An Improved Multi-state Particle Swarm Optimization for Discrete Optimization Problems
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):3 - 8Particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been successfully applied to solve various optimization problems. Recently, a state-based algorithm called multi-state particle swarm optimization (MSPSO) has been proposed to solve discrete combinatorial optimization problems. The algorithm operates based on a simplified mechanism of transition between two states. However, the MSPSO algorithm has to deal with... View full abstract»

A Multi-state Gravitational Search Algorithm for Combinatorial Optimization Problems
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):9 - 14The binary-based algorithms including the binary gravitational search algorithm (BGSA) were designed to solve discrete optimization problems. Many improvements of the binary-based algorithms have been reported. In this paper, a variant of GSA called multi-state gravitational search algorithm (MSGSA) for discrete optimization problems is proposed. The MSGSA concept is based on a simplified mechanis...

Hypernymy in WordNet, Its Role in WSD, and Its Limitations
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):15 - 19
Cited by: Papers (2)This paper closely analysed and depicted the role of the hyponymy that is used in the lexical database called the Word Net to relate the words semantically with a relation "... Is a kind of...". The relation has very important role for disambiguating the senses of a polysemy word in any natural language and is, therefore, massively used in knowledge-based Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) approaches...

RSS Based Localization Using a New WKNN Approach
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):27 - 30
Cited by: Papers (8)Location aware applications are constantly under development. By using an Indoor Location System (ILS), a user can localize himself, plan an indoor route and destination, or receive useful information and services in malls, airports, shopping centers, etc. To this purpose, various signal strength or timing based localization methods exist, each one having their own advantages and disadvantages. Lo... View full abstract»

Evaluation of a Bicycle-Mounted Ultrasonic Distance Sensor for Monitoring Road Surface Condition
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):31 - 34
Cited by: Papers (1)In the case of cycling at a blind road, at night or cycling by elderly people, it is helpful to prevent accidents if information on bad road surface condition, such as break, potholes, obstacles, bumps, is preliminary obtained. In this paper, we consider to use a low-cost ultrasonic distance sensor attached on a bicycle for monitoring the road surface conditions in the front area. We design and im... View full abstract»

Knowledge Based Routing Protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):35 - 38Routing in a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is an important function for performance of the system in terms of energy efficiency. The WSN nodes have limited computing and processing power. For successful delivery of information in the event/data driven network of sensor nodes, distributive and/or collaborative approach is having high importance. In this paper, we have presented a set of mechanisms ... View full abstract»

Augmenting QoS in Outdoor Wireless Sensor Networks through Frequency Optimization
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):39 - 44Wireless sensor networks are immensely used for environmental monitoring, landslide detection, disaster management etc. These networks are mostly deployed in outdoor scenarios. In a typical outdoor scenario the propagation of the radio signal can be affected by several factors like the rainfall, foliage, path loss effect and fading effect. The outdoor wireless sensor network can experience QoS var... View full abstract»

Electromagnetically Coupled Microstrip Patch Antennas for High Frequency Sensing Applications
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):45 - 50In this paper the analysis of the stacked patch antennas on two different substrates namely Arlon and Polymide at terahertz frequency is presented. The analysis is carried out with two parameters namely by varying the distance of separation of patches and varying the substrates. Electrical parameters like return loss, gain, and bandwidth are compared with conventional patch antenna at same resonan... View full abstract»

Comparison of Different Weight Assignment Strategy in Weighted Cooperative Spectrum Sensing
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):53 - 58
Cited by: Papers (3)Cooperative spectrum sensing is used to overcome limited computing power of individual nodes to correctly estimate existence of primary user in presence of multipath fading, shadowing and receiver uncertainty. However, conventional cooperative spectrum sensing is not reliable in case when users suffer different fading environment. Thus, to enhance the detection probability of the system weighted c...

A Novel Method of Opportunistic Wireless Energy Harvesting in Cognitive Radio Networks
Publication Year: 2015, Page(s):59 - 64
Cited by: Papers (1)Energy-harvesting in cognitive radio network has developed as a solution to increase energy and spectrum efficiency demand. To maximize energy efficiently, we proposed a novel method with co-existence of Primary and Secondary transmitters in which low power carriers form a secondary network, called secondary transmitters (STs). ST's harvest energy from transmission of nearby transmitters called pr... View full abstract»
