The considered incubator has been offered by the neonatology center of the Universitary Hospital of Sfax; Tunisia. Two models has been identified. The first one is continuous and the second one is discrete. Parameters of these models have been optimised by genetic algorithms. Because of the non linearity of the model, two phases have been considered: the heating phase for an increasing of the temperature and the cooling phase for a decreasing of the temperature. Obtained models have been validated experimentally.","PeriodicalId":425823,"journal":{"name":"International Multi-Conference on Systems, Sygnals & Devices","volume":"29 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132394502","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 boundary discriminative noise detection (BDND) is shown to supersede existing algorithms especially under high noise densities. However, careful investigation of the filtering step in this algorithm reveals some problems that may affect the sharpness of the output image. In this paper, we propose two simple, yet effective modifications, to the filtering step in the BDND algorithm. The modifications loosen the condition on expanding the filtering window and incorporate the spatial information of pixels in the filtering operations. Experimental evaluation proved the effectiveness of the proposed modifications in producing sharper images than the BDND algorithm.","PeriodicalId":425823,"journal":{"name":"International Multi-Conference on Systems, Sygnals & Devices","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126369216","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 the use of the inverse function and simultaneously adjustment of both the weights of stages and coefficients of polynomials, linearity is achieved. The proposed ADC is designed and simulated in a 90-nm CMOS technology. Simulation results show that the ADC achieves a peak signal-to-noise-and-distortion ratio (SNDR) of 64 dB, a peak spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of 72.5 dB.

This Health Index estimation considers not only typical test results such as dissolved gas analysis (DGA), oil quality, furan, and power factor, but also other parameters such as frequency response analysis (FRA), turn ratio, tap changer and bushing condition, physical observations, load history, maintenance work orders, and In-Service age of transformer.

Depth and color image sequences generated by a single depth camera are used as system input. Depth image sequence is utilized for multi-user tracking. An eye localization algorithm of our previous work, which combines appearance and feature based methods using SVM classification to gain robustness, is adopted in this approach with optimizations. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method satisfy the requirements regarding multi-user eye tracking for autostereoscopic displays.
