Function approximation algorithms normally require sufficient amount of samples to approximate a function. However, insufficient samples may result in unsatisfactory prediction to any function approximation algorithms. It is due to the failure of the function approximation algorithms to fill the information gap between the available and very limited samples. In this study, a function approximation algorithm which is based on Nadaraya-Watson Kernel Regression (NWKR) is proposed for approximating a non-linear function with small samples. Gaussian function is chosen as a kernel function for this study. The results show that the NWKR is effective in the case where the target function is non-linear and the given training sample is small. The performance of the NWKR is compared with other existing function approximation algorithms, such as artificial neural network.","PeriodicalId":358023,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence, Communication Systems and Networks","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128745065","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}

As the number of arson and spillage becomes a common place, it becomes more important to have an accurate means of detecting and classifying gasoline found at such sites of incidence. However, currently only a very few number of classification models have been explored in this germane field of forensic science, particularly as relates to gasoline identification. In this work, we developed extreme learning machines (ELM) based identification model for identifying gasoline types. The model was constructed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) spectral data obtained from gasoline sold in Canada over one calendar year. Prediction accuracy of the model was evaluated and compared with earlier used methods on the same datasets. Empirical results from simulation showed that the proposed ELM based model achieved better performance compared to other earlier implemented techniques","PeriodicalId":358023,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence, Communication Systems and Networks","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126081425","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}

In contrast with GTSP, a gradient-based fixed-rated time synchronization protocol, our protocol provides adaptive beaconing for applications to optimize energy savings by selecting appropriate message-broadcast periods. The protocol is implemented and evaluated on multi-hop networks that consist of Telosb motes running TinyOS. The experimental results indicate that our protocol achieves a network-wide global notion of time, attains small synchronization errors, and utilizes energy efficiently.","PeriodicalId":358023,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence, Communication Systems and Networks","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130878703","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}

Path planning using robots draws the most attention when the planning environment is dangerous or inaccessible for human. In this paper a cellular automata based algorithm called SMPP (Straight Moving Path Planner) is presented for robot path planning problem. The advantage of this approach is that it prefers straight moves rather than zigzag steps. It is shown that how SMPP can help us finding a reasonable optimum path from the start point of the robot to the goal position in presence of obstacles. The proposed algorithm is then compared to the previous works done on the basis of cellular automata and the results are presented to validate the approach.","PeriodicalId":358023,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence, Communication Systems and Networks","volume":"799 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126954191","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}

NP (newscast protocol) has been used to generate the nodes (peers) randomly in the network, where nodes also maintain the properties of its neighboring nodes in a cache associated to each node. NP has proved to be the most efficient protocol to maintain the current state of the network.

EEG is decomposed by wavelet transform and coefficient sets are obtained. In this paper spectral entropy is applied to these coefficient sets for epileptic seizures detection. This process is applied to three different groups of EEG signals: 1) healthy states, 2) epileptic states during a seizure-free interval (interictal EEG), 3) epileptic states during a seizure (ictal EEG). At the end the statistical analysis is applied for distinguishing the coefficient sets. This statistical process can differentiate between ictal and healthy subject (with eyes close) of cD2 coefficients (15-30 Hz) with 99% p-value.","PeriodicalId":358023,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence, Communication Systems and Networks","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129649992","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}

Security remains a major challenge for these networks due their features of open medium, dynamically changing topologies, reliance on co-operative algorithms, absence of centralized monitoring points, and lack of clear lines of defense. In this paper, we present a cooperative, distributed intrusion detection architecture based on clustering of the nodes that addresses the security vulnerabilities of the network and facilitates accurate detection of attacks. The architecture is organized as a dynamic hierarchy in which the intrusion data is acquired by the nodes and is incrementally aggregated, reduced in volume and analyzed as it flows upwards to the cluster-head. The cluster-heads of adjacent clusters communicate with each other in case of cooperative intrusion detection. For intrusion related message communication, mobile agents are used for their efficiency in lightweight computation and suitability in cooperative intrusion detection. Simulation results show effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed architecture.","PeriodicalId":358023,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd International Conference on Computational Intelligence, Communication Systems and Networks","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127172449","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}

In order to improve the standard ANN classifier prediction performance, this paper focuses on optimizing the decision boundary of the step function at the output layer of ANN using particle swarm optimization (PSO). A feedforward ANN is chosen in this study. Firstly, a conventional back propagation algorithm is employed to train the ANN. PSO is then applied to train the real predicted output of training data from this trained network. As the result, the optimum value of decision boundary is found and applied to the classifier. Prediction performance is assessed by G-mean, which is a measure to indicate the efficiency of classifiers for imbalanced data sets.
