Body sensornetworks aim to capture the state of the user and its environment by utilizing from information heterogeneous sensors, and allow continuous monitoring of numerous physiological signals, where these sensors are attached to the subject's body. This can be immensely useful in activity recognition for identity verification, health and ageing and sport and exercise monitoring applications. In this paper, the application of body sensornetworks for automatic and intelligent daily activity monitoring for elderly people, using wireless body sensors and smartphone inertial sensors has been reported. The scheme uses information theory-based feature ranking algorithms and classifiers based on random forests, ensemble learning and lazy learning. Extensive experiments using different publicly available datasets of human activity show that the proposed approach can assist in the development of intelligent and automatic real time human activity monitoring technology for eHealth application scenarios for elderly, disabled and people with special needs.

In this paper, an ensemble of models is introduced which combines a linear parametric model and a nonlinear non-parametric model such as Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Ibis model aims to embody the desirable characteristics of linear parametric model such as stable generalization capability while retaining the data-based learning and prediction capacity of ANNs. The proposed model is applied for short term time series prediction and the results show that the proposed model achieves good generalization (prediction) performance utilizing the nonparametric ANN model component while achieving much improved stability utilizing the linear model component. The experiment compares the proposed model to other ANN models and linear models for generalization.

The extended Kalman filter has been successfully applied to the feedforward and the recurrent neural network training. Recently introduced derivative-free filters (Unscented Kalman Filter and Divided Difference Filter) outperform the extended Kalman filter in nonlinear state estimation. In the parameter estimation of the feedforward neural networks UKF and DDF are comparable or slightly better than EKF with a significant advantage that they do not demand calculation of the neural network Jacobian. In this paper, we consider the application Of EKF, UKF and DDF to the recurrent neural network training. The class of non-linear autoregressive recurrent neural networks with exogenous inputs is chosen as a basic architecture due to its powerful representational capabilities.

Moderatism [1], which is a learning model for ANNs, is based on the principle that individual neurons and neural nets as a whole try to sustain a "moderate" level in their input and output signals. In this way, a close mutual relationship with the outside environment is maintained. In this paper, two potential Moderatism-based local, gradient learning rules are proposed. Then, a pattern learning experiment is performed to compare the learning performances of these two learning rules, the Error Based Weight Update (EBWU) rule [4][5], and Error Backpropagation [3].

In the era of big data and IoT, sensornetworks is being explored as a new method of information gathering, processing and dissemination where data is mapped with the location of sensor nodes. Localization is a method where a sensor node has the ability to self-locate the location. Most of the localization algorithms in wireless sensornetworks(WSNs) need the location information of reference nodes to localize the unknown nodes. APIT is an anchor based range free localization algorithm which locate the location of unknown node by triangular area method. When the location of the unknown node is near the edge, this algorithm is imprecise. In this paper, an APIT localization algorithm is implemented and analyzed which reduces the localization error by eliminating the edge error effect. The Simulation has been done in MATLAB environment

We present a novel, computationally simple method for interference suppression in an orthogonal-frequency division multiplexing system with multiple receive antennas. The algorithm estimates the power spectrum of the interference and noise using a low-order time-domain model, and uses a penalized-likelihood approach to adaptively choose the model order. Numerical examples illustrate the performance of our method.

Mobile wireless sensornetworks (MWSNs) are a new type of WSN where sink or sensor nodes are mobile. Compared to static WSNs, MWSNs provide many advantages, but the mobility introduces a new security problem of frequent reauthentication. To resolve this problem, several efficient mobile node reauthentication schemes have been proposed. However, they do not work properly in the situation where the mobile node moves between non-neighboring cluster heads. Otherwise, the communication or computation overheads of the mobile node are too high. In this paper, we propose an efficient and practical mobile node reauthentication scheme. In our scheme, through the handover candidate discovery, the mobile node can be reauthenticated efficiently even if it moves between nonneighboring cluster heads. The security analysis shows that our scheme meets the security requirements well and provides better robustness against node compromise attack than the previous study. The performance evaluation shows that our scheme consumes less energy and provides shorter reauthentication delay than previous studies.
