This paper presents design considerations of indoor and outdoor navigation techniques proposed for unmanned vehicles (UV). In this paper, we mainly investigate the use and the advantages of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for indoor navigation, and Global Positioning System (GPS) for outdoor navigation. The system primarily uses laser range finder (LRF) measurements for indoor navigation, and is based on Extended Kalman Filter (EKF). For outdoor navigation the system uses Inertial Navigation System (INS) measurements. At periodical intervals the system integrates the measurements of an absolute sensor to improve estimations. The absolute sensor is a WSN interface for indoor navigation, and a GPS receiver for outdoor navigation. Simulation studies were conducted using Unified System for Automation and Robot Simulation (USARSim) and Player/Stage. The results of USARSim based simulations prove the advantages of integrating GPS measurements. Player/Stage based simulations show the advantages of integrating Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) measurements obtained from WSN interfaces. In addition to the simulation studies, field tests with a custom-built Corobot autonomous robot platform will be realized to prove the effectiveness of the methods.

This paper presents a novel approach of using unmanned aerial vehicles (UA Vs) to establish a communication infrastructure in case of disasters. Due to the collapse of buildings, power systems, and antennas, the collapse of communication infrastructure is the usual effect of disasters. In this study, we propose an emergency communications system established by unmanned aerial vehicles (UA Vs). The system is a post-disaster solution; hence, it can be used anywhere required. In this study, first we briefly explain the details of the system in three aspects: end-to-end communication, localization and navigation, and coordination Then, we evaluate the efficiency of the localization and navigation subsystem. Our simulation studies with Air Robot quadrotor helicopters in Unified System for Automation and Robot Simulation (USARSim) simulation environment show that UAV-aided communications system can be used in case of disasters to establish an emergency communications infrastructure in terms of localization and navigation.

Data mining has become an important and active area of research because of theoretical challenges and practical applications associated with the problem of discovering interesting and previously unknown knowledge from very large real world database. These databases contain potential gold mine of valuable information, but it is beyond human ability to analyze massive amount of data and elicit meaningful patterns by using conventional techniques. In this study, DNA sequence was analyzed to locate promoter which is a regulatory region of DNA located upstream of a gene, providing a control point for regulated gene transcription. In this study, some supervised learning algorithms such as artificial neural network (ANN), RULES-3 and newly developed keREM rule induction algorithm were used to analyse to DNA sequence. In the experiments different option of keREM, RULES-3 and ANN were used, and according to the empirical comparisons, the algorithms appeared to be comparable to well-known algorithms in terms of the accuracy of the extracted rule in classifying unseen data.

High reliability and high availability are essential aspects for all critical elements used in automotive applications. This is particularly true for control and steering systems. In this regard, numerous steer by wire (x-by-wire) concepts were developed over the years. Most of them considered only standard single microcontroller system architectures with a low degree of reliability according to international reliability and safety standards. This paper presents a novel concept for a degradable safety controller for steer-by-wire systems. Based on a safety-related 1004-architecture, the presented concept offers higher safety, reliability and availability.

As semi-conductor technologies move down to the nanometer scale, leakage power has become a significant component of the total power consumption. In this paper, we present a leakage-aware modulo scheduling algorithm to achieve leakage energy saving for applications with loops on Very Long Instruction Word （VLIW） architectures. The proposed algorithm is designed to maximize the idleness of function units integrated with the dual-threshold domino logic, and reduce the number of transitions between the active and sleep modes. We have implemented our technique in the Trimaran compiler and conducted experiments using a set of embedded benchmarks from DSPstone and Mibench on the cycle-accurate VLIW simulator of Trimaran. The results show that our technique achieves significant leakage energy saving compared with a previously published DAG-based （Directed Acyclic Graph） leakage-aware scheduling algorithm.

This paper presents a study on a class of algorithms based on Uniform Theory of Diffraction (UTD) for multiple diffractions. S-UTD-CH model can be used for fast and more accurate field prediction for multiple diffractions in transition zone. An extensive simulation results for comparison of UTD based algorithms with respect to the computation time and accuracy was provided.

Liver is a vital organ of a body that has numerous functions. Severe malfunctioning of these functions causes a liver necrosis. The diagnosis of this necrosis is performed by a specialist who uses appropriate microscopic analysis. However, because this analysis is based on specialist's opinion, the results could be subjective and error prone. The aim of this study is to quantify the hepatic necrotic areas using computer aided algorithms and provide quantitative results that are not prone to errors.
