Road transportation is the backbone of modern economies, albeit it annually costs 1.25 million deaths and trillions of dollars to the global economy, and damages public health and the environment. Deep learning is among the leading-edge metho...

Angular displacement sensor with shared magnetic field has strong environmental adaptability and high measurement accuracy. However, its 3-D structure is multi-pole double-layer structure, using time stepping finite element method (TSFEM) to optimize...

Mercury ion selective membrane (Hg-ISM) coated extended gate Field Effect transistors (ISM-FET) were used to manifest a novel methodology for ion-selective sensors based on FET’s, creating ultra-high sensitivity (−36 mV/log [Hg2+]) and ou...

In this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy expectation maximization (FEM) based Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy particle filtering (FEMTS-PF) algorithm for a passive sensor system. In order to incorporate target spatial-temporal information into particle filt...

The inductive proximity sensor (IPS) is applicable to displacement measurements in the aviation field due to its non-mechanical contact, safety, and durability. IPS can increase reliability of position detection and decrease maintenance cost of the s...

This paper proposes a multi-objective decision-making model for underwater countermeasures based on a multi-objective decision theory and solves it using the multi-objective discrete particle swarm optimization (MODPSO) algorithm. Existing decision-m...

Emotion recognition based on multi-channel electroencephalograph (EEG) signals is becoming increasingly attractive. However, the conventional methods ignore the spatial characteristics of EEG signals, which also contain salient information related to...

Recently, finger-based biometrics, including fingerprint (FP), finger-vein (FV) and finger-knuckle-print (FKP) with high convenience and user friendliness, have attracted much attention for personal identification. The features expression which is in...

Nowadays, anyone carrying a mobile device can enjoy the various location-based services provided by the Internet of Things (IoT). ‘Aggregate nearest neighbor query’ is a new type of location-based query which asks the question, ‘wha...

“Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks” (VANETs): As an active research area in the field of wireless sensor networks, they ensure road safety by exchanging alert messages about unexpected events in a decentralized manner. One of the significant chal...
