Abstract. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is an optimization algorithm which can be used for image edge detection. In traditional ACO, the initial ant are randomly distributed. This condition can cause an imbalance ants distribution. Based on this problem, a modified ant distribution in ACO is proposed to optimize the deployment of ant based gradient. Gradient value is used to determine the placement of the ants. Ants are not distributed randomly, but are placed in the highest gradient. This method is expected to be used to optimize the path discovery. Based on the test results, the use of the proposed ACO modification can obtain an average value of the Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) of 12.724. Meanwhile, the use of the traditional ACO can obtain an average value of PSNR of 12.268. These results indicate that the ACO modification is capable of generating output image better than traditional ACO in which ants are initially distributed randomly.Keywords: Ant Colony Optimization, gradient, Edge Detection, Peak Signal to Noise Ratio Abstrak. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) merupakan algoritma optimasi, yang dapat digunakan untuk deteksi tepi pada citra Pada ACO tradisional, semut awal disebarkan secara acak. Kondisi ini dapat menyebabkan ketidakseimbangan distribusi semut. Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut, modifikasi distribusi semut pada ACO diusulkan untuk mengoptimalkan penempatan semut berdasarkan gradient. Nilai gradient digunakan untuk menentukan penempatan semut. Semut tidak disebar secara acak akan tetapi ditempatkan di gradient tertinggi. Cara ini diharapkan dapat digunakan untuk optimasi penemuan jalur. Berdasarkan hasil uji coba, dengan menggunakan ACO modifikasi yang diusulkan dapat diperoleh nilai rata-rata Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR) 12,724. Sedangkan, menggunakan ACO tradisional diperoleh nilai rata-rata PSNR 12,268. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa ACO modifikasi mampu menghasilkan citra keluaran yang lebih baik dibandingkan ACO tradisional yang sebaran semut awalnya dilakukan secara acak.Kata Kunci: Ant Colony Optimization, gradient, deteksi tepi, Peak Signal to Noise Ratio

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems are increasingly becoming popular due to their ability to multiply data rates without any expansion in the bandwidth. This is critical in this era of high-data rate applications but limited bandwidth. MIMO detectors play an important role in ensuring effective communication in such systems and as such the performance of the following are compared in this paper with respect to symbol error rate (SER) versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR): maximum likelihood (ML), zero forcing (ZF), minimum mean square error (MMSE) and vertical Bell laboratories layered space time (VBLAST). Results showed that the ML has the best performance as it has the least Symbol Error Rate (SER) for all values of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) as it was 91.9% better than MMSE, 99.6% better than VBLAST and 99.8% better than ZF at 20db for a 2x2 antenna configuration., it can also be deduced that the performance increased with increase in number of antenna for all detectors except the V-BLAST detector.

Electromyography Signals

When electromyography (EMG) signals are collected from muscles in the torso, they can be perturbed by the electrocardiography (ECG) signals from heart activity. In this paper, we present a novel signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) estimate for an EMG signal contaminated by an ECG signal. We use six features that are popular in assessing EMG signals, namely skewness, kurtosis, mean average value, waveform length, zero crossing and mean frequency. The features were calculated from the raw EMG signals and the detail coefficients of the discrete stationary wavelet transform. Then, these features are used as inputs to a neural network that outputs the estimate of SNR. While we used simulated EMG signals artificially contaminated with simulated ECG signals as the training data, the testing was done with simulated EMG signals artificially contaminated with real ECG signals. The results showed that the waveform length determined with raw EMG signals was the best feature for estimating SNR. It gave the highest average correlation coefficient of 0.9663. These results suggest that the waveform length could be deployed not only in EMG recognition systems but also in EMG signal quality measurements when the EMG signals are contaminated by ECG interference.
