Numerous studies have established the necessity for developing safety equipment to detect drowsiness among vehicle drivers. However, for reliable implementations, such systems must employ dependable sources of stimuli; through…
This study proposes a method for radar-based identification of individuals using a combination of their respiratory and heartbeat features. In the proposed method, the target individual's respiratory features are extracted using the…
INTRODUCTION: The Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) serve as the accepted standard to monitor treatment efficacy in lung cancer. However, the time intervals between consecutive computerized tomography scans might be too…
Human respiratory rate and its pattern convey essential information about the physical and psychological states of the subject. Abnormal breathing can indicate fatal health issues leading to further diagnosis and treatment. Wireless…
Firefighting is a dynamic activity, in which numerous operations occur simultaneously. Maintaining situational awareness (i.e., knowledge of current conditions and activities at the scene) is critical to the accurate decision-making…
Myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack, is a critical health condition caused by restricted blood flow to the heart. Early-stage detection through continuous ECG monitoring is essential to minimize irreversible damage.…
We develop a technique for the multivariate data analysis of perturbed self-sustained oscillators. The approach is based on the reconstruction of the phase dynamics model from observations and on a subsequent exploration of this model. For…
In this paper, we explore the use of channel state information (CSI) from a WiFi system to estimate the breathing rate of a person in a room. In order to extract WiFi CSI components that are sensitive to breathing, we propose to consider…
Recent years have seen an increasing interest in the design of AQM (Active Queue Management) controllers. The purpose of these controllers is to manage the network congestion under varying loads, link delays and bandwidth. In this paper, a…
To maximise fuel economy, bladed components in aero-engines operate close to material limits. The severe operating environment leads to in-service damage on compressor and turbine blades, having a profound and immediate impact on the…
Accurately estimate performance of currently available processors is becoming a key activity, particularly in HENP environment, where high computing power is crucial. This document describes the methods and programs, opensource or freeware,…
This paper presents a method that estimates the respiratory rate based on the frame capturing of wireless local area networks. The method uses beamforming feedback matrices (BFMs) contained in the captured frames, which is a rotation matrix…
Runtime Monitoring is a lightweight and dynamic verification technique that involves observing the internal operations of a software system and/or its interactions with other external entities, with the aim of determining whether the system…
This research paper addresses the challenge of detecting obscured wildfires (when the fire flames are covered by trees, smoke, clouds, and other natural barriers) in real-time using drones equipped only with RGB cameras. We propose a novel…
We present a novel approach for training kernel Support Vector Machines, establish learning runtime guarantees for our method that are better then those of any other known kernelized SVM optimization approach, and show that our method works…
The morphology and velocity of the pulse wave in the arteries provide meaningful information about the cardiovascular system. Nowadays, the pulse wave is usually acquired using common blood pressure cuffs at the extremities. This work…
Measuring the respiratory signal from a video based on body motion has been proposed and recently matured in products for video health monitoring. The core algorithm for this measurement is the estimation of tiny chest/abdominal motions…
CT image-guided thermal ablation is widely used for lung cancer treatment; however, follow-up data indicate that physicians' subjective assessments of intraoperative images often overestimate the ablation effect, potentially leading to…
This paper addresses the problem of automatically detecting and quantifying performance degradation in remote mobile robots during task execution. A robot may encounter a variety of uncertainties and adversities during task execution, which…
Self-reflecting about our performance (e.g., how confident we are) before doing a task is essential for decision making, such as selecting the most suitable tool or choosing the best route to drive. While this form of awareness -- thinking…
