Recently computer vision has been applied in various fields of engineering successfully ranging from manufacturing to autonomous cars. A key player in this development is the achievements of the latest object detection and classification architecture...
Blockchain is a developing technology that can provide users with such advantages as decentralization, data security, and transparency of transactions. Blockchain has many applications, one of them is the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry. DeFi i...
Massive MIMO is one of the leading technologies for connecting very large numbers of energy-constrained nodes, as it offers both extensive spatial multiplexing and large array gain. A challenge resides in partitioning the many nodes into groups that...
The plethora of changes that have taken place in policy formulations on higher education in recent years in Greece has led to unification, the abolition of departments or technological educational institutions (TEI) and mergers at universities. As a...
Considering the large number of optimisation techniques that have been integrated into the design of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) over the last three decades, the Java interpreter continues to persist as a significant bottleneck in the performance...
The primary purpose of the supply chains is to ensure and secure the availability and smooth flow of the necessary resources for efficient production processes and consumption. Supply chain activities have been experiencing significant changes due to...
Non-Zero crossing point detection in a sinusoidal signal is essential in case of various power system and power electronics applications like power system protection and power converters controller design. In this paper 96 data sets are created from...
This paper conducts quantitative research on the assessment made by a group of 623 Spanish and Latin American university professors about the use of virtual reality technologies in the classroom and their own digital skills in this respect. The main...
Left bundle branch block (LBBB) is a common disorder in the heart’s electrical conduction system that leads to the ventricles’ uncoordinated contraction. The complete LBBB is usually associated with underlying heart failure and other card...
In the field of medical imaging, one of the most extended research setups consists of the comparison between two groups of images, a pathological set against a control set, in order to search for statistically significant differences in brain activit...
Simulators allow for the simulation of real-world environments that would otherwise be financially costly and difficult to implement at a technical level. Thus, a simulation environment facilitates the implementation and development of use cases, ren...
Context: Today’s vehicle development is focusing more and more on handling the vast amount of software and hardware inside the vehicle. The resulting planning and development of the software especially confronts original equipment manufacturers...
In recent years, educational researchers and practitioners have become increasingly interested in new technologies for teaching and learning, including augmented reality (AR). The literature has already highlighted the benefit of AR in enhancing lear...
Among the sources of legal considerations are judges’ previous decisions regarding similar cases that are archived in court decision documents. However, due to the increasing number of court decision documents, it is difficult to find relevant...
Wireless underground sensor networks (WUSNs) are being used in agricultural applications, in border patrol, and in the monitoring of remote areas. Coverage holes in WUSNs are an issue which needs to be dealt with. Coverage holes may occur due to rand...
Existing generative adversarial networks (GANs), primarily used for creating fake image samples from natural images, demand a strong dependence (i.e., the training strategy of the generators and the discriminators require to be in sync) for the gener...
Several calibration algorithms use spheres as calibration tokens because of the simplicity and uniform shape that a sphere presents across multiple views, along with the simplicity of its construction. Among the alternatives are the use of complex 3D...
