The research community has increasing interest in autonomous driving research, despite the resource intensity of obtaining representative real world data. Existing self-driving datasets are limited in the scale and variation of the…
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is envisioned to be an integral component of 5G networks, and a technique for meeting the demand for high data rates. In a cellular network, D2D allows not only direct communication between users, but…
Location data collected from mobile devices represent mobility behaviors at individual and societal levels. These data have important applications ranging from transportation planning to epidemic modeling. However, issues must be overcome…
In today's digital age, access to the Internet is essential, yet a significant digital divide exists, particularly in rural areas of developing nations. This paper presents a Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) framework that utilizes informal…
Autonomous driving and assistance systems rely on annotated data from traffic and road scenarios to model and learn the various object relations in complex real-world scenarios. Preparation and training of deploy-able deep learning…
We propose an analytic approach to the frequency bandwidth dimensioning problem, faced by cellular network operators who deploy/upgrade their networks in various geographical regions (countries) with an inhomogeneous urbanization. We…
In their efforts to tackle the COVID-19 crisis, decision makers are considering the development and use of smartphone applications for contact tracing. Even though these applications differ in technology and methods, there is an increasing…
The intense demands for higher data rates and ubiquitous network coverage have raised the stakes on developing new network topology and architecture to meet these ever-increasing demands in a cost-effective manner. The telecommunication…
This paper introduces a novel enhancement to the Decentralized Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (D-MARL) exploration by proposing communication-induced action space to improve the mapping efficiency of unknown environments using…
In this article, we present a distributed framework for collecting and analyzing environmental and location data recorded by human users (carriers) with the use of portable sensors. We demonstrate the data mining analysis potential among…
Gloss is a written approximation that bridges Sign Language (SL) and its corresponding spoken language. Despite a deaf and hard-of-hearing population of at least 3 million in Bangladesh, Bangla Sign Language (BdSL) remains largely…
Understanding human mobility is essential for many fields, including transportation planning. Currently, surveys are the primary source for such analysis. However, in the recent past, many researchers have focused on Call Detail Records…
Cell phone technology generates massive amounts of data. Although this data has been gathered for billing and logging purposes, today it has a much higher value, because its volume makes it very useful for big data analyses. In this…
Direct-to-cell (D2C) satellite communications have emerged as a crucial alternative to terrestrial communications in the sixth generation (6G) mobile networks due to their wide-area coverage capability. Unlike human-oriented communications,…
Research on mobile phone use often starts with a question of "How much time users spend on using their phones?". The question involves an equal-length measure that captures the duration of mobile phone use but does not tackle the other…
This study leverages mobile phone data to analyze human mobility patterns in developing countries, especially in comparison to more industrialized countries. Developing regions, such as the Ivory Coast, are marked by a number of factors…
Studies in malaria control cover many areas such as medicine, sociology, biology, mathematic, physic, computer science and so forth. Researches in the realm of mathematic are conducted to predict the occurrence of the disease and to support…
The upcoming Sixth Generation (6G) mobile communications system envisions supporting a variety of use cases with differing characteristics, e.g., very low to extremely high data rates, diverse latency needs, ultra massive connectivity,…
Drones are an exciting technology that is quickly being adopted in the global consumer market. Africa has become a center of deployment with the first drone airport established in Rwanda and drones currently being used for applications such…
Broadband connectivity is a tool for catalyzing socio-economic development and reducing the societal inequalities. Recent studies have investigated the supporting role of broadband in addressing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).…
