Currently, for mobile object localizing and tracking, Monte Carlo method has been practically proved a successful solution to solve these non-Gaussian, non-nonlinear and multi-dimensional systems. Recently, several Monte Carlo localization algorithms have been proposed for mobile sensor networks which point out a new direction for localization in sensor networks. However, these previous literatures generally use a fixed sample number in their Monte Carlo localization algorithms which is very inefficient and inappropriate to the low energy low computational capability sensors. In this paper, we introduce a sample adaptive Monte Carlo Localization algorithm (SAMCL) to improve the localization efficiency. Simulation results demonstrate that our method produces good localization accuracy as well as low computational cost compared with the previous Monte Carlo localization algorithms.","PeriodicalId":427564,"journal":{"name":"International Multi-Symposium of Computer and Computational Sciences","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127720919","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 tiring for a person to listen something for a long time, especially in adverse environments. An algorithm for speech-stream detection in noisy environments, based on the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and the statistical properties of higher-order cumulants of speech signals is presented. With the EMD, the noise signals can be decomposed into different numbers of IMFs. Then, the fourth-order cumulant (FOC) can be used to extract the desired feature of statistical properties for IMF components. Since the higher-order cumulants are blind for Gaussian signals, the proposed method is especially effective regarding the problem of speech-stream detection, where the speech signal is distorted, by Gaussian noise. Besides that, with the self-adaptive decomposition by the EMD, the proposed method can also work well for non-Gaussian noise. The experiments show that the proposed algorithm can suppress different noise types with different SNR, and the algorithm is robust in the real signal tests.","PeriodicalId":427564,"journal":{"name":"International Multi-Symposium of Computer and Computational Sciences","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131419160","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, network organization repair scheme is highly required for reliability. Because of the high energy efficiency requirement, the network organization repair scheme for WSNs differs from that for traditional networks. However, existing WSN network organization repair schemes are not energy efficient due to persistent listening, and may cause sensor nodes to fail to recover from network organization error situations. This paper proposes E-NORS, Energy-efficient Network Organization Repair Scheme, to overcome the high power consumption problem. E-NORS tries to restore the network organization on a duty cycle for energy conservation. A dynamic duty cycle adjustment mechanism is further presented in E-NORS to boost the repair speed in short time network organization error conditions. Evaluation results show that E-NORS can greatly prolong the lifetime of nodes in repairing the network organization, while maintaining a considerable repair speed.","PeriodicalId":427564,"journal":{"name":"International Multi-Symposium of Computer and Computational Sciences","volume":"148 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123405627","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 transmission rate of source is fuzzily adjusted based on the accumulated price acquired from the network. The control scheme leads to smooth response of the buffer occupancy as well as of the transmission rate.

An improved method is used for object detection and segmentation in real-world multiple-object scenes. It has two stages. In the first stage this method develops a novel technique to extract class-discriminative boundary fragments, and then boosting is used to select discriminative boundary fragments (weak detectors) toform a strong \"boundary-fragment-model\" (BFM) detector. A boundary fragment dictionary is built with those entire detectors. In the second stage, after edge detection, length filter is used to improve the match degree. To the end, a new fast cluster algorithm is used to deal with the centroid image. The generative aspect of the model is used to determine an approximate segmentation. In addition, we present an extensive evaluation of our method on a standard dataset and compare its performance to existing methods from the literature. As is shown in the experiment, our method outperforms previously published methods with the overlap part of the object in multiple-object scene.","PeriodicalId":427564,"journal":{"name":"International Multi-Symposium of Computer and Computational Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115218137","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}
