We propose a novel algorithm of counting indistinguishable objects by a collection of sensors. The information on multiple counting is recovered from the stochastic correlation patterns.

Aircraft Visual Identification by Neural Networks

In the present paper, an efficient method for three dimensional aircraft pattern recognition is introduced. In this method, a set of simple area based features extracted from silhouette of aerial vehicles are used to recognize an aircraft type from its optical or infrared images taken by a CCD camera or a FLIR sensor. These images can be taken from any direction and distance relative to the fly...

An Energy Efficient Clustering Method using Bat Algorithm and Mobile Sink in Wireless Sensor Networks

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of sensor nodes with limited energy. Energy efficiency is an important issue in WSNs as the sensor nodes are deployed in rugged and non-care areas and consume a lot of energy to send data to the central station or sink if they want to communicate directly with the sink. Recently, the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol is employed as a low-power, low-cost, and low rat...

Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Energy Consumption in S-MAC Protocol Using Generalized Stochastic Petri Nets

One of the features of wireless sensor networks is that the nodes in this network have limited power sources. Therefore, assessment of energy consumption in these networks is very important. What has been common practice has been the use of traditional simulators to evaluate the energy consumption of the nodes in these networks. Simulators often have problems such as fluctuating output values i...

An efficient solution for management of pre-distribution in wireless sensor networks

A sensor node is composed of different parts including processing units, sensor, transmitter, receiver, and security unit. There are many nodes in a sensor unit. These networks can be used for military, industrial, medicine, environmental, house, and many other applications. These nodes may be established in the lands of enemies to monitor the relations. Hence, it is important to consider conse...

Application of the Kalman-Bucy filter in the stochastic differential equation for the modeling of RL circuit

In this paper, we present an application of the stochastic calculusto the problem of modeling electrical networks. The filtering problem have animportant role in the theory of stochastic differential equations(SDEs). In thisarticle, we present an application of the continuous Kalman-Bucy filter for a RLcircuit. The deterministic model of the circuit is replaced by a stochastic model byadding a ...
