Consequently, Super Resolution Reconstruction (SRR) algorithm, which espouses algebraic formulation to obtain HR with reasonable cost, has been one of the most compelling research fields in Computer Vision (CV) and digital image processing (DIP). For enlarging up to 16× spatial resolution, this paper proposes a novel resolution enhancement established on cooperation of MSRR (Multi-frame Super Resolution Reconstruction) method and SSRR (Single-frame Super Resolution Reconstruction) method. First, to maintain the edges while get rid of the noise, a set of perverted images with low spatial resolution (so called LR) are used to reconstruct the better quality image with 4× spatial resolution magnification rate by using the MSRR method established on an iterative Tukey's Biweight regularized ML (Maximum Likelihood) technique. Later, this 4× image is used to reconstruct the 16× spatial resolution image by using SSRR method established the high-spectrum pre-determining. The verification results of numerical measurement (in PSNR) and visual measurement illustrate that the proposed resolution enhancement is successful for enlarging up to 16× spatial resolution and getting rid of the noise.","PeriodicalId":273911,"journal":{"name":"2017 14th International Conference on Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Technology (ECTI-CON)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115901568","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 M/M/1/K queuing model is adopted for analyzing the averaged throughput and delay. The optimization algorithm based on a minimum hop count approach with the acceptable averaged throughput and delay constraints, and the optimal DCU localization methodology are proposed. Specifically, the optimal location algorithm will determine the optimal location for DCU by using the principle of minimum hop count first. If there are multiple locations achieving the minimum hop count and constraints, the averaged received signal strength for the 1st-hop tier will be used as the additional performance metric to select the ultimately optimal location, in which the optimal location achieving the maximum averaged received signal strength will be selected. Hence, the system reliability and performance will be maximized. From the simulation results, it is obvious that the proposed methodology is significantly effective, in which the optimal location for DCU yielding the acceptable averaged throughput and delay with the maximum received signal strength is achieved.","PeriodicalId":273911,"journal":{"name":"2017 14th International Conference on Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Technology (ECTI-CON)","volume":"157 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114489687","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}

They are usually used for two purposes, i.e. realtime traffic monitoring and archived events searching. For the latter purpose, the traffic surveillance systems can be used for police officers' benefits, such as vehicle identification in specific events including stolen vehicles or hit-and-run cases. In such circumstances, the officers are required to identify the vehicle in archived videos according to its appearances. This task is usually accomplished manually through visual perception. The problems arise from this approach Even though this approach results in good accuracy, it is time consuming and prone to error due to human fatigue for long duration videos. In order to solve these problems, a tree based vehicle classification system is proposed. This system consists of three modules, i.e. feature extraction, classification, and search manager. The feature extraction module is used for image and video processing. It extracts the desired features to be used further in the classification module. The classification module uses these features and results in pre-defined vehicle classes. The classification results are stored in the search manager module for further filtering according to user's query command. This paper focuses on the classification module. There are two features designed to be used in the proposed classification module, i.e. types and colors. Vehicles are classified into four classes of type and seven classes of color. Several tree based algorithms are applied to the dataset. The experimental results show that all the algorithms are comparable. However, the highest accuracy for type and color classification are obtained by using decision tree and bagged decision tree, respectively.","PeriodicalId":273911,"journal":{"name":"2017 14th International Conference on Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Technology (ECTI-CON)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128703505","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}

Players of MOBA games usually practice their game skills by playing with a bot. As creating a bot is difficult and rather complex, therefore this paper proposes an idea to develop a distributed simulation system for training game coding and testing game codes by displaying results in a mini map (2-D map). A MOBA game API is also provided for cooperating with the simulation software and so is software supporting many users for their bot programming. In addition, users can use this software to test their bot codes or to practice bot programming in a unique style launched by their own idea and to see the results from the monitor. The software can also introduce a playing plan from the code that the user has already programmed.","PeriodicalId":273911,"journal":{"name":"2017 14th International Conference on Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Technology (ECTI-CON)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128272762","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 also enhances the well-being of the people with more increased average electrical power generation and consumption of the country.

Responding to the reduction of wasteful energy consumption of household to reduce next monthly bill is also different too. In this research, we are finding appropriateness of energy consumption reduction in home which does not over-affect users. We consider the reacting behavior of the users when notified with exceeding consumption signal. This paper is presented, using the power consumption data simulation in one month as basis data. In the following month, we use those basis data as a criterion to control the consumption every period of 15 minutes. We assumed that user expects to discount the amount of the energy consumption targets at 10%, 15% and 20%, and the reacting behavior of the user at 5%, 10 % and 15% when power consumption is over the limit. The simulated power consumption data cause the first monthly fee at 1,537 baht.
