These data can be of great benefit, especially in demand response applications. In this paper, a multi-label classification for NILM based on a two-input gated recurrent unit (GRU) is presented. Since the presented method is designed with a multi-label approach, great savings in training time are achieved. While a separate model is trained for each appliance in the literature, only one model is trained in the proposed model. Besides, the model was trained using two different inputs. The first is the total active power value consumed by the whole house. The second input is the Spikes obtained by analyzing this active power consumption. Simply put, spikes are obtained by analyzing the instant power changes in active power. Both inputs are evaluated with a convolutional layer and necessary features are extracted. Obtained features are fed into the GRU to be able to analyze time-dependent changes. The simulation results show that an additional input can slightly improve the analysis accuracy. Besides, it was found that the second input is useful especially in the analysis of short-term devices.","PeriodicalId":6731,"journal":{"name":"2020 Zooming Innovation in Consumer Technologies Conference (ZINC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"259-263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88935894","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 combination of pattern was made for the variation of the fridge using Predicate Argument Structure (PAS) analysis, whereas the combination of pattern with the relation between words was by forming Sub Tree (ST) and Subset Tree (SST) from parsing tree. The result of forming a combination of these patterns was then selected to obtain an appropriate answer.

Naturally, one of the essential tasks for autonomous vehicle would be to detect lane lines. Except for using them as constant reference in steering controller, they are used as inputs in other driver assistance functions like lane departure warning, for example. Different road and weather conditions make it difficult to detect lane lines, as marking can become indistinct or disappear. Many simple vision-based algorithms rely on detection of edges of the markings with Canny edge detection and previously mentioned problems can affect proper extrapolation of lanes. This paper also belongs to vision-based group of algorithms that use camera. It presents usage of color thresholding to detect lane edges and together with perspective transformations and Hough transform to extrapolate lane segments in image with controlled conditions. These conditions include straight road and sunny weather. We used OpenCV computer vision framework that supports mentioned functionalities and algorithms, with Python, to obtain and compare results.","PeriodicalId":6731,"journal":{"name":"2020 Zooming Innovation in Consumer Technologies Conference (ZINC)","volume":"8 1","pages":"174-177"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90043330","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 work, we present a new key expansion algorithm which improves the resistance against timing and simple power analysis attacks. Furthermore, we consider a new concept for calculating the point multiplication, where the points of the curve are represented as Gaussian integers. Gaussian integers are subset of the complex numbers, such that the real and imaginary parts are integers. Since Gaussian integer fields are isomorphic to prime fields, this concept is suitable for many elliptic curves. Representing the key by a Gaussian integer expansion is beneficial to reduce the computational complexity and the memory requirements of a secure hardware implementation.","PeriodicalId":6731,"journal":{"name":"2020 Zooming Innovation in Consumer Technologies Conference (ZINC)","volume":"109 1","pages":"231-236"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79592023","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}

Hence, embedded systems can benefit from hardware assistance, i.e., coprocessors optimized for the required public key operations. In this work, we propose an elliptic curve cryptographic coprocessors design for resource-constrained systems. Many such coprocessor designs consider only special (Solinas) prime fields, which enable a low-complexity modulo arithmetic. Other implementations support arbitrary prime curves using the Montgomery reduction. These implementations typically require more time for the point multiplication. We present a coprocessor design that has low area requirements and enables a trade-off between performance and flexibility. The point multiplication can be performed either using a fast arithmetic based on Solinas primes or using a slower, but flexible Montgomery modular arithmetic.","PeriodicalId":6731,"journal":{"name":"2020 Zooming Innovation in Consumer Technologies Conference (ZINC)","volume":"16 1","pages":"313-318"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75888369","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}

After the pre-processing, new bands are obtained by averaging the 5, 25 and 125 bands in the dataset. The obtained bands are combined and features extracted. The multi-band dataset is transformed into a single-band feature matrix. Classification is made by adding class labels to the feature matrix.
