, mainly data unbalance, model selection and generalization performance metric choice. In this work, we proposed a machine learning method for real time recognition of 16 gestures of user hands using the Kinect sensor that respects such requirements. The recognition is triggered only when there is a moving hand gesture. The method is based on the training of a Support Vector Machine model on hand depth data from which bag of words of SIFT and SURF descriptors are extracted. The data was kept balanced and the model kernel and parameters were selected using cross validation procedure. The method achieved 98% overall performance using the area under the ROC curve measure.","PeriodicalId":184662,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Intelligent Systems and Computer Vision (ISCV)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131891368","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}
