Prediction Accuracy of Link-Quality Estimators
نویسندگان
چکیده
The accuracy of link-quality estimators (LQE) is missioncritical in many application scenarios in wireless sensor networks (WSN), since the link-quality metric is used for routing decisions or neighborhood formation. Link-quality estimation must offer validity for different timescales. Existing LQEs describe and approximate the current quality in a single value only. This method leads to a limited accuracy and expressiveness about the presumed future behavior of a link. The LQE developed in this paper incorporates four quality metrics that give a holistic assessment of the link and its dynamic behavior; therefore, this research is an important step to achieving a higher prediction accuracy including knowledge about the shortand long-term behavior.

Link Prediction using Network Embedding based on Global Similarity
Background: The link prediction issue is one of the most widely used problems in complex network analysis. Link prediction requires knowing the background of previous link connections and combining them with available information. The link prediction local approaches with node structure objectives are fast in case of speed but are not accurate enough. On the other hand, the global link predicti...
متن کاملPrediction of RNA secondary structure using generalized centroid estimators
MOTIVATION Recent studies have shown that the methods for predicting secondary structures of RNAs on the basis of posterior decoding of the base-pairing probabilities has an advantage with respect to prediction accuracy over the conventionally utilized minimum free energy methods. However, there is room for improvement in the objective functions presented in previous studies, which are maximize...
متن کاملFractional Poisson Process
For almost two centuries, Poisson process with memoryless property of corresponding exponential distribution served as the simplest, and yet one of the most important stochastic models. On the other hand, there are many processes that exhibit long memory (e.g., network traffic and other complex systems). It would be useful if one could generalize the standard Poisson process to include these p...

متن کاملBLITZ: Wireless Link Quality Estimation in the Dark
We present BLITZ, a novel link quality estimator that relies on physicallayer synchronization errors to estimate the expected packet delivery ratio of wireless links. In contrast to all existing link quality estimators which estimate the packet delivery based on statistics from packets that are successfully decoded, our technique works even when packets at the receiver are not correctly receive...
