The increasing number of distributed generators connected to distribution grids requires a reliable monitoring of such grids. Economic considerations prevent a full observation of distribution grids with direct measurements. First…
Responses to disastrous events are a challenging problem, because of possible damages on communication infrastructures. For instance, after a natural disaster, infrastructures might be entirely destroyed. Different network paradigms were…

In a multi-hop mobile ad hoc network (MANET) mobile nodes communicate with each other forming a cooperative radio network. Security remains a major challenge for these networks due to their features of open medium, dynamically changing…
In Cognitive Radio (CR) ad hoc networks, secondary users (SU) attempt to utilize valuable spectral resources without causing significant interference to licensed primary users (PU). While there is a large body of research on spectrum…
In recent years, the natural language processing community has moved away from task-specific feature engineering, i.e., researchers discovering ad-hoc feature representations for various tasks, in favor of general-purpose methods that learn…
Due to limited availability of spectrum for licensed users only, the need for secondary access by unlicensed users is increasing. Cognitive radio turns out to be helping this situation because all that is needed is a technique that could…
Handoff decisions are usually signal strength based because of simplicity and effectiveness. Apart from the conventional techniques, such as threshold and hysteresis based schemes, recently many artificial intelligent techniques such as…

An important first step when deploying a wireless ad hoc network is neighbor discovery in which every node attempts to determine the set of nodes it can communicate with in one wireless hop. In the recent years, cognitive radio (CR)…
Rapid identification of hazardous events is essential for next-generation Earth Observation (EO) missions supporting disaster response. However, current monitoring pipelines remain largely ground-centric, introducing latency due to downlink…
In recent years, the growth of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms has raised the number of studies including their applicability in a variety of different scenarios. Among all, one of the hardest ones is the aerospace, due to its peculiar…
Modern aircraft are designed with redundant control effectors to cater for fault tolerance and maneuverability requirements. This leads to aircraft being over-actuated and requires control allocation schemes to distribute the control…
Artificial neural network (ANN) is tested as a tool for finding a new subgrid model of the subgrid-scale (SGS) stress in large-eddy simulation. ANN is used to establish a functional relation between the grid-scale (GS) flow field and the…
Disaster response is critical to save lives and reduce damages in the aftermath of a disaster. Fundamental to disaster response operations is the management of disaster relief resources. To this end, a local agency (e.g., a local emergency…
