Adaptive Hierarchical Data Aggregation using Compressive Sensing (A-HDACS) for Non-smooth Data Field
Compressive Sensing (CS) has been applied successfully in a wide variety of
applications in recent years, including photography, shortwave infrared
cameras, optical system research, facial recognition, MRI, etc. In wireless
sensor networks (WSNs), significant research work has been pursued to
investigate the use of CS to reduce the amount of data communicated,
particularly in data aggregation applications and thereby improving energy
efficiency. However, most of the previous work in WSN has used CS under the
assumption that data field is smooth with negligible white Gaussian noise. In
these schemes signal sparsity is estimated globally based on the entire data
field, which is then used to determine the CS parameters. In more realistic
scenarios, where data field may have regional fluctuations or it is piecewise
smooth, existing CS based data aggregation schemes yield poor compression
efficiency. In order to take full advantage of CS in WSNs, we propose an
Adaptive Hierarchical Data Aggregation using Compressive Sensing (A-HDACS)
scheme. The proposed schemes dynamically chooses sparsity values based on
signal variations in local regions. We prove that A-HDACS enables more sensor
nodes to employ CS compared to the schemes that do not adapt to the changing
field. The simulation results also demonstrate the improvement in energy
efficiency as well as accurate signal recovery
Al Hybrid Content-Based Retrieval Approach For Video Data
Increasing use of multimedia data makes it crucial to develop intelligent search mec:hanisms for retrieving multimedia data by content. Traditional text-based methods clearly do not suffice to describe the rich content of images, voice or video. Digital vidseo requires the incorporation of temporal information for any effective contentbased retrieval scheme. We present a novel technique which integrates object motion ancl temporal relationship information in order to characterize the events for subsequent search for similar clips. We propose a hybrid mechanism based on object motion trails similarity match and interval-based temporal modeling that leads to a unique framework for spatio-temporal content based access in digital video. We implemented the proposed methods and demonstrated that high-level query formulation can be achieved for the aforementioned purpose. Development of such technology will enable true multimedia search engines that will accomplish what current Internet search engines like Infoseek or Excite do today for textual data
Fault detection through discrete wavelet transform in overhead power transmission lines
Transmission lines are a very important and vulnerable part of the power system. Power supply to the consumers depends on the fault-free status of transmission lines. If the normal working condition of the power system is disturbed due to faults, the persisting fault of long duration results in financial and economic losses. The fault analysis has an important association with the selection of protective devices and reliability assessment of high-voltage transmission lines. It is imperative to devise a suitable feature extraction tool for accurate fault detection and classification in transmission lines. Several feature extraction techniques have been used in the past but due to their limitations, that is, for use in stationary signals, limited space in localizing nonstationary signals, and less robustness in case of variations in normal operation conditions. Not suitable for real-time applications and large calculation time and memory requirements. This research presents a discrete wavelet transform (DWT)-based novel fault detection technique at different parameters, that is, fault inception and fault resistance with proper selection of mother wavelet. In this study, the feasibility of DWT using MATLAB software has been investigated. It has been concluded from the simulated data that wavelet transform together with an effective classification algorithm can be implemented as an effective tool for real-time monitoring and accurate fault detection and classification in the transmission lines.© 2023 The Authors.
