The negative effects are related to health problems such as Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) etc. Prolonged use of computers would lead to a significant reduction of spontaneous eye blink rate due to the high visual demand of the screen and concentration on the work. The proposed system develops a prototype using blink as a solution to prevent CVS. The first part of the work captures video frames using web-camera mounted on the computer or laptop. These frames are processed dynamically by cropping only the eyes. The algorithms performed on the eye-frames are direct pixel count, gradient. Canny edge and Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG). These determine the eye-status based on the threshold value and the proposed idea, the difference between upper and lower eye frames. Various experiments are done and their algorithms are compared and concluded that the proposed algorithm yields 99.95% accuracy.","PeriodicalId":269595,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Computer, Communication and Signal Processing (ICCCSP)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123955518","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}

Each day, along with the new technology comes a load of vulnerabilities waiting to be exploited. IoT (Internet of Things) is the latest trend and like all technology, it is open for exploitation. The most common attack which is used to bring down a whole network, without even finding a loophole in the security — DoS can be used to pull down any IoT network as well. In this paper, we propose a honeypot model for mitigating DoS attacks launched on IoT devices. Honeypots are commonly used in online servers as a decoy to the main server so that the attack is mitigated to the decoy instead of the main server. Here a similar methodology is used to avoid the whole IoT system from being shut down due to a DoS attack.","PeriodicalId":269595,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Computer, Communication and Signal Processing (ICCCSP)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122737895","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}

When there is disturbance in vocal cord function, there is notable change in source characteristic. Despite the technological advances in the medical field, the voice pathologists use endoscopic methods to view the vocal cord flap movements for patients with infections and disturbances in vocal cords which are painful. This work is an alternative for classifying pathological voice from normal voice by evaluating the jitter and shimmer variations in the speech signal of an affected person. When there is any distortion in voice, it is reflected in the source characteristics. Pitch being the fundamental source characteristic, analyzing pitch helps us classify pathological voice from normal voice. Jitter and shimmer are derived characteristics of pitch. The glottal closure instants are better representatives of source compared to pitch. In this work, we have explored using the glottal closure instants to calculate the jitter, shimmer and other speech parameters instead of the pitch period. Analyzing these jitter and shimmer parameters for various pathological voices and normal voices help us to classify them. Experiments were carried out using a database containing normal and pathological voices. An accuracy of 85% was achieved for normal-pathological voice classification.","PeriodicalId":269595,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Computer, Communication and Signal Processing (ICCCSP)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115026679","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}

Microstrip patch antenna is one such type that satisfies the above requirement. But the two main factors of an antenna namely the gain and the bandwidth are low for patch antennas. Usually the gain range of patch antenna is 1–2dB. The most straightforward way of increasing these factors involves the use of low dielectric substrate with increased thickness, but this inevitably leads to surface wave generation. As a result, sensible substrate thickness has to be employed. This paper presents pentagon shape patch antenna with probe feed for three different dimensions. The analysis is done using Ansoft HFSS software version 15.0. The performance parameters such as bandwidth, gain and return loss of the proposed antennas are compared.","PeriodicalId":269595,"journal":{"name":"2017 International Conference on Computer, Communication and Signal Processing (ICCCSP)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117109537","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}
