Traffic sign recognition is an important topic in driver assistant system and intelligent autonomous vehicles. Traffic sign detection is a critical step, whose performance greatly affect the performance and computation cost of traffic sign recognition. In this paper, we propose a traffic sign detection method based on a scoring SVM model. First, traffic sign color and color gradient are extracted according to their color characteristics. Then, the shape of traffic sign is computed by a voting scheme, yielding shape score maps. After that, the score maps of traffic signs are used to train a SVM model. Compared with single traffic sign score value, the score map is more efficient to verify the existence of a traffic sign. Finally, the trained SVM model is used to detect traffic signs. Experiments show that the proposed method is more effective than the voting based method to detect traffic signs.

Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) has been a promising technique for wireless communication areas, such as intelligent transportation systems. In this paper, we present performance evaluation of a multi-antenna transceiver for Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) according to IEEE 802.11p standard. Herein, MIMO WAVE is performed by employing three MIMO schemes, namely, Alamouti, vertical BLAST (V-BLAST) and space shift keying (SSK) scheme. The above three MIMO schemes are discussed and compared, considering the influence of different driving velocity and with/without line of sight (LOS) on the system performance. Based on the analysis and simulation results, it can be found that compared with single antenna systems, V-BLAST scheme would significantly increase the transmission data rate, while Alamouti and SSK scheme could improve the reliability and robustness even under poor receive conditions.

This paper proposes an iterative evolutionary algorithm with emulating nodes' local movement for searching the best localization accuracy in range-free scenario. All localization methods face a trade-off between the solution quality and computation cost. When sensor network localization in range-free scenario is considered as a constraint satisfaction problem, localization will reach the highest accuracy but with huge computation complexity. To solve the constraint satisfaction, some characteristics that only exist in range-free localization problem are utilized as heuristics in the search of nodes' positions. They are summarized as simple and complex movement to emulate nodes' local movement, and proved to be effective to find a suitable searching direction and jump out of local-minimums existing in the localization. Those emulations are then included in each iteration of a two-objective evolutionary algorithm minimizing the number of node-pairs with violated connectivity, as well as the value quantitating how worse of the violations. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can greatly decrease the reach high-accurate positions within limited iterations.

Virtual Reality(VR) is a three-dimensional computergenerated virtual world. It is essential to introduced VR technology to education area to develop new teaching mode to improve the efficiency and quality of teaching and learning. Among them, VR classroom has quickly become most dazzling star with its subversive advantage. This paper proposes an overall integration solution of VR classroom, including its composition, its scene design of various disciplines and its main advantage. Finally, a case study of a geography lesson is provided to show its advantages and strong potentiality.

In this article, I would like to share my daughter's experience on self-STEAM education. In our daily life, she can always find problems and then dream them with her imagination, finally narrows down her solutions to solve problems in her own way. During these problem-solving processes, I noticed that she went through sciences, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics in a very natural way. So I would like to say, STEAM is the way we learn and grow ever since we were born. But later at school, we are trained in a way that subjects are completely disconnected. It might take time to change this situation at school, but at home, as parents, we need to realize that children can discover new things by themselves even from young ages, and provide rich learning environment for them and let them "STEAM " themselves in their own way.
