In particular, a secondary base station (SB) selects one of available antennas to transmit its data to a secondary user (SU) that randomly appears in radio range of the SB. In the first proposed scheme (named RAND), the SB randomly selects one antenna to serve the SU. In the second proposed method (named MAXP), the antenna with maximum transmit power will be used to transmit the data. In the third proposal scheme, an optimal TAS method is proposed to maximize the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the SB-SU links. For performance evaluation, we derive exact and asymptotic closed-form expressions of average outage probability (AOP) for the proposed protocols over Rayleigh fading channel. Monte-Carlo simulations are then performed to verify the theoretical results.","PeriodicalId":347057,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd National Foundation for Science and Technology Development Conference on Information and Computer Science (NICS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133098781","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}

Several testing software are applied weighted questions but they depend on the sentiment of teachers. The modern testing theories nowadays are built on a mathematical model which can calculate the latent trait of students. The Rasch model is the probability model which promotes interaction between an item and a student. We have constructed a system to estimate students' ability basing on Item Response Theory (IRT) and applying K-Means to classify student ranking. In this paper we present a model to categorize students' levels and compare them to traditional assessment methods. The results indicate that the methods we proposed have shown some significant improvement and they could be effectively applied for other tutoring systems. The result is also meaningful in customizing content and testing ways. Beside, the research is a guide line for teachers or test makers to give other testing approaches for various examinations.","PeriodicalId":347057,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd National Foundation for Science and Technology Development Conference on Information and Computer Science (NICS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129344050","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 main difficulty lies in the fact that the primal form of the optimization problem behind minimal enclosing ball is not convex and hence a convergence to a global minima with a good convergence rate is not guaranteed in theory. We address this issue by transforming the problem of finding a minimal enclosing ball to that of finding a largest margin hyperplane in the extended space. We validate the proposed method on several benchmark datasets. The experimental results point out that our proposed method gains higher testing accuracy while simultaneously achieving a significantly computational speedup.","PeriodicalId":347057,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd National Foundation for Science and Technology Development Conference on Information and Computer Science (NICS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127186308","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}

Various MIMO configurations based on Single-User (SU)-MIMO, Multi-User (MU)-MIMO, network-MIMO architectures have been proposed for LTE systems. To accommodate the ever-increasing demands of different multimedia services and applications, the evolving next-generation wireless access networks are envisioned to support 1,000-fold gains in capacity, connections for billions of diverse devices, and Gb/s individual user data rates. Massive MIMO has emerged as a promising technology to deal with such challenges. Through the use of an excessively large number of service antennas in a fully coherent and adaptive operation, transmission and reception of signal energy can be focused into small regions to offer large improvements in throughput and energy efficiency, especially when combined with multi-user scheduling and in mmWave bands. Furthermore, massive MIMO can enhance the robustness to interference and intentional jamming. The talk will provide an overview from MIMO, SU-MIMO, MU-MIMO, network-MIMO to massive MIMO developments applicable to next-generation wireless access communications, and highlight various technical issues and solutions.","PeriodicalId":347057,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd National Foundation for Science and Technology Development Conference on Information and Computer Science (NICS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127170984","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}

And the energy efficient multiple-pair communication in Massive MIMO relay network through the precoding at both sources and relay is addressed. It is shown that, given the channel state information at the source nodes and the relay, the zero-forcing precoding at all source nodes, the zero-forcing reception and zero-forcing transmission (ZFR/ZFT) or the zero-forcing reception and maximum ratio transmission (ZFR/MRT) at relay can be employed to mitigate inter-pair interference. The asymptotical analysis shows that, the required transmit power at relay can be made inversely proportional to the number of relay antennas without sacrificing the achieved energy efficiency. And the optimal power allocation problem is further formulated to address the power allocation design at all source nodes and the relay according to the large-scale fading for a better energy efficiency, when fulfilling some predefined sum rate performance requirements.","PeriodicalId":347057,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd National Foundation for Science and Technology Development Conference on Information and Computer Science (NICS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124936899","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}

Due to the particular advantages of triangular parametric surfaces, they have wide application and prospect in computer aided design and reverse engineering. The interpolation or approximation problem for reconstructing an arbitrary topological parametric surface from scattered data points or polygonal mesh is one of the significant research areas. This paper deals with the approximation of triangular B-spline surfaces based on a local geometric fitting algorithm and an inverse Loop subdivision scheme. The reconstructed triangular B-spline with the low degree crosses through most of the given data points of an initial triangular mesh. The accuracy of the obtained triangular B-spline surfaces can be carried out by changing the position of control points in the local geometric algorithm as well as a number of the inverse subdivision times. Finally, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method with some experimental examples.","PeriodicalId":347057,"journal":{"name":"2016 3rd National Foundation for Science and Technology Development Conference on Information and Computer Science (NICS)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124475128","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}
