It is well known that the cry sound produced by an infant conveys information concerning the infant’s health or needs. In this paper, an Hidden Markov Model (HMM) based system for classification and monitoring of infants cry is presented. Classification tests among seven infants with cleft palate, with/without a palatal plate were performed in three forms: (1) age and subject dependent (2) age ...

in this paper, an interactive model for individual normal behaviour of drivers is presented in which the mutual effect of vehicles has been incorporated. temporal features obtained from vehicles tracking and their motion history is utilized for generating a model of normal behaviour. because of non-stationarity of behaviour, hidden markov model has been used for interactive model. this model ha...

rapid expansions of new location-based services signify the need for finding accurate localization techniques for indoor environments. among different techniques, rss-based  schemes and in particular oneof its variants which is based on graph-based semi-supervised learning (g-ssl) are widely-used approaches the superiority of this scheme is that it has low setup/training cost and at the same ti...

Recognizing the activities of daily living plays an important role in healthcare. It is necessary to use an adapted model to simulate the human behavior in a domestic space to monitor the patient harmonically and to intervene in the necessary time. In this paper, we tackle this problem using the hierarchical hidden Markov model for representing and recognizing complex indoor activities. We prop...
