A Time-Aware Routing Map for Indoor Evacuation

  • Haifeng Zhao and
  • Stephan Winter

18 January 2016

Knowledge of dynamic environments expires over time. Thus, using static maps of the environment for decision making is problematic, especially in emergency situations, such as evacuations. This paper suggests a fading memory model for mapping dynamic...

  • Liguo Fei,
  • Bingyi Kang and
  • Yong Deng

18 January 2016

Sensor data fusion plays an important role in fault diagnosis. Dempster–Shafer (D-R) evidence theory is widely used in fault diagnosis, since it is efficient to combine evidence from different sensors. However, under the situation where the evidence...

The Effect of Personalization on Smartphone-Based Fall Detectors

  • Carlos Medrano,
  • Inmaculada Plaza,
  • Raúl Igual,
  • Ángel Sánchez and
  • Manuel Castro

18 January 2016

The risk of falling is high among different groups of people, such as older people, individuals with Parkinson's disease or patients in neuro-rehabilitation units. Developing robust fall detectors is important for acting promptly in case of a fall. T...

Compensation Method of Natural Head Movement for Gaze Tracking System Using an Ultrasonic Sensor for Distance Measurement

  • Dongwook Jung,
  • Jong Man Lee,
  • Su Yeong Gwon,
  • Weiyuan Pan,
  • Hyeon Chang Lee,
  • Kang Ryoung Park and
  • Hyun-Cheol Kim
