A number of network features is used to describe normal and intrusive traffic patterns. However the choice of features is dependent on which pattern to be detected. In order to identify which network features are more important for a particular network pattern, we propose an automated feature weighting method based on a fuzzy subspace approach to vector quantization modeling that can assign a w...

Alarm floods have always been serious hazards in industrial process monitoring since they overwhelm operators with large amount of alarm messages raised within a short period of time. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to find an optimal alignment of multiple alarm flood sequences so that based on this alignment an alarm sequence pattern can be easily found. The pattern could reveal the cor...

BACKGROUND The cacophony of alerts and alarms in a hospital produced by medical devices results in alarm fatigue. The pulse oximeter is one of the most common sources of alarms. One of the ways to reduce alarm rates is to adjust alarm settings at the bedside. This study is aimed to retrospectively examine individual pulse oximeter alarm settings on alarm rates and inter- and intra- patient vari...

-Since the late 1970s, there has been talk of home automation. Yet, as technology and services improved, so did people's expectations, which affected how they perceived automation systems. In this work, we use a modest PIR built around an Arduino controller to construct advanced electronic security system. IR sensors detect intruder's presence, interprets signal from sensors. Intruder detection...
