Voids beneath the rubble may allow victims to stay alive. However, chances of survival dramatically decrease following the initial 24 hours after a disaster occurs. Hence, first responders must act quickly to rescue live victims. The work presented showcases enhancements to an autonomous access hole detection system, considerably increasing its accuracy.","PeriodicalId":284183,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128620800","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}

By studying the state-of-the-art theoretical research and the real situation in Japan, a system based on the latest service computing and optimization is proposed. It integrates a former approach for static assignment to residents (Zhao et al., Optimal Assignment of Wide-Area Evacuation Centers for Kyoto City (Abstract), March 2017) and an ongoing project for dynamic assignment to evacuees including visitors. In both situations, a service (Google's Distance Matrix is used but others are possible as well) is employed to reduce the heavy cost for distance calculation and maintenance. For the dynamic assignment, a novel algorithm is proposed to optimize the number of requests to the service using preprocessing. Comparison against existing approaches shows that the proposed system is more practical for a rapid and effective response in case of a disaster.","PeriodicalId":284183,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC)","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116518450","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 repositories provide opportunities to design/improve decision-making systems by mining trends and patterns from the data set (that can provide credible information) to improve customer service (e.g., in healthcare). As a result, while data sharing is essential, it is an obligation to maintaining the privacy of the data donors as data custodians have legal and ethical responsibilities to secure confidentiality. This research proposes a 2-layer privacy preserving (2-LPP) data sanitization algorithm that satisfies ε-differential privacy for publishing sanitized data. The proposed algorithm also reduces the re-identification risk of the sanitized data. The proposed algorithm has been implemented, and tested with two different data sets. Compared to other existing works, the results obtained from the proposed algorithm show promising performance.","PeriodicalId":284183,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128882525","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}

Though integrating energy efficiency and sustainability can prove challenging, the fusion of both objectives is a critical step towards a green future. This paper focuses on building and transportation sectors which have the highest energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission in Ontario. The electricity sector is also considered because of its convergence with transportation and building sectors. Emerging technologies discussed in the paper utilize renewable sources and demonstrate higher efficiency resulting in lower GHG levels. The paper also highlights best practices from leading jurisdictions in building and transportation, intended to serve as an example for urban areas to follow. Use cases and economic considerations of key “game changers” in the electricity sector such as energy storage, micro-grids and direct current transmission and distribution are outlined. Electric utilities are increasingly gravitating to new/emerging technologies as well as non-wires solutions for greater efficiency and system needs. As buildings, transportation and electricity sectors converge, electricity system planners would need to take a broader approach of energy planning, considering other forms of energy from generation to delivery to utilization.","PeriodicalId":284183,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126811538","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 process of listening to the body is traditionally done using a Littmann stethoscope. Traditional stethoscopes are limited by inadequate sound amplification. Thus, if the sound of interest is of low amplitude, as is the case with biomedical sounds, detecting them is difficult. The electronic stethoscope (eStethoscope) platform is designed to facilitate doctors in the act of listening to body sounds. This is achieved by enhancing the functionality of traditional stethoscopes using electronic instrumentation. Additionally, using modern signal processing tools, the eStethoscope serves as a screening and monitoring aid to physicians and a learning aid for students. Preliminary results show that the signals acquired are distinguishable to have originated from their respective sources (heart, lung, and knee). The eStethoscope demonstrates the practicality of using low-cost instrumentation to obtain signal quality that is comparable to clinical grade signals, adding convenience to both the physician and the patient.","PeriodicalId":284183,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127010275","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}
