Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of multiple sensors distributed in a certain geographic area. The goal of using WSNs is to monitor certain phenomena such as; environmental or physical. The nodes in WSNs transmit data through a wireless network that lacks infrastructure, which makes those networks exposed to security threats. One of those security threats is the black-hole attack which can...
The majority of robotic design approaches start with designing morphology, then designing the robot control. Even in evolutionary robotics, the morphology tends to be fixed while evolving the robot control, which considered insufficient since the robot control and morphology are interdependent. Moreover, both control and morphology are highly interdependent with the surrounding environment, which...
Alzheimer's (AD) is the most common form of dementia that negatively affects memory, thinking, behavior, and intellectual abilities in one's daily life. The risk of AD increases with age 65 and older although it may appear in people who are in their 40s or 50s. AD has no current cure. There are many ongoing research studies to understanding and treating this disease better. AD, a slowly progressive...
To understand how good posture minimizes computer related injury's pain, we developed Postuino. A device that warns the computer users if they are leaning too close towards computer screen. Postuino has an accompanying web application that visualizes the collected data and displays a chart to simplify comparing between straight time and slouch time. Also, the app suggests taking frequent breaks to...
Oil spill detection becomes very important nowadays, due to the importance of oil and to prevent pollution caused by oil leakage. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images show oil spill boundaries clearly. An oil spill appears as an obscure spot in SAR images. Therefore, thresholding is considered the best method to extract this patch and define its boundaries clearly. This paper proposes a novel thresholding...
