IoT-enabled technologies have been creating phenomenal impacts in the field of biomedical applications ever since the advancements in ubiquitous computing has begun. Securing these biomedical applications has always been a key concern due to the highly openness nature of Wireless Computing Technologies (WCT) to the vulnerabilities. Access control is an important factor in designing a security system for such applications which involves seamless healthcare devices. However, several existing approaches provide token-based access control mechanisms that are still facing the challenges in integrating the multilayered security architecture. In this regard, the proposed model contributes towards in designing two-way authentication centric and generic security framework for healthcare applications under the protected resource accessing environment. The model features its heterogeneous set of users to interact with the token-based resource accessing environment in healthcare scenario, preventing unauthorized users accessing the personalized medical devices. The proposed model produced the extensive better results in comparison with conventional single layered security approaches in terms of Human to Machine (H2M) interactions under the presumption of distributed and context-aware approaches.

Electromagnetic simulation of human body communication (HBC) was conducted to clarify the electric field distribution and signal transmission paths. Signal transmission from a transmitter to a receiver attached on the same person was analyzed by inspecting the distribution of electric field vector. Contribution of the floor was evaluated by comparing the signal transmission with/without the floor. Electric field was analyzed by using not only the vertical but also the horizontal planes for the observation plane in order to better understand the three dimensional distribution. These simulation results show the major signal transmission path in commonly adopted configuration of HBC.

Communication modules and display devices are required to display and provide dynamic information at bus stops. Conventional bus stops provide bus users delay information and sightseeing information by combining cellular network with bulletin board, a liquid crystal panel, electronic paper (hereinafter referred to as “e-paper”), etc. However, there are many cases in which the visibility of information drops significantly depending on the amount of information of the content displayed on the bus stop and the specification of the display device to be adopted. In this paper, we describe the design of a smart bus stop that can use responsive web design and display optimized content on e-paper with different specifications with one source, and the evaluation results of the smart bus stop implemented with prototype.

In this paper, we propose a new full reference image quality estimation method by feature maps which are intermediate layer's outputs in convolutional neural network. The novelty of the proposed method is to combine a saliency map reflecting human gaze area with the feature maps of convolutional neural network. In addition, we analyze in detail which layer's feature maps are effective for image quality estimation. Experiments using CID:IQ data set are performed on VGG16 and VGG19 which are deep neural networks for object recognition, and the results show that the image quality estimation accuracy can be significantly improved compared to the conventional method by introducing the saliency map.

In this study, we clarified how much the amount of snow accumulation, the amount of snowfall and the density, the major factors of snow, contribute to speech intelligibility using multivariate analysis. In order to measure the transfer characteristics of the snow, an impulse response measurement experiment was performed 13 times under different conditions outdoors in the snow. The measured transfer characteristics were convoluted with the test speech, and the Japanese intelligibility test was performed using these samples. Multiple regression analysis was performed using speech intelligibility as the objective variable and snow factor as explanatory variables, and the contribution rate to intelligibility was analyzed.

We propose a generalized principal motion analysis (GPMA) method for analyzing temporally evolving motions of redundant systems, such as human motions. GPMA finds base functions, which are called principal motions, that maximally separate distinctive types of motions and that weaken the effects of repeated errors within each type of motion. As an example of human motions, we measured 15 types (3 participants × 5 conditions) of sit-to-stand motions by a camera-based motion capture system. Each type of motion was repeated 10 times. We then compared GPMA and PMA in terms of their ability to classify the type of motions. GPMA correctly classified all types of motions, whereas PMA correctly classified only 81 % of them, which shows that GPMA has a better ability to classify motions.

This paper proposes a reversible data hiding scheme for medical images using Histogram Shifting. We refine the process of deriving the histogram to achieve a better hiding performance. In concrete terms, the proposed scheme obtains the histogram with a larger deviation than the conventional scheme by dividing the image into multiple blocks and calculating the difference values between adjacent pixels on a block-by-block basis, and then applies the shifting process to the histogram. Our scheme can suppress the degradation of the embedded image quality and enlarge the hiding capacity compared to the conventional scheme. The efficiency of the proposed scheme has been confirmed through our experimental results.

This paper proposes a technique that increases the lifetime of consumer electronics devices. As semiconductor technology improves in miniaturizing transistors, aging effect due to Bias Temperature Instability (BTI) has serious impact on their lifetime. BTI increases the threshold voltage of transistors and thus the delay of an electronics device also increases, resulting in failures due to timing violations. To compensate for aging-induced timing violations, this paper exploits configurable approximate computing. Assuming that target circuits have an exact and an approximate modes, they are configured to the approximate mode if an aging sensor predicts the violations. The estimation on an example circuit shows its lifetime is increased to over ten years without any additional power consumption.

In virtualization environment, the resource allocation issue is called as virtual network embedding(VNE). In the literature, prior VNE algorithms adopt ‘one fits all’ manner to serve all different VN services, requested by users. However, different VN services usually have different resource and QoS demands in the virtualization environment. Hence, it is essential to research the service oriented VNE algorithm in order to achieve the efficient resource allocation. On this basis, we study the service oriented resource allocation problem. In addition, preliminary results are illustrated in this paper.
