Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The International Conference on Internet of Things and Intelligent Applications (ITIA2020) will be held on November 27–29, 2020, in Zhenjiang, China (http://itia.xintongconference.com/Page).

ITIA2020 will be an excellent international conference for sharing knowledge and results in the theory, methodology, and applications of the Internet of things and artificial intelligence, and their applications in agriculture, education, etc. Authors of selected papers from the conference will be invited to submit extended versions of their original papers and contributions on conference topics (New papers closely related to the conference themes are also welcome).

Prof. Dr. Lei Shu

Accurate segmentation of entity categories is the critical step for 3D scene understanding. This paper presents a fast deep neural network model with Dense Conditional Random Field (DCRF) as a post-processing method, which can perform accurate semantic segmentation for 3D point cloud scene. On this basis, a compact but flexible framework is introduced for performing segmentation to the semantics of point clouds concurrently, contribute to more precise segmentation. Moreover, based on semantics labels, a novel DCRF model is elaborated to refine the result of segmentation. Besides, without any sacrifice to accuracy, we apply optimization to the original data of the point cloud, allowing the network to handle fewer data. In the experiment, our proposed method is conducted comprehensively through four evaluation indicators, proving the superiority of our method. Full article

With the development of smart vehicles and various vehicular applications, Vehicular Edge Computing (VEC) paradigm has attracted from academic and industry. Compared with the cloud computing platform, VEC has several new features, such as the higher network bandwidth and the lower transmission delay. Recently, vehicular computation-intensive task offloading has become a new research field for the vehicular edge computing networks. However, dynamic network topology and the bursty computation tasks offloading, which causes to the computation load unbalancing for the VEC networking. To solve this issue, this paper proposed an optimal control-based computing task scheduling algorithm. Then, we introduce software defined networking/OpenFlow framework to build a software-defined vehicular edge networking structure. The proposed algorithm can obtain global optimum results and achieve the load-balancing by the virtue of the global load status information. Besides, the proposed algorithm has strong adaptiveness in dynamic network environments by automatic parameter tuning. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively improve the utilization of computation resources and meet the requirements of computation and transmission delay for various vehicular tasks.
