First we selectively penalize the level set function to be binary and then use a Gaussian smoothing kernel to regularize it. The advantages of our method is a new region based signed pressure force(SPF) function is proposed, which can step effectively the contour at weak or blurred edges and automatically detect the interior and exterior boundaries with the initial contour being any where in the images effected with noise. The proposed method can implement by the simple finite difference scheme. Experiments on satellite images with noise demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method over the Chan-Vase (CV) active contour in terms of the number of Iterations.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"49 10-11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131864468","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}

Therefore, most traffic flows in WSNs are to and from the sensor node and base station of the networks without wired connection. Power consumption is one of the most important issue in the sensor network. Energy constraints have a significant impact on the design and operation of wireless sensor networks. This paper describes a mathematical model for the power consumption of mobile node in wireless sensor networks. A wireless sensor network having multiple BSs (data sink nodes)and mobile nodes are considered. Each source node must send all its locally generated data to the other nodes and vice -versa. To maximize mobile node's lifetime, it is essential to have optimum monitored region and radio range of each source node of WSNs. To find an optimal solution a mathematical model, which is proposed for optimal power consumption in terms of ratio of whole energy of sensor nodes to energy consumption speed of sensor nodes in any area should be constant. Through extensive simulation of the model we achieved the results of the model which is shown below and implies that this model has excellent performance and provides a near-optimal solution.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131992808","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 need for accurate machining of these composites has also increased enormously. Despite the recent developments in the near net shape manufacture, composite parts often require post-mold machining to meet dimensional tolerances, surface quality and other functional requirements. In general 70% of the components need machining to attain the final shape. In the present work, the tool wear has been studied in this paper by turning the composite bars using HSS and Carbide tools. The paper presents the results of experimental investigation machinability properties of silicon carbide particle (SiC-p) reinforced aluminum metal matrix composite. The effect of machining parameters, e.g. cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut on tool wear and surface roughness was studied. Machinability properties of the selected material were studied using HSS and Carbide tool material; surface roughness was generally affected by feed rate and cutting speed. Hence the tool wear were measured at different speed and feed conditions. Experimental data collected are tested with Multiple Regression Analysis. On completion of the experimental test, multiple regression analysis is used to predict the wear behavior of the system under any condition within the operating range.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115564389","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}

A common storage space known as bulletin board is used to store the queue length of the output interface buffer. Bulletin board is updated on a regular interval basis and new arrival verifies the queue length of the bulletin board instead of the output interface buffer. The assumption of our model are: packets arrive as a Poisson stream of rate λ1 for data and λ2 for voice. Packets are served according to FIFO and the service time for a packet is exponentially distributed with mean 1. The Partial Buffer Sharing scheme is applied to partition the output buffer between voice and data packets. The growth of voice buffer is bounded so that queueing delay is restricted for voice packets. Data packet can take their space if the allocated voice packet buffer is unused on an arrival of data packet. But voice packets are prohibited to take the space of unused allocated data packets. The bulletin board fetches the output queue length evolution on a regular interval basis. The model provides an abstraction of simple load balancing scheme in setting when to split the traffic and send it over another path. This model estimates the bandwidth usage on a local granularity basis instead of running periodic probe messages to estimate the bandwidth between two nodes.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114684723","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 Base Station analyzes information and initiates suitable response if required. The complexities introduced by severely limited processing capabilities, memory and power supply in the sensor node at one end and the design needs of versatile applications at the other end have forced researchers to dissect the layered protocol design process. As a result cross layer approaches which attempt to exploit a richer interaction among communication layers to achieve performance gains have emerged. Cross-layer interactions offer the possibility of dealing with the special properties of Wireless Sensor Network that cannot be handled well by layered architectures. For example, this can be handling the variations in link quality or adjusting the radio strength, which influences the transmission range, the number of collisions, and energy consumption. These parameters can further be used as routing metrics at Network Layer for efficient routing. This paper surveys cross layer architectures, presents performance benchmarking for the architectures and finally compares them on the basis of the introduced benchmarks.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117290109","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 space and time requirements of this method are O(n2), where n is the data set size. The paper proposes a two stage hybrid approach to speed-up the kernel k-means clustering method. In the first stage, the data set is divided in to a number of group-lets by employing a fast clustering method called leaders clustering method. Each group-let is represented by a prototype called its leader. The set of leaders, which depends on a threshold parameter, can be derived in O(n) time. The paper presents a modification to the leaders clustering method where group-lets are found in the kernel space (not in the input space), but are represented by leaders in the input space. In the second stage, kernel k-means clustering method is applied with the set of leaders to derive a partition of the set of leaders. Finally, each leader is replaced by its group to get a partition of the data set. The proposed method has time complexity of O(n+p2), where p is the leaders set size. Its space complexity is also O(n+p2). The proposed method can be easily implemented. Experimental results shows that, with a small loss of quality, the proposed method can significantly reduce the time taken than the conventional kernel k-means clustering method.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114077663","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 key issue in dealing with this disease is early detection of its presence or progression, with the rapid initiation or advancement of appropriate treatment. Quantitative analysis of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) via image processing of fundus images plays a major role in its early detection. The disease is characterized by the progressive degeneration of optic nerve fibers showing a distinct image of the optic nerve head. Glaucoma leads to (i) structural changes of the optic nerve head (ONH) and the nerve fiber layer and (ii) a simultaneous functional failure of the visual field. This work aims to develop a system which will recognize the presence of glaucoma by the changes in the fundus image of an eye of a person and automatically quantify the RNFL defect using image processing techniques which aids in the diagnosis of glaucoma disease. Input image of the system will be the fundus image of an eye saved in bitmap or JPEG format or a real time one. Results show that the performance of our system is appreciable with the clinical diagnosis. In the future, the system can provide a first low-priced glaucoma indication in order to possibly reduce the amount of false positives misrouted to the cost-intensive elaborate clinical investigations.","PeriodicalId":394515,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE Recent Advances in Intelligent Computational Systems","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129521781","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}
