However, this densification leads to increase total energy consumption of the network. One way to save energy is to switch off some underutilized cells during low traffic periods. In order to address this problem, we propose dynamic switch off cell scheme based on the genetic algorithm to optimize and improve the energy efficiency by considering diverse parameters for each small cell in the decision process such as: the load traffic of the cell, load traffic of neighboring cells and the coverage provided by the multiple interfering small cells. The simulation result showed that our approach allows to save up to 10.87% more energy of total network energy consumption.","PeriodicalId":259951,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Signal and Image Processing (ATSIP)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126710198","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}

These systems employ vehicle mounted cameras to identify traffic signs while driving on the road. Their primary function is to inform the driver of recent traffic signs that may have been missed due to distraction or inattentiveness. In this work, a new method for road sign detection and recognition is proposed. The proposed approach is divided into three stages: first, a color segmentation method is used to extract regions of interest (ROIs). Then, we refer to polygonal approximation technique to detect triangular, rectangular, and circular shapes. The last stage aims at recognizing the detected signs using a new designed feature and SVM classifier. The proposed approach was tested on two publicly available datasets, and the results obtained are satisfying compared to the state-of-the-art methods.","PeriodicalId":259951,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Signal and Image Processing (ATSIP)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127580435","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}

For EP approach, two methods are presented for wind speed estimation: scatterometry and model without wind direction input. For EM approach, the approximation models, i.e. small-slope approximation (SSA) and resonant curvature approximation (RCA), are presented since they can calculate radar backscattering close to that given by the EP models. The comparison between EP and EM models demonstrate that estimated wind speeds by two approaches are quite similar, especially for radar incidence angles below 40°.","PeriodicalId":259951,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Signal and Image Processing (ATSIP)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128543177","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}

Firstly, in the preprocessing step, Histogram Equalization (HE) is applied on all the 3D SPECT image data. Secondly, HE is applied on the so-called non-specific (NS) region, as reference region. Then, the normalized images are modelled using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Thus, for each subject, its scan is represented by a few components. These resulting features will be used for the classification task. The proposed system has been tested on a 269 image database from the Parkinson Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI). Classification rate of 92.63% is achieved, which has proved the robustness and the productiveness of the proposed CAD system in PD pattern detection. In addition, the PCA based feature extraction approach significantly improves the baseline Voxels-as-Features (VAF) method, used as an approximation of the visual analysis.
