Many researches have been addressed on design approach for speech enhancement. They are mainly focus on speech quality and intelligibility to produce high performance level of speech signal. Wiener filter is one of the adaptive filter algorithms to adjust filter coefficients and produce an output signal that satisfies some statistical criterion. The objective measures will optimize using informal...
In this paper, a new index is defined for the characterization of the vascular response to a predefined stimulus using the finger photoplethysmogram (PPG) as input. To this end, two different wavelengths (red and infrared) were employed. To show the feasibility of this concept, PPG signals were acquired from two subjects: a healthy and a diabetic with obesity. A normalization procedure was implemented...
Human Gait Recognition is typically alluded to imply the human ID by the style/way individuals stroll in picture sequences. Our point is to execute the customary gait recognition calculation and to demonstrate the variety in recognition when subject is watched parallel to camera under three conditions-walking slow, at typical speed and walking quickly. For this situation, the work devises a novel...
An overview of mass spectrometers incorporating miniaturization technology is presented. A brief history of conventional mass spectrometry is given, followed by a summary of the status of miniaturized systems. Applications for miniature/portable systems are reviewed, and opportunities and challenges are discussed.
User request trace-oriented monitoring is an effective method to improve the reliability of cloud systems. However, there are some difficulties in getting traces in practice, which hinder the development of trace-oriented monitoring research. In this paper, we release a fine-grained user request-centric open trace data set, called Trace Bench, collected on a real world cloud storage system deployed...
Internet of things (IOT) has become one of the most promising technology of the 21th century. In this paper, we combine the WIFI and global system for mobile communication (GSM) and build a distributing monitor system supporting standard commands for programmable instruments (SCPI), in which the WIFI is used to construct a local communicating network, the GSM is used for long distance communication,...
Under spatial constraints of the 3 × 3 matrix structure, the mathematical rationality of the daily running mode of Taiyi in Jiugong is explored in this paper and a novel matrix transformation is introduced based on the running track and order of Taiyi day by day. With necessary rotating operations of related matrices in the clock wise direction, which can associate the number distribution of Luoshu...
Mental health delineates the social and intellectual skills that will be needed to meet the new challenges in day to day life. Mental health is a fundamental element of resilience, health assets and the capabilities that influences life style changes and outcomes for individuals, families and communities. The positive effects of regular leisure-time physical activity on physical health and well-being...
Immunosensor is an ideal kind of biosensor, which enables highly specific detection of any kind of biological molecules. However, in spite of long and intensive efforts of research and development, no immunosensor is in practical use. This is mainly because of the difficulty in reduction of the back ground noise of non-specific adsorption. In this study, fluorescence anisotropy decay principle was...
This paper presents a successful e-learning experience concerning a practical course in the field of control process. In fact, the student accomplishes the practical course via the web by making measurements, control and supervision in real time through a control bench unit which is installed within the eSience laboratory at the ENET'COM. Using this common hardware/software platform, iLabs can offer...
This paper is dedicated to the presentation of the Tempus project “rESeau maghrébIn de laboratoirEs à distance”, eSience, which aims to create an eLab for the realization of remote practical courses in Maghreb countries (Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia). In this paper, we present a prototype for a remote laboratory for electronics implemented in the National Electronics and Telecommunications school of...
This work is part of the “eSience” project, which is realized in the framework of Tempus project, coordinated by Bordeau university and financed by the European Union. The “eSience” project aims to create a network of online labs in the maghrebian countries.
Many studies have widely accepted the assumption that learning processes can be promoted when teaching styles and learning styles are well matched. In this study, the synergy between learning styles, learning patterns, and gender as a selected demographic feature and learners' performance were quantitatively investigated in a blended learning setting. This environment adopts a traditional teaching...
In developed countries in the post industrial age, the ratio of the working population in service sectors has been very high. Our great concern is to improve those knowledge workers' creative performance because it could be the source of having an advantage over our rivals. However, there has been a lack of discussion over the management of service sectors for knowledge workers engaged in creative...
New technologies and computer applications prove to be powerful tools for children with special needs in order to improve specific skills. However, there is still a gap between research development and its applicability in schools. Thus, we have created a workgroup with a specialized state school in Spain. Based on their curricular project, we have identified the need for training the body such as...
The e-Learning Academic Network (RAeL) was implemented in the ”1 Decembrie 1918” University of Alba Iulia (Romania) as a result of this institution's objectives, such as the improvement and the diversification of the educational services within the following context: the existing modern teaching methodology; the policy to encourage studying — not only for young students, but also at any moment throughout...
When accidents or large fires occur, rapid and appropriate rescue operations should be taken in the scene. It is very important for such operation that rescue team members constantly communicate with each other in the site. Moreover the base station located near the site should be aware of the team members' positions and situations to direct them effectively. A remote monitoring system with ZigBee...
With the increase of students, electronic laboratories and instruments have become in critical need in many universities and colleges, thus the construction of virtual laboratory and virtual instruments have attracted attentions of many researchers. LabVIEW is the most widely used virtual instruments developing software with the most powerful functions, which can be used for virtual instruments developing,...
Promoting computational thinking is a priority in CS education and other STEM and non-STEM disciplines. Our innovative, NSF-funded IC2Think project blends computational and creative thinking. In Spring 2013, we deployed Computational Creativity Exercises (CCE) designed to engage creative competencies (Surrounding, Capturing, Challenging and Broadening) in an introductory CSI course for engineering...
In 2009, a 12-week-long project-based course Optoelectronic Instrument Experiments (OIE) was launched at the School of Opto-Electronics, Beijing Institute of Technology. During the classes, the students are assigned to teams and each team chooses one project to implement in twelve weeks. Through the mini simulative "Cycle of Professional Practice", students will learn how to integrate the...
