Many smart home appliances also address the aspects of safety and electricity savings by automatically powering themselves off after not being used for a while. However, many devices remain in a typical household that are not themselves “smart”, or are not primarily electric (such as heating systems). We address the savings aspect by identifying processes involving the use of multiple devices in the electrical flow data, as captured by a smart meter in a modern household, rather than focusing on a single appliance. Therefore, we introduce a novel approach to usage pattern analysis based on the idea that a pattern of device usages as a result of a resident's ‘routine’ (such as making breakfast) can be interpreted similarly to a natural language ‘sentence’; Natural Language Processing (NLP) algorithms can then be used for interpreting the residents' behavior. We introduce the notion of bag-oj-devices (BoD), derived from the bag-of-words model used in document classification. In an experiment, we show how we use this model to infer predictions about the inhabitants from device usage, such as the resident leaving for the day or just to fetch the newspaper.","PeriodicalId":422269,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Smart Internet of Things (SmartIoT)","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122717931","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 is concluded that the intelligent systems were implemented with the aim of improving the management and control of transportation, through the new experience of traveling in these units allowing an important advantage for passengers. In the studies reviewed, the effectiveness of having accurate information regarding the route, stations, trunk lines and, above all, reducing obstacles and collisions due to drivers' lack of attention is exposed.

Then a multi-robot collaborative hunting strategy called Mobile Prediction Collaborative Interception (MPCI) is proposed based on the robot potential field model. The Adaptive Artificial Potential Field (AAPF) and the constraints are proposed to improve the MPCI to solve the three main problems of Target Loss, Target Unreachable, and Following Deadlock in the hunting process. On this basis, AAPF-MPCI collaborative hunting algorithm is proposed to improve the efficiency and stability of the system.

This paper proposes a lane-changing strategy of vehicles at the exit of roundabout based on the Vehicle Profile(VP) which achieved by the driving characteristics of vehicles in traffic roundabout. Initially, Vehicle Profile(VP) is defined due to the hybrid problem of multi-source heterogeneous data existing in ICVs, then the multi-source heterogeneous data is represented by VP. Moreover, the random forest algorithm is used to dynamically obtain and update the label weight of Vehicle Profile because of the problem of label weight existing in the practical application. In addition, the dynamic weight of the Vehicle Profile is introduced into the design of the vehicle payoff function involved in lane change decision, which solves the problem that the weight of each part of the payoff function is used as a parameter. Finally, the performance of the algorithm is tested and verified by SUMO in roundabout general traffic conditions, congested traffic conditions and sparse traffic conditions. The experimental results show that this algorithm can improve the Efficiency and comfort of vehicle driving in general traffic environment more greatly compared with the situation of traffic congestion and sparse traffic flow. Meanwhile, this algorithm verifies the optimization effect of introducing Vehicle Profile on roundabout traffic strategy.","PeriodicalId":422269,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Smart Internet of Things (SmartIoT)","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127304305","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 this paper, we propose a federated DRL-based request scheduling algorithm for distributed microgrid cluster scenarios with the goal of maximizing the long-term utility of the system. In addition, we prune the DRL model to make it more applicable to resource-constrained edge nodes. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has more stable performance and better adaptability to the dynamic system environment compared to the traditional centralized training.

Monitoring light pollution can help inform local communities on its impact on their environment, especially nocturnal plants and animals, such as sea turtles. However, existing systems for light pollution monitoring are expensive, non-scalable, and uni-directional, while others are inaccurate and cannot be deployed at a large scale. In this paper, we propose a modular IoT sensor platform called Pasteables with reconfigurable and easily replaceable components. We tailor this sensor platform to use many of the sensors related to monitoring light pollution. It builds upon our previous work that shares the idea of a generic modular sensing platform [1]. Unlike the previous work, we created new designs for the Components for Uniform Interface (CUI) with sensors, including light sensor, temperature/pressure sensor, and GPS. We fabricated PCB proto-types of this Pasteables platform using FR-4 material and surface mount components. Each CUI connects to the base pad using edge connectors to make the CUIs reconfigurable during installation. With these prototypes, we evaluated its responsiveness and sensitivity at two different locations of varying heights for the light source against the least expensive existing solution.","PeriodicalId":422269,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Conference on Smart Internet of Things (SmartIoT)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133380320","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}
