Multi-level human motion tracking and analysis is still an open question in person surveillance, especially with constrained computational and communication resources. In this paper, we propose a sensing paradigm which could address this challenge efficiently and effectively. The proposed paradigm mainly includes two components. First, we design a compressive infrared sensing model, which can sample and encode multi-level human motion into low-level sensor data directly, without the mediate process of scene recovery. Second, we employ lightweight data processing algorithms to detect and segment human motion at different levels, and decode the location information adaptively. We used self-developed pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensor nodes to construct a wireless distributed network, and conducted experiments in real office environment. The experimental results showed that the proposed paradigm could track human motion at two levels robustly, and the computational and communication burden is low (5×1 sensor data stream at 5 Hz for processing). Our paradigm bridges the gap between the low-level sensor data and the high-level analysis for large-scale automated surveillance, and could serve as useful guidance for system design if needed.

PurposeThis paper aims to propose an extensible, service-oriented framework for context-aware data acquisition, description, interpretation and reasoning, which facilitates the development of mobile applications that provide a context-awareness service.Design/methodology/approachFirst, the authors propose the context data reasoning framework (CDRFM) for generating service-oriented contextual information. Then they used this framework to composite mobile sensor data into low-level contextual information. Finally, the authors exploited some high-level contextual information that can be inferred from the formatted low-level contextual information using particular inference rules.FindingsThe authors take “user behavior patterns” as an exemplary context information generation schema in their experimental study. The results reveal that the optimization of service can be guided by the implicit, high-level context information inside user behavior logs. They also prove the validity of the authors’ framework.Research limitations/implicationsFurther research will add more variety of sensor data. Furthermore, to validate the effectiveness of our framework, more reasoning rules need to be performed. Therefore, the authors may implement more algorithms in the framework to acquire more comprehensive context information.Practical implicationsCDRFM expands the context-awareness framework of previous research and unifies the procedures of acquiring, describing, modeling, reasoning and discovering implicit context information for mobile service providers.Social implicationsSupport the service-oriented context-awareness function in application design and related development in commercial mobile software industry.Originality/valueExtant researches on context awareness rarely considered the generation contextual information for service providers. The CDRFM can be used to generate valuable contextual information by implementing more reasoning rules.

Many websites are in general poorly defined and its users are not able to find the information they need. That is the reason why many papers are addressed to propose techniques able to find the right information for a user. Most of these techniques focus on finding the required information in the whole Internet. Many times the owner of the website gives incomplete/imprecise information with low level of usefulness for the user. The re-structuring of the information is many times enough for detecting lacks of information, inconsistencies and imprecisions. However this work is normally very difficult without losing performances of the website. The authors have developed a novel application to exploit existing information in a website in a more profitable way restructuring the information without the intervention of the content provider. This paper describes the authors' experience during their participation in the European Commission ESPRIT 29158 FLEX Project.

In order to increase the fuel level measurement accuracy in aircraft fuel system, the method of sensor signal filtering based on the wavelet energy entropy was put forward. Using the maximum entropy principle the wavelet energy entropy of high-frequency coefficient vector in each level was calculated while the output signal of sensor was analyzed in wavelet multi-resolution mode. Once the sum of wavelet energy entropy for filtered signal and noise signal is maximum, the filtering effect is much better. At the same time, the result of tests which use simulation signal and fuel level sensor data collected from fuel tank oscillation test are all satisfied, it is show that this method is available.

AbstractIn this paper, a new information model for machine learning applications is introduced, which allows for a consistent acquisition and semantic annotation of process data, structural information and domain knowledge from industrial productions systems. The proposed information model is based on Industry 4.0 components and IEC 61360 component descriptions. To model sensor data, components of the OGC SensorThings model such as data streams and observations have been incorporated in this approach. Machine learning models can be integrated into the information model in terms of existing model serving frameworks like PMML or Tensorflowgraph. Based on the proposed information model, a tool chain for automatic knowledge extraction is introduced and the automatic classification of unstructured text is investigated as a particular application case for the proposed tool chain.
