Adjacency Matrix Based Energy Efficient Scheduling using S-MAC Protocol in Wireless Sensor Networks
Communication is the main motive in any Networks whether it is Wireless
Sensor Network, Ad-Hoc networks, Mobile Networks, Wired Networks, Local Area
Network, Metropolitan Area Network, Wireless Area Network etc, hence it must be
energy efficient. The main parameters for energy efficient communication are
maximizing network lifetime, saving energy at the different nodes, sending the
packets in minimum time delay, higher throughput etc. This paper focuses mainly
on the energy efficient communication with the help of Adjacency Matrix in the
Wireless Sensor Networks. The energy efficient scheduling can be done by
putting the idle node in to sleep node so energy at the idle node can be saved.
The proposed model in this paper first forms the adjacency matrix and
broadcasts the information about the total number of existing nodes with depths
to the other nodes in the same cluster from controller node. When every node
receives the node information about the other nodes for same cluster they
communicate based on the shortest depths and schedules the idle node in to
sleep mode for a specific time threshold so energy at the idle nodes can be
saved.Comment: 20 pages, 2 figures, 14 tables, 5 equations, International Journal of

Learning of Art Style Using AI and Its Evaluation Based on Psychological Experiments
[ICEC 2020]19th IFIP TC 14 International Conference, ICEC 2020, Xi'an, China, November 10–13, 2020, ProceedingsPart of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNCS, volume 12523)GANs (Generative adversarial networks) is a new AI technology that has the capability of achieving transformation between two image sets. Using GANs we have carried out a comparison between several art sets with different art styles. We have prepared four image sets; a flower image set with Impressionism art style, one with the Western abstract art style, one with Chinese figurative art style, and one with the art style of Naoko Tosa, one of the authors. Using these four sets we have carried out a psychological experiment to evaluate the difference between these four sets. We have found that abstract drawings and figurative drawings are judged to be different, figurative drawings in West and East were judged to be similar, and Naoko Tosa’s artworks are similar to Western abstract artworks
Developing Japanese Ikebana as a Digital Painting Tool via AI
[ICEC 2020]19th IFIP TC 14 International Conference, ICEC 2020, Xi'an, China, November 10–13, 2020, ProceedingsPart of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science book series (LNCS, volume 12523)In this research, we have carried out various experiments to perform mutual transformation between a domain of Ikebana (Japanese traditional flower arrangement) photos and other domains of images (landscapes, animals, portraits) to create new artworks via CycleGAN, a variation of GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks) - new AI technology that can perform deep learning with less training data. With the capability of achieving transformation between two image sets using CycleGAN, we obtained several interesting results in which Ikebana plays the role of a digital painting tool due to the flexibility and minimality of the Japanese culture form. Our experiments show that Ikebana can be developed as a painting tool in digital art with the help of CycleGAN and opens a new way to create digital artworks of high-abstracted level by applying AI techniques to elements from traditional culture
Route Planning in Transportation Networks
We survey recent advances in algorithms for route planning in transportation
networks. For road networks, we show that one can compute driving directions in
milliseconds or less even at continental scale. A variety of techniques provide
different trade-offs between preprocessing effort, space requirements, and
query time. Some algorithms can answer queries in a fraction of a microsecond,
while others can deal efficiently with real-time traffic. Journey planning on
public transportation systems, although conceptually similar, is a
significantly harder problem due to its inherent time-dependent and
multicriteria nature. Although exact algorithms are fast enough for interactive
queries on metropolitan transit systems, dealing with continent-sized instances
requires simplifications or heavy preprocessing. The multimodal route planning
problem, which seeks journeys combining schedule-based transportation (buses,
trains) with unrestricted modes (walking, driving), is even harder, relying on
approximate solutions even for metropolitan inputs.Comment: This is an updated version of the technical report MSR-TR-2014-4,

Guided Stereo Matching
Stereo is a prominent technique to infer dense depth maps from images, and
deep learning further pushed forward the state-of-the-art, making end-to-end
architectures unrivaled when enough data is available for training. However,
deep networks suffer from significant drops in accuracy when dealing with new
environments. Therefore, in this paper, we introduce Guided Stereo Matching, a
novel paradigm leveraging a small amount of sparse, yet reliable depth
measurements retrieved from an external source enabling to ameliorate this
weakness. The additional sparse cues required by our method can be obtained
with any strategy (e.g., a LiDAR) and used to enhance features linked to
corresponding disparity hypotheses. Our formulation is general and fully
differentiable, thus enabling to exploit the additional sparse inputs in
pre-trained deep stereo networks as well as for training a new instance from
scratch. Extensive experiments on three standard datasets and two
state-of-the-art deep architectures show that even with a small set of sparse
input cues, i) the proposed paradigm enables significant improvements to
pre-trained networks. Moreover, ii) training from scratch notably increases
accuracy and robustness to domain shifts. Finally, iii) it is suited and
effective even with traditional stereo algorithms such as SGM.Comment: CVPR 201
