Due to the un-consideration of random distribution of DV-Hop algorithm in wireless sensor network, a big error caused by using of hop count between unknown and anchor nodes and the nearest anchor nodes’ average hop distance instead of the average hop distance of all the anchor nodes. An improved DV-HOP localization algorithm is proposed based on the traditional DVHOP localization algorithm aime...

many genetic disorders or possible abnormalities that may occur in the future generations can be predicted through analyzing the features of the chromosomes. for this purpose, karyotype is often used which to make it, there is necessary to identify each one of the 24 chromosomes from the microscopic images. the first step of this process is to define the morphological and band pattern based fea...

Accurate indoor person localization is essential for several services, such as assisted living. We introduce a tagless indoor person localization system based on capacitive sensing and localization algorithms that can determine the location with less than 0.2 m average error in a 3 m × 3 m room and has recall and precision better than 70%. We also discuss the effects of various noise types on t...

An improved DV-HOP localization algorithm is proposed based on the traditional DV-HOP localization algorithm in the paper. There will be a big error that using the nearest anchor node’s average hop distance instead of the average hop distance of all the anchor nodes that involved in the localizing in the traditional DV-HOP localization algorithm. Therefore, the improved algorithm introduces thr...

This paper introduces a mechanism for localizing a microphone array when the location of sound sources in the environment is known. Using the recently proposed spatial observability function (SOF) based microphone array integration technique, a maximum likelihood estimator for the correct position and orientation of the array is derived. This is used to localize and track a microphone array wit...

We describe the validation of an anatomical brain atlas approach to the analysis of diffuse optical tomography (DOT). Using MRI data from 32 subjects, we compare the diffuse optical images of simulated cortical activation reconstructed using a registered atlas with those obtained using a subject's true anatomy. The error in localization of the simulated cortical activations when using a registe...

PURPOSE To evaluate an algorithm for real-time 3D tumor localization from a single x-ray projection image for lung cancer radiotherapy. METHODS Recently, we have developed an algorithm for reconstructing volumetric images and extracting 3D tumor motion information from a single x-ray projection [Li et al., Med. Phys. 37, 2822-2826 (2010)]. We have demonstrated its feasibility using a digital ...
