The present study presents a method to quantify lipids, collagen and muscle cells, to help diagnose atherosclerosis using digital image processing techniques. The relative concentrations of these three indicators are crucial in diagnosing atherosclerosis in patients. Digital image processing techniques such as object detection, color enhancement, and shape and texture analysis were used to quantify cells. The objective of the algorithm is to analyze high definition images of coronary arteries and to provide an objective outcome on the atherosclerotic tissue stage. The algorithm presented outstanding results and an innovative method to diagnose atherosclerosis when compared to existing procedures in the literature.

Autonomous motion of mobile robots is an open problem in robotics. Challenges in this regard involve the proper interpretation of the information coming from the sensors, and the adequate motion of the robot based on that information to reach a goal without collisions. In this work, we propose a framework that smoothly drives a mobile robot through a collision-free trajectory. The generation of trajectories is based on motion planning using Artificial Potential Fields and the sensed depth information from the environment. The generated path is then followed by an iterative closed-loop feedback controller based on polar coordinates which is guided by the potential field. With this framework the robot can autonomously move to a desired goal avoiding obstacles online. The framework continuously plans its trajectory, being able to avoid obstacles online. Results were obtained using a dynamic simulator and a differential-drive mobile robot that uses an onboard Lidar.

Ultra-high speed fault clearing in transmission lines is a topic that has been developing for many years. The main objective for this work is to show improve of stability of the power system and show the economic benefits through an economic dispatch that is achieved through the increase of the maximum power transfer capacity in the transmission lines, that is, it increases the capacity limit for stability in transmission lines through ultra-high speed fault clearing. For the simulation was used an electrical system as an example implemented in the software DIgSILENT and MATLAB with different events and fault clearing times from 2 cycles to 6 cycles that will compare ultra-high speed fault clearing and conventional fault clearing. These benefits allows improving the economic dispatch.

The present paper1 proposes a new method of classification with rejection for the scenario of building images recognition based on the probability vector generated by the classifier. Also, it is performed an evaluation of a set of pre-trained models of convolutional neural networks (CNN). Transfer Learning technique is used for features extraction (feature vectors), these are used to feed the classifier. Similarly, an evaluation is conducted on a set of classifiers with the objective of identifying the most optimal machine learning algorithm during the scene of buildings images recognition. The experiments are evaluated on the first version of the Cusco Building Image Dataset (CuscoBID). Finally, it is developed the second version of CuscoBID, composed of 4560 images of 14 different historical buildings, available to the entire scientific community.

We present a portable piano-tutoring system that facilitates piano learning without the spatial limitations and unaffordable cost. Our proposed system is able to simultaneously project an interactive piano on the table while displaying a music sheet with animated instruction on the smartphone. By detecting the user’s hand movements with our efficient approach, visual and sound feedbacks can be given in real time. Mr. Piano gives instructions and feedbacks that helps a beginner to learn fundamental piano skills. The user can play with demonstration, instruction, or practice mode with different level of instructions. Unlike other mobile piano-tutoring system, the key of our projected piano is equivalent in size to a standard one that makes users adjust themselves to play a actual piano better. The user evaluation shows our proposed system helps users to learn piano effectively.

Complex digital systems must necessarily be based on the "System-on-Chip – SoC" concept. A natural implementation of SoC circuit uses global clock, but in DSM technology (Deep-Sub-Micron) global clock signal causes several problems. An interesting style for SoC design that reduces the problems of the global clock is the GALS (Globally Asynchronous, Locally Synchronous) paradigm. Currently, the major drawback in the design of a GALS system, shows to be the asynchronous interface. This paper proposes a novel asynchronous wrapper based on a unique port controller aiming to the point-to-point GALS style and easily generalized to multi-point GALS systems. The proposed asynchronous wrapper allows the communication between modules to be performed in the two-phase handshake protocol, which reduces the latency time when compared to the previous ones, and it is robust with respect to essential hazard. A comparison with seven wrappers found in literature shows that the proposed wrapper leads to an average reduction in latency time of 61.1% and average reduction in area of 58% in the FPGA (Field Programmable Gated array) platform.

In this short paper, the impact of species’ geographical range refinement on the spatial distribution of irreplaceability in the Bolivian Andes was examined. Range maps were refined by species’ elevational and habitat requirements. Subsequently, the Simulated Annealing algorithm implemented in the MARXAN systematic conservation planning software was used to calculate irreplaceability throughout the Bolivian Andes using the original and refined geographical ranges. The results show that the range refinement strongly affects the spatial patterns of irreplaceability as well as the number of highly irreplaceable areas. When designing conservation policies, the variable distribution of irreplaceability induced by the use of original versus refined geographical range maps should be taken into consideration.

Millions of people worldwide die prematurely as a consequence of air pollution. Many of these deaths occur in large cities, where exhaust from cars, factories, and power plants fills the air with hazardous particles. Indoor air pollution can be higher than outdoor concentrations up to ten times due to incorrect functionality of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system. Internet of Things can help to perform a real time monitoring of indoor air quality by using embedded electronics, software, sensors, and connectivity. One approach that is gaining momentum is the Web of Things, that uses web architecture and web standards as a framework for creating IoT applications. In this paper, an IoT platform for monitoring indoor air quality is presented. The implementation is based on the Web of Things concept and uses CoAP protocol to collect data from sensors. Hardware platform developed for this project is also presented and implementation details are described.

This work presents the design of a novel 3DOF (3 Degrees of Freedom) clinostat to produce microgravity. Such a clinostat is novel because it does not contain an internal hatchery as other clinostats. This peculiarity is unique and allows this machine to produce better results in terms of a smaller microgravity generation. This 3DOF clinostat possesses a set of nonlinear dynamic equations that describe the partial accelerations of each DOF. The mean microgravity generated at the center of the clinostat can be computed using such partial accelerations. In this work, a microgravity of around 10-3 g has been achieved, which is a smaller microgravity generated by a RPM (Random Positioning Machine), which is also a clinostat. Results of this work are verified via intensive simulation studies in the form of graphs for different rotational frame speeds of the clinostat since this variable can substantially modify the desired outcomes. A smaller microgravity generator can be directly translated to a more accurate representation of true microgravity in outer space, producing a huge impact on bioengineering applications, since this clinostat allows performing outer space studies on earth with faithful results and with a minimum cost.

We attempt to estimate the Bit Error Rate BER) of a mixed network made of a classical and a Quantum-KeyDistribution-based (QKD) network, but including data traffic due to the Internet of Things. Firstly we carry out estimations of the probability of success call completion in the single case where a high user is under mobility and trying to do handover but also performing e-banking that is assumed that the end user needs reliability to carry out transactions without any risk to be hacked by eavesdroppers. It clearly needs to achieve handover using both IoT and quantum key distribution (QKD) networks resources. The simulation of BER have demanded to assume that the IoT handover and cell allocation follows a Shannon’s entropy.
