In order to perform automatic fall detection, we used Back Propagation Artificial Neural Network (BP-ANN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) based on the 6 features extracted from the raw data. The WGAS, which includes a tri-axial accelerometer, 2 gyroscopes, and a MSP430 microcontroller, is worn by the subjects at either T4 (at back) or as a belt-clip in front of the waist during the various tests. The raw data is wirelessly transmitted from the WGAS to a near-by PC for real-time fall classification. The BP ANN is optimized by varying the training, testing and validation data sets and training the network with different learning schemes. SVM is optimized by using three different kernels and selecting the kernel for best classification rate. The overall accuracy of BP ANN is obtained as 98.20% with LM and RPROP training from the T4 data, while from the data taken at the belt, we achieved 98.70% with LM and SCG learning. The overall accuracy using SVM was 98.80% and 98.71% with RBF kernel from the T4 and belt position data, respectively.展开更多

Wireless acoustic sensor nodes can capture sounds in the home and simultaneously deliver them to a sink node for sound event detection. The proposed approach is mainly composed of three modules, including signal estimation, reliable sensor channel selection, and sound event detection. During signal estimation, lost packets are recovered to improve the signal quality. Next, reliable channels are selected using a multi-channel cross-correlation coefficient to improve the computational efficiency for distant sound event detection without sacrificing performance. Finally, the signals of the selected two channels are used for environmental sound event detection based on bidirectional gated recurrent neural networks using two-channel audio features. Experiments show that the proposed approach achieves superior performances compared to the baseline.展开更多

The method overcomes the shortcomings of domestic fire alarm systems using single sensor information. Test results show that the identification error rates for fires, smoldering fires, and no fire are less than 5%, which greatly reduces leak-check rates and false alarms. This neural network fire alarm system can fuse a variety of sensor data and improve the ability of systems to adapt in the environment and accurately predict fires, which has great significance for life and property safety.展开更多

Several technologies are used to deal with the process data before modeling.First,a set of preliminary input variables is selected according to prior knowledge and experience. Secondly,a method based on the maximum correlation coefficient is proposed to detect the dead time between the process variables and response variables. Finally, the fuzzy curve method is used to reduce the unimportant input variables.The simulation results based on industrial data show that the relative error range of the FNN model is narrower than that of the American Oil Company (AMOCO) model. Furthermore, the FNN model can predict the trend of the 4-CBA concentration more accurately.展开更多

Gamma-ray source of241 Am and152Eu are used to test the system. Based on gray value, an analysis method is proposed to obtain the γ-ray dose. Cumulative dose is determined by correlating the gray value to the dose readings of standard dosimeters. The relationship between gray value and the cumulative dose of γ-rays are trained by using back propagation neural network with BFGS algorithm. After comparison, it shows that BFGS algorithm trainings are suitable for different γ-ray sources under higher error condition. These indicate the feasibility of measuring low energy γ-ray dose by using common CMOS image sensors.展开更多
